I kept being called incompetent at home, but it seemed super competent globally

"Is this... a mermaid?"

Looking at the picture I took out, Sister Ecclesia was a little surprised.

Apparently, I didn't expect the mermaid to be the subject.

If you think about it carefully, the mermaid is a phantom race that lives deep in the lake.

Most people will say that they saw the figure for the first time in yesterday's commotion.

Even if you were Ecclesia's sister, you wouldn't have been able to choose the subject.

"Did you see the real thing and draw it?"

"Yeah, I happen to have a friendly kid."

When I answered that, the noise spread even further.

Eventually, the gallery raised its voices one after another.

"Wow! I've never seen a real mermaid painting before!"

"If you ask me, it looks like the mermaid I saw yesterday..."

"This is no good!" Perfect for this city of the future! ”

Could it be because of yesterday's incident?

The mermaid theme was much more popular with the people of the city than I thought.

Maybe this will work!

If I push it, I might be able to win!

"Hmm, what's left..."

Oooh!

When I started thinking about it, a voice came from the other side of the wave.

Turning around, Mr. Kurta and the others were waving heavily.

As they run towards me, they breathe roughly.

”I'm already running all of a sudden!”

"I'm sorry, I didn't have time."

So, what's the situation?

Nino asked, looking at the surrounding gallery and Ecclesia's sister's face.

When I get close to them, I explain the situation softly and quickly.

Liza-san smiled somehow.

"... then why don't you add some colors at the end?"

"Huh? Well, that might be good for performance, but..."

Once again, I saw my painting.

It doesn't go beyond Ecclesia's work, but it did take the time to finish it.

Even if it is added, I can't find the missing parts.

If you're not good at it, you could become a snakefoot.

Then the sister took out something with a laugh.

"Ah, that's...!!"

Beautiful scales that shine in seven colors under the raw sunshine.

Definitely, it's a mermaid's scales that your sister brought with her before.

Well, surely this would be a great addition.

As soon as I receive the scales, I shred them thinly and mix them with the pale paint.

And when I paint it thinly on the painting...

"Ohhhh!!"

"What, what...!!"

"Wonderful...!"

The rainbow-colored light particles are scattered and glow in the sunlight.

It seemed, nevertheless, to represent the brilliance of life.

Until then, the mermaid, who had a somewhat quiet impression, changed and gained a sense of dynamism.

The sleeping mermaid seems to have just woken up.

The galleries are unexpectedly blinded by the dramatic changes that have taken place.

Ecclesia's sister seemed surprised at this, and her wrinkles stood between her brows.

"...... it's pretty good"

That said, Sister Ecclesia turned to the galleries again.

And ask them out loud.

"It's time to make up your mind about winning or losing." Mermaid paintings with landscape paintings of Ecclesia and paintings of Noah. Raise your hand to see which one is better. "

First of all, from my paintings, I show the landscape painting with my hand, Ecclesia-san.

Soon about half of the galleries raised their hands.

Next, my sister showed my hand in a nervous manner.

And then... just a little more than just a moment ago, a lot of people raised their hands.

Seeing that, Liza-san and Kurta shouted unexpectedly.

"... we won, Noah won!!"

"Wow! How dare you beat that Ecclesia painter!!"

"It's a boulder! I thought you were going to do it!"

Liza-san and Kurta-san praise me.

My face turned red and I burnt my cheek because it was completely smelly.

It's probably because of the mermaids.

Finally, Liza-san came up with the idea of using scales as a painting material.

Meanwhile, she must have been in shock.

His cheeks were swollen and he looked very grumpy.

"... ahaha, the painting materials and subject matter were good." The timing was perfect. "

"Blessed are the qualities of a good artist."

"Well then, admit it..."

But that's a different matter!

Yeah, that's what it is!?

Ecclesia suddenly turned the story upside down and moved to the front of my painting.

And then, you can't talk so fast that you can't hear it.

"The person is good, but the background is bad!" The water is dead!

The expression is softer and the hardness is still in my eyes! The reflection of the light-- "

Furious Tsukumi.

I felt distracted by the harshness.

Then, Liza-san goes around behind Ecclesia-san and places her hand on her shoulder.

"... no matter what I say, it's true that I lost." Be an adult. "

"Ugh... I don't want Liza to tell me that."

"Oh no! You want to tell me I'm a child?"

"Yes, Liza is a child from Ecclesia."

Sister Liza and Sister Ecclesia started arguing outside the original topic.

The two of them heat up as they are.

"Such an ecclesia would be more childish!" Can you divide it? "

"Of course. Mr. Ecclesia is a soo master"

"Ugh...!! Well, that's fine!" I'll leave you to it for now. Farewell! "

"Wow!!"

Suddenly, Liza-san grabbed my hand.

It looks like you're going to understand the situation, or you're going to take me and run away.

When she saw it, Ecclesia opened her eyes for a moment.

But as soon as he regains his mind, he calls to the surrounding galleries.

"Stop Liza and the others!"

"Shit! That's not good!"

"Hurry up and run! Don't stop!"

People trying to surround us.

In the meantime, we managed to dive out of the city of Elmar.
