"Then I have another job to do.. Now if you'll excuse me.."

Leaving those words behind, Vina-Lou left the cabin.

As I begin to prepare for the study group, I look back at Rayna-Lew.

"Vina-Lou didn't attend the study group, but was he waiting in Kamado's cabin?

"Ah, yes. Sister Vina was on duty. I'm just finishing the job."

After stating so, Raina-Lou smiled with a grin.

"I'm just about to attend the study group as usual, but I dared you to come off today. In today's study group, I want to learn about wedding feast cooking."

"Oh, I see. Well, then, Vina-Lou has to come off."

When I answered that, from the entrance, I said, "Whoa!" I heard a lovely voice.

"Wow! From Ji-Mayam, maybe you're old! Even the people of the east are so quiet."

Looking back in haste, Rimi-Lou was just looking up at Alvach with an impressive face. Raina-Lou frowns and raises his voice "here".

"Excuse me, Remi. They're important guests."

"Sorry! Rimi is my youngest sister Rimi-Lou in the main house"

Limi-Lew got in an upright position and lowered his head a little. When you look up like that, there's a full grin there.

"But you're really old! You look so strong!... and maybe a little like a hunter by the woods?

"The territory of Gerd is a mountainous area, inhabited by many dangerous beasts such as the Big Bear of Mufur. Are Lord Alvach and Lord Nanaquem also given the opportunity to hunt such beasts?

Alvach nodded heavily, "Uhm," as Fermes whispered his words.

"Gerd's man, Muffle's big bear, if he can't be tailored, for one, he can't be admitted. clan of lords, no exception"

"Wow! Really, then, you sound like a hunter!

So were those factors involved in the intimidation I was feeling from them as well? Speaking of which, the people of the North are also a brave clan hunting big bears.

In the midst of such an exchange, Raina-Lou finally greets Rimi-Lou by proceeding with his walk to his place.

"My family, I beg your pardon. If you're offended, I apologize on my behalf."

"Words of apology, unnecessary. Young child, to be innocent, naturally"

Alvach was tolerant, so I could breathe in relief, too.

That's how Rimi-Lou was also pulled in for everyone, and it's finally the start of the study group. In addition to Raina-Lu, Lara-Luu and Limi-Luu, Grandma Tito Min was also in her face today. And then there are the Ray and Minn women who were helping with the Lew family stalls.

"So, what are the feast dishes thinking?

"Yes, I have an approximate idea.. before I do, I'd like to complete a dish dedicated to a new couple"

To the bride and groom who gave the wedding, a special dish is first dedicated to which only those two names speak. When I was entrusted with the Rutim family feast, I offered hamburgers and filet steaks.

"Oh, I see. Then more and more, we have to keep it a secret from Vina-Lou."

"Yes. So, Sheila-Lou and I also had a sneak discussion... Is it a harmony between his flavor and his soot?

"Curry-flavored steak? That's a good idea."

When I responded that way, Rayna-Lew smiled happily.

"Again, if Schmiral-Lilyn is going to say it, I thought his taste would be desirable. Still, when this happens, it's still a lesson to serve solid giva meat..."

"Yeah, I think it's good. You might have a lot of hands whether you want to wrap the curry spice around it and finish it like a flavored grill, or hang the curry sauce from the top."

"Yes, I would like to try everything that comes to mind"

Me and Raina-Lou discussed it and decided to start by studying it from a flavor grill.

Just cover them with spices and cook them may cause them to drip off with fat or gravy. There was also the hand of soaking it in spices and either smudging the flavor into the meat itself, or, by the frying procedure, adhering the spices to the meat - or pasting the spices and roasting them while applying them.

"The cooking method changes the intensity of the flavor. I think we should be careful there, especially since the curry has a strong flavour."

"Yes. Plus, you'll need to try all the meat areas, too. Because Schmiral-Lilyn won't be as powerful at biting as we are, I think it would be desirable to have a softer spot."

It was Raina-Lou who raised his voice today because Yun-Sudra and the others were hiccups. Well, since this is a dish for Vina-Lou and Schmiral-Lilyn, it might have been appropriate in that sense.

But when it came to cooking, everyone's hands never blunted. Tul-din, who cares about the presence of the mountain people, is likewise. The smell of spices happened in Kamado's cabin, causing Fermes to raise his voice "ho ho".

"This is also the scent of his cooking. Lord Alvach was particularly interested in this dish."

While I was doing my job, I asked him, "Really?"

In the corner of his sight, Fermes nods yes.

"If you don't mind, could you give Lord Alvach and Lord Nanaquem a taste, too?

"Huh? Are you going to stand and eat in a place like this?

"Yes, it seems to be an act that does not disobey Gerd's fashion."

With an elegant smile, Fermes looks back at the Alvakhs. Both names nodded facelessly.

"... This is a refreshing dish that is creating new dishes, so I don't know if it might finish deliciously. Still, are you sure?

and Rayna-Lew looks back at Fermes with a serious face. And Fermes said, "Yes."

"I heard all your conversations, so you two will understand. If you don't mind."

".. I understand"

Speaking of which, Rayna-Lew didn't even hear Alvach say he was a gastronomer. Let me sneak it up and there was an increasingly serious light in Rayna-Lew's eyes.

"So you're just looking forward to hearing what you have to say. If anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility."

That's how the first part of the prototype was finished. It is a curry-flavored fried grilled egg with meat rolled into the melted egg and covered with fuwano flour and spices.

"I'm sorry for what you've done so badly, let me check the flavor here first"

Declaring it that way, Raina-Lou cut the meat apart. Sites are loins, roses, momomos, filets.

More than a dozen Kamadoku people eat it one by one, instead of each task. The first person to raise his voice was Malfira-Naham.

"Ko, Ko, this sounds a little too flavorful.... Oh, I'm sorry I gave you a tip."

"No, I feel the same way. Now you seem to have too much vanilla."

Since I answered that way, Rayna-Lew has stared at me.

"However, if you are Schmiral-Lilyn, a flavor as strong as this might be desirable. What do you think of Asta?

"Yeah, sure. If you were born in the east, maybe you'd be just fine.... I just wonder if Vina-Lou will have a sore tongue"

"Yes, next time, try to reduce the amount of vanilla"

That's how Raina-Lou looked back at the guests with perseverance.

"Excuse me. Do mountain people like the strong flavors and aromas of vanilla as much as meadow people?

Fermes nodded the mountain people with his gaze. It was, after all, Alvach who responded.

"We, the meadows of Gigi, to visit, less. Dietary preferences, big differences, I guess,"

"Well, even this dish might give you a lot of satisfaction"

With a challenging face, Rayna-Lew split the dish into wooden dishes. The site is a loin.

Both names of Gerd received the dish on a crude wooden plate without complaining. And lean the plate without even using a wooden spoon and throw it into your mouth.

It was Nanaqem who raised his voice, "Mm." It is much more about crackling to hear the voice of this Mistress.

"How about that? As for the first prototype, I think it's quite a success."

"Mm-hmm. Extremely delicious, I think.... was Lord Fermes, the Word, the Truth"

"Yes. I am completely distracted by the dish called Him, too. Too bad you can't talk about the flesh of the beast."

Fermes smiled loosely and looked at Raina-Lou.

"Raina-Lou, if you don't mind, could you give Lord Melfried and Jemd a taste, too? I just wanted to ask Gemd how he feels about it."

"Yes, but perhaps the taste is too strong for those born in the west"

Still, Raina-Lou didn't cower and was delivering food to both of your names.

Both names, no less unreadable in the heart than the people of the east, use a wooden spoon to mouth the dish. "I see," he called out, "was Melfried.

"If you do eat this dish full of plates, your tongue may be paralyzed. But I think it's delicious enough for just one mouthful."

"Thank you," Rayna-Lew smiled.

Gemd, after all, is a deep voice, just stating that it is "delicious".

After seeing it through, Fermes smiled and looked back at Alvach.

"So how was Lord Alvach? They cook for Schmiral-Lilyn, born in the east, so your words will surely be helpful"

"Delicious, hard to say," Alvach snapped.

Rayna-Lew looks back at you slowly.

"I'm sorry. Didn't you mind?

"Um. Vanilla, flavor, aroma, too strong. Delicious, hard to say"

".. Are you not fond of the taste or aroma of vanilla?

"No. Vanilla, the taste of meat, it's gone. Giva meat, delicious, I was listening, but I have no idea"

With a grunting voice, Alvach went over words that way.

"Muffle, gamma, smell, strong. Therefore, a lot of vanilla, will be needed. Odor, vanilla, harmonious, irresistible flavor. But this dish, vanilla only, excels. Giva meat, meaning to use, where is it?

Rayna-Lew opened her eyes in a bit of a surprise.

Then, I can flatter my mouth like I can bare it.

"Sure, you're right. Even for us, this dish seemed too strong for the taste and aroma of vanilla, but we misjudged it to be satisfactory if you were born in the east. I'm going to change the amount of vanilla to make the same dish, so can I have a taste of that too?

"Uhm. Thank you, I think"

Rayna-Lew nodded one thing and turned back to the workbench with a strangely sunny face.

In the meantime, Nanaquem turns to Alvach.

"Alvach, complaining, a lot. Different vanilla, used, extremely delicious, I think"

"Vanilla, combination, great, I think. Therefore, the taste of meat, I didn't make use of it, it's a shame, I thought. I, Word, Reason to Decorate, Don't Have"

"... Again, complaining, a lot. So, mate, anger, buy"

Alvach just shrugged his thick shoulders and didn't try to answer anything.

There, Rimi-Lou's laugh of "haha" echoes.

"You have a partner! How old are you?

"I, 19 years old. Alvach, 21. partner, Gerd, waiting."

"Oh well. If you're 21, you're with my sister Vina!

I was heartily surprised because they were younger than I imagined.

And more than that, I'm amazed that they're showing us the human side. Camua-Josh told me they had a rough temper, and how they exude an atmosphere like it, but they seemed as soft as the people of the meadows I know.

As such, the dishes are finished one after the other, and they are transported to the Guest's mouth. I didn't have to give it to my guests for what I couldn't do, but I still couldn't quite get the word "delicious" out of Alvach's mouth.

Then Raina-Lou tackles the next dish in such an exciting way. He is more than happy to let Alvach waste him. If I could satisfy this stubborn guest, the ideal dish would be complete - but it was my intention as if I thought.

Thus, when time was solemnly overflowing and the study group approached its end of the line - at last, the men of the Lew family returned to the settlement.

Your parents are back.

Follow mother Meer Ray's voice and the guests leave the cabin. Along the way, Fermes called me.

"Asta, I have a gift for you, so could you stay with me if you can?

I got lost, but the study group was already about to start cleaning up, so I decided to follow Fermes' words.

When I left Kamadu cabin, Donda-Lu and the others were already relative to both names of Gerd. Giza-Lou and Rudd-Lou had a huge giva hanging around with their legs on Grigi's stick.

"I'm Donda-Lou, one of the three chiefs by the woods. You are the blood of the head of the mountain people."

The two names, respectively, had given their identities and names. Nanaquem is about the same back length as Donda-Lou, and Alvach is about half a head bigger than that. When they turned to each other like that, it was like that would tighten the air.

"A former compatriot, a great sin, worked. Words of apology, let me state."

"For that, I heard you went out of your way to get away from Sim's land.... We, too, used to have brothers committing a great sin outside their homeland. Your thoughts seem painfully understandable."

Neither expensive nor frightened, Donda-Lou responded that way in a quiet voice.

"And now that the great sinners have been executed, there is no reason to resent you. Let's accept the words of apology. If I can tie the right edge in the future, I'd appreciate it."

"Forestside chiefs, warmth, thank you.... and an apology item, I want you to take it"

Now Nanaqem took the ornament out of his nostalgia.

Fermes speaks from the side to Donda-Lou, who whisks his eyebrows.

"This seems to be Gerd's clan manoeuvre. If you reject the apology item, it will be a statement of intent that you have not yet forgiven the other person, so please accept it?

"... the nobility of Genos, too, received this?

Melfried nodded "um" to Donda-Lou's inquiry.

"The Marquis of Genos was also given silver ornaments. And then there are the families threatened by the great sinners, each preparing a gift. If you're willing to accept Gerd's clan apology, I want you to accept it."

"... then there must be something wrong"

Donda-Lou seemed to have received it. It seems to be a silver necklace with a truly refined workmanship.

"Can you also acknowledge that other clans receive apologies as forest chiefs?

"There is no reason for the others to say no, even though the house of Lou received it.... Tell him so."

The second half was a word directed at me, so I say yes and I nod.

Fermes smiled satisfactorily.

"So what about Fa's share of the house? Would you like to give it to Asta today?

To Fermes' words, Alvach shook his head "No".

"Parents, if you value, if you learn, let's follow it, I think. Earlier, sudden acts, I'm sorry, I think"

"Yes, no. Not at all. Thank you so much for weighing in on the Forestside lesson."

When I answered that, Alvach looked at me with blue eyes.

He is such a strong, shimmering blue eye that he can't beat Ai-Fa or Donda-Lou.

"Asta, one thing, I want to wish for, I do"

"Yes, what is it?

"Tomorrow night, dinner, both, I want to wish"

I was supposed to be surprised.

Fermes looks up at Alvach's giant with a strangely floating face.

"Suddenly, what happened? Interest in Asta has finally grown, does that mean?

"Um. By the woods, cooking skills, told, asta, listening. The dish was as incomplete as it had just been, but the power of certainty, felt. Asta, how skilled, I want to know, I wish"

"So you want to invite Asta to Castle Town,?

Alvach shook his head, "No," again.

"Asta, footwork, intent, no. We, the settlement by the woods, are going to visit, so I want to have dinner at Fa's house, with us."

"Si, the nobles of Sim are asking you to have dinner at Fa's house?

When I accidentally questioned him, Alvach tilted his successful neck slightly.

"Lord Melfried, supper, served, listening. Are we doing the same thing, are we crazy?

"Yes, no... With the approval of the parents and the chiefs, nothing is different..."

When I turned my gaze, Donda-Lou snorted "Hmm."

"As a chief, I'm not going to argue differently. Tell that to the bigoted fa parents, too."

"I understand, sir. Just now, let me tell you."

Then Fermes looked up at Melfried's length, smiling with a smile.

"Then we have nothing else to accompany you as a seer, too. You can't just leave the nobles of Sims in a forest settlement, can you?

"... that's undeniable."

Melfried has looked at me since I responded with a cold voice.

"But we are only spectators. You don't have to go through all that trouble."

"No, as I said before, if you're going to be on the spot, it would be more comforting to eat with us."

"Right," Melfried said expressionlessly.

But I don't even look slightly sorry.

"Then," Fermes embarked on himself.

"Asta, I have a favor to ask of you too... could you prepare a meat-free dish, even if it's one of a kind? I haven't spoken of Asta's cooking in over a month."

It would certainly be more than a month since it was only at the first welcoming dinner that Fermes mouthed my dish. It was very unsettling to be able to turn a sweet gaze on Fermes.

"Is a dinner by the woods something that eats the same thing and shares the same joy? So I'm not going to tell you to go seafood with me. [M] I just wish you could prepare just one item... how about that?

"Wow, I get it. Including that, we'll talk to the parents."

Fermes let his face shine.

It is as if it were a maiden's expression given a bouquet of flowers by the person in her mind. Of course, I had a nagging back.

"Well, let's be rude with this today. Sudden visit, excuse me"

and Melfried nodded with him.

There, the voice "please wait" sounds. Looking back, Rayna-Lew had just revealed herself from Kamado's cabin.

Raina-Lou pays tribute to his father and nobles before moving forward in Alvach.

"Um, thank you for all your feedback today. Thanks to you, I think I see the way to a delicious dish."

"... if there is anything, power, I am fortunate"

Alvach is as faceless as ever.

But on the face of Raina-Lou looking up to it seemed to be a heartfelt, dear grin.

◇

"... so you're talking about welcoming the nobles to Fa's house tomorrow night?

As I had imagined, the Ey-Fa reaction was not very fragrant.

In the house of Pha, which encloses dinner with Kamua-Josh and Leyt. Moving forward with the meal, Ai-Fa seemed grumpy while the hair-upside-down Bobcat.

"I didn't know I had to welcome you not only to Sim's nobility, but even to that Fermes house of Fa... isn't it a disaster?"

"Disaster is a lot of things again. Does Ai-Fa hate you so much, Jen Fermez?

This one was safely put on at Fa's house dinner, so the satisfied Camua-Josh asks. "Naturally," said Ai-Fa.

"Isn't it about Mel Fried that you want to welcome? Disgruntled, unscrupulous."

"Huh? If you're alone, Mel Fried, do you think you'd be welcome?

When Camua-Josh asked overlapping, Ai-Fa looked back at you looking troublesome.

"I don't want to invite unwanted guests because supper is what shares joy with my family. But that Mel Fried... seems to have a much preferred mood for nobility. If it's just him, I can't be angry."

"Heh, I didn't know Ai-Fa didn't hate Melfrid that much. I wish they thought the same thing about me, but I wonder what's going on around there?

"... what I prefer is a sedentary personality who doesn't freshly make a fuss. All you have to do is ask your chest."

"Right. Ah. Then the next time I visit Fa's house, I guess I'll call on Melfried too."

Camua-Josh rubbed a miso tailored cream stew with a slight laugh. What looks a bit like a weepy face is his habit when he mouths delicious dishes.

"But, well, isn't Gerd's lid a favorite of Ey-Fa's? Anyway, it's the people of the east, so it's origami about deposition."

"... Weren't the people of the mountains talking about their impatience?

"Yeah, but I've never set foot in Gerd's territory, so I've only seen a bunch of bandits running wild in the West. And that would be the same for many other western people. I mean, I guess the distractions of the mountain people are still the kind of rumors derived from the existence of outlaws like that."

That being said, Camua-Josh smiled with pleasure.

"I do think it would be a lot more brave temperament compared to the people of the meadows and such. But the two of you I saw today knew how to keep it inside. I dare say...... I wonder if they are close to the people of the northern settlements"

"Northern settlement? You mean Zaza or Dom or Gene?

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. In it, there would have been a larger, younger hunter of the body than Graf-Zaza? He seems quite similar to the people of the mountains."

Of all the things Camua-Josh knew, there was nothing else besides Dick-Dom that applied to that condition. Dick-Dom was accompanied as an escort when confronting Cycleus and others.

"In the first place, Donda-Lou wouldn't have admitted their offer so lightly, either, if he had felt something dangerous to Gerd's clan. Asta, don't you think?

"Right. As soon as Donda-Lou looked up, I thought they decided they weren't enemies."

"Yeah, yeah. In other words, the Gerd clan resembles the people by the woods. It's like hunting a muffled bear in a mountain, so I guess there's a part of it that goes through the hunter."

"... so the problem is that Fermes is alone"

I = fa grabbed the spare rib flavored grill and bit it off rampantly. Your mood has not recovered this way.

"Even Fermes isn't dangerous, is he? Well, you're not going to be a good match for the people by the forest."

"... if he wasn't obsessed with Asta, he wouldn't have to be so vigilant with me."

"Oh, the way you cook for Asta, you poor maiden."

Ai-fa's grumpy eyes are fixed under me.

I turned to Camua-Josh so I could get away from it.

"How did Camua know that? Speaking of which, even when Donda-Lou and Gerd's people were talking, you weren't supposed to be there, were you?

"Behind me, I was sneaking up on you. Donda-Lou and the others must have noticed because they didn't kill any signs."

Then whose eyes were you peeking at?

When I thought about it that way, I remembered my suspicions during the day.

"Speaking of which, what does Camus think of Fermes? Interesting, is there anything else you think?

"Hmm? Come on, what do you think? You can't think of many other words that are interesting."

While stating so, Camua-Josh has a much clearer look.

"Well, one thing I think... is that he is someone who combines a very similar part with me and a completely different part. So I'm sure... maybe it's not very compatible."

"... about Fermes, do you hate him?

"No, that's not true. At least not at this stage. It's just... if we get too close, we don't know what that will do either. You feel like you're going to end up in both extremes, whether you're willing to be your best friend, or you're going to end up with an enemy who can't even wear the same heaven."

After stating it that way, Camua-Josh smiled fluffily.

"I was able to meet important people as much as I could. I don't want to get one of my best friends until I make one or eight bets. If I think about it, I wonder if I should stay away from the groans."

"... I don't even think about us wanting to get close to someone like that."

Ey-fa was discarding her lips that way, looking like she was about to lose them.

Either way, Fermes will be here tomorrow. Besides, it's Sim's privilege. I hope the obsession that exists between us is dissolved at all - all as the forest and the gods will. As far as I'm concerned, I had to do everything in my power to create a dish that would please both my beloved parents and guests.
