The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

"... that's not good."

I gathered everyone together and started a tactical meeting. And Laocles, who read the paper, just said, "Oh no."... Laocles' expression, which is less spoken than usual, tells the seriousness of the situation...

"... are you going to grab oniichan in the corn?

"When, you might get caught... Hmm."

Ange looks like she's about to cry, but that's how I feel.

"And when the corn goes to jail, I'll go in there every day!

Carnelia's positive feeling is a bit irritating... Ugh.

... the letter that arrived at Fai simply said, "There is a fear that Red Gard painter Tougo Uesora has kidnapped Third Princess Large. I will send a corps from Wang Dynasty, so help me arrest the suspect."

"Um, Faye. What about your father and brother?

"We are taking measures. In the meantime, I'll be able to move my soldiers anytime, so I'll give you a moment, so I'll buy you some time. I'll buy you some time over there. My dad's the best in the country if he gives me an excuse!

I see. Is that reliable...? Yeah. No, I'm always really looking after you.

"Damn, it's a corn. You're guilty of the worst part. I still know....."

"Oh, is the man who kicked Princess Large's engagement kidnapping Princess Large?

Claire said that Fai looked up at heaven and moaned as if she remembered the awkwardness. Yeah... sure, kidnapping by kicking your engagement is a strange story.

"... well, normally speaking, Princess Large's destination is somewhat investigated, and I think she's been targeting the 'worst part' of the destination."

Claire sighs when she sees such a fake.

"I mean, if you come to this town, you'll know that you're the maker of this town, and I know that you're a favorite of the Corn and the Redgard family. As for the Redgard family, it's only natural to target you as a royal."

Oh, I see. I'm like the leader of the most developed town in Red Gard territory, so attacking me would be an attack on the Red Gard family. So, uh, I...

"... um, Fay. Do you like me...?

"Son of a bitch, it's my favorite."

Oh, I see. Do you like me? [M]... I'm getting a little irritated.

"Already! Corn! I don't smell there!

Ah, it appeared on my face. No, I need to tighten my face properly.

"... so, what do we do with this? They'll step into the woods for" securing the suspect. "Instead, I may have sprayed it to make the town of the woods rough for soldiers."

... I wonder why you want to ruin the town. I don't understand that feeling. [M] Still, they won't leave us alone. Then we can't just leave the Royals alone.

"I don't know, I don't know how to fight. We can't use Red Gard soldiers. The Redgards will be rebellious against the royal family."

"And the Knights of the Bones?

"Let them out. I was told that I was communicating with monsters, so I could finally burn them down."

Uh-huh...

"That's right... but if you guys get used to it, it's cute, but it might be hard to accept except for people in this town."

Yeah. The skeleton specimens... well, they don't look good to the royals. That's why you can't put it on the front, right?

"The Knights of the Forest....."

"We don't care what happens. But if we move, this town will be rebellious against the royal family...."

I can't do it this way. The Knights of the Forest are the Knights of this town. So if they rebel against the royals, the town itself will be rebellious against the royal family, and then the royal family will be given a pretext to attack the town.

... mmm. I really don't know what to do. This one.

"Am I going to jail?

"No, Corn. I won't forgive you! You're never going to put me in jail!

Oh, yeah.... I'm relieved. I'm sorry I made you feel safe.

"You don't have to think you're gonna make it out of jail. They're more cruel than us. Even the boys won't hesitate to torture him."

... it hurts a lot. Yeah, I don't want to go to jail as much as I can.

"Oniichan, can't you hold on? Really?"

"Ah, yeah... I don't want to get caught if I can, so I'll try not to get caught."

When I answered, Ange said it was nice to have a little peace of mind. [M]... it's a pleasure to have someone who can make you feel safe.

"I don't know what to do. I can't resist. I can't get the corn out. then....."

When we were worried, Princess Large stood up with a modest noise.

"I'm going to go out and talk."

And Princess Large has a pale face and says so.

"It's all my fault. I ran away from here... like this."

... that's what Princess Large says, but perhaps the king wanted to do to this town. I don't know if Princess Large ran away or not. Mm-hmm.

"Oh, well, Princess Large would certainly have been an easy excuse. But don't worry about it. Sooner or later, this happened anyway. If you try to twist the excuse, it'll be as much as you want."

"But"

"Besides, I don't think anything will change if you leave. Perhaps you will be" kidnapped and imprisoned by Tougo Uesora ". Whatever you say. And if you don't return the sword of the brave to the royal family, this town will be under royal scrutiny anyway."

Yeah, that's right. Not only Princess Large, but also the sword of the brave. The Royals must be after it, and this town will be the target of a royal attack anyway.

"So, that's not good either. I can't resist, but I can't get a corn out. And neither Princess Large nor the sword of the brave! The sword, the princess and the corn are all ours!

That's a cool fake. Fay is always cool, but I think he's the coolest when fighting like this...

"... is that okay?"

In the meantime, Princess Large was zero.

"There is no need to explore each other's stomachs, and there is no useless struggle. Under the protection of the Spirit, peace is preserved, whether it be peace or not.... is it okay for me to be in such a beautiful place? I bring disaster to this beautiful world."

"It's okay. Whether Princess Large is here or not, it looks like this forest is being targeted."

"But wouldn't I be able to disperse the power of the enemy without me?

"It would be easier to put it together if we could defeat it anyway, right?

Me and Fai will answer, but Princess Large's expression won't clear up.

"... if I go out in front of my father, he will have to back off once. My father can't stand up against me. Then, if you could hide behind the woods and give the sword of the brave to the true brave..."

"Still no good. Either way, Princess Large has to go back. Then you can't do anything face-to-face, but you don't know what you'll do behind your back, do you?

When Fai asks, Princess Large looks even more thoughtful.

"Why do you say that? This is my fault. It is a calamity that I have called you to. And yet, why are you protecting me? This wouldn't have happened if I hadn't come!

Sure, maybe so. Maybe you don't have to cover for Princess Large.

However, I don't think Princess Large is at fault this time. If she hadn't come here, it would have been more difficult, and the forest remained unaware of the imminent danger.

Besides... I'm sure I don't want to offer her that kind of unreasonable.

"I thought this might be your place."

I was happy to see her somehow happy in the woods.

"... mine"

Princess Large was pounding. But on the way, I smile a little bit.

"... I'm sure it's too comfortable here... to really forget where I belong."

A real place to stay.

When I saw Princess Large saying that, I wondered... if the teacher felt the same way back then. The teacher who did me in the narrow world, "There are places like this, and there are people like me, boy," I wonder if that's how he felt.... I'm glad I thought so too.

"Hey, what is your place, the royal castle? I wonder if this one is right for you. I don't think you need to tie yourself up in a place that's uncomfortable for you."

"... eh?

"I think you're fit to be here. Leaving aside all sorts of circumstances and reasoning, I don't think it's 'better to be here'... purely for you. So I thought I should tell you as one of the people in this place."

Princess Large is also pounding. Anyway, everybody is pounding.... I guess it was too abrupt. But I want to tell you that there is certainly something left after deducting all the reasoning.

"I'm just tired of wasting my time in uncomfortable places. Nothing is born. So if you don't have to work hard, you can stay in places like this where a lot of things are born. People here can do that."

I hold Princess Large's hand.

"If you can do your best, don't try to fight the king alone. I want you to work hard together here."

Princess Large seemed lost. I wonder if I can grip my gripped hand back. I feel so lost... and then my hand stretches out from the side.

Heh

While Princess Large was surprised, Faye grabbed my hand back from Princess Large's. The point is, Faye's hand made Princess Large hold my hand.

Princess Large, wrapped in Faye's hand and shaking my hand, smiled... but when I said hello, she finally showed me a smile.

"Yes, if you'll excuse me here... if you'll let me stay here. I will do my best. So please... come with me."

"Yeah, come with me!

This time, without Faye's hand, Princess Large took my hand at her own will. A thinner, softer hand than mine wraps my hand. I'm glad it's kind of warm. [M]

Now there are more inhabitants in the forest town. Welcome! Welcome!

"... so what do we do?"

After a while, Princess Large and I smiled, Faye cut out a little farther away.

"Well, I've said a lot, but after all, you haven't come up with a solution."

Yeah, that's right. This is the subject.

"Well then, that's it! Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

"Dear Carnelia, Be careful. In a slightly more peaceful way."

Carnelia is an extremist. Yes. The all-out war is a bit...

"That's good! I don't like corn being taken with me! Then the Royal Soldiers should be taken!... but I feel sorry for you being put in a cold cell, so I'll put candy bars on the marshmallow floor!

Oh, good. Carnelia was an extremist, but a fluffy extremist. Right. Marshmallow's floor jail. Yeah, it looks kind of soft.

"Hey, Corn. You can't make all the rivers around town? Why don't we defend ourselves?

"No, if the dragon can help us, but if we do that, it will cause a lot of trouble to the people in the forest town...."

Waterways can't be built so easily, and they can't be removed so easily. No, it might be a good defense.

"Hmm, no. I can't think of anything. If we fight, it could be an all-out war, and if we do, the Red Gard territory will be the most unstable place in the country... and that's not what Faith and the others want."

Yeah, that's why it's hard.

"I can't fight, but I can't put out the corn. I wonder if there's no other solution but to put out a corn without fighting... But perhaps the other party's goal is to damage Red Gard territory, and then they won't be able to back down in response to the discussion....."

"Threaten with bones?

"... well, now, isn't that just a real target for you?

"In a town full of bones, corn walking with bones is suspicious..."

"Onii-chan. It's not easy for you to be in the corn."

"Well, Ange and I both know that corn is just weird. If you don't know him, he'll say," Demon King or something. "

Really?... If I'm mistaken for a demon king, I'll stop. Mm-hmm.

... hmm?

Ah, are you sure?

"... hey, corn. I'm sure you've come up with something strange again."

You're being rude. It's not weird. Unfortunately, it's a good idea.

"I will become a demon king. So, I apologize to the kings, but I'm afraid I'm going to intimidate them a little and ask them to leave. Then... Fay or Laocles, somebody do the brave thing. That's when the brave man knocked me out. The king will see it and come home. What do you think?"

"Well, that's...."

Everyone began to think. Yeah, I want you to think about it. I don't think it's a bad idea.

"... isn't that the guy that Moro can see in the royal family? No, neither are you, but so are you."

... ah, I see. Yeah, that's right. The King hated it when the brave defeated the Demon King and gained power. Therefore, if you do that, it will cause a lot of trouble to someone in the heroic role....

"Well, uh, then I'll be the only one."

"Then you'll just be targeted!

"In the first place, what will you do after you become a demon king? You'll never get out of town again after being crushed."

Oh, I see. I couldn't. Quickly, my opinion was useless...

"... no, I don't think so."

But that's what Crowe said... smiled and showed Princess Large.

"If His Majesty the King avoids the creation of a powerful man other than the royal family and doesn't want to have a brave man... then Princess Large can be a brave man."

"Wow, it's me!?

It's a good idea.

"Ufufu. Right?

Yeah, that's a good idea. Great idea. Wow. Yes, Princess Large is a royal ally to us. So, if Princess Large is happy, so are we, and so are the royals.

"Um, I can't even use the sword of a brave man...."

"Oh, then I guess we should make a fine fake.... so, Mr. Corn. Draw a sword like the sword of a brave man."

That's it! Then we need to start making props!
