The gate of the city with the Count of Godwin's residence.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Takao and Arkin rendezvous with Meyer after talking to Jin Goro and the others.

That said, Meyer was the only one who answered the phone at the console, and the other people seemed to be a little away from this place.

"You were surprisingly quick.

Everyone's going to take a breath, I'll be right back.

By the way, did the director meet a good craftsman? "

Meyer will tell you.

"... yeah.

I received a souvenir as a sign of your closeness.

Um... this is it. "

Takeo takes the scroll out of the backpack.

"Yeah? What is it?"

"The carpenters and painters are going to Count Elvis this time."

The painter is more likely to paint watermarks. "

"I'm sick? What kind of...?"

"Ahh... something that crushed and solidified the charcoal... right?"

It feels like charcoal has been shattered and dissolved in water.

The colour is black, isn't it? ”

"Are you painting in black?

I think the painting is vivid in colour.

Isn't black alone a dark picture? "

Meyer will tell you.

... um... I don't really see paintings, but why?

"Um... it's expensive.

Even if it is small, there are a few silver coins, and it is not in the general store.

And that's why there are so many people who are making paintings. "

"Who doesn't have a portrait in the royal castle or in an aristocratic mansion?"

"Rumor has it that not only was the portrait painted by the king several generations ago unpleasant and very angry, but not only did he paint the naked picture of the princess at that time, but he also caused a major incident such as being forced to wear his clothes.

It seems that the painter is dead... missing.

It was said that the king of time did not approve of painting portraits.

Other painters, aristocrats, and luxury families said that the paintings of the people denied by the king were bad luck, and they were worried that they would meet the crackdown, so they had to decorate them.

Well, I don't know the truth.

Therefore, items such as pots and small items are common in Japanese artworks.

It's also decorated with swords and armor. ”

... well, let's be careful not to make strange rumors about the portrait.

Takeo says.

So, Director, what kind of painting is this thing called me?

"Let's take a look... I don't know what's inside because you told me to see it later, but it must be easy because you gave it to me on the spot."

Ah, this isn't a scroll, is it? "

I noticed that there was a string that Takeo would put on.

"Yes, Mr. Arkin, please take this.

Raise it high.

Yes, that's right.

Now, let's open the account. "

Takeshi lets Arkin hold the string and opens the scroll.

"... oh..."

Meyer leaks his admiration.

"H-, don't... nnh?"

Takeo stretched down to see the whole thing and solidified it.

Director, what are you doing?

You're back, aren't you?

"We have to finish it quickly."

Brooke, Kay, and Pamela returned to the treats in one hand.

"Huh? Arkin, what... what is this painting?

It's written in black and it's not a snake... it's got legs.

Your eyes are dizzy... It's a strange painting, isn't it?

Is it a monster you don't know?? "

Brooke looks at the scroll and gives his impression.

But it's compelling, isn't it?

"Hee, I know it's amazing."

Kay and Pamela also said their impressions.

... the dragon... is it also rising? I've seen it close to this... I don't know where I saw it...

... what do you mean? "

Takao muttered as he looked at the scroll.

------------------------

In front of the dormitory of the kingdom of Azpar.

There was a group of travellers with a carriage and several horse leashes, and several others were discussing it.

"Hah... I'm a little worried about Amy's journey."

Gina let out a sigh.

"Gina! Leave it to me! Amy! Let's go!"

Biela is holding Liza and telling Amy and Gina.

"It's all right, there's Lord Vieira, there's three of us, Donnelly and the Royal Guard, and if I have to, there's Lord Erica."

"Um... Amy, what about me?"

"Kitty's fine."

The strength here is enough.

Kitty just needs to sit back and relax.

Ah, but let's take turns riding horses and carriages. "

Amy says.

"No, no, please stay in the carriage with Amy and Erica."

"I can ride a horse, too."

“I know.

Besides, Amy is a royal family, so don't ride a horse, just a horse-drawn carriage.

You're saying that I shouldn't be riding with a carriage, right? "

"If you don't take turns resting, you'll be tired, right?

I had to take turns with the Royal Guard and Erica.

Well, I'm not used to it when it's raining, so I'll ride the carriage quietly. "

“It's always better with a carriage!”

"I get tired of carriages."

... well, let's talk about that in the future.

Bye, Smith, Gina, I'm going.

We'll hear about the match when we get back. "

Amy tells Smith and Gina.

"Now, Lord Vieira, Lord Lisa, Kitty, I'll take the carriage."

I had Lord Erika wait for me first. "

Amy pushes everyone to the carriage.

"Welcome aboard, Amy."

"Please take care and go."

Smith and Gina say.

"Yeah, I'll have fun."

Amy gets into the carriage.

"I'm leaving."

Amy and the others leave on Forrett's orders.

Smith and Gina bowed their heads to see them off.
