"Oh, this is a sight which I should not show to anyone else." Let me close my eyes, please."
"Do you have such a dangerous request?"
Gilberta is in a great hurry after Lucia's molestation.
"It won't hurt, I suppose,"
"It must hurt,"
We'll prevent Gilberta from running wild, who doesn't know how serious he is.
…I see.
"That's a good guess,"
"Ah, Mr. Jiro. Is this...?"
While all the witnesses were dumbfounded at the lord's molestation, Jeanette came next to me and asked me to explain the situation.
"We were completely and fundamentally mistaken,"
"Are you mistaken?"
That's it
"Are you guys 'human'?" -- and the circumstances in which Calvin was thrown out, and the blunt attitude towards Marsha, made me quite convinced Lucia was 'beast-racial'."
"Oh, it's "Beast Moe","
`Well... 'moe'...
Lucia was so obsessed with Wendy's antennae that she didn't even notice our invasion.
Perhaps this is what a meeting with Marsha looks like. ...that's why outsiders are off limits. If Estella's image of a cool personality precedes her...
"I used to get along with a man in the garden who looked like anchovies whose martan had dried up too much..."
Who dried the anchovy too much, Konoyaro?
"You look so happy when you're with me..."
Lucia and I met suddenly.
「…………」
「…………」
Look at each other silently for a few seconds...
"Anchovy!"
"Who is anchovy!"
Lucia burst into a great panic.
"How do you get here, my dear fellow?"
"Did you notice it now?"
Huh?
Are you a fool by any chance?
"Gilberta!""Yes, here I am."
"I told you not to let anyone in!"
"Yes, I was listening."
"Why, then, are these people here!"
"They crawled forward, they crawled in,"
Lucia's mouth twitches when she hears Gilberta say something in a snappy.
Well, well... I'll lose my temper if I get an excuse like that.
"Then there's nothing I can do about it."
"Pure or stupid, which one!"
Are you all right, 35 wards?!
"...blind spot...."
Lucia bites her nails with an expression of vexation.
Gilberta controls it in a dignified voice.
"I'm sorry to bite your nails!"
No, no. I'd have revealed my more humble appearance before that. Stop there, if you don'
"Gilberta... are you going to tell me what to do?"
I was pointed out and it was cut in reverse!?
"If you don't listen... I won't let you touch it again, my antennae."
Gilberta scraped up his bangs and found a little "chokkong" antennae growing on his forehead.
Was he an insect race, too?
"...I will be careful from now on."
It's broken!?
It's so easy, you lord!? You've given it to the head waiter!?
"Gilberta's antennae is cute."
"Do you think so? I'm a Guntai Ali."
Guntai Ali... Is that what it looks like?
"He has a very small antennae compared to Wendy,"
"That's a good place! If you speak like you know nothing, you'll never eat anchovies again! Be careful, man!"
"There's too much difference in response!"
Lucia is too hard on me.
I've never experienced such blatant discrimination.
You're a human being, too! You're a nobleman!
"Oh, you... Lucia... don't you like people?"
Distraughtly, Jeanette asks Lucia.
Lucia's eyes catch Jeanette... in a soft arc.
"That's not the case," Above all, I hate discrimination. There is no choice between likes and dislikes by race. It's just that Calvin and the anchovy-like man there are disgusting and disgusting."
"I think I'm being discriminated against by men and women!? Or, don't put me in the same bag with Calvin first!"
He began discrimination by saying, "I hate discrimination."
What a fellow!
Estella must have been scared because there was no one there to like Lucia when she got together in the nobility. I'd be in a good mood if I had someone like Marsha, but otherwise I'd be much more irritated. That's the type of guy he is.
It looks worse than Imelda.
Lucia looks at me with her arms folded.
He looks at me with a lot of hostility.
"And then... rush into my private room... ...what do you want to do?"
"I came here to save you because you took away your comrades!"
I looked at Wendy and she was crying for somehow.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Why?
"...heroes... ...with me, with my companions... ...to help me... ...or, I'm so impressed!"
"Well, well... it's not such an exaggeration." Don't cry, you know?"
"...yes,"
Wipe away the tears and Wendy smiles gently.
but her smile was masked by the ill-fated anger that came from Wendy's side.
Lucia intervenes between me and Wendy, and looks at me like a young man.
"Following Ma-tan, Wen-tan's good expression! I hate you! Execution!"
"Wait a minute!"
Is he really a lord? Isn't he a kindergarten boy?
Oh, Wen-tan!? I can't feel any sense!
"Gilberta, pick him out!"
"I'm sorry, I... ...but most importantly, my friend."
"Well... to Gilberta."
Lucia looks astonished at Gilberta's rejection of the order, which she probably never defied. My knees begin to tremble.
"You're going to take everything away from me!"
"No... neither Wendy nor Marsha are yours, let alone Gilberta."
What, this possessive mass...
"Yasilo... the tone,"
"Even though Estella warns me in a low voice, if I ask her if she can use honorifics anymore, is she a beautiful woman who is pro-pervert?"
"That's all right, isn't it? He doesn't seem to care much."
"Isn't it a matter of not caring? He's a nobleman and a lord?"
"So you are equal to me, aren't you? Then you are inferior to me."
"When did I ever get below you?"
I helped you a lot, right?
Be indebted to me and be my younger brother.
Go buy yakisoba bread or something.
"Aesthetics!"
"Well, yes! What, Lucia...?"Estella turns to Lucia with a strained face.
I guess he has a bad conscience. He has an awkwardly twitching on one's face
"What's that there? Is it your companion?"
"What!? Oh, my God, what! What do you mean by that?"
"No, even if I were dumped this way..."
It's not "What?"
Be honest and deny that it's not, it's going to be complicated.
"Oh, you know,"
Straighten up and Estella begins to talk.
"First of all, I would like to thank you for taking care of the carriage."
"Huh? Oh, that's how easy it is. It's only natural that the lords of the same land should accommodate each other if something happens. but I don't hate his righteous character."
"Oh, thank you very much. ...and, you know. I have a favor to ask of you."
"Wish? That's a strange coincidence. I have a favor to ask of you."
"What? To me...?"
"Well, what do you think? What do you mean by fulfilling each other's wishes?"
"Yes! By all means!"
Oh! Estella did a great job of summarizing the story.
This may allow the flowers in the garden to be grown in the 42 wards. That's great, Estella.
"Then expel the anchovy from All Bloom,"
"Why is that so!"
He's asking for an outrageous wish!?
"Then expel me from this world,"
"It's getting worse!"
Turn into dust.'
"That's not a favor, but an order!? I won't hear it!"
He seems to have been hated to the bitter end.
What did I do...
"Oh, dear Lucia," Mr. Yashiro is a very kind person... uh... what's too harsh is... uh...
Jeanette took the courage to appeal to Lucia like that way.
"Even such a good girl is cherished! What a shame! Extreme punishment!"
"Did you hear about Jeanette?"
What is this stupid lord!?
What selfish girl!?
"I'm sorry, sir," It's a bit selfish, Lucia, because she doesn't have any friends."
Don't tell me, Gilberta.
It's not because I don't have any friends, it's because I don't have any friends.
"Hey, Lucia sister~? Listen to what you guys are saying~" Oh, ne, ga, ☆"
"Well, I'll hear you," So, do you mean anchovies there? Then you'd better talk quickly."
So who is the anchovy?
Well, it's not a good idea to mess it up against the weirdo, since you're going to listen to me. patience
I try to be calm and negotiate with a serious expression.
"I want you to give me flowers from the flower garden".
"No,"
...quick.
"Is it a matter of profit...?"
"I don't care about profits. In the first place, our territory does not benefit from flower gardens at present.'
"Why, then?"
"Because it is impossible for you to raise those flowers."
I thought that the purpose was to monopolize that delicious honey, but it might be easier than I expected to get."
"And I hate you so much that I don't want to grant you a trifling wish."
...withdrawal of the previous statement.
It may be very difficult...
"Lucia, we have a specialist in growing plants in our territory. If I leave it to her, I'm sure I can grow flowers in the flower garden."
Estella will soon follow.
Lucia, however, smiled invincibly and said in a detached voice.
"What are you going to do about the cost? It's going to cost a fortune to raise those flowers. If you're thinking of doing business on that honey, give it up. The deficit is obvious. It will end up just playing with the life of the plants."
"So... does it cost money?"
"That's enough to put pressure on our ward's finances."
Estella's face bleeds with blood.
Does it cost that much to maintain... If the cost of ingredients increases, I can't afford to pay at Yodamari-tei...
"And why don't you give me the nectar of flowers on a regular basis?"
"I don't think so,"
There was another flat denial."It was prepared by me, especially for the subspecies of the Asians. I wonder if your business partner is a human being, and I will not do anything to put a strain on the subspecies."
Then, a powerful and dignified gaze is directed at us, as if all the jokes we've made had been phantom.
"Absolutely,"
It was powerful enough to end the negotiations in a single word.
You can tell by just hearing a word.
"Oh, I can't do this."
It's different to say that there's no island to be attached to…
a more categorical refusal than to be rejected by a devout believer to dismiss the image of God. It was an unimaginable refusal that made me realize that it was impossible.
This lord, Lucia, has a stronger attachment to the Beasts, especially to the Insects.
I don't know if it's protectionist, compassionate, missionary or other feelings... but I don't know, but I can't bend this belief a little bit. That's the only thing I've found out.
"...are you going to start again.
"Yes, sir,"
Negotiations to have flowers handed over are pointless.
Then it would be a good idea to pull up early.
"It's Estella,"
Lucia talks to us as we leave the room.
We all turned to Lucia, not to mention Estella, who was called.
...and the dignity of the lord of the manor was shown, and that was the nature of my body.
"I'm afraid neither wish came true this time."
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
Can't your wish come true?
"But I don't want to be hostile to you. I'll be happy to help you if there's anything I can do to help you. You can tell me anything."
"Yes, thank you very much."
He doesn't seem to be as frightening as previous information.
If our interests are in agreement, they may be a reassuring ally.
"Anchovy".
"Who is anchovy!"
How many times are you going to tell me?
"I will say that your courage is a great thing,"
the lord of the thirty‐five wards that everybody says is frightening I don't think there's a lot of people who talk informally about it.
Maybe Lucia didn't just find my interaction unpleasant. It looked like you were enjoying yourself.
"Can I come and see you again?"
"No,"
"Well, let me interrupt you,"
"Well... do as you please."
Lucia with a provocative smile.
After all, he doesn't seem to dislike this kind of approach.
"Can I ask you one last question?"
"I can't do it,"
"... two then."
"One,"
If so, be honest with me. That's too much.
"Wendy and Theron are getting married."What do you think?"
Wendy of the Yamayuga tribe and Theron of Man. What does Lucia think of the couple's marriage... she wanted to ask.
"The other way around,"
a word spoken without hesitation
I wonder if there are many opinions like that outside of the 42 wards."
"Wentan, you should marry me."
"I'm not talking about personal feelings!"
"Oh, dear Lucia! We're both women, so we're not going to get married.
"Wendy doesn't have to answer properly either!"
I'm asking you what you think about interracial marriage!
Explaining this, Lucia makes a gesture of thought and, again, gives an answer in a clear voice.
"Many people don't like interracial marriages. It's up to them. I think you can do whatever you like about marriage, but as you are trying to do, I am not impressed with the aggressive twisting of the ideas of those who oppose it."
Lucia asserts once and for all that it's ego.
Ego...
That may be the case.
It's no use being called ego to force others to do something they don't like, saying, "This is definitely better."
however
This guy...
Wendy and her parents are different.
This unfriendly parent and child are waiting for each other... for that moment of reconciliation.
So I'm going to do it, even if it's ego or not.
There are a lot of people I know who want to be like that.
To Theron, Wendy... Estella... Jeanette.
By the way, all the members gather at the Yangtari-tei.
Those opinions are more important to me than to the general majority.
I'll do what I think is right.
"Thank you for your valuable opinion,"
"I will not budge from my belief, even though I say…" Don't look like that."
I see.
You're watching carefully.
"Well,"
"I don't know what you have in mind, and what you are interested in and working on interracial marriage... are you ready?"
Are you ready?
"Your actions affect those around you, for better or for worse. Hasn't that already happened?"
Our entry into Wendy's family affairs temporarily heated up the dispute between Wendy and her mother.
Our actions... my decision affects people around me. ...for better or for worse.
"If... I should scratch half-heartedly and destroy the relationship between the subspecies and humans, trample on the relationship of trust, and make Wentan cry."...I will not forgive you. I will use whatever means I can to hold your breath."
It wasn't his joking eye.
"Are you prepared to do that?"
Lucia's words were uttered just by looking at me.
I wonder if you've got a clue about this guy. In this case... No, when this member takes action, I'm at the center of it'That's why you asked me.
And he threatened me.
'Don't mess around in my territory.'
If you're going to scratch... impose a duty to make things better than they are now.
It's not a good idea.
"I'm not prepared to do that,"
give someone a shrug
If you provoke me, I'll do it myself.
"It's a matter of decision for them to be happy. You don't have to think about it if it's so improbable. Therefore, I am not prepared to do so."
If you fail... I don't have to think about it, but if you insist, you can do whatever you want.
If I fail... if that's going to make them unhappy... I'll voluntarily disappear.
"I've decided to make them happy. I can't admit to failure. I don't live in such an easy way that I can insure myself if I fail."
Glory or death?
That's the way a swindler lives.
"Therefore, don't give me a second thought, and you should cooperate with me if anything happens." for my beloved tribe of worms."
say with a triumphant smile
Estella was nervous next to me, but she didn't interrupt me because she felt the same way as me.
It's not just Estella, it's all the people here... all the people who aren't here.
No one thinks it's OK to fail.
We can't accept a future other than success.
"...an insect race."
I've said a lot of things, but that's what Lucia said first.
"Do you mean a subspecies?"
"Oh, perhaps,"
Judging from what I've said so far, the Beast tribe I'm referring to is "Ajin" and the Insect tribe is "Ase."
I don't understand the "subline."
In any case, I don't think I'll like 'Ajin' or 'Subspecies' because they don't look very good.
"...it's an interesting name." Let me imitate you, too.
Lucia says so, so I'm sure the insect race sounds better than the subspecies.
If you think it's OK, you can imitate me.
If that word spreads... there's no need to belittle yourself if the insect race is a 'subspecies.' It's good to spread it to your heart's content.
"Well, I'll wait and see what you do for a while. If you wish to ask me something, you may call here."
Lucia changed her mind.
They seem to cooperate, if not aggressive.
"... before that, I want you to meet someone."
For a moment Lucia utters a quiet voice, as if to nail us in joy.
Our emotions are suppressed in an instant, as if we were pouring water into a boiling pot.
Who do you want me to meet you?
Lucia's serious eyes told us that it wasn't a very good introduction.
"I want you to make time in two days. I'll pick you up, so please go with a few people."
We look at each other at the sudden offer.
Is this like a trial to get Lucia's cooperation?
When I look at Estella, she nods clearly with a slightly uneasy expression.
Well, we have no choice but to do it.
"All right. Me and Estella, and..."
"Yes, me too!"
Jeanette raised her hand when she was trying to select a member.
It was such a rare thing that Estella and I were in a state of confusion.
"... well, if you don't mind... if you don't..."
Because of our silence, we seem to have lost confidence and our voices are getting louder and louder.
No, no. That's all right, isn't it?
There's no problem at all, but that kind of aggressive feeling was unusual.
"Then the three of us will come,"
Estella concludes, Lucia gives her approval with a nod.
At the lord's house, where he visited to get the nectar of flowers, the conversation turned in an unexpected direction.
But reconciliation between Wendy and her parents will surely require Lucia's help. That's how I feel.
Guilberta takes me back to the coachyard.
I noticed that the sky had turned red. He seems to have stayed quite a long time.
I want to go home early and take a rest at the Yodamari-tei.
