Episode 18: A hunch of raw color

Then we'll go back to the woods.

Welcome back ~

"Ah. Welcome back... you've been pretty damaged, Lian."

"Hmm... I wonder why.Somehow, Pegasus and the others have been wanting to do this lately. "

Lian was covered in feathers.Pegasus feathers are stuck to my hair and clothes.Looks fluffy.Let's draw. Let's draw.

"... so, Carnelia, have you enjoyed it?"

And even though it was covered in feathers, Lian seemed to be worried about Carnelia-chan.Carnelia nodded with a smile as she called out to Carnelia, who had descended with her.

"Yes! It was fun!" Once, the amber pond was burnt... but the cane fixed it!Besides, I was able to say hello to the strange chicken who had been watching us for a long time! "

Carnelia laughs as she explains something that may not be conveyed right now.... well, with just this smile, ”It was fun!'I wonder if that's okay, because it's fully conveyed.

Burned down? Does that mean you've come back to life?

I've come back to life.

I felt a little sorry, but for the time being, I explained the current situation to Lian and Angel.They're part of the woods, so I think we should let them know.

"Hmm... so, what do we do next?"

To find out, Faye is now in Faye's study.

"I see. So, Brother Fay, are you there?"

After explaining everything, Lian let out a convincing voice.

That's right. Faye's just doing some research for the next Kikaku-kyō.Faye, I've already looked into various seals, but based on what I found out this time, I wanted to look into them more deeply...

Faye said, "Give me two days."On the other hand, can we do it in two days?I think so. You must be tired from the trip. Even Faye was healed by Phoenix after she got burned. I don't think she should go too far... no, but when I think about the seal, I know that it's better to hurry, but I can't say anything.

"Oh, my God, Brother Fay."

Yeah.

Well, for the time being... we've been relying on Faye's magic knowledge all these years, so I'm sorry about that.

"I wish I could return something for that..."

For the time being, I went to bed that day.I slept well. When I woke up at night, it was past noon.I slept really well...

As I walked out of the house, thinking I'd slept through it, I ran into Laocles, who seemed to be asking about my house.

Onee-hoo!

"... I thought I was going to sleep for about two days."

... apparently, Lao Cres was expecting me to run out of magic power.No, when the magic power runs out on the stone... no, when I think about it, I'm changing the depth of the pond, chaining it out, and casting out the centipede, and I'm drawing out all the giant amber rustle of the amber pond...Yeah. Well, I'm growing up, too.

How are you feeling?

"I wasn't so hurt in the first place."Laocles, are you okay? "

Well, it hurts a little bit.

My body is fine, I'm fine.But Laocres seems to have a bit of an after-effect.Even now, I still stroke my neck with a little restlessness.

”... but that's all the burns I've got, so the power of Phoenix's tears is incredible after all”

Yeah.

Laocles' burns were terrible.That's why I'm glad it healed.... it's faster to heal with the help of Phoenix, Phoenix, and Tsubaki than to heal with my drawings, so I'll ask the birds to recover in an emergency.However, there seems to be no sequelae for me to draw and cure, and... I might need to use it differently.

I don't know if it's lunch or breakfast... I go to Faye's house after eating the biting rice.It's about Faye, so I feel like I'm working too hard.

I'll do it.

When I arrived at Faye's house, the guardsman with the big face walked through me without asking me anything and greeted them as they entered the doorway.

I also greeted the maids who seemed to be cleaning in the entrance hall, and for some reason I got a candy from the maids. I took it to the library first.

When you enter the library, the scent of paper and ink that is unique to the room with lots of books spreads.The book is basically handwritten because the copier is not yet so popular in this world.The scent of that ink feels kind of nostalgic to me.

I peered into the bookshelf while sniffing somehow to calm the smell... I was able to find a few extracted parts of the book, but I couldn't find Faye.

So... I'll take this book with me in my room.

So I went to Fay's room.

Faye, are you there?

... I tried knocking on the door, but I didn't hear back.However, there are signs of creatures beyond the door... uh, I'm sorry to bother you.

"Grandpa, I'm so sorry..."

I gently opened the mahogany door and entered Fay's room, somehow hiding my voice.

The room has a soft scarlet carpet.Thanks to it, the footsteps will go away, even if I'm not so concerned."I'll just go gently through Faye's room..."

"...... I'm sleeping in an incredible position"

I found Faye sleeping in an awesome position.Well, on the sofa, I managed to fit in between the stacked books, and it looked cramped.Why are you sleeping in this outfit, Faye?... well, I guess I'm just so tired.

I thought it would be better to let it go to bed like this, but when I let it go to bed, I decided to wake it up because I thought it was definitely the one whose body became stiff and painful when I woke up next time.

"Faye"

... but Faye won't wake up when I call her.Looks like he's falling asleep pretty deep.

Faye, if you're sleeping in this place, your body will hurt

I tried to shake it a bit, but Faye couldn't wake up just by moaning "nnh".Goron is bumping into the back of the sofa as he tries to turn over.I was trying to change my posture, but I couldn't do it because of the book tower.

I didn't think this was going to work at last, so... after a while, my heart started to swell with mischief inside me...

I'll take out the tube fox. [M]

And then I said to Tube Fox.

'You can tickle Faye if you like.'

”Ah... damn it, I still feel itchy”

"I'm glad I woke up for now."

So Faye woke up.... I mean, at first, even if the pipe fox tickled as much as I could, it was a little creepy, but after I joined the fight and worked hard with one person and one animal, Faye got up. Thank goodness.

”I'm going to wake you up in a strange way... and I'm going to pay you back someday”

I'm looking forward to it.

Faye pounds me so hard that I laughed and gave it back.It is worse to sleep in a strange place.

Okay. I thought Faye should get back to bed, but as far as Faye's concerned, she's still trying to stay awake.

No, I'm tired of sleeping in such an impossible position on the sofa, so I think it's better to go to bed... well, I'll keep my best friend's decision out of my mouth.

So I cleaned up the book tower and sat alongside Faye on the sofa.Draw a cup of tea and let Faye take a break.

"No, whether you look it up or not, your head is stiff, but come on..."

When Faye said that, she drank the tea all at once, gurgled her body to the back of the sofa, and hooked her fingers to the handles of the empty tea cups and plucked them... I'm tired.

I can't deal with Faye's fatigue... but I think I'll be the one listening to Faye instead.

"I wonder how to do something about that seal..."

... the clouds are moving quickly, but go on. Please.

That jewel contains the magic power of the Tickle King.

Yeah.

For now, Faye starts talking to me as a listener.The teacher did a good job, but it seems that something is often solved just by someone playing the listening role, so he is happy to stick to the listening role.

"So when I broke that jewel, I had two predictions. One was that magic would disappear because the jewel was damaged."The other one was predicting that all the magic would come out because the gemstone was cracked.... well, it was the latter one. "

Yeah.

"In other words, the jewelry is really just a container."The vessel. The container. It's just there to store and seal the magic power... if you say so, I might say that the magic power of the Fire King has a shape. "

... the water floats in my head.

Water. Yes. You can't grab it if it's flowing all over the place, and it's not in shape, but as soon as it enters the vessel, you can even carry it.Somehow, the image of the magic power of the Tickle King in my head is just like that.

"I put it in a jewel and attached the seal ring to the magic power of the arson king and sealed it with it."That means, if the seal ring doesn't come off, the seal won't come off, so I'll devise a way to make sure the seal ring doesn't come off... no, that's not realistic either. "

Yeah. Even if Faye does his best to contain it, it won't work, so I don't think it's going to be easy to process it so that it doesn't come off the wheel.If you tie it with a metal wire, I think the metal wire will be cut a thousand times and it won't work.

"After all, it's good to do something about the jewelry, but even if I do something about it, I still can't think of anything!"

It's a journey.

... it seems that Faye is finally stuck.

"Well, if the jewel is a vessel that holds the magic power of the Tickle King, then... if you reduce that vessel, it won't reduce its magic power?"

It's like I'm out of my specialty, but for now, I'll tell you what I came up with.Not that my amateur opinion could be of any use.

No, if you do that, where do you think the overflowing magical power will go?

”... you can't just disappear, can you?”

I see. Maybe we'll go back to the Katakana.

I see. It's difficult. "Um..."

Well then, what do you mean by sucking up magic power?

"I don't know how to do that without unsealing it..."

Is it difficult to unseal the seal once and re-seal it...?

"There's no doubt that there will be a lot of damage."

In that case, the jewel itself would be turned into an object with low magic power.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

Hmmm... my amateur ideas are gone too. I can't do this anymore!

"... no, it might change."

However, Faye said that... and shook my hand.

You're here!

Huh?

"Conveniently, there is someone who can draw anything and let it out!"If only you had that power to turn the king back into a human even if he became a monster... I might be able to cum! "

... eh? Oh, I see. If I paint like that, can I...?No, no, no, but...

"Is it okay if I do such a rough thing...?"

I thought that magic would be a big deal if you tricked it badly, but is that okay?

"Well, in the worst case scenario, it will be the same as this time."However, rather than just cracking the gems, it would be better for the gems to become a separate substance for each of the magical powers of the firecracker king sealed inside! "

Oh, is that what it is?Um... well, Faye is probably more familiar with magic than I am, and I trust her.

"Well... I don't think I can do it anymore.But, uh... what do you want me to re-draw?Or what? "

In the meantime, I'm glad that Faye is doing well, but the problem is that we're going to have to go further.

If I were to repaint the sealed jewels, what would I have to repaint them for?

"That's right..."

Faye looked at me with a difficult face...... and said with a brightened expression.

"Ah, I have an idea! The cotton wool of a dick!"Let's make it dandelion wool! "

... is that what you say when you look at people's faces? That's it!
