Lucia, with the look of an ogre, came on board to the Yodamari-tei.
　What are you doing, emptying your territory?

"Gilberta! Are you safe?"
"It's all right, I'm all right. There's nothing wrong with me.

　Lucia runs into the store and runs straight up to Gilberta for a violent hug.
　It's a bone‐churning hug.
　If you look at it from a different perspective, it's a bit like mackerel.

"But why, Lucia, here, Lucia.
"I received a letter from Estella's messenger, and I was informed of the details."

　Lucia pulls a letter from her pocket bearing the family crest of Estella. There were clear marks of crushing with tremendous force. It's all over the place.
　The letter Estella sent to her by super express using a fast horse must have been a bad one.
　It seems that you delivered it really quickly.
　I didn't expect it to bring me in to-day, but...

"Have you worried me, sir.
"Of course! How much did I hurt you?"

　Lucia hugs Gilberta as if to bury her face in her hair.
　The ending of the word is husky, and I can feel the sadness.

"I apologize from the bottom of my heart. It wasn't until I was pointed out that I had gone through the wrong process that I had to do, stupid me."
"All right. ... That's enough. If only you had been safe in this way."
"I think I misjudged the order of the important things,"
"Well... you're straight, and you're a little too honest." You may take the wrong path."

　Lucia hugs Gilberta and adheres to him as if she were making up for what she missed. He's rubbing his cheeks and smelling his hair. You know, pervert!

"The letter from the messenger told me that you had come here alone and the reason for it."

　Lucia reaches for Gilberta's antennae, saying so.
　But Gilberta skilfully avoids it. After all, there seems to be no way to let them touch it without permission.

"When I read the letter, I understood... that the anchovy was all that was wrong!"
"Why is that so!"

　Well, I thought it would happen!
　The reason why Gilberta came here was written in detail, right? Did you read it properly?

"Whatever the reason may be, Gilberta or those whom I like, I will lay the blame on the one whom I don't like!"
`Don't be so proud of yourself!'

　Scared! He's really scared!
　I'm scared in a completely different way from what Estella meant!

"It's not bad for my friend, Jiro."

　Gilberta quietly cuts in front of me to protect me from the unreasonable gaze of Lucia, who has no dignity or snobbery. be sheltered by a small but stout back

"Well... you know?"
"Yes, we became friends, me and my friend, Jiro. So does my friend Jeanette."

　A sharp glance shoots through me.
　Don't look at me with fright.

"Don't speak ill of my friend."
"...I see,"

　Lucia's hand is strained and her fist is clenched.
　Guilberta's candid words would have to admit them.

"Well, let's say I hit you in silence."

　I don't admit anything, what about him!?

"Then I don't think it's a problem, either,"
"Don't think!"

　There are so many problems!

"I suppose that your entreaties caused Gilberta to go out without permission!"
"It's not my fault!"
"And who is to blame!"

　Wasn't that all written in the letter!?
　I'm afraid you're reading it off to your advantage. oh, my God."I don't think so.

"My grandmother told me to take good care of my friends, so I put my friends before my lord!"
"Do you mean you are more important than me!"
"That's why! I've worked so hard to explain it to you! I don't think I'm going to have such an extreme idea.

　He soothes Lucia as she approaches him and turns her eyes to Gilberta.
　Gilberta clearly agrees as we stare at him.

"Yes. I understood it well after hearing it. I won't misjudge important things, from now on."
"Well..."

　Lucia, who breathes a sigh of relief and keeps her distance from me.
　In any case, this will solve the mess. Lucia brings Gilberta home, and the story of her stay will go out.
　A peaceful night is coming back to the Yodamari-tei.

"I'm the best."

　Suddenly Gilberta presses his chest and says something like that.
　As soon as I did... Why did I... I began to feel unpleasant sweat oozing down my back.

My friend Jiro is second. My friend Jeanette is number three...

　I point my finger at Jeanette and finally Lucia.

"Fourth most important, Lucia,"
"Anchovy!"
"Why are you mad at me?"

　Lucia, who is now separated, attacks again.
　Oh, I'm so tired!

"But I'll do my job properly. That's my mental ranking."
"I don't care about my duties, so raise my mind!"
"No, I don't care about my duties..."What... It doesn't matter at all, but the future of the 35 wards has become very uneasy.
　Estella. Say something as the same lord... and he immediately turned a blind eye on me.

"Good evening~" Hey, is there a palmro?"

　A new visitor appears at the Yodomari-tei, which is completely swept away by chaos.
　It's a chicken face, a nephery, who is doing well even at night.

"Wow... a pretty person..."

　When I see Lucia standing in the store, I mutter that Neferry has fallen.
　Then he turns his eyes to Gilberta and says, "Oh, big breasts...."

"Yasilo, when did you get to know such a beautiful woman and a giant breast?"

　"Beautiful ""To"" giant breasts are all about miso, aren't they?
　She's not a beautiful woman.

"Well... the inhabitants of the Forty-two wards, whose conversation begins with the story of breast."
"Oh, Mr. Gilberta!? Oh, that's a misunderstanding...?"

　Jeanette is working hard to prevent the 42 wards from turning into a "baby town." But he seems to be losing some confidence.

"It's anchovy," Who the heck is it, you know.

　Lucia's keen gaze makes Neferry cringe.
　a frightened look on Lucia's face

　From Lucia's back comes a dignified aura.

"What is the most beautiful woman in the world with animal features?"
"You don't hesitate at all at the moment when you turn to your hobby." I respect you a little bit."

　The aura surrounding Lucia turned slightly pink in an instant. I felt...

"Cute! Cute!"

　That's why I'm not going to do that.

"The girl I want to marry is number one this term!"
"What!? Me!"

　Apparently, it has risen to the top of Lucia's rankings.
　Wow~ I can't feel how amazing it is at all~

"What should I do, Jiro? What should I do?"
"No, if you ask me..."

　Why don't we get married?
　In that case, Percy will develop a convulsive love story.

"Why don't you give me a Tosaka, and I'm afraid you'll give me a Tosaka!"
"Oh, no, no, no, here's a problem here!"
"Don't say so!"
"Well, my dear, palm-ro. What on earth is this person!?"
"He is the lord of the thirty-five wards."
"What!?"

　My beak opens with a "packer."
　That's surprising, isn't it? If only the lord of the ward, well above the forty-two wards, had offended the pervert here. Yeah, everyone is surprised, and if you feel danger, you'll get about three blows.

"Oh! Why do you keep gathering so many amazing people!"
"Don't ask me,"
"Now, I mean, Jiro was born under a star with a steady stream of great people around him."
"Don't do that, seriously..."

　Don't put that into words. I'm afraid I'll be under a curse.
　It's a curse that troubles come in droves from over there.
　You're saying that you can't make fun of the spirit.

"It's anchovy,"

　Lucia approaches me with a puff.

"What is it to call a young maiden at midnight like this!"
"I didn't call you,"
"What if a pervert catches your eye!"
"I think you've just noticed it here,"

　The referee came at a bad time, didn't he?

　Oh, Gilberta.
　Your lord has been exposing his misdeeds, but don't you have to stop him?
　Why don't you do it because you haven't told me? You're a modern boy!

"The maiden of Tosaka," You shouldn't come to such a man at this time of day. It's a matter of course if mistakes happen."
"Oh, really!? Jiro and I... ...don't you have any, do you?"

　No, I don't. I don't think so.
　So will you not stare at me like a chicken? Don't blink regularly.

"But... be careful on the road at night." It is true that the Neferry is a weak maiden."
"He...?"

　He was leaking a sound as if the air had leaked, and his face was red, and his beak was open, perhaps because of lack of oxygen. ...isn't it really leaking, is it, air?"

"Yah... Jiro looked at me like that... did you?"

　Hmm?
　What are you talking about?
　with a chicken face

　Though a race of beasts, the referee is not strong.
　In terms of combat power, it's not much different from mine. In other words, it can be said to be the bottom of the 42 wards. ... I'm sorry, at the bottom!? Who's at the bottom, at all...

"And why are you here? Do you want anything?"
"Oh, yes. I'm a bodyguard today."
"Bodyguard?"I was told to look around, but I was not accompanied by a referee.

"Who did you bring?"
"What? Oh, there's no one!? Why?"

　a glancing referee
　Did you think I was following you? You're not acting as a bodyguard, are you?

"That's strange," I was talking to him at the store and he said, 'I want to go to Yodamari-tei.' Isn't it dangerous when it's dark? Especially, she's small. There are no shiny bricks in that neighborhood."

　Neferry moves on, looking about. Say the subject.
　However, it is sufficient to have that much information.
　That's why you didn't come into the store. There must have been someone I didn' ... I can't help it, shall I pick you up?

　I passed between Neferry and Lucia, passed by Estella and Natalia, who were sitting back in the chair nearby again, and opened the door.
　When I got out into the garden, the sky was already dim and the bricks were beginning to shine brightly.

"Hey,"
"What!"

　A little girl hid herself behind a tree in the garden of the Yodamari-tei.

"Millie, I'm not scared, come in."
"Ah... Mr. Tento-mushi... I'm surprised."

　There was a stranger, and Milly was probably too scared to come in.
　You weren't shy yet, were you?

"Well... the people inside..."
"It's not much of a bunch," He is the lord of the thirty-five wards and the head waiter there. It's like Estella and Natalia, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Well, they're just a lot of people..."

　Is that so?
　He's all perverted, all of them?"

"Oh, anchovy!"
"Oh, dear ladybug!"

　I'm gently talking to her to calm her down... Lucia, who couldn't read the air, shouted and violently opened the door, and Milly clung to me in surprise. You're on the verge of tears, aren't you?

"Huh? A ladybug?"
"What? Or, Katakuchi, sardine...?"

　Well, I don't care.

"What, Lucia? Don't scare me."
"What's wrong with leaving your seat in the middle of the conversation? Go back!"

　You've been off the track on that subject, haven't you?

"By the way, who is that little girl?"
"Huh? Oh, he's..."
"Oh, Milly. I was there."

　Neferry came out from behind Lucia just as I was going to introduce her to me.
　Hearing the voice of Neferry, Milly looks over my shoulder. A large ladybug's hair ornament swings over my head.
　The two antennae also twitch accordingly.

"The girl I want to marry is number one this term!"
"Oh!? I'm down in the rankings!?"

　Neferry, which had been number one up until just now, was down in the rankings.
　As with Gilberta... Do people in the 35th Ward even have townspeople who can only see what's in front of them? They don't have to be considerate of the people around them.

"Anchovy! Give me that pretty girl!"
"What? I'm losing respect for you every second..."

　Estella's previous information is not reliable at all.
　and Lucia, if she lived in the Forty-second Ward, wouldn't her heart burst in less than three days?

"This is the flower specialist I talked about the other day."
"Oh, you," ... Well, I know. The pure heart that loves flowers seems to be on his face. That's too cute!"

　The last word will ruin you.
　Until the middle of it, I thought the viewer would understand that. This guy just wants to compliment Milly. He has only the ummallow level of judgment in the face of Magda.
　In other words, anything is fine if it's cute.

"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
"Oh, there's a flower garden in the Thirty-Fifth Ward where you can drink delicious honey."
"What!?"

Milly reacts unusually sensitively to the word 'flower garden.'

"Well... I'd like to see it."Hanazono.........

　stare dreamily into the air with a blank face with one's hands on one's
　It's unusual for Milly to look like this.
　A flower garden full of various flowers may be a paradise for Milly.

"I hope you'll come and see me."
"But... the Thirty-Fifth Ward is a long way off."
"To-morrow these people are coming to the Thirty-Fifth Ward. Then you may come with me in the carriage."
"Well... but...."

　A glimpse of me, Milly.
　As far as his eyes are concerned, he is sure to want to go and see.

"Can you take a day off work tomorrow?"
"Oh, my gosh, oh, my gosh. I can ask the guild to replace me... but...""Why don't we go together? Me, Jeanette, Estella, and the four of us?"
"...what?"
"Of course,"

　When I say it, Jeanette nods softly. Next to it is Estella smiling.
　Estella's carriage holds four people. This time Lucia has been given the condition of "small numbers." I'm going to leave Natalia behind.
　We can secure space for millies.

　I don't mind getting on your knees at all right. Milly will be all right.
　No, rather actively there...

"I'll start the carriage. Sit as far away as possible from these anchovies in the car. I'm afraid I'llies."
"Who's the b*tc*, you know?"

　I won't forgive you even if you're a lord. No, I didn't do it from the beginning, but I don't hesitate to skip any more. I can't bear the brunt of a fight like this.

"That's why it's anchovy,"

　Lucia's expression becomes firm and begins to let loose the lord's dignity.
　A sharp, sharp look is directed at me.

"Let's bring Wentan too!"
"Your dignity is ruined!"

　How much did you like it, Wendy?

"To-morrow I should like to see the man whom I shall be able to see you." A sub-American who is trying to marry a human being... ...and, by the way, an insect girlfriend."

　Lucia seems to be willing to refrain from using the terms "subline" and "subspecies."
　I'm sure that such a change of consciousness will have a positive impact on the world ahead.
　I want to change this, too, because it's a nuisance to me from the old days.
　I can't do anything about the gloomy feelings of the world nesting in the subconscious.

"All right. I'm going to tell you now.
"Yes. Make sure you accomplish it."

　Then, I think I'll go see you for a while now.
　To Theron, the road is bright.
　But just in case.

"Astella, may I come with you?"
"Can't you be honest and say 'please'?"
"Magda and Loretta have a job,"
"I have one, too!"

　We can't take the magdas out because we have a shop.
　The rush for dinner is about to begin.

"I'm sorry, but I can't come with you for tomorrow's preparations."

　Natalia bows her head.
　The lord of the manor is going to another ward, and he must have some preparation in mind.
　Well, if you're just going to Theron, you'll be fine with Estella.
　If you don't even get left alone on the night road, that's all right.

"Well, Gilberta. We're going home."
"... eh?"

　Lucia's words roll Gilberta's eyes.
　The surprise infects the surrounding area and hardens the air.

"What am I surprised at?" I've come to pick you up. Well, I've got a carriage waiting. Get ready."
"No... but to-day you should stay... I said.
"I can't do it,"

　an inscrutable assertion
　This is not an atmosphere of persuasion.
　In the first place, I'm here without permission to do my job. It would be impossible to be more selfish in this situation where the lord himself came to pick him up.

「…………」

　I suppose you know that. Gilberta bent down and tied her lips.
　I can't argue with you can't argue.

"Gilberta still has work to do. By the end of the day. That's your responsibility, too."
"...yes,"

　It's a heavy, very heavy voice.
　He even oozes a feeling of hopelessness.

　Next to Gilberta, Jeanette looks like she's going to cry.
　Magda and Loretta, too, keep their expressions on their faces.

"...yes,"

　Gilberta replies again in a husky voice.
　The second reply may be a signal of organizing your mind.
　In other words, Gilberta has given up.

　The atmosphere of depression spreads.

"...I'm sorry for the inconvenience, sir. Let's go to the carriage."

　Oh, my gosh.
　Why are there so many troublesome people around me.........

"Gilberta".

　call Gilberta, who started walking with his head down
　Stop, but don't look back. When I look back, do you think I'll be left with regret?
　Speak to Gilberta's back regardless.

"I'll invite you well next time,"

　The neck bounces slightly and the bent spine slowly grows.

"Yes, that's right! I'll invite you, so please finish your work and don't worry about your future."
"...would you invite me... ...my friend Jiro and my friend Jeanette?"

　a slight turn of one's head in Gilberta
　I can't see his expression yet, but his voice is somewhat brighter.

"Me, Jeanette, and all the staff at the Yodamari-tei. I'll forgive you for being rude enough to refuse.""...my friend, Jiro,"

　Finally, Gilberta turns around.
　His eyes were shaking with anxiety, but his lips were loosened with joy.

"If you have trouble persuading my master, tell me. I'll help you."
"I'll help you, too!"
"... Magda, too, and Loretta, take it all off."
"Why am I naked? I look stupid alone!"

　Yodamari-tei employees line up to see off the guests.
　Then Jeanette represents Yangdalitei and represents everyone' feelings.

"I look forward to seeing you again."

　Gilberta's smile spreads across his face and he turns to Lucia in an unconscious manner.
　Looking squarely at Gilberta's big smile, Lucia turned away.
　Such Lucia's behavior makes Gilberta look uneasy, but... it's all right. You can accept it as consent.
　I couldn't find a word to refute because you laughed so happily. That's why I missed my gaze.
　I'm sure you'll get permission as long as you get your work done properly.

"Gilberta".

　The lord of the forty-two wards speaks to Gilberta instead of the lord of the thirty-five wards who speak no words.

"The lord and the waiter are connected by mutual trust. Natalia,"
"Well, if you want to ask me to do something, I think it's best to show sincerity by fulfilling your duties."
"Good faith... to carry out my duties... ...that I am right, I believe."
"And you know the size of Lucia's bowl best, don't you?"

　Perhaps Estella's words worked, Lucia snorted "...hmm."
　That's as if you've already confirmed it.

"Lucia...?"
"I don't know what's going on. But... I trust you. above all else."
"Yes! I feel the same way. Me too!"

　They must be strongly connected by a relationship of trust that cannot be measured by others.
　I don't think we'll have this kind of conversation very often, but I think something has changed by putting it into words again. especially in Gilberta
　Confidence shows in his eyes.

　The head waiter, who is good at following other people's instructions faithfully, is now trying to act on his own behalf.
　And the Lord is glad to see such growth. That's what I felt so.

"I'm sure I'll accept your invitation. I'll get your permission and come back here again!"
"Yes, I'll be waiting for you."
"Yes! I want you to wait for me."

　My sparkling eyes turn to me.
　have a really happy face

"Will you sleep with me or your friend, Jiro?"
"If I do that, I'll have murderous intentions from all sides... will you stop making such statements even in joke?"

　Lucia, of course, and many others are bound to give her a hard scolding.
　At this moment, I'm staring at you.

"Come and see me. Get your work done."
"Okay! I'll do my best!"

　nod one's fist in one's hands
　He then walks off to lead Lucia with an unmistakably light gait.

　Lucia looked at me just before I started walking.
　It was a little bit of a reproachful, nuanced stare, but... those eyes were like, "You know what happens when you give Gilberta a rough job... don't you?" In other words, "Gilberta, please."

　After all, he is a pretty indulgent lord.

"I'll be waiting for you to-morrow,"

　Finally Lucia left, saying so.

"Well, don't I go to Wendy for a moment,"
"Yes, it's getting dark, so be careful."
"It's all right because I'm with you."
"...Jillo. Watch out Estella."
"What do you mean... Magda?"
"Oh, attack me...?"
"Can't you!"

　While Estella plays with Magda and Loretta, she talks to Neferry and Milly.

"I'm sorry I can't deal with you." Well, take your time."
"Yes. Be careful, Jiro."
"Well... have a good day,"

　Neferry and Milly wave at me.

"Well, I've left dinner time to you,"
"Yes, I'm in charge."
"... I have Magda, so it's all right."
`I'll do my best, too.

　All three look quite professional now.
　Apart from Jeanette, two others have become reliable. You don't have to worry about going out.
　Seeing them off, I'm leaving the Yodamari-tei.
　walk under the dark sky with the eyes of the bustling crowd behind one's back

　Along the way, they part ways with Natalia and head for Theron's brickworks.
　As I entered a narrow alley from the main street, Estella muttered without looking at me.

"What will happen?"
"To-morrow, or the next forty-two wards?"
"Both of them... I suppose,"

　either wayThen that's what it is...

"It will only be as it is,"
"...yeah. That'sure."

　I'm worried.
　But I'm not afraid.
　If you move forward, you'll eventually get somewhere.
　That's what life is all about.
　You can't predict it in the first place.

　Even if you're walking in the dark, it's quite reassuring just to have someone nearby.
　That's what I thought about life.
