Episode 10: The Storm Contest * 4

"At the end?

I wondered what it meant, and Lyla looked back at me with a stupid face saying, "I didn't mean to talk about this."

... but when he sighed like he gave up, he started talking to me.

"Yeah, it's over. The Brompa house was scratched and many painters' names were deceived. I was bulletproof and chased after the King's City to stop painting. Then, the civilians living in King's Landing may start a riot when they hear a scandal saying," The paintings painted by others were displayed in a museum in the name of nobility. "

Lila said that and smiled a little ironically.

... well, that's no good.

"You stopped drawing?

When I heard it, Lyla looked a little surprised.

"Yes, of course it will."

I knew it wasn't working!

"Please don't stop. I like your paintings. [M] Er... even the painting of" Aurin Hulk "!

When I said that, Lyla looked a little surprised... and then she looked relieved.

"What is it? It's already moving. Good. You're fluffy. I thought you weren't doing anything."

Yes. Fai and Claire checked it out, not me...

"... I painted Aurin Hulk. Only one decorated in that museum and a few more."

Lyla sighed and said so.

"I'm surprised. Really. Then... I was happy. You said," I liked the painting of Aurin Hulk, it wasn't garbage. "

"The name alone is appreciated and decorated in the museum. If you don't have a name, you won't be seen. That's how it is. I don't know about art."

Lyla said so as if she was a little distracted.

"I don't know anyway. Because if I named it" Corn Uesora, "I thought it was a Corn Uesora painting."

"Yeah."

I think so. Especially now that I know she's been a ghost writer.

In this country's museums... or in this country as a whole. It's more important who drew it than what, and it's not even who actually drew it, but who actually drew it.

... I'm not convinced, and I'm somehow angry, but I guess that's right. Sadly.

"But I thought I'd use that name. If my name is fake, and you can see my painting, I thought... I painted it in the name of a variety of guys. Many."

Lyla is now confessing to me that she was doing something like a ghost writer, but I listen to it silently. Because I already know what you're talking about, and I think you already know Lila.

"I don't want to be valued. As long as my paintings are appreciated. Anyway, you don't have to be evaluated. A lot of people see you, give you something, take something away... and influence you, that's all. Whoever drew it, it's the same thing. There's nothing different about the painting itself."

That's what Lila said, and she dropped her eyes at hand.

What she has with her is the painting she drew. The sketchbook depicts elaborate details. Apparently, they were painting the park's exterior lights.

This painting certainly remains unchanged. Whatever name tags are attached to this picture, the picture itself certainly remains unchanged.

"I'll give you a rating on the painting. Anyway, those who appreciate the paintings at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts are just flattering. I'll give it all to the nobles. That's why... I wanted you to think of something other than a compliment. It's my painting like no other. That's why... well, that's good. Even if someone else praises me for my painting."

Lyla pretends to shake her pencil gently to comfort her. In this way, the pencil is like being made of rubber. Yeah, I do it sometimes.

"... and yet you found me."

Huh?

After a while, Lyla suddenly said so.

"Oh, I'm glad."

And when Lyla said that... she just smiled a little.

"Thank you very much. Now I'm happy."

"... so you don't have to think about me. I don't care about everything anymore, I'm lightweight... and I'm satisfied."

That's what Lyla said and stood up.

"If you insist, please ask Fai properly and crush the Brompa house. Destroy all the nobles and museums that are delighted with decorating only the name tags in this country.... you can do it, if it's the Redgard family."

And say things like a storm.

Crush it all.... somehow, I think she's like this again. After all, it's like a storm.

"... well, I'm bothering you guys. Let me use it myself."

Then Lyla said that and looked bad. I feel somehow unusual, and I feel a little strange. [M]

"But, well, it's like a house with a red dragon, so you can handle it. After all, the Brompa family is just a family run by their parents, Nanako. I think if I slap you, you'll be worn out as much as you want."

Even more so, Lyla laughed a little too much. It's like "heh." That's what I'm saying.

"... that's what this is all about. Your honor will soon be restored. If they sue me, I'll make a proper confession."

"Um...."

When I looked at Lila's face, I didn't know what to say, but I thought I had to say something... and I said,

"I wish you'd talked to me first, I think."

As soon as I said that, Lyla laughed, and then the shards laughed.

"Really weird! That won't do you any good!... oh, but yes. If I knew you were one of these guys, maybe I should have talked to you about it."

Somehow I miss her words.

"But, well... forgive me, I won't tell you, but I'll tell you to give up."

I miss you so much.

I miss being made to give up, and I miss being given up. My chest feels irritable.

Well, say hello to Master Fai.

That said, Lyla quickly walks out.

"Um...."

When I called, Lyla couldn't stop anymore. I just left a word behind.

"I look forward to the results of the competition and your paintings."

I kept staring at her until the carriage in which she got in moved out.

My chest is irritated. I think I have to do something about it, but I don't know what to do specifically.

... Lyla's right, I think Fei needs to do something about it. I am not strong in aristocratic relationships, and if we talk about aristocracy, we have to do it among aristocracy.

But... then, I'm sure Lyla will stop drawing.

On the contrary, I'm sure he'll disappear somewhere else.

She lost her mother, Claire said. Lyla herself said she was "light."

Then... maybe she's really gone... like this...

Thinking about it, I felt really bad.

I knew it was no good. I like her paintings and, above all... I'd like to talk to you a little bit more. Well, not in this way.

Her way of thinking is something I don't know. But I'm sure it's something I need. [M]

I don't know how to appreciate it, and I don't know how to ask for fame, but I'm sure. I think I need it. [M] Or maybe you won't need it now, but you'll need it someday...

That's why I want to talk to Lyla more. I have doubts about "ratings" in a different way than I do, and like me, I like painting. I'd like to talk more to her like that.

Hmm... I don't know what to do. How can we finish the competition and Fei sue Brompa and talk to Lyla afterwards? And how can Lyla paint at that time?

I have a forest. [M] There you can draw as many pictures as you want. But I don't think Lyla is. Maybe you can't paint without someone's protection, like the Brompa house. I suppose you'll need art materials as well as an atelier, and then... I wonder if you'll ever need a world or a place.

... there's something I don't know what Lyla is going to do.

However, it seems that she is moving to 'end it all' because she is trying to throw out all of that stuff, and if she doesn't want to throw it out anymore, it won't be forgiven...

... mmm.

"How can I grab Lyla?"

That day, Fei coughed when he said that while eating dinner in the room of the King's City inn.

Are you okay?

"No, are you okay? That's not true... Are you okay? That's my dialog...."

Really?.... Huh?

"You, kidnapping is a bit of a boulder, huh? You can't, can you?

... ah, I see. No, I can't.

Oh, yeah! No, no, no! I don't know what to do, I feel like I was trying to do something normal! Wow......!

"... your senses are getting apart from you."

I wonder if it's because I've become a spirit.

"I'll be careful...."

Somehow, um... since I came to this world, I may have gotten too much of what I wanted, and my senses may have gone crazy. Or maybe it's because I've become a spirit...

"But why did you suddenly try to kidnap me?"

A little calm, Faye asks me that. Um, why is that...?

"I hated it when she stopped drawing. And I want to talk to her more."

Then I told her what I heard in the park. [M] If we sue Lyla, the Brompa family will be guilty, and then it will be bright that she has been doing something like a ghost writer until now, so it will be a problem about the museum's "name tag exhibition".

... then Faye, Crowe and Laocles will all look complicated.

I see. I don't know... "

"Well, I thought you might have a grudge against the Brompa family, but that's what happened. That's pretty good. That girl."

"I don't think you've been praised for using the House of Corgo and Red Gard to do that."

It seemed that there was something in each of them, and each of them kept silent for a while.

"Perhaps if this continues, Lyla Razwald will be imprisoned for cheating the nobles. You can go to jail, but maybe it's because of the mouth seal..."

And then, a little bit later, Faye, who first opened his mouth, said that.

I see. Is there a "mouth seal"?... I don't like it.

"So, well... it's not a compliment, but I don't know if you can grab Lyla before she does. Of course, it's just a way of doing things."

"Yeah."

That's right. Yeah. Somehow, I feel like I have no choice but to... No, I know. I know it's a bad thing to grab people. I know, but...

"Well... if she wanted it herself, it might not be good to say that she wouldn't have had all this trouble."

Next, Mr. Crowe said so and leaned his head in trouble.

"Can you do that?

"Yes, if you think about it. If you let the aristocrats who have had Lyla paint until now root it out beforehand, they will be allowed to secretly 'erase' Lyla in order not to damage their honor."

"Don't turn it off."

"Yeah, that's why I hid it in the woods."

I mean, grabbing people. I knew you'd end up here...

"But then I can't ask you how the museum is today. As a stormy girlfriend, it could be a disappointing outcome."

"I guess.... if she wants to throw her life away and sue, I think she should."

For Lyla, it might be like I was told, "I can't paint for the rest of my life, but I can live in good health." That's not good.

"Even if you grab it, you'd better collect bail after you're imprisoned. Doing so would certainly make you suspicious... but the prison staff are free and not interested in the outside world. Just give me the money and I'll keep quiet."

I'm familiar with it.

"Did you forget? I'm a criminal slave."

I see. If you say so, Laocles was a criminal slave. I forgot.

... oh.

"Perhaps Lyla will become a criminal slave?

"I don't know. You're going to blame the nobles, and you're going to complain to the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, right? That means you can't complain to His Majesty the King. I think they're gonna see a lot of problems, huh? I doubt you'll ever be a criminal slave."

I thought I'd buy her a slave and go home, but it's not that sweet.

"... in the first place, nobles and royalties may end up rubbing away the claims of one girl. I hope it stays in the corner of the people's memories, but the people don't want to shield His Majesty the King."

"I mean, absolutely what the king says?

"Well, that's a strong side. You're the greatest man in the country, aren't you? Of course, His Majesty the King will draw some public opinion, but it may be unacceptable to say," Don't add value to your nametag in the museum. "

I see. I feel a little angry.

"If you complain to His Majesty the King, you'll have to abandon yourself like Lyla. Who's better than a king than a god?

Oh yeah. Throw yourself away, God...

... God?

"Well, if he's a god, he's got one, but he can't."

Look, dragons are, in some places, gods... No?
