302 When They Watered The Festival.
302 When They Watered The Festival.
Strom is a city with a good mix of major cities in Ishtarika.
Now merchants are pushing from all over the continent, especially with the duration of the festival.
"- Speaking of which, what happened to the Ist Trading Chamber?
"Well, Mr. Graff is giving me a glimpse."
"... looks like a lot of business and spicy."
"The Ist Chamber of Commerce directly channelled funds to the Institute of Paleontology. I didn't know you were coming through."
In Ain's hand, laughing like trouble, is a skewer I bought at the nightclub. The potato sauce draped over the cobblestone as it emitted a fragrant scent.
The boulevard crowd is out of step with the usual Strom. But Ain and Chris walk shoulder-to-shoulder between people in a light form.
"What will happen to that problem after all..."
"Hmm, isn't it the only way to be?
"Oh, that? It's a lot lighter."
Wearing a robe hood deep, Chris looks up at Ain and says.
"I knew I was coming! I didn't know what to say."
"Exactly... Because I feel strongly about doing it, but there are so many other important things."
Mainly the reign of Strom, but you can't do the same as you did when you were a Red Fox.
Maybe it's quicker for Ain to take Marco and the Cains around looking...
I can't afford it right now.
The only way to be is to leave yourself to it, not to be a throw.
I strained my lips under the hood and cheeked the skewers to change my mood.
"Lately, I've figured out how to increase my strength if I have to, do you care?
"... you mean that busty man-eater?
"Oh, haha... well, I don't know... yeah, I'm a good kid with an array"
As for kindness, I can't wait to follow him (her).
In a stand-up the other day, Ein also knows that Chris understood Maneater's character well, but he's just a little distorted in character.
- Whoa, I'm sorry, brother.
"Fine."
Two, a traveler-like man and Ain hit his shoulder.
Chris looks back at the man as he stares and asks him to worry about Ain immediately.
"You're not hurt or anything, are you? Are you all right, sir?
"It's okay, it's okay. And then... I think it's time to come back, but oh, look"
"Yes?...... what!? Duh, how did this flower get here......!?
"He's a surprisingly good kid. You took back my sullied purse, didn't you?
From Ain's collar, a man-eater appeared in an upbeat mood.
Peppingly dropping Ain's purse added to his mouth, he puts Ain on hand, '- hiccup' and smiles skillfully and disappears.
Ain chuckled at Maneater's good job when he checked the contents of his wallet.
"Were you sucked?!? Then get that guy right away.
"I think that's all right, too."
I took her hand, and Ain said with her voice down.
"- Because"
"Oh, I'm sorry. I can't hear you in people's voices... can I do it again?
"Sorry, erm..."
Then Ain puts his face closer to Chris' ear.
You're even wearing a hood in the first place, so it's hard to hear and obvious,
"Look, 'cause the maneater came up with good stuff the other way around"
When they say it near my ear, it even transmits and illuminates my breath and voice vibrations.
Chris suppressed his ears near Ain with a hazy look and stepped back in a agile move.
"Yeah... how did you escape..."
"Shh, soot...... sorry! Do you still say the load is too heavy for me...... ugh! but I'll work hard and get used to it......!
"No, no, no, I'm not sure what you're talking about... look, I'm the one with the good stuff"
"... paper?
Chris opens Ein's hand-delivered paper with a slight tremor in his slightly red-dyed hands.
"Room number in the room? Well, this paper is a refrain from lodging."
"Oh, so I sent this paper to someone along the way... oh, there he is"
Noticed a knight standing right around the corner, Ain approaching with Chris.
"Can I have a word?
"Hmm? What can I do for you?
The knight noticed the pair in the robe, but he still doesn't know what's in it with Ain and Chris.
"See who's staying in this room later. Maybe he's a sleigh habitual criminal who stole something from his room."
"... I suddenly have trouble being told that. And if there's no proof whatsoever..."
"I was an active criminal. Chris, right?
"Yeah, you're the current killer."
"K, Chris...? What if you two... ugh!?
Put your index finger on your mouth, and laugh at Ain as you say it.
Gently showed the knight the contents of the robe, and Chris next door imitated it and showed his face.
"Excuse me! No way, my lord."
"Don't tell me about me and Chris because of your patience. Okay?"
"... I apologize for overlapping. Now as soon as possible, we will send knights to the appropriate accommodation!
"Yeah, I'm busy, but I asked for it"
Looking at the back of the departing knight, Ain drops him off with a loose tone.
Then Chris had a soft grin and opened his mouth in a good mood.
"Now for one thing, you've done your job despite your patience. Phew."
"I meant this from the beginning, didn't I? I was only going to visit the nightclub."
"Haha - yes. You know more about the latter than anyone else, don't you?
Chris smiles happily again when he sees Ain pointing his lips.
I guess I couldn't come up with an objection. He waves up to dissatisfaction and rubs Chris' hood into strength.
"Wow... hey, hey! What are you suddenly doing!?
"I felt somewhat beat by Chris and I just regretted it a little"
"Did you do it again because you regretted it..."
"Okay! Let's go to another store!
"Oh, wait! Please don't leave me alone!
- Then how many nightclubs would I have gone around?
The two give up counting along the way and just wholeheartedly enjoy the festive strum.
Besides the food, I enjoyed the festive atmosphere using my entire body, such as a little smelly store in the open air.
Honestly, it's still not enough.
The sense of distance between the two, conveyed without words, narrowed to the point where nature and the back of the hand overlapped.
But something happened to water the festival.
I saw the clock when the two of us were about to go home, some time after dinner...
"Oh, hey! Isn't that a bad idea?
"Somebody get me a knight!
It's a noise. That's not the unique noise of the festival, but the unpleasant voice that makes you feel swordswallowed air.
"... is something wrong?"
Chris looked at the voice.
Then Ain notices the cause of the noise before she does.
"Sure, I don't like that."
"Dear Ein? What the hell?"
"A rich man is poking a knife at a little girl"
"What... I'm not talking about a bad place!
Rather than being rich, what is it?
Before putting in the scratch, Chris stared at the direction as well.
The man poking the knife did come with good quality clothes, and Chris guessed the man's position from the outfit.
"Merchant, is it"
"I think so. Let's get close."
"Yes, I understand"
Neither did the surrounding horses stir up the man, staring worryingly at the girl being caught.
"Can you help me if I have to?
Naturally, to stop a man.
"No, there's nothing I can do to help, because I can't do it, can I, Ein? Because Ein is supposed to be protected."
"... it feels a little mummy to be protected, Rikai"
The crowd keeps a circular distance from the merchant man.
Ein and Chris both got mixed up in that crowd and watched what happened.
