Chapter 144 (1/2)

When I woke up, it was a full course of sermons. Starting with Lutz and Benno, Fran and Gill, then Darmuel and Priest. I feel like more and more people are preaching.

…… But I don’t want you to refrain from preaching that I’m going to visit when I’m sleeping with a fever. Lay down.

The longest and hottest preacher was Dermuel. It seems that I was terrified that the priest would be judged by the priest as a knight who could not follow the instructions of the boss again, because I, who was the object of escort, fell down. “I didn’t feel really alive when I thought I was going to be executed this time,” he was angry with tears.

“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. I apologize first, but since I’m planning to start printing in earnest, I think similar things will happen frequently.”

“Isn’t she reflecting at all, apprenticeship to a shrine maiden!”

“I regret that I have to gain strength so that I won’t fall.”

“The point of reflection is different!”

Since everyone preached too much, the excitement of the metal type did not last so much and the fever fell faster than I had expected.

However, the preaching is repeated even after the heat falls. I was tired of the same situation and I wanted to go home soon. Little by little, the snow is melting and the carriages are moving and I think it’s okay to go home.

“I want to go home again …”

In order to return home, you must first write a meeting letter to the chief priest. When I thought so, I received a letter from the chief priest requesting a meeting. A visit request is not an invitation from the priest to come to my room.

“Fran, I think it’s hurry because it’s rare to receive from the chief. I’d like to meet you as soon as possible, but when should I answer it? I’m fine now.”

“Now it will be difficult to prepare for pick-up from now on. It will be fine tomorrow.”

franc laughed and said so, “I’ll be fine tomorrow,” I wrote a reply to the letter.

“Is it better to bring some home-made souvenirs?

The priest chimer brought in a large amount of food. Thawing has begun, so it is no longer necessary for me who is about to go home. When I go home, I am thinking about half of it going to the basement of the orphanage.

“I think it would be nice to bring the sweets you made here. The chief priest liked the cookies a lot.”

“If so, what about the pudding made during this time?”

When Turi came to play, he challenged both pudding and ice cream. As a result, I knew that ice cream was eaten when it was hot. The ice cream eaten in the firewood was delicious, but even if it was eaten in front of the fireplace, the impression that it was “cold” was stronger than “delicious” and the body was only cold.

“That’s right … Pudding can be delicious if you get used to that feeling, but I’m a little hesitant to put it in my mouth, so I don’t think it’s a good souvenir for those who eat for the first time” [19459002 ]

It seems that there are not many steamed dishes here, and Ella was very surprised when making pudding. All the people who tasted said that the tactile sensation was mysterious or that it was lost before biting, and that it was sweet and delicious, but the final evaluation was high.

“Now let Ella bake the cookies that the chief liked”

The souvenirs were decided with cookies. Decide to prepare two types of cookies: plain cookies and cookies made from tea leaves. It ’s my preference.

Since I decided to make a souvenir, I started working on a blueprint for the printing press. I think the original press was originally made by modifying the grape press to make wine, so I think it’s relatively easy here too. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the detailed dimensions and structure.

“Well, there is a tool for applying ink, right? There is a handle like this and there is a skin here … There is a place to put this on the side like this , The place to put the paper is like this … The place to put the typed letters looks like this …? “

Desperately trying to dig up memory, but it is too vague to be a blueprint. Even if I can explain it like this, I can’t remember measuring. It seems that you can only write while actually measuring.

“Principal, would you use a magic tool to explore that memory?”

Around me, who was yelling at the office desk, the side servants were working hard on their jobs.

“Good morning, chief priest”

In addition to greetings, I thank you for your visit and give me a souvenir. I didn’t know if I was really pleased because the expression of the priest who received it while saying, “I ’m sorry” was not changed.

“Arnaud”

Arnaud came out with a dish in response to the priest’s call, put it on the table, and Franc opened the cookies on the plate and served. Fran took out the cup he brought from the room and Arnaud poured tea from the same pot into the priest and my cup.

“Please, Mine”

Suddenly Arnault brought a plate of cookies in front of me. I don’t know what I’m looking for, so I look at the priest.

“It’s a custom of the nobility that customers bring their items on the spot, and the customers themselves eat them for poisoning …. I thought it would be better to teach because it was deaf. ”

…… What a poisonous thing, it ’s scary.

Since I took it, I can speak without hesitation, but when I hear such a story, I’m afraid of eating and drinking in other places.

“It is only after the inviter puts his mouth on the tea”

The priest pokes in a cup from the same pot, and after I eat one cookie, each reaches for what I like.

As Fran said, the priest seems to like cookies very much. The facial expression did not change, but the reduction in cookies was a bit faster than others.

Talk for a little while, such as weather and orphanage reports. Then, after enjoying a cup of tea, the main theme is cut out. I want to think that I have become used to the customs of the nobility.

“That’s the priest, I want to go home soon …”

priest who placed the cup immediately dismissed it before I said “Are you sure?”

“No use”

“… Eh?”

Even though the snow was gradually melting, I couldn’t understand the meaning of being rejected and I leaned my head.

The priest makes a sound and stands up. And once I looked around the room, I headed to the bed.

“Please come”

It seems to be a story I don’t want to hear from the side service. I also stood gently with the cup on the table and entered the door that the chief priest opened.

I sit in the usual chaise longue, and the priest sits in the chair.

“Is it difficult to be asked by the side service?”

“… Yes, I think it is better not to know as much as possible”

After saying so, the chief inhales slowly.

“Actually, the other day I was informed that Wolf suddenly died. I asked Karsted, who was looking for a client to Wolf.”

I suddenly took my breath away from the word that I died. However, I slowly tilt my head because I didn’t understand the point.

…… Who is Wolf?

“It’s a face I don’t understand at all”

“That ’s the priest, I ’d like to ask you what you do n’t like, but who ’s Mr. Wolf?” I heard it somewhere, but I did n’t remember it… ”

Listening to the name doesn’t make a face, so I don’t think it’s a great acquaintance. Because the chief knows and talks as usual, it should be an important person, but I can’t think of it at all.

The priest opened his eyes as much as he couldn’t believe it, and exhaled sighing.

“… Wolf is the president of the Ink Association”

“The president of the Ink Association is that suspicious person, right?”

Speaking of the president of the Ink Association, it was the very reason that I came to the temple because I sniffed my information and got involved in Lutz.

“… Huh? Did you die? Why ?!”

“Slow!”

Investigator and Karsted seem to have been exploring who the nobles who ordered Wolf to investigate me, and to what extent the black rumor was true. However, when several candidates were narrowed down, Wolf suddenly died.

“Wolf seems to have heard from somewhere that the common apprentice of the commoner is the studio director.”

The priest says, emphasizing the part from somewhere. Speaking of which, I should have said that my identity was unexpectedly unknown to the nobility. Humans who know are limited.

“It seems that he was looking to get a lot of information about what the studio manager is really connected to Benno, and how he looks. But you soon fell into the temple. Also, it seems that the body was originally weak and wasn’t very related to the surroundings. ”The result seems not to be very good.”

The heart jumps in the words of the priest. I was searching for information gathered by a nobleman, but the results were not good, and the priest and Karsted began to investigate the connection. If you die at the end of that arrow, you have a bad feeling.

[194590] Was it the work of the nobility that Wolf passed away?

“Probably”

The priest spoke slowly, but ugly.

Dispose of what you think is an obstacle immediately. For nobility, commoners are not equivalent. I knew it, but I was surprised that it was too sudden to be taken as a matter of course. Hold your body like you hug yourself and rub your two arms with goose bumps.

“… Is the nobleman targeting me?”

“I’m sure it’s being targeted by a variety of nobles, but there aren’t many who can clearly see who’s aiming for what you want to do.”

I trembled a little in the words of the priest.

“For the upcoming spring prayer ceremony, aristocrats taking care of the village are moving all at once. The most troublesome thing is that you are taken out of town. If the number of aristocrats in the city decreases, their movement will be more visible. ”

“… Yes”

It is not impossible to go home. I so comforted myself and agreed to stay in the temple until the spring prayer.

“And you should not talk to your family about the length of your stay and about the adoption.”

“… I’m smart”

As expected, I can’t talk to Turi who came to help me or my father as if they were following something important about becoming an aristocratic adoptive. I wanted to talk properly after I got home, but it seems that the priest told me before I got home.

I sighed as I stared at the invitation from the chief.

“I think you know, but don’t tell others about Wolf and the adoptive woman. Your side serving is not just someone you can trust.”

Refused.

An invitation from the priest was given to his parents via Lutz. Lutz told me, “What did you do with the call from the priest,” but it is not something you can easily say. He laid his sigh on the side of the adoptive woman.

“I can’t go home until the prayer is over. That’s about it.”
