990 ② Settlement of the dark tree sea

"I'm sorry for the night!Anybody home?

Camuer-Josh, who had left Totos, raised his voice like that while banging on the door of a nearby house.

It is a sturdy house made of logs.White smoke rises from the chimney on the roof, but there is nothing to reply to.

"Um, Camur. In a border settlement like this, it doesn't make sense to speak the west.

"Oh, I see.This was by accident.……

And because Camuer-Josh suddenly called out words that he couldn't hear, Late was truly surprised.

"Um, can Camur handle the East Word?

"Yeah? Well, that's a bit of a problem.I often have escorts to my Sims, so it's inconvenient if I can't handle words. "

Kamur-Josh still had those moves hidden.

Late was very dissatisfied, but he still had no complaining energy or strength left.

The wind and snow have subsided considerably, but the nights are getting cold.Toth and his men, who had been forced to hold the force for a long time, were just as drowsy.

And so when Camuer-Josh tried to knock on the door again,

The tone of the decapitation echoed.

……

The doorplate was slightly opened, and the words of the east were delivered from there.

When Kamur-Josh answered in the eastern language, the doorplate was opened even further.

And it was the woman of the people of the east, who appeared from beyond them, who had no mercy.

It is as tall as Camoua-Josh and wraps its length in fur and cloth outfits.Her hair was bright gold and her eyes were purple.Like the people of Gerd, it appears to be a clan that has been linked to the blood of Mahidorah.

After further exchanges of words with Kamur-Josh, the woman retreated backwards.

Camuer-Josh smiles as he looks down at Late.

"I was allowed in.Try to cover the snow. "

Late used her fingertips, which had not yet returned to her senses, to wipe out her coat and Totos' snow.

Then, along with Kamur-Josh, the doorplate begins with a spacious earthen area. The two Totos bent down to contend with each other and became round on the spot.

"Hey, it was a really tough ride.Tomorrow, we'll feed the Totos plenty. "

Camuer-Josh dropped his luggage from Toth's back without showing signs of exhaustion.Late also moved her strong fingertips and managed to take care of her Toth.

The front of the earth was suddenly a wall with a book hanging on the right end.A wall is built between the entrance and the hall to prevent cold air.As Late unloaded all her luggage, the woman from behind the book peeked into her face.

"I'm preparing dinner now, so please warm up in the hall until then.This is more than I expected. "

Camuer-Josh laughed again with joy as he took only the valuables from the unloaded package.

There were four more women waiting for him when he went through the book with Camuer-Josh.Only one is old and the rest seem to be young women.

This was the second time Lat had seen the woman of the people of the east.

I first saw Arishna, an astrologer living in the castle town of Genos.Not to mention that there was no exchange, but since she was greeting with the noble Pollus, whom Camuer-Josh had acquired knowledge, Late also said hello several times.

(But since she's from the grasslands... she looks a lot different from the people in this settlement near Geld.)

Anyway, the women who were waiting for him there were all his strengths.He would be as tall as the Jigi peddler he saw in town.The people of the north are blessed with more strength than the people of the east, and when they have blood with you, they are even taller.

However, he still seems to be skinny.I don't know because of the rough fur outfit, but at least my face is long and thin.There was no place and no appearance of trouble.

………………

And the elderly woman sitting in the seat said something with a moaning voice.

She has black hair, but about half of it has turned completely white.My eyes are dark blue.The elongated face was engraved with a deep annulus, and it was like a sacred statue.

"It is unusual for travelers to visit this settlement.Anyway, you told me to warm up.……

Camuer-Josh thanked in eastern terms and then broke his knee in front of the enclosure placed in the middle of the room.

The floor is covered with fur rugs, and the furnace is lit with fire.There is a cylinder over the fire that allows smoke to come out of the chimney on the roof.The windows were also well blocked by doorplates, so there was an unmatched amount of enthusiasm on the spot.

The wet coat is handed over to a young woman, who also lowers her hips in front of the hearth.

Then another woman handed me a long wooden skewer.

"Oh, wet gloves and socks hang on them and stick them by the fire."

Late struggled to peel off the wet gloves and socks and try to do what she was told.

The stripped limbs are roasted by fire, warmer.If there were no eyes, I would have breathed a little.

And another woman handed me a wooden cup.It was filled with hot, vermilion tea.

"They say it's a tea medicine to warm up your body.It smells pretty exciting. "

It certainly smells like tea.When I applied my mouth lightly, I felt tingling and pain running through my various chilled lips.

"... it's kind of like melting pico leaves."

However, when I poured it deep into my throat, it warmed up like a fire in my body.Late hasn't spoken yet, but she felt comfortable drinking strong alcohol.

"Yeah, yeah. Sure, this is quite a strange taste."

Kamur-Josh smiled slightly as he mannered his mouth with his collar wrapped around his neck.

While staring at her, an older woman tells her something again.And after answering in the eastern language, Kamur-Josh looked back at Late.

"You were asked if you were a people from the north, so I said no.And then I was asked about my work... because I wanted to pass on the word "Guardian", so I said it was my job to protect people with a sword. "

Kamur-Josh placed a dagger on his hips at his feet.It would be natural for a traveler to have a sword for his own protection, but not for anyone who carries such a fine dagger.Late and others were just lowering their knives to their hips, which were likely to be carried by other people in the town.

…………

And according to the words of an elderly woman, a young woman brought an iron pot.

Since the fire in the enclosure was surrounded by large stones, the iron pot was set on fire with the stone as a pedestal.It seemed like soup dish with a bright red hue.

"Randall meat and wild vegetables.... did Late know about the Randall Rabbit?

"Yeah, just the name.I don't know what he looks like. "

"This is a beast with such a long ear.The size is slightly larger than Kimus's, and I think the taste of the meat is similar.I think it's easier to eat than the big bear. "

An elderly woman responded to the word "muffle."

Dark blue eyes are shining like fire in a large cut eye.

"Yes, it's a big bear in Mhuru.It looks like this rug or your outfit is made of gamma fur.... and the words of the west didn't make sense. "

Kamur-Josh rehearses in the eastern language.

While listening to the voice, Late was so indifferent.

I'm not sleepy, but my head is heavy.Your blood vessels are pounding and beating faster and faster.Even though I was trembling in the cold just now, it was hot now.

(I don't know... I hope it's not a strange sickness...)

Late took off the fur belt she bought from Abouf and decided to open her chest underneath.

Camuer-Josh, who finished his conversation with the woman, looks back strangely at Late.

"What's going on?I don't think it's good for my body to wear too thin. "

"It's kind of strangely hot.This medicine, tea, may have worked too well. "

"Oh, this certainly tasted like liquor.This is the strangest tea I've ever had. "

With that in mind, Camuer-Josh put his hand on Late's forehead.

A big, powerful palm.The skin was perhaps leather textured by the practice of swordsmanship.

"I don't think I have a fever... but I think my body temperature is higher than mine.If you're not feeling well, can I borrow your bedding?

"No, I think it will calm me down if I eat."

"Ah, drinking alcohol when you're hungry is quick to go around.I wonder if it's similar to that. "

The Kamur-Josh gaze at Late is very gentle.It was like a family-oriented look, embarrassing and restless for Late.

………………

* * * * * *.... I was told I'd take you to bed, but I said I'd ask you after dinner. "

"Yes, thank you."

Late lowered her head to both Camuer-Josh and the elderly woman.

The other women remained silent while sitting side-by-side.Those eyes, which were of various shades, seemed to be looking at the lates with a light like something to explore.

(It's kind of... a bad look on your eyes... I wonder if you're a lot different from the people of the meadows...)

When Late thought like that, Camuer-Josh shouted, "Eh."

"No, I was just asking about your family... and this house is all about your family."

"Huh? Don't you have a male family?

"Yes. Originally, this area was off Mhuru territory, and the settlers lived in peace hunting Randall and Gamma... but one night, Mhuru arrived and all the men who tried to drive it away returned their souls."

"That's... a pity story..."

"Yeah. The ladies can hunt Randalls and games, but I'm sorry to hear that you'll lose your family soon."

It would be great if a woman could do her hunting work.

Naturally, Late remembered the huntress and Balsha she met near the forest.

(I wonder if Balsha and Jeddah are doing well in Lou's settlement... but I'd like you to be happy even with the red beard rubber bubbles...)

It felt like it was hot somewhere, and Rate thought like that.

After a while, one of the women said in the eastern language, "The pot is boiled."

A wooden plate served soup dishes to Late, but there was little meat in it.The bright red broth is spicy and the ingredients are almost like wild vegetables.

However, you can't be allowed to complain about the contents of dinner while saving this kind of predicament.Rate cut off his nourishment and tried to eat without leaving a drop of spicy food so numb his tongue.

Your body feels warmer and stronger.

However, my head was heavy.

Besides, there is a fever around the abdomen.Something was pulsating hot, as if a new heart had grown there.

…………

An elderly woman tells something with a loud voice.

Camuer-Josh, who heard that, said, "Yes?"and tilted his elongated neck.

"I wonder what you're talking about when you're ready.……

Kamur-Josh disputed in the eastern language, but the elderly woman refused to answer.

Instead, four young women stand up.

- They began to undress themselves silently.

Late breathes, and Camuer-Josh round his eyes.

"Um, what are you doing?

Neither do the women.

And finally, their hands were hanging on their belts - they were all naked.

Black skin is glossy on the fire in the hearth.

He is skinny but naked with the grasp of the harsh northern lands and feminine elegance.

Late was pulsating with his heart and abdomen, and he felt the agony of a backflow of blood.

………………

An elderly woman declares something with a solemn voice.

Kamur-Josh was stunned, but still had a bitter smile on his mouth.

"Me and Late, pick a daughter-in-law, all four of us.... no, I don't know what to do with this. "
