"Thank you, Mr. Riola"

"Yes, no! You're welcome..."

When Riola carried the tea and placed it on the table, Prince Algort smiled small and thanked him.

Besides, I'm surprised you called Riola's name properly. Riola from the first meeting (...) looked at me with a confused, ambiguous grin.

The chair at the long table in the living room is renamed 'Chiu Tai' and the former prince (...) Algort sits down a bit.

"You know about Riola, don't you?

"Of course it is. Mr. Iola to Mr. Riola. Mr Gugrecas and Mr Manuferno. Mr. Metius the Fairy to Mr. Lentomia. To Mr. Spiano, who came here with me, Mr. Luroni. And four children. I'm also friends with the residents of the garage.... because I've been in this mansion for, uh... two years? No, I've been here for almost three years."

"Ooh...!

"Wow, that's right...!

Seems to convince Riola, too. Sure, 'Chuta' has been around since I got here.

"I remember when I was a rat, though vague and blurry...... Everyone in the hall used to call each other names all the time, so I remember them very well."

Answers in a clear tone. The words are polite, but it doesn't feel like there's room either. Was it worn in the royal palace life in Israel?

"Mm-hmm. Great. If I got ratted, I'd panic, and I wouldn't be so calm."

"No, I was confused at first too, what happened. I was crying and screaming... yes, my brother (oh my god)...! What about Brother Ergonote (oh my god)? I want to see you right now!

Former Prince Algort began to panic. I was suddenly excited and tried to get up from the chair, and sat back down as if I had noticed a glare. She also turns her complexion and is blue.

"Take a pee, it's okay......! I'll see you soon, so just calm down."

"Brother Ergonote..."

Perhaps from here on out is the core part about why former Prince Argoat was cursed by the rats and why Ergonote got the treasure sword.

It has been a mystery for a long time, you may know what it was like on the day of Israel's demise.

Though coming to terms with the truth of history, it's a prerequisite to calm it down now. It's not too late to listen after a breath.

Sit down so that the manuferno leans against the side and gently calm down with his hands on his back.

"How are you? Not bad? Just try some tea."

"Yes, I'm fine. … tea, please."

Lifting the herbal cup that Riola had carried, she brought it closer to her face and slowly inhaled the fragrance. Ha, I just took a small breath and finally put my mouth to it.

Tilt the cup and poured the tea into his mouth, placing the cup quietly.

"... that's a good smelling herbal tea. It's warm and sticks to your body. Oh, how delicious."

"Don't bother. I don't need it. Aren't you hungry?

Manuferno is worried about his health, but he doesn't seem to have any after-effects of the curse. Looks like he just panicked a little bit because of the cloudy memories.

As for the body, 'ancient magic' worked well and seemed to have been kept well in the 'as it was' state.

"I'm a little hungry, then. Because cheese was about to be eaten."

"Ha, you did"

Redness on cheeks and jokes. The fact that I drink tea is a delight in itself, and I put my lips on the cup again.

He says he has red brown hair, amber eyes, and a side that is still rather 12 years old. But that means you're old when you're a rat with a curse. Six or so years have passed since then and should have been 18 years old by nature.

But even if the curse is broken, the body does not see any signs of change as it was then. Six years, it seems like the time I had stopped as a child moved out of there again.

My stomach started moving while I was drinking tea or my stomach rang small.

"Ah..."

"Right now, because the three of us are ready."

When Riola went to the kitchen to see how it was, the threesome just showed itself.

"Thick, I made sandwiches."

"Some baked sweets we all made."

"Eat it, Dace!

And just, and Pram and Hemperoza and Larna came from the kitchen. Place a sandwich with raw ham and cheese in the bread and the rest of yesterday's baked sweets in front of former Prince Argoat, side by side on a plate.

"Wah...! Wow, looks delicious! Can I eat?

"Fine. Enjoy."

"Let's stick to the plum."

"Well, you must be hungry to be fat."

hands flickering as the pram panicked a little to Hemperosa, who giggled at

"Thank you, Pram, Hemperoza, and Larna. It's delicious."

Former Prince Algort, who quickly mouthed the sandwich, smiled with a grin. Pram and Larna respond at the same time with a cheerful smile.

"Please eat a lot - Chuta!

"To Prince Algort!

Pu and Plum swelled their cheeks as Hemperoza stuck and flanked Plum from side to side.

"... Prince or something, I'm kind of embarrassed."

"I don't mind" Chuta ", do I? The country is gone, too. It's weird to be called a prince."

Former Prince Algort spoke to the two of them like that, cheeky with a sandwich.

"But call me by the name of a rat."

Pram thought "hmm" there and eventually let his eyes shine.

"So... of" Chutai "... Tai, how about Takun -?

"Takun...... Where did Algort disappear?

"Tuck, brother. No, easy to call, Dace."

"Oh, that's good, Plum"

"Are you sure?!?

"From now on, I'll call you Takun."

Plum with a smile like a solder. And former Prince Algort.

But when you stare at the pram with a more serious look, you tie your lips in one letter.

"But Plum. No, I bid you farewell."

"Uh... why not?

"Why?

Former Prince Algort looked around in the living room dining room as he took his seat. Then he took his gaze off the flashing plum and leaned quietly down.

The next time he raised his face, his eyes dwelt a light of strong will.

"I have to go back to my country... to my hometown of Israel. So, with my brother, I want to build a new country!

"Hey, what no...!
