The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)

Episode 125 Tradition and the People Who Live Now

"Yaho, Mr. Coata. Sorry I'm late at night ~"

"No, I'm really sorry. Was it bedtime?

Becker and his wife bow their heads, one looking happy and one looking sorry, toward Kota, who lowered their maid of honor on the matter. Whichever it was, I didn't have to dare, but I couldn't dare to show that neither of them cared enough about the wind to say it by mouth, and Kota shook his neck to the left and right.

"I thought it was still a little early to go to sleep, so don't worry. What shall we do? It's a little cold, but should we make some tea?

"Oh, can you please?

"Can I have it, too?

Nodding small at the two who say the same thing in a different tone, Kota pours tea from the pot at hand into three cups. Though only slightly cooled, it still stood hot, placing it on a round table instead of a receptionist with two people on it, and lowering his hips in front of it himself.

"So? What the hell can I do for you today?

Kota, who sits down and opens his mouth. Unexpectedly, Alois and Bianca look at each other in a straightforward manner. I rang out as Haota was surprised by the attitude of those two people.

"What's wrong?

"Uh... sorry, Mr. Coata. As far as I can remember what you've been saying and doing, it doesn't look like I'm going to cut the story out like that."

"That's right! A little more like this, don't you think I'd enjoy the witty talk? I came to visit you two around the corner. Come on. Ah! Could it be," Come visit me from this hour! I already slept with you. Think in common sense! 'Or angry?

"I'm not mad about time. Plus... well, honestly, I thought sooner or later there was some action."

"Huh? Really?

"Yesterday, Mr. Franz...... Mr. Aloys' real father came to visit. Well, I wasn't expecting you the day after that."

"My father told me last night, too. It's up to me to interrupt, including the grumbling. Well, it seems like you're visiting me at this hour, but it's going to be more of a shame..."

"I'm sorry," says Aloys, looking down with a shriveled attitude that seems sincerely sorry, unlike earlier. As is often the case, it is Kota who says and shows, "Keep your head up."

"That's not true. As I said earlier, there's no problem with time, so you don't have to keep your head down."

It's here. It's like bracketing your nose in a tree, and when you look around Erica, you're like, 'Uh... this, Coata? Are you in a bad mood?' Hota's attitude makes me want to hear it. It was in Aloise that I shook my shoulders and sighed at that attitude.

"- Already! Well, what was it just now! I didn't tell you, Ked, Mr. Coata! I don't feel good! You feel so bad today!

Outraged is Bianca. As the momentum stood, he slapped his desk with one hand against the van and turned a chilled gaze at Bianca, who stood up.

"It doesn't feel right," he said?

"That's right! I feel so walui! What, did we do something wrong? Is that you? You turned down the currency thing the other day, so you have it in your roots!

"I'm very sorry to hear that. But... well, I'm also in training and I'm still going to need refinement, but at least I don't want to be the only person who resents me for talking about 'business'. So that's a mistake."

"Well, what! With that attitude, we can't even talk serious! If you're unhappy, just say so!

One sigh to Bianca, who says so and stares. Keep your gaze on Bianca.

"- If you want to talk serious, can you do something about that hand you've been holding each other for a long time since you walked into the room!

- Bianca, who stood up in anger, and Aloise, who stood up together to be dragged because she was holding that hand all the time.

"That's all right! I was too busy to meet Aloys! It's a two-day gesture, meet Alois! Friendliness is a good thing!

"You don't deny it, do you? But you know what? Almost midnight is the time for you and me to hang hands together and be the ones who can show you the curse! If you want to show your love, please do it another way, for real! I want to sleep, me too! Please bear with me if I don't see you for two days!

Yes, these two have been holding hands ever since they entered Kota's room. Besides, it remains a "lover connection" that involves fingers and fingers. If the two people who came to visit us in "Serious Tales" in quite a late night were snuggling, this would be boring to the boulders, no matter how warm they are.

"You said it wasn't time for bed yet!

"I'm a good adult, too! You can't say 'I'm going to bed now, so please be brief' in front of the visitors!

"You can tell me, tell me! If you don't like it, say no!

"I don't like it if it's serious! I don't like being snuggled up in front of you!

"Well..."

That's it, Bianca stops the words. A moment later, I giggled and showed it to him.

"- Oh, what? Mr. Coata, are you jealous?

"... Huh?

"You envy the fact that 'loved ones' are nearby all Aloise, don't you?

"... what?

"Ha ha! Don't be obstinate. Don't be obstinate. Hey, Aloise. We're Rabbub."

Bianca shows Aloys with her hands held together, saying so. To that appearance, Kota turned his sand-biting expression to Aloys.

"... Mr. Aloys?

"... I don't really want to hear it... what?

Kouta smiled with a smile at Aloys, who heard that, stroking his sweet Bianca's head with the hands of those who were not connected.

"- Ma'am, is it okay if I knock you out?

"... give me a break, Mr. Courta"

It's this way that I want you to give me a break. Did you notice the look on Hota's face like that, after showing her a little tired face, she said, 'Look, Bianca. Get your hands off me.' "Eh! Just a little more! 'What a conversation. Bianca glanced at Kota with her eyes like she saw her parents' revenge, and took a seat with her cheeks swollen in dissatisfaction at the word of Aloys.

"... boo. Coata, your ass."

"Asshole."

"The vessel is tinier than I thought, Mr. Coata. Oh. I'm kind of not half disappointed!

"... Mr. Aloys?

"... Bianca, let's shut up a little"

"... Yes. Coata, it's okay to be angry with you, and I'll shut up."

"... Mr. Bianca is a big guy, too, I don't think he's mad at me yet, is he?

Kota hangs only his voice on Aloys, staring half-eyed at Bianca, who pointed a lot at Soppo. Like I asked - I didn't have to stop by and nothing but disgust. With such remarks, Aloyce nevertheless broke up with him just a little happily.

"Right? This naiveté is Bianca's greatest attraction! Ah! But I'm not giving it to you, Coata! Bianca is my thing!

"Ah, Aloise! It's okay! I'm an Aloise!

"Me too, Bianca!

"... what are you doing here, you guys?"

Make me this daughter-in-law, I have this husband. In a way, to the right dumb couple, the only way out is to sigh.

"Excuse me, excuse me. Coata wants to tell you how hot and passionate I love Bianca. And then I ran off."

"I feel like we're only running wild, you are. Including my sister love the other day."

"That's it."

"Which one?

"I think it's a little hobby to know the answer and ask, Mr. Courta. Me and Bianca are coming the day after my father visits. There's only one requirement, isn't there? Sure."

- About Emily.

"... well, I thought it would be"

"My father seems to like you a lot. My father is never strong in booze, and he's a good old man. Even though I'm not up that late at night, I was staying at the Chamber of Commerce yesterday. Come all the way to visit me and open the door, 'cause let's drink'."

"I remember you were home pretty late, too?

"It was a long time ago. Tomorrow I said I was going to work, and I said," Okay, "well... it was rare for my father to be in a good mood for a cup."

Speak so much, speak words. As it was, Aloys fixed his gaze on Kota's eyes.

"-" If it's that Gon, it'll make Emily happy ""

There was no deviation from that gaze of Alois, and Kota still shook his neck to the left and right.

"... I have trouble responding. In my personal opinion, I can't deny my lack of strength."

"My father said it, too, but it certainly doesn't mean I want you to give me an answer right now. It's just... well, as I said before, I hope you'll consider it positively."

That said, I point my gaze at Bianca, which was fixed on Kota. When I smiled at Bianca, who looked cutely tilted her neck with the expression 'Hmm?' and stroked her head, I returned my gaze to Kota again.

"Earlier... right, I saw 'Yippee', Coata, what did you think? Oh, with an opinion without taboos..."

"Ugh, I thought. Including our current interactions."

"- Fine... No, I said an opinion without any abominations, but you've come up with an opinion without any real abominations. Is that such a character, Mr. Coata?

"Excuse me, but it's late at night and... honestly, I'm going to heartburn with a full tummy"

After only slightly hitting his cheeks on the no-time response, Aloyce smiled at the look on his face.

"... Me and Bianca are indeed good friends. No, I don't mind saying it's too good... well, Coata, there are people who frown just like you. Even Eliza has been coming here lately with a lot of novels. Be careful in public."

"You know how it hurts, Eliza."

"Well, still... I think that's our family snail. To a couple who are annoyingly annoyed when they see it from the edge, my daughter is looking at it with a frightened look on her face, but the daughter is smiling happily 'I can't help it' even though she's frightened... Here's the ideal 'home' in me. And..." It "is," Only, a close family "... no matter how much you wish, it's something Emily couldn't have gotten to her."

……

"So, Mr. Coata. I'm here today to ask you for a favor."

That said, Aloys bowed his head.

"Please... please make Emily 'happy'"

Next to Alois, who bows his head, similarly Bianca bows her head and shows it.

"Any way is good. Any form is good. Will Emily please make my pretty 'sister' happy, pathetic and pathetic?

Neither one of them, nor Kota uttered a word, and time flowed indoors like a cloaked lake.

"... keep your head up"

One drop on such water, Kota's words fall. Dear, I flushed the word so that Kota's voice would leave it to the flow.

"You're still a parent and child with Mr. Franz. It's the same thing you're saying."

"Do you laugh when there's no art?

"I really thought it was a loving family. Whether you like it or not."

That said, Kota often meditates in small arms.

"... may I confirm?

He opened his eyes and raised his face to match the words of Kota to Aloys' eyes.

"If... if I asked you to help 'make Mr. Emily happy'"

- Will you do your utmost to cooperate? and.

"... of course."

What appeared in Aloys' eyes was Hota's face staring at Aloys with sincere eyes.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"... and"

"It's okay, Alois?

The city of Larchia, where only the moonlight depends, without convenient tools such as street lights. To his beloved wife, who supported herself with only a few unbridled feet, Aloyce showed a slight bitter smile.

"... thanks, Bianca. It's okay now."

"... really?

"Because it's true. Look, I'm so well already."

That's what I'm saying, and a breath, Aloys, who imitates and shows a force tumor on his arm. Staring at Aloys like that, Bianca slowly sighed.

"... too much to do"

"... right?

"Even yesterday it was dawn that we had a drink with your father-in-law, right? Keep working for the Chamber of Commerce, and when you're done with it, with your feet, Coata... and after this, you're going back to the Chamber of Commerce, right? You're gonna break your body?

"I used to be okay ~. Is it because I'm not young anymore?

"No more! I'm not going to tear it up!

Bianca lives in a serious color behind her eyes, still in an angry way that seems to have puffiness and phonetic sound. Did you realize that you couldn't delude yourself into such a gaze, or Aloys shrugged his shoulders small?

"... Well, I thought it would be nice to work hard even if I was somewhat forced here, huh?

"... I know..."

"I can't tell you if my mouth is ripped in front of Emily... but still, there were times when I was just a little worried too. Compared to Emily, it's trivial, it's really not enough to take... but it was hard to see the inside of the house creeping into the child's heart."

……

"My thoughts must have been the same whether it was my mother or my father. Still, I came here without doing anything to fix the wrong button. I thought I couldn't fix it anymore..."

"... Kota, you're here! Feel that?"

"There won't be any drunken people out there who would bother to have their daughter-in-law" Abominable Child "... assuming they do, it would be to attract the pleasure of a house called" Notes-Filt "and a house called" Becker ". I only see Emily as a tool, I can never leave Emily to him like that"

I'm sorry for you, but Bianca shook her head left and right to show Aloys that. Exhaled as if he had relieved himself slightly of the appearance, and Alois continued his words.

"I see Emily's 'happiness' that I thought I might no longer be able to do. Courta, I'm sorry to bother you, but how late and absolutely I wanted to ask you to bow your head. I'm sorry you had to go out with me, Bianca."

"Instead, if you hadn't let me go out with you, I would have been seriously angry! That's why I don't like that..."

That said, Bianca stops and looks up overhead. Aloys also looks up to match his behavior. After seeing the trick as a chill on the side, Bianca opened her mouth as she stared at the glowing jade ringing moon over her head.

"... just for a moment, was it surprising?"

"What?

"Cauta, I thought you were going to say, 'Make Emily happy, so admit the right to issue currency'"

"... isn't that underestimating you, Coata? I don't think he's that type."

"Aren't Aloise the one who underestimated you, Coata? You have a card that you can use at the right time? I think it's the pinnacle of stupidity to hold it in your afterlife without cutting it here... and Coata, I don't think you're that 'dumb', do you?

"That's... well, I guess so"

"If there's anything you can do, I think you should... Coata, I thought you were someone who could do that without hesitation. I mean this side... what is it? I was just wondering if they'd call me" Demon King "or something like that."

"... by the way, what would you have done if you'd cut that card?

"You hit your desk and took a seat!

"... Bianca"

"'Cause how the hell is that different from marrying Emily to use the name' Notesfilt 'or' Becker '? Same, right?"

"... sort of. Sure, I would have been outraged, too, Coata, if you had acted like that."

"Right? So... what is it? I, on the contrary, Coata, your ratings have fallen... and I wonder if it feels like it's gone up. So..."

- Talk about the right to issue currency, maybe you can take it.

"Bianca!"

"Wow! Bit of a surprise. What's the matter, Alois?

"What's the matter with this dialogue! He said he would receive the right to issue currency..."

"Oh, of course it's 'reward for success', isn't it? Emili said with a full grin, 'I'm happy!' If you say so, you can accept the transfer of the right to issue currency to the King's Palace, right?

"No, so, but!

"What? Even Aloys feels the limit to the current coin trade, doesn't he? If you can trade on paper, it's better that way. You disagree, 'cause if I tell you, you resent me elsewhere... it's about tradition, right?

"No, I do... but..."

Aloise says to Bianca's words. Staring strangely at Alois like that, Bianca quietly opened her mouth.

"... Aloys is awesome and takes care of Becker's 'tradition'. Sure 'tradition' matters, huh? Because it's an important 'tradition' that my father's, and his, long ago ancestors, built. Plus, I feel worthy and respectful, and I'm so glad Aloys takes care of me... but, Aloys? Aloise may be a little mistaken."

"... a mistake?

"Tradition and pride are the things that make it easier for us to live today, right? So right now, I don't think it's the thing that keeps the living until they're unhappy. They resent me elsewhere. I've never crossed the line without resentment... but if it's for Emily, she'll be happy to resent me! As your sister-in-law!

"... but"

"But?"

"Well... Emily's not Becker's person."

"... eh!

"There he is! Hey, Bianca! Why are you hitting me?

"Penis" sounded good, and Bianca's fist bone was dropped on Aloise's head. Bianca stares at Aloys, either in pain herself or in tears just a little bit.

"Emily's an important 'family' to me too!

"... Bianca"

"If that 'family' makes you happy, it's no use throwing away 'tradition' or anything. So, Aloise, would you stop saying that by mistake?

Breathtaking of the staring Bianca figure, 'I'm sorry,' he said only in his mouth.

"... thanks"

The words that came out, thank you.

"Mm-hmm. Anyway, Coata, I would never forgive you if you were going to use Emily, but if you're going to save Emily, I'm talking about making sure you return the favor."

……

"In the first place, Becker's best 'strength' is family friendliness! Without family love, there's no way Master Freya would continue to assist Bonkla, who has crushed the store twice! It's tradition, tradition!

Bianca laughing at me for saying that.

"... what's wrong, Alois"

I love how you look.

"... Ooh! What's really going on, Alois!

I'm glad you said that.

"... nothing"

"... already! You're a sweetheart, Aloys. Ah! Or did your fist bone hurt earlier?

Bianca did not touch the hot thing that wetted her own chest, but continued to stroke Aloys' head.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

"... is this about it?

I glanced at the 'it' in my own hand and nodded one more time, Emili carefully placed a set of knitting on her lap on the bed, spreading the deliverables and sneering again, yeah.

"Isn't that a pretty good thing to do?

Located in the north and inland, Larchia is somewhat colder than Terra, although within the same Flame, compared to Terra, which is relatively warm facing the sea. I don't know how long I've been in Larchia, but if I had, I would have tried knitting a conveniently thick 'sock'.

"... it's a bad habit, as always"

Emily and I know very well that we are not in a constant state. I feel sorry for myself, but I still can't do what I can't.

"... it's always like this when you meet your father"

You didn't love yourself.

He didn't look at me.

You didn't recognize yourself.

And - I 'rejected' myself.

"Huh!"

Wipe a few zero tears and make a smile even though no one is watching you. Smile as you impose your thoughts on yourself. I can't help but look hard when it's hard, and most importantly, I feel worse and worse. Bread and smack your cheeks small to switch and hold your fists small and tight. Well, I think I'll keep working.

"... Yes?

The sound of knocking on the concon and the door echoed indoors. Emily twists her neck that no one should have planned to visit today.

"Mr. Emili? Um... would you mind?

At the same time as such Emily's thoughts, a voice hung from outside the door strikes Emily in the ear. Emily's brain is precisely understanding the 'Lord' of her voice.

Kota!?

I got a weird voice. Stay in a hurry, run to the butterflies and door mouth.

"-!? Hiccup!

I stepped on my own skirt and fell. It's like a comic book, you know.

"What, Mr. Emily!? Are you all right, sir? Something sounded amazing!

"Yes, it was fine! So, not, it's okay! I'll open it right away!

I became so hastily embarrassed that I could even mock myself that Emily quietly opened the door to the room with her face dyed red.

"Uh... I'm sorry. Were you taking it in?

"Yes, no! There's nothing wrong with that!

That's what makes me smile, Emily. At the end of that gaze, he seems to have slept the usual way outside the door - and then his cheeks turn red in a different way than they did earlier in the grin where people's goodness is all over him.

"Er... Mr. Emili?

"Yes?

"Well... it's hard to say... the head of my nose is a little... red."

Red or blue, Emili's complexion today is busy. He held the head of his nose, which he would have hit with an earlier fall, and turned his back on Kota.

"Shh, excuse me!

"Oh no... I don't know, I was better off this way"

Somehow, I'm sorry and Kota bows her head. To such a Hota's trick, Emili waves her hands to the left and right as she panicked, and then holds her nose to hide her own nose with both hands as she panicked. There was something wrong with Emily like that, or Kota rattled in the back of her throat.

"Wow, don't laugh!

"Kukuku...... excuse me"

"Also, already! What is it!

Turn to Soppo like a little obstinate - Emili realizes.

- Aren't they nice? and.

"So, uh, what happened?

That's what Emily says and carries on the word so that she can shake off her happy delusions. In such Emili's words, Kota pounded his hand, as if he remembered.

"Oh, yeah. Mr. Emili, do you have any plans for today?

"Hey, is it today? No… there is something special…"

I'm done for the day. Well, I'm finishing it, so I'm knitting... I'm free.

"Really? That's good."

"Good? That's... oh, what can I do for you? Please tell me what it is."

"Well, for what it's worth... oh, no, it would be odd to say 'for'"

I get a surprise look at Kota's words with a bad tooth cut. Keep that look on, Emili tries to carry on the word.

"Emily, if you're free - 'date', could you?

Tell me what Kota said.

"... Huh?

Emily's brain understands exactly.

"... yeahhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Best of all today, Emily's complexion changed.
