924 Mission of the King's Capital of the South ③ ~ Meeting ~

After that, we were taken to the castle town hall.

We're going to have a meeting with the Roblos in this room for the next few moments. After that, Kamadoku and the others were supposed to get to work on the cooking.

It was probably not until the day I was summoned by Fermes that I or I-Fa would visit the conference hall. It may be a different room than before, but it was a functional, decorative one, as it is in my memory.

And from here, Marquis Marquis Malstein will also be present. He was also in a position to accompany Turan if it was supposed to be, but he made Melfried take his place because he couldn't think of how the ancient wounds he sustained at Easter were going.

The other members are little different than just now. Just like the dinner party at Count Turan's, the horizontal table was arranged in the shape of a Co, with Marstein, Melfried, the diplomat, Lobros and Forta in the upper seat, on the right, in the placement of Alvach, Nanaquem, Torsto, Lifreia, Fermes and, on the left, Dari-Sauti, Giza-Lou, Ai-Fa, I,. The squire, Gemd, pulls behind the lurking drapes of the soldiers, and Chiffon-Cher, like the other maids, refrains from walling.

However, Polearth and Rimi-Lou had left the scene.

The clerk, a member of the mission, wanted to use this time to talk to the rest of the forest people, so Polearth was supposed to be there. By now there should have been a slightly more frank place for talks in a separate room in the conference hall than here.

And although it is Rimi-Lou - she has been asked by Robros to work on a special mission. The results are scheduled to be revealed around the end of the talks.

"Well, let me be the first to ask -"

And, after an opening address by Malstein, Dari-Sautti cut the fire that way.

"How was it that we were to be convened today? If you want to hear from us to discuss whether or not the people of the North should be moved to Jagal, then you still don't know… after the people of the North have decided to move, it seems that there is no reason to convene us."

"There are three reasons for that."

In a much-tempered tone, Robros responded that way.

"Firstly, the first is… because Chiffon-Cher, the samurai there, was first heard in this visit that she wanted to work in Genos even after transferring God. I heard that Asta in Fa's house is connected to Chiffon-Cher, so I want to ask her for her opinion."

My spine felt relaxed when such a heavy duty existed.

However, Refraiia across the street is smiling small as if she wanted to reassure me. You were the comfort of being told silently that you had to do as you always did.

"And the second one… because the nobles of Gerd there were in Genos, by any chance. He said that the people by the woods were very kind to all of Gerd's nobles, so he wanted to talk about it."

"Hmm. Haven't you even lifted the story of selling Jagal ingredients to Gerd when you visited Genos before?

"No. Such a story was certainly wanted by the Marquis Genos. But at that time, it wasn't a massive story."

That being said, Robros twinkled his blue-purple eyes strongly.

"I hear Gerd's mission wants to be able to buy out Jagal ingredients on a regular basis. With regard to this deal, it seems that the conversation has gone so far that we can no longer speak… we must decide whether it is okay to hand over the grace of Jagal to the territory of Sim, the hostile country, until then. To that end, I hope to hear about the people by the woods."

"I see. At best, I understand.... but all those stories seem to be decided after your arrival in Genos. But from the day before your arrival in Genos, we had been offered to go to the castle town. What was the reason for that?

"Uhm. That's the third reason"

Robros distracted his thick chest as he sat in his chair.

"That's because we watched a puppet play on this road."

"What? You just said it was a puppet show?

"Mm-hmm. In the territory we stopped by, the puppeteer's play called for such a reputation. We watched it, too, and we were very curious about the people by the woods."

They heard so many unexpected words that I was taken aback.

But speaking of which, Rico and the others traveled to Jagal to get Balan's boys to see how well the play was arranged. Then it was only a month and a little bit, so there was nothing strange about Rico and the others touring the territory of Jagal.

"Even when I visited Genos before, I was asked about the people by the woods. In doing so, I was not curious, but I thought it was not necessary to bother calling. But I watched that puppet play called" Kamadu Asta by the Forest "and was finally curious. It is therefore up to me to let the messenger who touched me tell him that I wish to meet with the people of the woods."

"I see. If so, I guess I should have called Donda-Lou or Dan-Rutim on this occasion"

Smile Seriously Dari-Sauti says, Roblos' gaze has been directed at me and Ai-Fa.

"It seems that only those two names appeared in that play. Well, the main character Asta from Fa's house is here, so I'm not dissatisfied with her."

I didn't even know what to answer, so I kept my head down for now. I = fa also salute him with a face that is sighing.

"It is also a shame for our colleagues that Asta of Fa's house was on edge with Chiffon-Cher. Not only does it satisfy my curiosity, but it also gives me a useful story about this one."

Roblos' gaze was fixed on me.

"It's Asta from Fa's house. As the puppet was told in his play, he was once known to the Count Turan family. I heard you were supposed to bond with Chiffon-Cher on the spot, but is there any difference?

"Yes. For the five days I was staying at Count Turan's house, Chiffon-Cher took good care of me personally all the time"

"But he was locked away on the spot. Would it be something that I owe it to because I've been intimated?

Exactly. I had trouble replying and let my gaze wander.

It was Refraia who took it.

"It's okay, Asta. As for the sins committed by me and my father, I suppose they will be made known to the rest of the world by puppet plays from now on. You don't have to adorn words."

That being said, Refraia smiled with an adult smile.

"You just have to tell me what you want. I'm sure that will lead Chiffon-Cher to the right path."

"... I understand. Now let me tell you something."

I was supposed to skip the thought a long time ago.

That was the White Moon last year, so it was a year and a half ago.

"Being separated from my dear family and compatriots, I ended up spending my days in strange mansions with terrible anxiety. All the more so because at that time the people by the woods were in a shitty relationship with the Count Turan family. In that...... for me, the presence of Chiffon-Cher was the only salvation. Her tender gestures of care and standing comfort me more than anything else."

"Hmm. Now, I'd like to talk to you about something specific."

"Is it specific? Right.... the first night I was brought to the Mansion, I tried to escape recklessly. Even then, Chiffon-Cher missed out on his actions. Chiffon-Cher was also on his watch, so he was in a position to be held accountable if he escaped... he told me he wanted me to behave the way he wanted because it didn't have to take anything."

That's how I made him say it, remembering Chiffon-Cher's soft smile that night.

"I failed to escape, and I pulled back amazingly...... Since then, I have been convinced that Chiffon-Cher is the person with the right heart, and I have had no reason to trust him. That feeling is still the same."

"I see.... Chiffon-Cher, I want to talk to you too"

"Yes......" Chiffon-Cher, who had refrained at the wall, advanced.

"Master Asta cared about me from the beginning... even when you tried to escape from the mansion, you showed me so much about me that I would be left behind... You called me at first to ask me if I should escape with you..."

"Yes, I was also poorly informed about the relationship between North and West at the time, so I was mistaken that if I ran away from the mansion, Chiffon-Cher would be free too"

"Asta had not yet been baptized by Western gods."

And, Malstein then plugged in the words.

If I were a clean western people, I guess it would be a small sin just to let Chiffon-Cher escape. I was afraid, I was going to bow my head to Malstein.

"That is how Asta tied my arm, stuffed my mouth, and tried to escape with strength... all because she had guided me... Asta's tenderness struck me in the chest..."

"I see," Robros repeated.

"But why did they think to help Asta until they committed such a danger? What if it was a return of interest to Count Turan's house?

"Interesting return...... no...... since that time I had frozen my heart so hard...... it did not even make me feel like resenting others...... also because it was the soldiers of the northern territories far from Genos who captured me and my brother and killed the rest of my family...... there was no reason to resent the Genos or Turan people..."

"But the two people of the North who, together with them, were to work in the mansion of Count Turan's house, were to return their souls without sin of any kind."

That was my first ear story, so it was not only me but also Ai-Fa and Dari-Sauti who were to be humbled.

But Chiffon-Cher doesn't look upset at all, and responds, "Yes..."

"I, too, have just heard the wind… I have heard that it was you, the brother of the lord at the time, who drove them to death… There was never a time when your lord or Lefreia waved a whip at me…"

"My brother," Alvach raised his voice heavily.

"Would that be the one, the great sinner, Silhouel?

"Yes… I was wondering if it was such a name… I have also been whipped by him several times…"

"Sir 'el, the great sinner, from the heart, he was evil."

Without moving his expression, Alvach was felt to have unleashed heavy anger.

Forta rocks the giant with a tingle, and Roblos looks back at Alvach with a sharp eye.

"No matter how we treat the people of the north, who are enslaved, in the kingdom of the west, there is no law to judge it. This is not the story of an exotic people we should shut our mouths to."

It was Roblos, who spoke that way, who made his harsh face look disgusted. At the same time that it wasn't a story to shut up about, it didn't exist as one of the reasons they felt comfortable about it.

"... then it's Chiffon-Cher. There's no such thing as hating Genos or Turan, is there?

When Roblos inquired, as he had regained his mind, Chiffon-Cher drooped his head, "Yes......"

"It will be Princess Lifreia's uncle who drove her compatriots to death. You can still swear your allegiance to Princess Lifreia by abandoning your past tenacity?

"I swear... being by my side Lefreia is what I want most..."

Robros took plenty of time between them and then said, "Well."

"If so, I wonder if they should remain the people of the North and serve Princess Lifreia"

The heel and a small tone sounded. Lifreia, who had a gentle expression until just now, floated her back with a blue face.

"(b) Sir Roblos, why do you say such a thing? You felt comfortable accepting our offer last night..."

"If Chiffon-Cher wants to live in Genos, that's not the kind of story we talk about. But that's a story in the premise that Chiffon-Cher doesn't transfer God."

With a strong voice, Robros said so.

"Whatever Chiffon-Cher, the people of the North, exchanges in the kingdom of the west, it is beyond our knowledge. But once the Son of the Southern God, everything will be our responsibility. Assuming that Chiffon-Cher has committed a great crime in Genos, we shall send a mission to apologize, just like your guests in Gerd."

"But you heard, didn't you? Chiffon-Cher has no desire to resent Genos or Count Turan's family."

"Only Chiffon-Cher himself knows the heart of Chiffon-Cher"

"But -!", Refraia finally stood up.

So Malstein gives a serene voice to "Princess Lifreia".

"As the head of the Count Turan family, he should be calm. Roughing up your voice like that doesn't give you the results you want. … It was also the one who brought up the matter of the maid of honour after the signing of the agreement to hand over the people of the North to Jagal. Never in a position to condemn Lord Roblos."

Refraia was to bite off her lips with a bright blue face.

I'm beating faster, too. Because the Refraiers were showing calm, one of the Chiffon-Cher cases left expectations on its own with what was going on in a good direction.

Eventually Lifreia breathed heavily before taking her seat in the original chair.

"I apologize for making you look so ugly.... Could this story just slow you down again?

"Uhm. Sooner or later, our departure will be after tomorrow. By then, I want you to stipulate the departure of Chiffon-Cher."

With a solemn face, Robros said so.

"It should be noted that if I may express my colleagues' opinions with old heart...... we have earlier been able to see how much love Chiffon-Cher and his brother Eleo-Cher are bound together. If you are one family at a time, perhaps you should seek happiness in the same land of Jagal without losing the edge of your blood."

Chiffon-Cher greeted him with silence.

And I look softly at Lefreia with my laying eyes.

Refraia had a tenacious face and still remained silent, gripping Chiffon-Cher's fingertips only for a moment.

So, what kind of mood was exchanged, Chiffon-Cher always goes down against the wall. After he saw it through, Robros raised his voice, "Well."

"Next up, then, is Gerd's case. You have set the stage to buy many southern graces, such as tau oil, sugar, hoboi, kel roots - and miso ingredients sold in the Cornelian territory."

"Hmm. Those ingredients, they are charming, they are immense. Periodically, I want to be able to buy, forgive, and wish."

As Alvach put it straightforward, the servant Roblos also clogged the word for a moment.

Poke that gap, and Fermes speaks.

"In the western capital of Kings, we are able to buy many ingredients for Mahydra through Sim's Chamber of Commerce. And of course, we hear that the Mahydra people have handed it over knowingly that it will be sold in the Kingdom of the West."

"Um. And the grace of the west, the merchant of Gigi, through, the mahydra, is sold. North and West, trade, impossible, therefore, since ancient times, Gigi merchants, intermediaries"

"Yes. So this time, Genos will act as an intermediary and sell southern grace to Gerd. As Lord Roblos said earlier, this cannot be an act against the laws of the kingdom."

Smiling loosely, Fermes overlaid the words. Is it such a thing as exercising my main command as a diplomat?

"Besides, the people of Gerd will also be in a position not to be involved in the eastern and southern protests. Whether the people of Gerd gain joy or strength by the grace of the South, that will not be to the detriment of Jagal. The people of the North and others are not even sick of the influx of northern grace into the King's Capital of the West, so is there not a further problem?

"Mahydra's, Jagal's, and Jagal's, exist in Mahydra. There is no reason why we should follow the Mahydra's way"

Robros said so in a resolute tone.

"Also, Gerd's notoriety is blowing on Jagal as well. If Gerd's bandits help, wouldn't that also be to the detriment of Selva and Mahydra?

"Gerd, Bandit, Much, We, Much Worried"

And, for the first time, Nanaqem also raised his voice.

"It is now a patrol, an intensification, and an insignificance of the borders. Bandits, extermination, we, are a grief"

"Yeah. Gerd's bandit notoriety was heard all the way to the King's Capital in the west. Be a great threat to travellers and neighboring residents, as the people of Ger excel in swordsmanship and the people of Doh excel in handling poison. And it seems that the people of Gerd, who are not bandits, have never had a chance to put their feet up in the exotic land, thus making all the bandit's notoriety stand out."

Fermes said it really well, and Malstein, Tolst and the diplomats, among others, were listening to it with interest. Even on this side, Dari-Sauti is eager to listen.

"But even though it is possible for the weather to capture one side of the truth, it will be difficult to encompass all of the truth. I am sure that the bandits of Gerd have the power to fear and are abominable, but it seems premature for the people of Gerd to break off with a vicious clan on one side of it. There are dozens or hundreds of bandits in Gerd at best, so that's just a very limited part of Gerd's reality."

"I don't know what you're trying to say."

"For example, in the western capital of the king, the people who live in the westernmost part of Jagal are called the unafraid, two-tongued people."

The words of Roblos were utterly natural, and Fermes said so.

Something feels so nostalgic. When we first met with Fermes, we were supposed to get our furious tongues up like this.

"When it comes to the people of the South, its candor is what is spoken of as a beauty. How is it that only those who live in the West of Jagal are slandered - Lord Roblos knows why?

"Not at all, it's inexplicable. Is it true that such a scent exists?

"Yes, that should be true not only in the King's Capital to the west, but also in a territory situated in the vicinity of the King's Capital. Even on my way from King's Landing to Genos, I had the chance to hear that every once in a while."

With a poor smile that doesn't kill bugs either, Fermes said so.

"The reason is really obvious. That is none other than because people living in the West of Jagal trade with both the King's Capital in the West and the Grand Duchy of Zerad"

"Is it the Grand Duchy of Zerado..." Robros looked bitter.

The Grand Duchy of Zerad is the name I hear sneaking around when I thus forget. I was only equipped with the knowledge that the Grand Duke, once excluded from the King's capital, could only set up an independent state - for as long as I could. The auditors' dregs and talons have become obnoxious that way, wondering if Genos is also an independent prospect, like Zerado, any day.

"The Grand Duchy of Zerad is present on the border between Selva and Jagal. The people living in the western tip of Jagal have an intimate relationship with Zerad, while also trading with the King's Capital in the west on the route of the West Dragon Sea. They sold their weapons to the King's Capital in the west, with steel that they could buy from the mines of Zerad, and the various graces available in the King's Capital in the west were sold to Zerad - and these kinds of actions have created the nickname of two tongues and so on."

"But it's..."

"Yes. Nor is it ever an act against the laws of the kingdom. Perhaps no man in Zerad despises the people of the South as two tongues, etc. Even if it is unwillingness for weapons to cross into the King's Capital in the west, they should weigh the wealth gained from the ore more than that. If the people of the south don't buy us ore, we won't be able to fight the king's capital."

At last, with a streamlined tongue, Fermes said so.

"Only in the King's Capital will the people of the South be so despised, it is still due to their closeness to Zerad. The Wang capital only deals by route, but Zerad and Jagal are literally close. Few of Zerad's famous generals and samurai contain Jagal blood. Therefore, the people of the king's capital will overlap their animosity and hatred for Zelad with Jagal as it were."

…………

"But we know how frank and backless temperament the people of the South are. I don't think people who live in the West of Jagal can say no to the false designation of two tongues."

"But -" he voiced was a forta withheld instead of Robros. Its green eyes have a swirling light of strong objection.

"Isn't that indicative of the fact that it is dangerous to have trade between hostile countries? As it is, there is a risk that Genos will also suffer unspeakable defamation."

"We do not fear such slander"

and Mulstein responded in a relaxed tone.

"Besides, the King's Capital and Zelad are actually patterns between the blades, which is why the people of Jagal who stood in the meantime will also be slandered. Gerd will be in a position not to be involved in the war with Jagal, so I guess it won't get us into the sort of thing we're slandered for."

"It would also be a side of the truth"

Robros corrects his posture and speaks that way.

"I also understood the words of Lord Fermes that we should not speak of all of Gerd in the notoriety of the bandits. Of course, with us, we're not going to treat Gerd's nobles and bandits in the same line. … so we want to make sure that your hearts are clear."

That's how Roblos turned to us.

"I would also like to ask the people of the woods for their opinions without objection.... The guests of Gerd once attended the feast of Lew's house and were invited to dinner at Fa's house?

"Hmm. We were to invite the nobles of Gerd to the wedding of Vina Luu-Lilin, who was the eldest sister of the Luu main house. The wedding was supposed to be celebrated by the blood clan, so I was initially baffled... but I think many of the blood clans had the impression that the nobles of Gerd were honest personalities"

Not to be discouraged, Giza-Lou replied as such.

"In the first place, we have heard that the nobles of Gerd visited Genos with heartache for the crimes committed by the" Hurricane Party "murderer. Sure those murderers seem to have been born of Gerd, but I think it's just lame to say that your former compatriots have sinned and come out so far into the land"

"Isn't that just an act of compassion for the relationship between east and west?

"Even so, the nobles of Gerd came to Genos with a small effort. Also about the apology to the people by the woods - although it was a long way from what we did, I think it was full of honesty"

Giza-Lou told me that, and my chest warmed up to me.

If I thought so, Roblos' glance would stick at me this way.

"Then what about the people of Fa's house?

"Mm-hmm. In Ziza-Lou's words, I have no objection"

As the head of Fa, Ai-Fa answered solemnly.

"I just think...... Gerd's people are a family of hunters and I think there are a lot of similar parts to the people by the woods. So I guess there's an easy side to understanding."

"The people of the woods were once sons of the Southern gods."

And Roblos said something dissatisfied.

"But they are the people of the east, even on the outside. You mean not only the exterior, but even the contents are peopled by the East?

"That would be crucial, regardless of east or south, to the point of being a family of hunters. If there's a family of hunters in Jagal, it might be easier to understand with us."

It was Dari-Sauti who answered as such.

"Those named Zida to Barsha, who once lived as hunters in a land called Masala, were also to be welcomed as family after deepening ties with the Luu blood family. Masala is a western territory, so I guess it still doesn't matter which kingdom it was born in"

"Uhm. We have many friends, both east and south. It is the people of the south who have rebuilt the houses and sacrificial halls of Fa, which were crumbled by earthquakes, and who have invited them again and again to dinner and feasts."

In a calm voice, Ai-Fa also supplemented it that way.

Where Roblos goes "uhm," the door of the room is knocked from the outside. When Malstein gave his acknowledgement, both Rimi-Lou and Joo-Run came into the room with their lowest surnames.

"Thank you for waiting -! It's a giva dish and treat!

Limi-Lew's frantic voice crushed the air that was getting a lot heavier. Rimi-Lou followed Roblos' words, "Let me confirm its strength," and was to have a snack of the day.

The dishes and confectionery are placed on the wagon and will be fed by the hands of the surnames.

Robros smiled Rimi-Lou with a sharp glance.

"It's Rimi-Lou. As promised, these were better handled by themselves, right?

"Yes! It was a little rough, but I made it by myself -! Right, Joo-Run?

"Yes, I'm the one who gave you a hand."

How dare Joo-Lan serve as Limi-Lu's cooking assistant this time. Limi-Lu alone had a hard time carrying an iron pot, so Joo-Lan himself had volunteered.

"I also learned to work in Kamadu at the Westwind Pavilion, so if it's about fire, it will serve. Wouldn't it be easier for Rimi-Lou to get help from a stranger in Castle Town?

When Jou-Ran said so, Roblos gave his consent to forgiveness. Rather, as much as I looked more complicated in Ai-Fa and Giza-Lou.

Either way, Limi-Lew's powers were to be arranged on the table.

Snacks include cream stew with plenty of giva meat and baked potatoes, while confectionery is a royal road chutch cake. A puffy translucent chutch cake is hung with a sugar melted caramel sauce and tau bean mushrooms.

"It was this dish that Asta invented for the people of Mahdra that resembled Kurimuchi! I think it tasted very different because the ingredients I could use at that time were different!

Limi-Lew seemed to get extra powerful because of the language he couldn't be.

Roblos, who rubbed his cream stew with a difficult face, originally opens his big eyes with excitement.

"Are you suggesting that you made this... by yourself?

"Yes! I got a little help from Joo-Run, too!

"I was just carrying ingredients, iron pots, or on fire. I was totally impressed with Limi-Lew's handiwork because it was so brilliant."

With a slight smile, Joo-Run said so.

"It was really amazing how handy it was to cut vegetables. All of a sudden, 'Oops!' Or screaming, 'so I was surprised."

"Eh heh. When it gets too late, we'll all be hungry, so I just tried so hard."

Rimi-Lou was answering like that, laughing a little embarrassed.

The Limi-Luu and Joo-Run combinations are quite a smile, though they are different colors. - But I = fa look at both names with a face that seems to have made his lips snap a little. Sometimes, he's a parent who reveals a lovely appetite for exclusivity.

Whatever it was, Rimi-Lou's cream stew was a brilliant feat. The standard ingredients were Aria, Nennon, Chatch, and Remilom and Mushroom Modki when broccoli, and the result is a Keren flavorless finish. As for the cream stew, it was Rimi-Lou, a skilled man who couldn't beat Raina-Lou either.

After a while, the voice with the bottom "oops" echoed.

The Lord of Voices is Forta. He was about to tease the cream stew and grab a chutch cake as soon as possible.

"How dare you... what kind of ingredient is this made of?

"That's using chatch powder! Asta taught me how to make it!

"This is the chatch......? It's a tau bean hanging from the top, isn't it?

"Yes! I fried the tau beans and rinsed them, it's kikoko! I'm using Sosu to tease you today, but even if I put sugar together by the way, it's so delicious!... Ah, it's delicious!

"I see... on tau beans, such use..."

"Tau beans, great ingredient. We want to buy it, we want it."

When Alvach raised his voice, Forta snapped at you in a fighting-dog-like shape.

but compared to the first time I looked at him in Turan, I can't even feel the fierce fighting spirit or anything. Alvach's side was also truly calm.

"We, the heart, would have been ascertained? Good reply, I wish."

Roblos, who had a good taste of cream stew, twisted Alvach with a strong eye.

but faster than it opens its mouth, it turns back towards me.

"... it's Asta from Fa's house. As for tonight's dinner party, it's better to prepare for it, isn't it?

"Yes. The partitioner is Raina-Lou, myself and the Lou family, isn't he? I plan to bring you some dishes with plenty of Jagal ingredients"

"Then I'd like you to add some of Gerd's ingredients to it"

I said, "Huh?" I was to round my eyes.

Robros overlaps words with no questions asked.

"I would also like to make sure what ingredients the nobles of Gerd have brought in order to obtain the grace of the South. Whether it's hassle or not, I'd like to say hello"

If an exotic nobleman wanted me to do that, I couldn't say no either.

Besides, this deal is important to me. At the same time as wishing the Arvakhs joy, I had no choice but to do all I could to deal with ingredients that could be delivered from Gerd and Jagal in the future.

(Besides, I wonder what will happen to one of the Chiffon-Cher cases...... I wonder why it is unacceptable for Chiffon-Cher to work in Genos as a people of the South)

Troubled like that, I snuck up on the Refraiers.

Refraia is rinsing the cream stew with her face. At first glance, it seems to have completely regained its calm - but its colourful eyes glowed more brightly than ever before and did not seem to hold back an unwanted destiny that stood at present.

"... and of course, it's Lord Marquis Marquis Malstein who's gonna set up this evening's dinner party, isn't it?

Suddenly he was pointed at the spear, and Malstein smiled, "Yes."

"It's a very inner dinner party, but I'd like to welcome the mission people in a whisper"

"Then I would like to invite you and the people of Gerd and the woodland."

The servant, Malstein, was also to open his eyes to "ho".

"Sims from hostile countries and people from the woods who are just civilians for a welcoming dinner party?

"Hmm. After this, will the nobles of Gerd and the people of the woods leave? But in this short time alone, it was difficult to determine the roots of Gerd's nobles, nor to satisfy his curiosity about the people by the woods. I'm afraid it's a sudden offer, but I'd like you to accept it somehow."

Malstein smiled loosely and looked around at the designated people. That includes me, of course.

"As for Lord Robros's only wish, I have no choice but to accept the invitation… it will depend on our hearts and minds"

"I, Reason to Reject, Don't Exist"

At no time, Alvach replied.

Ziza-Lou, after conceiving for a few seconds or so, replies "I understand".

"But besides the five people on this scene, may I add about three?

"Hmm. What would the three of us look like?

"It will be my sister Raina, who along with Asta is tasked with partitioning Kamado's work, and Rutim's parent, Gazran-Rutim, and my predecessor, Dan-Rutim"

"Hmm," Robros glanced.

"Dan-Rutim is a magnificent figure in a puppet play, isn't he? Hath he also come to this place?

"Mm-hmm. Now with the ladies, I'm holding them back in a separate room"

"Well," Robros said, putting his weight on the back of the chair.

"Eight people seems like a lot of people... well, okay. This is the one who made the sudden offer."

That's how we were suddenly forced to attend a dinner party in Castle Town.

But it's a great opportunity for me. It wasn't too sneaky to say goodbye to the Refraiers like this, and besides - I couldn't help but be sure of the truth about Roblos, who could say those words to Chiffon-Cher.
