618 Wedding Banquet ③ - Place of Exchange

Then we didn't get to rendezvous with anyone we knew, even after some kamado tours.

Stick around, not many people I've seen that far. In the first place, the people of Fou's blood and I are having a feast together, and the majority of the members of the stall are invited to this occasion. It was just that there were no people among them who would have wished to accompany them.

Moreover, the people of the Lew and Zaza families had been invited to Birdu-Fow to settle down on the central rug, and those who are Ravitz's blood, have so far not encountered it. So it took me and I-Fa a long time to spend alone.

"That sounds kind of fresh. I can't believe I'm so alone with Ai-Fa, since Tia was molested by George-Zaza during the harvest festival?

When I snuck up and whispered as I waited in the order of some kamadu, Ai-Fa glanced at the jade bug-colored vale.

"... so you're also dissatisfied?

"No way. It's just that I felt too happy to be backwards."

Ai-Fa has smiled all the time, twisting her elbow iron on my flank.

Does that cheek not turn red as a sign that Ai-Fa is also purely biting off this happiness? Thinking about it like that, I'm getting more and more feelings.

"If you run into Day-Ravitz and the others, you're thinking of exchanging words again. Until then, there's nothing wrong with this kind of joy."

"Yeah, well," I replied, "the order in which you cook came around.

It was the elderly women of Ea Fou-Sudra and Fou who were catering. In the iron pan, dishes that could neither be stewed nor simmered were simmered together.

"Oh, Asta to Ai-Fa. This one, they say, is a dish that has been well made lately at Fou's house. If you like, we'd like your feedback."

"Heh, is this dish uniquely made at the Fou family? That's interesting."

I don't recall having spoken of this kind of dish, whether it was dinner that invited the ladies to the Fou family or the last feast. From the thick and reddish broth, the aroma of fruit liquor was strongly felt.

I received a wooden dish from Ea Fou-Sudra, and I will further test the contents. It was Giva's organ that was simmering, and other seemingly added arias, chaches, etc.

(Hmm. I mean, a fruit liquor-based mothpot?)

When it came to motu pans, they were often based more or less on tau oil or tarapa. At least, I've never taught this kind of cooking at a study group at Fa's house. I carried the dish to my mouth with great anticipation.

The broth with lots of fruit liquor is sweet.

Or because the fragrance of Mammalia stood out, I'm sure the water is finished only with fruit liquor. A flavor similar to red wine fell through my nose, followed by a scent of sober vanilla.

"Is this... Leelo's vanilla? Looks like there are a few other kinds of vanilla used."

"Yes, I'm talking about using this because Leelo alone was difficult to reduce the taste of the organ."

Ea Fou-Sudra is the one who married Sudra's house, so I guess she is not standing in the place of developing this dish. The older ladies were more smiling and nodding to show their consent.

"Plus, they seem to be using something that narrows down the fruit of Ramam. You seem to be sweetening with fruit liquor and lamb, not sugar"

Lamam is a fruit similar to an apple. I guess this mellowness is created by being added to the sweetness of the fruit liquor to the sweetness of the lambs.

Several more varieties of vanilla tailor this dish to an ethnic flavour. This was quite a fresh taste, combined with the crisp texture of the small intestine as the main organ.

"Hmm. You even use Giva's brain"

When Ai-Fa, who had the same dish in his mouth, snapped, Ea Fou-Sudra nodded yes.

"They use all the extra parts. Wasn't it in your mouth?

"In any part, Gibba is Gibba. Besides, this flavoring seems to suit the brain as well"

"Really? I'm relieved to hear you say that to Ai-Fa, who usually speaks of Asta's dishes."

The older women, too, smiled happily.

In the meantime, I keep saying, "Aww."

"Meh, you used eyeballs, too. I was a little alarmed."

"Oh, does Asta not like eyeballs?

"No. When eating at home, it was cooking the surface… the eyeballs just boiled without turning on the baking eyes are just crackling"

Having managed to overcome the unique texture and flavor of the eyeballs, I decided to soothe my feelings by rinsing the broth.

"No, but this is delicious. At Fou's house, you had this wonderful dish developed."

"It's not that much of a development. Hey. I tried it differently and it just happened to work."

But I'm sure that's how a unique food culture by the forest develops.

I think my unique arrangement is the last gateway. It was a very pleasant event for me that the original dishes would be prepared in this way, even in the Fou family, which did not have much prominence or number.

"Thank you very much. We'll have another round of Kamado."

"Yes, there are still plenty of them, so eat as much as you want"

Two smiles dropped us off and we stepped out into the square again.

I still thought the Rud-Lu's would be more of a rug, and I looked around, and even Yumi and Terrier-Mass and Jou-Run were seen added there. Rayna-Luu on Rud-Luu and Sphilla-Zaza on George-Zaza are also still on the spot. It is an outfit in which the Birdu-Fow and Lyelpham-Sudra are welcoming it.

"... what are you trying to do, Asta?

"No, I thought it might be time to show up around Rudd-Lou, but you still look excited over there"

"... Hmm. You mean it's time you missed other people."

"I said it wasn't like that. If I could, I'd be alone with Ai-Fa forever."

After I ran my mouth like that, I was supposed to blush alone.

"Oh, no, you can't do that. This is a valuable place to deepen your interaction with the Day-Ravits."

"What are you rushing to do alone?"

Ie-Fa did his hand to his mouth and gave him a laugh when he creaked.

Then he stares at me with a very soft eye.

"The feast is long, so you don't have to rush anything. I guess this is also a guide to the Mother Forest."

"Yeah, well.... somehow today, there's plenty more room for the i-fa"

"What's the spare time? I'm just... biting off the joy of spending time with you."

That said, Ai-Fa smiled calmly.

"But my belly is not at all full yet. Why don't we just head out for the next dish?"

"Oh, yeah"

I walked along with Ai-Fa, filling my chest with something kind of very warm.

The next dish was pasta. Yun-Sudra is boiling the pasta diligently, and the women of the run hang the sauce on it and distribute it to the people.

"Oh, I 'm-fa to Asta. You finally saw me. I'm sorry I took a day off from my street job today."

"You don't have to apologize for anything. I always take care of Yun-Sudra."

Today's pasta seemed to be two types: cream sauce and meat sauce. In addition to Giva Bacon and Nanar, the cream sauce also uses Remirom and Bunasimezimodoki, which resemble broccoli.

"How are the yummies doing? I haven't seen the feast since it started."

As we stood and tasted the pasta, Yun-Sudra asked as we flipped the hourglass.

"First I greeted Joo-Run's family and now I seem to have settled down on that rug over there. I wonder if they're bonding extremely well."

"Really? Above all, then. The woodland people who hate Yumi won't be there."

Yun-Sudra was relieved.

She also loosens her sidetail hair and wraps around her banquet costume. The loveliness of appearance would be as unbeatable as Raina-Lou's. It is also obvious that Joo-Run, who didn't even look at such a cute girl, will be called a freak by Yumi.

(Can't I talk about people, too? Neither me nor Joo-Run could look at the other women because they were distracted by I-Fa)

However, there is no doubt about the fact that Yun-Sudra is exceptionally attractive, even if the woodland ladies were full of beauty. As long as he was willing to do that to himself, he was not supposed to be disaffected by the person at the wedding.

(You just don't feel like it in person, do you? Raina-Lou too, that's with me)

After all, tonight's feast feels strongly conscious about the new wedding mastery. The majority of guests were unmarried young men and women, and is it possible that a new love will sprout as a result of this?

(Right. Me and Ai-Fa aren't other people, are they? Well, it doesn't seem that way right now about a family that brings us a wedding)

In the meantime, the nearby clan is settling into a breeze of watching me and Ai-Fa go away. Besides, that kind of air felt propagated by the families involved in the commerce of the stalls.

In doing so, I don't even think that Luu or Zaza or Ravitz would be eligible from the outset, and the people of Die or Lehn are humble, so they would make such an offer. At least, it seemed like nothing to worry about for today.

(Well, it's just a matter of perseverance to say no to what offer you got ahead)

With that in mind, I stole an eye-fa side.

Rubbing the pasta of the cream sauce with the broken wooden spoon ahead, Ai-Fa didn't even look at this one and said, "What's going on?" He asks.

"Yes, no, it's nothing. You know I've seen you a lot."

"There are no hunters who don't feel the sight of the humans by their side."

Either because Yun-Sudra was by his side, or Ei-Fa took it in a vicious manner. It was a face.

But no matter what facade you have, it doesn't make a difference that Ai-Fa is attractive. As I narrowed my eyes to the sparkle of clear petals embellished in that hair, I was to sneak up on my happiness again.

When we finished eating the two kinds of pasta, our tour of Kamadu seemed to be over.

Returning the emptied wood dish to Yun-Sudra, Ai-Fa gives a strange voice, "Well".

"In less than half an hour, it will be fitting when the dance of the ladies begins. Before I do, I think I'll have a word with Day-Ravitz and the others, okay?

"Yeah. I didn't run into you once just now. Kind of a shame, but let's do that."

In the second half, I let my voice whisper so that the people around me wouldn't hear me.

Ai-Fa sneaks up on my leg with very little force, and then turns back to the ritual fire.

"Do you suppose to come to them? Follow me, Asta."

"Yeah. Does Ai-Fa know where the Day-Ravits are?

"I have an approximate idea. At least stay where you can see it from here?

That being said, it is a feast gathered by 70 people. With all this fire on fire, I couldn't tell much.

With me like that, Ai-Fa approaches the central ritual fire. Sliding through its side from the opposite side of the pedestal where the bride and groom were sitting, Ai-Fa seemed to be headed for the kame on the diagonal.

In the process, I was able to verify that I had made the right decision. Before that, I discovered a swirling blonde male figure.

He was taller than average, so he was able to find him quickly. Instead, all three of his blood families were in abundance.

"You guys seem to be enjoying the feast, too. I'll be out of your way a lot, Day-Ravitz."

Day-Ravitz, who was scratching the contents of a wooden dish, creeps this one out in a grumpy manner. Its companion, Lilli-Lavitz, was saluting him with a serene face.

"If you know it's out of the way, don't come near me. You and I had a lot of conversation at the feast the other day, didn't we?

"I thought that wasn't enough, and this is how I was supposed to go out. Even if you don't care about us, you don't have to avoid it that way."

"Hmm. You're just gonna let us get away with this?

"Even if you weren't running around, it doesn't make any difference what you were avoiding? Otherwise, there's no way we're going to see that for once."

Apparently, I've been looking for Day-Ravitz and the others all along while I was touring Ai-Fa Hakamadu.

So, could the Day-Ravits have consciously taken a position on the diagonal? Beyond the ritual fire burning in the center, your appearance would not have been in sight if you had done so.

"Oh, Asta... duh, thank you very much..."

And Malfira-Naham, who had refrained instead of his brother, had raised his voice as such in tears.

Apparently he was impressed with the taste of the feast dish again. There were tears left behind under his eyes and cheeks.

"... we were bonding with the rest of our clan. Isn't it disrespectful to disturb it?

With wrinkles around his forehead, Day-Ravitz abandoned him that way.

Before that there were many people, but it was four young men and women who were on their way with Day-Ravitz and others. One of them is Fay-Baim, the feast costume.

"Oh, were you all from Baym and Dagola? Were you in the middle of a conversation with Day-Ravitz and the others?

"Yes, I was exchanging a few words because I had been there before this."

Fay-Baim is a bit of a skeletal figure, similar to his father, who is a frivolous parent. Besides, he was the type who hardly ever smiled and didn't feel feminine glamour because he was always a lukewarm face.

But also, such a banquet costume for women is quite interesting. He loosens his hair, which is usually neatly put together, wraps around a jade bug-colored veil, and wears lots of ornaments based on flowers and nuts. Now he thought that if he showed one of his smiles, he would be very attractive.

The accompanying young men were both first faces, but the women of Dagola are members participating in the stalls. The person smiled at me and introduced me to the man.

(This is also the first time you have said that there are no Baym parents in a place like this. After all, you've been putting out unmarried men)

One of the young men was comparing us to the people of Ravitz with his eyes rounded properly.

"But nothing, we weren't talking so much into it. If you like, why don't you two talk with me at Fa's house?

"If you could do that, I'd appreciate this one. Is there anything different about Day-Ravitz, too?

Day-Ravitz deepened his forehead wrinkles as Ai-Fa called it that with a resolute face.

"It's not like you guys to back off and say there's a difference. Why are you following me so persistently?

"Of course, I want to deepen ties with Ravitz's blood family, but that's why. I didn't get a chance like that with you."

After stating it that way, Ai-Fa looked more at the Fay-Baim's.

"Of course, that's the same thing with Baim's blood family. I would be happy if we could deepen our ties in this place."

"So why don't you calm down here? We were just finishing up our feast dish and thinking about taking a little rest."

Unlike the head of the main house, Baim's men seemed to be a lot more casual.

To that word, Day-Ravitz has turned out to be completely like chewing up a bitter bug.

"Then you should deepen your ties with Baim and Fa. There's no reason for us to join in there."

"For a reason, there will be. Isn't Ravitz's blood family being scorned by the Chiefs as well, so as to dissolve the old cliché with Fa's house?

…………

"We're brothers by the woods. Even Ravitz and Fa should be reconciled with the Luu and Zaza families, which used to have bad luck."

Baym's men seemed to state so out of very pure goodwill.

When this happens, I guess Day-Ravitz can't sweep the word away either. Day-Ravitz sat roughly down on the rug laid on which side of the Kama, sighing with full force.

"Damn, what is it? … even if one or both of our compatriots don't care?

"Such words should be spoken with a better acquaintance with your affair. We only look at each other when we still count."

Following Ey-Fa, who said so, we also lowered our hips in turn. In total, a large area of ten people, the rug was quickly filled.

"Speaking of which, Ravitz and Baim were both family members who differed in the conduct of Fa's house. Even more so, this kind of interaction will not be wasted."

The men of Dagola, slightly older than the men of Baim, said so. This one seems somewhat of an exaggerated temperament.

"Well, we weren't willing to complain about something called delicious food because we were just making a difference to something called interacting with people in town. I enjoyed the feast today."

"Well, thanks to deeper interaction with people in town, there seems to have been some really troublesome noise."

That's what Dei-Ravitz said as he filled the earthen bottle with fruit liquor.

Dagola's men, laughing "Humph," tilt the earthen bottle themselves.

"But still, if the noise has subsided, isn't it a celebration? Whether or not to allow the dowry is up to Fou's parents to decide. We just have to see it through."

"Right. Besides, from what I hear from the ladies, a daughter named Yumi seems to have a pretty straight temper. I'm a little caught up in taking Genos' laws lightly, but, well, if you change your mind properly, you won't have a problem."

Unsurprisingly, Baym and Dagola's men seem to be mouth-watering, and Ai-Fa, who is not good at large numbers of conversations, seemed to have a hard time keeping his mouth shut.

So let me speak up on behalf of my parents.

"Even at Baim's and Dagola's houses, you were out of touch about Yumi. Was that what the Fay-Bames were telling you?"

"Of course it is. Well, I didn't interact so much with my daughter named Yumi that I couldn't even tell her a big story."

"No, still, it's a big difference between listening and not listening. For example, a daughter named Yumi, at a feast held at the Lou family, advised that the young children who were kept at home should also be fed sweets."

Saying so, Baym's men smiled frankly.

"It's not quite something we can safely advance to a human being in the chieftaincy muscle. I guess that kind of place is unique to the people in town, and I could also know that it has a tender temper to think of young children."

"Hmm. Hitting the human of the chieftaincy muscle and feeding a young child under the age of five to a feast dish is not the same thing as a woodland lesson."

"Right. But the fact that the people of the Lou family followed it must be because they admitted she was right. Then perhaps he could have shown the right path more because he was a man who was not deeply attached to the Forestside lesson."

He was a Baym man with a smile and an innocent laugh, quite sharp analytical skills.

(I knew there were a lot of people around the woods. as long as this is comforting)

While I was thinking about that, I-Fa spoke with a flash of clearance.

"Is Day-Ravitz also listening from his partner about Yumi? You're not comfortable with Yumi dowry?

"... if it's pleasant or offensive, of course it's offensive. At least I'm not willing to allow Ravitz's blood to imitate that."

"Hmm. Still, it wasn't enough to speak out against it at the Conference of Parents, you mean?"

"I think that's right. Until I thought if you had a family, you could do whatever you wanted. You're the most obnoxious one."

After stating so, Day-Ravitz turned his eyes to Marfila-Naham all the time.

"... I don't care, when are you gonna finish eating? That's the dish we received at the same time, isn't it?

"Huh? Ah, yes. I'm sorry. Oh, to be such a delicious dish, it's a shame to rush to eat..."

Malfira-Naham was carrying only one wooden dish. What was stored there seemed to be 'Stir-fried Pepereva', stir-fried in Hoboi's oil.

"Damn, you're the one who can't get rid of the kid's face forever. If that's the case, your parents won't allow you to get married."

"Ha, yes. Oh, as long as you're ashamed."

Malfira-Naham got sober, so I accidentally raised my voice in defense.

"But Malfira-Naham, as the Kamadu number, seems quite talented. I'm sure Lily-Lavitz told you, but thanks to her, my shop is a lot of help."

Really, Day-Ravitz's little eyes are turning to me.

"You can't find someone for a wedding just because of Kamado's skill. Or are you trying to tell me that my eyes and those of Naham's parents are cloudy?

"No, there is no annihilation either. I just want to thank you for keeping someone as good as Malfira-Naham."

Then his brother, who was sitting in the place of Malfira-Naham, loosened his length.

A pale blue eye stares down at me from a far height.

"Duh, what's up? Did I make you feel bad about something?

That's how I asked, knowing it was futile.

Then - that big mouth, which was always perfectly closed, began to move badly cursorily.

"Of Fa's house, Asta......"

"Yes. What is it?

"... you wish to be dowry to Murphyra...?

It is as heavy as a ground beep, an unreadable voice of emotion.

I shook my head, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no."

"I just praised her for her skill as Kamadoku's number. I apologize for any misunderstandings."

"... so you don't see Murphyra or anything like that in your eyes...?

Its face, like a lean Moai statue, remains, after all, faceless.

Then, as Malfira-Naham panicked, he took it to its elongated arm.

"To, what is your brother saying all of a sudden? A., Asta has an eye-fa, so I told you not to worry about that, right?

"Hey," Ey-Fa was reflexively raising his voice.

The cheeks are slightly red.

"What the hell are you talking about? Let's not talk about crazy things."

"Oh, was that crazy? also, i'm sorry. Or the ladies who help you with the stall business and the work you do down there, they told me that I should never give a damn, because I wonder if I would be bound up with Asta any time soon."

Ai-Fa has turned his eyes to mine as he blushes.

"Oh, I don't know anything. Malfira-Naham, is that a true story?

"Yes. Well, that too, in separate places, separate women told me the same story. So, so, I was wondering if it must be a true story... but maybe it wasn't?

I couldn't have answered that differently.

or so, it is the extreme of shame to admit that it is. As a result, I was supposed to blush with Ai-Fa.

"What, I knew that was the story? Well, I guess it's nothing strange."

It was Dagola's men who laughed while saying it that way.

"From what I can tell, I think you two look great. Plus, if you're faking it, there's going to be a wedding story about each of them. Isn't it a nice bunch of ladies trying to prevent it beforehand?"

That is certainly true, but after all, our shame was not going to ease.

Comparing us like that, Day-Ravitz was sniffing "Hum".

"You have a good year, what are you blushing at? If you're going to give me a wedding, stop working as a hunter."

"Ya, it's weird! I'm not gonna put the knife down for a while!

As for Ai-Fa, that seemed to be the best defense.

The pleasant feast also seems to have finally become a pleasure.
