    Side Story – People’s Day #3

    “Yingying yaing.”

    “Yingying yaing.”

    “ing.”

    “Gyuiing?”

    Ying Ying Yaing the choir spoke with strange cries as always. To those who don’t know it, it may sound like the dialect of cursed animals, but…

    In fact, they were having serious and deep thoughts about what hymn to sing at the sodomy festival this evening.

    Sze-.

    The reason they stopped talking was because someone came into the choir room.

    She had a platinum necklace around her neck and wore a high-cone hat like a witch.

    Her name is─.

    “Yinging yaing!”

    “Yinging yaing!”

    Her name was not Yingyingyaing, it was Watson.

    Court mage Watson.

    She was quite a famous person, and she was also an honorary choir member of the Ying Ying Yaing choir.

    “How are you all? I sent a letter, but it’s been a few months since I visited Sodomy in person, right? Has anything happened so far?”

    Watson asked the choir members.

    The choir members only answered “inging yaing.” or “inging yaing.”.

    Looking at that, Watson also said “inging yaing.”.

    “Yingying yaing.”

    “ing.”

    A world where all conversations consist of ying-ing-yaing.

    Here was a world where everyone understood each other better, did not cause misunderstandings, and did not lie.

    Watson felt refreshed, as if his aching heart was being relieved.

    ‘Yes, this is comfortable.’

    Watson was a little tired of court life.

    This is because it was the daily routine for the people in the court to lie to each other as if they were wearing masks, talk around and belittle each other, and be envious and jealous of each other.

    Watson had dreamed of becoming a court wizard almost his whole life, but the reality was different from the noble banquets, balls, and social gatherings of princes and princesses in fairy tales.

    ‘I think I know why my father Thorin liked to wander around the world instead of staying at the court!’

    Watson’s father, Thorin, was a man called a strange man.

    However, Watson finally came to understand his father during his long life as a court wizard.

    There was no such thing as a pleasant life at court.

    I was all over the wide world and had fun meeting people.

    “Yingying yaing.”

    Watson said.

    There were very few people at the court who understood this “Yingying language,” so they had to speak plainly, but there was no need for that here.

    There is no need to decorate yourself.

    “Yingying yaing.”

    An evening festival prepared with that feeling.

    “Rust’s Birthday”.

    This birthday was scheduled to be held on a grand scale like never before in the kingdom, and everyone was busy preparing for it.

    “Yingying yaing.”

    Watson had also come to Sodomi to help with various preparations for the “fireworks” that would be held at this festival.

    Since ancient times, “fireworks” have been one of the volunteer activities that wizards provide to people, and Watson also dreamed of becoming a wizard thanks to the fireworks his father Thorin showed people when he was young.

    “Hmm… .”

    However, perhaps because she did not understand Watson’s dialect, the girl with healthy tanned brown skin and impressive freckles and a ponytail kept getting lost in thought.

    It looked like a member of the temple who had just been baptized. It was virtually impossible for newly baptized temple members to understand speaking in tongues, so Watson had no choice but to open his mouth and explain.

    “This time, we are going to send swallows up into the sky during the fireworks display, so prepare them in advance.”

    “I know. But there are many types of swallows. I was wondering which swallow would be better, the southern swallow or the northern swallow.”

    Tiyong-.

    Watson felt like something like a spring was bouncing inside his body. Did this newly baptized girl understand her own language?

    Looking at it, I could see that he had quite a bit of talent.

    “Of course, the southern swallow with its colorful feathers would be better.”

    “Adella! Come and help me make the sign!”

    “Yes!”

    A girl named Adela ran far away when people called her.

    As Watson was looking at this, someone came running toward him.

    “Aunt Watson is looking at this mini… !”

    It was a mini called Mini Lucy.

    Watson was very happy to see the little child running around, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

    “Minnie, have you already been to sodomy? Mom is? What about my father and others?”

    “Other people say it’s okay… ! My aunt wants me to quickly show her that this is a gift she prepared for that mini… ! I’m so excited that I haven’t been able to sleep since yesterday… !”

    “Gift? Yes, yes. I’ll show you.”

    Sze-.

    Watson unfolded the magic cloth tied to his waist.

    Then, something that looked like a fluffy ball of fur popped out, and its body was light blue and looked exactly like a cloud of fluff.

    ━Yinging yaing.

    “Isn’t it fascinating? One day, this animal was sitting on a tree branch in the palace garden and resting. It was named Cloud Ring because it looks like a cloud.”

    ━Yinging yaing.

    It was a cute animal that spoke the language of ‘ying-ying-yaing’. Its personality was as soft and friendly as its appearance, and it seemed like it would be good to run around and play with children.

    Mini hugged Cloudling and rubbed her face.

    “It is a very wonderful gift… ! That mini named this cloudling ‘Iningi’ and petted it every day and took it for a walk every day… !”

    ━Yinging yaing.

    “This year too, we will raise Rust’s huge straw bale high and burn it with strong flames! It describes well the image of Rust, who is the flame itself!”

    Bokor, an old witch and the fourth baptist, was the head of a group of witches who led former Walpurgis witches.

    The witches were a group of women who liked discussing magic, witchcraft, and mystical miracles.

    Naturally, people liked to give all kinds of mystical and magical meanings to this birthday festival.

    “Michelan, what do you think?”

    “That’s a very good idea. A flame is something that burns itself and shines hotter and brighter than anything else. There is nothing better than fireworks to express Rust’s majesty!”

    Michelan, the third baptist, was the kingdom’s greatest artist.

    He highly praised the unstable artistry of Bokor and the witches, and the witches also always respected Michelan’s artistic sense.

    but-.

    There was something Bokor couldn’t understand.

    “Who is that person? I think now is a good time to introduce who I am.”

    “Do you mean Sali?”

    Since one day, Michelan has been carrying around a woman with braided blonde hair.

    The woman didn’t say a word and just followed Michelan around.

    Artist Michelan was accustomed to being called a monster and behaving strangely, but since this was his first time with a woman, it caught everyone’s attention.

    “Oh, you mean marionetta? Marionette is my lover. Actually, I don’t know if her name is Marionette. Because even I have never heard her voice.”

    Michelan said.

    Marionette.

    A woman like a doll.

    Suddenly, Bokor tells Rust to ask Michelan to find a wife. And I remembered what I had said: Be fruitful and multiply.”

    Michelan, like Hans, traveled all over the world, but could not find a woman he liked. However, while wandering around Rue d’Urgien, he met Marionette sitting in a park looking at the sky and fell in love with her at first sight.

    “She’s like a statue. Although he doesn’t say a word, he clearly asserts himself to the world. That’s how art should be.”

    Although Bokor could not understand most of what Michelan said, he could tell that Marionette and Michelan were like-minded artistic partners.

    ‘I guess I just brought her here because she has big breasts.’

    Men talk about this and that, but in the end, I thought they liked women with big breasts. How many women actually prayed, “Please help me make my breasts bigger!” by becoming a member of the temple.

    Sze-.

    At that time, someone came into the tent of the festival management department.

    She was the 7th Baptist, Ultima. There was also a sixth baptist, Viscount Copps.

    “Seventh Baptist Bokor, are preparations for the festival going well?”

    Ultima, who was the head maid of the Corpse family that ruled sodomy, was good at managing various things. Bokor frowned at her question.

    “The seventh baptist. I am the fifth baptist.”

    “Corpse Viscount Coffs is the fifth. I’m sixth. And you are the seventh.”

    Corpse, Ultima, and Bokor met Rust around the same time and were baptized.

    The order of their baptism was not clear, and each side insisted that they come first, so opinions were always divided.

    “There should not be any inconvenience in preparing chairs for Mr. Rust and his family to sit on. As a platinum chair, I, Corpse, have a duty to take care of all chairs.”

    Corpse is a strange person who calls himself a chair.

    However, his skills as a chair were real, and last year he even received praise from Rust, saying he was “excellent.”.

    A situation where everyone works hard to get that compliment.

    “But Hans might get scolded a lot this year.”

    Bokor opened his narrowed eyes and said.

    He was a man called Hans, the greatest baptist, but he was unable to follow Rust’s most important command.

    Perhaps there might have been a change in the ‘ranking’ of baptists.

    Hehehe-.

    Everyone laughed.

    They were all brothers and sisters, but at the same time, they were competitors aiming for each other’s place.

    # # #

    “A big problem happened.”

    Hans broke into a cold sweat.

    It was because time was ripe and the opening of the Birthday Festival was approaching.

    Hans was self-proclaimed as Rust’s chief servant, capable of memorizing 99% of Rust’s words and books.

    In fact, he was unable to carry out the order he had given, which was to find a partner, get married, and have a family. He was now in a tense situation in many ways.

    “Perhaps Mr. Rust will be disappointed in me and turn away from the world, and eventually the Earth will be destroyed… ! This is a global risk… !”

    However, Hans could not find a suitable woman to mate with. Rust’s command to “love.” felt very important to catch and marry just anyone.

    Marrying someone just because they are old enough.

    Is that really right?

    Of course, I didn’t know there was such a type of love in the world.

    I didn’t know that there were people who lived happily even after getting married like that.

    However, Hans did not want to roughly handle Rust’s orders like that, and in the end, even though it took several years, he was unable to find a suitable partner.

    “Today, the position of chief baptist may have to be laid down… . Maybe I should give up everything and ask for forgiveness… !”

    Hans was nervous.

    What if the person who claims to be the best baptist makes a mistake and the evaluation of all baptists goes down together?

    What if Rust, so disappointed, decides to destroy the Earth?

    Hans couldn’t even handle that heavy cup!

    ━The chief baptist is I, Galatea… !

    Hahahaha-.

    For some reason, Galatea’s laughter is making Hans’ ears noisy.

    smart-.

    Someone knocked on the door of the room where Hans was staying.

    Soon, before Hans had a chance to respond, a girl with her hair tied back and healthy tan skin came in, a figure that was also in Hans’ memory.

    “You… .”

    “Hans, it’s me. Adela. Hans, I heard that you were decided to be Rust’s footstool when Rust gave his speech at the festival today, so I wanted to let you know… .”

    Adela.

    She was from Country, the rural village where Hans grew up when he was young.

    Hans was able to recall the face of the mischievous girl with whom he ran around catching beetles and catching dragonflies when he was young.

    I remembered myself as an insignificant son of a rural serf.

    “The reason I can exist as I am now is only because Rust recognized me. He is a person who truly recognizes people’s potential. I am not good enough to be His footstool.”

    Hans was truly moved and moved, so much so that he trembled and shed tears.

    How on earth can Hans repay the grace of his savior, who called him a baptist and acknowledged him?

    Hans still thought of himself as inadequate and powerless, like a serf’s child catching grasshoppers in a country village.

    Adela said to Hans.

    “My… The reason I came to this crusade was… Because I received a letter… ! This is Rust… A letter written by Mr. Hyde… . Your story was written in the letter.”

    “Adela, a letter to you?”

    Hans was surprised.

    Does this mean that Mr. Rust already knew about the people of Country, a rural town that he had never revealed to anyone?

    “Lust is truly omnipotent… !”

    Hans was overwhelmed.

    Adela said hesitantly to Hans.

    “Hans, you are the pride of our country village. When I told you that you had become an amazing person, people didn’t believe me, but I did. So goodbye! I have to prepare for the festival!”
