The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

"Huh? Why don't you sneak into the castle and grab the monster?Hmm, well, that's fine. "

At dinner that day, I gathered everyone together to explain the situation, and then I suggested it to Mr. Crowe, and he gave me pleasure.

No, is that okay? I suggested it, but is it really okay...?

"Hey, Claire."

"Oh, don't look so worried.It's okay. I've done the monster hunt myself. "

As soon as Laocles was about to lift her hips in front of her, Mr. Crowe came up with a terrible word.

"... what do you mean you've done it before?"

In my head, I see Mr. Crowe carrying a masket gun bravely and gracefully on a white horse. [M]I don't know why it's an image of a masket gun.

"Oh, well, Corn. Think about it.Where do the Summoners come from? "

Claire smiles and asks, gracefully scooping the soup for dinner.

"From canvas and drawing paper."

"... not in your case, but in the shop for the nobles."

Ah, that's the way it is, isn't it?... I've only heard about it from Faye, so I don't really understand it.The one called the Summon Beast Shop.

"Well, most of the Summoners sold in these stores are hunted by the so-called Adventurers."

I don't know if they have a profession like that, but what do they do? Adventure?

"Adventurers can dive into ancient ruins and find Summoners with jewels in their backs, or they can find monsters in remote places where they can survive and sell them."

Listening to Claire's commentary, I think a lot in my head. [M]What is the ancient ruins?I'd like to go, too.No, there are ancient ruins in the woods, but that's not it. I'd like to go.

But what bothers me more is... 'I'm going to sell it somehow to catch the monster alive'.

"... it's not inefficient to take the monster as it is."

Summoners are convenient because they enter gems, and it's very difficult to take them alive.It would be nice if it was about the size of a tube fox, but I think it would be very difficult to catch or carry alive the Alicorn of Laocles...

"Oh, I can't help it. Because if you could buy jewelry, you wouldn't be an adventurer."

... ah, finished.

"No, it's not like she's gone.Adventurers who buy gems, place expensive monsters in them, and sell them more expensively to make money.... However, that kind of thing is mostly about the back of nobles, and it often takes the form of a request. Like me. "

In Claire's explanation, I was able to read Claire's story of "I've done monster hunting before."

Because Mr. Crowe was a spy hired by a nobleman, he must have bought his combat skills and abilities as a spy, deposited his jewels, and went to catch monsters.

"In my case, I went to get Kelpy.Look, unicorn is also true, but there are quite a few monsters who prefer women to men, right?That's why my employer decided to ask me. "

Yeah. Well, I know that.... my horse's attitude will change considerably depending on the other party.They think me and Lian are apprentices, and that's how they deal with me.It is not suitable for Fay or Laocles.However, it's very gentlemanly or openly gentle for the women of the forest.Those horned motorcycles...

Incidentally, my motorcycles don't seem to know what to do with Rene, and they're either a little slow and half-friendly or reopened and ready. It's a little interesting.

"Well, that's why I put the monster back in the jewelry, so I know.If you could just give me the gems, I'd be able to sneak into the royal castle and find the monsters. "

"... but not like catching a wild monster."

Claire said, "It's okay! ', but Laocles still seems worried.Well, it's good for Laocles to brake at times like this.

"Well, it's the first time I've ever caught a monster that belongs to someone else."

Crowe seemed to know what Laocles was saying, and she sighed a little.

"Perhaps you will think that you will appropriately fight and apply enchanting magic to weak places to obscure the king's rule and capture him in that gap.I'm just a little worried. "

Fighting to catch the weak...Well, I thought that Summoners were contracted under an agreement between monsters and humans, but that's actually all the cases.

Somehow, it's just a little shocking...

"My greatest strength is charm magic, so I wish there were monsters that could work charm magic.The monster that Princess Large saw seems to work, so I wonder if she'll go after it...Weak monsters are easy to weaken, but if the King were magically tied to them, I think they would be under a lot of influence.Then we'll surely go after monsters that are so strong that the king's reign won't be very effective. "

"Hey, Claire."

"I'm not worried about you.That's all right, I can do it. "

Laocles looks restless somehow.Maybe I have a restless face too.

... Mr. Crowe is strong. I know that.But I'm worried that you're going to infiltrate enemy territory and fight strong monsters there... as far as I'm concerned.

"If I go with you, I'll keep my feet tight."

"Yes, I'm sorry, but without you, I wouldn't be able to move."

I just asked. But after all, at these times, I can only be close to Claire's feet. [M]That's why I'm not going with you.

"Anyone who can go with me....."

"... I'm sorry, but I want to do it alone.If I'm alone, I can hide somewhere, but I don't think you can get out of the ceiling right away.... and Laocles, of course. You have a big body.It's noticeable. It's not good for covert operations. "

I have no choice but to get bored, and Laocles still has less expression, but he seems a little depressed or regretful.You can't help someone you care about.I know. I know. I know.

"So...."

"Um..."

However, Princess Large slightly broke into Claire's story.

"Can't I?"

"If I were found in the royal castle, it wouldn't be that much of a problem.At least they won't think it's an imminent attack.Besides, I know the inside of the royal castle better than anyone.How about that? Can I help you? "

Princess Large's voice is serious and sincere.After listening to her words hard, Ms. Crowe thinks, hmm.

"No, not even Princess Large.Because you're against the king, aren't you?Then Princess Large won't be suspicious if she returns to the castle now!Then why don't we still fight Laocles, corn that can do anything, or me that's the best way to be a coward?... no, I can't. "

Yeah, no fake.I'll never let you do that.

... aside from the fact that Princess Large is in danger.Princess Large, who came to us as soon as she heard that the King had sent the monster to us, will no doubt now be hostile to the King.

But Mr. Crowe thought about it... and smiled and said.

"Yes, I'll have Princess Large accompany me."

"Princess Large has two strengths, one of which is that 'even if you get suspicious when you find her, the side you find can't complain that much'.Of course. It's a princess.A soldier at the bottom would hesitate to capture you, even if the King's orders were given.Especially if you're a good soldier. "

... well. According to Claire, Princess Large is not that dangerous.

Even if the King had ordered us to "catch Princess Large as soon as we find her", the soldiers would not be able to move like that.Not to mention the 'good conscience' soldiers, who will never move.

Conversely, it is only a problem when soldiers without good sense, monsters who listen to the King's orders, or the King himself confronts Princess Large, but when that happens, the operation "Bring back the monster with you" has failed in the first place, so at that time, you have to give up and run away.

Crowe is probably the lightest and best way to mitigate the risk of being found by the King himself and others, but with Princess Large there are fewer people who shouldn't be found in the first place.I think there are plenty of cases where you can spill your eyes if Princess Large is here.

If you think so, it may not be bad to take Princess Large with you all the time...

"And the second thing, but this is the point.... hey, Princess Large. I beg your pardon, but are you the true daughter of His Majesty the King? "

"... yes, definitely."

In response to Claire's question, Princess Large responded with a little nervousness.... that was quite an amazing question, just now.

Yes, that's just fine.

But Mr Crowe smiled and flushed.Because I know that Princess Large has a complicated feeling about her blood connection with the King, I wonder why she spilled it like nothing happened.

"If there is a real blood connection, it is likely that the King can take away the monsters under his control.Yes, I think Princess Large will do better than someone else's red summoner. "

"Ah, it's been a long time... I didn't think about it."

That's what Faye said with her hands pounding.

"Hey, Fei. I wonder if Summoners can be accommodating with blood connections."

When I asked because I was concerned, Faye nodded a lot.

"The fact that blood is connected is often similar to magic, whether it's good or bad, and most magical contracts use blood or magic to identify individuals, right?That's why I think it's much easier for Princess Large to deceive you than for Claire to deceive you. "

That's right. Well, if that's what Magical Sensitive Skin Fay says, I'm sure it is.

"That's why I don't know, Princess Large.It's not necessarily safe for you.If anything happens, I'll leave you and run away to take the monster back to the woods, but will you still come with me? "

And when Crowe confirmed so, Princess Large nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, I don't mind the slightest danger if I can help you at all."

I think it's brave.

Princess Large is supposed to be a "brave man", but... I think she is definitely a "brave man" and nothing.

Then, after dinner, Crowe and Princess Large entered the consultation time as they wrote a lot on the paper.Sometimes Faye goes in there and gives opinions.

Meanwhile, Carnelia and Ange together said, "I'm going to make tea for the princess!"I was doing something in the kitchen under the supervision of Lila, and Laocles sat on the sofa with her arms restless, and Lian was staring at me.

"Hey, Lian, which one of these would Lian like?"

I asked because it was a corner because Lian was looking forward to it.

... what I have with me is the jewel I drew.

A large jewel that has been drawn out with all its strength.Diamonds, rubies, sapphires, corals, pearls, jewels I don't even know... and lots of colorful stones lined up.

Claire and Princess Large will work hard, so I want to make sure I have all the tools I need.Because jewelry for Summoners is going to play a big role this time, I am willing to have to prepare the most advanced and the best jewelry.

"Who do you like?... uh, this"

"This orange one?"

"Yeah."

"Oh yeah, how about orange... ah, how's the pigeon?"

While listening to Lian's answer, I also asked Lian's pocket, but Lian's pocket looked at the orange jewelry, slightly bent his neck, then looked at me and Carnelia, and started staring at Lian.... so clever.

Well then, let me give you this orange one.

"Huh? No, no, I don't want it.Why would that happen? "

If you like it, I think you should take it with you, so when I suggested it, Lian shook her hands in a hurry.

"This can't be helped if I have it."

"I guess so....."

If you like it, I thought you could have it for viewing.

"In general... I don't want to be awkward, I don't want to be frustrated, I don't want to be frustrated, I don't deserve it..."

That's what Lian said, retreating in the first place.I see. I thought the orange jewels would be nice.Well, let's just avoid this jewel for now.I'll prepare another one for Claire and Princess Large...

And the next day.

"Well then, Mr. Crowe, Princess Large. Thank you very much."

I handed them a bag of jewels. [M]The moment Claire received the jewelry bag, she looked a little nervous... and peeked inside the bag... and said.

"... I've been given something terrible."

Yeah. Good work. Because I wanted to help a little bit.

"Well... is there such a wonderful gem in the national treasure...?"

I see. Now I want you to show me that national treasure. I want to draw it.

"If you get paid for something like this, it won't succeed.I didn't mean to fail, but I'll do my best. "

"Yeah, both of you, be careful."

... and then they flew on a horse to King's Landing.

I'm worried, but I did everything I could.All we have to do is wait for the two of you to make it back.

... yeah.

"I'm frightened."

I see.

"You know what, Corn? This is what's bothering those who wait?You're making us taste this twitch quite often, aren't you? "

Wait, we just have to shy away.

Damn it, damn it, damn it...

We waited. I even waited.

In the middle of the day, in the evening, in the evening, oh, they're leaping in the castle right now, so I'm shy...

... and the morning came without sleep.

I thought you were coming home soon.

"Well... there must be something around here.Don't disturb yourself too much. "

It's time to go home, but neither of you will come back.

I know what Laocles is saying, but I'm not disturbed by trying to disturb my mind, and it's just shy.

... that's when it's noon.

Corn!

"Dear Corn, I'm back!"

A little tired, a bright voice comes down from the sky.

At the same time, Mr. Crowe and Princess Large appeared in the sky on a horse.

... good!

"Yes, souvenirs"

Mr. Crowe handed me a big bag.

Among them... wow, that's amazing.There was a lot of treasure in there!

"I stole it. From the royal treasure trove."

"Well... in the unlikely event that the castle is swallowed by war, these could disappear, so I brought them back with me.It's magic books, history books, and the kind of treasure that the world says there aren't two. "

Oh, I mean, this is a national treasure...

The feeling of being painted later, and the feeling of being a little frightened, I gently closed the mouth of the bag and laid it on the side.

"So, this is your destiny. Go ahead."

And then Claire gave it to me, and now it's a much smaller bag than before.

If you open it... there's a lot of jewelry inside.

Um, this is...

"As you wish, I've seduced the monsters."

... yeah.

Yeah? What? But this jewel, it's not from me... but...

Whatever it was, the monster came.

Quickly, I will have Princess Large release them.

"Now... Harpuria, come out."

That's what Princess Large said when she touched Peridot's ring and jumped out of it...

"Wow, it's beautiful!"

Half-man, half-bird creature!Both arms have wings, tail feathers, legs are predators... and their eyes shine like jewels, so beautiful!

"Can I draw it right away...?"

"Um, um... okay?"

When Princess Large heard, half a man and half a bird creature nodded with a squeal.Princess Large smiles at it and strokes half a bird under her chin.A creature that feels pleasant to be stroked doesn't feel much like a monster.

That's what I wanted to start drawing right away, but before doing so, I thought it would be better to interact with the Dolphins... and I decided to lure the monsters that Princess Large and Claire had captured to the Knights of Bones and Armor.

In addition to half-man and half-birds, creatures like big mushrooms, wolves with two heads, and so many monsters emerge, meet bones in armor, and start greeting each other.

Especially since some monsters seem to know the armor, I can see that they are kind of interacting with each other.Hmm, the armor that makes you ashamed of the light is also good inside...

Watch them interact and listen to the report from Krah.

"I'm sorry, it was a bit of a hassle."

"Yeah, if you're not hurt, I'd love to."

As for Claire, she seemed a little dissatisfied with the "hassle" this time, but I didn't complain because they both came back safely and brought the monsters back.

"Well, I've caught a lot of passing monsters, and I've been able to get out of here without seeing the King, so the mission itself has been a success.Hah, but hey... maybe I could have predicted this... "

That's what Claire sighs at.

What do you mean you could have predicted...?

"... you know, Mr. Corn. After the next time, I have to be careful."

... yeah.

I don't know. When I looked at Claire, she looked at me and gently cut me out.

"The jewels and monsters you gave me didn't get close at all."

... hmm!?
