Upon observation, Erishe city does certainly appear to be making various kinds of preparations for the festival.
The street trees were being decorated with cloths of various colours; red, blue, green and white. The other citizens could be seen setting up the stalls and assembling something that looks similar to a turret.
Since there are still more than 10 days, I could tell that they are doing it at a leisurely pace.
…….Is it another world’s festival? I wonder if I would make a profit if I set up a stall.
The horse was left at the entrance of the town and as we walked, I started discussing with Rebecca on the things that we should do.
For the time being we decided to go to the slave trading house to confirm if Jephthah-shi is genuinely from the Solo’s household. We went on full assault in the information gathering about the mayor and started discussing on what would be the best gift.
At the same time, I conveyed to Rebecca-san directly on my newly obtained “guidance”.
I have already achieved two guidance in just two days in a row so the fact that I have obtained new ones surprised her. However, in the end, “Since you have 8 vocations as well, you must be really loved by Le Baraka, Jirou.” said Rebecca, seemingly convinced by it.
I tried asking Rebecca-san about the “???” but somehow she doesn’t know anything about it either.
From the guidance list, both “Try going to the mayor’s house” and “Fulfil the promise with the Imperial Trader” are also unmistakably related to this match. I was really surprised by it but the thought, “If even the Great Spirit are blessing me with these guidance then it should be fine to ride along with the story” came across me and I suddenly started feeling optimistic.
I was initially wondering if the Great Spirit was overestimating my ability but this could be natural in this world. I’m not really sure about it………….
Incidentally, I was having a doubt if we could have a choice of “not going along with the guidance” so I tried asking.
According to Rebecca-san, a portion of eccentric people who did not follow the guidance (well doing something totally opposite) suddenly couldn’t see their vocation board anymore possibly since it is an act against the spirit’s principle…..well there seems to be various reasons.
In other foreign countries, rather than believing in the spirit, there are also those who believed that the Fire God or the Goddess of Faith will make the country stronger. Those countries apparently did not seem to receive the blessings of the Great Spirit (Le Baraka). How do I put it, there appears to be quite a number of deity beings in this other world.
