277 Twenty-sixth Day of the Black Moon • - Feast

Thus the sun fell, and the birthday feast became a carriage that was rarely held.

"Dan-Rutim, the head of my Rutim, was to be 41 years older today. It is an unmistakable joy for those of us who are bloodthirsty that parents have been able to live healthy for so long."

The son of Dan-Rutim, Gazran-Rutim, calls out in a glorious voice to his compatriots who are lit by a burning fire.

"From now on, parents will guide us with their great power. Tonight I would like to celebrate that my parents, Dan-Rutim, have had a healthy year and to show that gratitude to Mother Forest.... to the Parent Dan-Rutim, bless you"

"Bless you!" The voice is chanted, and the earthen bottle of fruit liquor is raised.

The protagonist of the day, who was smiling instead of his son, of course shook up the earthen bottle in the same way.

"Let me also say thank you to the families of Lew, Ray, Minn, Maam, Mufa and Lilyn for rushing to celebrate today! And today, Lutim and the Ladies of Luu and Asta of Lutim's Friendly Fa's House, the Ladies of Din who help it, Lem-Dom of Luu's Guest Dom prepared the dishes for the celebration! They will eat this delicious dish very much!

Not as good as the settlement of Lou, but Rutim also has a little square in front of the house. I just didn't have time to put together a simple kamado, so cloth rugs were laid all over it and the dishes were arranged exactly.

Previous feasts used Gonumoki leaves instead of plates, but now the Lew family prepares large quantities of wood plates for the feast. With that borrowed, the first thing to do was stir-fry steaks and meat vegetables made by Sheila-Lou and a large quantity of baked Poitan would be served on it.

And from the time of the division, the soup of Teriyaki, made by Raina-Lou and the others, is carried around in a hurry.

It's half the number compared to Gazran-Rutim and the rest of the wedding feast, but it's no different than the thriving.

Only minutes after the banquet was announced, there was already a great deal of buzz and enthusiasm.

"Dan-Rutim, I have brought you the first special dedication"

I carried a flat pot with Thur-din before Dan-Lutim, who had caught his way before the bright, burning ritual fire.

"Oh, Asta, thank you for your hard work!

Dan-Rutim, surrounded by colorful flowers picked by the ladies, breaks his face with joy.

"Uhm, it smells spicy! This is that dish we had a taste of at the Lew's a few days ago, isn't it?

"Yes. His name is' Giva Curry '. The flavor is a lot more complete, so enjoy this first."

When the lid was opened, the scent of the simmered curry diffused at once.

What kind of dishes have they brought, and the people around them gather straw.

"This one has a strong flavor, so it's a good idea to eat the baked potato"

"Hmm. You still smell hungry!

Dan-Rutim slammed the baked Poitan into "Giva Curry," which I took so quickly into the wooden dish.

And chew it off lavishly without fear.

"Oh no! This has changed a lot again! I think it's delicious, Asta!

"Thank you. Did you live up to your expectations a little?

"Uhm! Come on, it tastes odd, but there's no mistake about it being delicious! Hard on that, so don't let the fruit liquor go by nicely!

Laughing happily with Gahaha, Dan-Rutim looked around at the blood clans around him.

"You guys should see what it tastes like! The smell is intense, but this is delicious!

In one wood dish after another, the women of Rutim, who were present on the spot, pour out 'Giva Curry'.

I made sure everyone's face was dyed by surprise, and then I turned back.

All right, well, let's not carry him either.

"Yes."

Grab a hand from Tour-Din and take the iron pot you've been on fire outside.

It is a more powerful Tool-din than it looks, but I see a slightly tired color on its surface. In the morning it was more than usual to prepare food for wholesale in the Fa's house, to work in the street in the Inn Town during the day, to prepare under the feast from noon until now, and to work a full day.

"I'm sorry. If you carry this and the last dish, Tul-din will enjoy the feast too."

"No, because I am only a helper. … and since few people have seen it, I don't know what to do when I leave Asta."

Speaking of which, every member of Thur-din's known stall works in the catering business.

I laugh at Tour-Din as I carefully slip between people.

"Then we'll have a feast together after work. I've only known the people in the main house in Rutim, so I've been having a little trouble putting myself away."

"Yes," Thur-din smiles relieved.

Coming at dusk, Ai-Fa should probably be enjoying the feast around Lem-Dom and somewhere free from Kamado's turn of work. If you rendezvous with that one, you won't even get Tour-Din thinner.

That's how I got to Dan-Rutim, and there were my boys I knew.

It is Rud-Luu and Rau-Ray.

"Hey, you were both here."

"Oh, that's a hiccup, it's Asta! This yellow, spicy dish was pretty good too! Your food smells delicious, too!

Rud-Lew had just met the other day, but Rau-Ray was a bit more crackling.

But that doesn't seem to make a difference. He has a neutral but brave fine face with an uncontrollable grin.

"Do you mind? This is more than" Gibba Curry. "

The 'Giva Curry' pot was already empty, so I put the new pot in front of Dan-Rutim.

"Dan-Rutim, this is the dish we just talked about"

"Oh, that's an eyeball on Giva's brain!? It's something that prepared some totally outrageous dishes for me!

Dan-Rutim's eyes were shimmering with curiosity.

"Where are your eyeballs and brains sinking? The color of the tarapa makes me wonder!

"I'll split it into wooden dishes here. I hope you like it."

The broth was dominated by talapas.

I also use plenty of myrmu and pico leaves, plus shim vanilla, so the smell shouldn't be a problem.

And the key brain and eyeballs, I had a few hands on them.

Instead of just simmering, they seared the surface of each skull with fire beforehand and then threw it into the pan.

The texture of the brain and eyeballs is too unique anyway. Therefore, the surface was cooked to ensure some chewing and then simmered in a pan to allow heat to pass through.

For now, this has been my achievement over the last few days.

"Uh, where have you been?

The skull was discarded after taking the stock, so the eyeballs and brain were creeping and throwing in the pan.

Let's look for it in Tarapa's soup, keep the eyeballs, and cut the brain into quarters and leave it on a wood plate.

"Here you go. It's not a delicacy, it's a delicacy."

"It's delicious! Well, I can't complain about not trying!

Laughing, I still have no fear, and I carry my brain to my mouth first.

"Hmm," Dan-Rutim rounded his eyes, chewing it hard.

"Sure, this tastes odd. Something similar to a gut dish."

"Which one," Lauray-Ray and Rudd-Lou also put their hands up.

There was a similar reaction.

"Oh, that's not bad.... or the broth tastes extraordinarily better!

"Oh, this is delicious. You know, the brain is kind of weird."

How about eyeballs, then?

Only four eyeballs could be prepared with two heads of giva, but three of them were to be thrown into the mouth of this curious crowd.

"Hmm, not as delicious as a compliment, but so-so normal"

"I see. Nothing tastes better than regular meat."

"Not bad! Or, after all, the broth is delicious!

At the moment, this much evaluation seemed to be the limit.

Well, they didn't say it was unpleasant, so I think I'll leave it at that.

There, Morn-Rutim approached with a large wooden plate in his hand.

"Asta, I baked this one up, too.... Dan, Dad, this is Giva's tongue, right?

"Tongue? You eat to the tongue?

Dan-Lutim was pre-notified, so it was Lough Ray who surprised me.

Today's Giva Tan uses not only the fruit juice from the seal, but also the condiments based on it. It is a salt dare made with minced fried aria and salt, sugar, pico leaves and fruit liquor.

There was a pure word of praise for this.

"This is delicious! That's usually meat!

"No, it's better than regular meat, isn't it?

"Uhm, this is delicious!

After all, meaty meat seems to be preferred to brains and eyeballs by the forest people.

Well, as far as I'm concerned, there's no difference. Brains and eyeballs that cannot be handled will have to be drilled every harvest.

"Dan-Rutim, this way too"

and Raina-Lou and the others bring soup and steak.

While tasting those dishes, Dan-Rutim looked really happy.

"Every dish is delicious! Thank you so much to the Astas!

"It's a pleasure to welcome you to such an important day."

"Uhm! It's a wonderful birthday!... But isn't this all the cooking?

Dan-Lutim stares at me, like he's coming.

I made you laugh.

"Of course it is. The last dish of the special dedication is left, so leave the gap open for that."

"My stomach's only in the third minute! You want me to taste that dish as soon as possible, if you can!

Okay, hold on a second.

I turned back with Tour-Din.

'Giva Curry' and brain, eyeballs and tongue dishes under study are, if you ask me, appetizers.

As far as I'm concerned, this last special dedication was to create a heart for Dan-Rutim.

extinguish which fire was on for thermal insulation, and lift the pan with Tool-din.

So when I left Kama, I just ran into Ai-Fa.

"Is that it? Weren't you with Rem-Dom?

"Those lying bastards have thrown it out properly. I drink fruit liquor when I hang out, so I can't get my hands on it."

Has it become food for excessive skinship again? Even though it's a feast, it's turning into a cheap face.

"Are you cooking properly? I don't think he came any closer to this pot."

"He and vanilla still smudge on his mouth.... you don't use spicy vanilla in your dishes?

"Yeah. It's just fragrant vanilla."

"Then let's get that dish. After Dan-Lutim."

That's why we're going to take the three of us to Dan-Rutim.

People seem to enjoy the feast a lot.

Oura and Zwei stand together and taste Rayna-Luu's soup.

Everyone had finished their catering work, and Morn-Rutim was also making a mockery of the young ladies.

Gazran-Rutim, along with Ama Min-Rutim.

A huge shadow with a bump in the front of it would surely be Ji-Mayam of the Mayam family. He also attended this feast as a guest.

What the hell are you talking about? In the meantime, Mr. and Mrs. Gazlan looked very happy smiling and exchanging words with Ji-Mayam.

Somehow, it is a scene reminiscent of the harvest festival in Luu's settlement.

Well, as far as I'm concerned, I've only been to the feast about Gazran-Rutim et al's wedding and its harvest festival, so I guess it's impossible.

That night, I was to shake my heart with words from Darum-Lou.

But today, I can enjoy the feast with so much peace.

I rushed my feet to Dan-Rutim, stealing softly at the figure of the straw Ai-Fa.

"Oh, I'm so tired of waiting, Asta!

Next to the smiling Dan-Lutim, there were more new guests.

He is no less physique than Dan-Rutim and wears an agua somewhat. It was Luu's head Donda-Lu.

When it comes to celebrating Rutim's parents, is that what parents come out of? As always, when these two names lined up, it was a rolling word.

Keep your head down and I'll put the iron pan in front of Dan-Rutim.

"Thank you for waiting. It's Gibba's Variety Meat."

"Uhm! I can't start without this!

Dan-Rutim peeks into the contents of the iron pan as he fills his face with laughter.

"Today I applied a special sauce and grilled it with charcoal"

I thought about the abalone meat, but Dan-Rutim still deserved a simple grilled meat, which combined with this dedication.

The sauce is almost identical to the one used in the "Poitan Roll of Giva Meat", plus the mammalian vinegar. Supreme at the moment, made with seasonings that are in full swing.

At the bottom of the flesh is salt and pico leaves, and some herbs.

Although simple, it was a dish packed with the fruits of recent training here.

"Then I'll have it!

Dan-Rutim grabs the abalone meat that is divided into wooden plates.

In one bite, 80% of the meat was removed.

Dan-Lutim's face shrugs with a bite of meat.

Reluctantly, they were waiting for Dan-Rutim to finish that bite.

Taking plenty of time to chew the meat as if to spare swallowing it, Dan-Rutim said in a barking voice, "Yummy!," he declared.

"Asta! This raspberry is better than any raspberry I've ever had!

"I'm glad you're happy, and so am I."

I let him answer that way, chewing on his stifling delight.

"Uhm!" said Dan-Rutim as he grabbed the new abalone flesh, circling his gaze.

"Don't hesitate to eat them all! Sometimes with all this amount, it's not a good idea! Eat the same thing as me, and you'll know the same joy as me!

Abara meat was ready in such quantities that it was likely to spill from the iron pan.

Without this amount, Dan-Rutim thought he wouldn't be able to safely behave like everyone else.

Just waiting for me. Rudd-Lou or Rau-Ray put their hands up, and people come from afar.

Both Ai-Fa and Donda-Lou put their hands up.

After work, I put my hands up, too, along with Tour-Din.

It is three pieces of meat overlapped with fat and meat.

The juiciness has not been compromised at all, although the oil has drained a lot due to the results broiled over time.

Aromatic with notes of myrmu and vanilla, the flavour is sweet and spicy.

Tau oil, sugar, chit fruit, mammalian vinegar and minced aria, all hand in hand to create an exquisite taste.

Even for me, it was a very satisfying performance.

But let's continue with more training.

Don't let your young rivals beat you - and keep seeing your countrymen smile like this.

With that in mind, Dan-Rutim suddenly woke up bulky.

Shout out loud to no one while supporting your body with a cane.

"Today has been a totally wonderful day! There's something I want to tell you on this fucking day!

The people who each enjoyed the food also responded with cheer.

Dan-Rutim further says, nodding satisfactorily.

"Where's the gazlan? Step forward, Gazlan!

"Yes. What's up, Parent?

From beyond the dim darkness, a big shadow soars up.

Towards you, Dan-Rutim laughed gahaha.

"It's important! Donda-Lou, the head of the parent Lou family, is there too, so it's just fine! My blood, Rutim's brethren! And those of Lew, Ray, Min, Maam, Mufa, and Lilyn who unite the edges of blood! Rutim, head of the main house, listen to what Dan-Rutim has to say!

Speaking out loud, Dan-Rutim shakes up the earthen bottle of fruit liquor on his left.

"I hereby declare that I will hand over Rutim's parental seat to my son Gazran-Rutim today!

The cheer stopped ringing perfectly.

Gazran-Rutim takes his steps further with a serene face.

"What's wrong, it's my father, Dan? It seems too soon for my father Dan to pull himself out of his parental seat."

"That's not true! Now is the time for me to think about it!

With a strong grin, Dan-Rutim set his gaze on his son.

"I was supposed to be off work as a hunter for over a month because I hurt my leg. That gives me a chance to know exactly how powerful you've been! You would be able to lead your blood family more correctly than I am, Gazlan!

"No, but-"

"My legs are said to heal back to normal if I cure them for another month or so. At that time, as one hunter, it will be Rutim's power! My father Ra and I gave him the seat of head of the family to my son before he lost his power as a hunter! Young you still don't know how happy that is to get you as a parent and as a father, it's a gazlan!

So he drank the grumpy fruit liquor, and then Dan-Rutim poked the earthen bottle at Gazran-Rutim.

"After my right leg regains its power, compare your power to that of a hunter, and you won't even have me soiled yet! But your qualities as a parent and as a hunter are not identical! You already have the power to cross me as a parent!

…………

"Receive the Blessed Alcohol! Rutim's Parent Dan-Rutim gives up his Parent's seat to his eldest brother Gazran-Rutim this evening!

Gazran-Rutim shuts his eyelids silently.

The stirring silence of his chest fell - and the next time he opened his eyelids that way, Gazran-Rutim's eyes had an unprecedentedly powerful light.

Its eyes, very quiet, very serene and then ready to be riddled behind it, also felt as if some hawk-like sharpness had been added that also passes to my grandfather Ra-Rutim.

"I'll take it with me"

Gazran-Rutim receives the earthen bottle and mouths the fruit liquor.

After seeing that look satisfactorily, Dan-Rutim dropped his gaze at his feet.

"It's Donda-Lou! As the head of the Lew family, you'd be blessed, too, wouldn't you?

"Hmm... I didn't know you were going to be a parent before me."

Speaking in a bottomed voice, Donda-Lou also rises.

Staring at the top of that Buddha, Dan-Rutim laughed in a grand manner again.

"Don't take the elderly side even though you're only two years old! Besides, from today until your birthday, you're only a year old, right?

"Ha!" he rattled his throat before Donda-Lou received the earthen bottle.

"Bless the new Rutim parent, Gazran-Rutim"

Declare it that way, and sprinkle only one bite of fruit liquor.

Then five hunters entered in its place.

One of them is Lau-Ray, plus Ji-Mayam.

That means - I'm sure it's the hunters of the family of Lew.

All of them state their words of blessing before mouthing fruit liquor.

"I became Ray's parent in 16. If you were already 20 and years old, there wouldn't be any shortage.... Bless Gazran-Rutim, the new Rutim parent!

Finally, Lau-Ray declared, and there the cheer wore over.

Rutim's brethren, who were distracted, took me back.

Listening to those cheers, Ai-Fa moves forward in front of Gazran-Rutim.

"It's Gazran-Rutim. I have no blood edge, but let me bless you."

"Thank you, Ai-Fa. Please continue to be Rutim's friend as always with Asta."

"Uhm."

Instead of an eye-fa with a heavy nod, I move on too.

Gazran-Rutim gave his usual serene smile before looking back at his countrymen.

"My fellow Rutim! Let us swear here that we will lead the blood clan with all our might, without tarnishing the name of the parent who gave it to us from our father Dan! Please, along with this Gazran-Rutim, I want you to take the right path as a forest folk!

A cheer will bless the new parents.

Overwhelmed by that whimsical cheer and overflowing passion, I also turned my legs to Dan-Rutim.

"Dan-Rutim, I'm not sure what words to tell you on these occasions...... anyway, good luck"

"Uhm! I'm glad to have Rutim's friend Asta and the others standing, I am!

Dan-Rutim's face was filled with even joyful emotions.

There are tears all over the place.

I felt kind of stuffy in my chest, and still I let myself smile.

"I can't imagine a young man like me, but I'm sure you're happy, Dan-Rutim?

"Of course! I'm pretty sure I'm the happiest feeling around the woods today!

That being said, Dan-Rutim shook up his left arm again.

"That's a continuation of the feast, then! I still have the food left, so I hope you enjoy it a lot until you've eaten up the last piece!

Whoa... and a brave cheer answers.

Listening to that voice, I was supposed to feel kind of paralyzed in the core of my head.

(Li-Sudra conceived the child and Dan-Rutim ceded the parent to Gazran-Rutim.... this way, I guess I'll be touring every day)

And I think.

Today is a day I will never visit again.

No matter how painful the day, no matter how much fun it is, it all passes and becomes a thing of the past.

I once lost an irreplaceable day in my hometown, but then I was able to get a new home and get through the days of misery with my countrymen to celebrate a day called today.

Something more painful, something more fun, maybe they'll keep pushing on.

But I painfully hoped to share that pleasure with the people that seemed important to me, through their suffering.

"What are you looking so stinky about! You don't look like that on such a happy day, it's Asta!

I get slapped in the back.

Dan-Rutim was laughing.

Gazran-Rutim was also smiling.

I wonder what I had on my face.

Maybe he even had a crying look on his face.

With that in mind, Ai-Fa came to herself without sound.

Blue eyes stare back at me quietly.

"Did you finish your job? And then you, too, enjoy the feast as Rutim's friend."

"Yeah."

Impulsively, I took Ai-Fa's hand.

I = fa looked a little blushed, but didn't try to shake it off.

That's how he leads me to the front of the pot, from where he silently sticks the abalone meat he picked up into his mouth.

I took a bite of him and then I made him say "yummy."

So I = fa finally grinned and smiled at me as I caught sight of even a young child.

That's how the 26th of the Black Moon, which became an unforgettable day for me, was finally about to end.
