The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

The country at night is as quiet as ever.

"For once, it's noon..."

However, the atmosphere is still different from before.It is daylight in the country of the night.Since the demon king, who covered the sky completely, disappeared, the morning came to the country at night, the day came, the evening came, and the evening dawned...... the normal cycle was back.

However, the night sky of the country somehow looks faded.I can still see the blue sky now, but I can see the gray one.

The country of the night has become vibrant.

However, Rene writes it happily and shows it to me.Apparently, even this one has become quite colourful.

... which means that if you take people from the country of the night into the world of the day, your eyes will be hurt by the vibrancy of the colors.

"The shades of the country at night are so sweet."

Lila narrows her eyes a little and looks at the low saturation of the country at night.

I don't hate the atmosphere of these shades.

"Yeah. I like it too."

Well, being vibrant is not necessarily a beauty.Like the country at night, the scenery with low saturation and calm shades is also very good.It feels a little old-fashioned or nostalgic.I like that kind of thing, right?

Then we took off. [M] Faye is the Spirit of Fire.Lila is a bird. I decided to fly in each vehicle... "

Can you fly too?

When I thought I was about to exit the phoenix, Rene seemed excited and asked.Rene was already trembling with dragon wings growing on her back.

... the first time I saw Renée becoming a dragon, she was shy or hated to be seen.Maybe Rene didn't like that his wings and tail were growing and his hands were turning into dragons.But I don't know what to do now.

While Rene was a little wiggly, she was slowly shaking her delicate feathers made of thin silk and wobbling her tail covered in a dark starry scales.

And you're looking at me with hopeful eyes.

... ah. It's a journey.

Sometimes I decide to fly with my own wings.

There was a useful feather in the corner, so maybe I could fly on my own instead of relying on the phoenix.Just as well, Rene was going to fly on her own.

... so I took out my wings and decided to fly and move.Since the moment I put out my wings, Renée has been looking at me with a nervous expression, so she feels a little restless.Even while flying side by side, he often looks at me and mutters, "It's so awesome...", so I'm still not calm!

But... while flying side by side, Renée seemed so happy that she decided to think it was okay.Maybe Rene didn't have a dragon of the same age, and she didn't have anyone to fly with... well, I could put up with being stared at a bit and not feeling at ease.

Then we went to the castle of the Night."I also greeted the Dragon King, and Rene showed me..."

"... it's so beautiful"

It was a treasure trove.

Everything in a row is an amazing treasure.

A gemstone with a large grain that seems to have trapped the night away.Silver wire work as delicate as lace.A mysterious flower that shines crystal-clear.Butterfly feathers glowing blurry. A knife with a deep blue blade.

Finely carved ebony jewelry box.A silk cloth with a woven pattern and a starry sky.A pot of baked goods with a warm light red color.It's like an hourglass where star debris flows upwards...

It's like you're going to see it all by yourself.Finally, looking at the vault with a purpose in mind, Renée peeks into my face and laughs.

Awesome?

"Yeah. It's so beautiful!"

When I answered, Rene nodded happily.I know how René feels. It is a pleasure to see the same thing and to think that it is beautiful.

This is what sucks in magic power.

And Rene brought a black chunk from the corner of the vault.... looks a bit like the Demon King.It's black and glossy, but it's just black.

I thought maybe it was just a fuzzy touch, and I poked it...

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

... all at once, my strength is gone!And don't fumble! It's hard!

"Geez!?!" Whoa, whoa, whoa! "

Rene hurriedly pulled the black lump away from me.By the way, Rene has a black lump over her cloth and is wearing gloves.Sheng Jiao, if you try to touch it without this kind of equipment, you'll take your magic power with you...

Is this the material of that tower?

Yes, I'm working on it and using it as building material for that tower.

Sheng Jing.... well, I guess I'm using it by processing it and diluting the effect a little bit, but I think it's a tower made of this...I think that Renée, who was trapped there, must have been cold and hard because she was relieved of her strength.

"Huh. Sheng Cheng, now that the cane is going to" hehe ", you're going to suck the magic power with a lot of momentum, right?"

Faye gazed at the black mass while never touching it, and said, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, who

"...... With this, you can create a paint that sucks up the magic power from the Tickle King."

"Even if I don't do that, I think it's enough to attach this directly to the sealed jewel"

"... you're almost ready!"

Yeah. So, for the time being, if there's this black chunk, okay.This will change a lot... I guess. Maybe.

Where can I get this black mass?

So I asked Rene right away.... and then...

It can be picked from the area where the demon king invaded the most intensely.The area still absorbs magic, so it's off-limits. ”

And Rene answered me, and she showed me the map that was in the vault, and she pointed to one place, and said, This is it.... uh, maybe less than a day from here.

"All right. Let's go and see what we can do."

Yeah.

Well, if there's a lot of clumps like this out there, I'd love to get it."It seems like it would be a good countermeasure against the arson king, but most of all..."

"... hey, Tougo. You." Don't you think I'll paint this black guy? "

"Huh? Well, well..."

This blackness! I think if I paint it, I can make a very black black one!If you do that, you'll be able to paint some very dark pictures, and you'll be able to paint some very contrasting pictures! I want to try!

"... you really are... no, it's nothing"

Lila looks like she has a headache, but I think she would like to try it if she gets a "very black paint".Yeah. Definitely. That's the kind of creature we are. I know. I know.

So I wanted to leave right away... but apparently it's not going to work either.

Anyway, René said, "It's not until midnight that this can be picked.But if I leave now, I think I will arrive around dawn. "So... I decided to spend about half a day in the castle before leaving.

Then, Rene jumped around quickly... and we decided to have dinner with the Dragon King.

Looks like the Dragon King wanted to talk to us slowly.I used to say to René, "You can go to the kingdom of noon!I'd love to go, too!'It seems that you're spilling a foolishness... uh, uh, we can talk about it.

There was a demon king besides the night kingdom.

The Dragon King wrote that between meals and showed it to me.Looks like she's talking to Rene.

"Yes. I don't know how the seal works, so I don't know what to do."For the time being, it's proceeding in a way that sucks the magic power away from the sealed gemstone. ”

Faye smiled bitterly as she wrote it back.The Dragon King nodded loosely at Faye's face...

"If that's the case, the materials in this country will be just right.After all, it is a country that gathers creatures that could not live without taking their magic power, and substances that were trying to recover even a little magic power.If you have any good materials, you can take them with you. "

That's what fat people say, so we appreciate it. [M]

"Nevertheless... I'm not going to unseal it and deal with it, but I'm going to deal with it sealed."Certainly, if the substance is sealed in a certain way, some interference will be possible.If you want to minimize the damage, I think it is a very good solution. "

The Dragon King wrote that and praised Faye.Faye looks happy. I'm glad to be recognized. I know.

Maybe the question is how to use the magic power after sucking it up.

... but if the Dragon King's story continues like that, we'll be stuck.

How do the creatures and substances that absorb magic power consume it in the Night Land?

"I was consuming it by living.... or to enlarge your body, or to increase your companionship.Well, I suppose we could say that they were used for life activities.Or maybe some of you are born sucking on magic from around you...... ”

Sheng Jie. In a country where the magic power of light was low and even life support was dangerous, magic power was sucked from the surroundings to survive, and magic power was sucked in and born...

... it sucks in magic and comes into being?

"Ah. Could it be!"

Apparently, Faye also noticed, and when she thought she had turned towards me, she started talking.

"That girl in the amber pond!"It was made of water, rude! "

Don't say that.It was rude, though.

"He... the water in the pond sucked magic out of the sealed jewel, and it was a monster that grew up!"

... the journey!

Certainly, the sealed jewels were immersed in water, so is that possible?That girl wouldn't be surprised if her original size was a driver's size.

That means... "

"... that seal, to a certain extent, was deprived of magic power, so that's a hypothesis."

"Yeah..."

... even if a certain amount of magic power was sucked away, it was the Tickle King.

Hmm... will the magic absorption method work?

Nevertheless, you're a beautiful feather.

If I was bothered, the Dragon King would write it that way and laugh.

"It's a shape like no other in this country.Delicate and beautiful. If I had seen it in the light of the day, I would have seen it differently. "

... when I see it with my slightly envious eyes, I feel restless.What, the people of the night kingdom love my wings so much?"I thought Rene liked my feathers so much..."

"I know how Rene feels.When I went out to the land of noon the other day, I said, "The wings of the cane have become more and more beautiful," and it was exciting.

Since the Dragon King is showing me his sketchbook, I don't know what kind of face to make, and Rene is embarrassed about Rene and hides her face with her wings...

Well... let's just say I'm glad you like your feathers.

Then the next day.

We fly with René's guidance, aiming for a place where we can pick up the black chunks of the example.

"I still feel dark over here."

... the demon king's invasion was fierce ahead of him.In other words, it was a land that was devoured by the magic of light.Therefore, the sky is somehow dark, and even if you look at the ground, there are few flora and fauna, or even if there are flora and fauna, it has a very unusual shape.

It's an area that lacks the magic power of light, I'm sure.

"This is what Rene is fixing." It looks pretty tough. "

It would take a lot of effort and time to regain the magic power of the once lost light and fill the earth.And that's Rene's job.

"... hey, René. I'll help you."If anything happens, just let me know. "

I have to write it down, but there may still be something to write about, so I will shake René's hand while I fly next to her.Then Rene gladly sneaks around... well, I don't think it conveyed any meaning, but maybe it conveyed a bit...

Fly, fly, once along the way, between lunch breaks and snack breaks... and in the evening.

Tongue! Tongue!

The direction René was pointing... it was even darker and blacker, and I couldn't feel the shards of light.

It was just black and there was such a place that I didn't really understand the outline of the thing.

... apparently, it absorbs a lot of magic.
