C493: Preparations for the Festival

There are festivals in this world as well, perhaps due to the influence of earthlings who have migrated here, but they seem to have a strong religious element and are often more like rituals than festivals.

As Nagisa mentioned, few people seemed to understand the idea of holding a welcome party in a festival-like atmosphere.

“Is it okay if the place is outdoors? How are you going to cook the food?”

“We’ll set up food stalls and serve the food. People can choose what they want to eat and eat as much as they want.”

“Oh, oh, oh, oh, can I eat as much as I want?”

“Good. Enjoy it as much as you want.”

“Yay! Nanami and Farma will eat.”

“Yeah, sure.”

“But, Nanami, you can’t eat as much as Lorgo.”

“Ode will eat what Nanami didn’t eat.”

“I see. Then we’ll be fine.”

I don’t know if it makes sense but I’m glad Nanami and the others seem to be having fun.

“So, are you going to get us some booze?”

Father doesn’t seem to be interested in the festival, but he is happy to have an excuse to drink sake.

“Of course, we’ll have several kegs of all-you-can-drink sake, and we’ll have stalls set up where you can pick and choose what you want to drink.”

“That’ll be fun.”

Jean answered father’s question. The fact is that the actual festival is going to be a lot more than just a party, it’s going to be a celebration of the people who have joined the Iron Knights.

Although me and Nagisa came up with the idea based on our experience with festivals, in the end, it was Jean who was in charge.

“It’s alright to drink, but only in moderation, please.”

“She’s a picky girl, isn’t she? Her mother, who was usually so strict, used to let me drink freely on such occasions.”

“I am different from mother. I will not be lenient at any time!”

Kiyone said so clearly that father could not say anything back to her. Still, I expect that he will make me drink at the festival.

“Linnecarlo, can you do me a favor?”

Jean said, while looking at his notes.

“I don’t mind, but what do you want me to do?”

“I would like to ask for the cooperation of the restaurants in the royal capital, since it is impossible to run all the stalls with only the members of the old troupe. Can you use the authority of the royal family?”

“I understand, I will talk to Yudin.”

I don’t think it’s right to use the royal family’s authority for something like this, but the royal family accepts it without any sense of uneasiness. Yudin would also probably accept it willingly.

“Now that we’ve got the food and drinks, we’re left with the entertainment. What’s the standard thing to do at this festival you guys are talking about?”

Jean asked Nagisa and me.

“Well, it varies from region to region, but in the simpler ones, there’s dancing, singing, and even shooting games and goldfish scooping at food stalls.”

He didn’t seem to understand about target shooting and goldfish scooping, but he nodded, so I guess he got the idea. After that, we called vendors, ordered a few things, and started making preparations.
