The 7th day of the White Moon, the day after the joint study group that invited the faces of "Silver Star Hall" to the forest side.

Originally, that day was a holiday, but we dared to do business at the stall to recover what we had done on the previous holiday. In the meantime, I planned to open the stall for 10 days and assemble the business schedule until the farewell party of the architect while taking into account the fatigue of the remaining stalls.

(Well, this member seems to be able to get over it with a fine face, even if it's 10 days or half a month, but even if it's a month of business in a row)

Still, I am a member of various clans, and the Ruu family rents out the women of the family, so it is not permissible to imitate them too lightly. Even if I was to take a break from the stalls, I wanted to aim for flexible responses without being forced to do so because it would be impossible to deepen the interaction by inviting the architect to dinner.

"However, since the architects have arrived late, it seems that the date of the departure of the [Silver Pot] will be very close." Then it seems like we'll have another day off from the stalls in the middle of the month... so I don't think it would be a mistake to try not to rest until then. ”

Yun-Sudra, the person in charge of the adjacent stall, spoke up like that today. I taught Fei-Beim how to make balls, and he watched his tricks and said, "Yes."

"Including that, I think we should discuss it with Reina = Lou and the others."...... However, the Luu family doesn't have anyone at work every day in the first place, so even if they don't have a holiday, it doesn't seem to be that burdensome. "

"Oh, if you ask me, yes." Asta, Tur-Din, and I are the only ones who have been at work for days... and Malfira-Naham and Rey-Matua. ”

"Yeah. So, I guess it's up to me and Tuul-Din to discuss it." Yun-Sudra and the others can be given as much as they want to give them a break. "

I-I don't need to take a break either!

And then Yun-Sudra said with a momentum, and she was embarrassed.

"... but it's ridiculous to insist that we don't want to take a break even though we're all allowed to go to work every day." Then I'm sorry for the others who can only go to work once every few days. ”

It was Yun-Sudra who demonstrated the goodness he possessed today.

When I tried to give you a comment, it suddenly echoed.

"You! What the hell are you thinking!"

Yun-Sudra and I were surprised and looked back at you.

On the other side of the street, opposite the Yun-Sudra stall, is the "Kimusu Bone Ramen" stall. Yumi, who charged at you from the back, was just grasping Levi's chest.

"What, what, all of a sudden?" We're in business, aren't we? "

When Levi returned his confused words, Yumi finally raised her eyebrows.

"I've been out of the stall business!" Until today, I didn't even know it was such a ridiculous commotion! Basically, if you were stronger...! "

"The Lady of the [Xifeng Pavilion]," said Lars, Levi's father.

"If you raise your big voice like that, you'll wonder what happened to the guards." I don't want to bother the innkeeper, so can you give me a break now? "

With the same momentum, Yumi turned towards Lars.

However, Lars' soft smile seemed to calm down somewhat, and Yumi said in a lowered voice.

"Levi's father, you know exactly what's going on, don't you?" So you didn't think to do something about this son of Bonkraut? "

"Yeah... you can't just shut your mouth." What matters is how we feel. "

Yumi turned her gaze toward Levi without any complacency at all.

"My father is right." That's why you should do it.... how the hell are you going to get rid of me? "

"I can't do this anymore." In the first place, it's none of my business. You're irrelevant, so don't make funny noise. "

"This...!" Yumi seemed furious again, so I rushed to my mouth.

"Yumi, what's going on?" Did Levi do anything wrong? I don't think that's possible. "

"So, you didn't even let Asta know?" That's it! You're hopeless! "

Yumi trampled on the ground like a child. Looking at it, Levi looked like he had smashed the bitter insect, and Lars smiled a little bit bitterly.

"The story of my son-in-law came to Terrier = Mas!" And yet, this bonkraut doesn't do anything! There's no such ridiculous story! "

◇

After that, Yumi was greeted by Yun-Sudra and went back to her stall.

Even if Yumi is gone, Levi's appearance will not change, and he is holding his mouth shut with a dizzy face. I was very discouraged, but as a person who was interacting with Levi, Yumi, and Terrier = Mas, I couldn't help but speak out.

"Um, Levi... is that true?" I've never heard of it before... "

"That's not the kind of story that touches everywhere." There's something wrong with Yumi. "

"Yes, but because Yumi is a friend of Terrier = Mas..."

"If so, I'd better get in touch with Terrier = Mas." Why are you yelling at me for nothing? "

Levi, who is always attractive, has become like an unchaste child.

But I couldn't back off here either.

"No, Levi's relationship with Yumi is longer than Terrier = Mas." Then I think Yumi's worried about Levi. "

"Why would he have to worry about me?" I don't know what to say to Asta. Since the story of the son-in-law has been lifted to Terrier-Mass, it has nothing to do with me. "

When I was told like that, I didn't say anything either. Although it should no longer be an unmistakable story that Terrier-Mass is in love with Levi, it was still a mystery how Levi felt about Terrier-Mass.

When I was worried, my partner Faye-Beam whispered "Asta".

"That Levi over there looks terribly disturbed." Even if we repeat the words here, isn't it just a repetition of the previous one? "

"Yes, but I can't leave you alone, can I?"

"If so... shouldn't we talk to Terrier = Mas or Yumi instead of Levi?"

That was quite an unexpected offer. Faye-Behm was quite a hard man as a people near the forest, and he seemed reluctant to enter into the stories of the rest of the house.

But Faye-Behm's words seemed to make sense. Anyway, I have no idea what's going on. Even if I questioned the Levite here, it seemed that I could not see the truth.

(Even I don't want to make a fuss about Alien Love... but you can't just leave me like this. Let's talk to Yumi first when the business is over)

After that, there will be no disturbance, and the balls will be sold out a quarter of an hour before the end of working hours.

So, to help the Azure Sky Cafeteria, I turned to it -- the faces of the [Silver Pot], where I was able to purchase the ball grill, were waiting for me, and the leader of the group, Radajid, called out to me.

"Asta, thank you for your hard work.... Asta, do you have any concerns? I've been thinking about your dark expression."

"I apologize for the worry caused. I'm having a little trouble with my friends... oh, no, I think there's been a struggle."

"Struggle.... can you help me?"

I was about to spill my tears at the kindness of Radajid, who immediately threw such words at me.

However, Radajid was in an irrelevant position, and I didn't feel comfortable talking to customers like that during business hours, so I just wanted to thank him and leave the scene - so Faye-Baim whispered to me again.

"There must be a lot of difference in the son-in-law's stories between the forestside and the town. Wouldn't it be futile to talk to the people of the town?”

Now it's time for me to be surprised.

Um, did Fei-Beim have a great deal of interaction with Levi and Terrier-Mass?

"No. Of course, I am committed to forming a correct bond with the people of the camp town, but since I am originally a paranoid person, I don't feel like it."

Faye-Baim said that while giving a stern expression to her square face, which resembled her father's and a bit like a flat crab.

"But does Asta have a deep interaction with those people? I have a lot of work to do in the cafeteria, so please do your best for your friends.”

"Hah, I see.... would you listen to me for a moment, then?"

When I called out to her like that, Radazid gladly made her eyes shine.

Although Radajid's kindness only burns in his chest - the love view of the people of the East is completely unknown, and it was difficult to dispel the suspicion that he might be mistaken for a consultant.

However, it was the ship that rode us here. I sat down on the tables of the Radajids and spoke out in a faint voice.

"Um... the struggle is about the son-in-law being approached by a woman's friend."

Yes.

“That woman's friend seems to be worried about another friend, a man. But I don't know what men think.”

Yes.

"So, the man insists that it's none of his business... but a mutual friend who heard about it just yelled at me with an awesome swordscreen." If you had been so sure, you wouldn't have made such a fuss. "

Yes.

"However, I still don't know if something is going on." But... when I met my female friend yesterday, she looked a lot less energetic. "

Yesterday, before holding a joint study meeting with the faces of [Silver Star Hall], when I went to return the stall, Terrier = Mass was quiet and there were not many talkers. On the other hand, Levi said, "It looks like there's a lot going on."

"That's why I think our mutual friends were so angry because they were worried that their female friends weren't doing well... sorry." I don't know the whole story yet. ”

"Yes, but I understand the situation. Asta, heartbreaking, of course.”

Radajid said that in a calm voice.

“First of all, we need to check the facts. 1. Friends of women, why are you not well? II. How do you feel about your male and female friends? I think those two points are important."

"Yes," interrupted one of the youngest members in the [Silver Pot]. He was listening to us on the same table.

"Do you understand the feelings of this man and woman? If you think so, it's untrue. Even if you don't have any love, feelings, or feelings for yourself, you need a woman. It's irrelevant, insistent, untrue.”

"That's you, imagination. It is untruthful to imagine, to look down on others.”

As Radajid mumbled, the young regiment mumbled disgruntledly. Because he is young, he seems to be more prone to emotions than other people in the east.

So, Asta, are you all three friends?

"Yes, all three of us are friends."

"If so, it will hurt your heart, your heart, even more. First of all, I think we should listen to our angry friends.”

"Yes, that's what I was thinking."... thank you. It would be very reassuring if Radajid could help us. ”

“No, Asta, I hope it will clear up.”

I thanked Radazid so much and decided to go back to work in the cafeteria.

Then Faye-Behm approached suddenly.

Asta, how was it?

"Ah, yes. In the meantime, I think we should talk to Yumi. It would be too hard to talk to Teria = Mas herself....."

"Really?... would you allow me to accompany you?"

"Huh? Why?"

"... the house of Baim has long evaded the people of the town. In order to deepen our bond with the people of the town, we first want to understand their personality and customs.”

It was such a stubborn gesture as Fei-Beim's, but on the other hand, it didn't seem like a foolish request.

(But I guess Faye-Behm is also in the middle of wondering if she's going to marry Mora-Naham. I don't know if this is going to help Faye-Behm... but if he wants to do that, he can come with me.)

Therefore, it was the end time of the second minute down, and the customers of the Blue Sky Cafeteria returned without leaving. After that, I decided to aim for Yumi.

However, it would be annoying for such a large group to press on, and study groups are also prohibited around the forest. There should be a minimum number of people here.

As a result, the remaining members met up with me, Fei-Baim, Yun-Sudra, Rey-Matua, Lili-Lavitz, and Ratz. Recently, 18 people, which is the capacity of three wagons, were going down to the camp town, so they had no choice but to ask the whole person to stay for one wagon.

"I was actually planning to summarize the study meeting yesterday, but I'm sorry." I'll make sure we meet as soon as possible. "

"No, please do your best for Theria-Mass."...... With Tour-din and Malfira-Naham present, we can have a meaningful time. ”

Reina-Ru, who was the partitionist of the Luu family today, said so with a smile. Even Reina-Lou, who has a great passion for the study group, still doesn't think of Terrier-Mass as a second place.

So while we were sneaking around, Levi left quickly. And it shall be the behavior of the Levites: He seemed out of his ordinary mind.

Gilles' wagon was entrusted to Marfila-Naham, and I asked him to keep it in the [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion]. That's how we stormed into Yumi, who works in the inn's stall village.

"Ah, everyone from around the forest, welcome. It's been a while since you've all been here.”

And my friend Luia, who works with Yumi, greeted me with a smile.

Yumi has been following us with indignation.

"That's a lot of people." You came to me first about Levi's side? "

"That's not true." I don't know what's going on, so I need to talk to Yumi. "

When I answered in that way, Yumi suddenly got upset.

"I'm sorry, I hit Asta eight times." There's no way Asta would do that. "

That's right. That's why you can't get a wife in the woods.

When Luia teased with a demonic smile, Yumi gave a red face and said, "No more!" He pulled that shoulder.

But what's the situation? Didn't he just explain it to you?

"Well, the rough thing is." But I don't know who wants to be Terrier-Mass, and I don't know how Terrier-Mass feels. "

"Well then, why don't you talk to Yumi?" I'm all right with the stalls. "

The faces of stall villages often open shops faster and close late than we do. But just beyond the second moment of descent, the foot of the passenger was sparse.

We spoil Luia's kindness and stretch our legs out into the bush at the back. Yumi, leaning against the right tree, has once again looked around at us.

"Even so, what an unexpected look. Isn't it just Yun-Sudra and Rey-Matua to get along with Teria-Mas at best?"

"I have also somewhat deepened my relationship with you." Of course, it's not as much as Yun-Sudra and the others. "

And the women of the Lats answered them. He's older than me and he's a good man. Speaking of which, among the members of the stall with a large number of young people, there were the eldest Lili-Lavitz, followed by Fei-Baim and Ratz.

I have certainly not established a relationship between the one who is called Teriah-Mas and the one who is called Levi. However, as a group of women from the forestside who go down to the station town, I hope they understand the personality and customs of the people in the town correctly. "

Lili-Lavitz said almost the same thing as Fei-Beim earlier, smiling like Jizo-san. Since she takes turns with the young ladies of Ravitz, she only goes down to the station town once every ten days, but --- she had the initiative to stay in such cases.

"Hmm, I see.... well, maybe I should ask for the opinions of various people." What's the matter, I'm going to feel terrier = mass. "

While saying that, Yumi suddenly followed me.

"In particular, I'm curious about what the man Asta thinks." I won't yell anymore, so please be honest. "

"Because falsehood is a sin, I intend to do so....... I'd like to check first, but is the son-in-law's story still in progress?"

"That's right, that's why it's so troublesome." In this case, I might be able to give a wedding to someone I don't like.

Yumi then began to speak.

It happened three days ago, the day we attended Princess Dellshare's dinner party. Around noon that day, the owner of the liquor store came to Milan-Mass with a son-in-law story.

"It looks like my second son is worried about your daughter." Look, he's also interrupting our inn with a little liquor delivery, right? It seems that your daughter's kind personality has completely robbed me of my heart. "

It seems that the owner of the liquor store said so. Well, it's just a legend.

"My kid's only serious, but he's an unbearable bastard." But he's a hard worker anyway. Besides, since you're still young, you won't have any trouble remembering your job at the inn. If you don't mind, can you think of a son-in-law? "

It seems that Milan-Mass told the story directly to Terrier-Mass.

Of course, Terrier-Mass, who was worried about Levi, tried to say no immediately, but it was said that Levi, who was listening together, was too indifferent, so he was very shocked.

"So Terrier = Mas is also the only daughter, so you need a son-in-law to succeed the inn, right?" If Levi didn't want to do that, he'd have to pick up another person as his son-in-law... that's how he thought about it. "

"I see. Yumi found out about it today, didn't she?"

"Yeah. I'm sure I can see the fuss, so I couldn't tell you." But after three days, you can't hold it by yourself anymore. I ran into Luia in the well in the morning and told her that I had half-heartedly confessed to her. "

So, you were the one who talked to me earlier, right?

And Lili-Ravitz suddenly entered the conversation.

"If that's the case, shouldn't we ask him to talk to us?"

"Luia and Terrier-Mass got along quite well, but I'm more friendly!" Besides, I'm Luia's elder sister! "

Arrogantly combining his arms, Yumi said so.

"If you stick your neck in this story, you might end up struggling, right?" Then I thought I'd scratch your blame! Do you have any complaints? "

“I see. Even in the city, it's not desirable to talk about other houses.”

"That's true, but Terrier-Mass is a dear friend!" Even if I were to be resented by the people in the liquor store, I wouldn't pull back! "

"Well, well, calm down....... by the way, the second son of the liquor store, is Yumi someone you know?"

"Yeah. We also buy liquor from there." You may be a serious worker, but you don't have the guts to be frightened of our customers. I can't leave Theria = Mas to him like that! "

“Yumi, calm down,” Yun-Sudra also said.

"Isn't it because of Levi's presence that Yumi feels that way?" If Teriah-Math hadn't thought of Levi, wouldn't Yumi have disobeyed him? "

"Huh? Well, um... that might be the case, but..."

"Above all, I think it is the feelings of Terrier-Mass that should be valued. First of all, is Terrier-Mass really suspicious of Levi?”

"That's for sure!" Hey, Asta? "

I'll say, "Yeah." Terrier-Mass once confided in Yumi - I've overheard it.

"Speaking of which, at that time, Levi's reaction was dull, and Terrier-Mass became a joke." In fact, what does Levi think of Terrier-Mass? "

"You're in love with me, aren't you!" I live under the same roof as that cute girl! "

But even if the story of Terrier = Mas is lifted, you're still insisting that Levi has nothing to do with it.

When I told you so, Yumi got so close.

"That's why I don't understand." As the same man, what does Asta think? "

"That's... after all, you're the daughter of a great benefactor, so I guess you're distracted." When Levi is chilled by Ben or Cargo, he often says that he is not worthy of such a fine lady. ”

"Because you're not worthy of being hired?" Because you're out of the ghetto? It's ridiculous to give up on someone you fell in love with! "

"That may be the case, but it should be a big deal for me." Levi lost his place with his father and was saved by Milan = Mas... so is it so strange to think that he would be in love with his daughter? "

"...... is Asta on Levi's side after all?"

"I'm not on either side." I just want it to end in a way that they can be convinced of. "

Then the ladies of the Rats said, "Um..."

“As far as I can tell, there is no mention of Terrier-Mass' father, Milan-Mass... but it is the role of the head of the family to decide on the wedding ceremony around the forest. What does Milan-Mass say?"

"It seems like Milan-Mass is thinking of letting everyone leave it to themselves. That's why you shouldn't complain about Terrier-Mass being married to Levi."

"Still, Levi doesn't want to respond to Terrier-Mass' feelings, does he?"... is Levi suspicious of the truth, Terrier-Mass? "

In response to the outright inquiry of the ladies of the Lats, the maiden Eumi also stammered.

"I definitely think so, but... I've never heard of it myself." How about Asta? "

"Me, too." Like I said, Levi seems to be trying to stand back. "

"Will Terrier-Mass be happy if he stops?"

Now it was my turn.

"Well... if you're thinking of each other, I'd like you to tie it..."

Then again, the important thing is Levi's mood.

The crowd of lats speaks again in a calm tone. She has a very friendly and clear temper, but she also has a decisive temper similar to that of a parent.

"If Levi doesn't think of Terrier = Mass, then there's no need to be noisy around him. First of all, shouldn't we check Levi's mood?"

That was the word Radajid advised me earlier. After all, it was Levi's mood that was the most indeterminate.

Yumi said, "That's right!" I put my fist in my palm.

"Well then, ask Asta!" He's definitely hiding the truth! "

"Huh? Me? That's better than Ben or Cargo..."

"They just teach and never talk!"... by the way, Levi used to be the one who didn't teach about love and sand. I'm sure that part was really serious. "

And Yumi stared me in the face.

"If you're the same guy and Asta is just as serious, I'm sure he'll tell you the truth." I'll take Terrier = Mas's shoulder, so please don't ask me. "

I was puzzled and wandered my gaze unexpectedly ─ ─ The women from the forestside, headed by Yun-Sudra, looked at me with a roughly convincing face.
