Autumn was the most beautiful time of the four seasons in Weibin.
And it was a uniquely beautiful time.
It is the most remote territory among small countries in the eastern corner, and its only boasts are its flat terrain and mild climate, so almost all of its residents are engaged in agriculture.
Since it was Wibin, there was nothing to be proud of other than the gold emanating from the wheat fields.
The world was in the midst of upheaval as steam engines and pure magic collided, but here, such events felt like something from a world far away.
It will take a little longer for the changing times to have an impact here.
I guess it was good.
Elric looked out the window at the field where wheat was being harvested.
Even in the cool weather, sweat was forming on the farmers’ cheeks.
Working while bending down seems truly arduous.
However, what doesn’t seem all that sad is that,
“Looks like it’s a good harvest.”
Because I could see the joy blooming on their faces.
“Yes, the harvest this year is particularly large. “This will be the second time in the past 10 years, and the first time you have seen it since you were born.”
I nodded at Rdio’s words.
Certainly, in Elric’s memory, there had never been a Wibin filled with wheat so densely.
beautiful.
The scenery of the wheat fields shining brightly and red as the sun slowly set was on a completely different level from the dreary battlefield.
As his mind became more peaceful, Elric’s expression also became softer.
It was like that.
“hmm?”
Elric found Tyria near the entrance to the mansion.
As if she had spotted Elric, she turned her gaze directly toward the window and then briefly lowered her head.
Elric smiled and waved his hand.
When I looked at her, something came to mind.
‘Harvest festival is coming soon.’
This was my second time participating in a festival-like festival since I was a child.
One time, it was an imperial banquet that I attended along with Elber Graham.
Thinking back to that day, Elric felt a bit out of breath and felt nervous, but quickly shook his head.
‘… No, it is absurd to compare Weibin’s festival with the banquet of the imperial nobles.’
Isn’t this a festival place where people always run around and have fun in the first place?
This festival cannot be like a battlefield for nobles wielding the swords of language.
All I had to do was help Tyria finish her speech well.
“Rdio.”
“yes.”
“wealth… How is his speech being prepared?”
“You write your own speech. Just like the matriarch did.”
“Well, since he knows the etiquette of nobles, he must also have a talent for writing.”
“Actually, last year’s speech was pretty good. “He played a big role in controlling public sentiment during the confusion caused by the death of the head of the family.”
“Ah, now that I think about it, the timing coincided.”
I feel like I’m curious about that speech again.
If I ask, will you answer? I would have answered it, but when I asked again, I felt embarrassed again.
‘It is done. ‘Why should I keep asking about such things?’
Elric shook off his thoughts.
“Let’s have dinner soon. “That person also came home after finishing work.”
“yes.”
Leaving the window and going to the restaurant, Elric went down to have dinner with Grittyria.
The two are now having dinner together.

A few mornings later, Tyria spoke at dinner.
“By any chance, would you be able to go out with me today?”
“Keck!”
At the sudden remark, Elric committed the uncultured act of spewing out the water he had been drinking.
For a moment, Hwanggeup wiped his mouth and looked at Tyria.
She didn’t seem to care much… .
“Work, work.”
… For some reason, he hastily answered with an excuse.
“The residents of the territory are decorating the square for the harvest festival. It’s something we’ve always done, so there isn’t much to fix, but we need to do safety inspections just in case, so I asked if we could do that together. Now you have to learn this too… .”
As Tyria said this, her eyes instantly turned to Elric’s legs.
“… “If that’s not possible, I’ll go alone.”
“no. “Let’s go together.”
It is also ridiculous to refuse to do something that was first recommended.
Although there was an ugly example, it honestly wasn’t that difficult.
Wouldn’t it be nice to be there and watch her work?
Standing is possible with just one leg.
“Are you okay?”
“There’s nothing that can’t be done.”
At that moment, the distance between Tyria’s eyebrows widened slightly.
It was a very subtle difference, and the reason Elric noticed her was as a result of observing her with his superhuman eyesight.
He seems satisfied.
“Fortunately, the. “There are some things you have to do as the head of a family that are difficult to learn outside of this period.”
That was the reason.
Elric smiled and responded.
“Well, thank you for your consideration.”
You’ll do it again next year anyway… I didn’t want to break the magical power by saying things like that, so I said it vaguely.
“Then let’s leave around lunchtime.”
“Why don’t you go right away?”
“… “You need to be prepared.”
“oh.”
Oh my, now that I think about it, a woman needs a lot more time to prepare for going out than a man.
Elric scolded himself and nodded.
“I understand. Then, please call me as soon as you are ready.”
“yes.”
Tyria responded and stood up.
There was some food left.
‘Do you have no appetite?’
Elric didn’t know that she had forgotten to eat because she was so excited and went to prepare.

Elric was a person who was very far from the concept of dressing up.
He was a man who believed that the role of clothes was to cover important body parts and relieve the cold of war on a winter day, and as such, he was a man whose fashion sense was at a hopeless level.
The disaster was predicted.
“Master, what on earth is that like?”
“hmm? “I dressed up appropriately because I was leaving the estate for official business.”
“It seems like the concept of ‘dressing up’ has changed without my knowledge.”
Rdio’s lament was natural.
Elric’s appearance was so bad that I couldn’t even open my eyes.
It was mid-autumn, and he was wearing a sleeveless shirt, a tie, and a brown vest over it. The pants were fluttering at the bottom, and his shoes were white and sharp enough to kill someone.
She has such a terrible appearance that it makes me wonder where she got those clothes from, but I guess she’s the only one who doesn’t know that and has a proud face on her face, which makes my heart ache.
Rdio said, pressing his eyebrows.
“… “I think it would be a good idea to change.”
“hmm? Is it bad? “As I wander around the world, I’ve heard that this kind of outfit shows off one’s manhood.”
“What kind of person does that?”
mercenary.
Elric swallowed those words.
It was an outfit taken from a story told by a mercenary who had revealed an enemy woman in the West to a group of nearby soldiers.
Even though I was 15 years old, I clearly remember that he was actually a pretty handsome guy.
A man like that wouldn’t have said something about a sloppy outfit.
‘Of course, that fashion sense couldn’t save my life.’
Did he die with his head cut off?
It was a moment when Elric was lost in memories.
“Hurry up and change. Madam like this… .”
“Can I come in?”
Tyria’s voice rang outside the door.
Rdio felt a chill running down his spine.
That was before I could even stop him.
“Oh, come in.”
“yes.”
Squeak-
The door opened.
Rdio closed his eyes tightly, and Elric grinned.
“You came… .”
Elric’s mouth, which had been saying a greeting, closed.
His eyes followed her blankly.
The not-so-thick clothes seemed to emphasize simplicity, and they gave Elric a thrilling sense of unfamiliarity.
A white dress that runs straight from the neck to the ankles and a dark-colored shawl draped over the shoulders draw a flowing line. What stood out even more was the nape of her neck and thin ankles that were revealed with her hair tied up.
With an elegant appearance and a small head, the proportion between clothes and body was admirable, and the drooping eye corners and long eyelashes further deepened the mysterious and unrealistic atmosphere.
“Uh… .”
The moment he was about to say something, Elric felt her eyes turn to his clothes.
I bowed my head.
At that moment, Elric felt his mind go cold.
‘Why am I dressed like this?’
It felt like waking up from a nightmare.
The thought of walking next to her in this outfit gave me goosebumps.
Only when you have something to compare yourself to do you come to your senses.
Elric raised his head and saw it.
“… .”
Tyria’s pupils were shaking as if there was an earthquake.
It was definitely the first time she had shown such deep emotions.
Tyria’s mouth opened.
“Maybe you didn’t want to leave… .”
“no. I wore it for a while to make fun of R.D.O. She will change in a moment. “I’m sorry I’m late.”
Lies came out like clear water.
Rdio’s face was momentarily filled with doubt, but it soon turned into a smile.
“It was fun.”
“I’m glad you did.”
Elric expressed his gratitude to Rdio with a glance.
In the meantime, I just wish.
I hope she doesn’t despise me when she sees me like this.
