1086 A feast of praise (7)

After enjoying the conversation with Timaro and Maim, I and Eifa turned to the next booth.

Today I spend quite a bit of time at each booth, so it seems like it would be a big job to just go around the Great Hall.However, today, I put more emphasis on interacting with people than on satisfying my stomach, so I couldn't feel like changing this pace.

(However, if you were to go crazy, it would be closing time.I'll take a break after I've done about half a turn.)

While thinking like that, I arrived at the next booth.

And there was handed out the potage of No 'Giego, and the women of Qur' an-Sun and Meem.

In front of Booth, there were only two east people at this feast.

"Alishna to Platica, thank you for your hard work."...... Wow, that's a lovely gift for you today. "

Originally, they used to sacrifice a lot of ornaments, so they went to the tasting party as they were.However, today it was an official feast, and she wore a Sim-style feast costume very similar to Yumi.

In particular, Platica was originally a neutral costume, so it was completely misleading.Pratica, who wore a beautiful long coat with a whirlpool pattern and tied her hair in a golden brown shape like a ponytail, looked like a princess of a Sim.

"... I didn't have the opportunity to sit at the feast, so I relied on the Count of Dalaym. That's the result."

Pratica answered with a smoother black cheek full of blood.The purple eyes were sharper and more angry.I mean, you must be embarrassed.

"Oh, I'm sure your partner, Rittia, helped me."He seems to have a hobby of making costumes for people's banquets. "

"...... It's my turn to cook, it's not appropriate."Shame is forbidden. "

"If you say that, there should be about a hundred cooks here."First of all, it's me, the guest of honor, and Tour-Din himself. "

Pratica, who couldn't kill her emotions, looked back at Ai-Fa with her mouth full.

"...... Ai = Fa, that's pigmentation. I would like to be an apprentice”

Hmmm. I've been dressed a little uncomfortably for the past year.

Having said that, Ei = Fa turned his gaze around calmly.

"Even so, are you the only ones here?"I don't think this soup dish is popular. "

"Yes, it would be incompatible to eat soup dishes while standing."Everyone is on their way to the table after receiving the food. ”

"Hmm. You mean you were talking to Kamado?"

"Yes, not me, Alishna, I wanted to stay here."

When Ay = Fa turned to him, Alyshna bowed down.

"Ai-Fa, beauty, everything.I think this is the most beautiful lady I've ever gathered. ”

"... you didn't hear our conversation?"

“Yes, I wished to speak with Klua-Sun.”

Alishna doesn't want to talk much.

At that moment, Klua-Sun raised her voice with a somewhat confused smile.

"Alishna was worried about me."...... this example is about the power of stargazing..... "

Klua-Sun, with her silver eyes, is perceived to be slightly empowered to see the stars.Hoshimi's power is a dangerous aspect that needs to be properly controlled by herself, so she said, "If you want, I will add strength to it." --Arishna offered to do so during the disturbances surrounding the Evil God Sect.

"... I see. But you're not incapacitated anymore?"

"Y-Yes. I wasn't originally equipped with such a large layer of power..."

"Umu," Ai-Fa looked back at Alishna.

Alishna bows again in grace.

"I'm sorry." I've always cared about the existence of Klua-Sun.It was an incongruous topic at the feast of the southern royalty. "

"There is no reason for me to complain if you take care of my compatriot Klua-Sun.... but isn't it so incongruous to talk about Hoshimi here? "

"Yes. The inner heart of Prince Dakarmas is unknown, but it seems that the people of the South often regard it as the power of star-gazing and ominous."Therefore, today I am not an extra astrologer, but a guest. "

"I see. It would be a shame to come to such a feast among the people of the East."I've heard that your body isn't strong, so don't force it. "

Alyshna looked back at Ai Fa while tilting her head like a noble Shamcat.

"Ei-Fa, always without a doubt, is a loving one.The gorgeous banquet costumes, combined, seem like someone else. ”

"That insight is wrong."Ei = Fa, you are always kind. ”

"...... You guys are so funny."

Even though everyone is in a beautiful banquet costume, it is as far as smiling.The women of Meme who were silently listening also laughed, killing their voices.

It's a big deal, so why don't you and Pratica visit the hall together?

"No, my guest, Asta, is with us, it's not right."This is a feast hosted by the royal family of the south. "

That's how Platica has been staring at me.

"That's why, when the royals of the south return, I want you to forgive me for going to study parties, dinner parties, and so on."Do you understand? "

"Ahh, I've been busy lately, so I couldn't really deal with you."We'll be studying castle town practices in the future, so let's do our best together. ”

After all, Platica was an unbeatable enthusiasm for Roy and Timaro.In addition, there were many scenes that opened the eyes of His Highness Dakarmas for about a month and a half, so it was probably depressing.

So, when we thought about sitting down somewhere and having a No Gigo potage - a new figure is approaching us.

"After all, you guys have become quite conspicuous."It might be more glamorous than any nobleman. "

It was Ravitz's eldest brother who also threw such words into the greeting.

Behind him, a group of people from the forestside are in one place.Marfila-Naham, Mora-Naham, the youngest sister of Naham-and Faye-Baim was the face of Baim's eldest brother.

"Oh, thank you, ladies and gentlemen, it's about time."

"Hmm. Wherever I went, Naham's three sisters would be surrounded, so I ran away."It seems that this medal will attract that many people. "

“I see. It's Marfila-Naham's turn to have that much power.”

“No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.” Marph

"Besides, Baim's youngest sister."I guess Asta's help made her face spread.Naham's third sister was calling out to me with an unbeatable momentum. "

"That's a terrible thing."There will be no other incompatibility. "

Faye-Behm answers like that, the ultimate Buddha face even though it's a feast costume.

Ravitz's eldest brother looked back at you with a smile.

"You've been asking questions about Sudra and Matua's ladies, but that's probably the finger's turn around the forest."Apart from that, it's like Asta recognized you as the best, so there's nothing incompatible with it. "

"No. Luu's bloodline should be more powerful than mine, no matter how many people there are."Asta didn't dare to speak to Lu's bloodline, so I was chosen. ”

"You're such a stubborn bitch."It's not like I've been in a strange mess, so what's the problem?... well, if there were even big men sticking around like that, there couldn't be people trying to make a big deal out of it. "

Faye-Beam's face blushed instantly, and Mora-Naham's eyes swam expressionlessly.And the eldest brother of the main house, Faye-Baim's brother, watches the two names with interest.The delicate relationship that existed between Faye-Behm and Mora-Naham may have finally become known to the family.

(Well then, is it possible that you are the cause of Faye-Behm's tense face?)

Mora-Naham is suspicious of Fay-Baym.It was quite strange that the two of them wore castle town banquet costumes and stayed at the feast.

"So you were talking to the people of the east?"You said hello at a previous tasting. "

"Yes, I am glad to see you again," bowed Alyshna.Unlike Pratica, who used to come and go along the edge of the forest, Alyshna only had connections with a handful of forest dwellers.

"I was disappointed that day, but you were the one who brought strength to the evil god sect when it made noise around the forest."If I knew that, I wouldn't have finished just greeting you. "

"Yes, do you have any business?"

"I don't have any errands, but if you are a person who has survived the ordeal with your compatriots around the forest, it will be worth deepening your relationship."

After all, this gentleman seemed to be very curious in the confined blood of Ravitz.

Therefore, this meal will be paused and often left for a cheerful conversation.No matter how much Platica and the others hesitated, I couldn't keep them away from here.

After a while, the surnames and maidservants everywhere rang the bell and told them that there was only time left until the end of the feast.There should have been plenty of time for three minutes today, so two-thirds have already passed.

"Oops, I can't just talk to the same people." It's time to move. "

With Ravitz's eldest brother at the helm, the group on the edge of the forest disappears into the crowd.Pratica and Alyshna bowed and walked away in the other direction.

If there's only one hour left, let me take a break right now.

When I called out like that, Ai = Fa nodded, "Umu" as she twinkled her eyes in a dazzling look.If we can make time just for two people because it's only five minutes, we'll be able to harness our new vitality again.

"Well, there's a balcony over there."It's in the opposite direction, so even on the way, you'll be able to speak up. "

That's how we decided to draw the crowds and aim for the other side of the Great Hall.

As you'd expect, you'll be greeted along the way by a variety of people.Besides, I could see strangers laughing all over the place.

Reina-Lou and Ziza-Lou also spoke with the people of the house of Count Satulas.

Yun-Sudra, along with Rey-Matua and Luia, speaks with the cooks of the castle town.Besides, it seemed that the young aristocrats and their friends were mixed in a number of names.

Nawdis also appears to be surrounded by castle towns.After all, the third place won at the last tasting was highly influential.

The blood of Zaza and the Marquis of Genos formed a large circle in the corner of the hall.Tour-din, Zay-din, Georg-Zaza, Sfira-Zaza, Dick-Dom, and Morne-Rutim-Dom-a group that stands out in the distance.Besides, Eurifia and Odifia are surrounded by young and old princes.Perhaps the main members of the Guard have been introduced to Zaza's bloodline.

Apart from that, Ghazlan-Rutim and Vermes were in a small group.

Neither of them was taken to the table, and the two of them were alone at a small round table.Vermes seemed to be so beautiful that it was as if the young men and women were speaking good words.

And then --- Rimi-Lou held Tara's hand and saw her walking along with Rud-Lou and Dora's father.After the break, I will definitely meet you there.

"Speaking of which, I haven't even met Baran's darling and Dells yet."With this many people, it's a struggle to say hello to people you know. ”

"Hmmm.... you mean it's not like you're just taking a relaxing break?"

“No, no, a break is a must for a big job.”

When I answered with a smile, Ei = Fa narrowed her eyes happily.

So you run into strangers head-on.These were aspects that could not pass through.

"Dalí-Saudi, thank you for your hard work." Are you enjoying the feast? ”

"Oh, to Asta, Ai = Fa.Hmm. If all these people are gathered together, there will be an unexpected reunion. ”

Mille Fei-Saudi and Vera's patriarchs and companions are to be found among Dalí-Sauthi.At the front of them were the inhabitants outside the stone wall, all of whom had vermilion bracelets on them.

Ah, you greeted me with a blessing ceremony.

“Yes, I live in seclusion on the southern edge of Dalai Lama.”

It was the old man who delivered the bottle after Dora's father as the representative of the keeper of the field in Dalaym.It was obvious that he was burnt in the sun, and that he was also producing spirits in the field.

"Are the others also stewards of the fields of Dalai Mu?Where did Dalí-Sauthi get to be connected with these people? ”

"All I knew was this old man."Until I got the wagon, I had to buy Aria and Poitin there. "

Speaking of which, it was said that Souti's village was far away from the town where the station was located, so he bought the ingredients directly from the village at the southern end of Dalaym.

"If you need salt, fruit wine, etc., I've asked you to stock it up beforehand."I was looking after her a lot back then. ”

"That's terrible.... But back then, we were also afraid of the people around the forest."As soon as that kind of misunderstanding was cleared up, I didn't have a chance to face each other anymore... so it was a lot of remnants. "

Having said that, the old man suddenly deepened his laughter wrinkles.

"But that's why we're going to reunite in this place... and this guy has become the chief of the forest, right?"I was totally surprised. "

“I see. That was a lovely reunion.”

When I answered like that, I said, "What?"I tilted my head."

"But it's not often for a man to take on a buying job."But was Dalí-Sauthi himself related to this one? "

"As a young man, it was part of my training to carry my luggage, and even after a long time, I helped with shopping during the rest period."At that time, I was face-to-face with this old man every time. "

Having said that, Dali-Souti smiled somewhat shyly.In other words, this old man was often confronted with a young Dali-Sauthi who was not yet a hunter.

"I'm a poor village, like I'm really stuck at the edge of Genos."The world doesn't know that you're invited to such a festive feast.... but I'm so glad that I was able to clear my mind before I returned my soul. "

"It's still too early to return your soul."Besides, since the clearing of the forest road, you've been quite busy, haven't you? "

"Yeah, well, our village is the first place we get off the road by the forest."You guys can't stop wanting to take a break, so we finally decided to build a teahouse. "

"In the future, your village will be more and more busy."I think you should live a long time and see the prosperity. "

Somehow, it was a very warm exchange.

After saying goodbye and leaving the scene, Ei = Fa calls out to me in a somewhat familiar way.

"It takes a while to get from Luu to Souti's village, even if you use a wagon."In other words, the village where the old man lives is far away from the station town. "

"Yeah. It's quite a surprise that the Dalai Lama's territory is so large."...... so that's where we didn't know you were tied together. "

"At that time, it would have been a bad relationship."Dalí-Sauthi and the others will be happy as long as it turns into the right relationship. "

When Ei = Fa snorted like that - a tall figure stood in front of her.

If anyone thinks so, it's Gemdo, a servant of Vermes.Speaking of which, Vermes was speaking of Gazran-Rutim alone earlier.

"Gemdo, thank you for your hard work. It's unusual to act separately from Hermes in a situation like this."

“Yes, I have a story to tell Fa's patriarch, Ai Fa.”

With a deep baritone voice, Gemdo said so.

Today, he is also the courtesy of the warlord, so he looks very scary.Unlike Vermes, who is a bit different, he looks like a prince.

"To me, not to Asta?What can I do for you? ”

Ei = Fa asked somewhat, and Gemmud bowed, "Yes."

"The people on the edge of the forest, the patriarch of Fa = Ai Fa.... would you allow me to invite you to the ball again? "

"What?" Ai-Fa opened her eyes slightly.

"What is dancing about?"It seems that there is no such spare time today. "

“Today, we are going to summon the rhythms at the last half an hour for a side event of the dance.This feast is about enjoying the cuisine of the banquet, so it must have taken a different form. ”

"I see," Ai-Fa sighed smallly.

"But I'm sorry, I can't take that wish.Was the reason told by Vermes before? "

"Yes, the people on the edge of the forest have a custom that family members should not touch the opposite sex, but at a masquerade party once, the chiefs of the edge of the forest, Dalí-Saudi and Georgi-Zaza, were dancing with the lady of the castle town."

Speaking like that, Gemdo pushed his right hand into his decorative nostrils.

What was taken from there was a silk glove with a stylish embroidery.

“At that time, I suppose they were wearing something like this.You can only touch each other with your hands, so you can avoid touching your bare skin. ”

Gemdo's expression was gentle as usual.

Looking back at such a gem, Ei = Fa responded with a quiet voice.

"... it would have been considered undesirable to touch the opposite sex even from the top of the costume."But Dalí-Sauthi and the others did not think it right to value their own customs, so they accepted the invitation of Eurifia to make peace with the customs of the castle town. "

Yes.

“We have to bond with humans outside of the woods.In that case, I think we should not confine ourselves to the customs of the forest side, but sometimes we should also turn to the customs of the outside world. "

Having said that, Ei = Fa narrowed her expression sharply.

"With the same feeling, I used to dance with the ladies of the castle town."But...... Gemdo, I would like to refuse your offer. "

After all, did you make an unsuitable request?

"It doesn't matter who you are." However, I... I'm willing to dance with men other than my family Asta. "

Ai = Fa said so, holding her sharp expression.

Gemdo also puts the gloves of his hand into his pocket with a gentle expressionless expression.

"I understand." I sincerely apologize for making Ai-Fa feel uncomfortable. ”

"I don't have any unpleasant feelings.Isn't that what made you uncomfortable? "

"Not at all." Please don't worry about Ei = Fa, as the invitation to dance doesn't mean that much. ”

Gemmud bowed down and tried to return the bowl.

While showing a slightly lost expression, Ai = Fa called out "wait."

"Once upon a time in the sanctuary of Morga, we were to be saved greatly by your words.I want to form the right bond with you. "

"I am merely acting as the agent of Master Vermes, so you do not need to be aware of this.If I = Fa is grateful, I want all of them to go to Hermes. ”

Having said that, Gemdo made a completely emotionless smile in his mouth.

"I am nothing but the shadow of Master Vermes... there is no meaning or reason for you to care about me."

With that said, Gemdo disappeared into the crowd.

Ei = Fa bit her lip lightly - and then she looked back at me with determination.

"... so let me rest a lot."

"Um, yeah. That's right."

I was secretly confused.

What Jemdo was thinking - how he felt about Ei = Fa was something he couldn't catch up with.

Gemdo offered Ei = Fa a dance at the feast of the tournament, perhaps.Then it was at the end of the silver moon, and it was already five months ago.

Since then, there is no fact that Gemdo has approached Ei = Fa.Me and Ai-Fa rarely let go of our actions in the castle town, and if Gemdo called out to us with such a small gap, I'm sure Ai-Fa wouldn't hide it.I never doubted that.

(Gemdo said that even though it's hard to understand his inner feelings... there's no heavy point in inviting him to dance... would that person invite Ei = Fa to dance with such light feelings?)

With that in mind, I decided to make my way through the crowd.

The walls on the balcony are already in place.

For ventilation, the doors leading to the balcony were wide open, and one guard on each side.

So when I tried to call out to the guards - a cute voice called "Asta-sama" came out.

"It's finally been a pleasure meeting you."Would you like to take a moment? ”

It was none other than Princess Dersheer, who had to refrain only from his late warlord, Lode.
