70 ② Beginning of the feast

"Bring the stew to the square! Hot, so be careful!

After that, it was already a very soft fuss.

The two protagonists were led up to Yarakura, built directly in front of the main house, and it seems that around Dan-Rutim began to greet the start of the feast, but they are no longer loose in hearing the words. At the same time that this greeting is over, we must have a meal so that we can eat the food.

First is the placement of the stew.

Set the four iron pans on fire over low heat by placing them as evenly as possible on the ten simple kamados installed in a circular fashion.

Then, on the remaining six kagos, put on a water pan for insulation, cook which fire is not too strong, place a large split plate instead of the table, and arrange the steak and vegetable stir-fry there.

Steaks, first and foremost, are momomo and loin.

The women refrain from all kamadoku, and ask them to concentrate on the meals first.

I'm sorry, but there's nothing else for the ladies to enjoy eating in turns.

And the women with disgusting faces - at least, as far as I can tell, didn't exist alone.

The women, who refrained on the platform of the steak, lay a grilled poiton firmly in their hands, and hand it with them to him who came to fetch the meat. "This is Poitan," he said.

The women who refrained from stewing are, of course, stew-popping clerks. "This juice is one cup each," he said.

Eat as much boiled or baked in a pan as you like. Would this be a cramped way to do it, since that would have been the feast so far?

But I didn't think it was enough to just cook or boil the odorless meat.

I wanted to bring greater joy.

There is no other way to pray that the deliciousness of the dishes will blow away the cramps.

It was my job to fly around to houses everywhere already and give directions, so after that I wasn't sure which ladies were where anymore.

Ai-Fa, who was only following me, also went somewhere when Grandma Tito Min called me.

But I'm not loose looking for it with my eyes.

"Now, let the feast begin - heh!

I heard Dan-Rutim's stupid big voice from Yarakura.

"Bless the Gazran-Rutim of the Rutim family, Ama-Min of the Min family!

"Bless you!" The voice is summoned by more than a hundred families.

A firewood tower stacked in the center of the square lit the ritual fire.

The pedestal, built in outfits surrounding the square, was also littered with pine lights, scattering the evening.

Filled with a different orange glow than the sun that began to set in the forest landscape.

And they took in their hands, and the vessels, and the golden skewers.

"Drink a lot, eat it! Blessings also to the women of my parent Luu for their dedication for this day!

Too loud a shout is causing Dan-Rutim's voice to crack to pieces.

Let the voice guide them, and they gripped a bottle of fruit liquor, and - grabbed the flesh that was put on the leaves of the rubber nokimodo.

White, sturdy teeth, bite off the meat.

There's even a stew poured into a wood plate.

A roasted poiton is carried to his mouth by surprise.

I couldn't confirm what look they had on their face - I flew from house to house.

"Next up is the abalone meat in this house! Are you ready?

"It's okay. The first meat gets annoyed all the time."

An old man from the branch who still can't remember his name is laughing lavishly.

"Looks like we should leave now. My daughters, if you wanted to eat, you'd be nagging."

And my old man lifted three splitting plates with seven spare ribs on one at the same time, with arms thicker than that of me.

"I'll take turns. - Isn't that Shichi really excellent, you?

"Oh, have you been eaten yet?

"It's important to eat there. He was the only one who came back in a hurry. The other ladies will be back soon, so why don't you just keep it in your stomach?

"I'll be fine later. Please."

"Aye," said the old man, leaving.

Soon afterwards, he said, "Look, this is Gibba's flesh! Look at the brave ones! I hear a shout."

I guess I was right to thoroughly back it up.

Leftovers like me show up on the table to help improve the taste of the dish.

"Sorry! It's late! We'll carry the rest soon, too!

And, dressed in beautiful feast outfits, I knew there were a few unnamed women jumping in between.

"The first suki is all gone now. There are only a few SHICHIU left!

"Then next time, it's soup. All right, thanks!

The person in charge of the soup is Sin-Lu's house and the house next door.

First of all, when I jumped into Sin-Lu's house, Sheila-Lu was alone in which turn.

"Is that it? One? What about your mother?"

"I'm going to eat Shichi right now. I've had it first."

and Sheila-Lou smiles in a hazy way.

"The food named that shichi-chu is really delicious.... somehow I was about to cry"

"Really? Even at Sheila-Lou's wedding feast, make sure you make it"

Then Sheila-Lou looked a little chopped up and shook his head.

"I am born and weak. That's why I couldn't even dowry to this age. Because the women who can't carry one water bottle are only the troublemakers of the house."

"That's not true! I can't carry a water bottle, but I can carry an iron pan, right? With all that arm strength, you can do enough."

I was probably in a bit of a manic state, and I even got a wink there.

"Besides, Sheila-Lou's cooking was brilliant. You will surely be a bride who can cook delicious dishes. I won't leave such an attractive woman alone with the men to come, I'm sure."

"Well......" Sheila-Lou's cheeks turn red.

There, her mother came back.

"Sounds like Shichi is losing it. Sheila, it's our turn."

"Yes."

A daughter-in-law with a laid-back mother carries an iron pot with a grigi stick.

With that on my side, I headed to the next house.

The rest of the soup pan should all be in this house.

So when I stepped in, the pan of three soups was carried for a long time, and instead the iron pan with the wreckage of the stew was put on top of it without a fire.

And - while it was wide there, there was one woman who stumbled.

It's Vina-Lou.

"Asta......?

Those slightly lowered, colorful eyes of the eye open as a surprise.

Vina-Lou was also, after all, dressed in a feast outfit.

Wear a translucent veil over your head and wrap the same thin objects around your hips - more ornaments on your hair, hands and feet that were originally decorated more beautifully than the rest of the house ladies.

The long chestnut hair, usually tied together in one with the right shoulder, is also loosened and the colour is doubled.

But I can't even keep up with her color tricks all day.

"You've already carried this one, haven't you? Well, I have a job to do."

And I try to return the blemishes.

On its back, he said, "Wait!," Vina-Lou shouted.

It is the first time that Vina-Lou has ever shouted.

Exactly. I'll stop and look back at you, too.

Vina-Lou...

He blushed his shoulders like a child and was getting depressed.

"Asta... are you mad...?

"Huh? What?

"I... spilled Aria's soup..."

"Oh, is that what you mean? It's okay. The new soup was just in time. I'm glad you didn't burn more than that."

"... you're not mad...?

I'll keep my eyes peeled.

This person is very difficult to handle because it is difficult to know how far he or she is acting and how serious he or she is.

"I'm not mad at you.... than that, enjoy the feast. Vina-Lou was a stew caterer, wasn't he? Then you won't have a job for a while, will you?

"The feast, I hate.... because all kinds of men will apply for dowry..."

Dowry, shouldn't you?

But I just wanted to say that, but it's going to be confusing, so I'm going to stop.

"Well, I have work to do..."

"Wait!

Again, loud.

Vina-Lou twisted his body, trying to hold both his arms.

"Um... I'm the woman who tried to dump the house... but it's not like I hate my family..."

"Yes?"

What the hell are you talking about?

Come on, I want to head to the next scene.

"Rather, I love my family... there's not one person I hate... I wish everyone would be happy..."

"Um, what the hell are you talking about?

"I don't want to hate my family..."

And I was supposed to be surprised three times.

Vina-Lou, who held his own arm, knelt down in that position and looked up to me to plead.

"If I'm an ai-fa, fine... if I'm an ai-fa, I can hate you... if you're tied to an ai-fa, I can tempt you and make you impotent..."

"No, so what the hell are you talking about!

"I don't want to hate Raina."

In a clear tone sometime, Vina-Lou said so.

"Just stop being tied to Raina... I don't want to hate my family..."

I don't know what it is.

Fortunately, however, I was able to respond to Vina-Lou's plea without having to falsify my heart.

"I don't know what you're worried about, but there's not going to be such a bright future, never"

And now it's time for me to give it back.

"Well, excuse me. Please follow the steps for the last gesture."

Why should I be responsible for such a single stick of mourning?

Throw away Vina-Lou, who looked so serious and sad at no time, and I'm headed to the next scene.

Is the guilt that arises in this chest also within the price?

I don't have time to abandon my job and be comforting Vina-Lou.

Then - I'll swallow all these feelings, too!

With that in mind, I run through the outer perimeter of the square.

At some point the sun sank completely, and the world was lit orange only by flames.

At this distance, people can only be seen in black silhouettes, too.

The facial expressions, etc. are not visible at all.

But the heat is tremendous.

There was so much enthusiasm and vitality among the people by the woods that they could not beat the lit ritual fire.

What a blinding world.

What a vivid world.

Try to get your back pushed by that awesome vitality and I'll run.

The next scene is the home of a remote Lou.

The bride and groom sit quietly on the yara arranged in its front.

Under Yagura, Dan-Rutim, with a spare rib in his hands, was laughing ridiculously.

There's nothing wrong with this only silhouette.

"You guys, aren't you going to eat? If you're not eating, I'm gonna eat all of this!?

For God's sake, feed the people who want to eat properly, and remember, I'm going for a small run.

The next dish is hamburger.

"Ah, it's Asta! I've finally seen you!

In the meantime, nearly ten women were holding back.

Until now, he has enjoyed the feast and is the guard unit from which he is going to get to work.

So, its member Rimi-Lou, near the entrance, stood in his hand with two spare ribs.

"Eh heh. Dan-Lutim's Mane"

"Here. If you ate a lot, not just that dad, but even Limi-Lu, you'd lose everyone else's share, wouldn't you? The truth is, one bottle at a time."

"That's why I chose the little one!... Still, no?

I'll slap Rimi-Lou on the head, pounding him like a puppy.

"Forgive me because I'm cute. That costume is so cute."

"Really? Be happy!

Even the young ladies are no stranger to banquet costumes. Wearing a bug-colored veil and various hair and arm decorations, Rimi-Lou was exceptionally cute without complaint.

In particular, the large, red flower decorations attached around both temples were very impressive and looked great on Rimi-Lou, who had slightly reddish hair.

"Speaking of which, didn't you see Ai-Fa? I haven't seen him since the feast started."

"Ai-fa? Didn't Lady Tito Min call you?

"The oldest called, so I just told him that. I haven't even seen it since."

Grandma Tito Min was also part of this Hamburg unit.

So, where did my belly and only guerrilla trooper, Ai-Fa, hide in the clouds?

"Well, if you're a woman hunter at Fa's house, I just saw you carrying her."

And the woman, who was supposed to be the daughter-in-law of Donda-Lou's second brother's son, spoke to me that way.

"Really? Thank you."

If you're able to play without my instructions, that's fine.

I'm just starting to feel the quickest way to run around myself like this, too.

"Well. Looks like Hamburg's turn is fast approaching. That means the other half of the dish will have been digested...... something isn't unfolding fast?

"Because your food is delicious, it's gone from next to next!

"Well, maybe half of them are eaten by Rutim's general. Hey."

An elderly woman laughs delightfully.

I'd love to laugh too, but I can't even look like I hate you.

"When this hamburger is over, all you have to do is have one more serving of steak, right? Is this possible, really, that there could be additions?

"It's possible. I mean, it really doesn't seem like it's enough at all. Eating and eating reasonably well for both men and women. Meat fitting over there. Come on."

A happy scream is this?

Worst of all, if you don't cook enough, you're supposed to have an extra hand cooking the meat, but there's no extra preparation for the vegetables or poitains.

"Okay. Then if you serve me a hamburger, I'll cut the meat already. I'll dilute it a little and make sure you can just cook it over high heat"

"Yes. Well, let's get going."

Under the quiet decree of Grandma Tito Min, an earthen bottle filled with more than a hundred hamburgers and fruit liquor sauces is carried away.

"Ah, Rimi-Lou. I wish I could spare your hand, could you just check on Vina-Lou for a second? 'Cause I think I'm in the house where I left three soups."

"Sister Vina?... Ah, my sister Vina says it's a feast and she drinks a lot of alcohol. Okay! I'll take Rimi-Lou's Hanba-gu for you!

"Thanks. Nice to meet you."

As a result, the hamburger was unloaded at the hands of the guard unit, causing cancer for a long time.

All that's left is some of the last steaks offered.

I moved them over which lid to keep them warm, and then I drank the water with the pattern.

The body is quite tired.

But the mind is exalted.

I'm a little worried about Vina-Lou, but other than that - it's going extremely well.

I don't know what look the folks by the woods are eating the food with, but from the look on the women's faces, you won't have to worry about it.

The big incident is not happening.

My job is just another one.

I, um, did a big nagging and then headed to the pantry to carry some extra meat.

(I wonder if Rud-Luu or Sin-Luu are enjoying it too. I hope Ai-Fa hasn't eaten up the stew either)

Take the candlestick that was listed at the entrance and step into the food bin.

The meat storage room is further afield.

This vegetable storage area was also used as a place to temporarily store cooked dishes, so the shelves have been pushed against the wall.

And there are hardly any more vegetables left on that shelf.

There are just a few days of aria and poitan, plus a few vegetables left that weren't used in this dedication.

Apparently, these ingredient costs will be broken in half at Luu and Rutim.

Will this strengthen their bond, or will it even be done in the ditch? There are still many mysteries about the humanity of Donda-Lou and Giza -Lou, so I don't know.

But - I just get to do my job.

With that in mind, I turned to the meat storage room.

Then.

The doorboard that had been left open was shut with a sound.

"Huh?" he looked back at my chest, a small, soft object jumping at me.

That was very small and soft, but very powerful.

So I fell straight off my back.

Still, I would have been a lot lucky not to have dropped the candlestick.

The candlestick is lit by fire.

It was Raina-Lou's, face with the look that came to mind.
