"What's wrong with you? I don't think I'm feeling well in the morning."

It was the third day of the purple moon that I called to Thur-din that way.

The disturbance of the Lord of the Forest was also finally over, and it was that insignificant thing that he was doing his work in the Accommodation Town as usual.

Thur-din shakes his head as he sets a new steaming cage for 'Giba-Man' in an iron pan.

"It's not a big deal. Don't worry about me or anything like that."

"That's an impossible consultation. If Tour-Din was so snug, there's no way he wouldn't mind."

I peek from the side at Tool-din's face, which is even lower than one head.

"Well, maybe I can't help you, but maybe just telling someone makes you feel better, huh? If you don't like Tour-Din, I want you to talk to me about everything."

Tour-din has looked back at my face without power.

Though it is not the tears that come to mind, it is almost like a sob face. Now it was more of an impossible consultation not to care.

"Actually... my parents scolded me yesterday"

"Parents are to Din's parents? Then why again?

"Yes.. I was reprimanded for wasting precious ingredients because I had cooked such an impossible dish.."

"Such an idiot. Did Tour-Din cook so much that he couldn't?

I know Tour-Din best, and she was dedicated to the great task of saving Sautti until three days ago. It was only yesterday that she was finally able to return to her home, and she said that her family had screwed with her struggles in the general public, and it was already smiling happily.

Tour-Din was taken from Sung's branch. Though it was stipulated that she would not be guilty of past crimes if she lived correctly, because of her character, she must have initially been very thoughtful.

That's what trained him as Kamadoku number at Fa's house, and he's finally grown to the point where he can put Kamadoku number on the wedding of the northern settlement, and now he's helping with the lodging town job to bring a lot of wealth to Din's house. And this time he did the task of leaving the ordeal of the House of Sauti, and returned even the femur of the LORD of the forest. Even the Din family will no longer be able to live her pride and joy on her chest without feeling her shoulder blame - and as far as I'm concerned, it was an arrow-tipped event that made me reaffirm such thoughts.

Also, Din's parents would have said hello to me. It was once the family of the Sung family, but because the house is far away there should have been no deep interaction with the Sung family or the northern settlements, and it should have been a folk-like family by the woods living poor and clean raw, just like Fou and Lan in one way or another. It was hard for me to imagine that Din's parents would reprimand Tour-Din for a little mischief.

"Um, what the hell is this all about? Wasn't it some unfortunate misunderstanding?

"That's not true. All the men seemed to feel the same as their parents, so that's how badly they did the dishes... I'm sorry for Asta for being so handy with me etc..."

"That's a funny story all the time. I can't believe Tour-Din cooked such an impossible dish. What kind of dish did Tour-Din serve?

"I put sugar all over the Poitan..."

Saying so, Tour-Din finally begins to cry.

Then a subtle Yamil-Ray approached me from the next stall and received a bronze coin from a new visitor.

I'll give you my respects and then I'll take Tour-Din out to the back of the stall.

"The women who kept Kamado with me were delighted... but I'm sure it was a meal the hunters didn't deserve. I feel very impudent when it comes to saving the life of the day.."

"Hey, calm down, Tour-din. Look, don't cry."

"... I'm sorry..."

Tour-din sneers deeply and wets his tears with the hand tufted I gave him.

She is only ten years younger, though her culinary skills are at her fingertips by the woods. It has a particularly delicate temper around the woods. I felt like I could hold my chest in front of her tears.

"Can I ask you a few more details? Did you just put sugar in the potato?

"No... I used caron's milk to melt the poiton, and to improve the flavor and tongue feel, I also put together milk fat and kimmus eggs... and just a little dried lamb fruit..."

Lamam fruit is a sweet fruit very similar to apples. I have also used it for 'Giva Curry' as a hidden flavor, but I have only bought dried lambs on the palate.

"Hmm. I'm listening, it looks very tasty, though. But I wonder if it's closer to dessert than cooking."

"With what?

"Yeah. It's about confectionery. Tour-Din would have spoken at a study group or a dinner party in Castle Town, too. It's the last of the six dishes that will be prepared."

For the most part, if the milk is covered with milk fat and eggs, it is the same ingredient as the hot cake and doughnuts I served to Refraia. The only difference is that I use Poitan, not Fuwano.

However, such recipes are not even available by the woods because what I once offered at the dinner party were chutch cakes and steamed pudding. It wasn't even inspired by that, I guess, because what Varcus prepared was also a confection like a meringue cookie made of eggs.

"Did Tour-Din discover the dish himself? In fact, even in my hometown, there were a lot of sweets that used those ingredients."

"Really...? As usual, I was just aiming for a delicious meal of my own.. even though sugar and milk fat are expensive ingredients, I wasted them all.."

"No, that must have just been a problem with the other dishes. Certainly not suitable for eating with meat and juice dishes... I guess it's easy to avoid something called sweetness because I wasn't in the habit of eating sugar or sweet fruit around the woods in the first place"

With that said, I rush to overlap words without inducing new tears.

"But you could immediately accept a sweet sauce made with fruit liquor, and no one would complain about the combination of tau oil and sugar? The problem was, after all, it went hand in hand with other dishes. If it was served as a post-meal treat like a dinner party in Castle Town, I'm sure the men would have thought it would be delicious."

"... is that so...?

"I'm sure you are. Speaking of which, she also loved chatch cakes and steamed pudding at the Lew family Limi-Lew, so she also made them for dinner on her own day?

Unfortunately, however, it was Sheila-Lou and Lara-Lou who were coming down to Accommodation Town today.

Besides, the Lew family is busy opening the Blue Sky Dining Room, and they don't even have time to have casual conversations like we do.

"Yes, when you get back to Luu's settlement, let me eat that Thur-din dish. Call Rimi-Lou, too, and let's have a taste together. So we can see if there's a problem with the flavor itself."

"Yes......" Thur-din looks up at me with his eyes wet in tears.

I'm sure Tour-Din worked hard to rub that sweet Poitan treat in his family's delight. How sad I was to be scolded for not being able to do that. I don't suppose Din's parents are guilty, either, but we can't leave them like this at last.

With that in mind, he was called "Asta" by the stall.

"Is that enough? Looks like you have a visitor.

"Yes? Are you a customer to me?

Returning to the stall with a nod of Tour-Din, your young daughter, who somehow looked familiar, bowed her head deeply.

"I'm sorry to keep you busy. My name is Shayla, and I am a samurai of Polearth."

"Shayla......? Oh, you're the one who's helping Jan at Tanto's Grace Pavilion and at the stall. Thank you for hitting on me."

"It is a great honor to know such things as me"

He has a qualitative personality so that he can't get his eyes on the unreliable man in the Inn Town, but his behavior and tone have become dull with elegance. She had brown hair for a long time, and she was about my age.

"Today, we have even spoken of the message from Master Polearth. May I tell you now on this occasion?

"Yes, what the hell"

"Thank you. Actually, I want to invite Asta to Castle Town."

I wondered if new ingredients had arrived from somewhere else, but it was not, and it was a request to sift my arm as a number.

Moreover, it is not in Pole Earth that they hope for it, but Eurifia, the lady of the depths of Melfried.

"The due date is the seventh day of the purple month. It's a snack from your lady's gathering at Swan Palace in Castle Town."

"A gathering of your ladies? Is it a snack, not dinner?... then is that like a tea party?

"Yes, they want sweet treats, not meat or vegetable dishes"

At this time, I decided to shut up a little bit about making confectionery.

I kind of feel like I'm being set up by fate god even with a bad flirt.

"Um, but confectionery making isn't my area, is it? I am still anxious to see if I can live up to your expectations.... Plus, it's the seventh day of the purple month, and this business is usually a business day. Just tomorrow is the holiday, and we start working another ten days on the fifth day of the purple moon."

"Well, I just dropped the message, so I can't answer anything... but I'm sure the request has been officially delivered to the forest chief by now."

That would be so. If the people of the castle ask for work from the people of the woods, they should speak to the chief first.

Thinking "hmm," Shayla glanced around for a moment before leaning over to my ear.

"Um, this is a word that has been personally uttered to Master Polearth... anything. In the castle town today, it seems that a number of noble people are desiring Asta's dishes. It seems that Lord Genos is constrained not to disturb the lives of the people by the woods... but Lord Eurifia is the only one such a candidate can't constrain."

I nodded, "I see," as I remembered Eurifia, who seemed to have a noble and quite exhilarating temper.

"The truth seems to be that I managed to convince Asta to pull back to the Tea Party where I was trying to leave the bigger dinner party job to her. So I'm very sorry, but I was wondering if I could make some time for you to satisfy Eurifia's curiosity... Polearth said so."

"Both Polearths and Genos climate take proper account of the people by the woods, don't they? I'm going to understand that....... ok. I will also consult with the forest chief and manage to consider it positively."

"Yes, thank you"

As relieved as it must have been, Shayla let herself go of me.

Then, all of a sudden, he dyes his cheeks and starts messing with his moulds and forehead.

"So, what if Asta is going to be accompanied by Ay-Fa when she takes on this job...?

"Is it Ai-Fa? Well, that's probably what's gonna happen."

This is the third day since crusading the Lord of the Woods. Ey-Fa, who has broken his ribs, has also been able to move quite inexorably since yesterday, entrusting him with boredom. If I told him this story, he would undoubtedly give him a name as an escort first.

That's a source of concern for me, but Shayla was making her face shine somehow.

"Jan is also invited that day, so I think I will be accompanied. .. Now, please say hello to Master Ai-Fa"

"Ha."

As I smiled and walked away and dropped off Shayla's hindsight, I was (wondering what was going on) going to sigh inside.

◇

"Oh, everybody, welcome back!

When we returned to the settlement of Lou, there were a lot of women waiting for us.

Tomorrow is a holiday and there shouldn't be any planting work, but what is wrong with this liveliness? From within this bright, it seems almost ready for dinner already.

From that, Rimi-Lou, full of energy, laughs today.

"I don't get a lot of gibberish these days, and I don't have a lot of fur free work. So we split the firewood, so we were all ready for dinner!

Well, I'm convinced.

There were two reasons for the decrease in the catches of Giva, it was time for the impending period of rest in the settlement of Luu and for the rest, both Donda-Lou and Darum-Lou, to be out of work due to injuries.

Between them, there are four women from the Lou family and two women from the Lou family to encourage their work. In a somewhat unusual place, there was a different appearance of Sati Ray-Luu in the sister groups Vina-Lu, Raina-Lu and Limi-Luu.

I'll greet you gently and then I'll turn back to Rimi-Lou.

"But it would have been just fine if Rimi-Lou had. Will Rimi-Lou be able to participate in today's study group as well?

"Do it! What are you doing today?

"Today, I'm sure Rimi-Lou will be delighted."

Having such a conversation, two ladies approached each other with a single share.

"Asta at Fa's house. May we join the study group today?

"Yeah, sure."

It was the women of the Zaza family who were staying in the settlement of Luu. This is how they participate in the study group if they have the chance.

One is an elderly lady, whose name is May Gene-Zaza. She is the sister of Gene's parents and the daughter-in-law of Graf-Zaza's brother. She has a disappointing physique as long as her back, but not as good as Pierce Loch's and not as good as Mother Meer Ray's.

The other is a sixteen-year-old unmarried woman, Sufila-Zaza. Zaza's youngest sister in the main house - that is, Graf-Zaza's daughter, slender and tall, with long black brown hair in three large braids, draped on her right shoulder. This one also has a youthful style and I don't really think it's younger than Raina-Lou.

Lem-Dom and others wore Gibba bone ornaments, but they wore Gibba fur chests and waistbands over their whirlpool patterned outfits. It's not crude for once, but it has sharp eyes, a harsh expression, and a sense of intimidation, no matter where. That's the brave, well-known women of the northern settlements, and so on.

"Well, let's take a look at Tour-Din's arrangements."

In anticipation of where I had finished cleaning up my supper schedule, I called it that way.

Though I'm probably scared, Tour-Din starts looking for ingredients with "yes......"

In addition to the original six, we were joined by eight of us, so we're in a state of full gratitude for how long. Watched by those people, Tour-Din silently proceeded with the hand of work.

First dissolve the powder of Poitan in caron milk, then add more milk fat and kimmus eggs. Then I added sugar, made sure it tasted, and then took away the dried lamb.

The taste is similar to that of apples, but the epidermis is yellow and the body inside is the fruit of red lambs. Slip the fruit into pieces like dried persimmons and drop it into a melted dough.

Poitan has less viscosity than Fuwano, so the fabric is a lot of liquid. Stirring it to whip with a wooden bell, then dropping the milk fat onto a scratched iron plate, it spread round like a hot cake.

The shade is also slightly yellow because I use Kimmus eggs. Apparently, it wouldn't be much different from the fuwano hotcakes I used to have.

"Hmm, that smells good! It's absolutely delicious, this!

While peeking into the hand of Tour-Din, Rimi-Lou was already a look of pleasure.

But Tour-Din's expression is serious.

So when Tour-Din flipped the Poitan dough, it looked brown and baked. That looked so hot cake turned.

"... that's it"

The hotcake-style poitain, which would be 30 cm in diameter, could be transferred to a large plate without being cleverly shaped.

When I saw the sight of a knife being put in there, I thought, "Oh," for the first time.

It feels like Sakurasakuri, and the sword passes a lot lighter.

Speaking of which, the fudge addition and subtraction is quite something, and even though it was originally 1 cm thick, it seems to inflate about three times. Maybe the way you stir like you whip is showing more effect than you thought.

"... Best wishes for a taste"

With a fairly thought of look, Tour-Din pulled himself back.

We each have our own sweets split into small wooden plates.

It has an aroma of milk fat reminiscent of fine butter.

The inner fabric from the cross section has a moist and tender texture, glancing at the red lamb fruit from the place.

One amount at a time was a whisper, so I threw the whole thing into my mouth.

Really, a gentle fragrance soaks up my nose.

The taste is still close to hot cake.

However, the texture was unique.

It's moist, but fluffy and loose in my mouth. I guess it's a lot more air than the hot cake I make. It was a very pleasant texture, with a cohabitation of mellow and light.

And the fruit of Lamam is also a better accent. A hint of sweetness and sourness smudges from grains of hot fruit, making a perfect tease of the sweetness of sugar and milk fat. From both the texture and the flavour, this lamb fruit produced just how delicious it was.

"Yeah, this is delicious"

And I got my gaze around, and I got a little stifled up.

Some of the women were breathing with a tranced face.

Its heads were Limi-Luu and Yun-Sudra and Sati Ray-Luu, as well as the Sufila-Zaza family.

The other members are more or less satisfied with their expressions, but the four of them already look like blissful faces.

On the other hand, Raina-Lou and Sheila-Lou, among others, were slowly ascertaining the flavor with a very serious look, and only Vina-Lou had let his bewildering gaze wander, just like mine.

"What's wrong...? Looks like everyone's eyes are changing color..."

"What's the matter, you're so delicious!!

Limi-Lew throws out an empty wooden dish and leads to Thur-din's arm.

"I've never seen such a delicious Poitan! Tool-din thought of this dish himself!?

"Oh, yes, the..."

Thur-din is looking back at the goose and its smile.

Then Yun-Sudra grabbed the opposite arm.

"I agree! I meant well that Tour-Din has exceptional skill...... no more words!

Speaking of which, Yun-Sudra is also careful not to use too much sugar, I think I've spoken before. Like Rimi-Lou, I guess she's a sweetheart too.

And in front of the pitiful Tour-Din, Sati Ray-Luu stands quietly.

"This texture is very strange. It seems to be the kind of dish that only sweetened the yakitori that Asta once taught us, but I think it has a completely different flavor than that again"

Now even Sphilla-Zaza is exactly a quadruple song situation once she surrounds Tour-din, but not so close, she was just snuggling her eyes out and savoring a hot cake-style poiton.

Vina-Lou, who was silently anxious to see how they were, shrugged her shoulders colorfully.

"I don't think I'm usually delicious either, it doesn't seem that way... I wonder if this is the same dish Asta used to put sugar and vanilla in Fuwano...?

"Oh, that happened, too. I think it's in the same series, if you can tell the big picture."

Speaking of which, I've had vanilla and sugar like cinnamon mixed with fuwano to preach the importance of vanilla, too. In addition, the use of Kimmus eggs may have been inspired by what I used with okonomiyaki and pasta, but the other part should be the original Thur-din.

I'll turn my gaze around to see what Raina-Lou and the others are going to think.

"I'm sure those of you who went out to Castle Town will see that this should be considered a post-meal treat, not a regular dish. On top of that, what do you think?

"Yes, I think it's very tasty. Varcus didn't seem to put much effort into something called confectionery, but isn't this... an unbeatable treat for Asta or Varcus?

"Yeah, I don't specialize in confectionery making either. Varcus seemed to think that he deserved a treat that didn't claim too much as a way of cooking the six dishes, so maybe he would make something interesting again when making the treat alone.... Whatever, I'm a little surprised Tour-Din could make such a delicious treat on his own with little knowledge."

Thur-din is getting a little tearful while Limi-Luu and Yun-Sudra keep both arms in captivity.

Of course that was supposed to be a tear of a completely different nature than the tear we were showing before noon.
