746 New Brothers ② - Celebration Dinner

"We shall now begin our celebratory dinner.... Bless Zida, the new hunter of the Lou family!

In the declaration of Donda-Lou, everyone on the spot said, "Bless you!" The voice was summoned, and a celebratory supper was to begin.

About half of the people settle down on the rug and the other half scatter all over the square. In the meantime, Yun-Sudra smiled with a grin.

"Then we will take the catering of the dishes. Asta and Ai-Fa enjoy a celebratory dinner"

I was exempt from the job because three people would be sufficient for the meals. "Say hello" to Tour-Din and Malfira-Naham too, then I turned to Ai-Fa.

"So, first of all... do you want to say hello to Donda-Lou or Grandma Ziva?

"Mm-hmm. I haven't even thanked you for inviting me here yet."

It's the same thing as me in Kamadu's cabin the whole time. That's why we decided to storm over the rug spread before the ritual fire.

Many of the women have catering jobs, so the majority of the humans waiting on the spot are swollen men. Among other things, the rug seemed to gather the hunters of the fingerfold headed by Donda-Lou.

"Donda-Lou, this time I have been invited to an important blood ritual and I sincerely thank you"

On his knees on the rug, when Ai-Fa thanked him small, Lau-Ray said before Donda-Lou, "Oh, Asta to Ai-Fa!" He raised his voice.

"Ai-fa is another hunter's outfit, isn't it! This is a celebratory dinner, so you can wear a banquet costume!

"... I only decide to wrap my banquet costume around a wedding feast. And now I'm saying hello to Donda-Lou, not you."

"Right. When me and Yamir give you the wedding, I'll make sure you invite them too!

Rau-Ray, who doesn't know to snap, laughs cheerfully. How are you in a good mood for Yamil-Ray in the feast costume to refrain instead? I didn't even know how that felt.

Zida, Ziza-Lou, and Gazran-Rutim refrain from adding fruit liquor to Donda-Lou. I'm guessing the mimes are doing their job as Kamadu numbers. Surrounded by some of the biggest hunters, it is still Zida, who has not lost in power. Wrapped in Giva fur, Giva's fangs and horns were lowered from her neck and feathered with a whirlpool patterned vest, Gida was a fine woodland hunter from anywhere.

"Oh Ai-Fa... Lately, I'm glad to see more of you face to face..."

and a soft voice echoes from behind the big hunters. Totally, Ai-Fa narrowed her eyes with joy.

"Ziva woman, you look like you're breathing badly and most importantly. During the puppet play, I didn't have much time to exchange words with the Ziva woman, so I am so glad that she invited me to the Lou family"

"Then more, why don't we visit the Lew family? Besides, when are you coming to Ray's house? The rest of your family wants to meet Ai-Fa and Asta."

"... I'm talking to the Ziva woman right now."

"Then let's talk about it. Of course, me and Yamil!

Saying it that way, Rau-Ray slapped the rug with his hands flat. Ai-Fa seemed to try to say something back, whilst hissing his eyebrows, but he clasped his mouth down on the way.

"Maybe you want to talk to Grandma Ziva?

When I whispered sneakingly, Ai-Fa gave me her gaze at the top of her head.

"... but it would be a recent lesson here to eat a single dish around Kamado first?

"It's a self-determined lesson, so we're not going to keep doing it. Because Zida's here."

Still, Ai-Fa had thought about getting lost for a while, but eventually he was breaking his knee. Although it had been five days since I had seen Grandma Ziva face to face, it had been more than twenty days since it would have been the wedding day of the Schmiral-Lillins who had last spoken carefully.

"Ai-Fa and the others aren't going to Castle Town tomorrow... and Limi and the others seem to be looking forward to that..."

"Mm-hmm. Unlike usual, we're going into Castle Town on our own feet. Corresponding vigilance would be necessary, but it would be a meaningful act"

"Oh, really hey... I'm looking forward to hearing what kind of place Castle Town is..."

While exchanging words with Ai-Fa, Grandma Ziva is also looking very happy. That just kind of warmed my chest.

"If we find out that Castle Town is a safe place, we may eventually get a chance for the Ziva woman to come along. Together with the Lew family, I intend to see what I can do."

Then Lau-Ray said, "Hmm?" I've put my neck down.

"Speaking of which, you're calling me by name alone about the oldest. Isn't it a lot unusual, even though it's not a blood family?"

Ey-Fa looked like he was unwittingly nagging with disappointment.

"... you're the first person I've said that I've bonded back to the Lew family and it's been over a year."

"'Cause isn't it strange? I don't give a shit, but how could Donda-Lou or Giza -Lou have allowed such an imitation?"

Those two names are listening to this conversation not far from home. Your son answered that.

"Of course I've been concerned about that since the day I first invited the Ai-Fas to the Lou family. But I'm not willing to complain about the parents' forgiveness"

"Did Donda-Lou allow it? Why did you forgive me?

"... can you remember more than a year ago?"

Without even trying to match him, Donda-Lou soaked up the fruit wine again.

Then, Grandma Ziva herself smiles and turns back to Lau-Ray.

"That's because I asked Ai-Fa, as I call it myself... that was years ago but hey..."

"Hmm. You talked about Ey-Fa being associated with the oldest since he was a toddler. How long ago was that?

"That was a while back when I-Fa worked as an apprentice hunter... I guess it's been about four years..."

"That was a long time ago! I'm supposed to be my age, so when I was about fourteen? I wanted to see what kind of apprentice hunter Ai-Fa was, too!

Laughing cheerfully, Rau-Ray tilted the earthen bottle of fruit liquor himself. It seems that the doubts about the designation have improved.

I was caught up in another emotion. Speaking of which, it is not surprising that Ziza-Lou reversed the willow brow at the beginning of the encounter, because it is an act that defies the Forestside lesson to call the human beings of the extra blood by name alone.

(If you were Giza-Lou back then, you'd be about to cram into Donda-Lou saying you shouldn't be allowed to imitate like that.... but did Donda-Lou forgive me for that)

Even Donda-Lou should have had feelings close to hostility towards me and Ai-Fa. Whatever it is, it's Donda-Lou who used to call my hamburger "poison".

But I weighed the bond spinning between Grandma Ziva and Ai-Fa and didn't complain about the designation - does that mean?

(As a matter of course, there must have been a lot of interaction, even where I or I-Fa don't know it)

Multiple figures approached the rug when I thought of it that way with a smudge.

"Um, I'm here to deliver the food! Sorry it's late!

Mime, who put a ton of wood dishes on a large wooden plate instead of a basin, was raising his voice that way. Here again, Rau-Ray reacted first and said, "Oh!" and give her a bounced voice.

"You're finally here! Come on, let me eat!... Oh, of course, give it to Zida and the Chiefs first."

Mim started lining up the wooden dishes in front of the Zidas as she smiled to haunt them. In the meantime, the other ladies who circled the rug from side to side deliver the same dish to me, Ai-Fa and Lau-Ray.

It was a stewed Giva meat dish.

The scent of a plump miso stimulates the appetite center. What was simmering together seemed to be Aria, Nenon and Ma Guigo, plus Remirom when it was broccoli.

"Sounds delicious. Did Mim make this?

When I asked, Mim nodded yes.

"And I became the partitioner, and I sat with Barsha and the partitioners. This will be your first dish to sift around the house."

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to that."

Mim and I should have been keen on researching Miso. I set out to take a wooden spoon up my chest with great expectations of how a wonderful ingredient called miso was cooked by Mim's hand.

At first glance, I don't even see anything particularly odd. It was just that the broth was thickly lit and I wondered if it would be a beef stew kind of dish without the smell of miso.

The area of giva meat appears to be three pieces of meat in the chest. It seemed as carefully simmered as "Gibba's Horned Braised," and the fiber of the meat unrolled without difficulty when the wooden spoon was pressed.

Hit it in brown broth and bring it to your mouth with the diluted aria.

Moments - flavors that didn't come to mind, bounced around in my mouth.

Even though the aroma is rarely miso, it has an unexpected taste. Although it is true that miso-like flavors are also properly left behind, the first thing that spread over the tongue more than that was the extremely mellow sweetness and indescribable sobriety - and the flavor of Giva meat, amplified by those flavors.

If you chew well, you can feel the taste of miso without a scratch. It's not complicated, either, like the sticky Varcus. I just wonder if my brain got confused because it tasted so far away from the miso dishes I know. While taking full advantage of the properties of the miso, it was a taste I didn't know existed.

"Wow, is this... is this sweetness or flavor from fruit liquor or fruit?

"Yes, I also use red fruit liquor and a seal for aloof on the lamam. Besides, I also use red mammalian vinegar... I don't think the acidity is so on the table"

Sure, I don't feel sour. But I'm sure the acidity of the fruit and vinegar is who this sobriety is. The flavour may have been novel, as the topping with fruits similar to apples, strawberries and lemons was an unbeatable and bold way for Varcus to do so.

"Besides, I'm sure you use vanilla, too. Did you develop a combination of miso and vanilla prior to Varcus?"

"I use only two types of vanilla. But that's just the kind of usage that fills the gap between miso and other ingredients... I think if it's Varcus, you're devising a better usage"

After answering that way, Mim looked back at Zida in a bit of a nasty fashion.

"Um... how's the taste? I've put more hands on this than I did at home before..."

Zida felt as unfathomable as usual and just described it as "delicious".

But Mim glowed happily and said, "Thank you!" and give a cheerful voice.

"We still have a lot of food to cook, so please eat again later! Then I have work to do, and now if you'll excuse me!

Mim walked away from us with a bouncing foothold.

After dropping off that little hindsight, Zida carries the wooden spoon to her mouth. Those yellowish eyes were lit with a very soft light.

(Both of you, you look really happy)

Ai-Fa had spoken to Grandma Ziva without even making a small mention of Lau Ray, so I decided to let her talk to Zida.

"Congratulations, Zida. Following Shmiral-Lilyn, I am truly delighted to be able to become a family by the woods to the Zidas."

"Uhm."

"If you think about it, Zida takes care of you. I don't even know what would have happened if Zida hadn't been here."

After finishing Mim's cooking, Zida looked down on me, unfortunately, as she lowered the wood plate.

"... that was just a return of my debts to the people by the woods. I'm not as thankful as they say."

"Even so, I wanted to thank you. Gida and I have been hanging out a long time."

"... at first he turned his sword against the people of the woods."

"But you could have settled that right away."

Zida's figure, who visited Fa's house late at night, resuscitates behind her brain.

If all the great sinners by the woods are dying, who am I to wave down my sword to - Zida remembered it that way with a crying face, without tears.

Gollum, Zida's father, was convicted of the great sin committed by the Sung family and executed. Even if it was Cycleus and Silhouel who plotted such a plot, the people by the woods also have a great responsibility. After all that revenge, Zida was sitting here right now.

(I'm so glad I could tell with Zida. Zida's a bummer, but she's a hugely emotionally thick person)

Speaking of which, when Barsha was captured as a survivor of the Red Beard Party, he complained in tears that he would like it to be saved.

I may not have spent as much time with Zida as I have with the people of the Lou family, but I have nevertheless once survived a great ordeal with them. There was no way I wasn't happy to be one of Zida's fellow forest brethren.

"... Asta, aren't you remembering something extra right now?

and Zida casts a loose and noisy light on her cat-shaped carnivorous eyes.

I was remembering Zida's crying face, and I was supposed to wave in a hurry.

"What do you mean, extra? For me, it's all an important memory."

Zida stares at me suspiciously, whilst mumbling like a child.

Zida is awesome, and there are many parts that resemble Ai-Fa. Maybe that's what my dear dear was up to too.

"Oh, oh, uh, I brought you the dish"

and that's where I can speak from side to side again. Without having to look back, it was the upward voice of Malfira-Naham.

A lot of women flock to the rug as well as Malfira-Naham. The dishes were delivered from everywhere for Zida and Chieftain Donda-Lou, the stars of the day.

"Ho, ho, I am truly honored to invite you to an important ceremony today. This dish, this dish, this dish is served under Asta's partition."

Malfira-Naham began to distribute wood dishes with unparalleled hands, while only from the neck to the top was mundane. Gazran-Rutim, who received it, narrows his eyes gently, "Wow."

"This is Chaska food, isn't it? Asta's Chaska dishes always have a heart dance."

"Thank you. If you like it, I'm happy."

What we prepared today was a dish that mimicked Jambalaya.

Sautéed raw chaska with ingredients, steamed and fevered.

Giva meat is made from intestinal meat, with three varieties of vegetables: Aria, Nennon and Ma Pra. Besides the shredded Myrmu and Talapa, it was made from several kinds of vanilla and kimmus bone gala stock, which was quite spicy.

"Hmm, that's delicious! Again, with Shaska's treatment, Yamir doesn't seem too good for Asta either!

When Lough Ray raised his voice, Yamil Ray laid eyes on the jade bug-colored vale.

"Um, parent. Well, then, it's not like Asta would do it if it was something other than Chaska. There's no way I'm going to Asta with any ingredients."

"Hmm? You don't need to be so despised! Even Yamil has enough arms up! Yesterday's supper was already a wonderful feast! If there was a feast at Ray's house, I could show off your skill!

"Oh, this is so weird... it would have been easier to encourage Kamado to work."

Today, the women of the family are in the position of guests, so Kamadu is exempt from work. but it was only Yamil-Ray who was settling down on this rug that the Chiefs had formed, so maybe it's a lot unsettling.

Then there was the shadow that crept closer to Yamil-Ray like that. Having finished her catering duties, she is Malfira-Naham.

"Oh, oh, uh, excuse me in the middle of your welcome. Hey, hey, hey, can I talk to you for a second?

"Yeah, what could it be? How much easier it would be to deal with this parent than to deal with him."

"Oh, oh, thank you. Oh, um... Mi, how about a Mida-Lou addition or subtraction?

Yamil-Ray narrowed his eyes a lot.

"Mida-Lou's addition and subtraction, what do you mean? This is a settlement in Luu, so even Mida-Lu would be somewhere, right?

"Ha, yes. But Mida-Lou was surrounded by young men there, so getting a little closer was a long way off."

Yamil-Ray becomes an increasingly suspicious face.

"Even so, you don't know what it means to add up or subtract. Though I don't think Mida-Lou was injured or ill."

"Ha, yes. So, I heard that Mida-Lou was a lot disturbed when the puppet play was shown... and then I was wondering if you were feeling better."

Yamir-Ray looked back at Malfira-Naham's slight figure as he tilted his neck slightly.

Malfira-Naham is taking Yamil-Ray's gaze directly from the front as he lowers his eyebrows.

"... I'm not sure, but shouldn't we ask Luu's family about that? I'm Ray's family, so I'm not that familiar with Mida-Lou."

"Oh, well, you did. also, i'm sorry. Because I thought that if you were Ya, Ya, Yamir-Ray, you would know how Mida-Ru is..."

Then Lau-Ray, hoisted to a strange shape only by one eyebrow, put his neck all the way up between the two.

"Why are you leading Mida-Lou in the first place? What if you wish Mida-Lou to marry you?

"Yeah? And, hell no... Wow, you can't allow a man like me to wish to be dowry in Lew's house..."

"You were the women of Naham. Because weddings that are beyond the reach of other bloodlines are also accepted, if Lu and Naham were to be kind, there would still be no problem."

Malfira-Naham rounded his eyes properly, forgetting also to let him swim. That is a rare trick for Malfira-Naham.

"Ha... so, but I still don't understand much about weddings and sex. Ho, ho, with something truly impossible."

"Then why are you leading Mida-Lou?

Malfira-Naham smiled calmly as Rau-Ray ate ate down.

"Wow, wow, my heart is so relieved when I am by Mida-Lou. So, so to Mida-Lou, I feel like a benefactor. So when I heard that Mida-Lou was disturbing you, I was going to show you very much."

"Hmm. It would be better to replace the word" benevolence "with the word" affection. "

While Rau-Ray was tilting his neck, Yamir-Ray called on Malfira-Naham.

"I don't know about the last few days, but I'm having dinner with Mida-Lou the night the puppet play was shown. He seemed completely calm by then, so I guess I don't have to show him anything."

"Oh, well, you did. Well, then, I'm glad."

Malfira-Naham further rounded the back of the cat's back and offered a deep salute.

"Duh, duh, thank you very much. Oh, I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation. Now, if you'll excuse me."

Malfira-Naham quickly walked away with a plate cut instead of a basin.

Yamil-Ray, who was silently dropping off that flimsy hindsight, stands up largely.

"Parent, let me just take it off."

"Hmm? Then it's time we decided to tour the square too!

And, as Lau-Ray also tried to raise his back, Yamil-Ray stuck his supple finger to its nose tip.

"You only sit here for four and a half minutes. I need to talk to my daughter earlier. Then I'll stick with you as much as I want."

Lau-Ray blinked with his pussy, then lowered the hips he was about to raise to the rug.

Yamil-Ray nods satisfactorily and then disappears beyond the crowd.

Then, apparently, Ai-Fa, who was eyeing the interaction between the two of them, leaned to my ear.

"I don't know... it was like putting on a shaggy zilbe."

"That's an odd encounter. I've been thinking the same thing."

He's usually a Yamil-Ray pulled around by Lau-Ray, but he can exert his original dominance when it comes here. Terribly, it was a reliable story.

Think of it as something like that, and now Zida stands up without sound.

"Donda-Lou, I'd like to have a few words with my family, will you forgive me?

"Do as you please. There's no such thing as staying in the same place forever."

Zida has been staring down at me ever since she beckoned Donda-Lou.

"... are you coming with me?

"Are you sure?... What about I-Fa?

Ai-Fa smiled and turned to Grandma Ziba.

"I'm coming around the square. I want you to exchange words later."

"Oh, I'll see you later...... I'm sure Rimi will be waiting for you about Ai-Fa in Kamado somewhere too..."

Grandma Ziva smiling softly dropped us off and we left the rug.

The mimes are on their way. There was a glimpse of people looking for food stopping by.

"Oh, Zida. Are you done with your grandfather?

Balsha, who was washing an empty wooden dish, laughed cheerfully at the water bottle placed beside Kama. Mim was also shining his face as he split the dish of the iron pot into a wooden dish.

"Asta had Ey-Fa with her, didn't she? Have you tasted Mim's food yet?

"Yes. It was a great job. Barsha must have helped you cook, too, right?

"How dare I carry ingredients and iron pans? Because a lot of people like me can only do that."

"That's not true!," Mim quickens her voice.

"Aren't you also good at balsha, grinding vanilla and cutting meat apart? Cutting meat is a very important task, isn't it? I guess life in Masala is helping Barsha."

"You don't have to lift it because you're a family member in the same house."

Balsha laughs cheerfully as she returns the sarcastic words, etc. Mim also had a really happy smile about it.

Instead of such mime, Michelle is silently stirring the iron pan. It's a handicapped michele on the right hand side, but it's not as hard as using a ladle with your left hand and splitting the dish on a wooden dish placed on a table. After a glimpse of Mim and Barsha's smile, Zida proceeded to walk to Michele.

"It's Michele. I don't think young people like me are very comfortable with their parents... but I'd like to ask them again in the future."

Michelle remained on the top of the Buddha and twisted Zida's figure.

"What are you talking about? If you weren't a hunter enough to be recognized by Donda-Lou, I'm sure we would have been taken into separate houses. It's all because of you that we can continue our lives the way we've always been."

"That's right. Of course I'm not dissatisfied with other houses. Then Mim was supposed to cry again, right?

"No, please, Barsha!

Mim shyly blushed her cheeks, while wandering over me and Ai-Fa. I'll make you smile back from the heart.

"I never dreamed I could be one of the Mimes. Keep it up, Mim."

"Yes! Nice to meet you!

Mim lowered her head vigorously, so fangs and horns hung from her neck bumped into each other, playing a callous and subtle tone.

"You look great in a woodland outfit, too. Is that the same style as Zwei-Rutim?

"Yes. It seems like a completely obsolete lesson by the woods, but until you're 15 after ten, you're also allowed to wear these outfits."

When it comes to fifteen, it is the permissible age of the wedding. Is it the idea that this one-piece shaped outfit is similar in design to the one-piece cloth outfit that married women are wrapped around, but if you are of unacceptable age for a wedding, there is no problem with being confused?

"I see. Mim would be more accustomed to wearing that kind of outfit, so it was just fine."

"Yes. The truth is, maybe I should have worn the same outfit as everyone else... but walking hungry is a bit embarrassing..."

and is also a mime that blushes cheeks. In Genos, it is more of a minority to wear clothes as exposed as Yumi. Terrier-Mass Because when I rented a banquet costume from Yumi, it was something that looked embarrassing already.

"Whatever it is, it suits you well. Speaking of which, Mim's not wearing any ornaments."

"Ah, yes. Some people tried to lend me ornaments I didn't use, but I didn't want to because it would be difficult if I accidentally burned them"

Still, it doesn't make a difference that Mim loves you. At the upcoming feast, I guess he'll be wearing ornaments he bought himself. With nearly a year of stall commerce, Mim was supposed to be storing considerable assets.

"Asta and I-Fa took care of me a lot, too, didn't they? This is how we laugh, thanks to everyone, starting with Astas."

Barsha, having finished the wash, has stated so as she awakens herself.

"Not at all," I make him laugh.

"Of course, I don't deny that we owe it to everyone by the woods, but we should be just one of them."

"That's not true. If Asta hadn't taken the lead and become a family member by the woods in the first place, I guess this would never have happened."

That said, Barsha laughed showing her sturdy white teeth.

"When I think about it, should I thank Ai-Fa for letting me through the impotence first? Let's say we thank our Mother Forest and our Father Western God for the ruinous human being by the woods like I-Fa"

"Hmm. I don't think you're being praised at all."

Answering that way, Ai-Fa smiled in front of her eyes.

"Well, it won't be necessary to lift me or Asta freshly. It is all a guide to the forest.... and of Western gods."

"Oh. I wasn't that confident, but now I want to thank all the gods."

Barsha and Mim look at each other and laugh at each other again. Looking at both of them like that, Michelle and Zida are gently narrowing their eyes.

It's a very natural, warm air, a combination that has no relevance whatsoever to the hunter's parents and children, who have spent eleven months nurturing this air.

(Tell you what, it's the same kind of relationship you have with me and Ai-Fa. I guess it wasn't just about being a family by the woods, it was about spending time with these four)

Mim has lost her mother at an early age and Zida has lost her father at an early age. And Michelle and Barsha are each losing a partner. I wonder if the Mimes have also found salvation in your presence - as I have found salvation in Ai-Fa, having lost my homeland and family.

Whatever it was, the four of us all looked happy.

I'm sure that's the answer to everything.

May everyone be happy forever, and I sincerely prayed to the Forest and to the Western God.
