248 Episode 160: A river incident



Delia took me to the river.

 The amount of water is somewhat higher than before because of the heavy rain that has been falling for two days.
 A thin muddy river is flowing with great force.
 however

"The amount of water hasn't increased much."

 There is less water than I expected. The water level should have risen a little.

 This rain had restored water levels to some extent in the scattered reservoirs. It's not safe yet, but for the time being it's overcame the crisis and has reached that level of water storage. It's about 30 percent.
 Water needs to be drained from the river to stabilize the reservoir.

"I think I should call Estella,"

 The 42 wards are, of course, wet areas. Together with being in the lowest position, a considerable amount of water flows in at this time of the year.
 Therefore, each reservoir has taken up considerably more capacity.

 Extremely speaking, about 40% of the water in the reservoir is enough for us to live in.
 The remaining 60 percent is "measures against flood damage" to keep too much water from overflowing.

 So even if I don't feel it at first sight, it doesn't interfere with my life.I feel that the current river is well over the 'slightly understated'.

"That's why the river doesn't flow."

 Delia points up the river and sues.

 From the moment she came to the Yangtari-tei, Delia kept on complaining about the same thing.
 I came to the field to investigate the point. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ."
Doesn't "river doesn't flow" mean "water level doesn't return?"

"If it rains that much, the river should double."
"The water level hasn't increased as much as expected since we've had a little thirsty this year, right?"
"No! It rained in the Forty-second Ward, didn't it? That means it rained in the upper river, did it?"

 The upper river...doesn't it mean the twenty-ninth leg?

"The upper river and the upper river, and the two rivers, ought to flow here!"

 It won't simply be twice as much, but given the amount of rain, it certainly seems to be a little.
 Upper river... what happened in the twenty-ninth leg?

"Do you want to go to New Town?"
"It's upstream! All right, I'll cut through the woods!"
"Wait a minute! It's faster to take the road!"

 Delia runs upstream along the riverbed.
 The upper reaches of this river into deep forests, where wild beasts live in dangerous and steep petite jungles.
 This forest stretches out on the cliff side of the 42 wards, leading to wetlands.
 It's a natural wild forest, untouched by a flower guild. It's not Delia, it's hard work to get through it.

 Fortunately, the upper reaches of the river pass through the woods into New Town.
 It's quicker to take a well‐maintained road. especially when I'm with you I'm a city boy.

"Well, Loretta's man is holding back."Why, you're so mean...!"
"No, wait a minute. That's not the case, is it?"
"If Loretta is mean, I'll give her a flat butt!"

 Delia's butt looks painful.

"What if it was Umaro who stopped me?"
"...crushing my ass!"

 That's all right. The conduct is probably the same, though.

"Well, there's no reason for them to dam the river," There should be another problem."
"Well, Jillo..."

 Delia's expression of uneasiness on the spot.
 ...what?
 You look like this as soon as you spoil it, right?

 That's why I said it's not good to spoil easily.
 In the first place, if I were not in the Forty-second Ward, this problem would have been solved by the lord and the guildmaster, Delia.

 We need Delia to be a little more firm.

 So...

"I'll think with you, so don't look like that."
"...yes,"

 ...I'll teach Delia how to deal with this kind of situation. So that I can do it properly by myself in the future.
 That would save you time and effort later, and it would be beneficial for the sun to keep the river fishing smooth.
 This time I'll give you a lecture on how to do it. That's all.

"Heh... thank you," Jillo,"

 What makes you so happy?
 Delia is shrugging her shoulders and loosening her mouth.

"Yasilo is kind to 'important people,' isn't he?"

 You've forgotten such an excessive conversation.
 I won't say it because I'm stuck in the "Spiritual Judgment."

`Hehe.........hey,'
"It's a big deal in the river, isn't it?" -- I'll be right there."
"Oh!"

 He looked so happy. even at times like this
 We left the riverbed, blasting Delia, who couldn't stop smiling.






 When we left the river and went into the highway, there was a guy running for us.

"Old man!"

 ………………………Ning-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n

 A sound like that rushes past me.
 ...quick, quick, Hammaro.

"Oh, my gosh!? Big brother, suddenly, disappeared!"

 Hammaro, who passed by in no time and was already about the size of a bean grain, is somehow in a hurry over there. ... you can't cope with your own speed.

"Hammaro! Come back!"
"Yes!"

 Hammaro notices here and returns at a more modest rate than before.
 ... Well, how could I recognize him as Hammaro at a glance? He looks almost the same as other younger brothers. ...what's the atmosphere?"Old man!"

 Hammaro, who came up to me with a big wave of his hand, tilts his head.

"... Hmm?"
"Oh, I'm glad," I don't think I was mistaken."

 Hammaro is the only one who reacts to this.
 He's definitely Hammaro.

 Oh, I'm scared. If I could tell these guys apart, I would think I was part of the Loretta family.

"My brother," It's a big deal for our family!"
"What happened?"
"That's it,"
"Wait a minute, Hammaro!"
"Oh! Stable master!"

 Hammaro opens his arms to Delia, as if he had just noticed.
 He seems to have something in his mind. ...the other younger brothers seem to have been frightened.

"Hammaro! You can't do it!"
"Hummallow?"
"Huh? No?"
"No?"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
"Don't talk on the same level, boys. I'm afraid I'll be left behind."

 Now that's Hammaro, move on, Delia.
 What are you trying to say?

"Yasilo will grant you a favor," You're the last one."
"What number?"
"What? ... well, fourth!"
"Two more people, whose wish should I ask?"

 Don't increase it, will you?

 For some reason, I felt that if I kept Delia and Hammaro nearby, the conversation wouldn't go at all, so I decided to get out of Hammaro's story quickly.

"And what happened?"
"River water, refuse to come to work!"

 Hammaro's words open Delia's eyes.
 turn one's face a mixture of surprise and anxiety

"Yasilo... Let's hurry up and go!"
"Come on, calm down! It's only after hearing about Hammaro."
"You can listen to it on your way, Hammaro! Here you go!"
"It's no use being in such a hurry. If you lose your temper, you'll make a terrible mistake where you don't think you're going to. Calm down."
"But now...!"

 Worried about the river, Delia is in a great hurry now. be on the verge of being overwhelmed with anxiety.
 It's a shocking sight in such a situation... for example, when you see the river level dropping or the waterfall narrowing... you never know what kind of runaway you're going to get.
 It's troublesome because like the hamsters, they can say, "Let's break the cliff!" and if Delia gets serious, they can break it.

 You had better listen to Hammaro here and cool his head down.

"Hammaro, calm down and speak step by step. What happened in Newtown? What did you see? And what's important about the family? Answer them one by one."
"Yes!"
"Ah, now... it's frustrating."

 Delia gazes at Hammaro with an easy expression with a bitter expression.
 Delia should learn to put up with situations like this.
 In order to grow up to solve these problems by myself in the future.

"The river was forbidden until it rained!"

 I think Loretta said it. They prohibit brothers and sisters from playing in the river because the water is getting stronger and more dangerous. He said on a rainy day that all brothers and sisters were prohibited from doing so because the little ones imitated him.

"It stopped raining, so we all went to the river this morning!"
"And!? What happened to the river!"
"Delia, don't rush me. Let me speak at Hammaro's pace."
`Well,......!'

 Come on, Delia.
 It will do you good.

"The waterfall is almost gone!"
"What!"

 It was Delia who let out her voice, but I was surprised, too.
 The waterfall... Is it gone?

"This thin water was dripping!"

 Hammaro makes a circle with his thumb and forefinger and withers it.
 Whatever it may be, it's true that the waterfall has undergone a radical change.
 Just a little...

 Above the Forty-two wards -- what is going on in the Twenty-ninth wards -- or did anyone "work out" anything?"

"Yasilo! Let's go! Let's go! I can't stand it anymore!"
"Wait! One last thing!"

 I haven't heard what Hammaro wanted to say most.

"What's important about your family?"
"I can't bathe!"

 Shaw!?"Take a bath in the river..."
"There's not much water in the river, so I'm worried if I can get in!"

 Thinking about it?
 Wasn't he thinking about it wasn't he?
 Are you still worried about the waterfall?

"My brother is worried about wearing soft-shelled turtle!"
"Delia, hurry up! Come here, Hammaro!"

 With Hammaro under his arm, I whip my motor nerves and start running at full speed.

"Huh!? Jiro! What's wrong with you all of course.

 Loretta's worried about her soft-shelled turtle!? Peeping... What if she doesn't go to help! That's right now!

"Wasn't it no use rushing?"
"Things are changing every moment while we stand still! Time is money! We don't have time to stand still!"

 I'm going to be the wind now!

 The runaway locomotive was also blue and I made it to Newtown in no time.






"Ah! Hey, hey!

 When I went straight to the waterfall without looking aside, my sister greeted me with just a bath towel wrapped around her.

"Hey! I've called you said.
"Oh! I'll praise you!"
"Isn't it your sister.
"Huh? Our older brother,"
"My brother!"
"No, from Hammaro's point of view, it might be my sister!"

 When you say "Oppa", you might think it's Loretta, but is it normal?

"Oppa, you look pretty,"
"I can't get married, moment!"
"Go, go! How many things do you think your child'said she.

 He's wearing a bath towel! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
 Javier is the only one who is happy with this!

"...I'm tired."

 Adrenaline, which had been secreted in large quantities, evaporates in an instant and disappears from the body.
 A feeling of exhaustion surged from my body. ...Oh, my heart! burst out…to vomit

"Hey! Jillo! Don't leave me behind...... what's the matter?"
"Meet the sad reality!"
"Huh? Huh? She's my sister, isn't she? What about Loretta?"
"Oppa, Yodamari-tei!"

 That's right!
 It's about time Loretta came to work at the Yodamari-tei, as Delia came and did a lot of work right after she came home from church.
 I can't be here!
 It's something I found out after thinking about it.

"Oh my gosh!"

 While I'm staring at the ground with a feeling of weakness that I can't recover from, Delia screams from the bottom of her heart. Omero's screams are ten times more likely than Mandragora's.

"Hey, palms, palms! Oh, look at that! Oh, look at that!"

 I lift my heavy head and look at Delia's point, violently grabbing my shoulders, shaking my hands, and shaking my body.

"...what?"

 There was a little incredible sight there.

"... seriously, there are no waterfalls."

 Hammaro's story wasn't exaggerated or exaggerated, but really, the waterfall had disappeared.
 "Even so, I thought there must be a waterfall that has become thinner than the ""fallen"" of water..."

 The waterfall stopped completely.

"Yasilo... What's going on? Explain it to me in a way that I can understand."

 Even if you say that, I don't understand the situation. I should be able to explain...

"Yasilow!"

 Estella's voice echoes through the new town.
 A voice that's urgent and serious.

"It's Estella, Jillo," What happened?"
"... I suppose,"

 Estella's hand, running toward her, holds a high-grade-looking parchment.

 I stand up and Delia stands up. He must have felt an extraordinary atmosphere in his body.
 Estella's expression was so ominous that Hammaro and her sister in a bath towel clung to my waist.

"I'm in trouble...!"

 Estella says, almost without blinking, without breaking breath.
 The letter he held depicted an emblem he had never seen before.

"Actually, I was going to get over the trouble between the lords by myself, not by Jiro..."

 I look down at the letter that was presented with such a preface.
 Delia peeps in, but her eyes seem to have glided and she just looked up at me.

"...what is this?"

 I don't know where to go, and I feel like I'm angry, dumbfounded, and surprised, and I'm choking.
 I can't find words.
 What's this?
 What do you mean?

"What! Jillo, Estella! What happened?"Delia rushed me, but I couldn't understand this situation myself.
 I couldn't immediately explain what was written here because I couldn't believe it.

"Well, Estella! Now Jiro is trying to do something about the lost waterfall after Hammaro's request! It's very important, and it's very urgent! Can't you take care of it later?"
"That's all I have to worry about, Delia..."

 Estella says in an impassioned voice.
 His mouth trembled slightly and he smiled dryly.

"Because the trouble I brought in was this waterfall..."
"Huh? Is it related to the disappearance of the waterfall?"
"Rather than related..."

 People sometimes smile when they don't see a clue to the solution.
 That's the very moment.

"The twenty-ninth leg has informed me. Well, to be precise, it is the joint name of the lords, including the twenty-ninth leg."

 Estella's voice trembles with distortion.
 I don't think I'll laugh either... because --"

"It seems that the sluice gate dammed the river in the twenty-ninth Ward."
"What!? Why?"

 The reason why I stopped him????

"'Cause the Forty-two wards caused abnormal weather, and caused a water shortage of water,'"

 for that's a very obscure reason.

"...what? What do you mean?"

 Delia's gaze is directed at us from Estella.
 Therefore, I will read and let you know the folly of the Forty-Second Ward that caused abnormal weather conditions.

"It is said that the 42 wards used weapons called "fireworks" to carry out intensive fire on the sky, and the clouds disappeared, and that they recognized the cause of this drought, and they seek compensation for the damage caused by this."
"Fireworks... is that a firework?"

 the fireworks we set off at Wendy's wedding
 They say that the clouds were burned down.
 As a result, this drought was caused...

 I want you to compensate for it...
 and, perhaps to prove that it was not a threat, he closed the sluice gate and dammed the river."

"...are you stupid, Twenty-ninth Ward?"

 It was a rare word for me, and it leaked from my heart.
 Exposing one's true feelings to others is not something that should be done by a swindler."

"They are telling me to come and listen to the twenty-ninth leg to-morrow afternoon."
"Well, I'd rather beat him up without being told..."
"Yasilo..."

 Estella puts on an apologetic look.
 There's something frustrating about me and I'm just about to cry.

"Will you lend me your help me. This time I'm dealing with him, he's really troublesome."

 The letter was marked BU with the names of the seven.
"BU"?
 Earlier, Estella said it was "a joint name of the lords, including the twenty-ninth district." Joint names... federation?

"...and you're going to get Jiro involved again... ...but you know more about fireworks... ...because it's going to be a negotiation that you can never fail."

 He clenched his fist, bit his lips, and Estella spins words in agony.
 You fool!

"It's too late, isn't it? When you were in the waterwheel, you threw it completely?"
"Oh, my... for everyone in the Forty-Second Ward loved him, and I thought I could cover him with all my might."

 However, the case that I am trying to get involved in this time is an opaque negotiation that is likely to be impossible to deal with in case of emergency, because it is obscene people who have regarded me as enemies.

 Estella has rarely relied on me for negotiations between lords since she assumed the office of lord.
 I've heard from Natalia that he's becoming a lord and facing his duties head on.
 When you talk to me, when you really can't do anything about it.

 It's only when you put the people of the 42 wards before your own will and decide that it's best to do so.

 Perhaps Estella could have thought of a foot-rowing wheel.
 "There is a waterwheel in the twenty-ninth leg," said Umaro. If it's Estella, it's no surprise that you've seen it.

 Then he carried me to save the troubled 42 wards.
 with the usual stance of "Now, let's see what you can do."

 I can see his ulterior motive.

 You're that one anyway, aren't
 If I help the residents of the 42 wards, my stock will rise. To put it bluntly, he likes me.
 If I were to be liked by the people of the domain--I would no longer be able to leave the Forty-two wards without my permission.
 I wonder if my feet would be hard to get away from here if I started to care for more people, not just the Jeanettes.

 That's how you care about people... and you care about me... and you're always feeling dizzy, aren't you?
 You fool!

"It is worthy of recognition that we asked for help before it was too late."
"Well... what do you mean?"

 You want me to take it easy. this new lord
 Don't think everything will go well from the start.

 I'll listen to some nonsense until it works out.
 If the Forty-two wards are threatened, it will be far from business, and my profit will be reduced."

 And...

 Well, you're quite an important guy, too.


"Just reading this letter made me hate..."

 Shake the letter in hand and give a warning.

"They're going to exploit us," at every possible threat."
"...yes. I think so."

 If so, Estella alone would be anxious.
 Unlike other lords, this man is not good at making a quarrel.
 She's always a sweetie who can only deal with things straight, sincere and honest.

 You're as good as Jeanette.

"I don't know what kind of people they are..."

 look beyond the dammed waterfall
 Make a declaration by pointing to the twenty-ninth leg with one's arms outstretched arm outstretched arms.

"I'll buy you one, you fight." I'll make you regret that you've made an enemy of me!"


 It's been a long time... Let's squat, ducks, to the bone.


"... Jillo, you look like an evil parent."
"That's impolite,""I've only told you the truth." though."

 The smile that still remains stiff is turned on me.

"I'm relieved to see such a face,"

 a shrugging estella
 I guess you're relieved of your anxiety.

 Well... I don't know what to do. this matter

"Well, Jiro... I didn't understand the whole story. But I only knew that something had happened that I had to brace myself up."
"Ah... I'll tell you in a nutshell so that you'll understand."

 Delia's expression braces.
 Delia is no stranger when it comes to rivers.
 From Delia's expression now, I can feel a ghastly feeling.

 Nevertheless, I hear voices around my waist that are not tense.

`I'm still a soft-shelled turtle!'
"Wear clothes. I'll catch a cold."
"I'm wearing it! I like it, my clothes!"
"Yes, it's not about you, Hammaro,"
"Hummallow?"
"...by the way, Jillo," What's the choice of this chaotic member?"

 I didn't choose it.wa

 For the time being, my sister decided to let Hammaro go home and take Estella and Delia back to the Yodamari-tei.
 I feel like having a meal and sorting things out.


 We left Newtown after seeing the dammed waterfall again.
