224 Why go to Silford territory (1/2)
”Al, is that a little good?”
When I was living in the living room after breakfast, Dad Nord screamed.
It's a serious atmosphere. It's not a terrible thing, such as Dad Nord calling me just like this.
”I'm sorry, I'm busy playing on the sofa right now.”
”I won't say it's busy. Look, come here.”
”It's an important story”
I don't want to go extra if I talk about something important ...
Despite the bad feeling, I head to the table where Father Nord and Elna wait.
Dad Nord coughed his mouth when he saw me sit quietly.
”Al, do you remember Eric you met in the royal capital?”
Eric Silford. He is the same baronist as the Throwlet family.
At the aristocracy exchange meeting in the royal capital, the menchi were cut off from the very beginning, and they were cut off with tongs. I can't forget that guy.
”I remember, because I and Eric are on the same track with each other.”
”What are you talking about? Did you just fight for meat and fight with tongs?”
When I put it in parentheses, Elinora unnie, who is playing Jenga with Silvio, rushes in a voice that seems stunned.
”It's hard to hear that we've quarreled. It's just a bit of a mess. We talked to Eric after that, and we played together the next day in the Imperial City.”
”Only the parties think so.”
Even if I resolutely say, Elna's mother raised her voice as if she was stunned somewhere.
what? What the hell did you say? Why is it that steaming back more than two months ago by this time?
”What do you mean?”
”That's the only party that thinks, not the people who watched it around.”
I've understood Dad Nord's elaborate language.
”Well, do the other nobles think that the Throwlett and the Silfords are sick?”
”That's all”
Dad Nord shrugging.
Indeed, why were such rumors coming to you if you thought you could relive that previous thing?
”Of course, it's not, of course-but I'm just asking, but I'm not terrible with Eric, aren't you playing with the royal capital and your friends?”
”Yeah, I'm a friend.”
It's subtle if you say Eric as a friend.
But in this air, there is no way to say otherwise.
”I want you to be a friend without hesitation.”
”I'm a friend!”
I told her that I was going to change, but Dad Nord and Elna had very worried faces.
It's okay. Eric and I are no longer in a relationship. In other words, it would not be an exaggeration to say a friend. Yeah, Eric and I are friends.
”Well, we need to show outsiders that the Slowlets and the Silfords are on good terms anyway. That's what led us to go to each other's territory.”
”I go to each other's house and we're so close, why do we appeal to others?”
”Simply like that.”
I asked her to confirm, and her mother nodded.
Well, I can leave my misunderstandings around, but it's hard for others to get along.
”And when are you going?”
”Oh, this time I was honest. I thought I didn't want to get out of the village because it was Al.”
”To be honest, I just came back from Kagura and don't want to go out, but it's because of me and Eric.”
I can't say I don't want to go because it's an action I've triggered.
”I've already contacted the Sylford family and set up a plan. I'm going to enter the Sylford territory a week later, so I'm leaving three days later in the morning considering my travel time. And this time the whole family will go.”
”I'm going with Silvio too?”
Don't be surprised at the last word of Dad Nord, Elinora unnie looks back and asks.
The voice seems to be annoying because I understand I'm going out because of me.
”Yes, I'm going to have a joint lesson with the Silford family, and I don't think I'll be bored because there's a sea over there.”
”... Well, there's Luna over there and it won't be boring.”
”The sea. I've never seen the sea yet, so I wanted to see it.”
