"I see! Whatever it is, it's more than anything else if your bond with Lau-Ray has deepened!
It was Dan-Rutim who laughed so loudly.
The location is Kamadu cabin in Rutim's main house.
26th of the Black Moon. I've been visiting this place since noon to celebrate Dan-Rutim's birthday.
The four guests, including Lau-Ray, went home to their respective homes this morning. Ai-Fa is supposed to rush over here as soon as he finishes his giva hunting job. Since the stall was also closed today, it was up to me to take only two hours from Jomtien into my personal training, and then bring Gilru and Zilbe with me to the land.
"Besides, you're talking about Lough-Ray raising his arm a lot too. Would they be able to do each other's work with someone they've never done before?
"Yes, it still felt like Rud-Lu or Sin-Lu could beat me once every three times... but we talked about not getting any teeth at all here these days, so I guess we could have grown a lot"
Moreover, against Zida and Mida-Lou and Dalm-Lou, he had beaten out quintiles of battle. This does not mean that these three are inferior to Rud-Ruh and Sin-Ruh, it seems, but is the difference resulting from compatibility.
Whatever, Rau-Ray was the only one who worked one after the other in a state of continuous war, so it could be considered a good enough track record. It is all the more so if we consider it the fruit of practically three days of training.
"Hmm, that's interesting! Haven't the parents of Ai-Fa and Sudra joined them there?
"Yes, because you two were holding off on hunters' jobs.... but only a young hunter named Joo-Run was competing against everyone gathered on the spot."
The results were also much more interesting. Jou-Run beat Rudd-Lou and Sin-Lou and Zida while losing to Lau-Rou and Darmu-Lou and Mida-Lou. It was also a definite good example that the power comparison of hunters depended on compatibility.
"This guy is awesome - hard to fight! Something's getting away with the oiled snake!
"Mm-hmm. Sounds like a way of fighting, no matter where, that reminds me of Gillan-Lillin"
Rud-Luu and Sin-Luu stated so in a grossly regrettable manner.
"It's easier to fight a smaller opponent than you," Joo-Run grinned swallowingly, "but even Rau-Ray is a smaller opponent than Joo-Run, and he doesn't have any hands or feet at all for Ai-Fa or Lyelfam-Sudra. Aside from my physique, I guess there is something called compatibility.
"You won with Joo-Run, didn't you, Rau-Ray? If you beat your opponents who beat Rudd-Lou and others, that's a big deal! I had sex with Rudd-Lou at the Harvest Festival too, but he had his arms up amazingly!
"Yes. Now it was going to be a momentum that the Rudd-Loux and the others were going to catch up at Run's house. Isn't it quite meaningful to train with someone who's not a blood family?"
"Uhm! If Zedias was here with me, I would have liked to stay at Fa's! If I get a chance, I hope to make it up to EY-FA again!
Then Zwei-Rutim, who was silently listening to this interaction, spoke in a sigh.
"Next to people doing their jobs, it's a stupid big voice, sir. If this one's crazy, what are you gonna do, sa?
"Hmm? Oh, with all the hunter talk, don't you guys get bored! Okay, let's talk about cooking!
"I'm complaining about how big my voice is, not what I'm talking about, yo."
Zwei-Rutim wrinkled his nose before returning his gaze to the work bench. He's a keen sarcastic Zwei-Rutim, so maybe he actually just wanted to join the conversation. That's what I thought and decided to change the subject.
"Speaking of which, Rau-Ray also went to Rutim's house, didn't he? He praised Zwei-Rutim for everything."
"Hung. Wasn't that a mistake you made, sir?"
"That's not true. You said he seemed to have a different wit than Yamil-Ray again. I wonder if you've even seen me account for copper coins."
"... compared to that Ray's parents, probably humans would be smart sa"
Oura-Rutim watches with a gentle look at Zwei-Rutim, who turns to him. Ama Min-Lutim had to take care of Zedias-Rutim, so the three of us kept her today.
Incidentally, on the last birthday, guests were also invited by the blood clan to perform a grand feast. but this is a small dinner party due to a very limited facial rash. This was a measure because Dan-Rutim withdrew from the seat of his parents.
"Speaking of which, is Gazran-Rutim another settlement in Sauti?
"Mm-hmm. Seems like there's been a lot of change over there, so they're out to see that. A few days ago, Donda-Lou offered to go out."
It is about the day Rau-Ray pushed him into Fa's house. Donda-Lou was taking Rudd-Lou and Gazlan Rutim out to the settlement of Sauti.
It was also not precisely the settlement of Sauti that went out to inspect what was going on in the streets built ahead. As I've heard before, there's a new stuffing station for guards. It's a lot of distance from the settlement, so it wasn't much to be shaken out, but the fact that something like that would be built around the woods was supposed to be such an event.
"According to Gazlan's story, you're about to rub the same thing east of the forest. Isn't that a big deal?"
"Yeah. Ultimately, it seems like the plan is to create a facility for travelers to stay there, so that they can develop into a lodging town. Totally, utterly unbelievable."
"Hun. What kind of person wants to live in, building a town in such a despicable place, sir? Didn't the nobles of Genos try to send the slaves of Turan to Jagal in the first place?
Because Zwei-Rutim had spoken, I said, "Right." When I get off guard, I'm going to stick with Dan-Rutim and just the two of you and thrive.
"So the missing holes of the people of the North are thinking of gathering new inhabitants and filling them, Sho? Humans don't grow like arias and poitans, so can they be collected so easily, sir?"
"Sure. Well, building a new lodging town, what a long term plan it takes years, so I guess it's still too early to worry. I'm sure Turan needs to recruit more quickly."
"Nevertheless, the story of the people of the North moving to Jagal is still undecided, isn't it? If that's what you decided, you can just send him out!
"Sounds like you also need Jagal's approval for that. Even over there, all of a sudden, you welcome hundreds of human beings as compatriots, and if they say anything, they're going to have a lot of trouble coping with it."
Still, as soon as the acknowledgement of Fermes came out, they heard that a messenger had been sent from Genos to the capital of the king of Jagal. If it is a single ride of early Totos if it is not an early horse, they will be able to go back and forth with the King's Capital of Jagal in roughly a month, so they will be able to deliver a reply at the earliest.
"Speaking of Jagal, the merchant who sells that thing called Miso should be fit when it's time to come to Genos, right?
By Dan-Rutim, the topic is replaced by Pompom. I nodded yes so I wouldn't drop that ball.
"You said around the end of the black moon, so it should be about time. Did Dan-Rutim know the Dells?
"I don't know. According to Donda-Lou and the others, they seem quite delightful.... Whatever it was, it was a story of only a few misos left. If I run out of these, I guess I can't even afford them until a new portion arrives already?
"Right. I hear they sold out early, even in Castle Town."
"This miso seems like a pretty big ingredient! Ama Min's mouth doesn't seem to have any worse effects on the milk, and I'd love to be able to buy more at Rutim's house!
Like that, I was able to have a good time during cooking.
As the sun sets to the west, Gazran-Rutim first returns from the settlement of Sauti, then Ai-Fa comes. Finally, with the arrival of Morn-Rutim and two guests from the northern settlement, today's participants are finally set to flourish.
"All the way, thank you for your hard work! I'm so glad to have Dom's person as a guest again!
That's what Dan-Rutim said as he settled his hips in the hall while Kamado's turn prepared for the meal.
The two guests are, of course, both Dick-Dom and Rem-Dom names. Lem-Dom, who increases his success every time he sees it, was grinning bitterly, looking back at Dan-Rutim's smile.
"That's a thankful word, but it's not too obvious to call a guest on the birthday of a previous parent, is it? Is this some sort of Lew blood lesson?
"No, the learning has nothing to do with it! This is what I like and do!
"I thought you would. It's hard for you to have a runaway family, isn't it?
That was the word directed at Gazran-Rutim, the current head of household. Gazran-Rutim responds with a calm smile.
"When I look at my father Tata Dan's happy appearance, I get a happy feeling too. I hope you can share that feeling with your guests."
"Oh yeah. Parents and children who really don't look alike."
At that point, I'm ready for this one.
The total is twelve. Gazran-Rutim, Dan-Rutim, Ama Min-Rutim, Zedias-Rutim, Ra-Rutim, Morn-Rutim, Zwei-Rutim and Oura-Rutim in the main house. My guests, me, Ai-Fa, Dick-Dom, Rem-Dom, one of whom was a two-month-old infant, but the hall was also quite busy.
"Speaking of which, are the red wildlings leaving a message?
"Yeah. Tia's not in a position to get in her luggage yet, so I got all the neighboring clans to keep her."
"Yes. I want you to feel better soon. That's how I feel better. I want you to compare your powers again."
Lem-Dom was doing a power comparison with Tia at the Parents' Conference. He seemed to have no hands or feet at that time, but Rem-Dom's black eyes were as bright and glistening as Lau-Ray's the other day.
"Now let's start celebrating our birthday"
Waiting for Kamadu's turn to calm down his hips, Gazran-Rutim declared so.
"I wish Dan, my father and previous parent, another healthy year to celebrate.... Ama Min, Blessed Flower Decorations"
"Yes," stood up Ama Min-Rutim, a flower ornament knitted in cranberry grass on Dan-Rutim's thick neck.
Dan-Rutim is laughing with a face that looks a lot ticklish.
"I feel strangely nostalgic. Ever since I became a parent, I've left this lesson aside!
Each person dedicated one round of flowers in Lew's main house, but on this occasion it was grouped into one flower ornament. Sometimes, even in the same blood family, learning still changes from house to house.
Guests then offer fruit liquor, not flowers. When each parent, Ai-Fa and Dick-Dom, gave it up, the pre-dinner ceremony was rarely over.
"Let's begin our celebratory dinner."
Gazran-Rutim recites the preprandial wording, and other humans recite it. That's how Gazran-Rutim partitioned himself as a parent, he was actually in the hall.
It was on the same day last year that Gazran-Rutim became the head of the family.
A feast that gathered blood tribes and Dan-Rutim was proclaiming it is still burning in the back of his brain. Although Dan-Rutim's power was still weaker compared to the power of combat, his qualities as a parent are less Gazran-Rutim. Dan-Rutim was making tears of joy while stating so.
There were a number of days I couldn't forget, but Dan-Lutim's birthday last year was just one of a kind.
With such emotion bitten off, Lem-Dom has raised his voice in an innocent manner as he dines on the juice dish to everyone.
"Really, it's like a feast. You made this for just three of us?
"Yeah. You had plenty of time. I hope it fits your mouth."
This evening's dinner was dominated by simplicity and luxury, in keeping with the temperament of the lead actor, Dan-Rutim.
Needless to say, the main dish is abalone meat. It is a sweet, spicy flavored, spare rib teriyaki based on tau oil. Others prepare roast, hearts, liver and tan BBQ, with a special sauce there.
The juice is a miso tailored pot made with plenty of vegetables and mushrooms, and the vegetable dish is served with a cold shaved salad of warm vegetables in a hobo dressing. And then, as a side dish, they had Nanar and Bacon omelettes featuring sautéed marole and mushroom modoki, stewed Tinfa and Bunashi Mejimodoki tarapa, and more. The staple foods are two kinds: baked Poitan and white Chaska.
"Wow! Besides AVA meat, everyone else is a dish even Ama Min can eat!
And, before I put my mouth to it, Morn-Rutim spoke that way.
"I don't seem to be using caron's milk, milk fat or cheese, or myrmu or vanilla at all... instead, I seem to be using a lot of ingredients that Ama Min deserves"
The ingredients that Ama Min-Rutim deserves are herbs, livers, nanals and mushrooms. Once taught by Li-Sudra, these are ingredients that I think are suitable for humans who milk babies. It was also based on the teachings that fatty meat should be avoided.
"In me, I can't think of a dedication with so many mushrooms. After all, Asta is amazing!
"That's because, well, there were similar ingredients in my hometown. Nothing surprises me."
"But I am sincerely pleased that you have devised such a dedication for Ama Min"
The words had already been given by the parents and their wives who had just visited Kamadu's cabin. I told Ama Min-Rutim beforehand that you should not worry about eating any dishes other than meat. Just in front of the dish, Morn-Rutim, who could guess it, was just fine.
"Hmm! Don't remember the day Zedias was born! Speaking of which, weren't those same facial rashes gathered that night as today?
Dan-Rutim just said so, grabbing the meat.
"Well, in the meantime of supper, Dick-Dom and the others visited! Today, from the very beginning, it took me to share my joy, above all!
Dick-Dom was responding "um" with a low voice. Its brilliant aspect is also revealed because it is removing the skull covering. It's a fragile skeleton with black eyes shining sharply and a big old wound running all over it, a very unseen look like me or Ey-Fa. However, its face, half-hidden by black hairbrushes, felt deeply carved and well-made out of the guide.
"Oh, if you like, please put this seasoning on the abalone meat"
And I'll give you the other day's fruitful Seven Flavors Chit. For this reason, the spare ribs were set aside for the teriyaki. Dan-Rutim, who followed my example and sprinkled a seven-flavored chit, said, "Uhm!" He was glowing his eyes.
"This is delicious! Even though it's delicious, it looks like it's getting better and better!
"Thank you. If you like, go ahead and cook some juice."
Even for Ama Min-Rutim, who avoids spices, the other seven-flavored chits were gratifying. Lem-Dom, who was eating satisfactorily the mothpot that threw it, tilts his neck all the way.
"Speaking of which, this juice uses organs, and your meat is your heart or your liver, right? Wasn't Luu's blood already in the rest period for ten days?
"Yeah. I brought this in from Fa's house. Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with freshness."
"Oh, yeah. So this is the gut of a hunted giva from Ai-Fa. If I knew that, it would taste better."
And, Rem-Dom stared at it with a colorful side, but Ai-Fa was silencing it on the top of the Buddha.
Even in the meantime, Gazran-Rutim talks to Dick-Dom, Ama Min-Rutim and Morn-Rutim enjoy crackling bickering, and Dan-Rutim makes a lavish laugh, which is a truly lively look. The mother and daughter of Zwei-Rutim and Oura-Rutim are a lot quieter, but I guess this is about wearing off the Lem-Doms that are responsible. It was also a lot of buzz to make up for, even if Ai-Fa and Ra-Rutim showed an oligarchy temper.
"... Speaking of which, I've been greeting Lew's house on the way, but Ray's parents are staying at Fa's, right?
Rem-dom calls out to Ai-Fa without a glance. Although she has calmed down a lot since returning to Dom's house, she was originally immensely loving to Ai-Fa.
"He said it was to train as a hunter, but how was the achievement?
"Not good. Originally, he was a very powerful hunter."
"Sure. I know that because I've peeked at the Lew family harvest festival, too.... But I'm stronger than Ray's parents, right? Otherwise, I wouldn't be wishing I had a hand in Ey-Fa."
…………
"It's really amazing. Hey, what about I-Fa? I'm an apprentice who can't even get a hunter's coat yet."
Ai-fa, who was indifferent, twisted Lem-Dom.
"In Fa's house, hunters' clothes are not given until they hunt Gibba on their own. Even in the northern settlements, is that the same?
"Most families will be. What's wrong with that?
"... I have been at the mercy of an apprentice since I was thirteen, but I hunted Giva on my own after two years of training. Before you complain, start with two years of training."
"You're not complaining. I'm just praising you for being amazing."
"Most hunters will serve one after two years. You don't have to praise me."
"Is that right," Gazran-Rutim said softly.
"Indeed, the men by the woods, from the age of thirteen, enter the woods and are recognized as serving one person at the age of fifteen. But wasn't it just when I was fifteen, too, that Ai-Fa lost her father?
Ai-Fa looked at Gazran-Rutim more with a very ugly look.
"I don't really want to be shaken up about my father... but what the hell is that?
"I'm sorry. It's just that Ai-Fa once talked about wearing the clothes of a hunter, who was my father's figure, so I thought maybe after losing my father, it was the first time that I had tailored Gibba with my own hands."
Ey-Fa replied sighingly when he placed a wooden dish of cold shaved salad.
"If I hadn't been able to tailor Gibba with this hand, I would have returned my soul for so long. That's all."
"Again, you did. I think it's a praiseworthy deed to have been able to tailor Giva alone, while being fifteen years younger"
Gazran-Rutim was a deposition as usual, but Lem-Dom and others were so daunted.
"I also heard that story a long time ago from Rudd-Lou. And so I began to work as a hunter, and I realized how amazing it was."
"I'm not talking about anything being praised. I'm just saying that Fa's house conveyed moves to use Gibba's fruit. Using gibberish fruit makes it easier to hunt gibberish instead of more danger.... Donda-Lou and others must have been abominable in their actions"
"Then......" Dick-Dom raised his voice to the lid.
"... Fa's parents were doing a 'sacrifice hunt'?
Ai-Fa had a tough face and responded "umm".
"If I hadn't done the 'Sacrifice Hunt' I would have starved to death"
"... So you're still on the 'Sacrifice Hunt'?
I shake my head "no" to that.
"I originally tried to refrain from" sacrifice hunting, "and I haven't been there once since I welcomed the hounds as my family. The truth is, it's just in a trap."
"Right. … If you continue the 'sacrifice hunt' for a long time, no matter how powerful the hunter, you will soon return your soul not far away"
Dick-Dom freshly stated that in a harsh voice.
"It is too sparing for a good hunter like you to follow such a fate from the small number of his family.... you should be thankful for the shmiral of Lilyn's house that brought the hounds by the woods"
"Hmm! I've been thinking about this for a long time, but Dick-Dom seems to care a lot about I-Fa!
As Dan-Rutim interrupted, Dick-Dom tilted his thick neck like a tree trunk.
"A strong hunter gives rise to a sentiment of admiration. Isn't that natural?
"No, I heard you were very sick about your sister becoming a hunter! I was so worried that you didn't like Ey-Fa, the cause of it!
"That's just my sister Rem being shallow, not a sinful story to Fa's parents"
"I'm sorry you're shallow! Even I will try to prove my righteousness with this hand one day!
After raising his prestigious voice, Lem-Dom sends another flush to Ai-Fa.
"But after all, I-Fa is amazing... I should have pushed him into Fa's house during the rest period too. You've done a terrible thing to reverse it."
"… I am sincerely delighted that the period of rest in the northern settlements has just come to an end"
"I'm already mean..."
Rem-dom is colourfully twisting his muscular body. Without the other's eyes, it seemed like he was going to be snuggling up on Ai-Fa.
"Hmm. Lem-Dom is Lem-Dom, and you miss him a lot Ey-Fa! After all, after all this time, it's something you can see all sorts of things!
Dan-Rutim makes another grand laugh.
"The guys at the branch also said they wanted to go to Dom's house again! If you like, why don't we keep our families together again!
"... would it be the role of the parents to decide that?
"I, too, agree with my father Dan. But now they're talking about how we should keep our families together in Zaza and Sutty."
"Um. Together with the chieftaincy muscle, Zaza and Sautti are too thin on edge. I hear there's a story going up that we should get rid of it.... Where did Gazran-Rutim hear that story?
"I was visiting the settlement of Sauti today. Dari-Sauti's companion never asked me to talk like that."
That said, Gazran-Rutim smiled loosely.
"The first attempt to keep our families together is also over. Every family member seems to be raising their voice that it was extremely meaningful, so it's a good idea to keep each other with another family next. I'm going to advise Donda-Lou that way."
"Hmm... if that prophecy were accepted, which family and family would Luu's blood keep with each other?"
"That depends on Donda-Lou, but as far as I'm concerned, I want Sung's house"
A majority of the humans gathered in the hall looked surprised. but Dick-Dom is faceless when it comes to rock statues.
"I see… it may be a meaningful attempt for the former and present chieftaincy muscles to keep their families together"
"Yes, and I hear that Gene and the hunters of Sudra are visiting Sung today for a few days. These days, they're adding havillas and danas to it... and I think it would be all the more meaningful if we could deepen ties with so many clans"
That's right, to Fermes, a Gazran-Rutim who was hailed as something of a prime minister. His eyes seemed to look far ahead of mine again.
I can't wait to be proud of such a gazran-rutim thing. I was once again to be reminded of what a lot of fascinating people are around me.
"Well, I'll leave the little hard stories to Gazlan, but what do you think about Morn?
and Dan-Rutim, who boned several spare ribs, mentioned such things to the lid.
Dick-Dom slightly frowns and Morn-Rutim blushes his rounded face.
"Would it have been a long time since we left Morn in Dom's settlement? Normal weddings shouldn't take this long. Wouldn't it be a good time to come to a conclusion?
"... shouldn't we take longer to figure out the right path because this is an unusual wedding?
"So Dick-Dom hasn't found the right path yet? I think Morn grew up to be such a wonderful bunch of women that he couldn't beat my partner."
"No, don't, Daddy Dan!
Morn-Rutim shouts out loud as it turns out to be a red fruit.
At the same time, Ai-Fa shook his shoulders with tingling. Dan-Rutim also said, "Hmm?," he leans his neck.
Dick-Dom was having a rough time.
The faceless expression remains intact at the time of the statue, but the black eyes are burning like fire. It was as if an aura of invisibility was flaming up on that body that was bigger than anyone else on this scene.
"What's the matter with you? Would I have said something that would make Dick-Dom angry?
Dick-Dom shook his head loosely and shook his bottom voice, "I..."
"I would probably have wished for a dowry from myself if Morn-Rutim had originally been Zaza's blood. That's how I see Morn-Rutim as a fine bunch of women."
Morn-Rutim's face, which had become much more anxious, became reddish again. Dick-Dom overlapped the words even more, scattering a tremendous temper.
"But I'm the head of Dom's main house, the family of the Chieftain Zaza. You must consider the well-being of your clan before your own happiness alone. … whether the attempt to give you a wedding without going through your parental muscles is really the right thing to do… I want to get some time now to figure it out"
"Hmm. That doesn't matter..."
When Dan-Rutim approached him that way, Lem-Dom slapped his brother on the shoulder with a pimple.
"How disturbing is it to say just that many words?... I'm sorry. This is what happens to Dick when he thinks too much about it. Well, I hope you think it's a shade of light."
"You're blindfolded! I don't care if Dick-Dom beats me up!
While stating it that way, Dan-Rutim laughed gahaha.
Dick-Dom looked down at Morn-Rutim's small, round figure, with his eyes burning rotten.
"That's why.... I am also sorry for Morn-Rutim"
"And it's outrageous. Because I am the one who has said things that are not in keeping with the learning…"
Dick-Dom whispered, "No," Morn-Rutim said.
"There is a day today because Morn-Rutim has squeezed such courage. I... am truly delighted that Morn-Rutim has offered me his hand"
Morn-Rutim opened his eyes in dismay.
There are great tears in his eyes, and he finally conveys his cheeks.
"Thank you...... you can just say that and I am as comfortable as everything has been rewarded"
"Nothing has been rewarded yet. … just a few more moments, wait for me"
I don't think so, I look back on Ai-Fa.
As red as Morn-Rutim had just now, Ai-Fa said, "What? I find myself."
"No, it's nothing," he replied, recalling clearly what happened a few days ago.
The warmth of Ey-Fa's arms that have held my body from behind, and even the sweet scent, come back to me all sorts of different ways.
(Morn-Rutim feels just as happy as I am right now)
Then I guess Morn-Rutim's feelings paid off.
But beyond that, there must be an even happier fate ahead.
I sincerely prayed that day would arrive as soon as possible.
