Episode 131: Smith returns home. Results?
Takeo and Alice were waiting in front of Smith as he followed the magic store and reached the front door of the Elvis Mansion.
"Welcome back, Smith.
"Welcome back, Smith boy.
"I'm back now, sister, Dear Takeo.
Have you been waiting forever?
The two snort.
"Yeah, Grandpa and Frederick will be waiting in the guest room, too.
The three of them headed to the guest room.
------------------------
Alice knocks on the guest's door.
From the inside, I said, "Go ahead." He confirms that permission will go down, opens the door, and Alice, Takeo, and Smith enter the room.
Inside were Grandpa Elvis and Frederick.
"Grandpa, Smith is back.
"Grandpa, I'm back.
"Smith, welcome back.
and 3 people get to their seats.
Frederick makes the tea, puts it in front of the three of us and backs it up a little from everyone
"How was it, Smith?
"I lost.
Smith answers Grandpa Elvis' question with a bitter smile.
"Right..."
"At the end of the day, I rewarded Harold with one arrow.
"Ho.
"I punched Harold in from the front many times, but it was all prevented and wiped out.
At the end of the day, after being snubbed away, when I looked at Harold, I was turning my gaze against the left, so I said, "Here!" So I cut in.
... to the extent that I cut my stomach a little.
Shortly afterwards, he beat me up and I passed out, and it's over.
"Um... in that face, did you feel clear?
"Yes, I lost, but I don't feel bad.
I really enjoyed the fight.
"Oh, I see.
Grandpa Elvis nods happily, yeah.
"Good for you, Smith boy.
"Yes.
Thank you, Master Takeo.
"Hmm? I didn't do anything, though?
"No, you've made a cut for this battle... and thank you for telling me.
Smith bows his head.
"Um... privately, I just gave you some advice, so I don't think it's something to be thanked for.
Let me thank you, Smith boy.
Takeo also bows his head.
"I'd rather say congratulations to Smith Boy for properly recognizing his shell and breaking it.
"Yeah, Smith has a good face.
Everyone but Smith nods at Alice's words.
"Sister, Taylor told you earlier, have you changed that much?
"Yes, very much.
Alice is nicotine.
"Smith boy, have you met Taylor?
"Yes, I've had a cup of tea.
Oh, I'm keeping a message for Master Takeo.
"The small gun modification ends after noon, so you can fire it at any time."
"Okay.
"How were the Takeos?
"Is this about the bear?
"Bear!?
Smith is surprised.
"Yeah. I recently went to see the bear for my interest, or something like that.
I thought I'd intimidate you with gun training if you were there.
"Really?
"So. I was there, so I typed it in.
"I left that bear in a cage.
"Ugh... um..."
Grandpa Elvis nods with a slight pull on his face.
"Did you even go to your sister?
"Yeah, because it seemed fun.
"Well, in the pair of sisters and Takeo, the bear is pathetic too.
Smith was frightened.
"So aren't you coming to the city anymore?
"Well... well... thank you for your hard work.
"What's everybody gonna do this afternoon?
"I study, don't I?
"Huh? Wouldn't it be nice to be relaxed about today?
Takeo asks Smith a question for his answer.
"I don't think so... but I'm anxious that I'm not studying at my usual time.
"I see... but you should take a light nap, right?
Maybe he's coming back after he's recovered, because he should still be mentally tired.
"Is that what it is?
"Yeah, I guess I'm feeling high and tired at the end of the fight now.
Let's get some brain rest because half the bell on the hon is good.
"Okay.
"I'll have the pudding ready for you at tea time after dinner today.
"Is it true!?
"Yeah, I mean a little celebration for Smith Boy.
"Um, that's good.
What about Takeo?
"I'm going to go to manager Taylor's and I'm going to test fire around the castle gate.
Is that it? Wouldn't Mr. Elvis and his coat be able to do it today?
"Um, was it evening?
"Hmm? Will you do it after I come back with a test shot...
Well, you'll be fine in the evening.
"Um, what's Alice going to do?
"I'll follow you to Master Takeo.
"Um, we're both going to be careful.
"" Yes.
