Ok I took a very long break. Time for a new update.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You?
Yes.
There is still fighting and the country is in chaos.
And you do not know how crude this new Ouro and his companions from that rebellion are.
Huhu, Munto, you are such a worrier.
But here is no need to worry. I am no longer a child.
N-no, that is not the problem
Yes.
Hm.
If you, as High Priest say so, then I will not object. Do as you wish.
Thank you very much.
Munto, I leave all the preparations to you.
Girl's Voice Heehee...
Girl's Voice Heeheeheehee...
Girl's Voice I overheard something good.
.........
.........
Benawi shows up with a pile of documents.
...
Is there something wrong? Why have you fallen over?
Why do I...have to do all this?
Because you are Ouro.
...
A...nd, j....ust, w....hen did I become Ouro?
You must take responsibility for stirring up the people.
If there is no Ouro, the various clans would fight amongst each other, other countries would invade...
This country would once again be hurled into war.
(Ok we get it)
After that we get into an argument between Kurou and Oboro about how we should organize our army, priorizing infantry or cavalry… (But I will just skip it).
……
Some time later…..
Teoro and the rest of the villagers leave to the village…
...And one day, we will die there.
...
That's...right.
If I could...I wish I could do the same.
An-chan...
What're you getting down for! You can always come here and hang out!
Uu Bring some sake when you visit!
Taa Yeah.
Thank you, everyone.
Well, take care!
Yes, everyone take care.
This is...
I'm giving it to you.
But, this is your precious...
It's okay. From now on, you can treat it dearly.
Sopok-neesan...
Aruruw, don't eat any strange things that will give you a stomach ache.
Mm.
Listen to what your Nee-san and Hakuoro have to say.
Mm.
Well, you two take care.
.....
And with this, all the villagers left.
.....
Later….
Eruruw and Aruruw get their things to their new room in the castle.
The place is full of herbs and stuff.
...
We are interrupted by the twins…
Onkamiyamukai...
(...What the heck is that?)
(Mediators?)
What shall we do?
Do? I need an explanation first.
What is this Onkamiyamukai and who are these Mediators?
It is said to be the first country and descended from the Onkamiyariw family.
Witsarnemitea?
...
Did I say something weird?
No.
Witsarnemitea is the name of our Great God as well as the teachings themselves.
Witsarnemitea is present through out our entire lives.
In other words, we are all followers of Witsarnemitea since birth.
Back to your question.
The head temple "Onkamiyamukai" mediates between countries and clans and protects from disaster.
(So they are the fucking Vatican but with a busty princess. Cool.)
To do so, it watches over every country and interferes if necessary.
They must have come to see the current state of affairs and the new Ouro.
is why they are called Mediators, then?
In the past, we refused the intervention of the Onkamiyamukai.
Because of that, we could not invite a ambassador, even after building a shrine.
(I see...it's better to go meet them and at least see.)
Bring the guest. I will be there shortly.
……
I am Urtoriy, an envoy sent by order of the Oryankur.
I humbly appreciate your cooperation with this meeting.
It is quite a spectacle to be hold.
The beautiful woman gives an elegant bow, her golden hair swaying.
Every refined movement of hers is like a work of art.
Thank you for accepting us in to your country.
...I am Benawi, a retainer.
We are greatly honored by your presence, Imperial Princess Urtoriy.
(ImperialPrincess?)
Let's dispense with formalities and talk freely.
(Hm? Benawi said something about an observer, but I never thought an imperial princess would come!)
(But, for such a little back woods country)
I glance over at Benawi, who gives an amazed expression in response.
...Sothen, what business would an imperial princess have to do with our country?
Friendship.
Friendship?
We came here to learn more about you.
We would also wish for you to learn about us.
(Friendship?Ican'treadhertrueintentions,but...Ican'thelpbutfeelshe'ssincere.)
(What'smore,thiswomanlypresence...isthiswhatanimperialprincessislike?)
Excuse me.
[Etiquette: Fail]
Simple...tea?
Eh?
It seems...you will not accept us. How unfortunate.
He then whispers to himself, "It is quite unfortunate."
Then, we will excuse ourselves.
Um...um!?
...
Delicious.
Calling it simple tea is very humble of you.
We seem to have made a mistake. We were at fault for suggesting such a thing.
Ah...
Huhu, what a cute servant.
Servant...
Uh...um, she is not a servant, but my family.
Oh. Forgive me for saying that.
Are you the empress?
I, I...
-tremble-
……
……
…..
Then, if this is acceptable.
This country has just been established and is mostly country side, but we will entertain as much as we can.
We are extremely grateful, but-
You do us a great honor. We will accept your hospitality.
We will have a room prepared for you, so please feel free to use it.
We are sincerely thank ful for everything you have done.
But, I know nothing about etiquette...even earlier, I...
Benawi, I entrust escorting her to you.
Yes sir.
……
……
At last night falls.
-snore--snore-?
(What's that sound?)
-snore--snore-?
There's a strange, lilting sound coming from somewhere.
