... and then...

Within two days, the forest regained its original state.

The evacuated animals quickly found a new place to live and settled down in the new forest, and the food stockpile also burned, so I drew a little and made up for it.

The newly painted forest was completely familiar and settled in me. [M]The feathers also settled down on my back.... well, since Rene is happy, Ange is happy, and Lila seems to be drawing and enjoying it, let's do it.

And then the town of Soleira.

Rehabilitation is also underway, as it has burned somewhat in the aftermath of the arrival of the Kachikachi Arson.Somewhat prepared.

It was up to the carpenter to rebuild the house, but we gave the money to hire the carpenter.The townspeople tried to say, "I'm sorry I didn't burn because of Mr. Corn," but... but I'm sad that the forest town is still burning, too.For the sake of Soleira as a whole, I let you out.

Then, fortunately, they managed to take care of what they really cared about.

Well, the only thing that mattered was whether it was left on fire, burnt, or just something I had seen... so I borrowed it, went home, painted it, fixed it, and gave it back.

... I've prepared a lot of excuses for that.There's magic like that, and I just polished it a little bit, and I'm studying to repair the artwork, and when I looked for the burn marks again, I found them.

And yet...! They were so happy to see the fixes, and before I made an excuse, they said, "The Spirit of the Forest is here!"And for some reason, you've convinced me... well, for me, it's a bit complicated.

Ah, but since the offering has become more luxurious than usual, I appreciate it.I'm eating birds. Or rather, the birds seem happy.

... yeah, well, okay.

No, today. Me and Faye are meeting at the fairy café with Princess Large.

"We're going to hold a press conference on the Kachikachi King of Arson."

Princess Large reported it to me.

... a week after the rattling arson king came out.As a royal family, we won't be able to postpone the announcement any longer.

He postponed the meeting to this point... one because he waited for the woods to return somewhat.

"If House Argent were to move, it would be here.Based on the announcement from us, what are you going to do? "

At the same time, I was watching the Argent family.

The Argents haven't shown any movement since then.

It seemed like Mr. Ruggylos and Mr. Argent were arguing, and they might not be able to come together.So, if the rattle arsonist can't move immediately after he leaves, I may have decided to stop moving until the royal announcement.

Anyway, if they moved, it would be after a reaction from the royal family... and in the royal announcement, they would say, "The rattling arsonist is out." At the same time, they would be very vigilant to the Argent family.

"The forest is ready. The boundary was firmly reconfirmed.Unless you unseal it inside the barrier and come out, yes, no enemies can enter the barrier. "

"As long as it's reliable."

Princess Raju smiles gently, then turns around and looks around.... several houses around the fairy café are being rebuilt.Look at that, Princess Large smiles again.It's not bad to see something coming back.

"Still, I wonder what the Argents are going to do. I can't imagine."

That's what Faye said and fell down on the back of the chair.Faye must be tired of working all the time while I'm asleep. Good work.

"That's right... according to the story of Toko, Ruggylos-Zeil Argent has something to do with the master of the Argent family."

Yeah, that's right.I wondered if the policy was different.Somehow that's what I thought.

"So it was at Ruggylos' discretion... that Argent himself wanted it, or even if he wanted it, it was still the time..."

"Ruggylos Zeil Argent is a little radical.It was also said in the social world.That's why this time... maybe it was. "

I see. Mr. Ruggylos, it's a bit tricky.

I don't know... if that's the case, I'm worried too much.

How will House Argent move after the royal announcement?

And the royal family informed the king that they would meet tomorrow at noon.We are on alert with the expectation that Argent will now move.

... if Agent is going to do anything, I think he's going to be the King's City, not Sola.I don't think Soleira has anything to do with the resurrection of the Kachikachi arson king, who was their goal anymore.

So we've been in King's Landing since the morning of the meeting...

A podium had already been set up in the square of King's Landing.We have a royal announcement here at lunch, and there are already a few people gathered here.Even without a meeting, this is a place to rest in King's Landing, so people can be seen everywhere...

... in that case.

"Ah"

We found it.

Walking straight towards the podium, Mr. Ruggylos!

"Listen!"

Before we reacted, Mr. Ruggylos said so and gathered the attention of the people.

The people who were waiting for the royal announcement were surprised by the sudden appearance of Mr. Ruggylos.

... nobody here knows that Mr. Ruggylos has become a monster, nor that he wanted the resurrection of the rattlesnake.

For the people of King's Landing, Mr. Ruggylos is still a 'brave man'.

"You all know that.There is a Demon King in this world now! "

In my arms, the demon king's p * ssy!I rang. No, maybe it's not about you...

"Many of you will be anxious.The Demon King is about to throw this world into the abyss of darkness again! "

Again, the Demon King!and cheerfully ring.... the people of the King's Landing are looking at us, listening to Mr Ruggylos' speech."I'm sorry, my demon king is too noisy..."

"Now the Demon King is in Soleira, Redgard Territory.I heard that Soleira was devastated by the Demon King..... "

No, it wasn't that much damage, and it was almost rebuilt.

Many were wounded, and indeed the power of the demon king was known.Oh, yes. The Demon King is powerful.The Demon King is definitely going to destroy the human world.Many will have heard of that vicious declaration of war! "

No, no, the wounded are almost healed, and the power of the Devil King is unknown in the first place.

... that's right. The declaration of war was not in the ears of humans, Mr. Ruggylos!

Was Mr Ruggylos' speech taken by or pardoned by the stiff-necked people?People who are listening look like, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Anyway, our neighbors said, "No, I just brought agricultural products from Soleira this morning..." "My nephew who was going to the ceremony also returned safely." "A declaration of war in the first place?What are you talking about? "... What are you talking about?

... the credibility of Mr. Ruggylos's story is fading!

Eventually, Mr. Ruggylos raised a replica of the sword of the brave… and declared it softly.

"But I'm a brave man! This' brave man ', Lugus Zeil Argent, will surely defeat the Devil King and bring peace to this world again!"

It seems that the sword of light shining a little modestly is beautiful, and many people thought 'oh' when they saw it.Of course, for those who thought so, what is a declaration of war?Though it is a face.

... that's how Mr. Ruggylos finished his speech.Argent looked at it a little further away and nodded with a slightly shitty face, like, "Well, that's the point."

Well... um...

While we see the people in the town bothering us...

... "Demon King" is a little cat-like creature in my dark, irregular shape, and it's a bit complicated feeling.

And then... seeing Princess Large in the square, imagining the royal meeting that's about to begin... it's getting more and more complicated.

Uh... yeah.

By speaking before Princess Large's meeting, I think she tried to impress herself more strongly than Princess Large.The operation itself could not be mistaken, and it might have been a sine qua non against Princess Large.Because the impression is that the early winner wins.If there are two people who say the same thing, I think that it is easier for the person who said it earlier to gain support.

But this time... I think it would have been better if we had just seen Princess Large's meeting.

After all, there it is... the rattling king of arson, so...

Around Princess Large, Mr. Ruggylos, who got off the stage, stared at Princess Large.On the other hand, Princess Large has a neat face.... when it comes to acting, it's acting, and when it comes to reacting as it is, I guess.Princess Large didn't know she was here.

"Er... now, let's announce from the royal family."

When the attendant at the venue put it forward, Princess Raju strangely dropped off Ms. Rugulos and stood firmly on the podium and bowed.

"… Ladies and gentlemen, the Third Princess Large would like to report on the disaster that occurred in Soleira."

On the stage, Princess Large stood.Standing, talking magnificently.

... it's quite unusual for Princess Large to appear as part of the royal family, not as a brave man.Mostly King or Prince Aureus comes out...

"For the record, Soleira is a town in Red Gard territory, in the Independent District of the Union of Lords, so the Royal Family has no authority.However, the royal family has nothing to do with this disaster.Some of the people of King's Landing would have gone to Soleira that day.This is how the meeting was held to relieve the anxiety. "

After that, Princess Large... started talking.

"First of all, the person who brought the fire to Soleira... some of you may have seen her.The giant body shaking like a flame, hallucinating. "

The people of King's Landing groan.

Some of them actually saw him.In fact, there were a lot of people coming from King's Landing to do the Monster Friendship Square in Soleira at that time.

While watching the reaction of such people, Princess Large continued.

"That giant monster is the one who set the fire to Soleira.Soleira has the power to defend the Spirit, but I think she attacked him.In particular, the current Soleira has already taken measures against monster attacks, so it won't be a second time.... "

Yeah, I won't forgive you again.When I nodded, my eyes met the Princess Rage on the stage.When Princess Large laughs at me, she keeps talking.

"... but it is also possible that the monster will reappear.At that time, the target might be King's Landing, not Soleira.Therefore, in haste, the royal family moved to consolidate the defenses of the King's City... and decided on the name of the monster for a quick response when it reappeared. "

We were so nervous that we waited for Princess Large to announce it.

Everyone waits for Princess Large's words.Only Argent and Ruggylos, who were listening a little further away, had a strange face...

"Based on the abominable work of burning the Spirit-like Forest, I will name this monster" Kachikachi Arson ".

...... With the announcement of Princess Raju, the people of the capital were puzzled, and when they saw the Argent collapse, they were wrapped in a mysterious sense of accomplishment.

No... I mean, yeah. Something... something's fine.

"If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.I will answer as much as I can. "

Princess Large looked around the square as if nothing had happened.Then there was an immediate raise of hands.

"Um... isn't the monster who attacked Soleira the demon king...?"

"Yes, that's the 'Kachikachi Arson'.In the first place, the Demon King is already in Soleira.You're a cute, fuzzy, cute person who teases the country at night.The star pattern is on my stomach, and it's very friendly to people.I think there was an announcement before.... "

When Princess Raju said that, the people of the town sat down with a nod with a face like "That's right".... my demon king, he seems to be a bit famous in King's Landing.I see. Wow...

"Princess, what the hell is a 'rattling arsonist'...."

"We don't know much about it either.I didn't make any particular statement, and it disappeared quickly... but I think we need to be vigilant because we might be burning down the forest, the town, or the King's City again.I'm ready to fight if I have to. "

Princess Large answers the next question in a polite way... but I don't think so.Maybe the people in town wanted to hear about the name "The Crispy Arson"!

"Ah, how did you decide on the name of the 'Sticky Arson'...."

Sure enough, "That's not what I wanted to hear!', such questions came up.That's right, it bothers you, I'm sorry...

"That's how I named her because she was the one who burned Soleira's woods.The hiccups are the flints. "

Oh, the town's in trouble! I'm in so much trouble!

But it can't be helped! This is for my demon king too! I'm sorry!

"I'm glad the meeting ended safely."

The courtyard of the royal castle. We were having a party to work with Princess Large while we had tea and snacks.

The treats at the castle are delicious, and the snacks at the castle are delicious.On my lap, the Demon King quickly eats fish and pickles sandwiches.And the mood is ringing.

"No, well done! Very good, Princess Large!"

While we were delicious, they let us relax... Among them, Faye said so with a smile full of faces.

"Argent was in a lot of trouble, and the people were convinced... or convinced, or convinced... Anyway, I know Argent's prospects, and they're sealed! It's a huge success!"

Thank you, and Princess Large laughs.He looks a little tired, but more than that, he smiles brightly with a sense of accomplishment.

... but I get caught up in what Fai said earlier.

"Well, after all, I wonder what they were after."

...... Agent's prospectus. Aim.That's what I still don't understand.

Then Fei roared a little... and answered me.

"In the meantime... for sure, I think their prospect was to 'be a real hero'."

"'A true hero'? Does that mean you get a huge amount of magic, or use the sword of light?"

Speaking of which, I stole a replica of the Sword of the Brave, and I thought to myself,

"Ah, well, the point is to defeat the Demon King.Defeat the Demon King after stirring up public anxiety and it will definitely be supported."As a true hero."

... oh, is that so?

That's what I heard... all at once.

"That bastard stole the sword of a brave man for that.Besides, I tried to resurrect him to defeat him and spread my support.That... that ticklish arson king... "

So Fay shook his shoulders... and laughed.Well... that's the name, isn't it?

"It's hard to forgive to leave aside the wonderful naming of the rattlesnake..."

Eventually, Fay, who had finished laughing and returned to his serious face, said so.

"I resurrected their Demon King to defeat him.Until then, the interests of both the Demon King's servants coincided, so I guess I joined hands.I think the only way to unseal the seal was probably to mediate the blood of the brave man's blood and use some kind of magic.Especially this time, we're resurrecting the one sealed in the woods.The closer we are, the easier it will be.Without boundaries, the rattlesnake might still be in trouble. "

Yeah... when I think about it, it makes me sick.

The rattling arson king retreated once, whether it was a lack of energy or something.Thanks to this, the forest remained without burning, and there was little damage to people.

But if anything was different... there might have been more damage.

"As for Ruggylos, I wish there'd been more damage.The greater the damage, the more feared the Demon King is.By defeating everyone's feared existence, Ruggylos will gain his place as a brave man. "

Besides, Mr. Ruggylos wanted more damage to the town and me... so I hate it. I hate it.

"... it's a selfish and short-circuited idea anyway.Let the Demon King be resurrected, let the resurrected Demon King attack the people, and appear as a hero after the damage grows, defeat the Demon King, and gain the status of a hero. "

Laocles also said so with a bitter face, and pulled his mouth together.He seems angry.... yeah. Maybe I'm angry too.

That's what made us a little uncomfortable.

"But was it good?... when the rattling arson king appeared, the people's minds would be different from those of the "demon king" and the "rattling arson king".The response may also be delayed.I wonder if I've taken everything from the hearts of the people to the necessary vigilance..... "

Princess Large said so worriedly...

"Oh, that's okay. Either way, you or the bird will have to work hard."

Claire said so with a cool face, trying to grab the end of Princess Large's words.

... eh? Me and the birds?

"It doesn't matter if he's the Demon King or the Kachikachi Arson.Only the Sword of the Brave works for him.It looks like Bird-san proved it to me..... "

Claire looks up at the sky as she says so.I think there's a bird, but I don't think it will fly to the courtyard of the royal castle on its own.

"... so anyway, it's either you or the bird that's going to fight.Those who can use the sword of the brave have no choice but to fight.At least it's not Ruggylos with a fake sword. "

"Uh-huh...."

And then again, they said, "Me or a bird"... you know, do I fight?If I had that sword, it would only be a brush, not a sword...

"... is that bird a hero?"

But it feels like there's something wrong with it!Look! Laocles is a little sifty!

... when I thought about it for a moment, I could easily imagine a bird sucking on a beautiful sword, reflecting magnificently and boldly, making its whole body even more round and bold.

No, but it suits me. But... um...

... yeah. Well, maybe it's okay.It's also called the Crispy Arson who can be beaten by a big fluffy bird...

"Well, then, there's not much we can do.Town defense. That's all.... Corn, is it true that the rattlesnake is trying to kill you?Then it's Corn you're after. [M]You just have to protect your place, Corgo. "

Yeah, the way forward is easy.

I'll do what I can.... that means strengthening Soleira's defenses.Let's do it thoroughly. Once again, the King of Firecrackers attacked, but he wouldn't let anyone get hurt, so if you don't mind, let the birds take him down.

And we have to protect the town from Mr. Ruggylos.He seemed to want Soleira to die.

... when I realized that, I was reminded that Ruggylos and Argent were arguing.

"... I wonder if Argent was opposed to the resurrection of the Kachikachi Arson."

Everyone was troubled when I spoke to them.Well, I don't understand the content of a dispute between another person and another person.

"... the stealing of the sword of the brave will include Argent's will.Their Summoners stole the Sword of the Brave.Which means that ultimately, the demon king was their goal. "

Yeah. Well, I'm pretty sure of that.

I'm sure Argent was involved with the spiders in the royal castle...

"But maybe Argent didn't think it was the right time... or maybe he didn't want to hurt you."

Huh?

But since Laocles kept doing that, I don't know.

I don't have much reason to think it's better not to hurt me...

"If you're a little smart, you'll see.I shouldn't turn you into an enemy.You're doing this all the time. "

... but Laocles said that with a slightly dazed face.

"I see. Instead, why are you trying to hang out with Soleira, who's been doing so much?I don't think there was much haste at the scene of the Arson seal.Instead, you should have watched your period properly.... "

"That's why we'll negotiate with you to bring the Demon King back to life peacefully.If you were to re-seal it to a place other than Soleila or something like that, it would have been to the advantage of Togo-kun, and maybe he was going to bring a "business meeting" like that with him. "

Lila and Claire say the same thing.Lyla drinks tea with a bitter smile, while Claire smiles gracefully and eats a bite of sweet buttercake.

I remembered Mr. Argent blurrily, thinking, well, an opportunity. [M]

When I first got Argent to hold the Opportunity, I thought that his Opportunity was quite solitary, or I was just trying to measure what was in Argent's interest, so I was a little bad at it.

Well, aside from Argent and the others, we decided to have a little tea, sweets and snacks and then go back to the woods.

... but...

I went back to the woods, slept slowly, and the next morning I was writing down boundaries and other enhancements.

"Lord Corn!"

Interlia came to my house to tear open the peaceful air of the afternoon.

"Interlia, what's going on?"

When I heard that, Interlia breathed and was stroked with her wings by her riding horse, Amama... and taught me.

"Well, the soldiers on the wall are stopping me now...."

... yeah.

"Argent is coming. He said," Let me see Lord Corgo. "

... well done, Argent. I see...

Um... is it possible that the "Opportunity" will begin?
