Chapter 108 26. Descending Festival, Day 1 of the Ashes Week

Orange lamps spaced equally on the ground.A decoration that mimics spider webs and dust that flickers in the breeze.Hanging on the building is a black flag and a statue in the shape of a skull is placed on the edge of the road.

They all wore black dresses and old costumes, and deliberately soiled their faces with soot and crushed fruit.Some of the children under their feet are wearing wooden faces.

October 23.The first day of the week of the Shinto Festival and Ashes.

It is a Halloween event, although somewhat different from the modern one.

"I knew this would happen...."

Lean dropped her shoulders in front of an arched gate at the entrance to Vroucher College.In front of you is a carriage without a sparkling white roof.Her outfit is also a priest inspired by pure white and heavy monk clothes.

Next to it was Cecilia, dressed like a black uniform.

Incidentally, you are not there when you check the documents, etc. while connecting the horses.

Cecilia slaps her on the shoulder to encourage depressing Lean.

"Well, this can't be helped."

"Hey you. I thought it was everyone....."

"I don't think of everyone.Because this is what the game scenario looks like, and there's no choice?

Cecilia said that with a troubled face, and Lean turned her back with her mouth shut.Are you going to say, "I know that."

Every year, it was the usual practice for Shinto to go around Argaram, the capital of the Kingdom of Prospere, in a carriage with the Holy Knight.However, this time, Lean, who is a candidate for the prince, has assumed the role in place of the priest who complained of ill health.

"I wish Cecilia could do this!I didn't get any treasure, and I didn't waste any favor!! "

"I can't help it.I'm not a priest, I'm a knight.... "

"But should Cecilia be chosen for the rules?This is not fair!

You probably don't want to, but Lean swells her cheeks with a grumpy face all the time.Cecilia can only have a bitter smile on her.

The Shinto Festival in the game was a so-called interim announcement event.In other words, until this point, the priest candidate, who has been gathered more favorable feelings of the knights, is the specification to travel around the city with the knight as a proxy for the priest.

The knights who circle together are hand-held, and each of the seven days of the "Ash Week" and the seven days of the "Ming Week" is about a candidate for priesthood one day at a time.

I'm sure it's very useful, but I was actually detained for about two or three hours, and the rest of the time was also closed at the academy, so it was totally free time.In the game, if the knights who traveled with him on that day had a high likelihood, they would be invited to a date, and if they agreed, a date event would occur.

And Cecil (Cecilia) was the knight chosen to commemorate the first day of Ash Week.

"And that dress!I didn't make those clothes!It's the costume Gilbert wore in the game!! What happened to the vampire costume!Cecil would definitely look better on that side!

"I can't help it.They told me to wear it..... "

"But I did my best to make it!

"Well, I'm sorry, right?

She lowers her head whenever she feels rough, but she is still angry with Prepli.

"This is a knight-only event, so Huey had nothing to do with it, and it was an event I didn't really like very much.But because of Cecilia's masculinity..... "

"So, I'm sorry.... how can you forgive me?

Cecilia peeks into Lean and she shamelessly dyes her cheeks and twists her thighs and fingertips together.

"Well then, I'll forgive you if you put on that dress again and let me draw a picture of your relationship with His Highness."

"That's no good."

"Why are you so quick?

"Lean, you wanted me to do that, but you would have done it for me!I'm so sorry!

For Cecilia, "dressing as a man" is "saving lives."But I truly felt sorry for the wrinkles that approached Lean's fate.....

"Of course not! Choosing the means for your purpose is a third-rate job!I will do everything I can to fulfill my purpose!

"Is that going to bother your best friend?

"I really don't want to do this, either.But you don't know what it's like to have an "ideal attack" on my best friend, do you?

I don't know, and I don't want to know.

Cecilia sighed and shook her head at Lean, who was grieving for nothing.

"Well, I don't like it anyway.I won't do anything like that in the future. "

……

"I really don't!

Lean stared at Cecilia with her half-eyed eyes for a while, but eventually she sighed her neck to give up.

"Well, that's good!Because I plan to see more adorable developments after this than tangled paintings. "

"... what are you up to?

"Night"

That's how she put her index finger on her lips, and she was a lovely heroin after all.
