77 ~ First day ~ ① Guardian visit (top)

For me, the longest day and the most accomplished, of the wedding feast of Gazran-Rutim and Ama-Min, the next day.

We went back to Fa's house a little past Jomtien.

Working from morning to night, besides barely eating anything but a stumbling block during cooking, I literally ran out of soul and fell asleep until the sun rose so high.

It's a very painful big chombo for me to believe in getting up early before I came to this other world.

When I woke up in a hurry and popped out of the house, the simplified Kamadu Yarakura and lighting platforms in the Great Square were already completely cleaned up, and the peaceful scene of the usual street just spread out there to the point where I thought last night's feast and all that was an overnight dream.

"... is it finally happening, Asta," said Ey-Fa, who was stuck in the square, walking over.

When I heard it, they were finishing the feast at the festival this morning in general.

Not only are they from the settlement of Lou, but they are all six families, except Rutim, without men or women, but with literal total reckoning.

I really wanted to join you and see how hard it was with everyone.

"There was no curtain for your impotence. Did you even want to wash it in a pot with the women?

and is a mean parent in the morning.

That's why we headed to Luu's main house, received the sword we had deposited and the price from the Lutim family, greeted Grandma Ziva and her parents Donda-Lu, and left Luu's settlement behind.

The only ones who dropped me off were Rud-Luu and Limi-Luu and Sati Ray-Luu and Kota-Lu held in their arms.

The other women were in the woods for the collection of firewood and pico leaves, and the men did not come out of their rooms.

"That's right. If you come up with another delicious way to eat Giva, why don't you tell me?

"Hey again! Now I'm going to visit Fa's house too!

"Good luck. I look forward to seeing you next day."

"Abou."

For me, it was a separation from Luu's makeshift, which spanned six days with a feast.

Now I may not even see them for a while. Not only did I get to interact with the people in the main house, but I also got to interact with people in the branches such as Sin-Lu and Sheila-Lu, and there was a small feeling of loneliness sprouting in my chest.

"But well, I wouldn't miss you if I had an eye-fa!

On the road, when I shouted my thoughts out loud, they kicked me in the foot.

That's how it took me an hour, and when I got home for the first time in six days - there was already a man with a golden brown head, a long cape, waiting for me.

◇

"Hey, you look good and most importantly, Asta to Ai-Fa"

Slim as a kamakiri.

Blonde brown hair, beardless.

Elongated face, elongated nose. Face with lower eyeballs and always looks like laughing.

Innocent as a child, calm as an old man, strange purple eyes.

It's Camua-Josh.

This is my third face-to-face meeting with Camua-Josh, who names "Guardian".

"You really came, didn't you? Well, I wanted to talk to you properly, so I appreciate it."

"I would be very grateful if you could say thank you. Beautiful hunters are in a good mood."

…………

"Don't shatter the mood of our parents. … If you want to talk in the house, you will keep the knife."

"Heh. Is that the custom of the forest people? Nice. Nice. I can't stop laughing just because I imagine how much my curiosity will be satisfied today alone."

Speaking softly, Camua-Josh has given each sheath of leather a long knife on his hips for nothing.

It's a lot longer than the barbaric knife used by the woods, but its thin and thin, so there's no big difference in weight.

What is this - a knife to cut?

"... go ahead"

Ey-fa, me, knocking around the doorboards in the order of the guests.

Ai-Fa took off his fur cloak as usual and hung it on the wall, but placed the hipster's knife in his place.

And line up in the upper seat with one knee around it.

I sit down next to it and put the Guest's knife on hand the same way.

Camua-Josh sits fluffy as he is, not even trying to take off his cape.

Well - what should I tell you from?

"First thing I want to say. I don't want to be aggressively hostile to the Chieftain Sung family."

And this one didn't have to think about it, but it was suddenly uttered from the other side that it would be core.

"So I beg your pardon for being hostile to the people of the woods as people pulling bows. This is how I've come to visit you because I'd rather get along with the people of the woods. Would you believe that?

Ai-Fa is silent.

I don't know what to do with that silence, Camua smiles with a big smile.

"I was in too much of a hurry to talk then. I guess I finally got a chance to interact with the forestside people I've been interested in for a long time, and since that was what was a beautiful woman like I-Fa, I stuck ahead. Please forgive me."

Still, Ai-Fa was faceless.

It's also the second time it's been face-to-face for Ai-Fa, and this time I've been able to feel better in advance, so maybe there's some loose ends I can recieve if it's a little light.

As long as it is perfectly comforting.

But it's my role to exchange words with this man and explore the inside of it.

"Okay, I'll ask you. What is your purpose, Camua-Josh?

"You can camouflage it.... What is the purpose?

"It's what I came all this way to see us, even though I was at work. No way, it's not just for public speaking, is it?

"No, I was coming here to talk to the public."

Camus, round his eyes properly.

Seriously, you old man.

"I've always had a sense of companionship with the people by the woods. But that's my one-sided sentiment, an unidentified exotic to you. It would naturally be impossible to have ears to listen where such opponents were told what Forestside discipline is about the decadence of the chieftaincy muscles. That's why I've been stretching my legs because I want to interact with you first."

Thus Camua also removed the earthen bottle of fruit liquor from the inside of the long cape.

"This guy is just a souvenir. Drink it at night.... oh poisonous poison," he sips deliciously again.

"Mm-hmm. But after all, I don't think you're the answer to my question. I have no idea why or why I want to interact with the people of the woods."

"Yeah? Do you need a reason or a purpose for wanting to get along?... if I dare say so, my empathy for the feathered condition of transferring the god I worship and my respect for the lonely standing behavior of the forestside people I see in the lodging town, and then my personal interest and fondness for Asta and Ai-Fa. I think that's the only three principles of my actions."

He is an old man with a good tongue.

And even though the road is extremely neat, the expression and tone are faint.

"But by welcoming you home like this, you're interested in me, aren't you? Because the people in town have indiscriminate feelings of awe. Hey. Does it mean that people like me who come all the way to the woods were hard to silence after all?

"Thank you for speaking up to this sentiment. … Speaking of which, did you decide to talk to the Sung family about wanting them to pass this settlement at work?"

"Oh, yeah. Reflect on whether if you just jump over the Sung family and take the story to the rest of the people, you will crush their faces and become a spark that will cause unwanted commotion"

"You've spoken so well. He said he had such a way of interacting with the people in the main house."

"Yeah. I firmly named myself, but nothing went wrong. That's a deep nostalgia, even if it rots."

and is a mule who laughs a lot.

This kind of look - I'm sorry to say it, but I can't trust you.

"By the way, we're still a long way from that job being dared. He's a pretty big business association and takes a lot of work to prepare, and, besides, he's the ones who grab the edge. It's the fifteenth day of the month, so if you count from today, you'll still have more than twenty days."

"Ha..."

"So, it takes all the moon to get out to the eastern kingdom and come back again. That's why I wanted to keep the edge as close as possible during all the last twenty days. Thanks for being accepted without rejecting a nagging man like me, Asta to Ai-Fa"

"Well, we haven't had a long-term friendship yet."

"There is no value in such an easy bond. It is only through the bonds that we have overcome so many difficulties that we will be able to endure for so long."

Perhaps it would be a very nice word if you only listened to the verbal aspect. After all, it's thin somewhere.

Now I was thinking a little bit about what was going on, and "Guru" went belly ringing.

Eye-Fa's eyes, staring at Camus still, look at me chilly.

Are you hungry? Speaking of which, it came unclear even during a meal by the woods. If it's a meal stamp, I'd like you to start eating without me. "

"No, I don't eat that much during the day. Hey, I missed my meal last night..."

"That's not good! Asta is so thin, you should eat well."

Though I didn't want a man as long as you to tell me. Perhaps the reason this Mitsujin looks thin is because he's too tall.

I'm not sure because of the cape. The skeleton was solid from the wrist that stuck out of it, and if there was no mistake in my eyes - my fingers felt so long and my palms so thick that I couldn't beat Giza-Lou or Dalm-Lou.

"It's still about past Jomtien now, isn't it? Hmmm...... honestly, I feel like spending only dried meat until dusk. Ai-Fa, can I have just a little meat and aria?

"Do as you please," he told me, so I decided to head to the pantry.

but if I did it and the camoule that sparkled my eyes would call me "Um, hey".

"Meat is possibly Giva's meat? If so, wouldn't you be able to feed me just a little bit?

At that moment, a crack ran into the faceless expression of Ey-Fa, who until then had kept it cold.

"The inhabitants of the Stone Capital eat the meat of Gibba?

"Yeah? Is something wrong? The only people who are imprinted with fear by Giva and the people by the woods are, by and large, the native Genos people, right?

And, Camua laughs happily and less.

"On the contrary, Genos, to me, who was not originally even born in the Kingdom of the West, is just a vicious beast, such as Gibba, and the people by the woods are just brave hunters hunting for it. Travelers from the south and east wandering around the lodging town won't look in awe at you, either, will they? Nothing surprises me."

That being said, I don't even know which is the people of the east and which is the people of the south.

It's just - I had the impression that a lot of people with yellowbrown skin feared and despised EY-FA.

"Still, no human or other person has ever eaten Gibba's meat except the people by the woods. I don't know about the south or east, but at least in the western part of the country, there doesn't seem to be any other beasts named Giva besides Morga's woodland. If I can give you the honor of eating Gibba's meat for the first time as a people of the West Capital, it's worth it!

It's kind of really making my eyes shine like a child.

Ai-Fa - still couldn't hide the look of confusion.

I guess it is still a shocking development for the forestside people who have been discriminated against as' giva eaters' for eighty years.

"What do we do, Ai-Fa? You're the head of the family. I'll follow your lead."

When I got to my mid back and asked, I suddenly grabbed my chest.

I get a mouth in my ear with the momentum of being almost bitten while I'm about to fall.

"To me - I can't judge. What do you think, Asta?

Even though it was so close, it was a hissing voice, whether I could hear it or not.

I never want the man in front of me to ask, you thought.

I let myself go in surprise - and I was even more surprised to see Ai-Fa's face.

Only his expression remained cold and frizzy, his blue eyes staring at me anxiously feeling younger than Limi-Lu's.

Was it so - shocking?

I'll use my body as a shield to hide that face from my guests, while similarly putting my mouth to my ear.

"If you don't touch the contraindications by the woods, I don't think it's okay. Why don't you just sift through the meat and aria to thank me for the souvenir fruit liquor?

Again, I can attract a lot of chest rubs.

"... leave it to Asta's discretion"

It's hitting me. My lips are hitting my earlobes, My Lord Parent.

I looked back at my guests and nodded back to Eagle Deep.

"I'd like to sift through the meat because I've had the pardon of my parents. You can also thank me for the fruit liquor, so I won't say a bite, but I'll sift the amount you like."

"Now, in the same amount as Asta!

Somehow, it was like an old dog with a big figure waving his tail happily.

But this could be a good opportunity.

Eating the same thing, even though it opens the chest collar, would still be an effective means.

I hope this makes the inside of this nagging man look a little better, but I headed to the pantry, thinking about it.

In the meantime, Ai-Fa closed her eyelids quietly and didn't even try to answer any of the peppery talking men.
