The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

... that's it.

We decided to speak with Mr. Agent again before the seal on the last seal of the King of Firecrackers was lifted.

We prepared ourselves, got everyone's approval, and then we set off for the royal castle.

As soon as I arrived at the Royal Castle, Princess Rage greeted me. So I tell them that I found a sealed jewel, and I ask them how the Agent is doing.

How's Agent doing?

"That's right, well, it's calm." They seem to be optimistic, so there are many people who suspect that they may be planning something. ”

While being led by Princess Rage, we're going to the dungeon again. We stepped on the cobblestone, and we went on... and...

I saw Agent in the back of the dungeon, over the iron lattice... and we were terrified.

"Ahhhh! Agent, are you all right with your hands?!"

Because, because! More than I expected! Agent-san's hands were in trouble!

The bandages are wrapped around you! Your hands, your forearms are all wrapped up!

"Ladies, Princess Raj, that's..."

"Yes, it was René-san's bite." It just looked cute, puffy, and chewed my forearm, but that one bite broke all the bones from Argent's forearm to his wrist... sorry, I just translated it honestly... "

Princess Rage said that, her eyes a little distant. "Ahhh..."

"... a dragon that hasn't turned into a dragon at all"

And when you look at us like that, Agent says something like that!

"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Wow!?"

"Ah, uh, today's a nice day," I said... "Today's a nice day"... "

I didn't have the courage to translate it as it is, so I wrote it down and told her. Renée leaned her head slightly and said, "Is there any weather in the jail? 'I asked. Um, yeah, that's right." I have it... "

... if you don't do that, Rene will start a fire!

René hated Mr. Agent as much as he did, but for the time being... we'll talk to him right away.

"Agent, I've found the sealed jewel."

When I first said that, Agent looked a little surprised.

"Well... that means all the seals have been lifted."

"No, before the seal was lifted, I secured the jewel of the seal." Today, the sealed jewel has the same dandelion as it does in Agent's head. ”

Agent narrowed her eyes slightly nervous. As he moves his head a little, his dick shakes.

"... so, what can I do for you?" You want to make a deal? "

"Huh. It's just a report." I thought it would be nice if you changed your mind.

Faye smiled and approached Agent with a challenging smile.

"The seal of the Tikkachi Fire King was lifted when the magic power was almost exhausted." I crushed the sesame seeds that came out of the firecracker. So, it is definitely someone who will finally defeat the resurrected Kakikashi Fire King, not Ruguros Zeil Agent....... Is there anything I can tell you that would change your mind? "

When Faye came up to her, Agent shook her head with a slightly reluctant look and said, "Oh, my God."

Nothing.

"Huh. You lost your bargaining materials, but you didn't say anything?" Are you ready to die? "

"Huh. If you want to kill me, just kill me." Well, even if you regret killing me, it's none of my business. "

That's all Agent said, trying to make fun of Faye. "You're trying to piss me off..."

"... Mr. Agent"

I thought it was impossible to find out, so I'll ask Mr. Argent. [M]

"I don't understand the" outside world "that the Tachikachi Fire King said." And then there's the "guy" that the Kachikachi arson king says.... do you know what Mr. Agent is? "

As soon as I heard it, Agent's expression changed a little. However, Agent quickly restored his expression to its original form.

Well, I don't know.

I see. You know that, right?

From the fragments of Agent's expression, I understand that he knows something. I'm sure Agent has heard of both the 'outside world' and 'him' somewhere. And if he had heard of it... that would be nothing more than hearing it directly from the Kakakashi Fire King.

Um, the outside world isn't about the night kingdom, is it?

"... I don't know."

"Because it looks like you know."

When I started asking questions, Mr. Agent looked a little disgusted and shook his head as if to say, "I can't talk."

"It's a good guess, but you should choose the time and the opponent." It's counterproductive when I say it out loud. "

Is that so?

"What is the 'outside world' in the first place?" You mean outside the country? Then you should ask the castle scholar. And what, 'him'? I don't think that word indicates a particular thing. It seems inefficient to explore who is defined by a relative change of meaning. "

I tried my best to ask, but Mr. Agent ran away with his words. Apparently, he doesn't feel like telling the truth.

"...... I heard from Lugulos, but..."

Faye suddenly zeroed in.

You really talk a lot when you want to hide something.

... and soon the Argent froze.

"...... Rugulos?"

And for a moment, I could see the anger in Mr. Agent's expression. It was like trying to decide in an instant how to move and how to proceed.

You captured Rugulos, too?

A carefully looking eye looks at us.

"No, I caught you, you came..."

Faye saw Mr. Argent's change, and certainly saw that there had been a change in him.

"... yeah. All right. Lila, you ready?"

Looking back at Lila, Faye asked, and Lila silently nodded and touched the brooch on her chest.

"... it's been a long time, Uncle"

And when Mr. Rugulos stood in front of the cell, Mr. Argent just looked at us with a steep expression.

"You betrayed me?"

"This is the dialogue."

Agent and Lugyrus are quietly opposite each other.

...... I thought you were similar to each other. I have the impression that Mr. Rugulos is more immature and Mr. Argent is more old, but there is also the impression that Mr. Rugulos has a flexible part and Mr. Argent has become stiff. Well, both of them seemed very similar to each other.

"Uncle, what are you up to?" Can't you tell me that for the sake of the prosperity of the Argents? Even after throwing me away, I'm sure you've already thrown away your plan to make the glory of the brave belong to the Argent family. "

Mr. Rugulos laughed mockingly and said so... and then made a steely expression.

"You are the first traitor to the Argent clan!" Do you understand me?! "

"What do you say?"

Agent gets up loose in the cell.

"I naturally think of the prosperity of the Argent family. Our dealings with the Royal Family and the Aristocratic Union are based on the independence of the Agent Realm and a steady supply of food for the next 50 years.”

"Nevertheless, I could have done better." Uncle, why did you and all the others beat you so badly? Why did you go out of your way to destroy the Hero Project? "

"Because of your lack of ability, I didn't deserve to operate as a brave person." That's why I just used it in the right place. "

Cold and sharp words are passing between the two, and even we who are outside the mosquito net are uncomfortable in the tingling air.

“I don't think we're really aiming for the prosperity of the Argent family. What the hell are you up to?"

"Well, there's no point in telling a traitor."

"I often say to habits that I didn't want to teach as one, even if I was waiting obediently."

"Um..."

... the conversation between the two seemed to have no end. Well, it didn't look like anything was going to come out of it. So I broke it between the two of them.

"...... Mr. Argent, you're working with the King of the Tickle Arson."

Mr. Rugulos was just looking at me a little surprised, and Mr. Agent kept his mouth shut. Maybe you're not going to tell me anything.

"Well then, if you ask the Kachikachi Fire King, he will come here again." Then, I want you to talk to me next time.... I want to know exactly what you want. "

When I say that, Mr. Agent looks weird. "I don't understand."

"... what do you mean you know?"

"Hmm... for now, I just need to know. I think it's best to think about what happens afterwards.”

I don't think Agent would understand my answer. His expression was still like that.

But... well, for the time being, that's it. If Agent doesn't talk to me anymore, I can't stay here.

Well then, I'll be back.

Saying hello, we decided to get out of the dungeon. At the end, looking back at Mr. Agent, he stared at the floor, wondering what he was doing.

"I knew it. He's not talking at all."

Faye lamented as she went up the stairs to get out of the dungeon.

"Oh, but I can see from the reaction to Mr. Togo's words that there is no such thing as' solving the last seal will accomplish the purpose of the Agent '." Isn't this a big harvest? "

On the other hand, Crore is amazing. Even if I fell, it wouldn't happen for free. In that short exchange, I read Agent's face and made such a guess. Certainly, when I told the story of the Kachikachi arson king, he did not panic, he did not rejoice, he seemed purely puzzled.

"Well, as Tsurugo said, it might be faster to ask the King of Firecrackers." I wonder if he's still more talkative than Agent. "

“Yeah, I feel like you're talking to me.”

Well... that's why I'm looking forward to the Kachikachi Fire King. That's what happens.

Next is the final seal. This might be the last time you talk to the Tickle King.

"... can I ask you one question?"

That's when it happened.

Walking towards the exit of the royal castle, Mr. Rugulos suddenly asked us in confusion.

"Well, what was that growing on top of my uncle's head..."

... ah, yeah.

I see. Is it the first time that Mr. Rugulos has seen a dandelion growing on a person's head?

"Eh, dick, but..."

"I see, ahhh, dick..."

Mr. Rugulos nodded and began to think about something...

"... no, wait. Why is my dick on top of my uncle's head?"

"Ah, I didn't seem to be convinced after all..."

"Isn't that nice, dick?" Agent doesn't like it, either. "

I'm going crazy with you guys!

Mr. Rugulos hugged his head. Why? That's good, dandelion.

I didn't say it was going to happen, so you're going crazy right away.

Faye laughed sharply as she slapped Mr. Rugulos' back. "Well, well..."

... yeah. Welcome to this side. "That's right..."
