172 (10) People of the South, the West and the East

Name:Isekai Ryouridou Author:Eda
The following day, on the 31st of the Blue Moon, the number of escorts was to be increased to four.

Such measures were taken because of the ominous words of advice left by Camua-Josh and the opinion of Ai-Fa that "I feel watched over by someone".

The increase was made by Sin-Luu and a boy from Luu's branch who I'm not very familiar with.

Unfortunately, they can't easily ask Rau-Ray, the head of the Ray family, for escorts or anything like that.

"Besides, Rau-Ray is short minded. Weren't you worried about letting people in town deal with you?

is what Rudd-Lou says.

If that's Donda-Lou's idea, it seems quite thought-provoking to me too. It will come as no surprise to me that the castle man is the opponent, no matter what kind of admirer is used.

But - in this situation, would there be a reason for Cycleus to give us a little something?

Get in the way of our business, Cycleus will gain. I can't imagine one thing on that path right now.

We had nothing else to do with business without even knowing what the hell to watch out for.

And I personally have a case that is as heavy on my mind as Cycleus' leap.

Needless to say, that was one of the last cases of Schmiral leaving Genos today and Vina-Lou.



"... is your leg okay, Vina-Lou?

Calling from the "Myrmu Grill" stall to the "Giba Burger" stall, a calm voice returned, "Yeah... it's okay..."

Vina-Lou had to return to work at the stall.

Still, it seems the sprained ankle hasn't fully healed yet, and it would have been difficult to return without a luggage lift, the story goes.

So, if there was an escort, Vina-Lou wouldn't be required to fight, so she was offered by Mother Meer Ray to go down to the lodging town on a daily basis with Raina-Lou for a while.

"Hey, I wonder when that eastern people will come?

And, along with Lara-Luu, who is bluffing the 'Myrmu Grill' stall, calls in a whisper.

"I don't know. Usually, I think it's time to show up."

"Uh, I'm kind of more restless. I'm not even talking about the dowry, but it's gonna be something exciting, isn't it?

I'm thrilled, but I don't know if that's the same emotion as Lara-Luu.

Or what is Lara-Lew thrilled about?

"I don't know that! But the people of the east seemed as serious as they talked about their dowry, didn't they? So I knew I'd be thrilled."

Saying, Lara-Lew put his hand on his chest and took a huffy breath.

"Vina, I wish my sister could just go into her daughter-in-law or take her son-in-law. Then you didn't even have to be such a hassle!

"... it's hard to say that Schmiral and Vina-Lou are bound, after all, isn't it?

"There you go!... and I'm not sure, but it's every day in town to switch gods, right?

"I'm not sure, either, but apparently you are."

"Oh, isn't Asta serving any god? That's an amazing story too!... Anyway, if you change your god, you'll also lose touch with your family, right? I'm not, I'm not!

"Um, but even if I were to live apart, I guess I wouldn't be forbidden to interact... oh, I don't know. I can't say anything irresponsible, either."

"Living away is with me wherever I'm dowry, but I don't like it when my sister Vina leaves the woods or is no longer my family"

Lara-Rue lowered her eyebrows just a little and looked like she was sucking in her lower lip.

It's quite a lovely look.

"... then what about the exotic entering the Lou family's son-in-law?

"Hmm? Isn't that nice? Then I can stay with my sister Vina as a family."

"Oh, is that okay?

"It doesn't matter to me. I suppose you think Mother Meer Ray doesn't mind either.... Donda, Dad's gonna be tough."

Donda-Lou?

I wonder how that Mitsuhito feels about this one.

"Well, but I guess I can't. The hunter's job wouldn't be boring if the eastern people were son-in-law, and in the first place, he's the kind of person who can do business in the castle town of Genos, right? There's no way he's going to abandon his life and join his son-in-law by the woods."

"Still, Lara-Lew's in the mood, don't you hate it?

"Yeah. If you're gonna make my sister Vina happy, I don't care who she is."

After all, Lara-Luu may be similar to Rud-Luu in his thinking as well as in his face.

Well, Rudd-Lou seemed to wish her sister well, even assuming the possibility that Vina-Lou would leave the woodside.

(But I guess it's hard to son-in-law or dowry...)

I can imagine my son-in-law going into a forest settlement, abandoning my hometown, my countrymen and all my previous lives - and how outrageous that is, even for me, who is a stranger to the world.

Then what about the dowry?

Vina-Lou should have had a vision for the outside world by the woods.

Besides, the people by the woods see the woods as gods and do not seem to have a clear faith in the four great gods. Then there should be no strong resistance to the very act of transferring God.

But it also feels like it's a difficult thing.

Even if we don't have strong resistance to ourselves, if we have switched gods, it will be impossible for us to continue living in the West Print - a settlement by the woods.

Schmiral has no family, and on top of that, he encourages the work of the Chamber of Commerce. But once you left your hometown of Sims, you'd spend almost a year touring towns to the west and north, or something.

In the meantime, you must not be able to leave Vina-Lou alone in the country of Sim, where you have no family.

Then Vina-Lou will also tour the world with you without having children -?

No, I can't feel reality.

Besides, I'm sure that Similar herself thought about every single one of these things, which is why she said it was "difficult".

(... Anyway, can I only hope now that Vina-Lou will accept a gift from Schmiral)

I sigh with Lara-Luu as he induces strangely annoying feelings.

I could hear Ai-Fa's cold voice "... are you here again" there.

"Ugh! Don't you have that attitude toward your customers?

It is Dial, the girl of the people of the south.

When I was a gatekeeper, I gave Ey-Fa a bell tongue, and then Dial smiled and stood in front of the 'Myrmu Grill' stall.

"Hey, I'm here today! Asta, do me one favor."

"Oh, thank you.... Is that it? If you buy it every other day, wasn't it 'Giva Burger' day?

"Hmm? Because it's delicious. Either way! I'll leave Asta here."

and is a dial where the evil of the first day smiles and laughs as if it were a lie.

With the innocent smile of such a girl, Ai-Fa lays her arms around her side.

As a matter of fact, yesterday, we were revealing the presence of this girl to Camus as well.

Although this kind of girl appeared in the stall, I wonder if it is possible that Cycleus breathed.

"Oh, an associate of the Chamber of Commerce from Zeland? All right, all right, you're a bunch of iron fixtures shops invited to Cycleus' private residence. Yeah, of course they're the ones who came to Genos at this time of year, so Melfrid's finishing up the mole. That's just a businessman, so it shouldn't be like being a handkerchief to Cycleus and giving a little to the people by the woods."

The words of such a camouflage dispelled the suspicion of this day.

However, since it does not make any difference that you are a Cycleus associate, you should still maintain a proper sense of distance.

Therefore, I decided to relate to the girl, even though I had a sales smile that was neither acceptable nor necessary.

"Hmmm, nice smell! Hey, I wonder if I can reheat this well with Kamado?

"Huh? Why?

"I want to feed the people in Castle Town! They don't trust my story at all that you can't possibly eat Giva's meat!

This was quite a goosebump statement.

"Yes, no, because after time, the food could be damaged! If that breaks your stomach, it's important. Please don't take the food back to Castle Town."

"Er!? But if I give out the copper coins, then I don't know what to do.

And, Deal pulls in a smile and puffs his cheeks.

I became the feather of thought. [M]

"But there are many people in Genos who don't welcome people by the woods or the meat of Giva. You know about that, don't you?

"Hmm? I don't know. There are so many people by the woods who look hazy, so why aren't they just scared?

Saying, Dial looked at Ai-Fa hatefully.

Ai-Fa stares back at it chilly.

"It's not that simple. Originally, Gibba was a symbol of disaster, so the people of the woodland who eat that meat were also seen as symbols of disaster together - and, uh, from the origins of switching from Southern to Western God, I can hardly even be seen as a compatriot, and my relationship hasn't improved much to this day."

"What's that? It's weird! It's been decades since the people of the woods abandoned Jagal, and they still haven't been accepted as compatriots?

You didn't even know that, and I'm more frightened.

But - if you're an exotic who deals only with Castle Town, which perception do you have at best? Because the people of the castle towns will not have the opportunity to deal with the people by the woods, nor will they be sparked by the emotions of fear.

(Right... if you do poorly, the people in Castle Town may not even get a chance to see the people by the woods for the rest of their lives. The relationship between the people of the lodging town and the people by the woods is probably the only other HR for those people)

This was a new discovery.

However, even if I tell the people by the woods, they may only say what happened to it.

"- So I can't imagine what kind of noise it would be if I brought Giva's dishes into Castle Town or something. We want to continue our business without a wave of wind, so I was wondering if you could reconsider?

Dial had been "uh-huh" for a while, but eventually he said "ok" to me in a soggy manner.

"I just wanted to make them say heh heh heh.... but if it bothers Asta, I'll stop."

He was kind of like a puppy with both ears flat down.

I say "thank you" and pull the meat and aria towards the center of the iron plate.

"You can have one, right? This dish costs two red copper coins."

"Yeah! I've been peppering my stomach, so make it yummy, huh?

and Dial grinned again, as he regained his mind.

I was just about to smile when they followed me, too, and I said, "Hey, hiccup!," he says, speaking to new visitors.

Looking back, a girl of the west people with long brown hair stood there with a bright smile no less than a dial.

If the proposition is brilliant, it is a colorful girl with ivory skin, Yumi from Westwind Pavilion, who seems to be able to hang out with Vina-Lou.

"Oh, thank you. That's a real hiccup."

"Because I have a store job, too, so I can't get out of here before Jomtien! You still go to this stall every day, right?

"Yes, I'm listening. Thank you for your time."

Alongside Dora's fathers, he is a rare regular humi as a people in the west. I've never forgotten to thank you, even if the chances of seeing each other are diminished.

(... you wouldn't even sell a fight to a customer of the people of the west, would you?

And as he got a little anxious, he looked back at me, and Dial put his hands on the stall table and looked at me like a puppy feeding.

Between your Larvis and Lara-Rue, payment for copper coins has already been made.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'll make it right now, so just wait."

"Yeah!" said Dial, laughing all the time at

Really, the speed of facial expression switching is superb.

Then - I wonder why, Yumi caught a better smile and began to judge Dial's appearance by wandering.

"You have a face you don't see, do you? Are you Asta's friend or something?

"Hmm? Not that we're friends, though?

Dial looks back at you, like a jerk.

Yumi raised her long hair with "yeah".

"So you're a regular at this store? I don't remember ever seeing a girl like you from the South."

"Regular, I wonder. This is the fourth day in a row!

I don't get paid for the first day of it, but I sneak up on my shoulders.

but it wasn't even if it was swallowing like that.

Yumi has stunned me with his eyes that have increased his severity.

"... Asta, what do you mean by this?

"Huh? What is it?

"You said I use polite language because I'm a customer! And yet, how can you talk to this customer girl like a friend!?

Has such a thing touched the inverse scales of Yumi?

Speaking of which, I don't remember my toddler daughter Tara claiming the same thing, even if she was the other person. At that time, Tara and I had never revealed the circumstances that had existed since before we opened the store.

I wonder how I can explain this time.

"No, you know, it's sort of... do you happen to be that way..."

"What's that flow? I'm not convinced at all!

"Ugh. If you're here to buy food, eat it quietly."

And as I stood my teeth on the 'Myrmu Grill' I received from me, Dial said with a firm face.

Which mouth says it! I don't even think so, but I'm a little relieved that you don't seem to be dragged by Yumi's fierceness. Apparently, this girl can respond very rationally, too, if her opponent is a compatriot or a people in the west.

"Looks like there are only two paths left for Asta to take."

But Yumi is totally better.

Saying in angry shape, Yumi has stood two of those supple fingers and poked them at my nose tip.

"Which way does Asta choose to change the approximate language about me or treat all customers equally?

"Er... it's very difficult to change the tone that has been going on for almost a month now..."

"So you're not going to take a different attitude towards me now, are you?

And, Deal laughs like an angel.

If I betray this trust, I will be angry or crying, with such an uncontrolled smile that my chest is going to be painful just imagining it.

So all I could say was, "Right."

Indeed, Yumi said, "That's sloppy!" and whisper.

"Don't just be mean to me! I've been hanging out longer, but you're terrible!

"It's a big voice. They're gonna call a guard because of you, right?

Dial, with a satisfied smile, cheeked Magu 'Meermoo Grill'.

In the meantime, I decided to take a sigh of relief so Yumi wouldn't notice.

It was then that I finally realized the chilling gaze that pierced my right cheek.

Looking back, of course, dear parents are staring at this one sideways.

I asked him with my eyes if he was angry at me.

Weird, I was returned with my eyes.

From now on, the bond between the hearts and minds of Fa's house is also excellent here, and it is.

"Um... it's hard to switch all of a sudden, so I mean deal with it positively, would you please put one away at ease...?

To keep up with the situation, when I called him that, Yumi looked at me with her eyebrows lifted.

"... are you really willing to change your mind?

"Yes... yeah... well as far as I can't help it..."

Yumi took a much louder breath before putting down two red copper coins.

"Thank you every time...... no thanks......"

"I don't feel like I'm trying at all!

"Suddenly, it's difficult."

Still, I decided to get to work on making "Myrmu Grill," which is just as good as not exercising violence as Rau-Ray.

"When the food is delicious, it attracts all kinds of customers," Dial laughs sharply.

Yumi scowled at you with a pungent face.

"... and who the hell are you? It's rare in Genos that young daughters of the people of the South are people of the Chamber of Commerce or something?

"Yeah. I'm from Zeland. I'm an iron shop."

While responding comfortably to the seemingly grumpy humi, Dial released his last bite into his mouth.

"Yeah. Ironware store. Hey.... Whatever, but why are you dressed like a man like that?

"Hmm? You can't just dress like that in Inari Town. Are you the one who doesn't dress like that and get targeted by a loose end or something?

"I was scared of wandering around and I thought I could live in a lodging town. You're a very classy kid, aren't you?"

And, Yumi put her arms together and looked down at Dial.

Speaking of which, this young lady also brought a bunch of young people like her to appear before me at the beginning of the encounter.

Today's outfit, by the way, is also a popular outfit for the people of the west, with one upper body with one chest, hiccups and ornaments, and just a long piece of cloth wrapped around it from hips to ankles. Glimpses of smooth feet from its long hip-wrapped eyelids make it glossy.

"Well, I don't mind if that's the way the people of the south are. But because you look so cute, why don't you stretch your hair? Then the boy's gonna make a mistake, isn't he?

Yes, I made a mistake.

If I thought something like that, I'd get a glimmer of blood on Deal's face that I'd grown up with until then.

"Ugh! It's my freedom to stretch or shorten my hair, right? Don't be silly because it's a little colorful!

"Whoa!," Yumi raised an odd roar.

How dare Dial make Yumi's loose breasts with his right hand?

Yumi shook off Dial's little hand, looked bright red and sat naked on the spot.

"Hey, what are you doing! All of a sudden, you surprise me!

"Hmm! Wouldn't you be complaining if it wasn't all of a sudden? Then why don't we teach him now and then we'll do it?

Dial bent his fingers like a hook claw and tried to lean over Yumi.

Yumi tries to fall back with a confused look as she hugs her upper body.

So Ai-Fa grabbed "Hey" and Dial's thin shoulder.

"Don't make a scene in front of the store. How many thoughts have thou not reflected, O daughter of the people of the south?"

Dial looked back at Ai-Fa like he was hacked.

And - Larvis, a young man who had previously stood as securely as a shadow, approached Ai-Fa with his hands on the pattern of a long sword.

"People by the woods, get your hands off Dear Deal.... or I'll kill you."

"Well, there are a lot of outlaws in the south."

Without any impression, Ai-Fa took her hand off Dial's shoulder.

"Stop, Larvis," Deal said in a voice that probably lacked restraint, crushing.

"I'm sorry about that one.... Asta, I'm sorry"

"Oh, no..."

"You too, I'm sorry.... I can't stand being told about my hair."

"Or what hair...?

"... I can't stretch like you because I have such dirty hair color. If it wasn't, I'm sure boys wouldn't go wrong dressed like this."

When he said so in a low voice, Dial bit his little lip and shut up.

Yumi stands up slowly, keeping her chest guarded, and walks over to Dial.

"- Isn't it something else dirty? It's a bit of a rare shade."

"Where! You look like a beast!

Dial sadly distorted his face and sneezed his hair.

It has brown hair in strange shades that is still dark and pale.

I thought it was like a dog or a cat, too.

However, I don't think it's a dirty color.

"Oh well. Well, because people's preferences are their own," Yumi put her hand on Dial's sniveling hair.

"But I didn't think it was a dirty color, so I just wanted to stretch it out for a long time. I'm sorry if that pissed you off."

Dial remained silent, and he got annoyed.

Then I see Yumi in the upper hand.

Yumi looked sincerely sorry.

"... you're not mad?

"Yeah. I was a little surprised, though."

"Ahhh.... Yours was soft and pleasant, wasn't it?

"Don't say that!," Yumi said, shaking Dial's head.

Dial laughs "haha" and escapes that hand.

"I'm sorry. I'm leaving today. I have to work from Jomtien.... Asta, can I come back tomorrow?

"Huh? Oh, yeah, sure."

"... thanks," Dial said, leaving with a fast leg.

The offering Larvis finally glimpses Ey-Fa and then follows him.

"You're a weird one!... Well, maybe not a bad one."

In a sigh of sigh, Yumi said so.

"Were you okay?" And when I asked him, for some reason, he looked red and hid his chest again, with frightened eyes.

"Don't worry, make it for me! I still have a job, too!

"Yeah? Yes, sorry..."

"Word on word!"

"Yes! I'm sorry!

Isn't this like a mida then?

Lara-Luu turns to him with a grin in his face, and Yumi snatches' Meermoo Grill 'out of my hand with an angry face.

"Damn, I came here today to tell you a serious story, and you totally drove me crazy.... Hey, Asta, you're selling food at The Great Tree Pavilion in the South and The Xuan Ong Pavilion, right?

"Yeah? So... right?

"You make that taste good for customers in the south and east, don't you? If I were to eat something from the people of the west, which one would you recommend?

"Yeah? Why are you asking me that?

"... isn't that what you're saying?

"Of course! Yes!"

Lara-Luu is shaking his shoulders and Yumi sighs another.

"Seems like there's been a recent increase in visitors from the West flowing into those two inns. Finally, my father decided to lift his heavy hips."

"Heavy hips... what do you mean?

"I don't know that yet. Maybe you're thinking of getting Asta to cook with caron or kimmus meat instead of giva meat."

Yumi's father, the master of an inn called "Westwind Pavilion," seems to be quite thorough in repelling the presence of the people and Giba by the woods.

However, Yumi and others analyzed that he had emigrated from other towns, not from the biological Genos, and that there was no clear reason or circumstance for his disgust, but had just been stained with the air that spread to the boarding town.

That means that Yumi herself has repelled the people by the woods with the same feeling as her father, and that was dissolved in this encounter with the stall, I guess.

"Um, but cooking without giva meat doesn't make sense. As I said before, I started this business to spread the delicacy of Giva rather than to make copper coins."

"Yeah, I know that! But that stubborn dad said to check on me to make sure Asta was good, didn't he? Previously, my mother and I were just mad at me for sneaking around here to buy the food! Isn't this amazing?

And, Yumi has turned a little desperate to face the inside of the stall.

"What's next, Asta's skill? So if you can convince your father that Asta is good and feed him Giva's cooking, maybe he can even turn his father's stone head into a piece of wood dust!... I mean, maybe I'm totally unsolicited?

"No! You're right about that. Yeah, well, I mean, it's kind of a lifetime for me, just to get you interested."

It would be a great step forward if we could wholesale Gibba's dishes in a lodge for the people of the west, run by the people of the west.

If possible, the first step was where I wanted to fulfill it in The Tail Pavilion of Kimmus, but I can't miss the good opportunity in front of me.

(Besides, I also found that the evidence from the case ten years ago didn't seem to matter. If Cycleus' eyes aren't for Milan-Math, think about it and talk to Kimmus's Tail Pavilion)

Thinking like that, I could honestly smile back at Yumi.

"Thank you. If Yumi's father was really interested in me, I'll try to make sure you know how delicious Giva is."

Yumi rounded her eyes properly.

Is it because of being crushed by iron plates from below? I feel that ivory cheeks are a little red.

"... what, you can talk normally?

"Oh, yeah, you are. When I calm down, I'm still a little bit conscious."

"... and you remembered my name?

"Yeah? That's about all I remember!

Nevertheless, there may not have been a single opportunity to call from here or elsewhere. That's not limited to Yumi, because almost none of us had a chance to call names, even against Balan's eunuchs or Aldas.

Yumi laughed "eh," then pulled herself back.

"I'm so glad..."

"Huh? What?

"It's nothing! So, if it's" The Great Tree Pavilion in the South "or" The Xuan Ong Pavilion, "which one would you recommend?

"Oh, yeah, well, I'm going to change the content of the dish a little bit from tomorrow, but I guess it's still easier to get familiar with the Southern Daiki Pavilion because I use a special spice called Chitti's fruit in The Xuanrong Pavilion.... By the way, have you ever eaten a dish made with tau oil?

"Yeah. That's jagal seasoning, isn't it? I know his name."

"Right. But it's not as special a seasoning as the chit fruit, so I guess it's easier to eat that way. Either way, I didn't decide to dedicate myself to the East or the South."

"Okay. Let's go to the Great Tree Pavilion in the South first! Yeah, I'm looking forward to it."

That said, Yumi giggled at me.

You look in a better mood than usual, above all.

And I'm also sincerely glad that you care so much about me as a people in the west.

"Thank you. I'll do my best not to waste the fringe Yumi connected me to."

"Yeah! Good luck! If I didn't think it was really good, I'd have to be honest with you."

"Right. I'm looking forward to your thoughts."

So Yumi left with a smile on her face.

Full of thought, I breathe.

Then I felt my gaze around my right cheek again.

Looking back, I knew Ai-Fa was silently flirting with me.

I asked him with my eyes if he was angry at me.

Weird, I was returned with my eyes.

This heart-to-heart, it may not be very fun.

If I had thought about that, a tall cloak figure approached me from the northern direction.

A guest of the people of the east.

But it's not Schmiral or Sanjula. He was also a bit unusual as a Sim, a long-lasting owner who seemed to be lightly over 190cm.

"Welcome. Are you sure you want one?

"No. Two, please"

Answering, the person snapped the hood behind him.

Intentionally exposing your face is still a rare trick outside of Schmiral and Sanjula.

"Asta, I, you know what I mean?

"Huh?"

"I, the Silver Kettle, Deputy Commander, am Radajid-Ghi-Nafashiar"

On my face, I don't recognize him at all. Dark-haired, black-eyed, Sim-like face.

However, I remember that one or so of the members of the Silver Pot was supposed to be this tall.

"Were you from Silver Pot? Are you alone today?

"Yes. I'm busy today. So everyone, each, buys, does."

That's how the radazid figure turned his gaze toward the 'Giba Burger' stall.

"Asta, Vina-Lou. Me, talk, there is."

Vina-Lou looks back slowly.

Radajid, in a low but often passing voice, said further.

"Commander Schmiral, sudden job, I'm in. Asta, Vina-Lu, I'm coming to see you, I'll be late."

I said, "Sudden work? inquired."

Radajid nods, "Yes," as he stares more at Vina-Lou.

"Street stalls, commerce, by the end, come, I said." Kimmus's Tail Pavilion, "I said, bound to head. Greetings, that's when."

"Really? After all, when it's also the last day of business, you're busy with a lot of things.... Is that it? But did Schmiral also know that Vina-Lou was coming down to town today?

"Yes. Schmiral, in the morning, it's Castle Town. But, compatriots, I told him. Schmiral, I know."

"Really?"

Speaking of which, even though Jomtien is close by already, I knew the Balan fathers wouldn't even try to show up.

The conversation with Yumi is also going to squeeze away the feeling I was dawning on.

"Schmiral, I will definitely come. I'll give you a snack."

That's what Radajid said, and he's got his gaze back on me.

"The Pot of Silver, ten people, greetings, will definitely come. We, Asta, meet, thank you."

"No, thank you so much for meeting all of you."

"Greetings, commerce, later"

In an emotionless voice, Radajid said so.

But those black eyes were just a little narrower, and I didn't feel like they were giving me the same happy light as Schmiral.
