480 A new blood bond ④ - someday

The next thing I could wait for was fried cutlets and croquettes.

The croquette is also picked up with two kinds of regular and cream croquettes made with ground beef and chatch. Apparently it was the first time he had ever spoken of it. Rad-Lid was peeling his eyes off in a slight manner.

"This guy's an odd cook! But, well, I think it would be delicious if Giva's meat wasn't used!

"Yeah, it was a little hard for us to cook, but Yun-Sudra worked hard on it."

The women of Fou, who were catering, responded that way with a smile.

Cutlets and regular croquettes have uster sauce, while cream croquettes are coated with ketchup-style sauce. Preparing this for fifty servings would have been a lot of work. It was worth it, and all the people headed by Rad-Lid had a happy smile.

And some of them included guests who were not of blood.

Thur-din and, besides, the people of the Zaza family.

I saw him, but I didn't say hello, so I decided to keep my head down in the face of the Zaza family.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you came here. It's a hiccup, Sphilla-Zaza on George-Zaza"

"Oh," he said in response, "George-Zaza was hanging out and eating 'Giva Cuttle'.

Sphilla-Zaza, who was eating the cream croquette he was splitting into wooden plates, also returns the courtesy.

On the smiling spot, only those two names were not dusty.

I've been face-to-face with them since I compared the sword moves I did with Raelis at the Lew family.

And technically, I was just looking at it from afar then, not exchanging words. It was also supposed to be the first time in months that we were in Sphilla-Zaza to see it so close.

Sphilla-Zaza is not wearing a banquet costume.

As a Zazas' lesson, he wraps around bands and ornaments processed with fur from the top of his outfit. Without loosening her hair, she looks the same as usual.

And on that side, it was very quiet.

It's the Sphilla-Zaza that's been hanging on to me, but I can't even feel the pointy part of it, and it's just so quiet. While we didn't see each other for just a moment, it felt like she had acquired the deposition and tranquillity of an elderly person.

"Um, George-Zaza, if you eat all too much of the same stuff, you may run out of food for the others. Shouldn't that be enough to stop you?

And it was Tour-Din who raised his voice as such.

This one wraps around the feast costume securely. Yet the hair and chest also glowed with silvercrafted ornaments from Odifia.

"In addition to the feast, do we have to think about such a blame? With the folks at Fou and Sudra, they seem to want their guests to behave as they please."

"Yes. But it would be more fun for George-Zaza to mouth a variety of dishes, too, wouldn't it? They use plenty of fat, so eating too much can be painful."

Smiling like a little trouble, Tool-din didn't even look too scared.

Georg-Zaza in Giva fur is a strong aspect of his age, but Tour-Din doesn't seem so bad at it.

"Hmm! This amount makes me bitter, etc."

While stating so, Georg-Zaza set aside the wood plates, and now began to grunt the fruit liquor.

Rad-Lid, who was similarly cheeky with 'Giva Cuttle', is sniffing 'Hmm'.

"George-Zaza, you seem to have a tight face within a few moments"

"Oh? Are you going to pull out that I used to expose so loose sides?

"Mm-hmm. It feels like you totally lost your childhood. Well, it's not far from Graf-Zaza!

Rad-Lid, whose opponents were not hesitant to even parent muscles, said so and gave him a laugh.

George-Zaza said, "Hmm!" and turns that way.

Then Sufila-Zaza, who had a quiet face, looked back at me.

"Asta at Fa's house. If it's that Morn-Rutim, can you also skillfully cook dishes that use these giva fats?

"Yep. Morn-Rutim should be able to make it without any problems. She should be the number of the finger fold, even in Rutim."

"Really? I was also learning this dish at Lew's house, but I wasn't able to make it satisfactorily. If you can also get a clue from Morn-Rutim, you will be able to bring more joy to your bloodline."

The tone didn't give me a cool, inner peek like Sphilla-Zaza.

But after all, I can feel a different deposition than before.

Couldn't explain it well, but that didn't seem like a bad change.

"Is that Rutim's daughter doing well in the northern settlements? I haven't heard a word from you lately."

Rad-Lid asked me what I wanted to hear.

Sphyla-Zaza nods, "Yeah."

"Out of the blue, he's doing well with Dom's family. Sometimes I go to see how things are, but there's no sign of a rash."

"Right or right. More importantly, you wish to marry Dom's head of the family. I was just a little nervous that some women might not feel comfortable."

I felt the same way.

In Lou's words, it's tantamount to wishing Rutim or Ray's head of the house to be dowry, so that's supposed to be such a big deal.

"There are also no women in the northern settlements who wished Dick-Dom to be dowry. I wonder why, because there were so many people who thought Dick-Dom would give me a wedding."

"Oh, really?"

"Yeah. Dick-Dom himself seemed to be wondering if we should give him a wedding with Din or Lid with thin blood edges."

"In Dom's main house, these women will be scared too! As the same hunter, there are hardly as many fine men!

That said, Rad-Lid laughed wahahaha.

"Well, if Rutim's daughter's wishes come true, there's nothing else left to wait for the Parents' Council! Until then, at best, you'll have to work a lot as a number!

"... it's better than that. I'm in the blood family."

And Georg-Zaza, who was silently wearing fruit liquor, looks down at Tour-din.

"Hey, if you stay in the north settlement, can this lady help you out?

"Yeah? But I'm helping Fa's house do business, so I can't leave the house for very long."

"Is it hard to get through to help the rest of the family?"

Tour-Din got upset in a troubled way.

But sooner than I put out my help ship, I definitely look up to George-Zaza's giant.

"By helping Fa's house, I was able to raise my arm as Kamadoku's number. Isn't it too selfish of you to throw out your job all of a sudden?

"No, but-"

"Besides, I'm still trained. If you leave Asta here, you won't be able to gain any more power. Then I will not be mindless."

Georg-Zaza got his mouth shut with a face like a shin child.

This kind of place is age-appropriate George-Zaza.

Tul-din smiled at her uncle so that she could deceive her.

"So how about visiting a settlement in the north once in a while, for example, the next day of business is a day off? Then, while you continue to help with business, you may also give the women of Zaza a hand job."

"Hmm? Not on the day when business is off, but the day before?

"Yes. If you withhold business the next day, you have a job to do until the evening. So the day before your day off, after you finish your business, you can also head north to the settlement."

"So how many days off business are there?

"Now it's a day off, working five days and a day off."

"Right," George-Zaza said, sparkling his face.

To that look, Tour-Din looks a little rushed.

"But it's only Zaza and Din's parents who decide that. I need to get some recognition from you first..."

"Even my father wouldn't complain. Where did Din's parents go?

"Looks like you moved over there with your family."

"Okay," he nodded. Or Georg-Zaza walked away to you early on.

Sufila-Zaza stares at Tour-Din a lot more distractingly.

"Are you glad about that? You don't have to listen to Georg's unsolicited words, do you?

"No, if that helps the blood family, I'd love to."

To Thur-din's words, Sfira-Zaza seemed to smile only by his eyes.

"Really? I would be glad to welcome you to Zaza's house."

"Yes, thank you"

Sphilla-Zaza nodded one thing before going after his brother.

Drop it off, and then Ai-Fa calls on Tour-Din.

"Tool-din's getting stronger, too. It was a grand stand-up."

"Oh, no... I'm Zaza's blood, too..."

Tour-Din got upset again with his face red.

Rad-Lid has a big nod, yeah.

"True, Tour-Din would be Zaza's best blood! If you can do it, I want you to be more handy at Lid's house!

"Oh yes, if you get a chance, I'll be in it again..."

"Um, I'm looking forward to it! … so is it time to move on to the next kama? If you like, how about Thur-din join us?

So now the four of us are going to move.

This is also quite a delightful party.

The next thing I could wait for at Kamado was "Gibba's Round Grill".

It hasn't seemed to be that long since it was baked yet, leaving plenty of room for every area.

but one of them cutting it apart was Yun-Sudra, so I said, "That?" I was to round my eyes.

"Yun-Sudra, can you help us this time?

"Yes, as yet we all don't seem confident in the split, so I am called"

Apparently, today, Yun-Sudra is the activity of the octahedral arm.

Well, surely, speaking only of the three families of Sudra, Fou and Lan, the power of Yun-Sudra is long gone. It's the same thing that Thur-din's power is slipping out in Zaza's bloodline, which includes Din and Lid.

"This whole baking thing only gets a chance to talk about it at the banquet! I'm finally in a good mood!

Rad-Lid shouts out loud again as he grabs the meat on his back that Yun-Sudra has cut him off.

The banquet is at last full of atmosphere.

There, the parents of Birdu-Fow and Lan approached.

"Oh, you were here, Rad-Lid. It's I-Fa. Are you enjoying the feast?

"Uhm! We're having a lot of fun! Every dish is so good I regret it!

Instead of the noisy Lad-Lid, Ai-Fa is also nodding.

"That's more than anything. By the way, I'd like to say a few words about the next harvest festival."

"Hmm? Did you lift it up with something wrong?

"No, that's not it. Din and Sudra's parents just got recognition, so I need you to listen to me now. … talk quietly over there"

The parents took him away from Kamado.

I make him laugh, "It's okay," because I-Fa's been looking me in the eye that he's going to notice.

"I'm here, talking to Tour-Din and Yun-Sudra. You don't have to worry about anything, do you?

"Uhm," he said often, showing himself on patrol, before Ai-Fa went after the Burdu-Faws.

"What's going on? I hope this isn't a bother."

Tour-din looked anxious, so I'll make him laugh at you too.

"The Birdu-Faws didn't look serious either, and I guess I don't have to worry about anything. I don't think there's going to be any trouble between these six families."

"Yeah, right," Thur-din smiled, too.

In the meantime, Yun-Sudra is vertiginously dismantling Gibba's leg.

"My legs are off. How about some flesh on your feet, too, Asta?

"Thank you. I'll take it."

It was a crackling 'round roasted giva' for me because I had eaten it at this previous feast of the Lew family.

On parisian skin, moist meat is delicious in every area. The tau oil-based sauce seemed to have been pre-painted, and its flavoring boosted my appetite again.

"Is Yun-Sudra eating well too? I get a lot of attention from Ai-Fa, too, but don't get carried away with your work and eat your feast dishes."

"Yes, I'm fine," replied Yun-Sudra's face, strengthening along the way.

He's staring behind my back, hissing his shapely brow. Looking back as we traced that gaze, Joo-Run stood there neglected.

"Um, can I talk to you for a second, Asta?

"What are you talking about to Asta?

Earlier than me, Yun-Sudra questioned me that way.

Joo-Run is lowering his eyebrows in a very sliced manner.

"It's not a big deal. Maybe for someone other than me."

"If you approached Fa's people in a detour, wouldn't they be suspected by the people around you?

"Really?" Joo-Run drops his shoulder.

Somehow, it was too awkward.

"I don't mind if we talk about something else. I guess we're not talking about someone scolding us, are we?

"Yes.... I guess"

Yun-Sudra still looked complaining, but I decided to respond to Joo-Run's request.

Take a short distance from the crowd at Kamado and face Joo-Run.

"So, what's the story?

"Yes.... Um, is this about Asta, the man that I-Fa wanted to be his partner?

That was, well, not so unexpected a question.

"I don't think we should talk about that in the absence of the person. Isn't that what you learn by the woods?

"But the people of Run and Fow keep their mouths shut and say it that way... so it was true after all?

"No, so it seems like the answer to that from my mouth is out of the woodland lesson,"

In the meantime, if Ai-Fa were in the same position, he would have answered that way.

So I decided to try to bump my doubts without affirming or denying them.

"So, what would Joo-Run do if it were true?

"Hi again, I'm in a position where I've been confined to I-Fa... and I can't complain to whoever I-Fa thinks I am"

After stating so, Joo-Run took a deep sigh.

"But it looks like the story I heard was true after all... oh and more importantly, I can't believe the person I was thinking of was Asta... I kind of want to get nagging on the ground already"

"Duh, why? Whoever you're dealing with, it's no different, right?

"'Cause I'm one of those Yun-Sudra and Asta things that pissed me off, didn't I? You'd have been pissed off in a double sense if you tried to make it an eye-fa, wouldn't you? I can't believe I made the person I was thinking of feel so uncomfortable... sincerely, I don't like myself"

As far as I'm concerned, I was in a mood I didn't even know.

However, it doesn't seem natural after all for a man by the woods to reveal such a mood.

"Besides, there's no way that Asta would have stood up to me. Because hunters and so on can't compare forces."

"Yeah, well, maybe it is."

"...... I = fa is a hunter after all, so will I be distracted by Asta, who is Kamado's turn? Asta is kind as a bunch of women, and she has a lovely face."

What should I have answered if I had heard such a dialogue?

Joo-Run has a perfect face with the phonetic "and cheeks".

"... but I also feel a little clearer. I don't know how good a hunter I've become, because I can't move the feelings of I-Fa. In that sense, I gave up."

"Ugh, yeah, right"

"I would like to manage to get my feelings together so that I can sincerely congratulate you, even if I = fa and Asta are going to give you a wedding.... Um, don't suddenly give me a wedding tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? Then I can't keep up with how I feel..."

I didn't seem to deserve much of an answer that I wasn't planning on giving you a wedding, so I just answered, "Okay."

"Well, excuse me.... Oh, how can Yun-Sudra sift so resolutely? It's really splendid..."

Leaving those words behind, Joo-Lan and I walked away.

Totally out of poison. As I went back to Kama, Ey-Fa, who was exchanging words with Yun-Sudra, looked back with tremendous momentum.

"Asta! I thought you said you were waiting for me here!

Ey-Fa comes a little closer and makes my shoulders scratch.

"I heard the situation from Yun-Sudra. Didn't that lying bastard mention something that wasn't even Locke again?

"Ugh, yeah. He seemed to be reflecting on what pissed me off about I-Fa. They're going to make you feel better so you can bless Ai-Fa no matter what happens."

"... what's the point of calling you to talk about all that?

"I think you wanted to talk to me because Ey-Fa said you'd talk to me.... and I wanted to see who the person I wanted to welcome to my partner was."

When I whispered to her, Ai-Fa turned red with her eyebrows lifted.

"I told you I couldn't talk like that without you in person. That's good, isn't it?

"... Other than that, didn't you slap the extra mouth?

"Hmm. You've told me I'm cute as a bunch of women."

I made a joke and tried to answer that so that I could understand Ey-Fa's feelings.

The eye-fa that was twisting my face makes my eyes black and white like a little.

"What is that? You know, it's kind of disgusting for a man to think that way about a man."

"Yeah. I'm having trouble replying, too."

Ai-Fa finally took her hand off my shoulder, sighing.

Once again, Rad-Lid, who was enjoying "Giva's Round Grill," said, "What's going on?," he calls out.

"It's a cool thing to be friendly, but I think we should wear more or less at people's weddings."

"I'm not talking about that! You're too light-hearted, Lid's parents."

"I didn't say anything lightly."

Rad-Lid laughs, not even in the way he did.

Yun-Sudra and Tour-Din were by my side, so this time I was going to take in a shameful comfort too.

"So, what was the story about Birdu-Fow?

"Hmm? Stick around. That wasn't a big deal! It's a joke about the harvest festival. It was mainly about the partition of the feast."

"The partition? Oh, was the partition of the feast to be carried around in each family?"

"Hmm. In the order previously decided, it was Sudra's turn next, but this was how Sudra became Fou's family, it would be better to replace her with another family,"

This means that the blood of the same family is not well enough to divide the harvest festival in a row, so we should send Din or Lid or Fa in between. It is a verdu-foeu-like statement with an honest temper.

"Which way, the place will be this settlement of fou, and I guess the contents of the dishes etc. will revolve around asta, so I guess it doesn't make a big difference which clan divides them up. Well, there's something in front of the Zazas, and next time, Din or Lid are going to let us divide them up."

"Really? I'm looking forward to the rest period next month."

"Uhm! Thanks to Fa's house, I can't wait to see the feast any more than before!

It felt like the luxury of Rad-Lid had wiped away the subtle air brought on by Joo-Run.

Ai-Fa is Ai-Fa, who occasionally relieves himself of his face all the time. What a lovely look.

"Okay, I ate your back, your chest, your legs! It's time to move on to the next one!

Yun-Sudra still had work to do, so we were to travel for four again.

Other people are enjoying the feast without a family member. In the midst of a plethora of twilight nights, the ritual fire and the burning fire are burning brightly. No matter how many times you experience it, it is a feast by the woods.

(Now less than ten days later, it's Sheila-Lou's wedding this time. Grandma Ziva's birthday is just the first time in a row)

But I wouldn't have gotten tired of the feast.

People are not making noise for no reason. He heartily celebrates and enjoys his arduous work, his precious family's wedding, and his oldest birthday. There is no more inert and feast than there is a solid reason there.

If I had been caught in an old cliché, it would have been hard for me and I-Fa to attend these feasts.

So I was able to truly appreciate the joy of bonding with different people.

"Wow, was it a treat next?"

And I hear Rad-Lid walking in the lead.

Seeing it, there was certainly no scuffle there, and sweet confectionery was sloppily arranged on the table between the whole and the board. The menu consists of baked confectionery, chatch cakes and steamed pudding served on a large plate.

Again, many of the appearances of women and toddlers stand out.

However, it was not without the appearance of a man, and yet within it was also the appearance of Lyelpham-Sudra.

"Oh, aren't you Sudra's parents? What are you doing without a confession?

"Until just now, I had a wife. But I pulled into the house again, so I thought I'd take something sweet."

It is a smaller Lyelpham-Sudra than most women. It was somewhat humorous of him to put his neck up like that and find sweet treats.

"Is Li-Sudra bad for you at any point?

A little worried and when I asked, Lyelpham-Sudra shook her head "No".

"I'm just taking care and resting. Until now, my stomach never grew that big, so I guess I'm just a little tired."

"Hmm. Sure, it's not the size you're going to be born into. But is it still expected to take more than a month?

"Oh, it should be"

"Then how big a child will be born! I look forward to this in a month!

It was both the same parent but quite contrasting.

But it's Lyelpham-Sudra, who doesn't move into anything, so it doesn't look like he's barometric pressured by the luxury of Rad-Lid either. Lyelpham-Sudra is the bearer of the gall power that Donda-Lou and Georg-Zaza will never be frightened of.

Thinking that way, Lyelpham-Sudra's bottom line eyes have been directed at me and I-Fa.

"... it's Asta to Ai-Fa. Can you give me a minute now?

"Hmm? Sticky, I don't care."

"Okay, come here for a second"

Thank you. There seems to be a lot of opportunity today to not have personal stories.

Leaving Rad-Lid and Tour-Din on the spot, we were set to walk towards the edge of the square.

"I was busy, too, so I didn't really have a chance to say hello. I am so happy to invite you both today"

"That's the same thing here. I am delighted to celebrate Sudra and Fou's platter day together"

I nodded, too, and let him show his consent.

From a place almost as low as a head minute, Lyelpham-Sudra was staring at our faces.

"What more might you think... I really appreciate you guys, I'm Asta to Ai-Fa"

"Hmm? That's how it happened, what's going on?

"It was all thanks to Fa's house that Chim was able to receive his daughter-in-law from the rest of his family, and that Li was able to conceive his child well, if he asked the original question. I never forgot how much I owed it to you for a day."

Ai-Fa frowns at Ulange.

"What's really going on? Sudra and I have helped each other more than once, so I don't think we need to worry about anything."

"No, we haven't been able to return anything yet. It may be wrong to say this kind of repetition in a friendly way... but I still can't help but say it"

It is the face of Lyelpham-Sudra, as wrinkly deep as a small monkey and not very expressive, but there was a very serious light in its eyes.

"We, Sudra, were just houses waiting for doom. There was no loose end to buying Aria or Poitan satisfactorily, starving their children and family to death... realizing that there were only nine families left. Four of them were young people who had yet to marry their spouses, but even if they had children, they would not be raised satisfied, so that they would not even give a wedding to each other's families."

"... um"

"Everyone gave up on having kids, etc. I guess I had to give up because Li and I made it look so bad about the sadness of losing our child. That chim and hunting even one more giva, and then only decaying into the woods - that's what I've been thinking. That allowed me to marry my daughter-in-law from a house as splendid as Fou's today. So, as much as I do, I must be grateful to Ai-Fa and Asta"

While stating so, Lyelpham-Sudra has grabbed my hand with his right hand and Ey-Fa's with his left.

"As Sudra's parent, let me thank you. And in the future, let's swear we'll be in the power of Fa's house. Even if we turn the chieftaincy against the enemy, we will never be the enemy of Fa's house."

"It is we who are not going to turn the chieftaincy against the enemy. And I believe that we have become more or less recognised by the chieftaincy muscles because the different clans, starting with Sudra, have helped us"

Ai-Fa said so in a serene voice.

"And among other things, you're the one who gave us so much power, the head of Sudra. With me, I've never forgotten that you didn't have to be afraid of the Sung family to give your endorsement at the Parents' Conference or protect Asta from Tae-Sung."

"... it's my pride to have you say that"

At the end of the day, after much effort, Lyelpham-Sudra let go of her hand.

"I'm sorry about the feast. I really wanted to thank you for this day."

"Uhm. I want you to keep your hands on me, as a friend"

"Yep. Regards, Lyelpham-Sudra"

Lyelpham-Sudra smiled with a crease on her face.

That was, after all, an odd look, like a little monkey - as uncommon as it was for him, an uncontrolled smile.

In the meantime, the tone of the grass whistle echoes.

The time for dancing by unmarried women has come.

But the women gathered before the ritual fire were only enough to count.

I guess there aren't that many unmarried people in Fou or Run or Sudra anymore.

"Ai-Fa still doesn't dance?

When Lyelpham-Sudra inquired, Ai-Fa nodded "um".

"I'm not even going to welcome my partner, but there's no reason to dance"

"I guess so. I'm sorry to hear one heart-wrenching man after another like Joo-Run."

That's what Lyelfam-Sudra said, still leaving the laughter aftertaste on his shitty face.

"Asta to Ai-Fa. I'm not young anymore, but until I see my child grow up fine, I'm determined to survive at all costs. So... I'm looking forward to your wedding."

"Suddenly, what are you missing, Sudra's parents?"

In an unexpected manner, Ai-Fa blushed.

Well, I guess I didn't lose to Ai-Fa either.

"I'm not joking about anything. I want to see both of my great-great fa people happy. That's as strong as waiting for your child's wedding."

"No, so..."

"It's been over a decade since my child, not even born, will give you a wedding. Don't tell me it's gonna be a later wedding than that."

At the end of those words, Lyelfam-Sudra walked away with a chicken.

We meet red in the dark.

"Hey, Asta, I'm..."

"I know. You don't know what's ahead."

"Yes," he says, and Ai-Fa turns that way.

The red face was also half-hidden by the jade bug-colored vale.

The pitiful tone of the grass whistle rings in the square.

In the meantime, we stood in darkness, feeling only your presence close for a while.
