Chapter 146

It seems that I immediately got tired of making me puffy, and Gilvester’s finger movement stopped. However, instead of getting bored, it seemed that interest had just shifted to another.

“… what is this?”

At the same time, Gilvester pulled out my bag.

Eh? When I thought, my hair fell off. When I looked up, Gilvester, with a ritual jar that the family made for me, looked at the jar and the jar with interest.

Jilvester looks like an adult in his late twenties, but what he does is the same as an elementary school boy who doesn’t know what he is doing. At the moment I thought so, the word “broken” came to my mind. I suddenly feel blood.

“Return me?”

I reached out my hand. In my voice, Gilvester squinted like a Cheshire cat. Raise your hand out of reach to me, and shake the spilling green leaf decoration from between the fingers. I don’t feel like returning it.

“Look, take it.”

“Please return!”

Hunting for Jillvester, who raises and lowers his hands, jumps out of the way, and he is short of breath.

“I’m returning and saying … my niece. My niece made by Turi with my dad and mother.”

Gaze at the heel in the high position and hold your fist. At the same time, I found out that mysterious power was spreading throughout my body.

…… I hate these boys.

“Wow! Miko apprentice!”

Dermuel’s voice resonates.

The turning chief and Karstedt lifted their eyes, took out the shining tact and sprinkled it quickly.

“This idiot! You would have said you weren’t messing around!”

“Don’t imitate your child!”

Spapan! , And a sizzling sound burst at the head of Gilvester at the same time. I like the tact that shines in front of me 笏 ( Shaku ) I was surprised and sighed by the struck Jilvester.

“Isn’t it necessary to get angry with them? Isn’t it just a little fun?”

Jilvester seems not to be punished at all, but when the limit is reached, he finds out that the priest and Karstedt will praise him, and the anger that hit the whole body goes away.

The priest quickly recovered the spear from the hands of Gilvester and returned it to me.

“Mine, can you fix it yourself?”

“Yes, thank you, the chief priest”

I quickly shave my hair together. Gilvester, who looked at it interestingly, tried to reach his hand again.

“Kurera!”

Karsted dismissed Basil and Gilvester and pointed to Dermuel, who was black and white.

“It’s better to play with Dermuel, not Mine. It’s sturdy.”

”The priest said,“ Yes, play with Dermuel over there. Mine is over here, ”and shake hands.

And when the head of the prisoner held me aside and returned to the office, he resumed the meeting with Karstedt. The two who completely ignored the fact that Damuel raised a compassionate voice saying “Gya! Please stop!” Looked into the map and decided the directions quickly.

I exclaimed on the map spread on the desk. It was more detailed than the map I saw before in the commercial guild.

The map I saw in the commercial guild was only the name of the city and the road, so this is the first map that shows the shape and topography of the territory. The territory has a long north-south shape, and is colored red and blue according to some standard. The area around the city is mostly red, and blue increases with distance.

…… What standards are used for color coding?

I wanted to ask, but I thought it would be intrusive if I asked two people who were talking seriously above me, and I was looking at the map silently.

“… Fum, this is good”

“Let’s start!”

“Dermuel, pick up Maine. Gilvester has this. Karsted is this.”

When the opinions are gathered between the two people, they will immediately head to the noble gate. Carsted and Gilvester, who had a large baggage, left the room and I was picked up by Darmell.

I secretly asked Dermuel.

“Darmuel, I want you to keep a distance from that priest, if possible.”

“I really want to do that”

Opinions with Dermuel agreed. Watch out for Jilvester and keep a little distance away. Jilvester is a blue priest, but when he sees Dermuel’s attitude, his family power seems to be overwhelmingly higher than Dermuel.

“Do n’t you stay a little?”

If you get angry, it might be like Sikikoza, so I’m trying to keep some distance, but the other side is coming.

“Oh, I’m just afraid”

Saying so, I look for someone who seems to manage Jilvester. Karsted has gone first and cannot see.

Talking over Dermuel’s shoulders as the priest who chased his absence to serve the surviving side, I extended my hand and asked for help.

“Principal …”

In my heartless voice, the priestess held down the temple and sighed.

“Jilvester, don’t get too close to Mine. Even though the prayer ceremony hasn’t started, it’s troublesome later if Mine becomes unstable.”

“Is it too weak to become unstable at this level?”

Jilvester pounces my cheek with his index finger, probably because he is picked up by Dermuel. The chief patrolled the hand lightly and chilled and sang Gilles Star.

“Oh, yes. Mine is fragile, frail and cumbersome. Don’t let me say it again and again”

Karsted, who was going to open the aristocratic gate, waited in the square where the gate passed.

When the Priest, Karsted, and Dermuel cast out a magic stone cavalry, the Priest gives instructions.

“Carsted takes the lead, and Me and Jilvester go behind, with Mine and Dermuel in between.

Dermuel, who did not protect him at all while being messed up by Jilvester, seems very unreliable as an escort. To be honest, it was better to share with the priest.

“Do you seem to be frustrated, apprenticeess?”

“Dermuel didn’t protect me from Gilvester”

“Oh, that is …”

Dermuel, who said something, just stopped for a moment. After scrutinizing whether it was okay to say, sighed.

“… I’m sorry”

Dermuel’s beast is Tenma. I was on my back, and Dermuel sat behind me and grabbed the reins. When Barisari and Tenma spread their wings, the Karsted Griffon that flew away chased away.

rushing over the downtown area and crossing the outer wall, Griffon Madoki began to descend immediately.

Perhaps it is said to be the winter pavilion in the rural area closest to the South Gate, where the neighbors of our house are taking care of pork processing. It’s like a large wooden building like an old elementary school, and a plaza like a playground.

You can see from the top that a large number of people are gathering in a rural plaza. There seemed to be about a thousand people. When we try to get down to the square, people open up the place as they push each other, leaving no one in the middle.

First, Karsted slowly descended on the spot and erased the beast. Dermuel’s Tenma descends gently there. Karsted took me down and at the same time Dermuel slipped down, Tenma disappeared.

“Retreat!”

The priest ’s lion comes down from the sky with the voice of Jilvester. Looking up while being held up by Karsted, a few steps down, a blue thing jumped out from the top of the lion with a short shout of “Hatsu!”

“Now !?”

“Wow !?”

Suddenly in front of the crowd, the blue shadow turned around several times in the air, then decided to pose and got off.

“Oh!”

The excitement of seeing a spectacle, like the momentum of Jilvester, spreads in the square in an instant, and the quirks spawn in Jilvester who has decided to pose.

“That idiot is floating too much …”

At the same time as the biting voice leaked from Karstedt’s mouth, the priestess’s lion, who seemed to have the intention of crushing Gilvester, ran down.

However, with a quick and acrobatic body, Gilvester jumps off the spot and decides on a pose again.

“Oh, oh!”

After grabbing applause, the satisfied Gilles Star is a boy who wants to show what he can do.

“… is the Spring Prayer Ceremony an event in which the priest shows art to the people?”

I was stunned by the presence of Jilvester, which is similar to the blue priest I know.

“Mine, you don’t need to see it because it isn’t helpful. Rather, you should never use it as a model.”

“Since Karstedt knows and treats me cheaply, Jilvester is a very high nobleman, right? I am also demanding unreasonable things like Sikikoza-sama.

How can I respond to an opponent who is not allowed any objection and who feels like the current person in the mood?

“Oh, no, it’s not a violent man. You can rest assured, but there are a lot of unreasonable things that can hurt you.”

“… Is it okay to cry if I make an unreasonable request to Mr. Jilvester? Adopter ( Father [ 19459027] ) ?]

When I ask with my head tilted, Karsted laughs with a rounded eye, then raises the edge of his lips.

“Okay, come crying. Let the bad guys cry with Ferdinand-sama’s custody.”

…… Rely on my future foster father.

After I secretly secured the protection of Karstedt, the chief erased the lion and started walking toward a place like a small stage in front of the square.

Along with the movement of the chief priest, the human wave suddenly breaks, and the road to the stage is straight. A large Holy Grail, about 80 cm high, is taken out of the baggage that Gilles Star was carrying, and it is held in the back and continues behind the priest.

“Look, go!”

Callusted, who once defeated me after saying that, when I observed my walking speed for a few seconds, he immediately held it back. And it begins to follow the priests with large crotch.

…… I am late because there is a difference in leg length.

After moving down to the stage, Karsted and Darmuel stand in front of the stage and engulf the people.

A large golden holy grail, a sacred item, was handed over from Zilvester to the priest, and placed on a large stand in the center of the stage by the priest.

“From here, start a prayer ceremony. Each village head, go up.”

Along with the call of the chief priest, five people with a lid of a 10-liter bucket with a lid come up on the stage.

“Mine, that’s where it comes in”

“Yes, Priest”

I couldn’t reach the Holy Grail while standing, and I was lifted up by the priest and climbed to the table where the Holy Grail was placed. I walked forward with my knees on the table with red cloth.

The Holy Grail placed on the table is shaped like a wine glass, with a large magic stone in the round bowl, and a complex sculpture and small devil from the stem to the plate. Stones are lined up.

I sat down on the table, touched the small magic stone on the plate, and looked down.

“The goddess of water that brings healing and change, twelve goddesses who serve the side of the god of life, liberating from Evilive, the god of life, giving her the power to nurture a new life to Gedrulich, the goddess of earth.

My magic power flows into the Holy Grail and radiates a golden light. There was a roaring voice from the people of the square.

“The song of delight that devotes itself to the body, prayers and gratitude, and gives you a pure blessing, and fills you with everything in the land that is wide and wide,”

When I finished the prayer, the priest and Gilvester gently tilted the Holy Grail. From the Holy Grail, a green glowing liquid flows out and is poured into the village chiefs in order.

“The Earth Goddess, Gedrulich and the Goddess of Water, Pray and thank Fruthrene!”

When a trap was filled and the lid was capped, a part of the square began to shout in prayer to God. Probably the villagers of the Sakai who were satisfied. When the next trap is fulfilled, more people will say more prayer and gratitude.

â € ¢ I kept flowing magical power, taking care not to leave my hands on the plate until the five traps were filled.

“Mine, it’s good”

I released my hand to the voice of the priest. The tilted Holy Grail is put back to its original position, and I am picked up by the priest and taken down to the stage.

I, who had been practicing magic for a long time, stood in the center, and behind that half step, the priestess and Gilvester stood.

“Pray to God!”

In response to the voice of the priest, I gave a prayer and the people in the square also gave a prayer. For rural people, this is a prayer that they are accustomed to every year. Compared to the people in the downtown area, prayers are taken for granted.

“This is the end of the prayer ceremony. Follow God’s will and live properly with new life!”

As people cheered on the words of the chief priest, Gilvester quickly wrapped the Holy Grail in a cloth, packed it in a bag, and then carried it as luggage.

The next moment, the chief priest took out a magic stone knight and jumped with Jillvester.

“This time we have a lot of plans, so head next. Then God bless you”

A white lion goes around the square, sprinkling gold dust. Meanwhile, Karstedt and Darmuel also put out beasts. I am held by Dermuel and ride Tenma. Tenma, who moved his wings and wings, ran up to the sky and left the village.

After that, when I went to about four rural winter pavilions and finished each prayer ceremony, the sun was already falling and I was relaxed.

“After that, just go to the accommodation. Apprentice shrine maiden, have a good consciousness. I will fall.”

While scolding by Dermuel, I grabbed the reins and squeezed them.

“Mine, get up”

“Fuh !?”

When the consciousness returned to the voice of the chief priest, I was in front of a large mansion.

“Where are you here?”

“The Summer Hall of Baron Bron”

The aristocrat, who was entrusted with the management of the village by the lord, spent time at the land in a rural area from the prayer ceremony to the harvest festival, and went to the town of the lord in winter to report and pay taxes for one year. It seems that they will do their best to gather information between nobility.

“And this is the place for the priests to stay”

Since the priests are to visit every year during the prayer ceremony and the harvest festival, the aristocratic pavilion that keeps the village in the territory is prepared as a place for the priests to stay.

Even if you are from a noble class, it can be said that it is strictly a building to keep priests who are not noble. For the proof, if the representative goes to the arrival greeting, there is no need to go through.

“This time Arnaud should say hello and have you open”

As the priest said, there were many carriages at the distance. It can be seen that the carriage that should have been loaded with a large amount of luggage is galant, and that everything is carried inside.

“Please come home”

When we opened the door and entered inside, the side servants were ready. There were a lot of strange faces, but they are probably Jilvester’s side servings.

Arnaud, who came out alone, called out to the priest.

“I want to prepare my meal, but there are only two cafeterias. Would you like it?”

“Everyone should eat in the larger cafeteria, but can you keep Mine and Gilvester’s seats away?”

“I’m smart”

In the rural areas that have just finished wintering, there is not enough food to prepare all the meals, including side dishes, so some vegetables, eggs, and milk can be sold, but grains, oils, etc. You have to bring some. This is why the remaining priests do not want to go to the prayer ceremony.

“Let’s get ready and gather in the cafeteria”

Along with the voice of the priest, each follower heads to the Lord.

Rosina and Franc came to me quickly. Looking at their faces, I exhale relievedly.

“Please come back, Maine. First of all, let’s have a meal.”

I was guided to a room arranged by two people.

Since the priests move about two people, it seems that there were only three rooms for the priests even in case of unexpected situations. The gorgeous room, Karstedt, and Gilvester are supposed to use this luxurious room this time, and as a result of their identity, Darmuel and I seem to have been assigned a room usually used by his followers.

“Maybe it’s hard for Darmell. I’m bigger than my house, but I’m fine.”

My room will go down, but I have no inconvenience. We are satisfied with the carpets and sheets we have brought in.

franc brings hot water to the bowl, so I take a bath with Rosina. I was outside all day, so it was pretty refreshing when I used hot water.

Rosina chooses a light green-colored outfit for dinner and puts on cloth shoes with a gorgeous decoration just tailored. Rosina chose a handmade floret cocoon made by Turi this winter from several cocoons prepared for the prayer ceremony. Yellow, orange and yellowish green florets look like rape blossoms to me. Spring color.

“Fugo and Ella were preparing their meals, saying they couldn’t lose to the other chefs”

“Now I must do my best”

The dinner where the aristocratic class gathers is only a matter of concern for me.

Rosina and Fran manners have been beaten during the winter, but perhaps how much can be done by the commoner, Karsted, who will be adoptive father, will give a strict assessment. .

Then, another concern is that Gilles Star. I’m afraid of not knowing what he says. It can be ignored for elementary school boys, but it cannot be completely ignored because the opponent is from a high nobility.

“Isn’t it good to go down to the room when you’re finished?”

“… If you are invited to a post-meal meeting, I can’t refuse you in the position of Mine.”

…… Oh, I have a bad feeling.

Meals were served in a large canteen. Everyone is getting dressed. It is precious plain clothes of the priest who has only seen blue priesthood and full armor. It’s a relaxed outfit based on dark green cuffs that look like an aristocrat.

Jilvester may be the same in terms of a priest, but I didn’t think that wearing plain clothes was precious because he had never met before.

“If you wear such clothes, you really can’t tell them from a noble daughter”

Karsted looked at me and looked lightly and said so. I am sure that this has been praised.

“Excuse me, Karsted”

“The work has been refined considerably during the winter. The feelings are completely visible, but still need improvement …”

The priestess basically gives up compliments and improvements at the same time, so he doesn’t feel like he was praised.

“Mine, please come here”

franc has a seat and waits. Gilvester shouted when I saw the dish that was in front of me.

“Why is it different only for you?”

“Isn’t it because the chef is different? Francs, do you understand?”

Franc screamed and explained the situation.

Of the two kitchens, the narrower one was given to Fugo and Ella, and it seems that meals for nobility were made in the larger one. I think that it is a reasonable arrangement considering the number of followers.

“Since the kitchen is different only for me, it seems to me that considering the number of people, it would be reasonable for my cook to use the smaller kitchen.”

I was able to eat what I was used to, so there was no problem at all, but it was troublesome for the farthest seat, Gilvester, to see this with great interest.

“Do not smell good”

“My cook is very good at it”

Talking about that, all the meals were ready, so cross your hands in front of your chest and give your prayers.

“Thanks for prayers and praises to the gods, the supreme god that governs the sky as a high-ranked bower, blessed with thousands of lives. I’ll have this meal “

The moment I ate a bite, “Nuu! I don’t understand what I mean, I lean my head.

“Why? Why?”

“Jilvester was interested in Mine’s meal. Did you say it smells good?”

The priest lightly gave up his shoulder. Apparently, Jilvester’s words seemed to be a detouring reminder unique to the aristocrat, letting it come. I did not notice at all.

“I can’t give you everything. Half is fine.”

“Has it been half?”

gilvester looked at me like seeing incredible things. This is what I can’t believe.

“This is my meal. No way, is the aristocratic blue priest, Gilvester, trying to imitate all the meals of poor commoners?”

“Well, there’s no way …”

After all, Gilvester, who seemed unable to keep curiosity, wanted half this. Apparently, even though it was handed over to the side service, it did not hang half with someone.

The priest and Karsted hold the temple and sigh as if they were amazed.

Later, the priest told me that it was correct to wait for Zilvester to give you his dish instead, if desired. Half this is incorrect. It was ugly.

I stand up, thanking the priest for leaving the seat.

“Okay, I’m sorry, but please relax slowly on your side”

greeted the men who were going to a post-meal meeting, and when they tried to return to the room, they were swallowed by Gilvester who looked at their prey. Looking at me with dark green eyes, beckoning to come here.

“Wait, mine. Come on. Let’s talk carefully about the exchange of cooks.”

…… Huh, I haven’t given up yet.
