C.779: Reactions Of The Villagers

Chapter 779 – Reactions of the Villagers

We decided to hold a parade outside the village.

Initially, I suggested to just extend the parade of the village but it was decided to hold it on a different day.

The reason is for those who wish to participate in the village’s parade but not in the parade outside the village.

There are also those who prefer joining the parade outside so we had to adjust for that.

In addition, it is sometimes difficult to continue the parade in the village to the outside because the paraders and watchers change in the middle of the parade.

In fact, the village parade, including the banquet afterward, has a well-defined schedule.

It’s such a shame to disrupt a schedule like that.

……

Of course, I was not the one who decided that.

Yeah, I was the one who needed to be persuaded.

They had me sit down on a chair and a bunch of documents and wooden planks related to the parade were laid on the table in front of me. They explained to me one by one that the parade must be held on another day.

Thus, the parade outside the village will be held on a different day.

I asked the demon king and he said there’s no problem with that.

Incidentally, I heard that the demon king and Tiselle were also scolded by the civil servants working in the royal castle for underestimating the traffic control.

There may not be so many people in the village along the way but considering that the royal capital, Shashaato City, and Village Five are in the route, there should be adequate security and safety along the route.

It’s not something you can just casually declare, “We’ll have a parade later so deal with it.”.

Since I’m thinking like those two on that matter, I feel like I’ve been scolded too.

Reflect, me.

By the way, the reaction of the villagers to the parade outside the village was mixed.

Apart from the civil servant girls, who went out to meet the civil servants of the royal capital, it was the mountain elves who made the biggest move.

They stopped what they were doing and began building carriages.

As for why, it’s because we can’t use the tall towers we use for the parade in the village. We’re going to use the teleportation gates after all.

I think an ordinary carriage would be enough but they are making them as luxurious as possible.

Can you use gold or silver?

Go ahead, I don’t mind.

It’s a carriage for me, right?

It doesn’t have to be a carriage for carrying a king of some country, right?

Also, I don’t think we need the transforming and combining function.

I don’t see the need for three carriages to combine into a big one……

Not three carriages?

Five carriages will be combined?

No, about the number of…..

It seems like it’s impossible to convince them.

I’ll leave it all to you but don’t overdo things.

……

As soon as I said I’ll leave it to them, the sparkle in the eyes of the mountain elves became brighter.

That’s the worst kind of sparkle.

I’m pretty sure they are already thinking about how to merge seven carriages!

Okay, I don’t care how much idea you’re going to materialize in that!

However, don’t arm them!

I’m not going to allow you even if you say it’s to make the parade safer.

The next big movement came from the spiderlings.

I told them they could join the parade outside but they said they would decide after Zabuton woke up if she’ll let them.

Well, it’s the non-hibernating group that are here.

Still, they are doing a lot because they have to make costumes.

I think using the same costumes for the parade in the village and outside the village will be fine but they insisted that inside and outside must be different.

They even ordered a large amount of cloth from the warehouse in Village Five.

Hnn?

You’ll make costumes for the villagers too so I better hurry up and decide with the list of people who’ll participate in the parade outside?

Alright, I’ll do what I can.

The high elves, dwarves, lizardmen, and beastkins were no different than usual.

They are always doing their best so they are not fazed by a slight change.

They’re very dependable.

After the parade outside, will there be a banquet?

The demon king will probably hold it in the royal capital but I have been told that I may not participate in that.

Those who wish to attend my join the banquet in the royal capital…..

Too much trouble?

Well, there will be a lot of people you don’t know there after all.

I don’t want that trouble too.

However, it is a little sad to participate in the parade and disband without joining the banquet.

Yeah, right.

After the parade outside, let’s have our own banquet in the village.

Those who did not participate in the parade outside are welcome to join.

Yeah, it’s not only those who will participate in the parade who are working hard.

Those who are not doing the preparatory jobs for the parades are taking over the jobs of those who will participate.

I’ll tell the oni maids.

Just like the parade in the village, I also informed the people of Village One, Village Two, Village Three, and Village Four about participating in the parade outside the village.

However, since we can’t leave any village empty, we are working hard to select the participants.

I have not set a specific number of participants from each village.

I have been asked several times but it’s up to each village to decide.

You can also decide not to participate.

No, you don’t have to answer so emphatically that you will participate…..ah, yeah, I expect you to.

-0-

Village Five will also participate in the parade outside but Youko was in charge of selecting participants for Village Five.

However, Youko was busy practicing her apology to Zabuton, so she decided that the number of participants would be fifty and left the selection to the village council.

The village council seemed to be the most excited since its establishment and seemed to be making a heated selection.

I don’t think it’s a problem, but Hih and Loch, who work in Village Five, asked me to bring Youko back as soon as possible.

The selection process seems to be too heated.

Also, they say that 50 participants are not enough.

When I tried to take Youko’s place because she was busy, Hih and Loch apologized and stopped me.

You don’t want me to see such an unsightly struggle?

No, but…..

Hih and Loch did their best and decided to do something about it.

Is that okay?

As for the angels, Tier will probably ride in the same carriage as me but Malbit and most of the angels are still discussing whether or not to join the parade outside.

The demon king had previously said that he would have a lot of trouble if he was suspected of having close relations with the angels but when I asked him again, he said that they are free to do what they wish now.

He said that anyone who knows that the Garret Kingdom is leading toward the Demon King’s Kingdom would be aware of the current status quo so there won’t be any problem.

I thought they would be okay with not participating but they have a strong desire to show their dignity by participating.

「We’ve been hiding it but, angels likes to show off……」

I noticed.

Well, I won’t say anything else so I hope you’ll think about it and come to a conclusion.

Also, Kuudel.

I have no intention of including any dive bombing at the parade outside.

Don’t ask me how many rounds you are allowed to fire, my answer won’t change. Put that kuro horn spear you are polishing right now.

The kuros, including Kuro and Yuki, didn’t seem to be doing anything no the usual.

But there were still some preparations.

The first twenty in the order were calm.

However, those who are around in the 30th position onward were restless.

Those in the 40th are also fidgety.

As the 50th and lower, they were a little resigned but I can still see hope in their eyes.

As for those in the 100th, they’re acting the same as usual.

Well, I guess because I’m the one who’ll decide how many of them will participate in the parade outside.

The demon king told me that he won’t limit the number of kuros that will participate but I heard that people outside are scared of them.

I should keep the number within the bounds of common sense.

Then, as Kuro and the others have predicted, 20 to 30 of them should be the safe number, right?

The security of each village also relies on them.

Incidentally, the number of them that could participate in the event would be around 200 considering the security of each village.

……

Then, should I have those 200 participate?

We’re just marching after all.

Isn’t this a chance to show them that the kuros shouldn’t be an object of fear?

……

Alright, I’ve decided, 200 of you will join.

Seeing them so happy makes me happy too.

Hahaha, you’ll be scolded for practicing marching in the mansion.

Yeah, do your best.

Hih and Loch: In a city of tens of thousands of people, we are asked to pick 50 participants….

Village Council: There are too many applicants.

Hih and Loch: Thank god village chief didn’t say that only council members could participate.

Village Council: Yeah, I’m trembling just thinking about “it”. (backlash from the residents)

-0-

Village Chief: Kuro and others will participate, 200 of them!

Hih and Loch: Because he’s the type of person who makes this kind of decision……
