622 Unexpected visitors ③ ~ Thoughts ~

The following day, on the twelfth day of the white moon.

We got word from Malstein that we were headed to Castle Town in a luggage truck.

Since this is an extraordinary official meeting, all the heads of the three clans and the parents of Gazran-Rutim, Birdu-Fou and Baim will be present. In addition, one hunter at a time, their offering, added me and Ai-Fa, for a total of fourteen.

Talks in the castle town start early in the morning so as not to stifle the hunter's work. To that end, I left the stall business to Yun-Sudra again.

In the meantime, I left it to my job to participate in the "Westwind Pavilion" talks, and this time I left it to your work as a whole. As far as I was concerned it was painful, but fortunately, Yun-Sudra was smiling at me with great pleasure.

"I always give back the same words, but it is of the utmost pride to me that Asta can be entrusted with that much work. Never imitate to disappoint Asta, so please do your job as well."

Getting Yun-Sudra to say that was a thankful story for me too.

Also, as far as your work is concerned, Tul-din will help you as always, so there is nothing to worry about. Try the other Kamadoku who have been training, but it's the same. I was supposed to leave while those comforting people dropped me off.

"But no way, yesterday today, I didn't expect it to be a meeting all of a sudden. Does this mean that Malstein is also taking a heavy look at this one?

Ask Gazran-Rutim, who met and rode in the settlement of Lough, "What do you think?" The word returned.

"I just heard from Lyada-Lu that it didn't seem that serious on that side. Maybe you just happened to be free today."

"Really? Whatever it is, I just hope it subsides round..."

While I stated that, I caught a glimpse of Donda-Lou in formation across the street.

The three chiefs also only said, "I know what Musul said." Whether Musul identified himself as a man worthy of amnesty or not, he could not get his heart out of that tough lion-like face.

When we arrived in front of the castle gate that way, we had already refrained from facing Sautti and Zaza on the spot. Far from home, they should have left the house almost before dawn. But of course, there was no such person on the spot as was biting down a yawn.

Graf-Zaza and Dari-Sauti will be face-to-face since the Conference of Parents. But before that, I didn't see him for much longer, so I don't feel like hissing that much. Graf-Zaza, as always, was regarded as comparable in force to Donda-Lou, and Dari-Sautti was drifting through a soggy, big rocky piercing.

Okay, let's go.

I switched cars through talking to the martial artist who was waiting for me in front of the jump bridge. It's familiar to me, but today it was different. Being present at the official meeting between the three chiefs and the nobility was not a story that could have been so for me.

(And today, the lord himself is going to be in, not the mediator, Melfried. Has this been the case since the auditors in Wang Du?)

What led us to that was a building called the Congregation Hall, right next to Castle Genos.

This building was also used when I was questioned by the auditors of the King's Capital. It is also this place where the Three Chiefs usually meet with Melfried and others.

Proceed with the martial officer's guide to the building assembled with grey bricks. Two martial officers stood in front of the door where they arrived.

"I've been waiting for you. Only eight people will come to the meeting, please come through."

The hunters of the offering, headed by Rudd-Lou, are waiting on this occasion.

The person entering the room must keep the knife here. However, he was not instructed to keep even the hunter's clothes, as he had done during previous interrogations.

(Well, the auditor was the partitioner before this. Does this mean this is the original form of the talks)

With that in mind, I was supposed to knock over that door with Ai-Fa.

In the middle of the room, there is a huge table. The room seems different from the last time an auditor called me in. I guess this is the room originally used in the meeting with the Trinity Chiefs.

"Your people will be here shortly. Please sit down and wait."

That's what the samurai in the guide said. The tone was also polite to treat the Guest, unlike previous martial arts officers.

Then they lose so much that they are informed of the entry of nobles. The chiefs greeted their entry by taking their seats sooner than the martial arts officers would greet them.

Three people have entered the room: Malstein, Polearth and Tolst.

Tolsto is the guardian of Refraia, so he must have been summoned. Face to face is crackling, but he still looked like a tired pug dog, whose eyes lay weak.

After all, Pol Earth is looking as usual, smiling funny-fuckingly. The moment I saw that loose smile, I felt my strained heart loosen up a lot.

"You kept me waiting. Melfried, the mediator, is not here today, so I'm here to join you. Originally, Melfried told me there was a chief by the woods as my deputy."

After all, Mulstein seemed to be more of an attitude than when the auditors were present. On that surface, a relaxed smile is spread.

"Come on, sit down. I don't know if it's been since the meeting where we exchanged auditors for Wang Du. … Everyone seems to be breathing badly and most importantly"

"This time, I am very grateful for accepting your sudden offer"

Dari-Sauti, who still plays the role of response among the three chiefs, was still responding that way, smiling loosely.

"By the way, hasn't that Musul come along yet? Today I heard he was going to cross paths."

"Oh. He's holding them back in the other room. There were a lot of things I wanted to check before I brought him in."

Malstein slowly looked around at us as he twisted his shapely moustache.

"Today's agenda is about the treatment of a man named Musulu... I hear that the forest chiefs have already met with him. So, you're saying you've come to the conclusion that you should make his hopes come true?

"No, I couldn't come to that conclusion yesterday in one day. Yes, that's why I wanted to hear your opinion."

Don't be frightened, Dali-Souti overlaps words.

"First, I want to be the first to have a meal. The Marquis of Genos saw it as dangerous to bring that person closer to Leflaia and kept him away from the Count Turan family... so can we make a mistake?

"Oh, right. The servants of the Count Turan family at the time were each determined to be treated after inquisiting their sins and the dangers ahead. It was, wasn't it, Polearth?

"Yes, but there was no such thing as a clear sinner among the martial officers and squire who worked at Count Turan's house. It was some of the people in the protection militia and a bunch of 'black wind' dying criminals who were doing dirty work on orders from Cycleus and Silhouel, so no one knew the faces behind their masters, did they?"

With the original written statement, Polearth said so freshly.

"At the time, however, the Count Turan family was in such a precarious state that any person likely to adversely affect the new princess Lifreia and her guardian, Lord Tolsto, would be distracted. Or did you refresh your face after you moved all your martial officers and squires to a spare place? Only the maiden of Chiffon-Cher, a people of the North, and the example of Sanjula were left in Count Turan's house."

"Hmm. You allowed that Sanjula to stay under Princess Lifreia because it should be placed in a spot of sight rather than let go of the wild. As for the northern people's maid of honor... does that simply mean that the pickup didn't show up?

"Yep. And the Cycleuses didn't see the people of the North as equals, so they wouldn't have put a single stick of evil in charge. Even if she resents Cycleus and the others for any reason, she can't possibly think about saving herself."

Saying it with a serious face, Polearth turned the writing around.

"And well, so far, it's a prerequisite story... in which that person named Musul, among other things, will be in a position of severe disposition. Amongst the martial arts officers directly under Count Turan's family, he was the only one who lost his original position, wasn't he? Otherwise, all human beings spend time as martial officers elsewhere."

"Is that, after all, because that man committed the great sin of exposing Asta?

To Dari-Sauti's words, Polearth nods "Yes".

"Other than that, his temperament or personality is also inquisitive. If he was in a position where he had sinned at his husband's behest, I don't think he would have been subjected to severe sanctions so far... he seems to have a loyalty to Princess Lifreia to an unusual extent"

"Hmm. Not to Cycleus, but to Princess Lifreia."

Polearth nodded again, "Yes," as Malstein clasped his words as a precaution.

"The testimony of the time from Sanjula is also noted here in relation to one case in which they took Lord Asta. Uh, Sanjula said," When I received the order not to invite Asta from Fa's house in confidence, I decided to cooperate because I was afraid that leaving it to one Musul would be a noise to see blood. "

"The noise of seeing blood. Asta was protected by the hunters by the woods at the time, so it must have been the blood of Musul himself."

Is it meant to be black humor, Malstein said so with a smile on his face?

Polearths has an affectionate laugh, "Ha ha".

"So, various testimonies were taken from people other than Sanjula… Anyway, a person named Musul was seen as in danger of not hating any sin for Princess Lifreia. So, having been dismissed from his position as a martial arts officer, he was forced to live as a servant of the Baron family with no connection or itch with the Count Turan family."

"Hmm. Then why isn't Sanjula the only one allowed to go off the hook? I don't hate the danger of any sin, but Sanjula must have had it."

Rubbing his square jaw, Dari-Sauti said so freshly.

"That's right," Polearth said, slightly tilting his neck.

"It just adds something called temperament and character to it. Sanjula seems to have a calm and sedentary temper, but a person named Musul is regarded as a brief and violent person. For example, if Princess Lifreia is slandered by someone, there is a danger that she will not be able to contain her anger."

"Oh, speaking of which, you were about to be attacked by a muscle, too, right, Polearth?"

"Yes, in doing so, thanks to Lord Ai-Fa's brilliant defeat, we got nothing."

Polearth smiled and looked more at Ey-Fa. Ai-Fa, who had pressed him against him, is quietly giving back his courtesy.

"For now, that's how it's been so far. To be honest, I didn't expect him to make this kind of noise. After a year, he couldn't abandon his obsession with Princess Lifreia."

"That seems sticky and not surprising. Didn't I tell you I would never return him to my husband again when I kept him away from Count Turan's house?

"Yeah, that's true... but once he's moved to the extra house, there's no reason for him to be returned to Count Turan's house. If it's normal, it seems difficult to keep hope like that."

"If there is a glimmer of hope, it seems rather that we should not give up hope. … well, there is no point in saying that to each other"

Dari-Sauti, with a much troubled face, put his arms together like a maruthi.

"For example, we let the Sung people cut off the edge of blood. No matter how much they change their minds in the future, it will never be enough to get Mr. Sung back. But that muscle wasn't completely cut off from the Count Turan family in that way, was it?

"Yeah, well, that's right. With regard to the crime of taking Lord Asta, it has already been redeemed, in the form of the punishment of whipping and the deprivation of official office. There's no reason to punish you any more."

"But the one offers to work under Refraia again. What do you think of this matter?

"That's... I'm just a mediator's aide to the people by the woods, so you're not in a position to express an opinion, are you? I would like to leave this to the discretion of Lord Genos and Lord Tolst."

"I believe that the mood of the people involved in this matter is the key. So first of all, you should hear Tolst's mood."

"Wow, is that my mood?," Tolst opened his eyes.

"It is an extremely important time for me that… Princess Lifreia has just allowed me to socialize… I personally do not wish to welcome such a dangerous person into the Count Turan family…"

"So, are we going to turn off Musul's offer?

"Oh, no, but I haven't even exchanged words with that person named Musul yet. By the time I was elected as my guardian, the person had already been kept away from the Count Turan family…"

Tolst is letting his gaze wander as he warms up. Even to him, I guess this was a water event in his sleeping ear. Even I was like Tolst yesterday.

"So how's everyone in Asta and by the woods feeling? Have they already forgiven Musul for his sins?

In the wake of Malstein's words, Dari-Sauti has turned his gaze towards me. I put my spine down and say, "Right."

"If it's just my personal mood, I don't feel like resenting Musul. He has already been punished, so sin should have been redeemed with it.... I just can't state that I should let go and accept the offer because I don't really know what kind of person he is. So first, we want to know more about his personality and emotion."

"I mean, if Musul is a man of enough credibility, you can accept that offer, right?

"Yes, of course, if Refraia herself accepts it, but... what does Refraia think about this matter?

"She said it was up to us. Sounds like you're the one who made Musul a sinner, so you're not in a position to forgive it."

So is Lefreia happy with Musul's offer herself? I don't really understand what the relationship is between Refraia and Musul.

"So what about I-Fa? In this case, they seem most angry."

With Malstein smiling gracefully, he turns his eyes to Ai-Fa.

Ie-Fa had replied to sigh as he stood still in his face.

"I'm angry because he messed up and put Asta in danger. I have no idea what he's offering."

"You got nowhere to think?

"Hmm. If a person who knows him well sees no danger in returning him to Refraia, then that would be the right path. I don't know much about him. It doesn't seem like I'm talking."

"Right. The people of the woods valued fairness more than the individual's mood. I was shallower when I asked about my mood."

Malstein laughed aloud, comparing himself to Polearth and Tolst.

"After all, it seems that it is we who rule Genos who are in a position to make the decision. But Polearth thinks it's not a matter for him to speak up, if only the forest people were convinced, right?

"Yes, I am only an adjunct to the mediator. Until Marquis Genos and the Moribe have a different opinion, we don't think we're going to make it."

"So what about Tolst? As Princess Lifreia's guardian, I'd like you to reveal your views a little bit now."

"Wow, my personal feelings are just as I said. Just..."

and Tolst shivered his saggy cheeks slightly like a pug dog.

"... I just believe that it was the presence of the Chiffon-Cher samurai and Sanjula that Princess Lifreia was able to regain her right mind. Of course, I have no doubt that the warmth of those by the woods melted Princess Lefreia's stubborn heart… Still, without the presence of Chiffon-Cher and Sanjula, it seems that Princess Lefreia's heart would have frozen cold again"

"Hmm. So?

"So... if the person named Musul is also the kind of person who can give Princess Lefreia peace of mind... we should not do anything about the offer without exchanging words."

"Right," Malstein smiled.

"Sure, because neither I nor I have yet even seen the face of the man named Musul. In order to find the right path, it is time to call Musul to this occasion"

When Malstein sent his gaze, one of the martial officers left the room.

Then so much less, the martial officer takes Musul and returns. Taking off his hooded cape, Musul appeared on the spot in the attire of a squire often seen in the castle town.

Though the attire of his squire, he is a proper figure, because it is the costume of the castle town. but because Musul himself had grown a mustache with his bulky hair, and yet he had a sneaky, snappy face, he looked kind of unbalanced.

"Welcome… I am Musul…"

"Hmm. He's got a pretty good physique, but a lot of it. Let's do it. So dissatisfied with the current treatment."

Malstein cut it out like that all of a sudden, so I accidentally gave it a little bit. Ai-Fa is frowning at Urunou, and Donda-Lou and Graf-Zaza are glaring at each other as they explore.

"He says he wants to go back to Count Turan's house, etc. while he's guilty of a great crime. I even heard that you broke the ban to stay away from the people by the woods and even put them under Asta in Fa's house... so what's the difference?

"Yes. But I..."

"I haven't heard the valve on that one. Marquis Genos, you are a much more disgraceful man to whisper my words."

Malstein has taken it. It's facetious, and he keeps vomiting spicy words. The pitiful muscle had turned bright blue in an instant, and he was eye-catching like a cornered beast.

(No way, are you trying to provoke a muscle and expose its nature? That's a little... I think it's dangerous)

If Musul loses me here, everything will be over. I was supposed to hold a sweat in my hand and protect Musul, who began to tremble in defiance.
