The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

One day.

As I watched the birds bathing in the forest fountain, the rose-colored birds came from the sky, squeaking.

When I thought, "Oh," the bird landed in front of me, twitching and squeaking, its legs gently came out. There was something like a letter grabbed by my leg, so I took it.

You're Mr. Roseth's Summon Monster, aren't you?

Indeed, this beautiful bird, like a rose flower, belongs to Mr. Rose. And it was checked, and the birds lifted up their breasts majestically, saying, As it is.

I wonder what Mr. Rose wrote to me. "When the Red Gardes contact me, Faye will generally come to me..."

Strangely, I opened the letter.

Faye's a little tough. I would definitely like you to come. ”

Yes, it was written.

Mr. Roses! Mr. Roses!

"Oh, Mr. Togo! Thank you for coming."

Then I flew to the Red Gard family in a hurry, and Mr. Roses, who was wandering around in the courtyard, glistened.

Um, Faye, what's the matter?

"Yeah. Well, you'd better see it for yourself. Come on."

Mr. Roses is taking me... not indoors. Deep in the courtyard, yeah...

There was a large nest made of sheets, mosses, petals and blankets, and a figure of Faye that was rounded inside. And Faye had horns on her head. I had a feather on my back. "From the ass to the tail..."

... oh, is that a dragon's nest?

"Um...... Faye?"

I'm going to give it a try. Then Faye silently stared at me and leaned her neck.... oh.

"Um, Rosés-san. Could Faye be..."

"It's obvious, Mr. Tuogo." Yeah, Faye's a complete dragon. They won't talk to me. "

Oh, my God.... um, when I look at Faye, who is staring at me with a slightly swordsharp eyes, I think he was a descendant of the dragon... Oh, if you look closely, Faye's eyes and pupils are in the vertical! You really look like a dragon!

"Not for my family, but when the new gardener came by, I was so intimidated..."

I guess Faye's honor is finally tough. How dare you forget the words of a human and intimidate a servant!

“By the way, the maids are treating me like a big dog. I'm a little jealous.”

... well, the Red Gard family was a bit of a quirky, nice bunch of servants. You're perfectly adapted, gentlemen.

... so I was just checking on Faye's condition.

Faye stepped out of the nest and stared at me as she let out such a squeaky voice.

What's the matter?

Faye slowly blinked, still staring at me. However, there is no such danger as before, and I am interested in seeing it like that.

... ah, maybe you're showing interest because you have a lot of magic power.

When I reached out and touched Faye's cheek, my body temperature was higher than usual. The magic power seemed to be unstable and burning. Same as René.

Faye laughed, grinning with a slightly hot face as she grunted.... you look younger than usual, Faye. I think I understand why the maids try to be cute.

Moreover, Faye pinched the sleeve of my clothes and pulled on them. He looks up at me with his usual hot eyes. [M] It's a little desperate, or hard work... um.

It seems that Faye is bringing something with a lot of magic power into the nest.

When Mr. Roses told me to look, I saw that there was something in the nest that looked like a gem, something like a magic wand, an entire chip stone, or a magic stone lamp. "Maybe it's some magical tool from the Red Gard family..."

"So... the most magical thing I could think of was Mr. Togo, so I called you..."

Stroke

In other words, for Faye, who was collecting things with a lot of magic power, I would be a good source of magic power. Convinced, convinced.

Then I got a general idea of Faye's situation... and Faye caught the hem of my shirt.

... somehow, she looks lonely. Oh, yeah. That's right. It's kind of like being locked up, isn't it? I'm sorry.

"Um... I'm sorry to bother you."

Well, if that's the case. I decided to quietly interrupt Faye's nest. When you enter the nest while being pulled, your ankle sinks. The nest was fluffy with moss and blankets. That's pretty good.

It's a cozy nest, isn't it?

In the meantime, when he praised the nest, Faye somehow looked proud.... this is the second time, but I can see why the maids are so cute.

Well then, until Faye calms down, I'll hang out with her at the nest.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Togo." I'll make it up to you. "

“Don't worry about it. I'm just honored to be with you in the nest of the dragon's descendants."

Mr. Roses seems sorry, but I don't care that much. Faye's a little hot, so there's no real damage, and it's the second time I've ever hooked up with a dragon's nest. I'm used to it.

... well, that's why.

I have a fever.

When I put my hand on Faye's forehead, it was still hot. Toron, your eyes are staring at me, and somehow you're not feeling well.

I'll ask for a delivery service.

Remembering Rene's nesting days, he sent out a phoenix and had it carry a letter. Uh, for now, to Lila. 'Give me the water of the dragon lake, for Faye has begun to nest.' That's it.

"In a few moments, a good drink will come to replenish your magic power." Because I think it will be a little easier if I drink it. "

When I explained it to Faye, she laughed at me, even though it seemed like I wasn't feeling well. "Hmm, even if you become a dragon, it looks like a fei..."

"Nevertheless, Faye has a beautiful horn."

It's a corner, so I reached out and touched the corner of Faye. Soft black like ebony. Grey and brown, which is as close as possible to black, or, well, that kind of color. The warm texture of the organic matter reminds me of a slightly twisted and curved shape, a natural gloss, and a forest tree.

When I praised the horns, I realized that Faye was also praised, and somehow snorted in the back of her throat. At the same time, he came around the corner to me and kept quiet. [M] Do you mean you can stroke it even more? Well, don't hesitate to do that.

When I stroked Faye's horn, Faye was breathing a little roughly, and she was dumbfounded.

Oh, by the way, here's what René did. Um, the dragon's magic power was unstable when it was nesting. That's why I think Rene said something like nesting and calming your body. Right now, Faye is working hard to calm down the unstable magic in her body.

... even so, Faye might have been affected by the fairy's transformation snack. It evoked the Dragon's blood. Or maybe the magic in my body went a little crazy, and I went into a nest...?

Well, I guess Faye needs some dormancy anyway. I'm actually nesting. The dragon's horns, wings, and tails were growing. It's best to take a rest when you're not feeling well.

When Faye was about to fall asleep, the Phoenix brought me a bamboo water bottle. The letter I came to talk to you about said, "I don't know what it means, so I'll check on you later." Well, I guess so. "Thank you very much, Lila, for fetching water even though I don't understand the meaning..."

Well, let's just rehydrate and go to bed.

When he poured water from the water bottle into the bamboo cup and gave it to Faye, Faye took the cup and began to drink the contents quietly.... and after drinking the water, Faye looked somewhat satisfied. I think it's a little easier now.

... if I fed him the nuts from the dragon lake, he would surely be drunk with too much magic power. I thought the spring water from the lake would be just right, where the magic power of the nuts and the magic power of the crystal melted, but it seemed like it was on a good line.

Alright. Now that you've hydrated and enchanted me, let's get some sleep.

Well. René did too, but the dragon in the nest seems to want to sleep as much as possible. That's why I'm putting Faye to bed.... and then...

"... eh? Um, Faye?"

When I tried to put Faye to bed, I was put to sleep in the nest. Moreover, Faye hangs a blanket on me. Hey! You're the one who can put me to bed!

... after all, when I looked at Faye in distress, she looked satisfied and stretched out... and rounded up in the nest.

The tail that was wagging in a loose mood became quiet inside, and eventually, she could hear her sleeping.... oh, I fell asleep.

"... I wonder if the dragon is lonely."

René did too, but I guess I missed sleeping alone when I was nesting. Well, it would be more fun to have friends. I enjoyed the overnight party. It might be something similar to a hive.

I decided to go to sleep... because I couldn't move much when I was buried in the nest, grabbing the bottom of my clothes with one of Fay's hands. Good night!

"Wow, you're really nesting when you think about what's going on!?"

And then, when it comes to snacks.

Faye is still nesting, and I'm attached to it. And then Lila came to see us.

"Um... no, Faye-sama, you're a bit cute..."

Lila quickly stroked under Faye's chin and nostalgic for Faye. Hey! Faye's not a big dog! I know how you feel! I know how you feel!

"So, Turtle. You... are you, uh, in here as Fei-sama's bait?"

"Eh, bait!? No, I don't think it's like a boulder..." Maybe I want to keep something with a lot of magic power in my nest. "

Chengdu, then you're treating me like a dragon treasure.

... um, I'm embarrassed to be told that, but I think maybe... There's actually a lot of stuff in Faye's nest. I guess I'm being put in a nest as part of that. Hmm, it's a bit embarrassing after all...

"So, Faye-sama has become a completely cute creature."

”No, um, it's cute... but the figure hasn't changed”

”Still... it's not that bad anyway”

Lila stroked Faye's cheek, her head, and she was nostalgic for Faye. Hey, hey, hey, it's Faye. It's Faye!

"What? Do you want me to stroke you too?" It can't be helped, come on, come on, come on, come on

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Stop! Stop it! Don't stroke me!"

And when I looked at Lila, Lila started stroking me to see what I had in mind! I'm not a dragon!

Well, I wonder if this is going to return properly.

"Hmm... I don't know. It took Rene three days and three nights... but Faye doesn't have that much dragon blood, so she thinks it might be the end of the day."

If you don't come back, Dr. Unuki will be here.

Yeah.

While talking to Lila like that, I saw how Faye was doing. Faye seemed to be much more calm than I had first seen, and she didn't want to intimidate Lila. Rather, it showed Lila that the first stroke was effective.

Well, if it means that the magic power becomes unstable as you grow up, I think it would be nice to have magic power replenishment and dormancy.

You're right. So, the water at the dragon's place.

Lyla nodded with a face like, "I'm finally convinced."

"When René was at the ritual, she drank something like medicine or alcohol." Faye is not like that, so I thought I'd better prepare something separately. "

”Heh... how was Rene, by the way?”

"I was drunk."

"I wanted to see that..."

If you talk to Lila like that, Faye will pull me.

Huh? Are you sleepy again?

When he was done, Faye nodded me on a blanket and closed her eyes as if to protect me.... ahhh.

"... this is how a dragon protects its nest treasure."

"Um, Lila, don't draw. Hey, don't draw it."

"Whatever you say, I'll draw." Why don't you draw it, too? "

That's what Lila says. It's kind of embarrassing, but... no, I don't think it's possible to draw a dragon from the perspective of the treasure that the dragon protects. That's right. It was definitely time to draw.

... and then in the evening, Lila returned, satisfied with her paintings. Faye woke up suddenly again and blinked in a slumber, looking at me with a satisfied face. Surely, there are few dragons that can catch spirits and keep them in their nests.

... if I thought...

"... hey, Toogo, what time is it now...?"

Faye said.

We talked!

"Hmm...?"

Faye seemed somewhere blurry and didn't even notice that she hadn't spoken before. Well, I think it's a bit of a dream because my magic is unstable.

"Well, now... what time is it?" No way, I don't know either... "

And I don't know the time. After all, we've entered this nest without bringing in any clocks.

Um, are you hungry? Are you okay?

"Nhh..."

By the way, I haven't eaten anything for more than half a day, but I thought, "Is it okay?" When I called out, Faye stared blankly at the void as she moved around the nest...

”... I'm hungry”

I see.

Well, it's pretty blurry, it's still a bit hot, and it's still a bit younger than usual, but... for the time being, it's starting to talk like this. I'm guessing the nest is coming to an end. Maybe.

"Faye, do you want something to eat? My brother wants to have dinner in the garden."

"My dad will eat in the garden today."

There came Mr. Roses and his father. Seeing them, Faye somehow gladly wagged her tail and flapped her wings.

Eat!

"Whoa, Faye talked!"

"I've spoken! Did you do something for me!?"

No, it looks like you're back naturally.

Faye's tilting her neck at our conversation, but, well, everybody's worried about Faye.

"At the same time, I hope you can eat togos too. I'm going to get ready here right now."

"Wow, thank you."

In the meantime, a rug is laid, a low table for the garden and a cushion for the chair are carried, and a table is set next to Faye's nest. My cushions were brought, too... but I can't seem to get Fay out of the nest, so I'll stay like this. With the edge of the nest as a table, Faye and I will eat side by side. [M]

Alright! Now, let's commemorate my younger brother's return to his ancestors!

"In honor of my son being treated as a large dog by my maids!"

Neither Mr. Roses nor his father seem to be so worried about Faye's nest. Rather, I'm having fun and commemorating it by opening alcohol... "

"... um, Rosé-san was nesting before, right?"

Speaking of which, in the Red Gard family, nesting is like passing rituals. I heard that Mr. Roses was nesting too, and I asked.

"Huh? That's right. My nest was younger than Faye's... but it was hard at the time."

While eating the open sandwich, Mr. Rosé took a slightly distant look and told me.

"No, no matter what, I seem to have been rampaging around a lot." The wall facing the courtyard was burnt. Thanks to you, I'll repaint them all... well, I can't remember. "

... that's tough. Roses-san is said to be an excellent magician, so it must have burned on a massive scale...

"At that time, I thought it would be a rampage of magic due to growth." I thought it might be a kind of curse by bloodline... but I can't believe it was because we were descended from the dragon. "

"If I thought about it now, I might have noticed it sooner." Roses was nesting indoors with blankets and sheets, so I still don't know, but it seems that I was sleeping there as I headed to the Spirit Forest to build a rock nest..... "

Oh, yeah. I remember that, too. No, I mean, the woods.

Faye and his father came to the forest, broke a part of the cliff, and they were loitering there.

... well, if you recall, most of the Red Gard children were nesting somewhere.

Both men and women don't have much to do with it, the first Red Garde-san's blood drawer, and the people living around here... that is, not the people who went to the king's city by side, but the people who lived in the Red Garde territory all the time, well, they were nesting. Probably because of the magic power of the forest, I thought it would become a dragon.

"Well, it's very difficult to connect with dragons just because they're nesting." I can't help it.

"In the first place, we didn't have horns or wings." Hmm, it's sloppy, Faye. Oniichan wants to grow dragon feathers and horns, too. "

If so, I'll share the amber sugar with the fairy mark.

"Great! I was hoping to try it again!"

... and, well, while talking like this, we eat rice. I was concerned about Faye's physical condition, and there were many snacks. In fact, Faye ate a little and said, "I'm already hungry! 'I felt satisfied. And Mr. Roses and his father were in a state of snacks, snacks, and drinks...

"Faye, your horns are beautiful."

Hmmm...

Mr. Rosé stroked Faye's horn with a drink in it. With that, Faye stroked herself even more, even as she tickled her a little bit, and leaned forward and smashed her tail.... it's kind of like Rene.

"The wings are beautiful, too." It's a nice color. It's really my color. "

"Huh. Hehe..."

Faye was proud to be praised by her father.

Me too, the blood of the Red Gardens is flowing properly ~

Moreover, Faye said that while sneaking around.

"I'm so glad... I'm also a Red Gard..."

When I looked at Faye with such a reassuring look on her face, I thought, "I wonder if you've cared about me for a long time."

While watching the brilliant oniisan and dad, I felt uncomfortable at school. However, because he has a very good relationship with his family, he doesn't hate them anymore... maybe Faye has been blaming herself for that.

"... oh, I don't know." Faye, you are the pride of our Red Gard family. "

Heehee. I see.

Rather, it's more like a dragon than me or your father.

Right, that's good.

"Yeah. I envy this guy!"

"Damn it! Let my dad touch the horns!"

When I saw the Red Gard family making some fun noise, I knew I loved this family.

I've been protecting the forest for a long time, and I've been watching from the forest, so I've got feelings for you... even as Kirigoe Sky, I like the bright and warm colors of this family.

Then, after the party was over and the table was withdrawn, I didn't know if it was dinner or booze.

Speaking of which, is it okay for you not to go home?

Mr. Roses asked me that in one hand.

"Ahh, Tougo, don't go home." I'm lonely, aren't I? "

Faye comes from the side, grabs my arm and stares at me. "Ahh, Faye is so puffy that she can't even think about it normally..."

"Um... I won't have any problems if I don't come back, so I'll stay."

We did it!

"I'm sorry, Togo-kun..."

Faye was delighted as she groaned at me, and Mr. Roses gave me a relaxed look. Well, I'll be there if I can help.

"... but, Faye, you should take a bath."

”... nnh”

"René was taking a bath when she was nesting, too."

"... don't talk about other dragons."

Oh, you don't like to talk about other dragons! Oh, I see... I wonder if Rene is either...? Indeed, if you think about it carefully, I feel that Rene has a bit of a counter-consciousness against Faye, Faye's Red Dragon, Princess Rage's Golden Dragon, and so on.

"But let's take a bath." I think I'm sweating because I have a fever. Will it stick? And will it stink? "

"... I'm going in"

All right.

Well, if you decide to stay, that's how it works. Let's take a bath with Faye for the time being. Even your father used to bathe in the forest creek. [M] It's important to have a bath.

Bring Faye to the Red Gard family bath. Faye is somewhat blurry and dull, so she needs to pull her hand back and walk a bit. The passing maids said, "Oh, my God, Faye is cute." The maids here are wide-minded...

Then I'll take a bath with Faye, and then I'll take a bath with you. When she was clean, Faye was dried by Faye's fire spirits, and I was taken care of by Faye... and pulled back to the garden nest. You're not in the bedroom!

And when we return to the nest, we dive back into the nest. It's an outdoor nest, but it won't be so cold this evening, and if it's buried in a blanket of nesting material, it'll be warm. I don't think I should catch a cold.

"Something, with you around, you'll be relieved..."

Faye said that as she lay down in the nest, staring at me with her melancholy eyes.

Well, I'm in the woods.

I see.

"Yes, it is."

Somehow, I think that the Red Gard family used to nest in the forest not only because the forest had a lot of magic power, but also because they liked the forest. As far as the forest is concerned, I'm happy.

"Tsk tsk, thank you for coming..."

And Faye says it with a melting smile, a smile she has never seen before.... looks like a little girl. No, actually, from the forest, all the children are small...

"Good night, Red Garde's Dragon Son."

"Nhh..."

When he was tapping lightly around Faye's back, Faye eventually became round and began to fall asleep.

... somehow, when I look at Faye who fell asleep, my sense of being in the forest becomes stronger. In the end, the feeling of the forest watching the youngest child of the family sleeping all the time. It's like a smile.

... well, today is also a memorable day when my proud best friend, whom I can always rely on, was fluffier than me. Let's just say that I can grow up a little.

Then, the next morning.

"Ahh... I slept well!"

Gugu, stretching wide, Faye got up. The head has no more horns and the wings and tail have disappeared.

"... nh!? What are you doing here?!"

And when I woke up, I was extremely surprised to find myself in the garden. Well, I guess so.

"It's Fay's nest."

"Nest!? Huh!? Was I nesting?!"

"Yeah. Horns and wings and tails."

"Without a fairy snack!?" Are you serious!? "

Seriously. I forgot about the human word at the same time, and it's been a little blurry ever since the human word came back. I don't know what to say, but it was fluffy. Fluffy. Fluffier than me!

...... Well, when I told you how Faye was feeling in her nest, Faye said, "Wow, that's embarrassing! 'While saying so, it turned red and was wobbly in the nest. Haha. Shy, shy.... it might be a bit mean, but it's not such a bad thing for an occasional!

Then Faye flew to Soleila and bought sweets from the fairy Western confectionery store... and handed them out to the servants of the mansion. I'm sorry for the inconvenience! It seems that the maids were shy again when they said, "Ah, Faye-sama was cute and pretty good." Fresh.

To the new gardener who was intimidated, I said, "I'm sorry! 'And I gave him a lot of sweets. The gardener himself didn't seem to care about it, but it was scratchy.

... and that's what I'm talking about.

"This time, I really did bother you... I'm really sorry!"

"I don't care." It was kind of fun. "

Faye came to the café in the town of Redgard together to apologize to me one last time. Even if it wasn't a fairy cafe, the shop would be good.

"Ahh, damn it, this time I'm ashamed of you..."

"Faye is always good-looking, so I think it's okay to play with her."

"Wow! Wow! I didn't think that the day would come when the cane would say" Po-po-po "!"

Faye gurgled to the back of the chair, put her weight on it, and said, "Ahh!” I'm not getting too loud. ”Excuse me, buddy.

"... hey, Turbo. Don't you want to hide too?" That's why you can't borrow it? "

"I won't. I'm not a dragon." In the first place, you don't owe me anything. "

When I said the most extraordinary thing, Faye roared...

"Ugh... damn it!" Whether you're a dragon or a bird! "

Nothing.

Well, unusually, Faye is in a state where I'm clinging to her. Um... even if there's a day like this, right?

... by the way, I said "I'm not nesting" here.

It's another story that I ended up hiding too...
