After breakfast conclusion, Gawain has not started to handle the territory business as usual immediately, but stopped by calling out Hetty that is about to leave: „What important matter in the morning that side government affairs hall has?”
„No,” Hetty is perplexed, but replied, „winter work plan has arranged, this morning only then some everyday concerns-- can give the assistant to process.”
„That first should not be busy the government affairs hall, accompanies me to go to the city to walk.”
After dozen minutes, Gawain and Hetty then arrived at the central block in Cecil city, but Amber took the guard also together to follow.
Walks the street in this newborn city, what heading on being the Cecil city is in sole possession of the vitality and vigor, what by the ear transmits is sounds of people and carriages and horses sound continuously, the line of sight institute and is full of vigor, enrichment, but healthy resident, although now already since late autumn, because the Giant Sun activeness reduces, weather day by day cold, but these permits have not affected the life of Cecil person coldly slightly-- on the contrary, because opening of north bank Xincheng District big pile of new projects, the innumerable job and life opportunity is attracting the increasing number of people to join this place city, takes the job, Cecil at this moment, and any time in the past was the same.
However before more than two years, this matter can hardly be imagined merely regarding the Ainz people-- even this can hardly be imagined to north continent any country.
Whenever walks the street in Cecil city, Gawain will then arise spontaneously a gratified feeling, this gratified feeling will also let he feels himself living in this world clearly the fact, making him realize that oneself already and this world has the inseparable relation, realized since oneself continuously the effort and motion have had the significance.
Amber follows side Gawain, she somewhat strangely looked at latter one, as if looked like from that in the quite dignified face saw the little difference: As the guard of feudal lord, she follows in Gawain time even is longer than Hetty and Rebecca, no matter wants, she has been familiar with the detail in Gawain each expression, she can see Gawain to have the concern, but actually does not know that should ask.
Is good because of another side with Hetty, Hetty perhaps was also inferior that Amber is good at watching a person's every mood, but she is a careful sensitive person, after some hesitates, this „majordomo” care opened the mouth: „Ancestor, do you have the concern?”
Gawain really has concern-- he in thinking deeply about outside rock fort that civil war, thinks deeply about the time of Cecil duchy also several years of calm and steady development, thinks deeply about the threats of other God of Holy Light and gods, will think deeply about these quietly nearly one year of evil believer in fermenting the new plot, but in Hetty slightly some lines of sight of worry, he seemingly at will said: „After Lu Ancheng stills,...... We can develop relieved for several years.”
„If you said,” Hetty lowered the head slightly, „part of production and construction plans have arranged to the second half of next year, so long as the exterior situation big change, the following several years has not been the duchy most essential period of expansion.”
„Yes...... The premise was the exterior situation big change......” Gawain has not been saying slowly, in the mind cannot help but has actually thought country that formidable and eyed covetously: Typhon, that walked in transformation crucial intersection Empire, how long will also look on Ainz civil war? Actually they prepare what degree, when Ainz as feeble as does begin?
Perhaps should accelerate Daniel that side arrangement......
However the Gawain's thinking on a scene by not far away street was broken suddenly.
He noticed that one group of people walk from the street corner, on everyone neck wears with the grass link that some iron grey bushes weave, in their hands is carrying the pocket, and pulls out the white little flower from the pocket unceasingly, on each leaf of door along the way, he do not note the pedestrians on many road also to wear white little flower suddenly actually-- some wear in the neckband, some on the hat, there are simply takes in the hand.
„What situation is that?” Gawain raised the hand is pointing at not far away, „what are they making?”
Amber looked at one toward that side, spoke thoughtlessly saying: „, Two days have been the Anling festivals, in the city many people are preparing.”
„Anling festival?” Gawain is confused, „is a holiday? Last year had?”
Does not know is the misconception, the Hetty speech time suddenly has some scruple: „Last year...... Last year actually also had the festive event, but the territory was very not calm and steady at that time, the commodity was also very tight, only then the activity of some small scale, you have not paid attention very much probably.”
„Is this?” Gawain somewhat was still puzzled, „how do I never know this holiday?”
Hetty looked at Gawain one, the complexion somewhat is slightly strange: „This holiday...... You do not know that is also normal. It in you in the past...... After dying in battle, had. On every year Frost Month on the 45 th, the people must to wear the grass link, decorate the dead chrysanthemum, to hold at night the way of bonfire ceremony as well as dance on the door and clothes commemorate the dead, communicates with the soul of dead.”
„, After I ‚die,’ the holiday, no wonder,” Gawain is suddenly enlighted, then awakes the taste to come, „and other meetings, Frost Month on the 45 th? That is not I 700 years ago last on battlefield......”
„Such that such as you think,” the expression on Hetty face was stranger, „this holiday is to commemorate your-- at first is only the commemorative ceremony that the Cecil territory people spontaneously hold, then other First King Charlie and Founding Duke also respectively held commemorated your activity, has waited till the Ainz 27 years, it became a nationwide holiday......”
Gawain: „......”
Was this meaning two days of entire Ainz people must put on the flower to roast collectively catches fire to sing and dance celebrates his death anniversary?!
He was wants same to say one to Nicholas Egg at this time really „mother”, but considered that the ancestor vivid good and evil has borne forcefully, but he could not bear the whole face whisper strangely: „Your this...... It is not, I lived, everybody this holiday had not thought that which has is not right?”
„Does not have the means...... After all 700 years......” the expression on Hetty face intertwined dead quickly, but she knows that the ancestor affirmed at this moment also intertwines , can only brace oneself to explain, „the origin of this holiday became the content that in the historical book can write, only then the aristocrat and scholar know 12--, moreover is studies quite fine that regarding the general publics, the Anling festival evolved is an ordinary holiday, is they commemorates the ancestor, to console the ancestors and communication soul as well as prays to seek the safe day...... This...... You should understand......”
„I......” Gawain had mildew perspiration of forehead, but made an effort to deliberately consider, he discovered that oneself also really can only understand-- „” died for 700 years, except the initial several years beyond, generations of Ainz was already used to commemorate the ancestor on this day, in this had the true God and majority of meter offering a sacrifice to holiday with the gods related world, this perhaps was only one offers a sacrifice to the holiday with the meter that the god had nothing to do with, why didn't he understand can also?
„Good, I understood, I understood,” Gawain has a headache is rubbing the forehead, this flash, he suddenly thought the own beforehand that many concerns directly have stepped down to the second line, „celebration celebrates......”
Hetty relaxed, she a moment ago was anxious must die, although after all this holiday was „commemorative great ancestor”, theoretically is full of the glorious matter, but ancestor crawled after the coffin also thinks that this matter was worth commemorative that discussing separately, gave the devil his due, she did not think that the people in nation gathered round bonfire dancing to commemorate own death anniversary are worth happy matter--, moreover they also every year did one time......
But this tone just the loosen came out not to breathe heavily with enough time uniform, by, the sporty sound that transmitted suddenly breaking: „Lord Ancestor! Paternal aunt! Also has Amber! You here!”
Hetty looks up, was seeing that the Rebecca jumping belt/bring jumps to run continually from the distant place, moreover her first saw in that silly roe deer grabs one in a big way dead chrysanthemum......
At the scene she clearly and realized calmly: The notch, was finished.
Such a dumbfounded time, Rebecca then ran up to front of the Gawain three people, this girl is greeted with Gawain first cheerfully, then looks to Hetty: „Paternal aunt! The Anling festival drew near yeah, we had missed last year, this year should want normally?”
Hetty almost lowers sound with clenched jaws: „auspicious- shell- card--”
Rebecca had not realized that which atmosphere has is not right: „Ah?”
Hetty opened mouth, just about to reminds this girl to recall the origin of Anling festival, has not actually thought that one side looked on half-day Amber to open the mouth peacefully suddenly: „Said how your Cecil Family member does celebrate the Anling festival?”
Amber, the outstanding Military Intelligence Bureau head, the spy chief, the intelligence warfare and sabotage activity expert, textbook level opinion warfare „Lu secure awakens” one of the event maximum promoters, the life has three big special skills: Steals the grave to dig up a grave, sneaks away to travel, as well as provokes anger.
Rebecca fell in the pit directly, started to say especially happily: „Actually the majority of contents are the same with everybody-- daytime time the dead chrysanthemum decoration under the entrance and windowsill, this can let the road that the ancestors found to go home, then in the evening holds the bonfire party, eats and drinks, dances anything, but must prepare food, entertains the soul of ancestor, next morning time receives all the dead chrysanthemum, delivers to the family tomb them, this can return to the soul to the place that they sleep soundly......”
Rebecca was saying, while looks to Gawain: „Right Lord Ancestor, you want......?”
Gawain unemotionally looks at Rebecca: „Or do you this flower in the hand give me directly? You who can also save toss about.”
Rebecca: „......”
Gawain looks to Hetty , to continue unemotionally: „This child's history has not learned also then-- told her then nobody the origin issue of Anling festival? The good and evil is family successor.”
Rebecca responded at this time finally thoroughly, bringing cold sweat of skull to stand all of a sudden the body: „I...... I know! Anling festival to commemorate Founding Duke Gawain at first? Commemoration that Cecil holds, officially becomes in the Ainz 27 years a holiday......”
Gawain could not bear knock skull of this silly roe deer: „Your this does not know!”
Rebecca is rubbing knocked place: „I have not responded......”
Gawain is resigned-looking: Such can in magic technology and talent head of mechanical realm seamless cut, how in other domain then straightforward with end necrosis?
Rebecca is paying attention to Gawain's expression change while is shrinking the neck: „That...... Our family/home has not wanted the Anling festival...... Lord Ancestor you also lived in any case.”
However Gawain does not have first to give answer, he looks on not far away street these crowd that prepares for the Anling festival, in the heart actually suddenly flood a strange feeling.
After the short thinking, he broke finally silent: „Anling festival...... Must have, this year I and you cross together.”
Not only this time was Hetty and Rebecca stares in a big way the eye, Amber that side saw a play was startled: „Ha?! What hobby are you?”
„The person who crawls from the coffin has not needed to commemorate, but another souls...... Needs to console,” Gawain shouted the tone gently, „old Cecil that fire...... Past two years.”
