Then, a moment or so later, the heads of each family gathered together continuously.
Me and I-Fa step into the sacrificial hall with Birdu-Faw and the others and sit back on the rug.
For the first time in a year, it is a sacrificial hall.
There are entrances and exits on all sides, and although all the books there were wide open, the indoors are a lot dimmer. However, it was not so inflexible to see what was going on inside.
The upper seats are provided with altars assembled in old wood.
It is the giant Giva skull that is set high there. Perhaps as immense as the Lord of the Woods, whom the Ai-Fas had previously put in place.
The hunters were already sitting quietly, dressed to face the altar, to count seventy.
And the heads of their families, even unto thirty-seven, and the hunters of their offerings.
Lou and his family, Rutim, Ray, Minn, Maam, Mufa and Lilyn.
Zaza and his family, Dom, Gene, Havilla, Dana, Din, Lid.
Sauti and his family, Vera, Dawn, Faye, Dada and Tamr.
Fou and his family, Run, Sudra.
Ratz and his family, Meme, Auro.
Ravitz and his family, Naham, Vin.
Baim and his family, Dagola.
Gaz and his family, Matua.
Die and his family, Lehn.
And with the addition of Sung and Fa, who have no family, are thirty-seven families.
At the last Conference of Parents it was told that four things were constant, but this year all the families were able to face each other without such a change.
However, there have also been no reports that we have set up a new Mr and divided the house because too many families have grown. By the woods, after Gene was separated from Zaza's house, he was told that he had declined in decades.
Nevertheless, it is spectacular that so many hunters meet together.
The sacrificial hall was originally built with a high ceiling, so even if this number of people gathered together, I don't feel so pressured. It just felt like its spacious space was filled with something like the fierce vitality of the hunters.
After all, everyone seems to be waiting for the start of the meeting with a few tenacious faces. Fun bickering is about some cheerful hunters - Dan-Rutim and Raw-Ray and Rad-Lid, and the majority of the people just sat there silently.
(But after all, we all have livers sitting around. Even if Tia's appearance gets in my eyes, I won't try to change one complexion)
When I was thinking that way, I kept my mouth shut like I couldn't see Tia, who had been quiet all along.
"Looks like all the hunters gathered on this occasion are quite skillful. Tia's got a puffy back."
"Yeah, because it's the head of each family and the hunters chosen for it."
Thus it was the custom of the elder brother of the heir to protect the house when the parents left the house, so it was thought that it was roughly the second brother of the main house who would be chosen for the offering.
However, if the parent was unmarried or if the child was still of an age not to be a hunter, the head of the branch close to the parent would be elected, etc. We talked about Rau-Ray's offering being his uncle, and Lyelpham-Sudra's offering was Chim-Sudra, the head of the branch.
Besides, in Sautti, the elder Moga-Sutti is showing up again this time. Though the son of Dari-Sauthi was still young, it seemed that it was about Sauthi and Fa who were offering humans who were not hunters.
Moreover, there were three humans on the spot who came in a separate frame from the offering.
One of them is tier, the other is schmiral.
And the last one was Lem-Dom.
Lem-Dom, who was supposed to work as an apprentice hunter while she was a woman, was also forced to show her face.
Schmiral and Lem-Dom, who have not yet stabbed Gibba with their own hands, just sit, unwrapped in the hunter's clothes. When hunting, it seems to wrap the cape of the borrower, but it was forbidden to wrap it in this kind of place.
Three chiefs by the woods finally enter the room as they wait in painful silence.
And it came to pass, when the three chiefs bowed down before the altar, that the three men, their offerings, went in, and sat behind each of their parents. He's a young hunter for the Dalm-Lu and Moga-Souti, and the Zaza family.
"Now it looks like we're all together. Now I'm going to start a parenting meeting."
It was Dari-Sauti who proclaimed in a relaxed voice.
"This will be the first parenting meeting since the three families of Luu, Zaza and Sauti were ordained new chieftaincy muscles. To avoid confusion, the partitioner decided to take turns each year. This time the partitioner became me, but would anyone disagree?
Then the head of Gene, who was in the front row, raised his hand. He is a magnificent hunter with a very wide and thick physique, although about the length of his back.
"It's not like there's an objection. But if there's a reason Dari-Sauti was chosen, I want you to let me hear it."
"Oh, I'm the youngest of all, and I have a small blood family. Originally, I would have liked to give that seat to Donda-Lou or Graf-Zaza... as I know, the certainty of the conduct of Fa's house is questioned in today's meeting. Then I've settled on the story that I should be the head of Sautti, who has taken a neutral stance."
"I accepted," Gene's parents said, nodding heavily.
Dari-Sauti smiles calmly while looking around at the parents gathered on the spot.
"Let's get a brief report done before the meeting. Every time something has happened here lately, I've been using Totos and the luggage truck to talk to all my clans, so I guess it will be a story I've already learned… First of all, in Rutim and Vera my parents are going to take turns, so I want you to say hello"
"Uhm! I'm going to rest for a while in the middle of a giva hunt! It was on that occasion that I was to give my eldest brother Gazlan the seat of his parents!
Dan-Rutim stands up, saying in a cheerful voice. Gazran-Rutim, who raised his hips as he tried to chase it, praised him with a serene look as usual.
"As you can see, I am now fully recovered and encouraged by the hunter's work! This will be the last time you show your face to the Conference of Parents! From now on, take Gazlan as Rutim's head and say hello!
"I'm not even my father Dan yet, but as Rutim's parent, I want to be responsible for the end of the woodland with everyone else."
The other parents listening to the words had each returned their salutations with a solemn face.
That's how when both names of the Rutim family sit down, Vera's parents and his predecessors rise this time. This previous parent was unable to walk without a cane, so his son, the parent, lent him a hand from the side.
"Unfortunately, I've lost my power as a hunter, so I'm leaving my parents' seat. As everyone has already been informed, the Lord of the Woods, who appeared in the hunting grounds of Sauti, has been hit in the hips. From now on, I'd like you to meet my son as Vera's parent."
Both of Vera's names appeared to be about the same age as Rutim's parents and children.
I guess it is still a blessing for a woodland hunter to be able to entrust the Parent's Seat to my child within life, not uncommon to lose his life. Vera's predecessor parents also felt a clear look, no less than Dan-Rutim.
"I want to offer my blessings once again to Rutim and Vera's new parents.... and the next report, I hear Fou and Sudra are going to tie the edge of the blood"
In the wake of Dari-Sauti's words, now Birdu-Fow and Lyelpham-Sudra stood up.
"The parent muscle is Fou, and Sudra becomes Fou's family. So you're not mistaken, are you, Fowe's parents?
"Mm-hmm. Sudra and I are planning to give you two more weddings soon. I'm going to join forces to fulfill my role as a hunter."
"Let me bless you wholeheartedly.... Speaking of which, it was Fou and Sudra's house that suggested to us that when something went wrong by the woods, we should not quickly touch all the families."
"No, the first thing I mentioned was Lyelpham-Sudra. I felt the word was the right one, so I just decided to turn to the rest of my family and rush to the chiefs."
Birdu-Fow said in a calm voice, Lyelpham-Sudra was on the top of the Buddha. Dari-Sauti compares those two figures with a smile.
"Fow's parents are also part of the Trinity Chiefs' gathering, so he's someone I know well enough for me. And how brilliant and thoughtful Sudra's parents are is heard from her mouth all the time. It's comforting that Fou and Sudra tied the edge of blood."
"... Birdu-Fow is buying me away. I'm not that kind of person."
"But Sudra's parents, even compared to the power they went with the Six Families, have been brave twice in a row? It's a big deal not only to be bright, but to have so much power as a hunter."
That's how he made Lyelpham-Sudra look so bitter, then Dari-Sutty shrugged his seat to both names.
"And there is another set, a family that has crossed the edges of blood. Ravitz's parents and Vin's parents also want to say hello"
In the distance, two figures rose.
But one of them was a person with a unique appearance that could not be misseen even at this distance. As bald as Dan-Rutim is, plus no mustaches or eyebrows, Ravitz's parent Day-Ravitz.
"You have Ravitz as your parent, and Vin is going to be your family. We were talking about Vin being on the verge of doom, just like Sudra, so let's celebrate that it was saved."
"Hmm. The Sung family, who neglected the Vin family, lost their power, so they finally managed to tie the edge of their blood. Otherwise, the Vins would have been doomed before this Conference of Parents"
Saying so, Day-Ravitz dazzled Sung's new parents with a strong light eye.
"Or is the Sung still neglecting the Vin family? At that time, I'll have to deal with him as a parent."
"It was Zuro-Sung, the previous parent, who neglected the Vin family. Of course, the Sung family doesn't have nausea or anything in the Vin family right now."
"Hmm. If that's what you mean, luckily"
That much to throw away, Day-Ravitz just got seated.
Apparently, the sexuality is the same. He was the one who used to beat up hatred at me and Ai-Fa even when he was being cooked and bloodless.
Dari-Sauti has his head on his face like he's smiling bitterly.
"That's all the families that have connected the edge of blood in the past year. Next... let's talk to Dom's parents."
Dick-Dom stood up with the sleigh of
Rem-dom also follows it with supple behavior.
"In Dom's house, he allowed the women, Rem-Dom, to work as apprentice hunters. The apprentice hunter takes two years to show his power, so in those two years he's looking to identify the power of Lem-Dom."
I guess this is why I'm calling my sister, Lem-Dom, with Mr. on him, because this is the official place. I behaved in contrast to Dan-Rutim.
"Hmm," Dari-Sauti strokes his mandible as he compares the appearance of Dom's brothers and sisters with an extremely impressive look.
"Indeed, it was proved by Pha's head, Ai-Fa, that even the women had a hunter of superior power. But we were surprised to hear such stories from the northern clan, which weighed heavily on forestside learning."
When Dari-Sutty said that in a voice that sounded fun, Dick-Dom glowed his black eyes under Gibba's skull.
"Neither do I think that all the ladies are equipped with the same powers as Fa's parents, Ai-Fa, etc. Whether or not this Rem-Dom is the man the hunter deserves, I wish I could be the head of Dom's family."
"... If I fail to show strength in the last two years, I will also serve as a lady. Parent Dick didn't even want me to be a hunter, so he should be watching over my actions with more rigour than anyone else."
Lem-Dom hung his lips up more after stating it in a tone that he was not even scared at all.
"Still, when some lady says she wants to be a hunter, etc., come to me. I will now see to it the power of its women, as I, Fa, have done so."
"... what do you want at the apprentice hunter's minute, you"
Lem-Dom looked so delightful when Dick-Dom twisted him with his bottom light eyes.
"'Cause if you were a more powerful woman than me, you'd be qualified to be an apprentice hunter, wouldn't you? If there's such a crowd, I'd love to meet you."
"So far, no women seem to have shown up wishing to challenge Rem-Dom. I want Dom's parents to guide their families correctly"
Each of the Dom's brothers and sisters lowered their hips as Dari-Sauti raised his voice around a bitter laugh.
"And next, you're Schmiral at Lilyn's house. Schmiral wished to marry the eldest sister of the Luu main house and was recognized as a family member by the woods. That's what I was told before."
Schmiral and Gillan-Lillin stood up.
Schmiral droops his head silently and Gillan-Lilyn has a relaxed grin.
"Schmiral became a family member of Lilyn's house, but Mr. has yet to be given. When Schmiral is recognized as the person the forest people deserve, Mr. Lilyn's will be given to also be allowed a wedding with the house of Lou. … but whether or not Vina-Lu, the eldest sister of the Luu main house, will take the story is another story."
"Yes, first of all, Mr. Lilyn, as you can have, I want to do my best,"
The parents of each family were quietly watching over the figure of Schmiral.
And by this I was blamed. I can't feel my gaze, so I stroke my chest down with relief. The fact that Schmiral abandoned God and his homeland to fulfill his own thoughts, as well as bringing the existence of the hounds to the woodside, should also have been extra told by all the families.
"I hear Schmiral hasn't been recognized as a single hunter yet, either, but you were talking about being better than anyone when it comes to handling hounds."
"Uhm," Gillan-Lillin nodded, Dari-Sauti said.
"Schmiral has not been given a hunter's coat because he did not have the opportunity to stab the stomach with his hands. But with the power of the hounds handled by Schmiral, Lilyn's house is able to yield more than ever. In a way, I'd say he's a better hunter than me."
"Hmm. Still, it's a decision that doesn't extend to giving Mr. Lilyn?
"Oh. What I'm looking at isn't power as a hunter, it seems to be its heart. Whether Schmiral is truly to be welcomed as a compatriot or not, I intend to see it"
After stating so, Gillan-Lilyn narrowed her eyes and smiled.
"It's been almost six months since we welcomed Schmiral to Lilyn's house that way. As hard as Dom's parents can beat me, I'm going to keep an eye on Schmiral... but I'm thinking it's time to come to a conclusion."
"Right. That would be up to Lilyn and Lew's house to decide, so there would be no need for extra clan people to shut their mouths.... but that Schmiral was going to continue working on something called the Chamber of Commerce while living as a forest folk."
"Mm-hmm. Once we leave Genos, they're not going to be able to go back about six months. If we spend a year by the woods, we're going on a journey for six months. That's how life repeats itself."
So for the first time, the parents bothered a lot.
The story should also have been communicated, but once again, I guess we're getting rid of that specificity.
"That's a long story, I'd say, out of tune with the Forestside lesson.... but Schmiral did bring a hound to give other hunters a better harvest."
"Oh. In fact, the power would have been extraordinary. It was an act that empowered not only Similar himself, but all his family."
Gillan-Lillin looked around at the parents as she narrowed her eyes for fun.
"As we all already know how much that power was. The power that Schmiral brought to the woodland is too great.... but still, it should be noted that me and Donda-Lou are trying to rigorously determine whether Schmiral is the person his countrymen deserve. On top of that, if we welcome Schmiral as a compatriot... I hope everyone heartily blesses him."
Schmiral drowned his head deep again.
Stop bluffing and no one to argue with. Dari-Sauti nodded loudly, nodding his seat to both names.
"Let us look forward to seeing what decisions Lilyn's parents and Donda-Lou will make then. So... finally, about the Red Wildlings."
I = fa stood up as I nodded Tia.
The parents look back at it with a sharper eye than ever before. After all, this is a heavier case than Lem-Dom or Schmiral.
"On the green moon, Fou's humans were to pick up the red wildlings by the woods. The red wildlings, while fighting with the serpents of Madarama in the mountains of Morga, said they were going to fall into the river of Rant and flow all the way to the woods... that's what they're talking about."
"Mm-hmm. This one didn't go down the mountain of his own free will, and it was also done under the influence of the soldiers of the king's capital once stepped to the border between the mountains and the woods to alert the red wildlings. I am therefore told that I will allow myself to remain in the forest settlement until the wounds heal, after which I will return to the mountains of Morga."
"Oh. We're the only ones who've made that decision. You're going to have an extra hard time at Fa's house. If I were you, I would have thought the clan of the chieftaincy muscle should have kept the figure."
"... It's not a responsible story to stick to the Chiefs, and I guess I'll just have to think I was unlucky"
Ai-Fa had a brilliant face and answered that way.
No one would think that this Ai-Fa initially hated it like a wasting child, etc.
Instead, Tia has her spine up without feeling it.
The hair and skin are dyed in a strange red brick color, and the cheeks, back of the hand and back of the foot are engraved with a strange pattern, extremely impressive. Although they look younger than the age of twelve and the right foot is wrapped around in a bandage, their little body is replete with life force that should also be called wild vigor.
"But is wanting to sit in Fa's house a discretionary statement of the Red Wildlings? If you think Fa's house is annoying, you don't seem to have to listen to it."
and there were those who spoke as such.
I'm not very familiar with him, he's Gaz's parent. Gaz's parents were twisting Tia's figure, frowning at Uranzo.
"He insists that he wants to redeem his sins against Asta, but it is also the wildlings who committed such sins in the first place. How did you end up following such an argument when it wasn't even a false story in Fa's house?
"It wasn't sneaky to twist the feelings of the Red Wildlings, so it was."
As Dari-Sauti nodded, Ai-Fa nodded "Uhm".
"Of course, we could have turned down that offer. With me, I didn't mean it at first, and I'm still not happy about it. … However, for him, it was also a code that could not be taken lightly, so I had to accept it."
"Still, I don't think Fa's house carries the hard work. In Fa's house, where there are only two families, it would be a big struggle to keep them?
"I'm not saying it's a small struggle. But compared to the pain he's in, I guess it's still a little bit of a struggle."
Only in a quiet voice, Ey-Fa said so.
"He even said it would be easier to give his soul back if he was as far away from Asta as he could be. You can't kick them out without saying so much. I can only assume that this is also a guide to the forest."
"Right. If I'm convinced, it doesn't matter."
That's what Gaz's parents said, and he was supposed to shut his mouth.
Gaz's house is also deeply connected to Fa's, so he must have considered us a nuisance.
"I am grateful to Ai-Fa and Asta for their unwanted hard work. … Then I'd like to check again on the treatment of the red wildlings"
Dari-Sautti once again stated that tone.
"By the laws of Genos, it is forbidden to regard red wildlings as human beings. They say that the red wildlings who worship the gods who are not the four great gods are in no way incompatible with the people of the kingdom.... Therefore, neither are we allowed to treat the Red Wildlings as friends or compatriots, except the people of the kingdom. He must solve the human language, but only treat it as a beast of the wild."
No one questions it.
Dari-Sauti nodded one before continuing further.
"But neither did Malstein, Lord of Genos, dispute our decision. He was talking about being unacceptable as a friend or compatriot, but not necessarily as an enemy. Unless this guy violates the woodland code or the laws of the kingdom, there's no reason to hurt Mumble. Keep that in mind."
After all, there is no one to question.
Dari-Sauti nodded satisfactorily before turning his gaze back to Ai-Fa again.
"So, you were talking about the wound healing and the need for a hundred days or so?
"Mm-hmm. About half a month has already passed, so the rest is about three months. They need that many days before the broken bones can connect and regain their original strength."
"The leg wound is a pain in the ass. All this will have to wait for the time to come.... So, is there anything else unknown?
It was a word addressed to all parents.
For once, no one tries to speak up.
And then - the tier of the day said, "Okay?" He raised his voice.
"Hmm? I'm not asking you to stick around."
"Still, I just want you to let me talk a little bit. Tia is deeply grateful to the people of the woods."
That being said, Tia lowered her head with a pepper.
The parents, slightly shrugged, keep an eye on that little figure.
"Tia, who had left the Mountain of Morga, thought he had no choice but to return his soul. Tia is sincerely grateful to the people by the woods for giving such a warmth to Tia. So I want to swear here and again that I will never go against the words of the people by the woods"
"Mm-hmm. We believed that word, which allowed you to stay by the woods. You hang on to your pride and live right."
"Be sure to let that happen. And I am also deeply grateful to you for allowing me to stay under Asta. When a disaster approaches Asta, Tia uses this life to protect her. So I want you to continue to forgive me for being by Asta."
That's how Tia bearded an innocent grin all over that little face.
"And Tia is very fond of the people by the woods. Everyone in the outside world heard that their souls were rotten, but it turned out to be a mistake. Red people and people from the outside can never be friends or compatriots... but Tia is still very happy to have met the people from the woods"
I got a slightly different shade of fur than I did earlier.
Even in this dimness, I guess Tia's innocent smile and a pure eye arrived. Dari-Sautti was smiling, too, like he was stuck.
"So that's it for the Red Wildlings. You're not a compatriot. You have to stay away for a while."
"Uhm. It's painful to get away from Asta, but Tia follows the words of the forest chief"
Then Lem-Dom stood up.
"Then shall I keep the wildlings for a while? Mean parents are telling me to stay out during the meeting."
"Right. Then let's leave it with Lem-Dom. It would be more comfortable for the Sung children and the elderly."
Tia laughed at me and Ai-Fa before leaving the Sacrifice Hall with Lem-Dom.
Similar to chasing it, Schmiral also gives a bowl of grace before leaving the room. I guess people who are not offerings are forbidden to be present in order to make the meeting fair.
"Well," said Dari-Sautti after he was completely blind to those appearances.
"Until now, it was just a reaffirmation of a story that had already been notified. Let's discuss the agenda that must be asked."
The people, who were still a lot of trouble, pushed each other perfectly.
This is where the Conference of Parents comes in.
I turned to Ai-Fa and waited for Dari-Sauti's next word as I laid my hands around my beating heart.
