Chapter 168 – What You Have to Do.
“Excuse me.”
Suddenly, Belka tugged at his collar.
“Why?”
“How can those kids swim like that?”
The girl was pointing at the huge fish swimming in the great waterway. I wouldn’t ask that fish swim in the water, not in the cloud zone. Then.
“You’re saying people won’t catch you?”
“Huh.”
Belka’s golden light, looking up at him, seemed to be shining with curiosity. He would be strange if he didn’t know. They looked like Tebrani and Devayaka swimming through the great waterways and someone might try to catch them, but no one cared.
“Because that guy can’t eat.”
To be honest, the taste was terrible. The skin is hard, so it is difficult to clean, the flesh is tough, and there are too many thorns. If you thought it would taste similar just by looking at it, you were mistaken. If Tebrani or Devayaka had been swimming in the waterway, someone would have caught them long ago. Thanks to this, these guys occupied most of the canal. Belka, who heard his words, stared at them swimming. How amazing are they when they say they are amazing?
Looking at the girl’s gold-colored river, I wondered what she was thinking. It was when Jude was watching Belka in silence. The sound of rushing to the point where it felt urgent came from behind them. Looking back, I saw a group of Cattsy crossing the bridge in groups. If you didn’t know the situation, you would have thought that there would be a problem, but the expressions of the Cat Sis who were running were very bright.
“It’ll come back soon.”
Seeing this, Jude returns to the inn with Belka and Helena. After roughly eating the meal prepared by the inn, I went back to my room and suddenly saw Usher lying in the corner of the room, but I didn’t really care. As Jude lay down on the bed, his eyes caught his eyes on the paintings carved on the ceiling. The animals and plants native to Parz were engraved and finished with simple colors, indicating that this inn was a high-class inn. As he was watching it closely, Belka and Helena approached him.
“Do you have any thoughts today?”
As Helena pressed her voluptuous breasts to his body, he could see his distorted figure. Belka was also holding his arm, so he immediately responded by hugging them. Even that night, the heat filled the room.
“Somehow it seems to have gotten more messy since we came.”
When they wandered around Parz for a few days to find medicine, Helena was puzzled by how busy people were. Since Parz is a trade route that connects many countries, it is not that it is not usually busy, but the faces of the people walking around are full of joy, so it is somewhat exhilarating. In particular, it was the appearance of carrying and making materials for several days as if preparing something.
“I guess so. We’re preparing for the festival.”
“You mean the festival?”
Helena asked, looking quite surprised. That’s right, because a proper festival is a fairly rare event. It can only be done after going through the trouble of not only checking when monsters don’t attack well and observing the movements of monsters more thoroughly than usual, but also making preparations. Unfortunately, they are holding a festival after coming to Parz.
“I heard that monsters attacked a few times during our stay.”
“Thanks to that, the king issued a subjugation order.”
As if they were really trying to stop the seeds of monsters, they called in all the Cat Siths and those who could fight. Considering Parzu’s passive response, which was usually at the level of stopping monster invasions as a guard or using mercenaries to subdue monsters, it was unconventional. Thanks to that, Parz was now in a peaceful state because the monsters weren’t attacking. You might consider it lucky, but it was by no means a mere coincidence. They continued to wander around, but today they didn’t get much, so they returned to the inn and waited for a meal on the roof.
“It’s really something I’m not used to.”
Said Helena, looking around at the crowd of people on the roof like them. More people than a few days ago came up to the rooftop and waited for the king to come out, probably because it was not just a simple routine but also a celebration.
“Boo.”
Because many people came up near their inn, Belka, who was sitting on his lap but couldn’t put his things inside her, was clinging to Jude more as if she was dissatisfied, but he liked the girl like that and left it alone. In the meantime, when the king finally appeared, people’s gazes were lifted, and they lifted their heads together.
“That child…!”
Helena was surprised. Well, next to Ison was a catsy boy who was familiar with their eyes. Since they were so far away, they couldn’t hear the words, but at least the voices spread out like whispers from nearby places. In particular, the voices of the Cat Sis were loud.
“It’s like the crown prince!”
“His Highness the Crown Prince has returned!”
They should have heard the news beforehand, but they were announcing it with a loud cry of joy. Even the street I looked down at at a glance was filled with murmurs as I heard Cattsy shouting everywhere. Those who prepared for the festival without knowing why were surprised to realize the reason for the festival.
“His Highness the Crown Prince. Are you saying that child was a member of the royal family?”
Helena must have known at least that the child was from a noble family just because she was Catsy, but she seemed to have never thought that she would be a direct descendant of the royal family. She raised her hand high enough for him to be seen by many, and as he stared intently at the man announcing his return, she realized that their eyes had met. Although she didn’t like looking down at him.
“How long can it stay like that?”
I just wanted you to enjoy it slowly. After lunch, the festival started in a hurry, but the scale was very large. Five-colored lanterns were hung here and there in the streets, announcing the festival with colors even though the lights had not yet been turned on, and on the wide boulevards, the Cattsy gathered and could be seen preparing for the parade. The news of the festival is full of people who came out to the streets, but the number of people who are still empty somewhere and the appearance of people here and there, which is unfortunate to be a festival, clearly shows that it is an improvised festival. Even so, there is no time to set foot on the street, whether the festival is a festival.
“It must be difficult to find herbs like this.”
I knew that breaking her promise to the witch would be very dangerous, but it was true that she was less motivated than that. Helena asks as he gazes at the crowded crowd.
“Is the cure for black throat so hard to find?”
Hearing her words, Jude immediately looked around. Perhaps because they are busy preparing for a festival near them, it seems that no one has heard her words. Fortunately, she didn’t even have to use magic.
“You’d better be careful with your words.”
“Is it something to be so careful about?”
Well, the suppressor is effective, but I have to get some herbs soon.
“Should we move first?”
Jude took them further down the road. As they approached the large dining room they saw when they were almost at the bottom, a woman standing at the entrance approached them. Dancers’ clothes, which are almost like underwear, are the traditional clothing of the Cattsy. Even though she’s not Catsy, she comes up dressed in their traditional clothes and she asks him with her eye smile.
“Can I show you inside?”
“It would be nice if it was where the canal runs.”
“All right.”
Hearing his words, she walks blatantly to show off her buttocks and leads them into her shop. The inside of the shop is more colorful than the inn where they stay. The paintings engraved on the walls as well as the ceiling were plated in more diverse colors. The stems of the vines are silver, the leaves are gold, and some paintings have a bluish green color, probably because of the use of glaze. The doors they passed were tightly closed, and the hallway they walked through was silent, with even the floor shining and only a few sounds leaking out.
Following the buttocks of the waitress, who occasionally reveals her bones under the loose fabric, the place I arrived at was the door on the left, quite far inside. When you open the door, the room with a slight chin is a structure that you take off your shoes and go up. She enters the room and asks her to sit them down in front of a low desk.
“May I take your coat?”
“Not required.”
She nods her head without asking again.
“How many flowers do you need?”
“That’s enough. Enough already.”
“In that case, will you prepare clothes separately?”
“It’s a garment.”
He muttered and glanced at the waiter. His black hair, healthy brown skin and well-groomed body are quite attractive. The top, which is no different from a bra, claims to be clothes, showing the chest bone, and the clothes underneath are no different from panties, except for the girdle that covers the front and back. Even though she knew that her Jude was scanning her body, she showed no reluctance. Rather, she puts her arms together and even makes my breasts stand out more. I’m sure it would suit Belka and Helena too.
“I like it, but I don’t really want to wear it here.”
“I’ll prepare your clothes separately.”
Then she climbed onto the desk in front of Jude and spread her legs. She wasn’t just flirting. Small letters were tattooed on the inside of her thighs.
“Which menu would you like?”
At her question, Jude pondered for a moment before taking off her bottoms. Even so, there was a menu he was looking for where a thin piece of cloth was covering her belly, which was not embarrassed.
“Do it with this.”
“Okay. Then have a good time.”
And then, without putting on the clothes he had taken off, she went out the door. As soon as the door closed, he saw Helena staring blankly at the door.
“Is Parzu originally like this?”
Her grim expression showed how shocked she was. Heck, where else can you see such a sight other than Parz?
“No way.”
But Parz was full of people who had accumulated enough wealth to do that. As much as that, overflowing here was wealth, and there were many people who wanted to eat the bean curd that fell from that wealth. As they waited for their meal to arrive, Belka could be seen watching the water passing by them.
“Is it curious?”
“Huh.”
A small stream of water trickled through the room. It was made like this by digging a waterway from the large and small waterways flowing in Parz. Small, colorful fish were swimming there.
“These fish can’t be.”
Helena, perhaps noticing her incongruity, stares at the small canal across her room with her bewildered eyes.
“Yes, they must have been brought in from the Holy Land.”
The types of fish that swim in the water are rare, but they are almost monopolized in the Holy Land. It wouldn’t be very welcome to send these guys outside even in the Holy Land, but it must have been a contract of some sort with Parzu. At the end of the room, a net was made to prevent fish from escaping even though it was connected to the waterway.
“It’s obvious how much effort the Cattsie must have taken to get these guys from the Holy Land.”
There was nothing like this when he was there. It was while they were quietly watching the fish swim. I hear a knock on the door
“I’ll go in.”
The woman brought out a salad of fresh green leaves and assorted fruits on a large platter, along with simple cutlery, tea and various bowls. But it wasn’t normal food.
“The appetizer is the Mangrove Mariusque Salad.”
At first glance, something that looked like a worm or white earthworm was on top of the salad. Helena looked at her and she thought at first that she was playing a prank.
“Eat it now. It’s hard to eat outside of this season.”
I couldn’t say anything when Jude calmly held up his fork.
