Black haired wise man Chiyuki

"Oh, Gypsies, the great Gypsies, the golden land ruled by the great lion, forever shining and lighting up the world.

　Lovely cat people dancing girls dance.
　The golden ornaments with bells tinkling in the air as they move their hands.
　The goatmen play stringed instruments and flutes, and the music is joyful.

This is the prelude to the celebration, gentlemen. This is the prelude to a feast. Drink and eat your fill.

　The beast gods cheered as Sekmetra, the queen, said with a cup of barley wine (ale) in hand.
　The women of the Sphinx give instructions to the cat lady's maidservants, and liquor and food are brought to them one after another.
　A lot of liquor and meat dishes are laid out in front of them.
　A monkey-man cook, like a baboon, is carving a whole roasted cow and dividing it among the high-ranking beast gods.
　Other dishes include pork belly cutlets and stewed shoulders of pork that have been breaded and then fried in fruit oil.
　Lamb skewers sprinkled with rock salt. Roasted venison. Rabbit and vegetable soup. Chicken teriyaki with fish sauce and other extravagant dishes.

It's a great feast. Chiyuki.

　Rage next to me says with a surprised look on his face.

'Yeah, ...... right.'

　Rage is right, it's an amazing feast.
　Come to think of it, this is the first time I've attended a feast for the divine race.
　At one point Reena hosted a feast in the temple, but it wasn't this robust.
　Nevertheless, it all looks delicious.
　There are vegetables, but the proportion of meat dishes is high because the lion queen is hosting it.
　The beast gods chewed on the meat and washed away the juices and fat in their mouths with alcohol in between eating other meats.
　If they continued to eat like this, they would have to wait for gout.
　But I don't know if there is gout in this world.
　Well, I'll have a feast too.
　The beef was grilled with fish sauce and honey, and the hot juices spread in my mouth.
　In this world, mutton is common and beef is rarely eaten.
　Beef is not eaten because it is used for farming.
　We eat it when we are old and unable to work.
　But such beef is not very tasty and hard.
　But the beef we are eating now is tender and very tasty.
　It is indeed beef prepared for the gods to eat.
　I eat the beef with hugs and hugs. I'm very happy with it.
　Other meats may also be delicious.
　I look at the various meat dishes.
　I was a little worried about it, but there is no human meat.
　Apparently, people used to eat human meat too.
　But one day, Queen Sekhmetra changed her mind when her husband, the god Heybos, gave her a glass of red barley wine (ale) made by humans.
　If I have the wisdom and ability to make such a delicious drink, I should stop eating it. That's what he thought.
　From then on, Sekhmetra stopped eating any living being with the wisdom to create something.
　The same is true of his household, the Sphinxes.
　This is where the story of the sphinx's eating them if they couldn't solve the mystery comes from.

"Hmmm, I wonder if you guys have been drinking?

　Someone will be right where we are.

"Mr. Bruhl?

　Bruul, the goddess of scorpions.

"Bruul is fine. I'll call you Chiyuki in return. I didn't think you'd be able to find Istia. You're not with them?

Ishtia would have been taken by the princess.

　Rage was right, just before the feast began, Ishtia was taken by Nell, Sekmetra's daughter.
　I don't know why.

'Princess Nell? That's unusual. That's okay. I'd like to introduce myself. Raige, the brave one, and Chiyuki, the wise one with dark hair. I'm Buluul. I'm sorry about earlier. I would have given you the poison, but it seemed like the allies were trying to get you to take back the pyramid.

　After all, yes, Bruul seemed to know Sekmetra's intentions.

'I don't mind. Even if they give you poison for free, when you're in trouble, yes, you can't say goodbye.

Well, that's good to hear.

　Bruul gives him a relieved look.

'But more importantly, can you tell me what a good drink is? There's so many things to choose from, it's hard to decide which one to drink first. Can you tell me which one is better?

　Saying that, he points to the liquor on display.
　Rage is right, there is a wide variety of drinks as well as food.
　You'll get confused.
　It seems that Sekmetra, the lion queen, loves alcohol.
　I've heard that she imports various alcoholic beverages from all over the world, in addition to those made at Gypsiel.
　Barley wine (ale) is commonly drunk.
　As a matter of fact, even in this world, when you go into an izakaya, you are likely to say "barley wine (ale)" at first.
　However, Gypsial is a barley growing region, and I've already tasted enough of the specialty barley wine (ale) before coming here.
　I would like to try other drinks.
　Candidates include wine, mead and date.

Well, then," he said, "I'll tell you my special one. Well, I'll tell you about my best ones.

　Bruul says this and tells the cat lady's handmaid what to do.
　After a moment, the maid brings three pale yellow drinks in a crystal cup.

'Wow, I've never seen these drinks before. What's your name?

'This is a liquor made mainly of life water made from honey reeds, mixed with a small amount of wine life water and the juice of sweet and sour fruits. It's called Scorpion because I like to drink it. Now drink it.

　Bruul explains.
　A honey reed is a sugar cane.
　There is sugar cane in this world as well, and it is commonly referred to as honey reed.
　Since there is sugar cane, there is sugar in this world as well.
　And the water of life is a distilled liquor.
　And the fact that it's mixed with many other things means that this drink is a cocktail.
　Rage and I take the crystal cup and drink the cocktail.

"Oh, it's delicious.

　I took a sip, slightly sweet and sour, gentle on the palate, a drink that women would like.

It's definitely delicious. Thank you, Bruul. For showing me a good drink.

　Bruul's face turns a little red when Rage thanks him.
　I knew it, I'm a face-eater.

''Even so, it's a relief that you guys came. It's dangerous to send the prince to the battlefield, and I'm worried about the war god, Isdes, alone.

　Bruul looks at Rage, cocktail in hand.

'The other male gods were unreliable, and then you showed up. You are a true hero. And you're here with a very nice man. Look, all the goddesses and ladies here are looking at you.

　Speaking of which, I have a feeling that the women here are looking at Rage.
　They seem to be looking for an opportunity to call out to her the same way they did to Bruul.

'I can't say this in front of the prince, but that's why Ishtia is going after him.

　Bruul replies, shaking his head.

'What do you mean by me? Lord Bruul.

　You are approached from the side.
　A shadow if you ask me.
　It's Halseth who has come.
　Behind him are his mistresses, the Sphinxes, and his attendants, the falcon-headed bird people (birdmen).

''Prince? No, it's nothing.

　Halseth suddenly appears and Bruul is upset.
　As expected, he wouldn't be able to stay calm if his mother was after another man.

'What can I do for you? A prince?

　Rage says mischievously.

"Hm. I have no use for you. Harses here has come to see you.

　Halseth stands in front of me as I say this.

'What? Me?

It's good to see you again, Your Highness. Your Highness.

　Halseth gives me a gentle smile.

'Yi, no. I didn't know you were such a princess. ......

　I feel my face turn red.
　Halseth looks like a winged lion and a superimposed human figure, but he is more of a human.
　And, like Ishtia, she's beautiful.
　That beautiful figure stares at me, which makes me nervous.

''Huh, unlike the last time I saw you. What do I call you if I don't call you a princess, as you are so beautifully dressed?

　I'm not dressed in my usual robes right now.
　It's a slightly more revealing, gypseal-style dress.
　I borrowed it from Ishtia, who loves extravagant outfits, so it would certainly be a princess-like outfit.

You can't take your eyes off of you since we met again. I'm sure you'll be happy to see me.

　Halseth comes face to face with him.
　But Rage blocks him with his hand.

'Prince. Will you stop recruiting people's friends? You'll have your girlfriends behind you.

　Rage forces himself between me and Harses and points to the Sphinx behind me.

''Are you trying to interrupt me? This dark-haired girl is the goddess of knowledge. I would love to welcome you to the Gypseal.

I'm sorry, but that's not how it works. Chiyuki is my goddess of knowledge, you know. We can't give her away.

　Rage smiles inappropriately.

"After all, it seems I am destined to fight you. Don't expect to get beaten up as easily as you did before.

Phew, I'll take you down as many times as I can.

　Rage and Halseth glare at each other.
　Oh no, a fight is about to start.
　I look at Sekmetra.
　Rage would be able to stop me, but I have a feeling that Harses can't stop it without Sekhmetra.
　Sekhmetra notices me and comes to me.
　Thank God she's going to stop me.

"Huh? Are we fighting over the black-haired sage? Good! Halseth! I'll stop you if you're in danger! Both of you can go to your hearts content!

　It didn't work!
　Sekmetra doesn't seem to have any intention of stopping the fight itself.
　Those who were around him are moving away from Rage and Halseth.

''If our ally doesn't stop it, then I won't have anything to do either. Come on, Chiyuki. Let's back off.

Hello? Brule.

　I'm pulled by the Bruul.
　This! Oh, no! We've got to do something!

'What? What do you think they're doing?

　Ishtia's voice from the outfield.
　It looks like he's finally back.
　However, even if the festival-loving Ishtia came back, things wouldn't change.
　Everyone who was there, including me, looks at Ishtia.

「「「「 eh? 」」」」

　The surprise of all of them.
　They are not surprised to see Ishtia.
　They are surprised to see one girl that Ishtia has with her.
　Ishtia takes the girl's hand and goes towards Rage and the others.
　All of the people present are looking at the girl.
　Because the girl is so beautiful.
　I also can't take my eyes off the girl.
　She is dressed in Gipsyll style with golden ornaments, and her long blue-black hair is decorated with golden falcons.
　She is short and slender, but where it shows, it shows.
　Her breasts are quite large. They must be bigger than mine.
　She is small compared to Ishtia and Raina, but that's a bad comparison to make.
　She wears revealing clothes, so the whiteness of her skin is clearly visible.
　Like Ishtia, her chest is wide open, so her large breasts seem to spill out.
　Her face is small and well-groomed, and her large eyes are made up with gypseal-style red shadow.
　Who could it be? Who is this beautiful girl?
　The girl is blushing, as if embarrassed by her costume.
　It's very prim and attention-grabbing.

'Um! Lord Ishtia! Please don't pull it so hard!

　I've heard that voice before. But I can't remember who it is.

'It's fine...it's fine...it looks like I was kind of in the middle of taking in something, but that's okay, right? Then, who the hell is this girl?

　Ishtia shows the beautiful girl to Rage and Halseth, who are frozen in place with a surprised look on their faces.

''I, Lord Ishtia, ...... I am not a spectacle ......''

　But Ishtia didn't listen to the beautiful girl's protests.

'Isn't she amazingly pretty? I didn't expect it to change so much.'

'Please don't! Lord Ishtia! I'm going now! I've been keeping you waiting!

　The beautiful girl shakes off Ishtia's hand and heads quickly towards the door that she came in.
　Nell, the princess, is standing at the door.
　Is it Nell who is waiting for her?
　The beautiful girl goes to Nell's place and leaves with her.
　All of us have frozen in place, not knowing what's going on with the beautiful girl who suddenly appeared.
　It's only after a while after they left that they were able to move.

''Ishtia! What the hell was that beautiful girl you just saw?!

'Mother! Who is that beautiful girl you were talking about?!

　Rage and Halseth crowded in on Ishtia, who kept looking at the door that the beautiful girl had left.

'Oh God! Oh, Tona! I was just getting dressed!

　Ishtia says ruefully as she looks at the door.
　All of them are surprised by his words.
　Was that Totoona?
　I had no idea since she usually wears a thick robe and a wide brimmed hat.
　I didn't know that dressing up would change her like that. Quite surprising.
　Neither Rage nor Halseth looked at me at all.
　The fighting had stopped, but I couldn't explain what was going on.




I'm a pervert by all accounts, but at least put a gentleman on it, Kuroki.



　Kittens of adorable fairy cats (Ketsey) dance.
　When they move their bodies with a near-nya, their bell-ringed necklaces chirp adorably.
　They're so adorable, but sometimes that's not what they're about right now.
　After all, I've played polo with all my might in front of Totona.
　Totona almost fainted when she saw it.
　She regained consciousness so quickly that she was undressed before she even knew it was happening! I wasn't really enjoying the feeling of freedom! I gave him an excuse, but I don't know if he was convinced.
　Nell didn't seem to mind. Is it because wild animals are basically naked?
　The cute little fairy cats (Ketsey) dancing can be said to be completely naked.
　The little fairy cat (Ketsey) in front of me is dancing while flailing her kittens.
　...... compared to the cats.
　It's not good to be completely naked.
　That's why I wrapped a cloth around my waist, having stopped dressing as Medjed.

It's a good thing that you're able to do that. Didn't you like the dance?

　One of the fairy cats (Ketsey) asks anxiously.

'No! No! That's not true! It's so cute!

　I gave her an anxious look and she panicked.

'Is that so? Now, would you like a drink?

　A fairy cat (Ketsey) holds a crystal bottle of alcohol.
　The liquor is called lion's milk and is a high alcohol content drink.
　The liquor is made from date palm or grapes distilled and flavored with anise.
　It is clear like water, but when mixed with water it turns milky white.
　It is called "lion's milk" because it looks like milk.
　The milk of the lion is an aperitif, which is served with an appetizer.
　For this reason, the appetizers are laid out in front of me.
　Goat's cheese and lettuce.
　A dish similar to cabbage rolls made of ground beef padded with grape leaves.
　Chickpeas mashed and sprinkled with sesame seeds, salt and pepper.
　Small fish fried in fruit oil, etc.
　But I can't eat it just yet.

Thank you," he said, "but I can't eat it yet. But you can't eat it just yet. Tona and Princess Nell haven't come back yet.

　After regaining consciousness, Tona consulted with Nell and left the room.
　She wanted to change into whatever she was wearing.
　And she wants her to wait for her.
　That's why I'm alone, waiting for Tona and Nell while being entertained by the cats.

Is that so? Well then, would you like to read a book?

'What? Do you have a book?

"Yes, sir. Tona likes books. She leaves books here for the princess to read.

　Okay, I'm a little curious. What books do you recommend?

Oh, what books do they have?

Yes, mamma.

　Saying this, Ketsey, the fairy cat, brings a book to me.

"It's a popular book among us these days.

　They give me a book, but I can't read it because it's written in gypseal letters.
　I can manage to communicate with them by magic, but not the letters.
　There is a picture of a cat on the cover.
　Perhaps it is a story about a cat.

'What's this book called?'

　I asked with interest.

'This is a book called "Puss in Boots". It's a book about a man named Kuroki, compiled by Totona-sama.

　I'm almost blown away when I hear that.
　Come to think of it, I once told Totona a story about a cat in boots.
　To begin with, myself and Totoona met through a book.
　Totoona is the custodian of the books that Lugus left to Elios. Lugas introduced me to this world, which I had been wanting to learn more about.
　That's when I got to know Totoona.
　Looking back now, I think Totona was a great help to me in the beginning.
　I hadn't fully memorized the letters yet, so I asked Tona a lot of times what was written in the book.
　I remember Tona looking a little annoyed.
　I still feel that I did a bad thing.
　But even though I didn't like the fact that I couldn't remember things very well, he was able to teach me, which helped.
　And by the time I was able to read a book without having to rely on Totona for most of my life, I think he started to open up to me a little more.
　And that's when I told him about the cat in the boots.
　This fairy cat (Ketsey) doesn't seem to realize that he is that croak.
　I take the book from the fairy cat (Ketsey).
　I flick through the book and see the illustrations of a cat wearing boots and an ogre king.
　I can't help but laugh.
　Tona seemed very interested when I told her this story.
　That's what made us get along so well, but if I was branded as a pervert with a round p*n*s and disliked it, it would be no good to me.
　That's why I'm scared to hold Tona with trepidation.

'Sorry to keep you waiting, Kroki,'

　Tona's voice.
　Apparently, it's coming back.
　I look up and look in the direction of the voice.
　At that moment, I freeze.
　There was a beautiful girl standing there, a beautiful girl comparable to Raina and Kuna.
