148 Episode 41: The Preliminary Part Of The Festival Of Kindness
"Hey, hey.... Yeah, I guess this is it"
The next day after my inspection with Emperor Lukeheim, I was dressed in my room.
The clothes we are wearing today are not the usual knight clothes one-piece dresses, but plain and qualitative clothes like the ones worn by the civilians. I put on my hat to hide my hair even more and look in the mirror.
"It's been a long time since you've worn clothes for sneaking..."
Today was the day to head out to Castle Town with the patience I've been waiting for. I went out to Castle Town yesterday on an inspection, but it's been a long time since I've had any patience, so I'm looking forward to it.
Then I heard knocking on the room. Go ahead, and when I spoke to the door, it was Uffi who came inside.
Yuffi also hatted that long silver hair today and wore it in a qualitative piece. Are you wearing Dada glasses to change your impression?
"Anis, are you ready?
"Yeah! Of course!
To Yufi's inquiry I return with a full grin. Then Yufi smiled at me so that I could be caught, too.
"It's been a long time since you've been out with patience."
"Right. Yesterday I went down to Castle Town on an inspection with Emperor Lukeheim, but I still want to walk around on my own feet and look around!
The festival is only about walking on your own, after all! Nevertheless, it's been a long time since my position and that of Uffi have changed, and patience itself.
Above all, I'm happy to be able to go out with Uffi. When I thought so and saw Uffi's face, Uffi smiled and offered me his hand, too.
Let's go, then.
"Yeah!"
Reply to Uffi, who spoke to me to ask me out, and hold the hand he offered me. Keep your hands together, we left the palace behind.
Try to stay away, turn the opposite side of the royal castle before entering the castle town. The festival is the second day, but the buzz was no worse than the first day.
A stall lined up with people to go out with. Voices echo calling in merchants' guests, and travelers perform their art at the corner of the square.
From time to time, I could see the children with their parents and children chewing deliciously at the street snacks in their hands, laughing brightly, their lovers and two thoughtfully young people watching the open-air accessories, and seeing such a sight there.
"Wow, it's so busy... actually walking would be awesome"
"Yeah, it's something you don't care about when you're traveling in a carriage, but when you walk, you feel people are overflowing."
Yuffi, who was watching the festival's noise over his glasses, says emotionally. The King's Capital is one of the flourishing towns in the Kingdom of Palettia, but this is the first time it's been so busy.
The sense of accomplishment boils down if we think that that is the result of the reforms and measures we have put in place. Nature and grin, but you can't enjoy the festival just watching.
"Shall we pick a snack first? I haven't eaten anything in the morning."
I asked Ilia if she would like to eat something in the morning, but she said no. Because I really wanted to fill my stomach with festival stalls! It's something you can't usually eat, so don't worry!
"I don't mind. Do you want to take a look around the stall first"
"Right!
Travel to match the waves of those who go and go alongside Uffi. A good smell tickles my nose from the area of the stall dealing with food.
Although time is a little too late from the original breakfast time, many people travel to buy meals. I can't decide just to look away.
There was a stall in the middle of it that caught my eye. The item sold is a copepan sandwich. The meat of the ingredients is cooked on the spot and sandwiched in the bread with the vegetables stored in the refrigerator.
"Oh, this is going to be easy to eat. Excuse me, two of these, please!
"Aye!
Ozzie replies happily with a dazzling smile when she takes the order. Receive two copepan sandwiches that pinch the ingredients quickly and get paid.
"Yes, Uffi"
"Thank you, Anis"
One received copepan sandwich, hand it to Uffi and then wear it while holding the copepan sandwich in one hand.
Sauce tangled in meat tastes good again. The flavour of the vegetables spreads the texture and refreshment in my mouth so that it doesn't get too hard, and the slight sweetness of the bread enhances the flavour of the ingredients.
Yeah, this is honestly delicious! That's what I thought I was eating, and I saw Yuffi carefully sipping and circling his eyes.
"... this is delicious"
"Well, it's rare to say that Yuffi is delicious in a meal"
"It was quite a while ago, but you say it's very sophisticated compared to what I've eaten in Castle Town before..."
"Isn't that about two years ago? Sometimes it's a festival, but I think the cookware is growing and the overall quality of the dishes is improving."
"So is that. I can't say this is a meal for aristocrats either...... but it's good to be eaten easily. When the clerk is busy, he can finish his meal with this..."
"Euphie?"
Another bite, I ate a copepan sandwich and pressed Yuffi's nose with my fingers as I conceived.
Yufi, who was pressed in the nose, leaned back only slightly, but immediately frowned and corrected his posture.
"Ugh, I'm not talking about your job right now. And eat your meals slowly."
"... you're half done eating anise."
"This kind of thing is good! Snacks!
When I say that, Uffi goes ahead with the meal with the face that he is not convinced. The ingredients that seem to stain my hands are pinched in bread, so the two of us walk slowly as they are.
Coppepan sandwiches were an easy size to eat, but this isn't enough for a bit. The next thing I noticed was the roasting of a bottle of stuffed meat.
Frankfurt when it comes to festivals of previous life, such memories came back unexpectedly. With nostalgia, I laid down my next aim for intestinal meat.
"Mr. Ozzie! Two, please!
"Maido!...... hmm? You, like I saw you somewhere...?
"It's my fault!
Misunderstood Ozi for trying to take my face seriously and receive the intestinal stuffed meat stabbed in the skewer. Chew your share as you go.
It makes good teeth and sounds and the taste of meat spreads all over my mouth. It's a good salt addition, just because the gravy is a little hot, the fu breathes.
"Yeah! This is good too! Yes, this. Yufi's share!
"Wait, I haven't finished my earlier bread..."
Uffi was almost done eating half the copepan sandwich. I'm eating it with my little mouth holding it with both hands, but it kind of reminded me of a hamster.
My cheeks loosen up on Uffi like that, but I get a prank heart and offer Uffi's share of intestinal stuffed meat to Uffi's mouth.
"Look, it's delicious. Ahem."
"... anise"
"Uh?
……
Yuffi frowns like Yuffi was bewildered when he saw the intestinal meat offered to me, but immediately opens his mouth and carries the intestinal meat to his mouth as he gave up.
A small bite, but a yuffy that makes a good sound like the sound I made and chews a thousand. At that moment, after Yufi opened her eyes, she meditated on her eyes.
And heh, heh, his mouth is opening and closing to try to let the heat escape. My hands are blocked by a near-eating copepad, but the trick of those hands shaking in small pieces up and down is adorable again.
"… Ahhh, …"
"Pu... ku, hehe...!
"... anise"
"Oh, I'm sorry......! But, look, it's delicious, isn't it?
I caught a few eyes, Yufi, but I see a slight pearlescent color on my cheeks, which makes me laugh even more. Just seeing such a cute Uffi is enough to make you feel better.
That's how I laughed, Zito eyed Yufi re-grabbing Coppepan with one hand and grabbing my shoulder with one empty hand. When I was able to keep my strength from moving, Yufi said more than half of the stuffed meat I had stuck in my bowels.
"Ah!"
"... right, it's delicious, isn't it? The Eating of Anis"
Chewed the intestinal stuffed meat of those I was eating and swallowed it before Yufi smiled. At that time, it was provocative to lick the pepper lips, and the fever unwittingly rises on my cheeks.
I dyed my cheeks on Yuffi's good look. Oh, how dare you...! Too much in return for fun......!
"Eat your share...! I ate more than half!
"Right. Enjoy my meal, as I am satisfied."
"That's what I do...!
I chew my teeth unintentionally on Yufi, who started eating copepan with a strange face. I have no choice but to quickly eat the intestinal meat that Yuffi stuffed both ways.
Indirect kissing, I'm not very conscious. If you're conscious, it's what Yufi thinks...!
"You're a little thirsty. Oh, Anis. Watermelon juice is sold."
"Hmm? Oh, it's true"
When I threw the finished skewers in the trash, Yuffi caught his eye on the watermelon juice sold in the stalls.
I was thirsty too, so I bought watermelon juice for two. However, this juice was in the form of a sale where I would drink it in front of the store and return the vessel to the store.
I don't have a disposable container yet, so I don't know what else to do. Though such containers may also be in demand once the festival is thriving......
"Mmm, you're cold a lot. This."
"Yeah, it's refreshing and delicious"
Watermelon juice is very cold and easy to drink. Slight sweetness and a good chill make it feel refreshing.
"I keep the pulp and water cool before I juice it. Thanks to the refrigerator."
"It's good that even street snacks can now serve cold food, aren't they becoming popular?
"Ha ha, you said it was hard to wash the vessel because of you!
My brother in the street laughs while making watermelon juice in the mixer. Then my brother offered me a watermelon that he stabbed on a small skewer.
"Here you go, too, with the service"
"Huh?"
"... if you enjoy it, we'll both be happy, Dear Anisphere."
My brother whispered to me. And I'm going to have a wink full of tea. Ugh, I knew someone would figure it out.
Still, the fact that you lurked my voice is a testament to the fact that we're walking around with patience. While I receive the watermelon that it is a service, I return my thanks.
"Did you find out"
"Well, yeah. Those of you who know the boulder will know."
Yuffi asks me to confirm it in a whisper away from the stall. I also reply to Uffi with my shoulders flattered.
"But you've lurked your voice, and you've been a good one"
"Right. Yes, Uffi. Watermelon."
Hand Yufi a watermelon stabbed in the skewer. If you think Uffi received it, he didn't carry it in his own mouth, he carried it to my mouth.
"Yes, uh"
"... Isn't that too much fun to give back?
"Aren't you going to eat?
…………
To Yuffi, who laughs and asks Nico, I eat a bite of the watermelon offered by Yuffi, frowning.
The limp pulp collapses so that it can be unraveled in your mouth. Sweetness spreads in my mouth with a different texture than when I'm juicing.
But as opposed to the sobriety in your mouth, the fever on your cheeks stays up.
"... Yes, Uffi. Ahem."
"Yes, I'll take it"
Offer Uffi the watermelon he had with the intent of whispering retribution. I ate a watermelon in one bite, just like I did, and broke my cheek.
"That's sweet"
"Yeah, it's limp and easy to eat"
"It was a refrigerator that I was paying attention to in terms of preserving food, but it also seems to be helping to widen the range of dishes"
"Oh, yeah. Then you have that one, don't you? Ice confectionery!"
"Sounds like it, do you want to look?
"Yeah! Let's go!
Think of the next product you want to buy and I try to move on. Uffi takes my hand like that and tangles my fingers.
I was a little surprised to see Uffi's face, but Uffi smiles calmly and looks at me. I, too, naturally cheeked loose and shook back the hand Yufi had been holding.
We've only just begun our patience.
