1155 Eira feast ③ ~ before the feast ~

"So Levi and Terrier-Mass are going to have a wedding?"

That night, after hearing my report at the dinner table, Eifa seemed to be deeply surprised.

”But... are you two finally getting to know each other today?”

"Yes, but Milan-Mass said that if the feeling solidified, there would be no point in postponing it." If you refuse to talk to the liquor store, it seems that it's better to give him the wedding sooner than worse. "

"I see. If that's the custom of the station town, then I won't be able to complain... so when's the wedding?"

If possible, I'd like to give it to you in about three days.

"Three days from now!?", Ei = Fa's eyes peeled off again. I couldn't help but admire the tremendous reaction.

"The wedding ceremony in the station town is not as big a story as around the forest." Someone who doesn't have a lot of leisure in their life, they swore a pledge in the cathedral, and that's the end of it. Well, [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion] is a very large inn, so I think I'm planning to give it a proper celebration.... so, actually, I was asked to prepare the food... "

When I turned to the begging gaze, Ei = Fa resurrected the face she had taken.

"What are you looking at a young child like that for?" Is there anything you need to know about my mood? "

"No, the pledge of the cathedral is in the evening, and the wedding celebration will be in the evening." That way, I'll have to ask for another escort, and I won't be able to have dinner at home anymore..... "

"... some sweetheart is complaining?"

"No, no! More sweethearts are here!"

Ai = Fa gently slammed her head into my face.

"You seem to be floating in full swing, too."... anyway, Levi and Terrier-Mass are important friends for you. So if you ask for help, do your best. "

Having said that, Ei = Fa suddenly took a breath.

"But is Levi and Terrier-Mass going to get married... Levi was supposed to be younger than us."

"Yeah, maybe he was two years younger than us?" So Terrier = Mas should be the same age as us. "

“I see. That's how we watch young people getting married more than we do.”

Having said that, Ei = Fa turns to me with a soft look.

I gave you a heartfelt smile.

"So don't apologize anymore." I'm not convinced by that before. "

“Hmm. But we can't allow ourselves to forget the difficulty.”

So we didn't talk a lot, and we checked our feelings.

◇

At dawn, it was the next day.

After finishing the finishing touches, I went to the village of Luu and there was a smiling Reina = Luu waiting for me.

"The other chiefs have allowed me to prepare a festive meal for you. Lara is on duty today, so please tell Levi and the others hello.”

"Yeah, sure. I'll see what kind of food is right for you, so today's study session is that meeting." Today is the day I wanted to give you a summary of the joint study session. "

“It's all right. For Levi and Terrier-Mass, it's a once-in-a-lifetime celebration, so our convenience is at an end.”

Speaking like that, Reina-Lou was heartfeltly sunny, but I felt very warm because it was pleasant.

So I joined Lara-Lou and Rimi-Lou on duty today, and when I turned to [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion], there were Levi and Terrier-Mass with bright red faces waiting for me.

"Hey, Asta, I'm sorry about yesterday. Even though you burned me, I can't even thank Rok..."

"It's okay." If it's settled round, I'm glad to hear it. "

"Hey, what's with those eyes?" Don't look at me with strange eyes! "

"Do you have such strange eyes?" I'm just happy with the two weddings. "

Then, while Terrier-Mass was about to collapse in shame, Yun-Sudra called out in a deep voice.

"Yu, Yun-Sudra, I'm sorry too." Yesterday, I exposed my pathetic figure like that... "

"Not at all." I also sincerely want to celebrate your wedding. "

Then Levi and Terrier-Mass exchanged gazes with a red face.

Their gazes are overflowing with thoughts that they have been pushing so hard to hide. In particular, Levi and the like would have acted for a long time and never exposed themselves to others.

(It's been almost a year since the Levites started working at [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion]. I don't know how long Levi and Terrier-Mass have been in love.....)

However, it was also clear from the current appearance how deep it was.

"Well then, I'll see you at the banquet later." In the meantime, I'll borrow the stall. ”

Pull the stall out of the back warehouse and march into the open area. Along the way, Levi threw a somewhat worrying voice.

"Um, Asta, I'd like to thank Lau-Ray before the wedding if possible..."

"If it's Lau-Ray, it's going to be a wedding or evening celebration." I wonder if it's okay to talk about it at a festive table because I'm going to be working on hunting gibbons today or tomorrow. "

"I see. Now, let's do it." Asta and the others have seen a lot of things. ”

"It's not like that." The wedding is an important story, and everybody has their own circumstances. "

When I casually returned such words, Levi immediately tightened his expression.

"That's right. I had to apologize to Asta, not just thank her." I'm really sorry I said such a terrible thing yesterday. "

"It's okay." So Levi was pulled by Lau-Ray, and it was all over again. "

"But I hit back at Lau-Ray." If Asta doesn't hit me, it's not evenly proportioned. "

I laughed and smiled at Levi's head.

"Well then, that's the end of it." I can't let the bridegroom get hurt at the wedding, either. "

"Shit, bracket me," Levi said, adding in a small voice, "Thank you."

Lars, the father who walks with him, laughs without saying anything.

If you arrive in a given space, prepare the stalls as usual.

Then, after the first peak in the morning, the architect came.

“Welcome, and thank you for all your help. Actually, I'd like to talk to you about--"

"Maybe about the wedding the day after tomorrow?" Well, then, I've been listening to you for a long time. "

When Baran's darling answered, Levi, who was working in the stall next door, came out with his mouth red again.

"Ji, actually, Milan-Mass was consulting with those people about the expansion." it would be too cramped for me to roll into Terrier = Mas's bedroom..... "

"I've already got a quote." Thanks to you, your stay has lapsed for another day. "

"Oh, hey," he said, peeking at the smile she rarely showed.

"Well, if you give me a copper coin, I'll do my job." I'll have a sturdy room tomorrow, so you can have a good time with your partner. ”

"That's right, it's just the first few years!"

When Maiton made tea, the people around him laughed happily, and Levi's face became even more red. Well, there is no shadow of discord in the House of Maiton, so this will be light. So I was able to share my joy with you.

"Well then, I didn't have to invite you all." Can you come the day after tomorrow? "

“Hmm. I'm not as busy as I was going to be at the wedding, but I was thinking of going out to the evening celebration. I heard you were going to do the cooking, too."

The architect's faces are not so deeply related to those involved in the [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion]. Even during the Easter Festival, the Terrier-Masses stayed in the inn, so they didn't have the opportunity to deepen their interaction.

However, Levi and I face each other every day at the stall, and our mutual friends, Yumi and Luia, Ben and Cargo, are the occasions on which we made noise at Easter. Besides, a small number of people from the forestside planned to rush to celebrate, so I also wanted to invite them.

And it came to pass after a while, that the faces of the Silver Pot were.

I was invited for the same reason as the architect, and I was able to get approval safely.

"It's actually the weddings of the people I talked to yesterday." Thanks to Radazid, we were able to carry the wedding safely. ”

And when Levi had spoken unto him with a low voice, he narrowed his eyes gladly, saying, Really?

"Then I will definitely go out to celebrate the night."...... Shmiral = Lilin, are you coming? "

“Yes, Schmiral-Lilin is not unknown to Terrier-Mass.”

"So, joy, doubling."... well, I just visited Lilyn's house a few days ago. "

The period of stay in Silver Pot is coming to an end. And they were also invited to the forest every now and then for the last twenty days.

In any case, I feel even more satisfied with the approval of both groups.

It was Roy and Siri = Rowe who had just met two days before.

"Hey, that girl Sheila told me a story." Levi and Terrier-Mass are going to give you a wedding? "

It was Levi who exclaimed in amazement, “Eh!?”

"Wait, wait, Asta." Have you spread this story to the people of the castle town? "

"Roy's the only ones I've told you about." Both Roy and Siri = Row had the opportunity to deepen their interaction with Terrier = Mas before the tasting. "

"Yes, several times at a feast near the forest."... but it was suddenly a wedding the day after tomorrow, so I was surprised. "

Shifting the collar of the dustpan, Cily-Rowe said so.

"So, here's my suggestion... would you like us to serve you something to celebrate?"

"When did you have a celebratory meal?" But... do you have to pay the right price to get a cook named after the castle town? "

"I would like to offer it free of charge as a substitute for the ceremony. You can pay for the ingredients, right?"

“Yes, that's what we're asking.”

When I say that, Levi's puzzled gaze is directed at me.

"Well, then, did Asta call out to these people in that way from the beginning?"

No, I didn't know how Siri = Rowe would feel, so I just wanted to share my intel with you.

"Oh, I see. But... have you been interacting with Theria = Mas so much that you can burn such care?" You and Yumi seem to be getting along a lot, but I've heard that kind of story before.... "

Well, that's just because Yumi's temper looks like that.

This time, Cily-Rowe said that while her face became a little red.

“However, Vulcus teaches us that we should aim for a cuisine that satisfies everyone. This is a valuable opportunity for the people of the bivouac town to eat their food... and I thought it would be more meaningful if it were related to the [Kimusu no Taiki] who was awarded the medal at the tasting."

"... what a hard thing to say." The root of all this is that I want to cook for you and Terrier-Mass, so I want you to listen to me. ”

"Oh, don't pinch the extra mouth! I don't feel so trivial-"

"No, that's probably the most obvious reason." Wouldn't it be more unjust to bring the convenience in front of the wedding celebration? "

Siri = Rowe, who was overwhelmed by Roy, bit her lips in remorse with a red face.

And it was Roy's character that wasn't cut up.

"T-There's no way we can celebrate the wedding without all the reasoning." You want to celebrate Terrier = Mas, you want Yumi to eat her own food, or you don't want to hide anything, do you? "

"Ugh, it's noisy! It's noisy!"

Siri = Rowe slaps Roy on the back like a child.

"That's why," repeated Roy, with a sophisticated face.

"I'm just off duty, so I'm always free." Can you please let me know if you want to talk suddenly? "

"Well, that's not up to me... can you talk to Milan = Mas, the innkeeper?"

Roger that. Was it your first meeting with the innkeeper? Well, if Terrier = Mas is here, is it okay? Then I'll have some street food over here, and then I'll head to the inn. "

"Ah, Roy. Is Vulcus okay?" It means we're not going to do this again. "

Roy smiled bitterly as I clasped his mouth like that.

"I just bothered you around the forest, so I'm going to be patient this time." If we had talked about this before, it might have been a very troublesome situation. "

“I see. I'm glad people are so enthusiastic this time.”

"Damn it.... but if I leave you alone, I'll be blowing up again, so now I'd like to invite Asta and the others to my castle."

“Yes, we were just talking about it that way. In the castle town, Vulcus can also sit down and participate in the study group."

With that in mind, Roy and Siri = Rowe ate the food from the stall and then went to [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion]. It took about half a minute for Milan-Mass to safely approve it and come back, after the peak of Jomtien was over.

"Well then, I'll go back to the castle and consider what kind of offerings I'll make." Well, I don't have much choice to worry about. "

“Yes, I could have delivered a fuller meal if I could have even handled Dalai Lama's vegetables freely, but... it would be a shame to refill them.”

When Roy and Sily-Rowe said so, Levi said, "Thank you."

"I'll never forget what you've noticed."... if you're going to give me a wedding, call me, too. "

"What are you talking about!" Roy and I are not in such a relationship! "

As Siri = Rowe's face turned bright red, Levi's eyes tightened sharply.

”No, I meant each wedding for you and Roy... but if you misunderstand me, I'll apologize”

Siri = Rowe grows even more red, and Roy laughs, "Haha."

"I didn't get it all wrong."... but if you deny it with all your might, you're going to hurt me a little bit. "

"Ah, ah, what are you talking about!"

"Don't make a scene in front of the store. It's annoying.... See you the day after tomorrow."

Roy calmed Siri = Rowe and left in the north. Levi let out a sigh as he watched his back half his height.

”I really didn't mean to, but I did something bad to Siri = Rowe.”

"Ahahah. I think that's an overreaction from Siri = Rowe, so don't worry about it." But Levi really doesn't like to teach that kind of story. "

What do you mean, really?

"No, that's just what Yumi said yesterday."

Shit. Shut up.

And Levi smiles shyly.

Levi, who was exposed to negative emotions yesterday, looks much happier today. That's quite natural, but it was a pleasure for me.

Whatever it was, I could roughly exchange words with the people I was getting close to, so I thought I'd just concentrate on the business - and the wholesalers didn't. Little by little, an unexpected person appeared while pulling Totos' reins.

"Hey, it's my first time." I hear Genos was a big fuss, but I'm glad we're all doing well. ”

"Ah, Zashma! It's my first time!" You must have been back in Genos! "

It was the old-fashioned [Guardian] Zashma. A friendly and clearer person who looked like a bandit.

Then Lars, who noticed Zashma, rose from the crate, exclaiming, "Oh..." Bad-footed Lars always sits in a stack of crates and does business.

"This is the first time this has ever happened." It seems that you are also very healthy...... I'm really glad to hear that. "

"Oh, you look good too." I was worried because I heard about what happened to the Evil Gods. "

Zashma's attitude was unchanged, but Levi was bowing his head in a humble manner. It was Zashma who discovered and rescued Lars, who was once seriously injured, when he went and collapsed in an attempt to disappear without disturbing his son.

"Zashma, it's my first time." I can only think of it as the guidance of the Western gods to be able to see you again here....... you can't go anywhere through Genos like this, can you? "

"Yeah, I've been working hard for the last six months or so, and I'm going to let you slow down in Genos for a while. But what the hell are you talking about?"

When Levi suddenly mumbled, Lars smashed one of his heads and then acted as a spokesperson.

"I'll give you a wedding the day after tomorrow." If you'd like, you can see him in the cathedral. "

"Hey, the wedding!... is she the daughter of the inn, after all?"

Levi nodded, “Yes,” and Zashma laughed happily, “I see.”

"I'm really glad about that." No, because you guys were in the same atmosphere that I've always been reluctant to do, I've been a bit of a jerk too. "

"Oh dear, that's a bad person."... did you see us so much? "

Well, maybe it's the [Guardian's] eyesight.

With a joke, Zashma waved the reins in her hand.

"By the way, if you go to the inn to deposit the tots, it looks like some of the food will be sold out." I'm sorry, but can I connect you to the back? "

“Go ahead, this is where we rent, including that.”

“Thank you. I should have arrived earlier, but the people at the house couldn't get away.”

So he probably stayed in his hometown of Dabag last night. It would have been wonderful if I could have had a warm evening with that scrupulous father, my great mother and my honest brothers-in-law.

Then I looked back at Levi as I watched Zashma walk away to go around the back.

"Nevertheless, Zashma was aware of the feelings of the Levites." It's not like we're together, but it's a big deal....... but if I had [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion] as my permanent residence, I would often see Levi and Terrier-Mass spending time together. "

"Ugh, shut up.... did Asta think about us?"

No, I just happened to overhear Terrier = Mas's feelings, and Levi was refreshed.

"What do you mean, eavesdropping!" I didn't hear that! "

"I'm sorry. See, when Terrier-Mass was invited to a feast on the edge of the forest, you borrowed a banquet costume from Yumi like it was meant for a Levi, right?" At that time, I happened to hear Theria-Math confide her feelings to Yumi. "

"Ahh... that's such a nostalgic story."

And Levi looked a little farther away.

"At that time, you also made Terrier = Mas feel painful." Really, I was stupid. "

"... after all, I wonder if Levi was also drawn to Terrier-Mass back then?"

Levi looked at me sideways and smiled shyly, saying, "I won't say it."

It was a smile mixed with an age-appropriate initiality of 17 years old and an adult-like appearance that only a person who was close to refraining from the wedding could have.
