The time for the festival's dance had arrived. There was first a very solemn and formal feast. The guests didn't really felt the urge to talk to these religious people beyond greetings and formalities.
Because they don't seem to want to talk to them at all.
Especially towards the Alphas and the Alpha-like Omega.
Maki-kun was back to being wrapped up in bandages and his coat. But he was given another layer of a fur coat made of real hand-sewn winter wolf fur in order to hide the damage and blood.
This fur coat belonged to Hakaku and it was said that he had obtained it from his great grandfather, who was an Alpha kannushi too but for a different jinja.
People were surprised to see it worn by the guest because this was Hakaku's favorite winter coat. What is this supposed to mean?
However, they gossiped only to themselves and not in front of guests. But Maki was still aware of the eyes on him and the whispers buzzing about. He was used to it.
