236 Lesson Two: The Little Adventure of Luu's youngest brother (top)

"Hmm? What are you making a scene about?

of the settlement of Lou, at dusk.

After his work as a hunter, Rudd-Lou, who was strolling through the settlement with Plump, turned his legs to a group that was making noise in the corner of the square.

The facial rashes are Lara-Luu and Sin-Luu and Mida.

The place is in front of Sin-Lew's house.

As Rudd-Lou approached him, Lara-Lou turned back to this one with his eyebrows upside down.

"Ah, Rudd! Say something from Rudd, too! Being unscrupulous doesn't make you a fine hunter all of a sudden!?

"Uh-huh. Sin-Lu, what the hell is going on?

Apparently, it was Lara-Luu alone who was making the noise.

Sin-Luu, who lowered his brow butt the opposite of Lara-Luu, stares at Rud-Luu as he seeks salvation.

"I'm not doing anything. I was just trying to train Mida and the hunter."

"That's why! I'm telling you it's impotent to train right after the hunter's job! Supper's about to start, so rest your body for a little while!

"But......," Sin-Lu says, becoming a contemplative glance.

Rudd-Lou let me try "hmm" on the head.

"You know, usually Lara is bad, but it seems like you're worse this time around. I told you before. It's an important job for hunters to rest their bodies, right?

"Hmmm......"

"What would you do if you broke your body in training and hit bad at work tomorrow? Probably would say the same thing if my father or Lyada-Lu asked."

…………

"By and large, the more hungry Mida gets, the weaker she gets. Condition of your belly before dinner. So you just snapped your leg and you'll fall right over?

Saying, Rudd-Lou slapped Mida's blamed belly.

I just frown a little at that feeling.

"Mida, you, have you lost a little meat again?

"Yeah......? I don't know...?

Mida's blurry voice descends from an interminably high position.

He doesn't even care as much as the hairs, such as the noise he's making at his feet.

It's just - I feel a little less energetic in the crushed eyes on the meat.

Maybe he cares about his former father, who's locked up in a castle town jail.

Rud-Lew snapped "Sooka," and slapped that belly even more.

"I wonder if the fat is turning into muscles, even though it hasn't changed its appearance very much. At the next harvest festival, why can't we lose?

"Yeah......"

"Anyway, it's dangerous to mess with Mida. Win or lose, if this belly crushes you, you're going to break your bones about as easily. When you have more time, do it in perfect physical condition."

"... ok," Sin-Lu responds, becoming more and more of a contemplative eye-catcher.

"Is it also because I am an immature person that I cannot choose the right path properly that way"

"Hmm? Now what? If Sin-Lu was immature, would it mean that more than half the hunters around your age were immature?

"But I can't beat Rudd-Lou or Mida by comparison of power, and that day - I couldn't protect Asta"

"Hey, Sin-Lu -"

Lara-Lew looks so angry.

Rudd-Lou shut it up with his hands behind his back.

"Er, Sin-Lu, it's just... um, I don't know what it was"

…………

"Of course not! Yes, it's a mistake! I can't forgive myself for failing, and I want to be stronger, naturally. If you rush down the wrong path, you're gonna get stronger, but you're gonna get weaker, okay?

…………

"Even I think that day is a disgrace for life. Even if they were taking Asta hostage, I might have been able to do something about it if I was your father. I was only angry when I thought about it, so even I think I need to be stronger.... If you're going the wrong way, I'm gonna be strong on my own?

"Hey! Just think about how Sin-Lu feels! Isn't there some more way to put it?

and now Lara-Luu has turned his angry eyes to Rud-Luu.

"You're a pain in the ass... aren't you that angry and tired?

"Because you do all the things that piss me off!

"I didn't do anything. Troubleshooting me, I'll give you guys a wedding.... Oh, but is Lara still thirteen? Wow, this is gonna last another two years."

Lara-Luu has been waving his fist around.

With that in mind, Rudd-Lou turns around behind Mida.

"What, you guys are giving you a wedding anyway, right? You don't want to choose someone else as your partner now, do you?

"Shut up! Silly Rudd! Don't just say good things!

Lara-Luu is following him intransigently, so he was going to go round and round, centering on Mida, who stands pounding.

Staring at it, Sin-Luu has a red face no less than Lara-Luu.

"You come on! I've always been a tease about people, but what about me! You're 15 now, so you can marry your wife, right?

Eventually Lara-Luu, who gave up the pursuit, said so with some breath.

"What am I? Are you saying there are women who want to marry me?

"I'm not asking around, I'm asking how you feel about yourself! You have so many families, you have one or two girls you care about, don't you?

"Hmm, the kind of person who turns his face bright red about the browned out. Yes, no."

Fist strikes again.

Avoiding that, even Sin-Lu raised his voice.

"But it is also true that Lew's main house is worried about his family if the wedding is too late. Maybe it's Vina-Lou or Dalm-Lou's fault, but Rudd-Lou won't be human resources anymore, will he?

"Doesn't it matter what? The one who says he left it alone will stick. You guys know that best."

It is Sin-Luu and Lara-Luu who make their faces red.

There, there was a shadow coming a little closer from across the square.

"Ah, Rudd-Lou, you were here. Supper's about to start, isn't it?

"Is that it? You're Morn-Rutim. What are you doing up to this hour?

"I've been here all day to train. So we're gonna rent the main bedroom like this."

Morn-Rutim is the youngest sister of Rutim's main house.

She's a little like her father. She's a round-bodied daughter, and she's fifteen years old, just like Rud-Lew. She was a gentle lady with a charming, loving smile.

"Heh, you're in a lot of mood."

"Yeah, you know, if the Lew family were to get the stall business back on track, me and Ama Min were to take turns helping with that. Until then, I decided to let you study at Lew's main house."

Today is the second day of the ash month. It's time to finish the dinner party in Castle Town and wait for the outlaws lurking in a town like Behett to be captured. Once those outlaws are captured and the immediate danger is averted, they plan to significantly resume business.

"I see. So, what's for dinner tonight? Asta's thinking about a lot of new dishes again, isn't she?

"Ugh. That'll be fun when you get home."

"Oh well. Then let's go home! Sin-Lu, Mida, see you tomorrow."

"Oh."

"Yeah......"

"Lara, you don't really bother Sin-Lu's house, do you?

"Shut up!... Morn-Rutim, I'll be back that way at night, right?

"Yeah. We'll talk a lot in the bedroom."

That's how Rudd-Lou was taken with Morn-Ruttim to return to Rudd's main house.

Asta and Ai-Fa will still remain in the settlement of Luu, and Sheila-Lu will participate in dinner instead of Lara-Luu. When I even joined Morn-Rutim there, it seemed kind of like a little feast, and Rud-Ruw felt like fun.

"... Lara-Luu and Sin-Luu seem as close as ever, don't they?

"Uh, right. I guess the day after Lara turns 15, we're giving her a wedding."

"That's an exaggeration," Morn-Rutim smiles.

The face was all shaded at the next moment.

As I walked down the square, I said, "What's going on?," Rudd-Lou asked.

"Huh? What?

"You look like you're going to miss me now."

"Oh, I don't think so,"

"You don't have to. Even the men you like?

Morn-Rutim turned bright red, no less than Lara-Rue just now.

"Duh, how can we be talking about the men there?

"'Cause you're the arrowhead who was talking about Lara and the others. Isn't that what you normally think?

"... Rudd-Lou, you look at people so often, even though it feels so blurry"

"What the hell. Even if you're blurry, you'll get into your eyes."

"Yeah. I think that's a great thing. And you can be very nice to me."

Haven't Morn-Rutim seen the sight of Rudd-Lou being chased around by his sister earlier?

Anyway, Morn-Rutim was starting to get very serious eye-catching with a very red face.

"Oh, you know, I need to talk to Rud-Lew!

"Whoa, I'll talk to you about anything."

"I'm serious, can you seriously listen to me?

"I'm serious, too. Morn-Rutim is an important family member, and I've been familiar with him since I was a little girl."

Rudd-Lou stopped his leg and turned back to Morn-Rutim.

Morn-Rutim gets annoyed with his mojo.

"It's me... I think I've got a man I care about."

"Oh, I know that one."

"But I don't know what to do... this is definitely going to be annoying for them..."

"That's not true. If it was Morn-Rutim, anyone would want it for their wife."

"Oh, that's not true. I'm just like Dad Dan."

"You don't look so much like anything else. When you get angry, you look just like me."

…………

"But isn't it good to be angry only when you should be? That's worse to piss me off. He said if he was smiling, he'd be so cute, no one would hate his dowry."

"... isn't that annoying...?

It's not annoying.

To Rudd-Lou's words, Morn-Rutim looked up beside himself.

"Well, I'll tell you what... Rud-Lew would be absolutely amazed, wouldn't he?

"I'm not surprised. If you don't like it, say it."

…………

Morn-Rutim whispered something to you.

"Hmm?," Rudd-Lou said, turning his face.

".................. it's M"

"I can't hear you. What did you say?

"... it's Dick-Dom"

Even though he declared that he was not surprised, Rudd-Lou was to open his eyes properly.

"Um? Dick-Dom wasn't an old man about our father?

"That's not true! Rud-Lu 'Cause you and Dick-Dom are face-to-face!?

Dick-Dom and I have been accompanied as escorts on the day of the talks.

The rest, even at the Conference of Parents, should be slightly face-to-face - whatever, all I had was the impression of a deeply worn Gibba skull, underneath which were glitchy, burning black eyes, and scratchy succeeding hands and feet.

"Um, I can't really remember.... but where did Morn-Rutim meet Dick-Dom face-to-face?

"Well, it's the day of the meeting with the nobles. That day, Dan, Dad and Brother Gazlan were both supposed to leave the settlement, so all of Rutim's humans were supposed to gather in the settlement of Lou, right? I just exchanged a few words then."

"... did that just make you like it?

"Yeah...... is that crazy?

"Hmm," Rudd-Lou thinks.

Certainly not many people by the woods may be distracted by their opponents with one eye.

As far as Rudd-Lou was concerned, her sister Vina-Lou and Raina-Lou also looked a lot more distracted by Asta the day we met.

"Well, maybe there's nothing strange about it. It's like Gibbs sometimes starts making kids on the spot we meet."

"... don't go with Giva."

"Yeah, but now I know why Morn-Rutim's worried. Whatever Lew's family is, it's gonna be a lot of trouble for the other Chiefs."

"Yeah... and they're Dom's parents, and I'm Rutim's youngest sister... they're both people in the main house, and they're second only to their parents, Luu and Zaza, so yeah, you can't imitate them on your own..."

With that said, Morn-Rutim took a deep sigh.

Ah, I've eaten up all the meat, Dan-Lutim. But I may not look sad so far.

Rudd-Lou decided to think "hmm" again.

but Morn-Rutim comes up with a more rushed voice before coming up with a noticeable word.

"Um, thank you, Rud-Lew. It just made me feel a little easier to listen to you."

"Huh? You haven't solved anything."

"Yeah, but it's impossible from the start.... Dom and Rutim won't face each other in the first place, and they won't be able to tie the edges."

"Then why don't we talk to Gazran-Rutim? He's good at these little hard stories."

"Yeah. I think these stories just get Brother Gazlan in trouble"

That's what Morn-Rutim said in a strangely clear tone.

Well, for sure, if you were good at this kind of story, you might not have even bothered to be single and worry about your surroundings until you were 23.

"So that's okay. I don't think I'm gonna feel like anyone's wife for a while, 'cause I'm sure I'll settle in one of these days."

With that said, Morn-Rutim smiled as loud as usual.

"Thanks for listening. Come on, I've kept everyone waiting, so let's hurry back to the house?

Running towards a house that is a black shadow beyond the dim. Staring at that small, round hindsight, Rudd-Lou went "hmm" again.

◇

The day after that.

Rud-Luu was running Luluu toward Dom's settlement.

There was gibberish all over the trap today, so it took me a long time to get the job done.

It's a pleasure to have a lot of harvest, but forest grace hasn't grown that far yet near Luu's settlement. This is how we come to the less fruitful woods with all the poor gibberish or hungry gibberish who have lost an approximate territorial battle, all wounded or thin all in all. With so little fat, it was hard to finish it deliciously, etc., and Asta held her head in.

(Kamadoku has a lot of hard work, too.)

Run Lulu with that in mind.

I was able to run my way to the crackle and Lulu seemed to be kind of happy.

I like the wind blowing too much with the bubbles.

Sometimes strangers will be surprised.

Rudd-Lou loved running Totos.

It makes me feel like Lulu came to the settlement and hasn't even had a full moon yet, but he's been running Totos like this for a long time.

There is a theory that the people of the woods are people born with the south and east people who met in the woods before they were still hostile, and that the people of the east are a clan that runs the meadows in Totos.

So to the blood of the people by the woods, Asta said something delightful, wondering if the memories of when she was running in the meadows were asleep - etc.

Whatever it is, Rud-Lew likes to run Totos.

If only I had time, I'd like to be on Totos more.

(I was wondering if I'd buy my own tototoss like Rau-Ray did too)

Ahead, in genuinely engaging in business in the Accommodation Town, the Lew family had set up a calculation for buying luggage cars.

It will always be inexcusable to sweeten Asta's generosity and entrust her with carrying the load.

But then, Lulu will stay in the boarding town all day, unable to perform tasks such as urgent transmission.

Then I also felt like I could put another totoss in the settlement of Luu.

(Why don't you talk to your father tomorrow)

Passing the house of a little nostalgic Fa, passing through an unnamed clan settlement, and finally too through a Sung family settlement - so when the sun was about to set to the west, I finally saw the most endless, northern settlement.

One diameter by the woods, which has lasted a long time, ends here.

Exactly the end of the North.

Rudd-Lou squeezed Lulu's reins, loosening his gait and proceeding inside the settlement.

Time is time, so no one wanders outside.

but as soon as I approached the house in front of me, a straw and a black figure popped out of the inside.

The hunters of Zaza or Jean, wearing Gibba's fur from their heads.

"... who is it?

"I'm Ruh-Ruh, my youngest brother in the main house, and I've got some errands to do in Dom's settlement."

"Lew's main house...... is there an emergency?

"No, it looks like Genos is the same. I came here today on my own business. Of course, don't worry, I'm not selling fights to the North clan."

Then a huge figure appeared from inside the house.

My upper back isn't, but my lateral width is huge. If there was no mistake in Rudd-Lou's memory, this should have been the head of the Gene main house.

"The youngest brother of the Lew family? That's horrible.... What do you mean, run errands to the Dom family?

"No, I need to talk to Dick-Dom for a second. I have my father's approval."

Gene's parents shut up for a while before pointing their fingers in the western direction.

"Dom's settlement lies ahead of us following the trail there. I'll lend you a candlestick even at this hour."

"Thank you. Thank you"

In a time when the Sung family was a chieftaincy, it would have been absolutely impossible, for example, to step into the depths of northern settlements in this way. Not to mention if I knew I was from the Lou family, etc., I might have been slapped without question.

It's kind of a strange story.

Since Asta showed up by the woods, different common sense was to be turned upside down.

Surprisingly, the meal became delicious, the Sung family was doomed, and the new Trinity gave its name as the chieftaincy - and the Lew family was set to do business in the Inn Town.

No one would have believed it, even if someone prophesied that such a future would come before Asta showed up.

I suppose this is as much a time of dramatic change for the people by the woods as it was 80 years ago when we defined Morga as our second home.

Rudd-Lou was delighted from the bottom of his heart to be born in such a delightful time.

(Compared to that, how cute is Dom and Rutim's wedding?)

With that in mind, take the candlestick you borrowed from the Gene family and go down the road.

The slightly heavier footprint of Lulu is probably due to the perceived signs of different creatures in the woods.

I can't feel any sign of a beast as big as Gibba's, but a big snake called the Son of Madarama, or a rotten clam mund or something, may be blinding their eyes in search of prey.

(You're covering up the settlement in a lot of noise)

Now the women who work on the edge of the woods won't be distracted either.

As a forest folk, it is the northern clan that puts itself in the most harsh raw - so maybe this is the part.

While I was doing this, I could see the lights on my way.

It's Dom's settlement.

In a space that's not even that big, all five houses line up to lean against each other.

In doing so, he proceeded to the front of the house, which seemed to be the biggest, and Rudd-Roo jumped off Rudd-Roo.

And slap the wooden doorboards hard.

"Sorry for the night! It's Ruh-Ruh, the youngest brother of Ruh's main house! Dom's parents, Dick-Dom, had some errands to run and he came!

Shin - and a painful silence returns.

I tried to tap it again, or I raised my hand, and the doorboard opened.

"You said the youngest brother of Lew's main house. What can I do for our parents?

Wow, and Rudd-Lou is about to glance.

It was some sort of fierce sign of women.

Is your age a little higher than Rudd-Lou's?

He is tall with a groan. Looks like half the head is bigger than Rud-Lu.

Plus, my chest and buttocks are huge, and I have solid muscles on my arms and feet, even though something around my hips is stunningly creepy. If you put it just on the outside, it was more like a familiar look to the term female hunter than an eye-fa.

"Um, talk about it, it's gonna be a long time. I had a hunter's job, so I'm late at night, but I've got some souvenirs for you, so I was wondering if my parents could catch me up?

"Yeah... but this is supper coming up."

"Oh, I'm ready for what I eat, so it's useless to notice"

"... that's not what I'm saying"

Put your arms together and I'll be looking down at Rudd-Lou's face. At the tip of it, the ornament of Gibba's bare bone, which was wrapped around her waist, rang in a razor.

Long black hair is tied high, with slightly raised eyes, high nose and thick lips of meat completely revealed. Beautiful and colorful, but he still looked as rough as a man in temper.

(... no matter how colorful you are, I don't want to welcome so many mind-blowing women to my wife)

Thinking about the loss of courtesy, etc., I heard a creaking man from the back.

"What are you doing, Rem? If you're sorry, you can come through here."

The brave and beautiful looking women pull back as they shrug their shoulders.

"Well, I'll keep the knife.... You must really be from the Lew family, huh?

"You lied to me. Do you mind if I let Totos in the front door, too?

"Go ahead," said Rem-Dom, the Dom woman, with a really troublesome eye.

Rudd-Lou, who deposited the knife and the knife, went up to the entrance with Lulu and closed the doorboard.

"Ruh's youngest brother, Ruh-Ruh? What's going on at night like this?

In the hall, Dick-Dom, clad in the upper seat, waited alone.

With a leather bag with souvenirs and meals in his hand, Rud-Lew calms his hips in the lower seat.

"Hey, I need to talk to you.... By the way, what happened to the other families?

"Only this lem is my family."

"Huh? It's the main house, but it's just the two of us?

"There are fifteen of Dom's blood clans. Of course, only me and my sister, Rem, will be in this house."

Fifteen people would be exactly the same number as the Rays.

But - it was too surprising a fact that there were only two families in Dom's main house, known for their bravery.

"Diga and Dodd are being looked after in a manly split house.... So? What the hell is running errands on this Dom instead of the parent Zaza?

In an agura position with one knee up, Dick-Dom quietly stares back at Rudd-Lou.

Quiet, but with very strong light eyes.

Rudd-Lou was able to clearly check its face for the first time because he had removed the sculpture.

Sure, maybe it's not that magnificent. He has a scratchy face, but he's not wearing a mustache, and he's surprisingly neat around his nostrils, etc.

but the mandible and the like are squared with disappointment, and the wounds engraved on both cheeks are still bitter.

Her hair and eyes are black, just like her sister's, and her hands and feet have an unusual muscle buzz. He is the owner of a giant body that surpasses his father, Donda-Lou and Graf-Zaza.

It's probably just a lot smaller than Ji-Mayam, the biggest man in Luu's family - but the signs of power that could come from it far outweighed Ji-Mayam.

(Maybe... instead of Ji-Mayam, he's about stronger than Graf-Zaza)

That means that he is comparable to his father, Donda-Lou - so powerful that he may not even be himself.

The quail and the area around the spine became swollen.

(When I get a chance, let me compare my powers.)

With that in mind, Rud-Lew pulled the leather bag in hand.

"Before you do, I'll give you a souvenir first. It's not funny, but I've got fruit liquor and dried meat."

I'd love to split Asta's dishes if it were true, but it would go against the Forestside lesson to mouth an extra kamado-made dinner. Though the northern clan should have many stone heads that weigh the ancient lumps, so I thought you would need to be careful there.

Fruit liquor and dried meat?

"Oh. The Lew family is proud of their dried meat."

Let the two fruit liquors and a chunk of dried meat be served to Rem-Dom, who was in front.

After making sure the parents nodded, Lem-Dom received it.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your supper, so listen to me while you eat if you like. I'll feed you the meal I brought with me."

There was an iron pan on the corner to the right of the hall, and from there it smelled like a nostalgic Poitan broth.

Confirming the parents' intentions again, Lem-Dom approaches you.

With that sidelined, Rudd-Lou also decided to pull his meal out of the leather bag.

Wrapped in gonumoki leaves.

Unwrapping the cranberry and spreading it, roasted Poitan dough appeared from inside.

If you're not careful, your cheeks are going to loosen up.

Asta even gave it to me, and it was just a dish called Kokosandu.

"When the stall business can resume, I'm going to add him to the dedication. Let me know what you think later, if you like."

Asta said so, but it had been decided before she ate thoughts and such.

What is stuck in this Poitan dough is the 'tempura' of giva meat and chacci, which Rudd-Lou thinks is the best in the world.

A sneak peek inside the fabric reveals the appearance of "Kokoro" wrapped in brown fuwano clothes.

"Kokoke" is painted with "So-su" made of tau oil, and between the Poitan dough and "Kokoke", the leaves of the cobbled Tino are also scratched.

Furthermore, the leather bag also contained a deep dish that was still sealed with Gonumoki leaves.

If you try opening the contents with care not to spill them, you will find a dish prepared with stir-fried giva meat, aria and chacci.

"I think the flavor will go away when it cools down, but it's just 'croquette sandwich'. Then it's not nutritious enough."

In the dish dish dishes, Aria was used exactly.

The smell of myrmu and tau oil makes me hungry more and more.

I couldn't wait for Lem-Dom to come back with the wood dishes while I arranged those dishes at my feet.

"... thank you for the grace of the forest and give thanks to Lem-Dom for setting the fire and gaining life tonight..."

Dick-Dom's heavy voice echoes across the lazy hall.

Again, it seems that this poitan juice was created by Lem-Dom alone.

Well, if it's an amount for both of us, I don't know what kind of work it is.

I feel like I saw it and it seems like it's just the same juice that was made in the Lew family before, simmering meat, aria and poitan. There were also various vegetables added there on a daily basis at the Lou family, but I don't see any of those.

"Thank you for the blessings of the forest and give thanks to Asta of the house of Fa, who stood by the fire, to gain life tonight"

To the voice of Rudd-Lou's ritual, Dick-Dom moved his eyebrows tingly.

"He's the youngest brother of the Lew family. Shouldn't a meal be eaten in the same house as your number?

"Hmm? It's a lesson to show that you're prepared to keep your life at Kamadu's turn and that Kamadu's turn is ready to keep your life, right? Wouldn't it be so important if that were the place to eat?"

Since Asta also cared about that point, Rudd-Lou was ready to talk about his own feelings.

"I'm ready for both me and Asta. If my life or soul is tarnished with this meal, it is Asta's responsibility, and I have the trust that it will never happen. You heard the vow to the woods, so there's nothing wrong with that, right?

It wasn't even a very convincing breeze, but Dick-Dom put his hands on his plate silently.

Lem-Dom, too, laughs on one cheek and becomes it.

(I wonder how hard my future is)

While sneaking his shoulders, Rud-Lew grabbed hold of "Kokosandu".

Poitan fabrics and fuwano clothes are getting a lot soaked up.

Soft chatches and chopped giva meat are slightly cooler than human body temperature.

But - still, "Kokono-san" was delicious.

"Well, I know a hundred freshly made things taste better, but in my hometown, there was a way to eat them cold like this."

And so on, Asta said.

Indeed, the saggy feel of Fuwano's clothes has almost been lost.

but that coat, smudged with tau oil 'so-su', was moist and soft enough to give Rud-Lu enough satisfaction while being as if it were a different toothfeel.

The one called 'So-su' is quite flavorful, so eating it with a barely flavorful poiton or tino seems to go very well with it.

And most importantly, the chatch is delicious after all.

I wonder why I like chatching so much, and Rudd-Lou originally taunted 'Kokosandu' while I raised an unrestrained question in the corner of my head.

"Kokonozando" is ready for another wrap according to the amount of supper.

I couldn't wait to be happy and happy.

"... hey, what are you laughing at, the youngest brother of the Lew family?

And, Lem-Dom calls to Urunge.

"Huh? Me, were you laughing? Yeah, the meal's so delicious, I guess my cheeks got loose."

"Hmm... that's the one from Fa's house called 'A Delicious Meal'"

After rinsing the white thickened poitan juice, Lem-Dom laughs once again on one cheek.

"The only people who have ever spoken of it in Zaza's family are those who participated in the Parents' Council and the rest are the din who are ready for the South, right? I'd like to say someday what a great substitute it is."

"Then why don't you head out to Luu's settlement?"

In the meantime, it was a topic that also passed on to the Rudd-Lou affair.

"Hey, Dick-Dom. I'd like you to hear this because it's nothing more than a pompous story in Luu than the words of my father himself, the chief. Aren't you North clans willing to learn the art of cooking delicious meals?

Dick-Dom has stared back at Rudd-Lou with his strong, glowing eyes.

While spreading the wrap of the new 'Kokosandu', Rud-Luu makes the words overlap even more.

"I think Asta's cooking has a lot of power. Eating the dishes Asta makes is more powerful than ever. It's not just about Lou's family, it's about Dali-Souti and Fou and Sudra."

"… the story is also heard from the chief Graf-Zaza"

"Oh, really?... So, I'm just going to need a little training to cook delicious food, but if it's about the first blood drain and then about how to bake Poitan, it's enough to be remembered the day I learned. Far away from home, Sauti is trained to lend his family to each other for a while."

"... so you think the northern settlements should do the same?

"Oh. Lending each other the same number of family members wouldn't be inconvenient about other jobs, would it? Apart from talking about whether you agree or disagree with the business of Fa and Lew's house, I think this is a powerful story for the people by the woods."

Dick-Dom silently offered the wood dish to Rem-Dom.

The contents must have been emptied. Lem-Dom, who was half-laughing and listening to Rudd-Lou, pulls into which way as he shrugs his shoulders.

Speaking of which, this house is covered in the same building.

The size of the house may also be as close to a fa as it is to a lu.

"As for the value of a delicious meal, it has also been eliminated in the northern settlements"

"Hmm, really?

"Din's parents made an offer. I was wondering if you would allow Din's family to help with the business to make sure Fa's house was correct. … so the next time there was a wedding or harvest feast, Fa's family was invited to learn how to make a meal and keep the kamado"

The Din family...

Speaking of which, the daughter of Sung's family who met at the Parents' Conference moved into a family home called Din, and I think Asta was making a story like that into Lara-Luu.

"I see. So if you're convinced, are you going to learn how to bleed and cook?

"I'm not talking about that. It's just a matter of deciding whether or not to allow the Din family to get any more involved in the Fa family. … but maybe ChieftainGraf-Zaza has an idea further ahead"

One emotionally unreadable Dick-Dom's eyes narrow so that he sees something watermarked, just glowing strong.

"Um, a dinner party in Luu's settlement that Zulo-Sung and others were invited to do. It seems that at dinner that night, Graf-Zaza was somehow disturbed.... and he didn't say so, but he said he was eaten amazing things, etc."

"Oh, that dinner was amazing that day! For me, it was the best supper of my life! I'm just saying that for now, dinner in Castle Town three days ago was an unbeatable feast."

"... I made the heart of ChieftainGraf-Zaza so noisy that I guess there's something worth considering about what you guys call a delicious meal. I've touched that power a little bit at the Parents' Conference, and I can imagine that."

So Dick-Dom said, after rinsing the newly poured poitan juice.

"So... why did you bring such a story to me, the youngest brother of the Lew family? Weren't you supposed to knock on the door of the Zaza family, not the Dom family?

"Hmm? You'd better get the Chiefs to discuss this with the Chiefs, wouldn't you? I wanted to hear from you, my family. We were just talking."

"What's the story?

"Yeah, I just wanted to know who you are, Dick-Dom."

Rud-Lew also picked up a dish of aria and chacci before searching for the next word to throw.

I guess freshly cooked food over here tastes many times better, etc., while I speak.

"Before we do that, one question. How old the hell are you?

"... I'm seventeen."

"Ju, Ju? You're only gonna be the same as me!

"My eldest brother, me, was to take over that seat because my predecessor's parents decayed into the woods just two years ago. What does that mean?

"No, um, it's a big deal to have a parent at that young age.... Oh well, you're the same age as Lau Ray or Asta or Eye Fa or something..."

Speaking of which, both Rau-Ray and Ai-Fa belong to the same parent.

Rau-Ray in particular was the head of the main house of the Ray family, which is about the same size as the Dom family.

(Ma, Ai-Fa or Sin-Lu with less help from their families might be in a tougher position in that sense)

Anyway, the story from here was important.

"Speaking of which, I just talked to you about the wedding feast, but don't you have a story for yourself? If you're the head of the main house and you're 17, it's time to get stuck around, right?

"Stick, don't get stuck. My daughter-in-law, etc. would be enough to marry by eighteen. If someone doesn't show up by then, they'll just welcome the like-minded son-in-law."

Saying off in pain, Dick-Dom grabbed Rudd-Lou's brought fruit liquor.

"Thank you for your generosity over the Lew family.... I was just out of fruit liquor, so I appreciated this concern"

"Oh, it's a long way from the north settlement to town, so we were talking about a hard time buying one out."

"That's right. It's been a lot easier since I got Totos."

Dick-Dom poured fruit liquor on his father, Donda-Lou, with unbeatable momentum.

This is going to get two fruit liquors and other drinks in no time.

"However, the circumstances that could not be decided lightly with regard to the dowry also lifted. Once again, we have a number of families that must be connected to blood."

"Huh? What does that mean?

"Until now, our parental muscle has been the Sung family. We used the Sung family as a source of blood. From there, when we abolish the Sung family in the centre, we will be able to create a family that has no blood edge at all.... The Din and Lid families in the South, for example, had no blood ties at all to the northern clan because they only had blood ties in the form of offering wives and sons to the Sung family"

I see, and Rudd-Lou was to hit the knee.

Even the Lew family is not directly connected to the blood of all six families. Little families such as Lilyn and Maam are just recognized as family members because they overlap with Ray, Rutim and Minn, among others, on the brink of blood.

But also, Ray and Rutim have long had Luu's blood in them, so none of the families have any blood edges, etc., etc.

but in the case of the Sung family, there was a wide beard of blood from north to south, which probably also leads to the fact that blood does not cross at all in its northernmost and southernmost parts.

The Sung family, in particular, said they had not given daughter-in-law or son-in-law to their families for the past decade in order to hide the sin that they had been vandalizing the Morga Forest.

Then, outside Sung's settlement, there will be no blood exchange between the families.

"Hmm...... so you're going to welcome your wife from Din or Lid?

"It is not so stipulated. However, if we don't find someone by 18, I guess that's how it's gonna be stipulated."

"You're obsessed with eighteen. Is it a Northern settlement lesson to welcome your wife or son-in-law by eighteen?

"... a lesson, or not marrying a partner after 15 years of being recognized as a single hunter, if you are doing your job of giving strong blood?

That's why I didn't know where that period of three years came from, but it did feel like around 18 or 19 was the border to get the wedding stuck in Luu's settlement as well.

(Well, Gazran-Rutim didn't take his daughter-in-law until 23, and my Vina sister is already 20)

Whatever it is, I've got the information I need.

One more thing that bothers me.

"So you're already seventeen, right? How soon will you be 18?

"... I just turned 17 last month"

Then there will still be more than ten months left.

Finally Rudd-Lou was able to take a breath.

"So, what do you want to know about me?

He put down another wooden dish that seems to have been emptied, and Dick-Dom has been riding himself out for a long time.

Drink down the twitchy 'Kokosandu' and then Rud-Lu makes you laugh.

"Oh, that's enough. I could have known what I wanted to know. You sound like a fine hunter, Dick-Dom."

"... I don't know what you're talking about."

"It means exactly what I'm saying. The exterior looks vicious to Graph-Zaza, but he talks about everything bluntly, and his attitude is honest. If you're bigotry, my brothers would be better off.... Still, your powers as a hunter seem outrageous, and yeah, I don't think a good hunter like you is even around these woods?

"... it's not impressive to call a chief vicious or anything."

"Oh, I didn't say it in a bad way. If you're vicious, my father didn't lose, and in the first place, I respect Graf-Zaza as a hunter."

This man named Dick-Dom is surely also just a human being whose heart Morn-Rutim is drawn to.

I could just feel it, enough for Rud-Lew.

"My story is over. I'm sorry I softened up your supper time. It's good to talk to you today, Dick-Dom."

"... I don't know what you're talking about, but you're not going back to the Luu settlement like this, you're the youngest brother of the Luu family."

"Huh? Of course I'm going home? If it was Totos, it wouldn't take that long."

"Don't let the fool out. The road at night, whether dangerous or not?

"'Cause it's okay. Totos won't be caught up by Gibbs or Mundt, and it's not dangerous."

"So which is more dangerous in the morning or at night?

Dick-Dom has insisted on being strong.

"To return such a dangerous path would be a disgrace to Dom's house. You're not going to embarrass the Dom family, you're the youngest brother of the Lew family."

"No, but..."

"Rem, get your bedding ready in your empty room. Clean up the guest's steel in my room."

"... Copy that, Parent."

He may be an honest and powerful fine hunter, but I guess this friendly fortitude should be counted as either a beauty or a flaw, Rudd-Lou decided to take a small sigh of sigh.
