After successfully completing the business in the station town, it was a study session at the Luw's house.

When we arrived at Luu's settlement, there were more than ten people of Sauti's blood waiting for us there, including Faye and Tamuru.

"Ah, welcome back, everyone!" Sister Reina, I've finished the stall for tomorrow! "

Rimi-Lou, who was speaking to the group in the square, told them so with a smile full of smiles. After Sheila = Lew left the stall, the system was in place so that even Reina = Lew could proceed with her work.

"Well then, everyone can use the rest of the time for the study group." Rimi, thank you for your hard work. And Lara-- "

"I'm here, too." It was the first time I'd ever spoken to the people of Souti, so I was listening to their stories. "

Then, Lara = Lou also emerged from the center of the circle of people.

The people of the Sauti bloodline who came to the scene were bowing their heads towards us.

"I will take care of Lu Wu and the people of Fa." Thank you for your help today. ”

“Yes, thank you very much.”

This is how they came to the village of Roux to learn how to handle unblemished gibbons. This is the one who called out, but even so, the number of people was higher than expected.

"It's already five days before the fresh meat duty turns over to the Sweety people." She said she came out with enough people to ride in the wagon in Sautee. "

It was Lara = Lou who explained that to me. In Souti, there are currently three trucks, one of which is used here, so it seemed that 12 people, the remaining capacity of two vehicles, came to the scene.

The majority of them are Faye and Tamur's family, who are still not part of Fa's family. For the other four families, it was not until four days later that the staying group returned, so the other family members were hoping for more time.

"Together with the guests of Fa's house, there are fifteen Soutie's blood family." So, Yun-Sudra and the others aren't here today, right? "

In response to Lara = Luu's question, I will say "yes". There was no shortage of guides in the House of Ruu, so Yun-Sudra and the others decided to do something different to help Fow and Gaz's bloodline.

In addition, the women of Ratz and Auro, who were on daily shifts, were already acquainted with the technique, so they were asked to help with the same work. All I had was four guests and Faye-Behm.

"In that case, we should be able to separate the main house and Zeda's house... I think it would be just right if Reina's sister, Rimi, Mim and Mikel accepted six people at a time, and asked Asta to take care of the other three." Reina-san, is that all right? "

Yeah. You can leave it to Lara to talk about it.

"It's not like that." Reina and her sisters are actually the only ones who can help you. "

Lara-Lou spilled white teeth like Rudo-Lou.

"So, how do we divide it?" After all, should I leave the three Fa guests to Asta? "

No. I can do it tomorrow or the day after, so I'd like to ask someone else to do it today.

"Okay. Then I'll ask Asta for Faye's people." You can help people out, can't you? "

Yeah. There are also Yamil-Ray and Faye-Baym-

And when I looked around, Yamil = Ray snuggled up to Mime. Yamil-Ray seems to be acting completely like himself, but he doesn't want to be the same as me yet. Yamil = Ray is in a complicated mood, lonely like a smiling childish act.

Well then, please ask Faye-Behm for my help.

"I understand." However, I haven't done anything about handling Giba meat that hasn't been drained of blood yet. "

Baim is an ongoing fresh meat clan member, so his work ended a few days ago. But Faye-Behm hadn't mastered it because he was staying at Naham's house. Marfila-Naham flew around the house every day, so she didn't even have time to catch up with Faye-Behm, who lived in the same house.

"With my help, Faye-Behm needs to master this technique." Eventually, Naham's house will be on duty. ”

"I understand." I want to do everything I can to make sure Asta doesn't get in your way. ”

With Faye-Baim and Faye, who spoke like that, I decided to aim for the hut of the Sin-Ruu family I knew on my own.

The women of Faye are one old and two young. For me, Faye and Tamur were the thinnest interacting clans in the Souti bloodline--that is, they were synonymous with the thinnest interacting clans in the forest.

"Um, I heard about it earlier... is that what you call Faye = Baem?"

And it shall come to pass on the way to the maidshed, that an elderly woman shall inquire of her.

The elderly women smiled calmly as Fei-Baim briefly answered, “Yes.”

“This is the first time I've met someone named Faye. Thank you for being a part of this.”

On the edge of the forest, the same name as the existing clan is allowed to be found by the female crowd. Ray = Matua Ran, named after Ray, and Ei = Fa's mother, named after Mei, who was once a family member of Ratz, and May Jean = Zaza Ran.

"Well, if Fay had a name for Baym, it would be Baym-Fay." It's kind of weird to think about that. ”

When I clasped my mouth like that, Faye's ladies smiled softly, saying, "That's right."

"Until now, we have not had the opportunity to deepen our interaction with people who are not blood relatives, so we probably had no problems. I'm sure this has been the custom since our ancestors lived in the Black Forest... our ancestors may have had fewer opportunities to deepen their interactions with people other than blood."

“I see. If you imagine it that way, you're a little lonely.”

When I answered like that, the women of Faye said, "Why?" I've been questioning it.

"Huh? Because... wouldn't it be more fun to interact with various clans?" I myself have been advocating that the people around the forest should be so.... "

"Oh, is that so?" I imagined a completely different scene. ”

Finally, smiling softly, the women of Faye said so.

"Did Asta set foot in the sanctuary of Morga?" I have also heard of the place of the sanctuary. .. Didn't you know that in the sanctuary the people live in a place of their choice in the vast mountains and that some clans have built settlements several days away? ”

“Yes, that's what I think it was.”

"Living so far away from home, you won't have a chance to deepen your interaction. Also, if all the clans had as many blood families as Lu, I could live a healthy and satisfying life without having a deep interaction with the rest of the clans... I imagined so."

"Ah, I see... when you lived in the Black Forest, you imagined that all the clans had so many blood families."

"Yes, but we were only allowed to live in a very limited place in Morga. Besides, the number of people has fallen considerably, so there are many clans that do not have enough blood. Still, because the people around the forest were neglecting to deepen their interaction with other people without blood, various distortions arose... so, didn't they lead to the tragedy of the Sun family?"

It was a chat on the way to the kamado hut, but it was a lot deeper.

Faye's ladies smiled shyly as I was somewhat puzzled and impressed by it.

"I'm sorry." The greeting was so loud... I just wanted to thank Asta for showing me the right way around the forest. "

"No, that's not true." I kind of felt like I was talking to Luu's eldest. "

"That's a ridiculous story." I am nothing but a woman of Faye's family. "

It was Faye-Behm who shouted "No".

“There is no main house or division in the value of people. I was also deeply impressed by your words. I was even more proud of my name, Faye.”

"It's really not such a big story." However, there were many things that Faye and Tamur people thought about.... "

And the women of Faye answered, and came unto the house of Sin-Roux.

During the Kamanote period, Tali-Ruu is preparing for the study group. However, it was said that Tali = Lou was about to go to Sheila = Lou.

"There's only one female crowd over there and over here, so there's a lot of work going on." I'm sorry, but thank you for your patience. ”

"There's nothing to be sorry about." Say hello to Sheila = Lew. "

Speaking of which, it was said that the Sin-Roux family and the Dalm-Roux family were still having dinner together, but compared to a total of six men, the only women in the group were Tali-Roux and Sheila-Roux. Considering that Mida-Lou was also included in the men's crowd, it seemed that the preparation of the dinner alone would cause a great deal of difficulty.

However, I'm sure that Lara = Lou and the women of other subdivisions are also adding strength to the busy times. Not only the Luws, but the people near the forest support each other with their blood and live healthy lives.

After sending out the tari = lu, the procedure of blood withdrawal by salt water will be explained again.

So I marinated Giba meat in saltwater, and after it was often empty, I decided to speak to Faye's elderly ladies.

"Earlier, you said that there were many things that Faye and Tamur people thought about. If you don't mind, why don't you tell us what it's like?”

"Oh, you still remember that story?" Asta is a peculiar person, isn't she? ”

Faye's ladies smiled softly again.

"It's not such a big story... but Faye and Tamur are building a settlement on the southern edge of Soutie's bloodline, right?" In other words, it is the southernmost edge of the forest. A short walk to the north will take you to the villages of Souti and Vera... and a short walk will take you to the villages of Dada and Dawn... and beyond that, there's no reason to go north. Except for the parents on their way to the patriarchal assembly, we were supposed to live only among the bloodline. ”

"Oh, I see... sometimes I run into people like Fow and Tamul at Fa's house, but they didn't get the chance to do that."

"Yes, I might have run into Daeda and Dawn from the north, but Faye and Tamul didn't even have it." Until I was born in this world and returned my soul to the Forest of my Mother, there were mostly people who only met their bloodline. ”

After all, this elderly woman is a more thoughtful person than usual. I really felt like I was talking to Grandma Ziva.

“That's why we now use wagons to wish Mufa and Lilin a tasty meal.. A few days ago, we had to leave our families with Ratz and Auro. And... it's not unusual for Faye or Tamur to have guards.”

"Guards? Oh, right. Right next to the village, the streets leading to the Sims were cut open.”

"Yes. At the border with your street, a guard lockup was also built... and even if something happens to Chief Dalí-Sauthi there, the words will be delivered to Faye and Tamur first."

“Recently, you've been entrusted with cooking for the Hida-afflicted people of Dalai Lama.”

When the young ladies were gentle with their faces, the elderly ladies rolled up their faces and said, "Yes."

"Until we got the wagon, we also bought Aria and Poitan in your village. However, at that time, I was evasive, so there was no such thing as interaction. But when I cooked for the people who were caught in the fuss of Hida... it was hard to behave as if they were my old friends."

That's great, isn't it?

"Yes, that is why I am deeply grateful to Asta for showing me a new way around the forest." Of course, even in times when only blood relatives knew, we were happy... but that's because we didn't know about other happiness. How much we lived in a small world... it has taken us two years to bite such feelings hard. "

"I feel the same way. When I heard the stories of Asta and the others at the Patriarchal Council two years ago, I was upset that something terrible would happen... but after the reign of the nobility, the world gradually grew brighter."

And another of the young women multiplied their words.

I felt something completely, and I couldn't even answer -- Fei = Baim said, "I see."

"I think Baem felt completely different from you because of his proximity to Gaz and Ratz, but still, he was often disturbed by the changing situation around the forest. I'm sure you were more surprised and impressed than that.”

“Yes, so I finally have the chance to meet Asta and Lu and I'm very proud of them. You may not have the opportunity to do so in the future... but please keep in mind that there are people living on the southern edge of the forest who appreciate Asta."

Both the elderly ladies and the two young ladies are staring at me with a very soft expression.

Sautee, Vera, Dada, and Dawn may have had a slightly different atmosphere, but after all, it was a calm, uncomfortable, and not at all frail air that seemed to me favorable to those people.

(After all... there's something I don't know until I try to face each other.)

I felt so satisfied that I decided to chew on my feelings.

◇

“Well, I'm glad we were able to bond with Faye's family.”

The night of the day.

At dinner, when I reported on the study session at the Luu family, Dali-Sauthi said that with a happy smile.

"We're the only ones staying at Fa's house, so Faye and Tamur's family must have gotten even more excited." I took care to keep Ratz's blood and family together so that I could expand my interaction with other people. "

"However, even if you send people who are interested in the Pharaoh's house to another house, your heart will not be satisfied!" There are no other people like Asta or Ei = Fa that are so enjoyable! "

Lau-Ray interrupted loudly as he ate his dinner. Dalí-Sauthy responded with a bitter smile, “That's right.”

"We have stayed in Fa's house four times, so we will be fully envied by other clansmen." I must not be accused of unjustly using the chief's identity. "

“In fact, I didn't get a chance to bond with the Souti bloodline. I was truly delighted with Dalí-Saudi's offer."

When I answered like that, the Six, Sutti's bloodline, gave me a uniformly happy smile.

Lau-Ray said, "Hmm?" and frowned with a beautiful shape.

"It was my first offer in a year, but I wasn't told anything I was happy about." This treatment shouldn't be fair. "

"Oh, yeah. I'm so glad that Lau-Ray also came to Pharaoh's house."

"I can't feel the truth at all! Ai = Fa, I want you to forgive Asta!"

“I can't give you that kind of forgiveness. Asta doesn't make fun of Lau-Ray bypassing her."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm so comfortable with you that I can slap you in the mouth, so please give me a break."

Lau-Ray mumbled.

"I don't have to complain about Sutti's blood family staying at the same time... but I don't feel like I've been interacting with Asta much." Last time I slept and was alone in the water, so I felt like I had a brother. "

"Oh, there are only three older sisters up there, Rau-Ray." Well, I've been an only child since the beginning. "

"Was Asta an unbroken brother?" Vera's young parents opened their eyes wide.

"You don't hear much of it around the forest." Well, there aren't many people who lose all their brothers due to hunting and disease... did Asta not have a single brother from the beginning? "

“Yes, because my mother was a little sick, it could have had an impact. But since I had a childhood friend who grew up as a brother, I never missed him.”

"Yes! That's what we were talking about last time!" Therefore, this time, it will not be enough! "

Lau-Ray interrupted me again.

Vera's eldest brother, the great Dawn, sends out a rescue boat as the head of the family struggles with her reaction.

“It certainly seems interesting because I haven't had a chance to hear Asta's story before. But are Ray's parents dissatisfied?"

Umuuuuuuuuuuuuuruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

"Hmm. If it was the ladies I was worried about, I wouldn't know." Ray's parents are very affectionate, aren't they? "

Surprised? I remember my father preaching to me many times.

When Rau-Ray answered, the eldest brother of Dawn laughed pleasantly.

"The story of Ray's parents is as interesting as Asta's. Enjoying the story of Asta and I will wait for the next opportunity, and I would like us to fully talk about it this time."

"Hmm! Like I said, I'm not dissatisfied with your stay!" It's very significant that I work with you and train with you!... well, if you don't want enough interaction with Asta, I hope you and Yamil can stay alone again! "

Eifa sighed small, and Yamil-Ray shrugged her shoulders. And the sisters of Dada were giggling and sneering at the appearance of both names.

"But I would be very happy if Asta had made it meaningful for me to talk to the women of Faye." Didn't you get the chance to talk to the women of Tamur? "

Sautti's youngest sister asked, so I nodded, "Yeah."

“I just said that today people are going to go to the Luu settlement for a while, and I'm going to have a study group with the Tamul people in three days' time.”

“Three days from now.. it's the last day we'll be staying at Fa's house. Five days will soon pass.”

“Yes, that doesn't mean you have much fun spending time at Fa's house.”

Dawn's youngest sister followed as she burned her cheeks.

"However, once the new hunting technique is completed with this stay, there will be no reason to ask to stay in Fa's house for a while." I'm very sorry to hear that. "

"Hmm. Now that we've finished the new tricks, we'll have to pass them on to the various clans." I don't have much room for the facade. "

Having said that, Dali-Sauthi smiled slowly.

"Besides, we should deepen our interaction with all clans, not just Fa." As the women of Faye had also told us, Souti is a family that has spent most of its life alone. When I send out a hunter to tell him a new trick, I'm going to ask the ladies to accompany me. ”

"As before, you'll keep your family with other clans, right?" I'm looking forward to it again. ”

Dada's eldest sister smiled and responded like that, but Dawn's youngest sister seemed unable to abandon her mastery of the Pharaoh's house. It was only from the second time that she had participated in the stay at Fa's house, so she might feel less than the other members.

Whatever it may be, it is grateful that he should desire so much to stay in the house of Pharaoh.

I was able to talk to the people of Fei during the day today, and it was a very satisfying day for me.

(I wonder if Yumi and Luia are safe. I guess they're not just having fun over there.)

The second night was a busy and peaceful passing, as I had such thoughts in my head.
