Isekai Ryouridou

Then a few moments later, we had settled into the Westwind Pavilion as planned.

Ai-fa and Jou-run, who later rendezvoused, are also in the same seat. Nevertheless, just like last time, the people by the woods were scattered all over their seats, so Jou-Run and others are far away. It was Ben and Cargo's bad combination that was on the same table as us.

"Nevertheless, I didn't know you were being stolen from by the nobles of the King's Capital. I was obsessed with playing games, and I didn't even notice what it looked like."

It was Ben who stated it that way while tongue-in-cheek on the Giva dishes of The Westwind Pavilion. Cargo cheerfully giggles because Ey-Fa frowned so much.

"Ai-fa, you don't care about that nobleman. But I didn't do anything wrong, so I don't think I can make a scene like that, right?

"I know," he responded, then I = fa bumped and crushed with a voice that only I could hear.

"But if you expected him to show up, you should tell him a word or so... isn't that a lot unfriendly for Gazran-Rutim"

"What are you talking about? Look, a new dish is here!

Sil, Yumi's mother, was seen bringing in a new wood plate. The contents of the wood dish are juicy dishes made with miso. Even in the Westwind Pavilion, Miso could be bought up safely.

The same thing is handed out and cheered on the other seats. To the people of the woodland, to the young people of the lodging town, and then to the guests and passers-by, the Westwind Pavilion was still full today.

"Oh, isn't this guy pretty good, too? Sounds a little different than the juice dishes sold at the Lew's, huh?

In response to Ben's words, I picked up a wooden spoon, "Which one?"

I just shrugged the soup first and it is a lot more textured. It's like stew or something. When I checked the flavor that way, it was rich in the flavor of caron milk and had a precisely miso cream stew reminiscent finish.

"Oh, I see. This is an interesting attempt.... What do you think of Raina-Lou?

I was in a back-to-back seat with Rayna-Lew, so I put my neck up and asked. Rayna-Lew looks back with a serious face.

"As an attempt, I find it interesting. Just a little more, think about the amount of miso and caron milk... and then you just want to add some stock to bring depth."

"Oh, sure. And there seems to be room to season it with tau oil or sugar. Shall I suggest it to Yumi later?"

"Right. I kind of nod because I want to put my hands on it. In just a few moments, you're going to feel like you have definite harmony."

This was already like Kamadu's occupational disease by the woods.

Well, it would be wild to continue this kind of secrecy. I decided not to turn to my table and enjoy cooking and bickering.

"Hold on, Zwei-Rutim surprised me! And for the Rau-Ray one, too. I don't think I learned to play the game months ago."

A cargo of laid-back temperament among the youth is such a rap today. After that, Cargo was still up against him several times, but he couldn't beat Zwei-Rutim once, and it seemed like both Rau-Ray had almost a five-minute score.

"Ai-fa was late to come, so you couldn't compete. Ai-fa's got a lot of arms up, too, right?

"Well, I guess that would have been more skillful than when I first remembered"

"Next time, do me a favor, okay? I'm gonna brush my arm with a little temper, too!

Cargo and Ben enthusiastically point the water at me, so the unfathomable Ai-Fa could have joined the conversation quite a bit. Also, even if I try to be an eye-fa, you want to be quiet at home or you want to mouth my dishes, swallow all kinds of authenticity and try to bond with the people of the Inn Town.

Yamil-Ray and Zwei-Rutim may be in the same mood. Together with their respective parents, they surround the table with the youth of the accomodation town in a slightly remote seat. I was just wondering what kind of conversation was going on there, even for me.

"Levi and Terrier-Mass, too, have been so happy to be here. It's because of this gathering."

"Oh, sure. I don't think I had the manpower to do that today."

"That inn over there seems to flourish every day, too.... but when are they going to stick around? Looks like the stall business is going well, and it's about time. Why not?

"… by the woods, it is considered disrespectful to speak out at the wedding of the extra house"

"But they're not from the woods, they're from Inn Town. It's kind of you to chill him properly."

"Is it kind of you to chill?

Round your eyes, as Ai-Fa was wholeheartedly surprised. Was the reaction interesting, Ben and Cargo were laughing.

"Well, I'm not being kind and chilling over here. But sometimes when you get stuck around, you get held back by it, don't you? Isn't it kind of you to say you look good on the right people?"

"I see... it's hard to convince you from the bottom of your heart, but maybe that will open the right path"

"Yes, yes. I don't think Ai-Fa and Asta need a pushback."

Eye-Fa's eyes glowed brightly, "Ouch!," he decided to shift Ben behind each chair.

There, with a basin with dishes on it, Yumi approaches.

"Uh, I'm finally done helping! Guys, are you excited?

"What, you don't have to go to Joo-Run's?

"Ugh!... There were seats buried over there, so there's no other way."

"Then you should call that way. But hey. I'll call you."

I didn't even hear Yumi stop, and Ben just took a seat. Seeing it, I also stir the dish that was left of the cargo in my mouth.

"I'll talk to the Rau-Rays for a minute. Sorry to bother you."

"No more! If I don't turn my extra mind around!

Yumi blushing his face on his ass, and Cargo walks away, too. Yumi said, "Already!" In a row, I soaked the fruit liquor like a jerk.

"... have you revealed to the others a matter with Joo-Run?

"I didn't say anything! They're just turning their minds around!

"Right. So why don't you tell us everything? Are they your precious friends?

I - Fa was concerned about one of them. I guess it's because it doesn't fit the values of the woodland that we keep the story that we revealed to Levi and Terrier-Mass to Ben and Cargo. Yumi was looking back on Ai-Fa, as she turned increasingly red in her face.

"I don't feel like talking like that. They're supposed to chill out."

"... the act of chilling is one kind thing, which I just heard."

"That's the rationale on the chilling side, isn't it? Me... me too. Well, sometimes I chill out Vina-Lou. Come on."

"Then shouldn't we reveal it all the more?

Yumi stuck around.

"Stop. Don't hunt him down with those straight eyes.... Ai-Fa 'Cause it's embarrassing to reveal these stories, isn't it?

Fortunately, Yumi was stuck on the table, so Ai-Fa didn't have to be seen where her cheeks turned red.

"I'm not saying I should stick around and break my heart. Until I thought I should let you know in what way your house and Lan's house are trying to find the right path. If you know that correctly, maybe you can also lose your temper to chill out?

"That's not true. Because they're not like the people by the woods. I've decided to keep you cool!

"Right. … so come on, that's a troubling place"

"Haha," Yumi chuckled as she gave her face just a little.

"Something's tough with the tone, but wasn't it a conversation between normal daughters? I never thought I'd be able to talk to you like this."

"Well," he said, ai-fa stroking his reddish cheeks.

There, Joo-Run approaches with a chick.

"Oh, Yumi. You're finally done with your work. Ben came to let me know."

"Yeah, sort of.... What's wrong with that idiot?

"If being stupid is about Ben, he's sitting in the seat I was sitting in. We were just talking about changing seats."

Ben must have distracted you just as much as Cargo. Sitting next to Yumi with a smile, Joo-Run tilted his little neck wonderfully.

"Yumi, your face looks a lot red. Did you drink too much fruit liquor?

"It's nothing! You don't have to worry about it!

"Really? Beware of drinking too much fruit liquor"

Joo-Run is grinning. Both those who find it fascinating and those who flatter it will exist together. As far as I'm concerned - the ratio was 70% for the former and 30% for the latter.

(If Yumi were a forest folk, he'd be offering a wedding, what 'd he say, Joo-Run?)

That, oddly enough, was very similar to what Dick-Dom told Morn-Rutim. Whatever the differences in position, they put themselves in a fairly similar situation.

(Jou-Run and Yumi, Dick-Dom and Morn-Rutim, Lau-Ray and Yamir-Ray, Schmiral and Vina-Lou...... and now Mora-Naham and Fay-Baim too? Guys, you got suspicious of someone you can't easily give you a wedding)

And that was the same thing with me and Ai-Fa.

Is that why I don't think of their plight as human resources?

Of course, even to Sin-Luu and Lara-Luu and to Levi and Terrier-Mass, I wish them happiness. But I get more emotional with people in more difficult situations than that.

(Maybe... Me and I-Fa, they think that way too)

Thinking that way, I looked back at Ai-Fa better.

Ey-fa, who was stuck with the rest of the dish, doesn't look right at me - and blushes in an instant. Ai-Fa pulled my shoulder and pulled his mouth under my ear.

"Why don't you stop? Why are you looking at me like that?

"It's a dialogue I'm often told by I-Fa, but what kind of eyes do I have at times like this?

When I whispered back, Ai-Fa twisted my right ear thoroughly. "Ouch. Ouch!" and when he turns, the two fronts look at him like he's going to.

"What's going on? Did Asta do anything wrong?

"Did I-Fa drink too much fruit liquor, too?

"Nothing!," Ai-Fa said, releasing my right ear. The pain left soon, so I guess he was doing quite a bit of relief.

"Nah, doesn't Yumi sing yet?

And, from the back seat, Rud-Lew calls. Yumi was about to sprinkle the soup she had rinsed.

"Why do I have to sing every time? I mean, how do you know Rud-Lew does that?

"You sang here and you had a good reputation, so you were supposed to sing at Fou's feast, too, right? Sure, humi's singing, something awesome."

Rud-Lu also heard Yumi's song at the wedding feast of Fou and Sudra. Joo-Run looked back in surprise as Yumi was wearing his head off.

"Did Yumi mean not to sing? I was so excited to blow the whistle to match Yumi's song..."

"'Cause, you know, when you know a lot of people, you're still a little embarrassed."

"Really... I feel kind of very happy when I'm whistling sideways to match Yumi's song. You don't have one finger, but you can feel like you're alone with Yumi."

Yumi turned red again and was to snap Joo-Run's back.

"Oh, you, you look so serious, what are you talking about!

"Was something wrong? But that's what I mean.... If you didn't like Yumi, could you let me whistle again today?

There is a pitiful light in Joo-Run's eyes, which he has taken seriously. Yumi twirled her head and then snapped that back again.

"Okay, so don't look at me like that!... a lot, because he's big and he's like a child..."

"Does that still mean you'll feel like your brother?

As Joo-Run embarked on himself in a panicked manner, Yumi stuck a baked poitan into its mouth that had not yet reached her. Joo-Run is tilting his neck, while chewing on the grilled poiton for now.

(Something tells me Joo-Run feels a little like a dog, too. Rau-Ray and I seem to have different breeds of dogs)

That's what I thought, biting off my laughter.

Then a while later, Yumi and Joo-Run, who finished cooking, take their seats and advance into the center of the room. The people who perceived everything just that, were cheering early.

"Uh, it's the only way, so I'm gonna sing some songs. What do you guys want to hear?

Really, different song names are suggested from all over. "I don't know what you're talking about!" I spoke to Ai-Fa, flanking Yumi.

"You were lucky to hear Yumi's song again today. Looks like Joo-Run has a lot more songs to play, so maybe we can hear some new ones again."

"Right," responded Ai-Fa, on the top of the Buddha. I'm supposed to have an unparalleled fondness for Ey-Fa and Yumi's songs, but he seems somewhat in a bad mood.

"What's the matter with you? You still care about Fermes?

"Hmm. I still don't care if he talks to Asta in my absence"

"I hardly ever talk about it. Because today's Fermes seemed obsessed with Gazran-Rutim."

"As that Gazran-Rutim put it, I care. I wonder what the hell he's sorry about?

Ai-Fa's eyes were serious, so I decided to answer them seriously, too.

"I guess that made me feel bad that I was scorching myself for endless wishes. I can't believe I want to see everything in this world. I knew it was an extra thing for humans."

"Naturally. Was he sincerely saying such nonsense?

"Yeah. I think I meant it more than that."

Ai-Fa slowly shook her neck to the side with serious attention.

"That's too, stupid an idea. How could he have been possessed by such delusions?"

"I don't know. I don't know if I can understand that... but I guess being immersed in those thoughts means that Fermes feels happy."

"Are you saying that it feels happier to fall into such delusions than to live each day?

That being said, Ai-Fa put her gaze around her.

Whether the song is finally decided, Yumi and Joo-Run are having some sort of meeting in a whisper. A lot of people rush to get started quickly, otherwise people enjoy eating and bickering.

Rudd-Rew and Raina-Rew, Gazran-Rutim and Zwei-Rutim and Dim-Rutim, Raw-Ray and Yamil-Ray - Cargo talks to the Raw-Ray and Ben holds fruit liquor at another table. To a dozen people by the woods, the people of the lodging town that doubles it. It was like everyone was sincerely enjoying this gathering with their cheeks lit by enthusiasm.

"... it's Asta"

"Yeah, you are"

We were supposed to nod each other with our hearts.

I felt like Gazran-Rutim's words were clearly understood by us, too.

It seemed to me that wishing to know everything about the world rather than having these days made me feel happier - something I felt terribly sorry for.

(Of course, that's not bad. Even in the world I was in, there must have been a lot of people like that. Don't think about everyday life or interacting with people, you're a scholar immersed in research or something... yes, even Varcus might be the same type)

But still, Varcus is connected to a lot of people through cooking. His disciples seem to love their master with all their heart, and even by the woods, there are many human beings who admire Vulcus.

But what about Fermes? Does there exist a human being who wholeheartedly endorses, respects, and empathizes with his actions? In the first place, he feels like he hasn't asked for anything like it at all from the beginning.

(Well... so maybe Fermes isn't quite liked by the folks by the woods for all their goodwill and favors. After all, he has a little resemblance to Camus... and I guess he's more afloat than Camus)

When it was, Barsha used to criticize the Camua-Josh thing. Camua-Josh himself was not on the spot, and he had harsh words against Leyt, who called him a teacher.

It was just that - in the wake of Leyt's words that Camuer-Josh drew drawings of defeating Cycleus by combining spinning edges in different places, he had stated that it might be like God or something was preying on human destiny. It may have seemed to Barsha that Camua-Josh treated humans like handkerchiefs and was also interested in playing matches.

(But I'm also able to feel human love from Camus. Camus is never the kind of person who only thinks of others as handkerchiefs)

I guess it was because it passed on that Camua-Josh was also to be accepted by the people by the woods.

So what about Fermes?

Can he also cultivate more than just academic interest, but also human affection? Speaking of which, he should have mentioned that he showed up on a dinner party day with Deal, hoping that human love would be nurtured between himself and us, etc.

(I guess we'll just have to go for it, too. Because with Camus, it took a lot of time to crack it right. Fermes and so that we can deepen our human-like interactions...... I guess we'll have to go one step at a time)

When I thought of it that way, the whistle melody finally began to flow inside the dining room.

The cheer stirs, and it calms down quickly. Soon afterwards, Yumi's song overlapped the melody of the horizontal whistle.

It's a cheerful song I don't know.

People began clapping, not interrupting songs and performances.

I guess Yumi's song has the power to move people's minds after all. I was immersed in less pleasant thoughts, too, and I was to learn the comfort of being let loose in that song.

People are also listening to Yumi's song with a satisfying smile.

Looking back, Ai-Fa also seemed to close her eyelids and relax into Yumi's song.

(to Fermes, wonder how this song sounds)

The last time I thought about that, I took Ai-Fa's hand under the table.

Ai-Fa shook her body tingly, as surprised only for a moment, but soon she shook my hand back silently.

There is a very soft smile on that face with the eyelids closed.

After burning it firmly into my eyes, I decided to close my eyelids too.

Share the joy of the occasion with the person you care about. Is there anything happier than that?

Maybe I wanted to ask Fermes that way.
