Thus it is the next day.
We were to be summoned to Castle Town, as Camua-Josh had heralded.
The carving limit is four moments up. In view of the hunter's work, he must have set the time for the morning. It would be difficult to get back to Jomtien in the far zazah and souti of the house, but I couldn't complain there.
Moreover, since the street commerce was a firmer business day, it had to ask Yun-Sudra once again for a partitioner. It would have been a holiday if only one more day had slipped back, but mourning it would have been inexplicable.
"The stall is at your disposal. Take care, Asta and the others."
"Thank you, everyone else, thank you"
Say goodbye to Yun-Sudra and the rest of your work, and I'll go back to my mother's house. Over there, Sarris Lang-Fou was taking care of the injured tier.
"Then it's time to leave. Tia, don't push it."
"Hmm. I hope no disaster approaches Asta"
Ten days had passed since she suffered a major hand injury and Tia was feeling completely better.
Nevertheless, there is no way that those wounds will be completely blocked in all that time, and they remain lying on their stomachs now. However, I can walk on my own feet now, and my appetite is completely back. Still, the vibration of the luggage car sounds like a scratch, so these days I've been waiting for my return at Fa's house.
It is Sarris Lang-Fou who is taking care of me. Sarris Run-Fou brought Aim-Fou to Fa's house every day to take care of Tia as she trimmed the fur and knitted the grass cage.
"I = fa should be outside, getting ready for the luggage. Asta, please be careful."
"Yes, then, I'll go"
I also said goodbye to Brave, Zilbe and Durmoor, and I got in the luggage truck that prepared me for I-Fa. It is the parents of Badu-Fou and Baim, who are the spectators, and the men of the offering, who ride in the same luggage carriage.
It was Donda-Lou and Gazran-Rutim, as well as their offerings Rud-Lou and Dan-Rutim, who were waiting for them in Luu's house. Only three chiefs and I were convened today, and Mime and Zida and Schmiral didn't hear from each other.
but different people gave me a great surprise and joy. For some reason, Ama Min-Rutim and Morn-Rutim, as well as the baby Zedias-Rutim, were on the spot. Since Zwei-Rutim and Oura-Rutim would be encouraging you to go down to work in the cabin, there was a lot of family in the Rutim main house except for Ra-Rutim.
"In a rushed time before leaving, I'm sorry. Actually, we're headed to Dom's settlement."
It was Morn-Rutim who explained it to me that way.
It has already been about a month and ten days since the birth of Zedias-Rutim. Using more or less a month as a guide, Rutim and Dom stipulated that they would carry out the act of lending families, but they were forced to delay due to the noise of the Hurricane Party.
On closer inspection, behind the Morn-Rutims, the families of Rutim's division were also lined up. There are two young men and women at a time, and I also found out about the face at the feast. Morn-Rutim will stay in Dom's settlement in a separate frame, so I guess these four are full members of the family exchange.
"Before I left for Dom's settlement, I wanted to say hello to Asta."
"Me and Zedias came in the name of dropping it off. The truth is, I wanted Asta and I-Fa to see Zedias."
Ama Min-Rutim smiles softly and raises the baby in that hand. Zedias-Rutim, who looked a whole lot bigger, looked like he couldn't care less about the liveliness of his surroundings. He was resting perfectly.
"Hmm. You look like you're growing up very healthy."
Ama Min-Rutim nodded "Yes," as Ai-Fa narrowed her eyes and snapped.
"It's hard to understand because I spend all my time with you, but I still feel heavier and heavier every day. Your hair grew richer and richer, didn't it?
"A baby with such a fine body, yes, it is! This one must still be a better hunter than me or Gazlan!
Even Dan-Rutim's high laughter doesn't show him waking up.
The cheeks and others were puffy and swollen, truly fleshy and rich Zedias-Rutim.
"Oh, you look so cute sleeping.... Still, is it my fault that it seems more and more like Dan-Rutim?
"I'm sure it's not my fault. However, there may be aspects to Dan's appearance similar to that of a baby."
Smiling like a prank, Ama Min-Rutim said so.
It is true that Dan-Rutim has such a flair as to make him want to call himself a big baby. Dan-Rutim, made into a light-mouthed story, was laughing happily from the bottom of his heart.
"We must bond with the people of the King's capital so that Zedias and the other young children can live well as people by the woods."
Gazran-Rutim, leaning on Ama Min-Rutim, said so in a quiet voice.
Donda-Lou, who watched these interactions from a little far away, snorts "Hum".
"Then it's time to leave. Encourage those of Rutim who are heading to Dom's settlement to bond with each other."
"Yes, thank you, Donda-Lou"
Morn-Rutim bows his head on behalf of all of us before getting into the luggage car. Ama Min-Rutim and Zedias-Rutim seemed to wait for the Gazran-Rutim's return in the settlement of Luu as they did.
The Rutim family's luggage truck is north, and our luggage truck is south.
Passing the trail at the edge of the forest and arriving at the boarding town, Ai-Fa and Rudd-Lou descend from your podium and take a wide walk down the street. Then, immediately, the people around him called out.
"I heard the story. The Kingsville called me again."
"Be careful. It's like I can't get into some crazy trap."
I guess Malstein, who values political transparency, turned his touch on this day's talks in the Inn Town as well. Ai-Fa had a tough face, and Rudd-Lou had a laid-back face, each responding to the voices of the people.
Once you leave the Inn Town area by the side of the deserted Blue Sky dining room, get on your podium again and run Gill and Lulu lightly. When they arrived in front of the castle gate that way, Dari-Sauti and Graf-Zaza had already arrived and were waiting with the martial officers who greeted them.
"That's all of us. All right, get in this car."
Guided by a martial officer, he is led to a box-shaped Totos car. Gills. Totos by the woods with four heads were to be deposited in the tototos hut behind the castle gate as usual.
"Oh, Lulu pulled the Lulu family's luggage today, so the first four heads that came to the woods are going to have a lot of momentum."
When I said that in the seat of the Totos car, Ey-Fa looked back at me.
"I'm sure you're right, but what the hell is that?
"No, those four heads were originally totototos collected by Camus, weren't they? If you ask me, I'm an old friend, so I thought I'd play a lot of talking."
"... you can't talk to Totos"
"Maybe we just don't understand what Totos is saying. Maybe we can have a conversation."
Ai-Fa glanced kindly at me, concealing her mouth with her hands.
"Don't raise your voice funny, you idiot.... apparently you haven't disturbed your mind either"
"Oh. I'm tight, but I'm not going to feel any more than I need to."
Then, Dan-Rutim, who was in the same car, came all the way up his neck.
"Sure, Asta feels like she's got a tougher side than before. Just like Gazlan said."
"Huh? Gazran-Rutim, what is it?
"Asta was attacked by those big sinners, and she said," I think I've grown up alone. "
I was surprised and looked back at Gazran-Rutim.
But Gazran-Rutim was whispering to Donda-Rou, and he didn't notice this conversation.
(Though I'm not aware that I've grown... Speaking of which, the people of the mountains are dangerous to take me, or something like that)
But I just laugh at the thought of me suddenly awakening the power of the unknown and knocking out the villains. When it comes to what's at stake, exposing me will enrage the people by the woods.
(So if I was the wingman to give my soul back, they'd be responsible for the resentment of the people by the woods all by themselves. If that guy was anything but a star reading move, I guess he felt that horrible fate)
Whatever it was, I was heartily relieved that such fate had not arrived.
If I return my soul, how much pain I = fa will bear. That, I just imagined, makes my heart as heavy as lead. That is to say, I am more like imagining losing Ai-Fa.
(If I were you, I wouldn't be able to stand such a fate. Many times, I have to thank the woods and the Western gods.... of course, to a lot of people who saved my predicament)
Thinking that way, I kept staring at the blurry, eye-fa face.
Then the eye-fa with a lot of red cheeks comes all the way closer to his face.
"... with those eyes, don't look at me"
"What kind of eyes are those?
Ie-Fa whispered his elbow tip on my flank, silently.
The Totos car stopped moving at a time when the pain in its flank was severe.
I was supposed to visit with Dells the other day, the conference hall.
At the head of the martial arts officer, a group by the woods is led inside the building. In front of the door that was thus guided, two men stood, thinking that they were martial officers of the king's capital.
"Here, I'll keep your knife.... And you were talking about Fa's parent Ai-Fa Mitsuhito being asked to be present?
To the words of the martial officer, Ai-Fa nods back "um". This time, like Zida and the Mims, Ai-Fa was not included among the members of the convocation.
Wang Du's martial officer said while looking back at Ai-Fa with an emotionally unreadable look.
"This meeting will be arranged to exchange words with Asta of the House of the Trinity Chiefs and Fa. Otherwise, it is the words of diplomat Fermes that we would like you to refrain from attending human seats."
Ey-fa glanced half-eyed.
But sooner that mouth opens, Berdu-Fow speaks.
"So you can't even allow our presence to be a spectator?
"Yes, only Asta of the House of the Three Chiefs and Fa are allowed to enter the room"
I was, somehow, suddenly as comfortable as being held back by a left jab.
Three of the spectators also include Gazran-Rutim. Not allowing Gazran-Rutim to be present was supposed to be such a pain in the ass for us.
"... if that's an order from a nobleman, we'll obey."
and Dari-Sauti raised his voice that way.
"Let us ask ourselves the nobles of the King's Capital if we can forgive the presence of Ai-Fa and the three spectators. In the meantime, I hope the i-fa wait here."
Ai-Fa was dissatisfied from the bottom of his heart and replied, "I have accepted".
And he's gonna pop his mouth in my ear quickly.
"Be careful, Asta."
"Yeah. So are the i-fa"
Three chiefs hand over the knife and step inside the open door. I had one last glance at Ai-Fa and then followed it.
It's a stunning room with a big table in the middle of the room.
This side is lined with a chair for exactly four people. but sooner than we lowered our hips to it, a lowercase who had refrained at the crossing wall raised his voice.
"Your people will come into the room. Please hold."
At the same time, his last name pulled open the door of his crotch.
First, he appeared a little Polearthly, and he smiled at us.
This is followed by Melfried, the first of its kind, and also by Malstein. The aristocratic side, too, was a few elite today.
Thus, at last, are the nobles of the king's capital.
The first to show up was a man who looked stubborn, a magnificent man.
He is low, quite in a disappointing physique, and may have the impression that he looks similar to Polearth's father. It wore a silk coat that seemed to be superior, but it was an unadorned, qualitative outfit.
And then I saw the next person who showed up - I was supposed to be small and breathtaking.
The man had a beautiful appearance.
(No, but... maybe this is a guy, right?
The person looked so nasty that he wasn't even sure about it.
After all, he is low in height and yet in a relaxed physique. The color of the hair was a beautiful flax color, and putting it up to the waist was also a major factor in the female appearance.
The colour is as white as the people of the south, and their fingertips and so forth are like white fish. Eyes in an incredible shade blink in a much cut up eye, and his face is neat like an elaborate sculpture. Even the Lady of Castle Town couldn't seem to have had such a brilliant appearance so far.
Wrapped around it is a light gray long coat, and embroidery of bands and decorations, etc. are all united in monotone. Even though I didn't wear one of the ornaments, the way I looked didn't catch people's eyes.
At the end of the day, a young man wearing a martial artist's costume and a familiar clerk and figure appear, and the door is closed.
The nobles sat side-by-side in the order in which they entered, and only the young men of the martial arts were upright in the place of the beautiful nobility. The clerk is just spreading the book in formation on a small table prepared for him.
"That's a hiccup, Asta at Fa's house to the three chiefs by the woods. Well, hang them up."
We sat down, too, according to what Malstein said.
Beautiful aristocrats sit in close proximity to my front. The person was quietly looking around at us with incredible shades of eyes.
(Do you see the shade changing due to the light condition? It looks like it's green like it's brown...... I wonder if this is what you call a hazel eye)
While I was thinking about it, Malstein introduced himself to the nobles of the king's capital.
"Sitting on your end is Lord Fermes, a diplomat. Next door is the auxiliary, Lord Aug. Instead of Lord Fermes is Lord Gemd, the warlord.... You were talking about Lord Gemd not having an official position?
"Yeah. Gemd's just my squire, so don't worry about it."
I'm going to breathe again.
Beautiful nobleman, diplomat Fermes, even his voice was beautiful and very pleasant to his ears. It was a husky, a lot like it tangled in my throat - it was a voice when it sounded like a loose cello.
(Besides, is Aug a better aide to you? Fermes looks a lot younger though)
Nevertheless, I had no idea how old Fermes was. Exactly twenty years old would be too old, but it could also look like a teenage girl.
"... that gemd seems to be a lot of skill"
And, from this side, Graf-Zaza spoke.
Don't be afraid of that look with Gibba's fur over his head, Fermes can flutter his mouth.
"I guess it's only an honor for a brave, well-known woodland hunter to have such a word. As Gemd's master, I'm proud of you."
Smiling, Fermes turned out to be such an attractive face.
But after all, this seems to be a man. It took me so long to be sure of that because I was the one who mistakenly saw Deal as a cute boy.
(Probably what you're wearing is usually a man's outfit, too. Even the breasts are peppery... but if they were wearing women's clothes now, they'd never be able to tell)
When I realize it, I just keep an eye on Fermes.
Pulling that gaze off, I decided to reconfirm Graf-Zaza as a gemd.
This one is quite a young man with a puzzling face. I was in my mid-twenties when I was a year old and my black hair wasn't long or short. The brown eyes are lit with a quiet but powerful light, wrapping a body as smooth as Dalm-Lou's in a martial officer's outfit.
As a people in the west, he had a very deep carved face, and although I am not sure what status he is in, the word "your son" was the perfect look.
"This is the three chiefs by the woods, Donda-Lou, Graf-Zaza and Dari-Sauti from the right. And the last seat is Asta in Fa's house."
"Yeah. Glad to finally meet you, folks by the woods"
Fermes grins with a girly face again.
Dari-Sautti mouthed the example as he looked uncomfortable with his head.
"I appreciate you saying that.... By the way, I'd like to make sure before we start the talks, is it really unacceptable to have three of the spectators and Fa's parent, Ai-Fa, present?
"I thought the smallest possible number of people would exchange words more closely, and that's how I worked it out. Is there also a problem?
Fermes tilts her little neck as she rocks her long flax hair. Such tricks were also being played by some girl.
"As a diplomat in the King's capital, I believe I must deepen my definitive bond with the people of the woods. To that end, I first wished that you, the chief, would exchange many words with Asta of the house of the peculiar Fa..."
"No, you can say that, as much as I appreciate it -"
"Besides, you don't have to have the housekeeper or the head of Fa's house present, do you?
In a strange cello melody voice, Fermes softly whispered Dari-Sauti's words.
"We hear that the people by the forest are a clan united by a strong bond. If so, how do we need to see through the deeds of the Trinity Chiefs and Asta? Are you saying that if you don't see it with your own eyes, it's also difficult to believe in the deeds of your compatriots?
"No, that's not what I mean -"
"Besides, it's a big deal that as many as eight people can face each other in these talks. If it was meant to be, one of the representatives of the chiefs by the woods and just Asta in Fa's house would have enough errands. If you're refraining from your important job as a hunter after this, shouldn't you keep your numbers to a minimum?
Dari-Sauti stopped wearing his head and looked straight back at Fermes.
"Even among us, such stories have been raised. But first, I want you to know that the current way was chosen."
"Yes. I hear you have three chiefs and three spectators in attendance at your regular meetings, too. If there's a clear reason, I'd like you to know."
"As you just said, we have something called a giva hunting job, and we're not free with the women. Therefore, we do not want to waste as much time as possible. Six people attend every time because they just thought that they wouldn't have to waste their time."
"I see," Fermes smiled.
"When only one of the chiefs is present, it takes a long time to tell the other families the story using that house as a starting point, right? Especially since Zaza's house covers the northern edge and Sauti's house covers the southern edge, does that have a strong influence?"
"Exactly," he replied, "Dari-Sautti looked a lot nosey. You must have been surprised that Fermes, who had just arrived in Genos yesterday, even grasped the location of Zaza and Sauti's house. I felt the same way.
"But is one of the spectators, Gazran-Rutim, the family of Luu? If you're a family member, you're sure the house is close, so isn't it worth accompanying you all the more?
"Gazran-Rutim is a very thoughtful person, so he was to be chosen as a spectator. Depending on the day, more words are exchanged with the nobles than with the three chiefs."
"I see. That's where the prime minister stands by the woods."
Fermes grins with a grin as he twinkles his hazel eyes.
"The person attracts interest.... So, as far as Pha's parent Ai-Fa is concerned, what do you think? Is the reason for bringing that person to the table in Nabe?
"Fa's parent, Ai-Fa... feels strongly responsible for inviting Asta as a family member by the woods, while at the same time strongly guiding Asta himself. I guess I get extra anxiety because I couldn't get rid of the disturbing relationship with the auditors I visited before"
"Oh, Lord Dreg and Lord Talon seem to have had a lot of trouble."
Fermes lifted the long forehead on his cheek with a graceful fingertip.
"Got it. Today, we invite you to attend those four as well. Please wait while we transport the chair."
Ever since I mentioned it like that, Fermes has turned his eyes to me on the lid.
"You're loved by your parents, aren't you, Asta at Fa's house? I'm very jealous."
"Oh, no, uh... yes, thank you"
It was completely unintentional, so I went awry.
Fermes is smiling loosely as he sees me like that.
It was then that I finally remembered the Fermes character review that Camuer-Josh had mentioned.
(Unusual personality… it doesn't seem easy, this is)
That's how our encounter was fulfilled.
