I was wondering if there would ever be a dawn, even that one night, when the time passed, would be right, and we would have another new day.

Both before and after I fell asleep, there was an eye-fa presence sitting in my head all the time, and I don't feel rested physically or mentally at all. Now, the feeling was like doing it and dawning - no, it was such a weird feeling that the passion without a place to go was running around the body.

I didn't do anything to solve it.

Objectively, one thing would make things seem like they haven't progressed.

But we know what it's like.

He wants to accompany the other person's presence.

I can't wait to do that, as long as we allow the situation.

(Well, i-fa was more of a man's gaze after all)

If I were a bunch of women, I'd like to be my daughter-in-law. Oh, my God, I really think that sounds like an eye-fa word.

And I find such an eye-fa to be limitless loving.

That's why the next morning I was in such a mood that I couldn't properly look back on Ai-Fa's face.

Since this one was in such a state, I don't even know what EY-FA looked like. We tried to bury ourselves in our daily routine, quietly and unchanged, moving forward with our morning work.

The world is moving regularly about what we think. We have to face our feelings as we live our daily lives.

Still, I had some questions I had to ask before I could separate myself from Ai-Fa.

"Speaking of which, is it okay to keep asking Yun-Sudra for a job like this?

Picking Pico's leaves at the edge of the woods, I asked.

Ai-Fa says quietly, keeping her back to me.

"If Sudra's parents want it, there's definitely not. I mean, there's no reason to get rid of Yun-Sudra, even though he didn't officially ask me to marry him."

"Right. If that's a woodland lesson, I'll have to follow it too... but are you sure?

"There's no good or bad. If Sudra's parents wish me to talk about dowry, I will return the answer as the head of Fa's house. There's no other way."

How are you going to return the answer? I wanted to ask.

But I didn't actually ask.

I told iFa how I feel, and I've already heard how iFa feels. On top of that, no matter what kind of answer Ai-Fa gave me, I had no choice but to equate my feelings.

That's how we were going to have another new day with all kinds of emotions.



So, it's business in the lodging town.

We are finally celebrating our thirteenth business day.

As for dates, from the twelfth to the twenty-first of the blue month. After the last ten days, we will finally travel to Doug.

Those ten days passed in a hurry, among other things.

It is a delightful story to have a thriving business, but somehow it felt like it was a strangely rare day compared to the usual.

It was before Jomtien on the first day of business that the first of its rare customers appeared.

"Hey, you're doing great, Asta"

Long cloak for travel, leather armor and cloth clothing. His benevolence, with a large body on a tough beard, was once the Zashma of the Guardian, whom we took great care of.

"Oh, Zashma. That's a lot of hissing. When did you get back to Genos?

"Two days ago. As a matter of fact, he was protecting Banaam's mission."

He had left for Banaam about two months ago as a Wellhide escort with that Camua-Josh after the uproar over Cycleus came to an end.

"After that, I was based in Banaam, and I earned my own copper coins. The Marquis of Banaam was looking for a mission escort, so I volunteered to see how Genos was doing with the crackles."

"You were. You look fine, too, above all."

"Oh. At least it wouldn't have been as hasty a day as you guys"

Zashma grins as she looks over at the guests packed into the stall.

"From what I've seen, there seems to be a lot more visitors from the people of the west than before. It was worth putting your life on the line and hitting on nobles."

"Yes, I wish I had a better relationship with the people of Genos in the wake of this.... Speaking of which, how is Camus doing? Did you hear from him or anything?

"No? I just left Banaam wondering if you'd even come out to Abouf for crackles, and there's no tone out. Well, if he's alive, he'll face Genos one of these days."

After saying that, Zashma did a little trick to invite me with her fingertips.

"By the way, I asked Lord Polearth if you guys were planning to travel to Doug?

"Oh, yes. We'd never seen anything called a living caron, so I thought I'd go spread the word."

"He looked up. It's a mind. If you're eating carons in the west, Doug's the best."

They say something fun, and they look even more like it.

"So I'm talking to you, and you're not going to hire me as a guide?

"A guide? But Zashma's an expert on rough stuff, right?

"I'll leave the rough stuff to the hunters by the woods. It's only a half-day journey from Genos, and there's no bunch of bandits rooting for the neighborhood. What did you do? It won't be like pulling a knife."

"Then it doesn't seem worth hiring Zashma."

"So I'm trying to get out of here buying a guide, not an escort. If you're an escort, you'll have to pay the proper price as a Guardian, but a guide won't hurt your nostalgia so much."

This Zashma, like Kamua-Josh, is an authentic "Guardian" recognized by the Kingdom of the West.

Unlike Moguri's Guardian, he never betrays his client, and he stands up for his arm. It was a reputation that only a very rich merchant or nobleman could hire such a regular "guardian".

"I do hear you're going to need a guide to get out to unfamiliar land, but... but why would you bother wishing for such a story from Zashma?

"That's because I was born Doug. If you don't get to work, you won't be able to travel to your hometown."

"Oh, was Zashma born in Doug?... Speaking of which, Melfried used to call himself 'Doug's Hahn' etc?

"Oh, you remember things pretty well. That's right, that was cheating on me."

Melfried called the Guardian under a pseudonym, and this Zashma called the head of the Chamber of Commerce. It is now an episode that I feel a lot nostalgic for.

"My house runs Karon's ranch, too. I left him and stood up, so my father wouldn't even talk to me yet. Mothers are very welcome."

"... that's kind of a smiling story"

When I said it, Zashma shrugged lightly, "Let it go."

"If that's the case, I accept. As for the guide, I left it to someone named Michel of Turan, so I'll talk to that person."

"Oh, do me a favor. I don't care what the price is."

With that said, Zashma walked away to South Street, not Castle Town.



It was only a few days after that next rare visit, still a little before Jomtien.

A fine box-shaped Totos car approaches from the direction of the castle town and stops at the town entrance. I thought it might be the visit of Polearth to the crackles, but it bears the family crest of the Marquis of Genos, not the Earl of Dalaim, from which emerged the noble Wellhide of Banaam.

"Thank you, Lord Asta, for a wonderful meal the other day. I never woke up my stubborn brethren."

He is an elegant, aristocratic young man with dark hair, ivory skin, and a little older than me.

It's more qualitative than it was at a feast, but it still wraps around crimson silk clothes and so on, and besides it's something that brings in a frivolous Kingsguard and so on, so it attracts more attention than Pol Earth. The people of the lodging town, still unfamiliar with the nobility, were to welcome this young nobleman with eye-catching sleeve drawers.

"I'm sorry I disturbed you in the middle of business. Actually, I need to fold it and talk to you, but won't you listen to me?

"Ha. If it's about your power..."

"I appreciate that. Now, I'd like you to step over there with your luggage."

I thought about it for a second. Even decided to ask Vina-Lou to accompany me.

With every request from the noblemen, he decided that it would be better if the people of the Luu family, the chieftaincy muscle, were also listened to.

"Consultation is about this."

In the car, two squire refrained. It is the giant cloth bags and crates that they have consecrated with humility.

The cloth bag had an unrecognizable dark gray powder, and the crate was packed with three white earthen bottles of two kinds at a time.

"This is Banaam's Fuwano, and this is Mammalia's liquor and vinegar as well. I'd like you to think of these effective uses for Lord Asta."

"Is it fuwano, fruit wine and vinegar? Wouldn't that be more effectively used by a Castle Town cook?

"As far as vinegar is concerned, it may be. But right now, in Genos, Poitan is becoming more mainstream than Fuwano, right? In Castle Town, that's not the case."

"Yeah, people in castle towns don't like inexpensive ingredients, so maybe they won't eat Poitan"

"But Lord Asta was able to make such a delicious dish by mixing that poitan with Fuwano. Then can we also find a new use for Fuwano in this banaam?

When I asked in detail because I couldn't grasp the sincerity of one thing at the moment, it was a story that even the Inn Town was a selling calculation when it came to Fuwano.

But as is well known, Poitan is becoming more mainstream in the Inn Town. I bought the fuwano from the banaam if I didn't have a lot of leverage, my legs would come out, so I was going to sell it in at a slightly higher rate than the normal fuwano, but this doesn't give me a prospect of selling it.

"Then there's nothing else to squeeze into the people of the castle town to sell, because neither the fuwano of Genos nor the fuwano of Banaam taste that different. Relying solely on rarity will not, at best, be able to sell more than the original prospects"

"I see...... but is that what you think it is? Is this the story that if you can't anticipate sales, the volume of buyouts will be reduced?

"No, Marquis Genos told me he wanted to trade in the quantity he had promised. There's the burden of driving my father to death ten years ago, so I guess I just had to offer to do that on unfavourable terms."

But that meant that this time the feelings on the Wellhide side would not subside.

He is a young man of serious and passionate nobility.

"Really? So what about this fruit liquor and vinegar? This one was only sold in Castle Town from the beginning, wasn't it?

"Yeah, this one's only after Fuwano. I was wondering if Lord Asta, who uses fruit liquor for cooking, could find a new use for this as well."

Speaking of which, Michele said there is no custom in Genos to regard alcohol as an ingredient. I also feel that Vulcus only used fruit liquor about to soften the meat. Could the only exception be that Timaro used liquor to flavor it with confectionery?

"Let me give you a taste"

I borrowed the earthen bottle of the crate to check its contents.

And I remember a few surprises. Even with the same Mammalian ingredients, the fruit liquor was shaded and flavored like white wine, and the vinegar tasted so close to wine vinegar.

"Oh, this one looks like it could be used for cooking soon"

Red and white wines would be enough to call that a different ingredient. Also, vinegar and other flavors made with Turan's Mammalia were like the middle of vinegar and balsamic, so this one might still be closer to ideal as a raw material such as mayonnaise.

"The Fuwano one, I'll take it back to the woods and do a lot of research.... However, we plan to leave Genos in a few days, so we may not be able to get a hold of it until then..."

"That's okay. This is the one who's saying it's impossible."

Only seriously, Wellhide agrees.

"And the other thing is, this is a completely different matter."

"Yes, what is it?

"Has Lord Leeheim not since troubled Lord Asta and others?

How serious the light floats in Wellhide's eyes.

"He has leopardized his attitude like that since he was coldly impressed by the woodland women, hasn't he? It's hard to forgive as a nobleman who can unite his people."

"Oh, is that the case? Yes, this one is fine. The Marquis of Genos must be trying to keep you from causing trouble with the people of the woods."

"I can't say anything about the rule of Genos, but if this was what happened to Banaam, I wouldn't have been able to keep my mouth shut either.... the feeling of disciplining oneself is more important than anything when one is born with a nobleman. It's never acceptable to think of someone in a different position."

With that said, Wellhide breathed a little sliced.

"Now, if you'll excuse me for this. I will prepare Lord Asta to pay the corresponding reward."

"Yes, we will do our best to meet your expectations"

That's how Vina-Lou with the crate called out, "Hey......" as Wellhide rode back in the Totos car to the northern direction.

"Maybe that's one of those aristocrats I was thinking of Raina...?

"Huh? How does Vina-Lou know that?

"Rudd and Raw-Ray looked like they were having fun talking... of course Rayna looked annoying..."

I'm sorry to hear that about Rayna-Lew, but I guess it's a well-known fact to keep. Regardless of Vina-Lou, keeping it in Donda-Lou's ear can be a hassle after that.

"And not just nobles, but that young cook who was showing his face sometimes..."

and so Vina-Lou shut his mouth perfectly.

Following that gaze, the person who hid the face in the hooded cape for the journey was approaching from the direction of the car's departure.

"Oh, could it be Roy?

"Hey, that's a hiccup"

Rumor has it, it was Roy, the young cook in Castle Town.

Since he had spoken of Mim's cooking about a month earlier, he had become invisible.

Roy, who had reunited for the first time in his hisa rash, felt like he was getting a lot tougher on his eyes than he had before.

"I wasn't out of tune at all, so I was a little worried. Were you feeling physically unwell?

"The body is nothing. This place has always been stuck in the cook of the house."

Discard it that way and compare me with Vina-Lou in my luggage.

"That was the Marquis Genos car, wasn't it? Did you even put up some new tricks again?

"No, this is banaam fuwano, fruit liquor and vinegar. They wanted me to devise a new use as an ingredient."

"Well, that's a good story for the economy."

Hiding his expression in the shadow of the hood, Roy proceeds to walk towards the stall.

When we unpacked and then we came back, Roy was receiving merchandise from Raina-Lou at the 'Giva Burger' stall.

Stand your teeth on 'Giva Burger' as you slack the place to your next guest.

Then Roy sighed deeply.

"Hey, this dish was made by the woodland ladies, not Asta, right?

Raina-Lou, who was even wearing a new 'Gibba Burger', looks back a lot.

"Yes, it was originally Asta's dish, but now we're the only ones making it"

"You guys didn't even know about the meat bleeding until a while ago, did you? So how did you get to cook such good food?

Roy, who used to have difficulty even sifting flat against Raina-Lou, is speaking normally today.

No, maybe Roy didn't even recognize that his opponent was Raina-Lou.

"No matter why we are asked, there is no answer… until we were impressed by Asta's cuisine and strongly hoped to make a delicious one ourselves"

"I don't think it would be hard to hope, though, would it?

"Yeah, but I don't think we're going to be able to accomplish that much if we don't move that into action in hopes"

Raina-Lou replied quietly as he handed the goods to the guests of the people of Jagal.

"... you were the Chef of Castle Town, weren't you?

"Oh? What's that?

"Then you wish to cook like that cook named Varcus, too?

Roy looks at Raina-Lou like he's stunned.

"Wait a minute. How do you know the name of Varcus?

"We, in the meantime -"

When Raina-Lou was about to answer, a customer of Sim's people offered him a copper coin.

So Vina-Lou, who along with Zwei had received the 'Myrmou Grill' stall, approaches it as if he could not see it.

"Raina... if you want to chat, can I take your place...? I guess it's time for Ama Min-Rutim to come and hey......"

Rayna-Lew nodded, "Yeah," only doing the job right in front of him, then leaving the stall with Roy.

Taking Vina-Lou's gaze, I leave the stall again, too.

"On the tenth day of the Blue Moon we kept Kamado with Vulcus in the city of Castle Down. You didn't hear anything, did you?"

In the miscellaneous woods away from the stalls, Rayna-Lew explained it that way.

I'll join you there and tell you more about Banaam's mission.

"I see. Outside the house. So such a delightful thing was happening? Unlike Timaro, there's no way that Vulcan can speak to me."

To mock himself, Roy discards.

Rayna-Lew stares at the side of it, which has been a lot of cheeks.

"Well, let me tell you again. Do you wish to cook dishes like Varcus?

"Is that Vulcan food? Right. If you care about the cook in Castle Town, you'll have to target him. There's no other cook who can freely use as many ingredients as he can."

Roy peeled off his hood and shaved his untreated brown hair.

"But... the best thing that ever seemed to me was Michelle's cooking at the Maiden Pavilion in White"

"Oh, you were talking about working in the same store as Michelle."

"That's right. That guy can't handle as many ingredients as Varcus." Maiden Pavilion in White "was a tiny shop compared to the restaurants that hired the Vulcas and Count Turan's mansion.... but I thought it would be best for him to cook."

"Is that why you've stopped showing up since you mouthed that dish of a daughter named Mime? You were shocked when I remembered the taste of Michelle's cooking that I thought I would never eat again."

Roy glanced at Rayna-Lew with a fiery eye.

Rayna-Lew stares back at it quietly.

"Then why don't we beg Michelle to teach us? Michelle says she's lost one arm, but she's giving her own daughter a cooking guide."

"What are you going to do with that? Michelle's moves could have been taken over by that little girl. I just got apprenticed... I can't be Michelle."

"You don't have to be Michele. It's just like I can't be Asta.... But without knowing Michelle's moves, can you cross Michelle?

Roy stands up like he's been beaten.

That and the relative expression of Raina-Lou was only quiet.

"It won't be long before that little girl named Mime might go out and sell her food at the stall. That way you'll be able to mouth Michelle's flavor again, too. … so I think what you get is one of your minds"

Roy does not answer, he is silent.

And I walked away silently.

Raina-Lou breathes softly as he drops off that back.

"I put an exit on my opponent without edge or itching. What the hell am I doing?

"No, I'm the one who's surprised. How did you know to say those words to Roy?

"Was that cook named Roy? We've lost our names. How long have we been in this pattern?"

Raina-Lou put his hand on his forehead with a thoughtful face.

"I wonder what it is. I've been worried about this for about the past month, so I kind of lost my temper.... have you overlaid yourself with the distressed appearance of that man named Roy"

"I don't know. I'm worried, I'm with you."

"In Asta and us, it's too different where we stand. Asta must be standing in the same spot as those mimes and Vulcas."

After saying so, Rayna-Lew grinned at the sieve.

"But since I visited Dareim too, my chest cleared a little. I'm sure that's because I found a job that I can do now. I'm in the process of creating a new dish with Sheila-Lou right now, so I'd like to ask Asta to taste it when it's done"

"Happy. I look forward to the day of completion."



The day after that, Jan also came to the crackle.

"I heard from Lord Polearth about the welcome feast. I hear Lord Asta was acclaimed for his mutual skill with Lord Varcus."

"Hey, that's overrated. I've just been reminded of my immaturity and the tremendous nature of Varcus."

"Still, about half of those present in the row seem to recognize Lord Asta as the supreme cook. I would never have said anything like that."

That said, Jan tightened her mouth tightly.

"I'm kind of in the mood as if I've gone back to being an apprentice cook. I want to feed on this sentiment and encourage it."

After Jan quit, Dial showed up a little.

"No, it was amazing after that, huh? Which dish was delicious was the feather of an extended conversation! I couldn't leave before the nobles, so I almost fell asleep at the end of the day."

"Oh well. That was tough.... So, how did you feel about Dial?

"Um, I hey, I wasn't sure which one was better... I don't really like vanilla that much. I guess if I liked which one, I'd overwhelmingly be Asta's!

"I'm glad to hear that. Thank you very much."

"Yeah!... but I thought they were both western dishes. I don't even use caron milk or cheese very often in Jagal. Might have been nice to use more tau oil or sugar or something."

After saying so, Dial closed his eyes inadvertently.

"The most delicious dish I've ever thought of was a dish called" Stewed Gibba's Horn "that I ate in that inn in town. If you can, I want to go eat that dish every day."

"I see. But you're forbidden to leave Castle Town at night, right?

Dial looked dissatisfied when he ripped off his offering Larvis' ear and asked her in a whisper.

"So you've already stayed in Genos for months and you've only spoken of it twice. I also had to go back before the sun went down, so I couldn't even taste it slowly!

"Right. But this is how you come to the stall when you find time, so I'm very happy, huh?

Deal lightly regained his mood and laughed "ehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe.

"But I still want to eat Asta's food at dinner. Always speak up when Asta is invited to Castle Town, right?

"No, I don't think you'll ever be invited to Castle Town in the future."

"What are you talking about! At least some of the noblemen who were at that feast would want to invite Asta to their house, right? Because the Marquis of Genos had to advise that Asta's life should not be disturbed."

That was an honorable story.

At the same time, it makes me appreciate Malstein's distraction.

"Anyway, it should take you a while. Especially, uh, what did you say? The princess of the Marquis de Genos - see, that lady called the companion of her first son."

"Oh, was it Eurifia?

"Yes! That euliphia! That lady is definitely gonna try to get Asta first. Neither the Marquis nor his first son seemed to hold the reins completely."

Did Mel Fried's wife like my food that much?

Well, I just hope we don't get on a bad edge.

"So you'll definitely talk to me then, too, right? I'll think of a way to get back to that dinner party!

That's what Dial said, smiling like an angel.



So, even the next day.

What a Sim astrologer Alishna appeared as the closing of a rare customer.

"Oh, that? Welcome."

I got upset because at first it didn't work out with Alishna.

She did not even take the samurai of Polearths or the escort, yet she appeared before me wearing an old leather cape for the journey.

"... was I, visiting, annoying?

"Yes, no, I didn't think it was you... what's up with that outfit?

"I thought it would catch my attention to my usual outfit, my old outfit, and I took it out."

Speaking of which, she should have lived a wandering raw with her family until she settled in this Genos.

That's how she wore herself in a travel costume bundle, all she could see was Sim's traveler everywhere. It's just a little small.

"Pole Earth, I'm busy. So I came alone."

Ahead of my doubts, Arishna explained that to me.

"Thank you for your time.... er, are you looking for street food?

"Yes, Asta's cooking, the feeling of wanting it, I couldn't even expose it"

With a completely indispensable faceless look, Arishna nods small.

Then he moved his hand inside the cloak, and Alishna looked at me quietly.

"... it's an emergency."

"Yes?"

"Copper coins, I forgot"

I got stuck in a response for a second.

With no expression, Arishna praises.

"I'm leaving. Please forgive me for visiting again."

"Hey, wait a minute! Are you going back to Castle Town to pick up the copper coins?

"No. Me, the ability to walk, I'm weak. Visit again today, it's difficult. Mindless, but next time, I'll wait."

"Then I'll replace it today. Next time you come to the store, please make a payment together"

Alishna's black eyes, quiet as a lake at night, stare back at me.

"Me, trust me, can I have it? We're still, edge, thin."

"Ha. But I wonder if you'll ever step down one or two red copper coins if you live in Castle Town."

That's how I answered, and I accidentally blew my mouth off.

"If you didn't show up within a month, let me also charge the Marquis of Genos. You were talking about a Marquis guest."

"... I trust, I want to respond, I strongly think"

Arishna combined her fingertips on a complex heel to profoundly uncle.

It's a surprisingly luxurious fingertip, coloured with a number of rings.

"So which dish would you like to serve? I have two kinds in my shop, two in the Lew's, and a special dish."

"Special cuisine"

"Yes, it's a special dedication that we only serve to customers who have pulled a hit with a scratch." Giva Cuttlesand "is very popular, isn't it?

Alishna shook her neck sideways as she loosened up.

"I'm an astrologer. own destiny, to try, to be unacceptable"

"Really?" I laugh again.

This girl has more difficulty reading emotions than her coarse Sims, and thus she looks stubborn and dignified. That, in this time, had become a factor in creating a smile.

"Which dish shall I cook, then? You can taste anything but this' giba-man ', so shall I serve you a wooden dish?

"No. Extra effort, I'm sorry. Your food, please."

"" Giba-Man, "right? Accepted."

I opened the wooden steam cage and let him take out the other 'Giba-Man'.

"It's hot, so be careful not to burn it. This dish will have two red copper coins."

"Later, I'll make sure, I'll pay"

Alishna nods one more time and offers her hand.

I handed 'Giba-Man' to that black, sneaky fingertip.

Alishna remained faceless and cheeked him up.

Those eyes look right at me.

"How about that? It's a dish that doesn't use vanilla, so isn't it missing?

"No, it's delicious. … very delicious"

"Really? Thank you."

But the expression doesn't work after all.

Alishna flaunted it as she supported the white 'Giba-Man' with both hands.

"At the inn, dishes made with vanilla that we've talked about before are offered for sale. If Polearths is no longer very busy, be sure to try it too."

"Yes. I enjoy it a lot and I do"

Alishna, who finished eating "Giba-Man," once again puts her fingertips together to thank her.

"Asta, we're leaving for Doug, soon?

"Yes, we are leaving on the 22nd of the Blue Moon"

"Really?... star reading, isn't that necessary?

"Right. We don't weigh a lot of fortune... so maybe it's rude to say this to an astrologer."

"No. I give star reading, hope and despair, equal. I don't rely on grumbling, I think you're right."

Saying so, Alishna moved her body in her cloak again.

From there, my left arm is offered to me.

"Asta, take this"

"Yes? What is it?

On its luxurious but long fingered hands was a small purple stone.

Beautiful stone about the size of a human thumb, shaped a bit like a sloped ball.

"Safe journey, grasping, it's a Rapista stone"

"Oh, no, I can't accept a gift like this -"

"Gifts, no. Journey, until it's over, just keep it."

In a low, clear voice, Arishna says so.

"The stone of Lapista, always in the presence of its owner, returns, they say. If you take this and embark on a journey, Asta, I will definitely return."

"Ha... I wonder if it's like a frog amulet"

Crushing in my mouth, I cruised a lot before I received the stone.

"Okay. When you get back from your journey, do you want me to give this back to Alishna? So, in exchange for the price of two red copper coins, let's say"

"Yes, I don't mind."

Alishna narrows her eyes in the shadow of her hood.

"Asta, I'm home, I'm waiting. Your journey will be a success."

"Thank you. How are you?"

"Yes."

That's how Arishna walked away again.

Maybe it was only to give this to her that she bothered to visit my stall?

I softly slip the Rapista stone into a cloth bag on my hips, remembering how filled I was.

There was a great deal of haste, but that's how ten business days passed peacefully.
