So, while looking at the sketch, I started to separate the "letters" and "patterns".

Since the design is such that the characters blend into the pattern, extract the line that is presumed to be character-like and draw it.

... it's quite difficult to extract strange characters!

"No, what is it? Is this really a letter?" It's too complicated! "

”Hmm... if it's just a fraction, it's called kanji...”

What do you mean by 'kanji'?

"Ah, the explanation has uttered a troublesome word..." Hmm, but it's really like that.

Something like a twisted, twisted line that I've never seen before. Just by looking at the number of lines, I can't read Kanji and Hiragana, but... well, I can't read them at all. That's not true.

"For once, I'll have the Knights of Bones read it..."

"If it's monster letters, they can read it."

Also, if it's a fairy character, you can have the fairy read it and Angel translate it. If it's an ancient character, I can understand Faye, so this is not an ancient character...

Well, for the time being, let's hit it all over the place. Nothing starts without trying.

"... by the way, does this book want to be burned by the Tickle King?"

And suddenly, I'm concerned, I'm going to try to say it out loud.

"Ah, it's about Princess Rage's dream."

Yes. Yes. The cause of Princess Raj's sleeping quarters.

"What are you talking about? Tell me."

"Huh? Well, Princess Raju had a dream that many books would be burned by the Kachikachi Fire King."

Huh.

I talked to Mr. Rugulos this morning, who was in Lyla's brooch and didn't know what was going on around here, and he seemed interested.

"If it was a dream of a hero's bloodline, it might really be a prediction dream." It was easy to find out. You can actually show this book to the demon king. "

... well, let's see if Princess Rage is the bloodline of a hero. It is very difficult to talk to Mr. Rugulos about it.

But, well, showing this book to the Tickle King... no, no, no, no, no!

"And if it burns, it's going to be tough!"

Yes! Yes! I think he's going to burn everything he wants to burn! So don't show me anything you don't want burned!

... so if we were to think about what to do...

Then duplicate it. Can you do it?

Mr. Rugulos said that with a dazed look on his face.... ah, yeah. That's right.

Speaking of which, did I mention that something drawn by Mr. Rugulos comes out?

"What are you talking about, growing strange flowers on people's heads?"

Oh, that's right, that's right. Well, um, I guess it was a little rash, okay? I was already familiar with Mr. Rugulos as a forest companion. I don't know, there's a bit of a lila in here, isn't there? Somewhere in Sybia. In a good sense, it is a place where there is no hesitation.

“Maybe I shouldn't have been the one with the illustrations on the cover of the book. It's easier to draw."

"Ahh, well, except for the golden foil part, it's just white."

Then, while being watched by Faye and Mr. Lugulos, I made a copy of the book because it was a corner. Pong, the book came out and I made a duplicate. Well, that's the usual.

"... no matter how many times I've seen it, it's strange." How does it work at all? "

I don't know. I don't know.

Mr. Rugulos looks at my magic with a mysterious look, but I'm also mysterious. I just gave up and was convinced that it was something like this, and the mystery hasn't been solved yet.

Can you duplicate the contents of the book?

”Hmmm... that doesn't mean I can't check it properly.”

And I don't know if the book I painted is really the same as the original book, so... I can't help but compare the original and the duplicate at the same time.

... well, the contents are the same. The letters are all the same. Wow, even though I just drew the cover of the book, I can duplicate the contents. Thinking again, how does my magic work...?

"... nh?"

In this way, I turned from the first page to half, and Faye turned to the last page at the same time to check... Finally, Faye suddenly uttered a frantic voice.

"Hey, hey, hey, this. Here! Look at this!"

Encouraged by Faye's panicked appearance, Mr. Rugulos and I saw what Faye was pointing at.

"...... even though it's not a duplicate, there's one in the original."

Faye wrapped the book around her.... the back cover, the back side. There's something written there, something small.

... the autograph.

I immediately felt that way. [M]

"... can you read it?"

I stared at Faye's signature with a misguided feeling.

... well, I can't read. The letters are twisted and I can't read at all. Well, that's what signing is all about...? "

Still, I stare at the letter without giving up. However, when I look at it, my head feels like it's getting a headache... hmm, I can't stare too long.

Therefore, I decided to look at the slightly wider area including around the sign blurry. If I keep an eye on the character-like part, my head will get painful... so I think it's some kind of design, not a letter. As a result, the colour came into my eyes before the shape.

... and I notice it. This signature is in blue-black ink. So, the thickness of the line is roughly constant. I didn't draw it with a fountain pen, quill, or a pen.

I think I wrote it with a blue-black gel ink ballpoint pen. That's the way it is.

... and suddenly, there was a feeling that something could play in my brain.

And remember.

This colored ink ballpoint pen was often used by the teacher.

"...... Togo? Did you read it?"

Faye looks at me with anxiety, apparently suspicious of me not saying anything. With Faye's face out of sight, I'm just looking at the sign.

"... I can't read the letters."

The heartbeat is very fast. With the feeling of blood gathered in my head, hopes gushing up and unfamiliar fears eroded me.

"But, it looks familiar with ink..."

"What, what?" Ink? Why do you remember such things? "

"The thickness is constant and it looks like a gel ink ballpoint pen. And this blue-black. It looks familiar to me."

I'm going to make sure of it, and I'm going to trace the sign with my finger... I think.

If you look closely, the beginning of the line is a bit of an eloquent way to get in. The ink accumulated at the place where the fastening part was tightened, and the colour became dark.

I've seen these lines gather over and over again.

"...... I think this is the signature of the doctor"

"Sensei?"

Yeah.

I kept my hopes or fear at bay and spoke up.

"This is the signature of Unnen."

Guru.

The sign twisted, as if it were a living thing. No, the twisted sign is back.

While we were amazed, the sign was moving, and the line that was slightly entangled was moving... and then it returned to the right shape.

... the correctly shaped letters were clearly lined up there in a familiar form.

Unnoticed Protection .

It's the teacher's name.
