"... my child, my child..."

And we're sitting on a bench in the square, resting around the fried sweets one by one.

The sweets are like molasses on a donut, which is quite delicious... but more than that, I'm worried about Laocres, who looks a little pale.

"Um, I'm sorry, you've made a weird mistake... and made me feel uncomfortable"

When I apologized, Laocres looked at me like he was coming back to me, and then he looked a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry about it. I'm not feeling uncomfortable."

"That's right? If only Lao Cres had said so..."

Well, I guess you're feeling a strange sense of joy.

When I was worried, Crore stepped forward with a giggle.

"... what is this strange joy?" I don't feel it, I don't feel it. I just think it's an honor. "

"Huh. I'm glad. I'm glad you think I'm your father, you!"

Laughing, Crore snapped at the sweets. It seems that each and every movement of your lips is really shiny and amazing. After all, this person is suitable for models. I want to draw every day. I want to draw every second. Let's draw. Let's draw.

"... but I wonder if I've seen your mother, too."

"I thought that Crore-san was more like a sister than a mother..."

"Well, I was in the mood for that, too... but Togo-kun is a child who looks younger than his age, and I don't think it would be strange if I had a child about that age."...... I don't like the passage of time. "

Wait a minute. I think I just heard something I have to abandon. Do I look younger than my age!? Really!? Really? Well, I'm not tall enough! It's not very masculine! It doesn't even look grown-up! Ugh, I'm sorry... I'm sorry, but I can't help it...

"... no, you look like a child, too."

"Really?... Yeah, well, I guess so. Certainly, I have the feeling that I'm also like your mother....."

With me in between, Crore and Lao Cres are talking about it. I'm a little embarrassed to be caught between them!

My child's rhetoric (rather than my 'child's rhetoric'?) However, after that, we took the inn and went shopping near it.

Before the store ended up, it was a little rush shopping, but it was a satisfying shopping experience. Buy clothes for Mr. Crore's spring products, or buy more tea leaves that are about to disappear.

What was interesting was that Lao Cres also bought spring clothes. Laocles said, "I don't need it," but Crore said, "Please wear something new," and he looked good on Laocles. As a result, Lao Cres wore two shirts and was to wear new ones. It was bespoke, as it should be. Because it is a ready-made product and it does not suit the body of Lao Cres!

At the same time, I also bought painting materials. Well, paintbrush. Because paintbrushing is one of the things that is not very good at drawing and putting it out on its own... it is a painting material and a reference material.

Then, as soon as you're done shopping, head to Crore's home... In other words, the shop of the "temporary appearance to endure the world". I'm going into the bar.

"Welcome... oh! It's not Karen!" How are you!? "

Immediately after entering the store, the waitress shone and cheered. As a result, some people in the store turned around and looked at Mr. Crore. Oh, what a voice of admiration.

"Yes. I'm very well. Yes, this is a souvenir. Eat from the people in this shop."

While secretly saying, "I'll take it to the other side", Croa handed the paper bag from the fairy confectionery store to the waitress. The waitress looked inside the paper bag, said with joy, and rumbled into the back of the store. Looks like they're cutting us apart.

... by the way, this time, the paper bag contains a hole of moonlight mousse cake. I'm also a favorite cake, so I'd love for you to taste it.

Well, then we'll order at the bar and have dinner a little early.

I ordered and ate salted pork, potato au gratin, fish fried in tomato sauce, salads that I could eat with a pin and a bite, and thinly sliced meat that had been carefully baked.

I put bread and juice in them. [M] Laocles has bread and liquor. Crores drinks without bread.

It's unusual for Lao Cres to drink in a place like this.

Is that so?

“Yes, most people don't drink 'it interferes with their work'.”

By the way, when Lao Cres drinks alcohol, she often drinks it in a large vessel like a jock, but now she drinks it with a good glass of wine to match Crores and the shop. This is also unusual.

"...... it's a shame that Crore is drinking and I'm not drinking it"

"Oh, my God."

"Besides, it's his' home '." That's right, nothing bad will happen. "

When Laocles said that, he tilted the glass of alcohol like a shadow and poured the contents into the back of his throat. Crore who was watching that... giggled.

"Oh, I'm in a complicated mood, like a happy worry." You can't trust us that easily, can you? "

Not anymore.

Laocles looks a little reluctant, but Crore looks a little happy and a little embarrassed. It's an unusual face. I want to draw it. Drawn. Satisfied.

”Fufufu, yeah. Now I might scratch your neck”

"If you can do it, try it."

"I won't do it." It's going to break my neck at the same time as I'm scratching my neck. "

While somehow enjoying a little noisy conversation, Crore pours wine into Lao Cres' empty glasses. The liquor has a clear pale pink gold hue. Gorgeous and beautiful. Perfect for Crores. It looks surprisingly good on Lao Cres. That's the way it is.

And when I look at Lao Cres with Crore talking about a glass of alcohol in one hand, I feel a bit lonely and regretful.

"I want to be able to drink alcohol, too."

So, suddenly, I spit it out... and Crore and Lao Cres look at each other and laugh at each other.

"Oh, no, not yet." After the unuki-sensei's forgiveness, right? "

"I'm looking forward to that day too, but let me relax and wait." It's boring to grow up too soon. "

Moreover, since both of you reach out to my head and start stroking it, I can't help but feel restless! Don't stroke it in the shop! I care about people's eyes!

"Yes, please. It's a dessert."

Then, a little while later, dessert was brought to our table. It's a cake with lots of alcoholic syrup, a specialty of the restaurant. Savaran, that's what it is.

"Boy, this way." I keep my alcohol to a minimum. "

"... thank you very much"

And I was transported something special. Savarin with lots of cream and understated liquor.... no, it's okay. I don't care!

"Hey, give me a bite."

”... it's just a bite”

However, I am a little frustrated, so I decided to ask you to take a bite of the Laocles. After stretching the fork, he gently leaned on me and gave me a bite of the edge.

When I carry a cake stained with plenty of syrup in my mouth, it smells fluffy and good, and it feels like alcohol that will be melted afterwards. The inside of my mouth became hot and tingling, the sweetness of the syrup and the bitterness of the alcohol spread, and I swallowed it deep inside my throat... yeah. I don't hate this kind of thing.

"I don't hate this taste." It smells nice... but it's going to be a little dirty. "

I see.

Laocles laughed grinningly as he returned the cake plate to himself. It seems that the second mouth won't give it to me. No, it's fine. If I ate any more boulders, I would get drunk.

In the meantime, I took a sip of my cake to thank for it. [M] Laocles had the impression that it was' sweet... '. I also split up with Crore who seemed to be concerned, and said, "Oh, that's a cute taste!'.... is it sweet and cute? I see.

"By the way, are you going to Father's today?"

“Yeah, let me show you a little face.”

Then the waitress and Crore have such a conversation. Well, it seems that Crore's "father" is also a busy person, so I don't plan to stay too long. That's why I choose to visit at night when I can't stay very long.

"Oh my God, I've been looking forward to seeing you guys lately, Father." Luster said you were coming. "

... but I'm kind of glad you're looking forward to it. He's a little scared, though. But I think it's much more pleasant to be waiting for pleasure than to be hated.

Anyway, Karen, did you bring Luster and Yoli back?

What a thought, and I was told a terrible thing!

"Fufu, that's not true."

"Yeah, I thought so."

But the waitress also seems to know the situation somehow... Giggling with Crore is over. It's a conversation between adult women.

"...... Did Luster say something?"

And when Laocles asked the waitress, the waitress taught me.

"No? It just came out of his mouth that" Karen and the others are coming over again. "I wonder if it's at least enough to have a conversation."

Well, we've been having conversations for a long time. No, Luster seemed to be avoiding Crore one way or the other. But I don't avoid it unnaturally, I don't talk to the public, and I can't eat snacks at the fairy cafe unless I order them.

"... heh? Huh, maybe your knight burnt it with a hurry?"

"Say it stupidly."

Laocles looked extremely bitter at the waitress....... I guess you remember the duel before the Spiritual Front match.

"Well, Karen, after all, what does this knight have to do with anything?"

"It's just that the employer is the same."

Fufufu, yeah, well, I wonder if there's a relationship between Turbo-kun's escort and model and Turbo-kun's model and detective.

The waitress said, "It's boring! 'And I was skipping the booing, but Crore seemed to be having a lot of fun, and Lao Cres was looking away with an awkwardly bitter face. Well, somehow... it was a scene that made me want to draw a little, so I decided to publish a sketchbook for now. I want to draw, I want to draw.

Then we pretend to go to the toilet at the back of the bar, and go straight into the aisle behind the bar, which is off-limits to all but the people involved.

Go ahead, move the shelf around like a liquor vault, and go ahead of the door behind it.

”I'm kind of excited about these hidden doors”

I see.

Yeah. Let's build a castle in the fairy park with a lot of hidden doors and tricks like this.

"... I've already heard that the Great Library is becoming like that."

Ah, that's right.

Yes, the fairies were very busy building the library. I've made a lot of hidden passages and hidden rooms... maybe even more so now. Ugh. No, but I feel like there might be an attraction like a teasing mansion that enjoys hiding passages and tricks. I think I'll make it separately.

Then, a short walk down the underpass and up the stairs, you'll arrive at Crore's home. I'm sorry to bother you.

"Oh, Karen! Welcome!"

"It's been a long time. Yes, a souvenir."

Crore was immediately welcomed, and the paper bag that Crore had received and offered from Laocles was received with great cheer. All the beautiful women here seem to like the sweets from the Fairy Western. I'm glad to hear that.

So, are you a souvenir? Thank you.

Huh?

I thought it was, and suddenly I was pulled. And with the pulled momentum, it's inside the woman's chest.... wow, wow!

"Hey, no. Because you're not a souvenir."

Uhhhhhhh

Ms. Crore reached out to me with a bitter smile, and I was finally able to get out of the woman. "Ah, I was restless...!"

However, even after being rescued by Crore, I've been messed up by women for a while. For some reason, they want to hug me, they want to stroke me! Stop it, stop it, don't calm down!

I had no choice but to ask Laocles for help. Once it was in Laocles' arms, the women would no longer come to stroke me. But instead, he said, "It's cute! I was told something I didn't quite understand." "I see, from these people, Lao Cres is cute..."

"So, did your father ask you to come today?"

Well, spontaneously, though.

Then, Mr. Crore, I ask you some strange questions and answer them with my neck tilted. "I don't think there's much to come, but..."

"... what happened?"

That's when Crore heard back with a bit of tension.

"Are you back yet?"

... there was [Father] on the spot. The women who had reached out to me before also corrected their residence, and we also faced [Father] in a proper posture.

And then...

"... I wonder if it's a heavenly formula."

For some reason, [Father] came to me, not Mr. Crore...

"Mr. Tougo Wesora, can you do me a favor?"

... maybe that's not the one who ordered the painting?
