The festival was a hit.

In fact, people got so crazy that the villagers taking shifts on security detail wound up pushing us to keep going. One hundred and fifty people participated in the meat gauntlet that night, yet somehow we’d barely made a dent in the full stash.

“Man, this is so good! Just delicious!”

“Urgh… I can’t take another bite…”

“I wonder if we’ll be able to have some tomorrow too…”

Even after the festival had wrapped up, villagers appeared one after the other to snack on the meat. Apparently, feeding them was the right idea; people continually stopped to say hello while I was doing the rounds the next morning.

“Good morning, Lord Van! Boy, that meat was phenomenal!”

“Thank you for patrolling the village!”

“Can I marry Till, Lord Van?”

“Huh?!”

I was tremendously happy to be greeted so amicably every time I walked somewhere, but I had issues with that last guy. He had to get through Dee before he earned the right to utter those words. I didn’t want anyone to take Till away from me, so I held her hand as we walked.

“It’s been quite some time since you last held my hand, my lord… Hee hee. Looking to be doted on, are we?” she asked, overflowing with affection.

Well, I was eight years old. I had the right to act like a little kid. The only problem was that everyone showered us with warm smiles as we walked down the main road. It was embarrassing.

“Oh, you’re letting go?” She seemed saddened by this, but her master was in fact the lord of the land. Being cute was important, but so was maintaining a sense of dignity.

“Hey, Till? I’m going to find you the nicest fiancé imaginable, okay?”

She offered me a gentle smile, the sort an older sister might offer her grumpy little brother. “Taking care of you is my duty, Lord Van. I’ve yet to give any thought to marriage.”

I frowned. “Yeah, but if you keep putting it off, it might be too late.”

“Hrk! Er, d-don’t worry about that!” she said, her smile twitching.

At the end of the day, Till was eighteen years old; it wouldn’t have been unusual for her to be married already. Then again, it was common in this world to delay marriage until as late as age twenty-five, even if it was more typical to get married between fifteen and twenty.
