My stay in the village was busier than I expected.

Because I am not in a noble mansion, it is not up to someone to take care of or arrange for me, and it is basically natural for me to do my own things.

Noah, Kazi, and the conductor were men, so the burden was not too great, but by the time they had finished all the necessary tasks such as engraving, preparing for tomorrow, and reconfiguring the route to the territorial capital, the sun had already fallen.

And now it's dinner time.

In front of you, on a mahogany wooden table, there are many more extravagant meals than you could imagine.

For soups made with wild vegetables and eggs.

Pie wrapped in river fish.

Whole grilled duck filled with herbs.

and so on.

Villagers rarely see dishes that only appear in festive seats.

It is brilliantly illuminated by the sparkling glass suspended from the ceiling.

The scrambled duck skin is candy-colored, reflected by the light from the ceiling, and the soup is aromatic (chewing) with the smelly hot air, which is annoying in fish pie.

The cream-coloured fabric that mimics the shape of the fish has fox burning eyes.

The surface is stacked with rounded lemon.

Boiled vegetables accompany the area.

In any case.

"... Dee-pie"

A pie the size of which is comparable to a few rounds of duck, naturally turning your eyes round.When the huge dishes that took up most of the table came from the kiln outside, I thought it was something.

I can feel the volume and simplicity that would appear in a man's world national animated film.

"This fish is an oscillus, isn't it?In the western part of the country, they say they can do it well. "

But big. There is a problem whether this can be eaten.

Four, including the conductor man.I wonder if I can eat one head.

As she gently laughs "ufufu", she is completely indifferent to the size of the pie.

"These aren't all eating monkeys, right?Leave at least half of it.

"When guests visit, they prepare a luxurious meal and let the younger children eat the rest.It will be common practice in any region. "

"Ah, that's what this is all about."

Both of you are good at explaining.

But even so, it is not hard to imagine that these are exciting.No matter how stable the food situation in this world is, it is unlikely that a few whole ducks and pie parcels will be served together.

After all, the maintenance and repair of the engravings seemed to have been quite appreciated by the villagers.

After that, many people thanked me every time I left.

For the first time in a long time, the Servants clapped their tongues at the sumptuous dinner.

Especially, the wrapped yakitori is exquisite, and the cheese between the fabric and the white body melts, making it delicious.The smell and aftertaste of the river fish do not persist once it is joined with the round-cut lemon.

While listening to the recipe from her mother, she proceeded to eat.

... if that's all, it was nothing special and peaceful.

"No, I'm sorry!Ah, can I have this pie, please?It's too delicious and my cheeks are about to fall off. "

…………

…………

…………

Before the three Arcs could say anything, he looked up and laughed at Gills.Next to the guide who struggles with stretching cheese, he now takes off his hat and shows his short brown hair.

He's in charge of dinner too.

The village chief also seems to have been accommodated by Giles with various supplies, and he is also thankful for the invitation.

Well, it's okay because I don't like it, but naturally, even in the dining room, he was overwhelmed by the strength of his acupuncture.

"... Mr. Arcs.I think it would be better to make strange acquaintances. "

"Hey, Noah, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.You know what? "

"Is that because of your mind?Or is Kazi-san aware that something is wrong with you?

"This..."

Kazi draws his mouth to the beautiful butler who makes a cool smile and turns to blame.

These interactions are familiar to me.Despite their opposite personality, these two are somehow communicating with each other in a careless way.Noah would not say such a thing unless she had forgiven herself, and Kazi shrugged her shoulders without the wind she cared so much about.

Anyway, if the other one says "strange",

It's so tough on that beautiful girl over there

"No, it's a compliment. It's a great pleasure."

"I say so. I think your brother is easier to catch up with.Huh? "

"Please don't. I try not to hang out with an obviously sexy guy.Kihihi "

Kazi responded to Gilds as he approached him.

After all, Kazi seems to think Gills is a mess.

Originally synonymous with the smell of sexiness, the smell of sexiness is far greater than that of a man.It's good to say that you can't see the bottom, but if it goes too far, you might be less alert.

Cuzzy with a slight vigilance behind his smile.Did you correctly read his intentions from such an attitude?

"Oh, even if I were to wipe it off.Ahhh, I don't know if you're the only best friend of Wye's. "

This is how your friends do things on their own.

"No, my best friend."

Well, I'm asking you to be my best friend.I was just talking about the engraving deal. "

"Listen...."

Is that how you connect it?

"What do you mean? Think about it, huh?

"I don't care if you say so."

Answer vaguely again, but Gills is still eating.

"Absolutely no loss.You're making a lot of money, aren't you?Huh? 'Cause it's on this street. "

I wonder if that's it?

"Ah no, it looks like it has a beautiful pattern.Looking forward to further development. "

"Hmm...."

Fu, I roar with my thoughts.

Gills would praise me, but I can't read my intentions.I'm glad to hear that you're good at it, but to receive that praise in nominal terms, a merchant is a person in a position of a little concern.

But is it light to stick it here?

In the first place, I don't know much about this man - especially about merchants.

Then you shouldn't ask.

"... how many sales channels do you have?I want to hear Giles' story. "

"Oh, can you hear me?Sapphireberg in the Northern Union. To the south are connections from Grand Shell to the Hanai Islands. "

"That's...."

It covers most chambers of commerce in countries with ties to the Kingdom.

Of course, that's not all of it, but I'm sure it's still pretty broad.

Noah exhales.

"That's amazing."

Ids_pjsc008_full

"But isn't there a proviso on that," if you're right "?

"I don't know. Sure you are."

Giles is like a willow passing through the wind, even if he suspects it.

However, if this story is true, it would be detrimental if we did not get involved.

Nothing, I'm not the only one selling it.With these relationships, you can buy everything from products to information.

... but, after all, traveling alone.Not knowing whether to stand behind you or not is a good reason to step on your feet.

Did Giles feel that way about us?

"I don't want to show this to a lot of people..."

That said, as proof as a merchant, I take the product out of the spine that I had prepared at my feet.

A lump of resin that shines like a jewel.

The fruit of a red and black plant that emits an iron odor.

A strange branch with colorful balls.

Noah and Kazi, who saw them, roared.

"This is... all precious stuff."

"Isn't this Tetsuko?Ho...... "

What Noah took over the handkerchief was a jewel-like piece of resin.

On the other hand, what Kazi sees is a precious plant that can only be harvested in the depths of the Cross Mountains.

When I asked both of you, it seemed that none of them were so easy to see.

It is said that there are some things that cannot be purchased, whether it is a large shop in King's City.

Noah whispers and adds, "This one is real..."

Does getting the ink make Gills feel better, or is it just a good face?It feels smelly.

And then...

Doya? We made a deal, didn't we?

"Hmm...."

Certainly, this will do us good as well.

The number of areas with connections and the rarity of the items handled.

Whether you make a deal or not, keeping a connection is an option.

The problem is, we still don't know who this man is.

That's enough reason to shake your neck sideways, but it's a story of whether the advantages of sticking it out here are balanced with the disadvantages of swallowing it with both scales.

On the other hand, Noah's face remained clear.

If you see Kazi, you will resume eating as if you had nothing to do with me.

I wonder if both of you are left to your husband's judgment.

Are you trusted or simply troublesome?Of course, if I ask you a question, you will answer me.

Anyway, as I tried to go further, there was a noise outside.

Soon, you can hear the sound of slapping the door more and more.

As she hurried to open the door, a young man from the village ran in full of breath.

I put my hands on the shelf and circled my back, exhaling rough breath for a while.

"Mm, village chief! Oh, my God!

"What's wrong?

"The gatekeeper saw the lights outside.That's a lot!

"... at a time like this?Leader or patrol?

"I don't know yet, but maybe it's a thief.I'm in a hurry to collect young people from the village. "

Naturally, I hear that noisy exchange.

"What? Oh, come on, you're really coming..."

"This is... the birth of the prophet Arcs Rayseft."

"Ah?

Noah and Kazi shouted in surprise.To those two, his eyes were triangulated and he roared.

Threatening the two Servants, Noah and Kazi turned their backs on each other.

On the other hand, he casually turned to Giles.

This is the same as before, and the smile stays the same.

In spite of this situation, it is.

"... I don't know.Mr. Arcs. "

"No, I wonder why Giles is so calm."

Well, I predicted it to some extent.

"You want the bandits to show up?No, I don't know yet. "

"Ten to eighty-nine, do it."

"Are you sure?

"Hmm? Of course not.The thief always searches for someone to steal and moves?It's natural to show up in places where there's no one you can take away from, and show up where you are.

"That's why you didn't move?

"Let me go. If you showed up near the mountain road recently, you might come to a nearby settlement. What should I do?

…………

That's true. The way Giles derives his answer is well understood.

But if that's true, why did he choose the "nearby village" to stay in?Merchants on safe journeys should avoid risky behavior as much as possible.We should never get near this place.

But Gills still had an unfamiliar smile.

What do you think?From the details, I can't see the meaning at all.

But now is not the time to think about such a thing.

"Noah, Kazi."

When I call them, they say, "Okay," and "Oh, my God," and start preparing immediately.

Noah prepared his weapon.

Kazi went out to see what was going on.

The mayor of the village who saw us move came with a bewildered voice.

"Ah, Master Arks?

"If you want, we'll fight."

"Well, that's...."

"It's okay. They're used to fighting.Ah, wait here for Bud. "

When instructed, the guide man nods and responds.

It will be difficult in the future if the conductor is killed, so we cannot send him to a dangerous place.

"No! I'm brave at that age.Looks like the monarch's trail. In parentheses, yeah?

"Giles fights too?

"Oh no, I'll fill myself up and let you hide somewhere."

What kind of intention is there to follow me like that?

Are you going to hide behind us?

Noah whispers in her ear.

(... I'll take a look, but be careful)

(... thank you very much)

While interacting with Noah like that, Kazi came out of the door.

And with a creepy smile as usual,

"After all, my husband Sama was a prophet, right?

Then worship me from now on.

"Kihihi, you're always taking care of Fu, right?

Kazi had a wand with an unusual handle at some point.

They brought it for a long journey, but I haven't used it before, but putting it out here means it's a weapon.

The village chief asks Kazi.

"What's going on?

"Oh, don't try to force me to break the south gate.The villagers are holding us in, but it's only a matter of time before they break us. "

"I see...."

The village chief shows a blue face.I don't suppose he has that kind of experience either.

I don't have the same experience, but I only have knowledge.

At times like this...

"The village chief... prepare to go out and fight and arrange a bonfire.And then go around the other houses and make sure you don't leave. "

"Ha, yes!

Bring Giles back with Noah to the scene.

A simple fence is already in front of the south gate, and there are armed village men.

And as Kazi said, the young people of the village were pushing through the gate.

"I won't keep it anymore!

The sound of gumming at the edge of the gate.

Are you hitting a log or something, a heavy shock sound every time you collide, and a tremor that echoes in your stomach.

Fine pieces of wood fly.

There was also a voice across the gate.

The old hammer is greatly distorted, stirring and screaming.

Not long before it's broken.

This momentum. The moment the gates are destroyed, the bandits will come at us.

Probably in the middle of a happy moment thinking about the aftermath of the attack.

Murder.

Plunder.

Abuse.

The only thing they can't predict is their own bad luck attacking a place like this.
