The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)
Episode 134: An Act in the Laboratory
"... that? Am I in the wrong room?
"... Mr. Coata?
Visit Scion's room and knock three times. Instead of replying, he opened the door and came out. The seen face - Kota twists his neck about Sion's sister, Aria Baumgarden, showing her face. Keep your gaze on the inside of the room.
"Oh, is this Mr. Scion's room after all"
"... Sisterly unwillingness to see the tragedy indoors and be understood as your sister's room... right, it's your sister's room"
Aria drops her shoulders like she's just a little tired. He calls out to that figure, who looks kind of pitiful, and Kota speaks without knowing what to say. Such a look of Hota showed Aria with a bitter smile with her dropped shoulders and head raised.
"I'm good. Your sister's room is dirty, your sister's room is like a garbage dump, and your sister's room is like a rotten sea, because she deserves it."
……
"By the way, the knife fell from the top of the bookshelf earlier"
"... you're scarier than a bad haunted mansion, it"
Dead or Alive. A little bit more than a normal person...... or did Aria notice Kota coming up with a look that just said a lot of dodgy Aria survived well, she made the color of bitter laughter stronger.
"I don't know why, but even I'm dodgy and I just slip and fall in your sister's room... well, I'm not going to get hurt. In that sense, this room is safe, right?
"That's... what is it? Like this, invisible, sisterly, loving?
After Aria rounded her eyes like she was just a little surprised by the words of Kota, she laughed and showed them strangely. 'I'm sorry,' Aria bows her head to Kota, who gives a surprised look at Aria's sudden change.
"... excuse me. I never thought Mr. Coata would say anything unrealistic like that."
"... compared to the other world summons, that much 'unreal' is within reality enough. Oh, I'm not blaming you for anything else, I'm not sarcastic."
"Really? Well, compared to a different world summons, 'sister love' may be realistic."
That said, Aria turned her gaze backwards - toward a terrible, seemingly indoor.
"... I wish that 'sisterly love' could have tilted in the direction of cleaning up the room"
The highlights of Aria's eyes disappear. Hota opened her mouth as she panicked to a sole whose appearance was not a very good expression for a seventeen-year-old girl, even at a young age.
"Uh! So, Mr. Aria? Why are you here? What about Mr. Theon?
"... really, your sister... doesn't listen to me at all no matter what I say... really, over and over again..."
"Mr. Aria!
"- Many times...... ha! Shh, sorry! He was a little conscious."
"I guess..."
Like Aria earlier, Aria smiles and shows Hauta with a slightly tired look in the direction of the day after tomorrow. Later, I coughed up with Cohon and turned my gaze to Kota.
"Uh... that was why I'm here, wasn't it? Um... well, I think you'll see, your sister's room is like this, well, what shall I say, the..."
"You're dirty."
"…. Well, it didn't start now that your sister's room is' like this', and it's not a question of what I would say if I were to say it's good in person... Still, I wonder about the room where the knife falls off the bookshelf. It's not a good idea to get hurt, and most importantly, it's bad for your health in a room like this. So, I'm here to clean up the room about once every ten days - yeah!? Duh, what's wrong, Mr. Coata! My grandfather had such sweet eyes to stroke my grandson's head!
"No... you're a well done sister ~, I thought"
Hota also reaches out to Aria's head for that Aria deed, which is too healthy. It was Kota's behavior that he would never normally do, but Aria's appearance also reached out. Look at Aria, who dyes her cheeks a little and wrinkles them in her own hands, with a gaze as if she loves small animals - and notice.
"... with that said, Mr. Aria"
"... is, yes!? What is it?
"Well... back in the day, when I interrupted this room with Erica, I said, 'This is my lab! Tell Aria I won't forgive you if you come in here on your own!' I think Mr. Scion said something like that..."
Tilt your neck slightly to that word.
"... oh, I see"
Then I pounded my hand and showed it to him.
"It does have a laboratory connotation in a way that we" researchers "take from our rooms. The organization Academy is certainly a 'team', but its research results are the result of 'pieces'. So I don't normally like being indoors because I feel like I can steal the results of my research even if it's 'in me'."
"So..."
"… 'Normal' is,"
Block the said Kota, plenty of two seconds.
"... because it's your sister, isn't it? You don't care, do you?"
……
No words.
"Sure? I'm sure somewhere in this room is a few of your sister's research results. There must be... well, it's very difficult to find it. Your sister doesn't know where the hell she is."
"... he said this was the easiest, easiest to understand?
"You're lying, aren't you? I don't even know where my white coat is."
……
"Anyway, 'Clear the room. If you can't, ask Aria! It's a conversation, isn't it? So your sister says," This room is a lab! I thought I said something like that. "
"... I was watching, Mr. Aria?
"You don't have to look."
Because.
"... it's your sister, isn't it?
"... that's the strongest, that theory"
You seem to trust me, and I don't trust this kind of thing either. I can't tell you anything. Kota accidentally shut his mouth like Aria said. Silence is gold,.
"You missed the point. Uh... is that your sister?
"No, I hope I missed the conversation -"
"Sister, is it?
"- Yes."
Hota nods and shows in silence at Aria's tone, who does not say whether or not. Feeling better about the trick, Aria smiled and showed her smiling with a punch of bread and hands.
"Your sister works a little bit at the academy, doesn't she?
"Work at the academy...... work? Huh? Is it work? Mr. Theon did?
"... you know how it hurts, don't you? But, yeah, I see. Your sister is the chief researcher. There are more jobs than regular researchers, too, and they accumulate. So..."
Talking that far, Aria accidentally shuts her mouth. 'Excuse me,' he shook his hand as he lowered his head to Kota, leaning his neck towards that attitude.
"- Are you in a hurry, Mr. Coata?
"No...... Oh well, if I say hurry, is it hurry?
"Then it was just fine. Mr. Coata, it's a corner, so why don't you go to the 'Academy'?
"... to the Academy?
"I was about to head over there, too. Some things are confidential, so I'm not going to let you in the lab, but I don't care if it's in front of the lab, so why don't you give me a minute? Would you like to join us?
"Uh..."
"Your sister won't be back for days when she has a fever for research either, and it's surer and faster to go meet her from here. And..."
That's what I said, wink small.
"- Your sister will need a chance to restore her honor, too?
◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇
"Hey! What's going on with you!
"That material is here! I've got it all together!
"Helpful. Yes! What's going on with the experiment the other day? I heard it was a success.
"It was a huge success. I'm submitting it in a report, so keep an eye on it later."
"Made a deal. And... oh, yeah! What happened the other day when Wang Fu asked you to investigate?
"That's me. I have already submitted the report to Wang Fu...... do you want a copy?
"Right...... no, good. I trust your work. [M] If there's a meeting over there, I'll keep an eye on it then. Well done, thanks"
"Yes!"
Large room that is likely to open even at a dance party. Aria opened her mouth, looking funny at Kota, a woman sitting in the top seat of a large group of desks lined up with a narrow location - a glimpse of Theon.
"What do you say?
"... I don't care what you say,"
Take a breath.
"... Yep, even if you say so..."
How should I answer? That's what Hota thinks, sitting in his seat with his gaze and judging the mountain-like paperwork from right to left, he turns to Scion, who flies the instructions precisely to the staff-like people in white clothes around him.
"... who is it, who looks like a career woman who can do that job?
"... I thought I'd say. It's your sister, sister. I'm Theon Baumgarden, Principal Fellow of the Academy of the Kingdom of Flame."
To aria like that with a bitter smile, Hota turns her gaze to Theon again. Without noticing Kota's gaze, Shion has a similar face that seems difficult to see through the paperwork earlier. However, he accidentally broke his face like he noticed something, smiled fluffily and pointed it at a woman in white or something. It was around the sight that the woman who was pointed at was happily showing her cheeks blushing just a little bit and laughing.
"- Oh! Okay! You look just like me!
Kota, say something pretty awful.
……
Now there was no response. Kota took over the words as she panicked to Aria, who turned her jittery eyes.
"No, because! And it's Mr. Theon, isn't it? I'm Theon Baumgarden! You don't think the heavens and the earth would even flip over to laugh with that look on your face!
Heaven and heaven are the only pride, and the shores of arrogance are not bad. The world is for me, and I thought it was no surprise that Theon was smiling and gently unraveling at his men, colleagues, and the people he worked with.
"... what is it? I even get dizzy. The alcohol you drank the other day, you haven't lost it yet, have you, me?
"... that's probably terrible, Mr. Coata"
I sighed like I was tired and then laughed like I'd given up, 'Well, I knew,' Aria took over the words.
"Your sister... well, 'oh,' but she's still the lead researcher at the Academy. There are only three lead researchers, including your sister, and when you are above the lead researcher, there are only directors and vice directors anymore. I mean, your sister is going to be the third greatest in this academy. Well, the first two lead researchers are better off, so the sequence is fifth."
"I know that. I heard, and Mr. Zion..."
"I don't understand."
"- Great...... Mr. Aria?
Blocking Kota's words, Aria turns her gaze to Kota.
"... Mr. Coata, your sister is only twenty-six, isn't she? I dare say, 'just'. The young monk, who lived only twenty-six years, is in the third place from the top of the longest-running research institute on the continent of Orkena, in the Kingdom of Flame? There hasn't been anyone like that since history. And do you really think that a true, 'just patient' person can climb to that position?
"... it"
"Indeed, I am not saying that the fact that your sister was a guide to His Majesty or that she is connected to Baumgarden's" Blood Muscle "has never worked positively. Because this is a place for research, for academia, and at the same time for politics. But..."
Take a breath.
"- Still, don't you see that your sister is excellent... and admired by everyone?
To Aria, who moves her gaze, so that Kota can follow you. Exactly, it would be a report of failure or something. Sion punches his head small with a bitter smile as if he was in a little trouble against the 'subordinate' who shrinks himself. Waving at my subordinates bowing their heads again to say something, while the area around Zion boiled more and more. Scolded men also scratch their heads in the light of the smell, and yet there is no atrophy for failure in their eyes, and there is a flame of will burning in the challenge.
"... right?
"... Yep"
"In my personal life... well, 'there's nothing I can do about it' sister, but in the workplace I also get that kind of tingly attitude"
……
"I can't be clever enough to say that your sister herself won't be feeling too itchy, or rather some wind she enjoys... let's say... let's call your sister a treasure a little more... I can't believe it, I hope you don't treat her like 'crude' and raise her up"
"No, not that I'm dealing with 'crude'..."
"It's a joke."
Pelo and tongue-in-cheek aria.
"Just kidding...... well, be nice to him for a little while"
That's what I say, I show you a prankster's grin.
"- Because I'm the only one who deals with 'crude'. It's true that your sister can't help it."
"... you say, Aria"
"Fine, I am"
"Because she's my sister? Or because you're the biggest victim?
"Because I respect you."
That's what I said, cut my gaze, and Aria said, "Chief researcher! 'and raise your voice so that it reaches the back of the room. Sion finally noticed that voice here or raised his gaze, which was about to drop on the paperwork at hand.
"... hmm? Aria and...... Courta? It's unusual...... or not the first time, I can't believe Coata came here. Yeah, from there on out, you're off-limits except for the people involved. I'm on my way. Just wait there."
Surprised, for a moment. Saying so, Theon stood up from his chair, trying to walk out under Kota and Aria.
"............... what's up?
I glance left and right in surprise at the feeling that the noise in the room had disappeared. About thirty people jumped up their eyebrows and opened their mouths trying to keep their words open to the way people in white uniformly opened their mouths.
"... sh"
"Hmm?"
"" "" "" -To Mr. Zion, Ooooooooooooooooo!?!?!?!?!?!? "" "
Instead of indoors, a loud voice sounded all over the building.
"And a man to Senior Zion! I got a man! Oh, hey! Somebody, go run to the liquor store alone and buy some booze! We're celebrating tonight!
"Hold on! Don't expect too much! Maybe he's the only one I know! It's Mr. Theon, isn't it? Expect me not to be betrayed!
"So, but! I even told my parents and brothers, 'I don't want to go if I can. She said she was going to get sick from the air and didn't come all the way here! We must be deep friends! Yeah,' cause! That familiar Aria is with you, and she kind of misses you!
"Wow! Duh, what do we do! Is Senior Theon's wedding a white wedding dress after all? Senior! Me, I'm coming with you to pick it out!
"Right! That's Mr. Zion, isn't it? You could say, 'I'm just here in white, and I'm tired of white' and choose black! Hey, Rachel! Pick a decent dress and put it up! Because you can use it for a fee!
"Nevertheless... you're the 'that' chief Scion researcher Yicht, aren't you? What a brave man, dude! Oh, no, thank you, huh? Just that you'll have it!
"... oh! That guy! It's Rondo de Terra's" Demon King "!
"'Demon King'... I see, then can Senior Zion also be honored"
"No... but whatever. I'm so sorry! Recently, Professor Baumgarden has grown more gray."
"Oh, I know. I know! That's it, isn't it? You're talking about a lot of hard work 'cause I can't get rid of that' crochet ', right? It was pitiful... but good for you, Professor Baumgarden!
A fuss as if you had a hive. During that vortex, the women in white came together to surround Zion, which remained pocan.
"Congratulations, Senior Scion!
"Isn't that a pretty good outfit, Senior Scion! He said he slept a little. He's got eyes, but he seems nice! Coco, we haven't even met inside, and we're going to keep it tufted early!
"Good for you, Senior Scion! What time is the ceremony? Please call me!
"Yes! Please let me know ASAP! I've been working foreclosure for a month now, so I'll be sure to take the day off!
"But... seniors, where did you meet?
"Ah! That bothers me too! Huh? Huh? Where did you know him?
"I mean, which way is the confession coming from? Does it feel passionate from the other side after all?
"Chi, by the way...... is there a single man your age, Senior Kalesi? If you stay, we can eat together..."
"Ah! sloppy! Me too! Seniors, me too!
"Me and me!
Cion, which is roughly unusual for her and remains solidified. but it's also between bundles. I opened my mouth as if I had regained consciousness.
"Uh... no, you guys? You may be mistaken, but Coata and I are not that close."
"" "Yikes!!
"-Na...... why? Why, yellow scream?
"Because."
"Hey?"
"I can't believe 'Coata and I are not that close'..."
Gathered faces, eyes to eyes.
"" "Oh no, isn't that the usual means of 'hiding the lights'!
"... that's enough. Coata, we're not talking here. I'm going somewhere else."
"Shit! Somewhere else!
"Where? I wonder where you're going!
"I'm sure you and I will have a chat or something! Senior Scion, you're cute and sweet!" I'm tired of your work today. KOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Hug me
"- That's crazy! Come on, get to work!
"Yes!"
"Ah, Aria! Over here, over here!
"Yes, yes! Let me know more!
Swapped with Scion, Aria gave a delightful look into the circle of women. In contrast to such aria, Theon came to Kota's side with a slightly tired look on his face.
"... hey"
"Uh... that sounds kind of bad to me, I'm sorry. But... I didn't expect this to happen."
"... well, I don't deny it. The Academy has a lot of talented people and research enthusiasm... but it doesn't have much entertainment. Sex, shabby, etc. feed on outfits."
"... I'm so sad"
"Whose fault... well, fine. Anyway, we can't talk here. We're gonna change places."
"I don't mind...... can I?
"I don't mind. I'm asking Lotte Ong, and I thought it was time for you to come. The job itself is almost done. Our" excellent staff "will take care of it later."
That's what I said, Scion staring abominably indoors. Did you notice that Scion, all the researchers in the room took a pissy, upright immobility stance?
"" "" "- You don't have to come home today, Mr. Scion!!
"Weird! Work, work!
Look at Scion smiling beautifully in "Outstanding Stuff".
"... Oh, it's Mr. Scion's place of work after all, isn't it?
"Did I say something!
"... no, nothing"
Unfortunately, Theon was admired in many ways - and Kota had feelings like a primary school student.
