416 Great Change ① ~ Waiting Day ~

16th of the month of gold.

After finishing a hands-on job at the Ravitz family, we spent the rest of the day in the lodging town business again.

After entering the period of rest, it is the fourteenth day.

A month is also about thirty days in this world, so tomorrow will be roughly half a month.

Therefore, the hunters' bloodless manoeuvres were due to end tomorrow.

Most importantly, it is only a guide that the rest period is half a month, and that work as a hunter is not immediately resumed in earnest. Since the grace of the rough woods will not recover in about half a month, Gibba will not be pushing over for some time yet.

But even if grace does not come to fruition, sometimes Gibba gets lost. It was necessary to set traps and patrol the woods so that those whimsical gibberishes would not consume fruitful graces again.

There's still some loosening in the hunters' lives as that period lasts for the next half month or twenty days or so. It was during that period that I didn't want him to take care of his time with his family while resting physically.

The more Kamadoku turns, the handrail to the Sung family will begin today.

This one could go on without worrying about the duration of the rest, etc., so I was going to get the job done around five to seven days.

But before we do, let's start with business in Inn Town.

Starting today, Lily-Ravitz, the daughter-in-law of Ravitz's parents, was supposed to help me with my job.

Day-Ravitz, who doesn't hate that fa's house, also accepted to lend the women after discussions with Naham and Vin's parents.

For me, it was a thankful, unparalleled story.

Only surprisingly, it was Lily-Lavitz, who was supposed to be the bundler of the Ravitz ladies, who was chosen to help with that.

"Many things don't even happen, thank you very much."

Lilli-Lavitz, who came all the way to Fa's house to carve out the promise, was bowing his head while stating so.

She is a very small, slightly plump, and a magnificent woman with a look like a vault. The age would be about 40 or not.

It was actually the first time I had ever welcomed an elderly lady to help me with business in this way.

At the time of the work of the house of Pha, the women of various positions, young and old, gathered together, but when it came to the work of going down to the city of Dormitory, every house had elected a young daughter, as it had said.

Because Li-Sudra and Ama Min-Lutim have left, they are all unmarried women at the moment. The oldest was probably Yamil-Ray, 21, followed by Fay-Baim, 19. That's how low the average age was.

The older women have an important role to play in partitioning the work of the house.

There is also the aspect that the young ladies are more flexible in their thinking and have less prejudice and aversion to the people in town.

For those two reasons, I guess every house was to choose the young ladies.

It was Lily-Lavitz, who suddenly appeared in it.

"... but you don't seem to have any problems at all"

It was Fay-Baim who had whispered that way between jobs.

Indeed, Lily-Lavitz was not deficient in the hands-on of his work, nor was he a worker. And the appearance was always soft and polite to look at, so it felt very suitable for doing business. Being small, I had to prepare scaffolding like Limi-Luu and Zwei, but such things were also adorable.

At present, of course, I'm only letting them interact with copper coins, and then give me a fuzzy 'giba-man' at best, but it makes me look like I'm going to the hall. Guests, especially older women and young children, were either inspired by Lily-Lavitz's soft expression or looked like a lot of people were smiling and interacting.

Fay-Baim whispers again there as he sees Lily-Lavitz like that on the sidelines.

"Instead of having problems, I'm comfortable being reminded of how unwieldy and useless I was before. The first few days seemed terrible to me."

"That's not true, he said. But really, Lily-Lavitz is handy."

If so, it could have been instant combat with any training I had been in for a few days.

And then it would be perfect if you could remember the dish serving and easy cooking, etc.

"... so when you can work as good as the rest of the women, you're going to cut one of the others, right?

and Yamil-Ray also calls out from the next stall.

"Yes," I answered.

As it stands, I rent three ladies each day from Bayme, Dagola, Gaz and Ratz. If Ravitz is also incorporated there, it will change from four to five rotations.

"For God's sake, why don't you take me off? And then the other ladies will be able to work more than ever, right?

"No, as far as Yamil-Ray is concerned, Lau-Ray is definitely asking me to help - and after all, it's comforting to have Yamil-Ray, right? Especially since Easter, because I've always had the head of one stall."

…………

"Does Yamil-Ray want to work in the stalls of the Lew family, not mine?

"Nothing, not like that, though"

Even one of his lips is likely to make him shrug if he is an eye-fa, but of course Yamil-Ray just shrugged his shoulders with his usual cool face.

"Besides, if you're going to get seven Kamadu numbers out of your smaller family every day, you're also going to get two luggage cars out of Fa's house every day. After all, when it's this big a load, six drivers together seem to be the limit."

…………

"Well, even if I skip that kind of business, I wish I could work with Yamil-Ray."

"I hope you understand. If you're not dissatisfied with the other women, that's fine."

I'm sure Yamil-Ray feels drawn to the fact that he is the only family member of Luu.

Still, after all, I thought the organization was best now - four of the trainees were fixed, and three of the people helping with it were on a shift basis.

Yun-Sudra, who is now more dominant in the Blue Sky Dining Room, would also be able to replace Yamil-Ray. Conversely, though, Tour-Din and Yamil-Ray are not very suited for Blue Sky Dining Room work. Instead, he has the skills to be entrusted with the stall as a whole. Plus, the four people who added me firmly support the foundation, which makes it seem like the rest of us are able to turn the store around without a shortage, no matter how they are replaced.

(The truth is, I wanted the folks at Fou and Run to experience this business during the rest period. He'll keep it till the next time)

Yet even Gaz and Ratz seem to be raising their voices that they want to try to work the women of their families. In order to respond to such requests, it was still thought that fixed members should not move personnel slightly. He wants many people, even me, to feel the interaction with the people of the town.

With that in mind, my noble Totos car approached the stall for the first time in a few days as I encouraged him to work.

I thought it might be Polearth again, but it was his maiden who appeared from it.

"Master Asta, it's a pleasure."

"It's a hiccup, Shayla. You weren't helping Jan today, were you?... Besides, isn't Pol Earth with you?

"Yes, I was the only one sent because Lord Polearth had a job in Castle Town that he could not take off"

Ever since I mentioned it that way, she has bowed her head deeply.

"Um, I just didn't have enough of my words the other day, which caused you a lot of trouble..."

"Yes? Oh, is that one of the balls? Oh, that's an unfortunate mistake."

"But isn't Master Ai-Fa upset too...?

Shayla was looking so worried.

For some reason, she seems to care badly about the presence of Ai-Fa.

"There's nothing like Ey-Fa getting angry about Shayla. I decided to join the ball."

There was already talk between the Chiefs and Polearths on the matter.

Due on the 26th of the month of Friday. It will be exactly ten days from today. I had just changed the street holidays from every ten to every five days after discussions with the owners of the Lou family and the inn, so it was the day before the next holiday.

Incidentally, we narrowed the holiday interval because we wanted to ease the pace once we saw a dramatic increase in daily sales on the occasion of Easter and just doing the downfall was starting to feel like hard work.

I don't have any physical problems, but if I keep working from morning to evening like this, the women who participate in it will spend a lot of time with their families. It was a decision to take those mental aspects into account.

Either way, the ball's in ten days.

After finishing my business in the Lodging Town, I sent everyone to a settlement by the woods before joining Ai-Fa and I was on my way to Castle Town.

"So, what can I do for you today? Did any planned changes also occur?

"No, today depends on bringing a tailor"

"Tailor?"

I overhear unfamiliar words and I accidentally make things right.

"Yes, we would like to measure Asta's body to tailor the banquet costumes she will need at the ball"

It was also an unexpected offer.

"Uh, I hear from the chief today that you can prepare your banquet costume there. But I'll tailor that from scratch, does that mean?

"Yes, the hunters didn't even have a chance to go down to town, but if so, at least take your measurements just from Master Asta. - I'm sorry. The Countess is more than happy to give you a banquet costume."

As an example, I am referring to Pohlearth's mother, who feels very comfortable with Eurifia.

I was supposed to give a dry laugh "haha".

"It's kind of a huge distraction, but I'm sure it would be a lot more disrespectful to decline that offer"

Shayla smiled with a grin as she twitched a bit.

Perhaps, if you refuse this offer, she will be reprimanded by you, Mother of Polearth.

"Roger that. Um, I'd like to go back to Jomtien, is it okay?

"Yes, in the car, just let me measure shoulder width, leg length, etc, so it shouldn't take more than a quarter of an hour"

Half an hour is half an hour, so it's about 15-20 minutes.

I was supposed to leave the stall while I bit my sigh to death.

"Excuse me, I need a stall for a little while"

"Yes, if it's today's dedication, there's no problem"

Today's daily menu is' Roast Giva '. Fay-Baim could do this without me if I wanted to sauté a combination of vegetables.

Lily-Lavitz, by the way, is watching my behavior with a view like that of Mr. Jizo. The communication network should be turning around for the ball, but it seemed necessary to provide a supplementary explanation of how it would be connected to this situation.

(Well, this is aristocratic hospitality. I'm taking care of Polearths, and I guess I should be honest with you)

With that in mind, we head to the Totos car in Shayla's lead.

That's how I flashed with a pin as I passed through the side of the Blue Sky Dining Room.

"Um, there's one woman here to attend the ball, but how about that one?

"Oh really? If that is the case, I would like to take some measurements. The general outfit of everyone present is welcome, but it's still better if we measure it, because we can tailor it to a better banquet costume."

Then I called over to the dining room.

"Sheila-Lou, I'm sorry, could you come here for a moment?

"Yes, what is it?"

I entrust the dishes of that hand to the women of Ray, and then Sheila-Lou approaches us.

From the Lew family, she was supposed to be there.

Moreover, with Darum-Lou as a partner, is.

I haven't heard what kind of discussion was held at the Lou's house, but the day after it was decided, she gave it to me, dying her cheeks red and yet with a resolute look.

When Shayla explained the measurements, Sheila-Lou responded "Yes, sir" without questioning.

Thus, they are invited to the top of the Totos car, which was kept at the entrance to the town.

In the car, good daughters dressed in the same outfits as Shayla were waiting.

The car has a high ceiling, a two-headed, gigantic, box-shaped car that is likely to stand too long in Donda-Lou. When Sheila-Lou was led behind it, the fabric was pulled in between, making you invisible.

"Now, if you'll excuse me."

Your daughter starts measuring the size of my body with something like a tape measure.

Luckily they didn't tell me to take my clothes off. Write down the results on the book by measuring the length of the arms, neck to hips, hips to ankles, neck to neck, torso, thigh to thigh to shoulder width.

"Um, it doesn't mean I'm the only one who's gonna have a fancy costume, does it?

"Yes, then I will be rude to everyone else."

I don't have a habit of decorating myself. Before I became a forest dweller, I spent most of my 24 hours in school uniforms, cooking clothes or room clothes, so I only had enough to count about Yuki's personal clothes, etc.

I can't believe I'm being made to order a party costume like that.

(Then how can you say this about Ai-Fa complaining about the banquet costume?... but I can wear any costume beautifully)

Besides, Sin-Lu also wore the white attire of a martial artist beautifully at a former tea party. If I was made to dress like that, I'd look ridiculously funny.

Me and Sin-Lu are about the same back length, but the hunter by the woods has long hands and legs and a low back, and he has excellent style anyway. Besides, Sin-Lu stood neatly like the people of the east, and it felt like he was getting more Rin every day.

(Well, I'm not willing to hang out with people on the outside)

While I was thinking about that, I was now forced to wear a jacket for measurements.

It is a fairly large, produced outfit that is temporarily stopped with a needle, according to the thickness of the arms and hips.

It is quite a hassle to tailor a piece of clothing. Do the aristocrats wear these laborious things every time?

"Good luck. And that's it."

"Yes, thank you"

I left the car first and waited for Sheila-Lou with Shayla.

With a delay of two or three minutes, Sheila-Lou also shows up.

"Sorry to keep you busy. Stay tuned as the tailor prepares your banquet costume with more on your arms."

"Yes, thank you"

Shayla lowered her head one last time before getting in the car and walking away with the cavalry of the escort.

With a gentle breath, I turn to Sheila-Lou.

"This is the first time we've been invited as full guests, right? I'm not even a chieftaincy person, so I'm kind of distracted."

"But without Asta, we wouldn't have gotten on the right footing with the nobles. It seems natural that Asta should be invited."

"The only thing I'm looking forward to is cooking. I'm so excited because Jan, the head chef, was talking about inviting cooks from the outside as well."

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to that too"

Sheila-Lou smiled as if to haunt her.

Even when it comes to going out with Dalm-Lu, it looks like he doesn't have to shake his mind today.

No more, I guess I shouldn't slap him in the mouth extra. With that in mind, I made Sheila-Lou laugh back, too.

"Well, shall we get back to work?"

"Yes, it should be Jomtien soon."

We headed south on the growing streets of the crowd.

Thus, when we reached the end of the Blue Sky Dining Room, we were called out with a bare voice.

"Oh, I'm finally back! Asta, come here, come here!

Limi-Luu is jumping up and waving at us. Today's duty was Sheila-Lou and Limi-Lou.

"What's wrong with you? Did something go wrong?

"Come on, come on, come on!

It always seems to be an energetic Limi-Luu, but a bit of an unusual disturbance. I was a lot worried and tried to run down the roof with Sheila-Lou on a small run.

In front of him, the shadow stands.

He's a tall man with a long cloak of leather.

In addition, the men who took their seats surround them from straw to straw.

I covered Sheila-Lou and said, "Hey, what is it?" and it was to lag behind.

Then one person entered out of it.

I knew you were tall. There are more than 180 centimeters of them all. It was - all of them, the people of the east.

"Hiccup, Asta."

A familiar voice sounds quiet.

So finally, I could understand.

"Oh... I haven't hissed. You're finally back."

Heartlessly, my voice shivered.

But there wouldn't have been anyone to blame for that. It doesn't matter if you were there. No matter how anyone complained, I couldn't help but disturb my heart.

"Scheduled, late, sorry"

The man put the hood on his back.

In bright sunshine, long silver hair twinkles.

"Asta, it's good to see you again"

While stating so, the person smiled fluffily.

It is an enveloping smile, you know, that I showed at the last parting.

In the black eyes of the slice length resides a very gentle light.

Tall nose beams, thin lips, slightly longer, tighter faces, smoother lengths, and a somewhat tedious leather cape - everything looks like it's been seen before.

I was finally reunited for the first time in six and a half months with an exotic friend - Similar, the head of the company's Silver Pot.
