1156 Eira feast (4) - Preparation for next

Thus, the day of the wedding - the tenth day of the white month.

That day was as usual until noon, when I finished my business at the stall. After all, even the bridegroom Levi himself dared to do business in the stall.

"It's just the people around me who are in a hurry, and I don't have to do it myself until the evening." There's no reason to leave work alone. "

While folding like that, of course, Levi was nervous from the morning.

Lars looks very happy, saying, "You're a hopeless one." I can see my only son grow up and give a wedding, so my father will be exhausted.

I couldn't even let my dad see me like that.

While keeping my personal sentiments in my mind, I also carried out the business of the day.

After that, I went back to the forest to prepare a festive meal. It was impossible for the Chef of Kimusu's Tail Pavilion to do so on a large scale, so we had no choice but to deliver what we had finished by the edge of the forest.

The place of work is the settlement of Luwu. Even when I returned to Fa's house, I only lost time, so I decided to work here.

Then when we got back to Luu's settlement, you had a familiar wagon waiting for you. The white bone birds were painted with waterfalls, and it was Rico's wagon.

"Good job! It's been a while, Asta!"

"Hey, Rico and the others are already here."

"Yes! I'm sorry if I was inadvertently late, so I decided to interrupt the Luu family!"

Recently, Riko and his team traveled from the north to the forestside village to perform the puppet show for dinner, and during the day they practiced the play in the deserted village of the deceased clan.

"I practice on the road, but people stop by on the roadside, and in the wilderness, there is a risk of being attacked by beasts and bandits, so it's quite difficult!" I really appreciate your forgiveness for practicing around the forest! "

When the Three Patriarchs asked for forgiveness, Rico said so.

Rico and the others have done a lot of work in Genos, so they're pretty pampered. So now, we are spending time reworking the puppet costume and practicing the play, aiming to further step up.

Rico came here to unveil the puppet show at a festive table. Rico had been interviewed by [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion] in order to complete the [Kamado Asta by the Forest], so he knew the people involved. In addition, since [Kimusu no Taikō] is the base of my activities in the bunker town, Rico seemed to have deep feelings as well.

"I was able to make a name for the inn in the play, but my husband told me to stop. She said that it would be odd to sell her name to the people around the forest anymore... and that her husband was a very sincere person, though he seemed blurry."

When I was working on the [Kamadobe Asta by the Forest], Rico said that.

In any case, Rico and the others came to the festive seats because of the circumstances. While receiving a fixed reward from the [Kimusu no Tail Pavilion], it seems that all the sighting fees obtained at the scene will be returned as a celebration. Of course, at the festive table, Rico and the others were able to eat the food as they liked.

“Milan-Mass asked the guards to forgive us for showing the play at night. We're looking forward to Rico's play, too."

“Yes! We are looking forward to cooking with Asta!”

After that scene, we decided to start working too. At sunset, I would also attend the cathedral wedding, so the time was quite tight.

That said, it would be a nuisance for too many people to press on to the cathedral, so only I, Yun-Sudra and Rei-Matua, and four other people, Faye-Behm, would play that role in the little clan's kamado. Since Terrier-Mass had many occasions to attend the feast of the Luu family, the faces of the attendees were decided around it.

"But we used to face Levi every day through the stall business!" I personally tried to deepen my relationship with Terría-Mas and Milan-Mas! "

It was Ray-Matua who was working in the same place as me. She has been happy ever since the head of the family allowed her to attend today's wedding and feast.

Fay-Baim is silently engaged in the work. Rumor has it that she always wished for a seat at the wedding with such enthusiasm.

Others take on the task of serving meals at the festive table. Tulle-Din, Marfila-Naham, Lili-Lavitz, Gaz, Ratz, and Rid's ladies are very reliable faces. In the other Kamado hut, Luu's bloodline was preparing the banquet meal with the same amount of strength.

"So the other clans are free to attend the feast." Among them, the elders and the elders headed to the cathedral... and then Joe = Lan? "

“Yeah, I guess Joe Lang was the one who was most active in interacting with the people in the camp town. Not only Yumi, but also Levi and his friends.”

"I see. I was rather surprised to hear that the elders were going to the cathedral... Is that because of the Sun family and [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion]?"

It was Yun-Sudra who secretly asked.

The brother-in-law of Milan-Mass is the deputy commander of a large trade regiment and is believed to have been killed by someone in the Sun family. Then, when he was heartbroken by the death of the person, he passed away like a chase. He was the companion of Milan = Mas and the mother of Teria = Mas.

"Maybe that's how Dalí-Saudi feels."...... but Georg = Zaza just wants to see the banquet in the station town. "

After that, Tour-din will also be seated.

With that, Yun-Sudra whispered as she clasped her own ears. That was a good enough story, so I laughed, "That's right."

"That reminds me, but it's Late I'm sorry about." For Late, Terrier = Mas is like her sister, so she would have liked to see her wedding. "

"Oh, Zashma is back, but Camua-Josh and Late are hardly back."...... Could the Camuas-Josh have delivered Chil-Rim to [Gamley's Seat]? "

“I don't know, I just hope so.”

In that way, we were able to take this wedding as a starting point for various things.

After a while, the front gets noisier. The huntsmen who finished their work early must have started gathering. Soon Ai = Fa came and greeted me, but I thought I shouldn't get in the way of my work, so I quickly went somewhere.

"All right, now we're ready." I managed to make it in time.

At the present moment of the fifth moment of the descent, we are finally ready. Until the wedding ceremony begins at the cathedral, there are only half a minute left.

"So, Asta, please leave." We'll take care of the food. ”

And it was the women of Ratz who said that to me. When Yun-Sudra and I get out at the same time, she's the one to rely on most. Although the power of Tour-Din and Malfira-Naham is great in terms of preparing food, the type who can demonstrate leadership like Lara-Ruu shows it.

When I left the room to thank the ladies of Rats, Ai-Fa had already prepared the wagon for me in the square. When I rushed over, I suddenly stood up.

"Lau, Lau-Ray! What's wrong with that face?"

"Oh, ahhhhh." Miyohiro Hiroki Rakura, Hinpa Rakura "

I can't hear half of what you're saying. It was supposed to be the same, and Lau-Ray's left cheek swelled up like a hamster containing food.

"It seems that the wound he sustained with Levi's fist was pushed out." The wounds on the inside of your mouth are quite troublesome, too. "

When Eifa replied in that way, Yamil-Ray sighed deeply as she stood by Lau-Ray.

"More than anything, that dinner was a soup dish made with vanilla." If the wound hurts, I said I'd rebuild something else.... "

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Lau-Ray was laughing with a sinister face. Only the left side of my face was blessed, and I looked like Mida-Lou.

"Ah, well, if Levi sees that face, I think he'll be surprised." Maybe we should hide it until the ceremony is over? "

Rau-Ray laughed with the same expression and pulled out a long band from the hidden pocket of the hunter's clothes. In the cathedral, they're going to wrap it around like a collar.

"All right, let's go. Six of us in the wagon."

We got into the wagon on Eifa's orders. Eighteen people can fit three wagons in the cathedral. From the blood of Ruu, in addition to Ray's two sons, Lara-Ruu and Rimi-Ruu, Rud-Ruu and Sin-Ru, and Ziba's grandmother were involved. After all, the more sociable a person is, the closer he is to Levi and Terrier-Mass. From the hunters of the small clan, Chim-Sudra was elected as if he were Jo-Ran's eyesight.

In addition, because of the convenience of storing the luggage carts there, the faces of Zaza and Souti have already gathered here. And the faces of the women of the house of Dari-sauthi, and of the subdivision of Sauthi, Georg-Zaza, and Sphila-Zaza. Since the number of people was just right, I and Ei = Fa agreed to ride with the four of them.

"What, does Toole-Din go to the cathedral?" He would have been in the station town since he was older than anyone. "

And when the wagon started, Georg = Zaza said so, so I explained.

"Since Terrier-Mass has been working in the inn for a long time, we only have the chance to face each other at the handover of the stall, right? I think Terrier-Mass had a rather sophisticated temper, so it was easier to get along with people who had a particularly sociable temper around the forest.”

"I see. Well, I didn't know what she looked like myself." Even if the daughter named Yumi does not face each other, it is clearly left an impression. "

"Oh, Yumi is very aggressive and doesn't spoil anyone."... but for me, they're both dear friends. "

Hmm. I'm not avoiding people who cheat with me.

Georg-Zaza, who cherishes Toole-Din, spilled her white teeth while saying so.

Sphyra-Zaza sits right in the folds of the swinging wagon, and the women of the Souti family smile. This lady is one of the members who usually stays at Fa's house, and when her eyes met with mine, she broke her face even more happily.

"Even though I hardly knew the two weddings, I was allowed to be a chief again. I'm really excited about what a wedding in a station town looks like.”

"I see, but it's not that flashy, so don't expect too much."

“Yes, I don't think it's a big deal whether it's flashy or not.”

This seems to have been more unknown to me. [M] The innocent family, like the people on the edge of the forest, could not question the quality of the ritual in terms of flashiness.

The three wagons ran smoothly through the road and eventually arrived at the station town.

It's a post town at sunset where you can see the cracks. By sunset, it was less than an hour, and the sun was more or less leaning west, but the traffic was as busy as in the afternoon.

First, I turned to [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion] - you were waiting for Milan-Mas and Lars, who were dressed more finely than usual.

"You're finally here." Let's pack up the truck and get going. "

Both of the weddings have left the cathedral to cleanse themselves beforehand. We were in a hurry to clear out Totos and the wagon, and we were going to drive out on the street together.

Eighteen people on the edge of the forest are walking, so the people who go around have their eyes wide open. However, because we are fast-footed, no one tried to call out to us.

Is it really good that you pushed so many adults anyway?

When I called him that, Lars laughed and answered, "Yes."

"After all, Levi and I don't have any relatives... only the relatives of the Mass family, so it's easy to feel the cathedral so vastly."

"I see. A family is just like Fa's house." Then the joy of the wedding will come to pass. "

And then Ei = Fa shouted from next to me. There was a very soft light in those blue eyes.

"And from this day forward, you shall be of the blood of Milan-Mass and others. It's a fascinating story to talk about."

"It's really a good story." Well, it's easy to just wait to get fucked up... but it's easier for young Levi to open up a fine path and be thankful from the bottom of his heart. "

Then Milan-Mass, who was walking at the forefront, said, "Hmm!" and snorted.

"Even though you're only five years younger than me, what are you talking about?" Since Levi is still a worthless boy, I can't help but ask you to hold on to him. "

Hey, if Levi does anything wrong, I'll kick your ass.

When Lars returned a soft smile, Milan-Mass spilled a smile that made him want to say that he was unbeatable.

Nevertheless, it is surprising that Milan-Mass was so old. Milan-Mass looks energetic and young, and Lars has an old-fashioned atmosphere somewhere, so such a gap would arise.

However, regardless of the number of relatives, the same applies to Milan-Mas when there are only two families living in the same house. The joy of being a family of four was hard to imagine for the rest of us.

"Honestly, today's cathedral is so far away." I've only been to the cathedral of Selva, Miza, and Madual. "

Ludo-Lou, who carried Granny Ziba, said so. I was still carrying the wheelchair that Rico and the others gave me today, but I saw that this pace would make the shaking worse, so Rudo-Ruu had to bear it earlier. The unattended wheelchair was being pushed by Lara-Lou in preparation for the return journey.

“The cathedral of Eila, where the wedding takes place, is built in the middle of a residential area. Travelers don't have a place to run errands, so there's no place to put them on the side of the street.”

"Ah, I heard that the people of the south often visit the cathedral of Madual, while the people of the east often visit the cathedral of Miza." Do you offer your prayers so that business can go well and so that you can travel safely? ”

Hmmm. You've become a lot more obsessed with the little gods and the cathedral, too.

"No, I'm just sightseeing with the children and the ladies." But, until then, I didn't even remember the name of Kojin. "

While saying that, Rudo = Ru looked back at me.

“On the first day, I could get in three wagons and go to the Selva's Cathedral, and they told me I couldn't keep it on top of that. Since then, it's been assigned to the shrines of Miza and Madual.”

"Oh, that's right." Well, the cathedral is usually full of children in town, so I guess that's natural. "

"That's right." So, Eira and Gili Gu's cathedral were the only ones that didn't have babies. Ella said it was a wedding and Gili Gu was a funeral shrine. "

Milan-Mass sighed with some emotion as I said, "I see."

"It's normal for us, but not for the people around the forest." Well, since the people around the forest used to do weddings and funerals on their own, it's only natural. "

"I see... that's why I feel so bad about being able to watch the wedding in the station town..."

Granny Ziba, carrying Rudo-Ru, said so with a clear look.

"And this is the first wedding of your daughter who was kind to Asta in the station town, which is even more delightful..."

"... it looks like something has been told." I was asked by a familiar guy named Camouflage to lend me a stall. "

"But after that, when the Astas were about to be evaded because of the Sun family, you kept spinning your edges...?" That's why you owe it to you to have this day today... "

“Yes, I think so too.”

I agreed with him a moment ago, but Milan-Mass turned back forwards and said, "Hmm." It's the depth of Milan-Mass that doesn't show you the truth.

"While I was clapping my mouth, I arrived." That's Ella's cathedral. "

My eyes were already on the building. The cathedral is one of the few stone buildings in the post town, so it's eye-catching.

It's a very large building, just like the Selva Cathedral I know. The land area is more than twice the size of a regular house, separated from other buildings by a short stone wall. Before I heard of the cathedral, I felt a solemn atmosphere somewhere.

But if you peek inside, it's a lot more lively than solemn.

There were 3 to 40 people in a space that could fit as many as 100 people, and which people were making a circle everywhere and chatting.

By the entrance, there was something like a reception desk, where an old nun wore a red and yellow shoulder strap and a white long clothes.

“Welcome to Eira's Cathedral. Are you going to attend today's wedding?"

Hmm. Me and Lars are the parents of the wedding.

"Oh, I've been waiting for you." I just want to show you around. ”

At the old woman's signal, the young girl in the same dress approached with a clear step. Milan = Mas and Lars disappeared into the back door, guided by her daughter.

"When the fifth half of the descent is reached, we will begin the practice of pledging. Until then, please make yourself at home.... I'll take care of the sword and coat."

Having been told in advance, Ai-Fa promptly deposited the sword and coat with the nuns.

Then, as you step into the cathedral hall, a small figure rushes towards you. Realizing this, Rimi-Lou opened her arms and hugged her.

"Rimi-Lou, I've been waiting for you!" I missed you! "

"Wow! Tara, it's been a long time!"

Ten-year-old girls clutching each other's tiny bodies. It was Lara = Lou who smiled bitterly at the smiling figure.

"Even if it's the first time, it shouldn't have been five days." Tara's always staying with Rimi on duty. "

But until then, I've been able to see you for a day!

"That's right!" It's my first time! "

Dora's father and Tara, who no longer have the work of selling vegetables at the stalls, finish their work in the morning by simply delivering the vegetables to the market and the familiar inn, but they only stay for a few days until the opening hours of the stalls.

Releasing herself from Rimi-Lou, Tara noticed the figure of Granny Ziva, who was lowered into a wheelchair, and said, "Ahh!” He raised his voice further.

"Grandmother Ziba, you're so good!" Let's celebrate Terrier = Mas together! "

"Ah, that's right..." said Granny Ziva, smiling happily.

There, Dora's father rushed over with his sword.

"Hey, I told you not to move alone."... the people around the forest have been waiting for you. It's the first time that the eldest of you has had a good time, isn't it? "

"Ahh, Dora looks good too... isn't she a fine dress today..."

"Yeah. That's exactly what you normally look like, there's something cheap about it." I can't help but feel cramped since my son's wedding. "

Normal dad wears something like a sleeveless vest, or he's half-naked with one waistband. It was funny how it seemed to be so clumsy just because it was wrapped in a very common short-sleeved jacket.

Tara is dressed in the usual one-piece clothes, with just a little floral decoration on her scorched brown head. We came in our usual outfits because we heard that it was good manners not to overdress the attendees at the wedding in the station town.

"Oh, Asta and the others are finally here!" It's a lot too late! "

and more people gathered. Levi's bad friends, led by Ben and Cargo. They were also classified as bad boys in the station town, and seemed to be dressing up a bit today.

Zashma, who had a relationship with the Easter Festival, is melting into the group, and discovers Dunlo, who is supposed to be the leader of another group. Ben is slightly older than the others, and was once the prize-winner at Totos' early-running tournament. When he noticed my gaze, Dunlo laughed reluctantly.

"I've been hanging out with Ben and the others a lot lately." I don't really know what Levi is all about..... "

"Levi is soaked in work every day!" But Levi's dad said he didn't care about anything. Well, you've never been more lively. "

Then you must be as busy as we are. Excluding this group, other attendees seemed to have a much higher average age, and it seemed that they were all related to the Mass family.

(Lars must have broken the border with his evil companions when he left the favela.)

Then we, as Levi's friends, ought to see this wedding through.

When I was feeling that way, a group of young ladies brought by Yumi and Luia joined me.

"Don't you guys keep making a lot of noise!" The ceremony is about to begin! "

"Before that, you guys were more noisy."...... but, well, let's just keep quiet. "

The back of the cathedral was lined up with chairs like benches without backs, and the elderly attendees had already begun to sit down.

The fact that these people are hardened on the right is that they are definitely guests on the bride's side. Yumi, the ladies and Dora's father and daughter are in your back row, and we're going to be on the left.

Considering the length of the relationship with Levi, Ben and the others will sit in the front row. Granny Ziba also moved her seat from the wheelchair and was caught between Ludo-Lou and Lara-Lou from the left and right.

The number of people seated decreases, and the busyness at the top turns into a solemn atmosphere.

Then, from a distance, the bell rang --- and as a signal, a person thought to be the ruler appeared in front of the altar.

"Now then, I will perform the wedding of Terrier-Mas, the son of [Kimusu no Taiko], and Levi, the servant of the same inn." Please stand up and welcome the two of you. ”

The wedding ceremony is about to begin.

I was going to sit up with the others while holding on to my soaring heart.
