The Small Sage Will Try Her Best In The Different World From Lv.1! - Chapter 47
After receiving the official adoption papers from Leon-san who returned to the office, I officially became Yuuri Kuujou Owen!
A noble family’s adoption usually would take a lot of time, but it was Leon-san—the king’s younger brother—who requested for it.
According to Argo-san, the king was very enthusiastic towards his younger brother’s request, for Leon-san never depended on him… Could it be that the king of the Ares kingdom has a brother complex?
In the game, the two should be having a confrontation instead. As expected, this world is different from the game’s world, huh?
Even though they really resemble each other.
In the afternoon, various stalls were lined up in Izel fort’s courtyard.
It was pleasant to see that the knights who were usually tense, were now choosing items in the stalls in a slightly more relaxed atmosphere.
The stalls were selling food that were grilled on skewers, fruits juices, and a lot of other food that I had never seen in the Izel fort’s dining room.
As I took Amanda-san’s hand, I looked here and there, all around the courtyard.
That kushiyaki1, I wonder what meat it uses? The most famous meat is the horn rabbit meat, I guess?
Then there is Luco juice and… I wonder what they’re selling next to it? It’s yellow, so hmm… banana?
“Whoa. It’s like the summer festival.”
As I muttered unconsciously, Amanda-san asked, “What is summer festival?”
“When spring comes every year, there’s a festival where people dance and eat lots of delicious food from the stalls.”
The biggest festival in the neighbourhood is the one which is held in the famous temple.
The road leading to the main shrine would be packed with stalls and I would be looking forward the most to eating the delicious powdered rice cake which was sold at the one-of-a-kind rice cake store. When I was young, I used to eat cotton candy and get my face and hand sticky.
“Although there are no dances, I think there are a lot of delicious food. They’re also selling some souvenirs, so shall we take a look at them later?”
“Yes! I’m excited for it!”
I said as I looked around again. Then, Amanda-san said, “Don’t get lost, okay?”, and tightened her grip on my hand.
Ehehe. Amanda-san is really like my older sister.
I was so happy that I tightened my grip on her hand, and when I did so, Amanda-san’s red pupils squinted as she gently smiled.
“Do you have anything you want to eat, Yuuri-chan? I recommend the fruit juice. …Eh? I wonder what’s up with that crowd?”
When I followed Amanda-san’s line of sight, I found a crowd in the corner of the courtyard.
“What is it, I wonder?”
I wanted to go and see it as I expected that there would be something really amazing being sold, but I couldn’t see anything because it was too crowded and I was shorter than everyone.
“I can’t see it.”
Even Amanda-san couldn’t see it, so I wouldn’t be able to see it at all.
But I’m curious…
Perhaps hearing the voice of my heart, Noir jumped from my arms. Purun who was sitting on top of its head as usual then swiftly returned to my arms.
“Noir?”
“Nyaan.”
It was as if Noir was saying, “I’ll go and take a quick look,” as it then ran through the knights’ feet.
After a while, Noir returned and explained, “Nyaan, nyaanyaa.”
Yup. Cute.
But, sorry. I can’t understand what you’re saying at all…
Hmm… But when we’re in the middle of battles, we’d be able to understand each other’s intention quite well.
“Yuuri-chan. What is Noir saying?”
“Uhm…”
“Nyaa, nyaa, nyaa.”
Noir went up to my arms and hit Purun with its front paw.
“What’s wrong with Purun?”
“Nyaan, nyaanyaa.”
Noir’s front paw hit Purun even further.
“Hmm?”
As I tilted my head, not knowing what Noir wanted to say, Purun whose body was hit many times by Noir then rhythmically swayed its body, matching Noir’s hit.
Noir also began to play together with Purun.
jab, jab, jab
brr, brr, brr
jab, jab, jab
brr, brr, brr
“Hmm… I feel like they’re trying to say something, but I can’t tell.”
“…That’s right.”
“I’m curious, but shall we check out the crowd later?”
When I was about to leave as Amanda-san urged…
“Priest Frank, can you please cut it out?”
I heard a voice that called out to Frank-san.
Eh? Is Frank-san here?
And just now… though the voice was lower than it normally was, was it Simon-san? What are they doing here?
“Now, the next race is beginning. You should hurry up!”
…Eh, the voice just now, was it… Karin-san?!
