414-As expected





'Silvio, you don't mind if I sit at the next table and that empty spot over there?

Oh, Elinora. Yeah, that's fine. The villagers have been very considerate and no one seems to be sitting down.

 As soon as she approaches the table where Brother Silvio is, Sister Elinora says so and sits down.

 Before waiting for Brother Silvio's reply, I don't go into the fact that we are already seated at the table at the earliest.

 It's too cramped to use just one table, so Elinora sister and Luna-san sit on the one with brother Silvio and Bram, while me, Eric, Alecia and Ra-chan sit at the next table.

 However, Lim-san and Loretta remained standing behind their respective masters.

 Apparently, they intend to refrain from standing by as maids. If it's our Meena, she'll take the initiative to take a seat at a time like this, so there's a big difference.

 It's conspicuous and uncomfortable to stand in a place like this, but the presence of a maid also makes it obvious at a glance that there is a nobleman's guest.

 It's not always the case that there are no villagers who get drunk and get involved, so I'm sorry, but I'll ask you to stand here.

 I'm not thinking of making the seat too small for the two of us to sit down or anything else shabby.

"Loretta, give me some juice.

Yes, Lady Rana.

Lim, do me a favor.

Come in.

 When I sat down on a chair, Rah and Alecia were relieved to receive the juice that the maid had given them.

........hmmm.......this juice is delicious.

The juice is thick but not insistent. It's easy to drink, with just the right amount of acidity and richness.

"...Elinora, what kind of fruit is this made of?

They're called Ribula berries. They're found only in this area, and they're too rotten to drink in town.

 Luna and Eric are also obsessed with drinking Libra's juice.

 No, I know they're thirsty, but let's take care of Bram, who's lying there in pain for a change.

'In case you're wondering, why is Bram laying there looking so distressed?

 It's a pity that he doesn't mention Bram lying down at all, so I ask Brother Silvio about it, just in case.

"Eat all the spaghetti as recommended by the villagers," he says.

Oh, I knew it.

 I could have guessed it before I heard it, but it seemed to be exactly as it was.

''What........Alfreet? I'm sorry, but I don't have time to pay attention to you right now.......ugh.

 It's too bad that no one cares about Bram, so I said I cared about him.

''Even at a time like this, this guy is so high and mighty. Alfried, do you want me to shake you up a bit?

 Eric, sitting next to me, makes that suggestion as he glances at Bram.

 'You started out as a harder guy, but you're really starting to be a bad boy.

'Interesting suggestion. Let's do it.

I'm going to rock it!

 I guess Eric and I heard the conversation between me and Eric, and Ra-chan came on board.

'Okay, well, let's get Ra-chan on board too!

Yeah!

"Rahna-sama, we don't do that kind of thing...

 Loretta tries to stop her as she slumps over, but Ra-chan shakes her off and gets over here.

 Then me, Eric and Ra-chan approach Bram, who is in pain, and shake his body, shaking him.

'Ugh! What the hell are you doing? 

 Haha, the feeling of being shaken when you're full would be tremendous.

'Hahaha! Yoo-la-la!

 Ra was delighted to see Bram's reaction.

 As expected of a child, he is relentless.

 Me and Eric would only shake him a bit, but Ra-chan was giving Bram's body a big shake.

''If you do that too much, you're going to make us look terrible too, okay?

 As if she couldn't see such a situation, Alecia gently admonished Ra-chan.

 However, she was smiling very amusedly and didn't seem to be really paying attention.

 The terrible thing I'm talking about here is, of course, Rebirth. Then it's us who will be the victims, so it's not good to overdo it.

''Since that's the way it is, I'll let it end here.

Yeah, that's enough for today!

 When I called out to her, Ra spat out what sounded like a villain's line and went back to her seat.

 It sounds like something Shelka would say, so she probably learned it from there.

 I watched Bram for a while to see if he didn't break down, but he seemed okay.

'I've given him some medication, he'll recover if he rests for a while.

 As expected of brother Silvio, he seems to be taking good care of himself.

 I think the recovery was a little far off with the current shaking.

 Since the situation has been confirmed, there is no need to be concerned about Bram at the earliest.

 I take a sip of Libra's juice.

 It has a deep taste, like a combination of several fruits. The sourness and sweetness are perfectly blended, and the aftertaste is refreshing. It's like a mixed juice.

 I've had it at the lodge from time to time, but Libra's juice is always delicious, no matter how many times I drink it.

Ha, it soaks into my thirsty body.

It's sweet and delicious.

I'd drink it in my mansion if it weren't so difficult to transport.

 It seems that both Ra-chan and Alecia seemed to like it.

 Perhaps because of the harvest festival, the village is much more crowded than usual. However, it's not as crowded as in the royal capital, and the voices of the villagers are pleasant to listen to.

 It is neither hot nor cold, just the right temperature, just the right amount of activity. It's not bad to relax in such a situation.

''Hey, Al. A moment ago, I saw a villager carrying a bottle of beautiful small fish.

 As I was boning around looking around, Alecia asked me.

 As expected of Alecia. She even looks closely at her surroundings.

''Oh, it's true! There's a little red and blue fish!

I've been seeing and wondering about it for a while now.

 Rahna and Luna are also interested in the event.

'That's the event I was going to show you afterwards, the little fish scooping.

'Scooping fish? Do you catch fish?

 Ra says with a tilt of his head.

 That's what you would normally think when you see a villager holding a small fish in his hand, having never done or heard of goldfish scooping.

'No, you don't catch them, you scoop the little fish with what looks like a small net with dried slime skin attached to it.

I don't think I've ever heard of that approach.

 It's just an unconventional play, and even the flexible thinking Alecia can't seem to hide her confusion.

 Well, it's faster to see them actually doing this.

''But is such a thing possible?''

 Eric looks at me like I'm a fraud.

'It wouldn't be an event if it wasn't possible.

 You need some tips and tricks, but there are many villagers who learned to scoop fish.

 Even if you can't do it, most of the people at the fishmonger's stall know how to do it, so you should be able to do it by following their advice. In fact, a number of villagers brought home a jar of small fish.

'Wow, I don't know what it is, but I want to try it! I want a beautiful little fish!

 After hearing my explanation, Ra-chan showed interest. He seemed to be interested in that beautiful little fish.

Well, let's take a break and then go.

Uh, can we go now?

'I've only been in my seat long enough. You need to get some more rest.

'That's right, Lady Rana. You need to get some more rest, or you'll get tired on the way?

 Me and Loretta quieted down Lah, who was looking forward to scooping small fish and deviating from the game, and told her to take a good rest.
