Living in this World with Cut & Paste

Episode 149: In the Royal Palace (2)

"What!? Are you sure it's done! You did it, Mine!

The king soon found out that what I was talking about was the moving door.

Until earlier, he was a king who had deliberately shown a bright attitude in an attempt to soothe the scene, but now that I heard my report, I felt delighted from the bottom of my heart.

"Yeah, the details..."

Once again, as I looked into the face of Chancellor Morg, the king would have understood.

"Excuse me, Morg, can you take it off?

"... I don't mind that, but is it something I can't even tell you, the Chancellor?

I would naturally have noticed that Chancellor Morg had also asked me how I was doing with every single thing I had just now.

I guess that's why I was surprised at the King's words.

"Well, there's literally nothing you can't talk about if you put your life on the line."

Perhaps the king thinks of Master Fenrill's "covenant of divine beasts”.

But that's something that Fenrill can't give you unless he recognizes you.

It's true that if you tell someone about my skills, they may suffer severe pain to death, but if you don't, it's just like being protected.

I don't think Master Fenrir will give it to you either, and it won't be something you can take at the convenience of humans.

"Hmm? What should I swear?

Oh, apparently, a word from the King has caught the interest of Chancellor Morg.

Not good, if the king promises, what will happen...

"Morg, I don't hate your attitude in trying to increase your knowledge with an interest in everything... there are some things in the world that you shouldn't know"

Having heard that word of the king, Chancellor Morg moves his eyebrows piquely.

Maybe it was an unexpected response.

For a moment, I was thrilled to talk about the covenant of the beast.

But even if you think about it, talking about the "God Beast contract” is going to break the contract.

There's no way a king would do something so far-fetched, is there?

"Ho, I didn't know His Majesty would say that... Kuwabara Kuwabara, shall I disperse?"

With a shrugged shoulder, the Chancellor left the office.

Though I was somewhat concerned about the attitude of eating people, the only thing left in the clerk's office was knowing about my skills.

"Just in case you're fluffy, will you explore what's going on around you?

Asking him to do that, he said, "Wow!" He starts checking quickly.

I could have used my skills, but I'm still fluffy when it comes to sensing abilities.

You'd be right to leave this place to the fluff.

"You're a jerk, not a jerk, not a single one."

"Thanks! Fluffy"

As I thanked him, I gently stroked his tail, which was hanging from above his head in front of his eyes, and he narrowed his eyes with pleasure.

My brother-in-law asked me a little excited to see how we were doing.

"So, my brother-in-law. Is the door that sealed your skills really complete?

"Yeah, kinda... no, it was a lot of trouble..."

With that said, I take the door connected to my pre-built demolition room out of the storage bag.

Both the king and his brother-in-law gaze at the door with no philosophy whatsoever, the look I took out.

"... father, brother... what's wrong with this door?

That's what Aerie asks with her neck tilted, not knowing what's going on.

Seeing the excitement between his father and his real brother, he seemed to wonder.

"This is my husband's errand I was just telling you about. Possibility to fulfill Airy's hopes."

That's what Silfi explains to Airy, but I guess he's still not sure. Still tilting his neck and looking at the door wondering.

Silfi had nothing more to explain.

You think it's because you know what's going to happen.

Evidence over theory, that's exactly right.

"This door leads to the demolition room of my house."

After hearing my words, I guess Aerie finally figured out what this is.

He has a surprised look on his face.

"Ko, can this be... the same thing as your brother-in-law's mobility skills!?

Hear Aerie's words, and the king will ask me.

"... Hmm, so can we give it a try soon?

"Yes, once it's safe, I'll go in first."

I checked well in advance that there are no problems, but if anything happens to the King when he uses it, it will be a terrible thing.

That's what makes the whole Kingdom of Augusta a mess.

So let me use it in front of you first and prove its safety.

Me and the fluffy over my head, but I'll knock on the door first. Silfi and Ku continue next.

The faces of the Fortuna family disappear from the office, and the remaining royal faces nod face to face.

"Then I will come!

From the royal family, Aerie knocks at the door first. Because Aerie is experiencing my skills.

I guess I don't feel too anxious.

Saw Airy jump into the door, followed by Brother Alto.

"Hmm, I really don't know if I'm going to make something like this... I didn't expect anyone else to show up who could do this besides the smelter Maya..."

And the king knocked through the door for the last time.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"... this is where Dyne and Yukino lived"

We're moving from the demolition room to the living room, drinking tea.

I was actually planning on going back soon, but the king really wants to see the house, so I'm going to show him the whole way and then tell him I'm taking one like this.

The king was one of those people who was partying with my father, my mother.

So I guess you were wondering about this house.

The king who was slowly looking around this house seemed nostalgic, and yet such a complicated expression of loneliness.

I'm sure you remember the old days.

I don't know because it's a natural sight for me, but I'm sure the King's eyes will show traces of your father and mother living here.

"Mine, you did a great job. It is unfortunate that we cannot wave and use the major players in front of the covenant of the Divine Beast..."

The king praised me for saying so.

"... my brother-in-law (Mine)... I think this door is great, but I think it has one flaw..."

My brother-in-law, who was so excited until before he knocked at the door, tells me that in a sober tone.

"Cons......?

Mm-hmm? I wonder what it is? At all, I can't think of...

What would Silfi be, too? and leaning his neck.

It's completely irrelevant, but you look just like Aerie when Silfi leans her neck.

Boulders, you're sisters. And I admired it in a strange way.

... Oops, you're out of line. Cons, cons...

"... sorry, brother-in-law. I don't know."

When I answer that, your brother-in-law points out the shortcomings of this door.

"The drawback of this door..."
