The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

"In the meantime, go inside. It's a stand-up call, so it made us a venue."

Faye doesn't seem to change his attitude much, even if the nobles are his opponents. Somewhat polite, but more frank than that.

In contrast, the Geolene family looked somewhat, perhaps, annoyed.

"Oh, I'm not the second son of the Redgard family right now, I'm here as Togo Wesola's best friend. Let's just take it easy... okay? Towgo."

"Yeah."

I was a little nervous, but Faye's words solved it.

"All right. I'll show you the line. Welcome to Towgo Wesola's Best Friend's House. You're welcome."

Faye says so and shows her a slightly playful thank you as she winks. It's amazing because it looks like this is decided.

Faye walks into the house, so I decided to come in, too.

... though.

"Laocles?"

When he looked up at Laocles, who didn't follow me, he was staring at the people of the Geolene family.

"... nothing"

But that's about a second, and soon he'll follow me.

... Is something wrong? I'm a little worried.

Whatever it was, this is how discussions began with the people of the Geolen family.

"First of all, you're not the summoner who signed with the Redgards, are you?

"Yes."

I don't have a contract, and I'm not a summoner in the first place. I don't know, a summoner.

"Then it doesn't mean you're going to betray the Redgards if you're going to sign with the Georens," he said.

"Well, maybe"

When I answered, the lord of the Geolen family laughed more.... I want you to stop looking a little proud towards Faye. Because I'm angry.

"I don't have a contract with the Redgards because I don't have a problem with the Redgards, I have a problem with me."

I say it right. [M] I still can't stand to be ridiculed for making a fool of Faye just for misunderstandings.

"Problem?"

"The contract is waiting for me because I'm not sure I'm going to sign and do it as a job."

I know there are many other reasons, but it's just something I can't say clearly yet, and I don't want to say it clearly to these people, so for now, this is it.

... just somehow, the lord of the Geolen family was very... um, what to say, positive,.

"Something like that! If you summoned the Red Dragon, I don't think we're short of strength or anything! Somewhat younger, but with strength, you won't even have to worry about that extent. What do you say, make sure you sign with my house and become a Ziolen magician?

"I don't mean to. I'm still inexperienced, and if you want someone like that, I think you're better qualified than me."

In the meantime, say no properly.

I'm used to relaxing about adult "You Can Do More" with "Because I'm Not Confident" or "Because I'm Less Experienced" or "You're More Suitable Than Me".

"Hmm... but you gave the Redgards the Red Dragon, didn't you?

"Occasionally, the dragon I put out just liked Faye"

"But then we can have the Red Dragon summoned for us, too, right? Why do you summon a dragon in front of the Redgard family and not do it in front of our Georgen family?

"At that time, I just let out the dragon because you wanted me and Faye to help. So, you have no reason to do that."

This one, too, I say no while explaining the truth.

... really, I didn't 'give' the Red Dragon. I just painted a scarlet dragon, so the dragon came out and helped us... and he liked Fay and decided to become Fay's summoner, that's all.

And whether you like these people or not the dragons... um, maybe, I don't like them. Yeah.

"If there's no reason, the Red Dragon needs to be summoned? Then I'd like to formally ask you in the form of a request from us."

"... I think you should stop"

I honestly said that because I don't think these people would be liked by the dragons. Lying here doesn't make anyone happy.

"Wow. Are you trying to say that we can't obey a dragon that can obey the Redgard family son?

... Although, naturally, the lord of the Geolen family seemed a little disturbed.

"Right."

"Nah..."

I decided to be honest. [M] Suspended. Sorry.

"Uh... Santos Lado Geolen."

The lord's man is more out of line, so turn to 'your son'.

He has orange brown eyes on his golden hair, just like his father, but his eyes stare at me with hatred.

And while I feel a little uncomfortable, but I'm going to ask you what you want to hear properly.

"What are you going to do with the Red Dragon as a subpoena"

Then for a moment he looked like he had eaten.

"... what, you say?

"Yeah."

No way, Mr. Santos began to answer a lot of questions as he waited for an answer, thinking that it would not make him a subpoena and let him go.

"Such a thing... the legendary Red Dragon is worth it just because it exists in the first place. So you just have to exist. Behind me."

"... although the dragon is not a decoration"

"I'm not willing to end it just by decorating it. Instead of escorting them, even if you don't use them in action, the Red Dragon will be enough to intimidate you."

"Oh, you know..."

"... or did you even think I'd say 'burn down the town' or something?

"To the boulder. That's a little"

I had no idea. But right. Surely if there were a Red Dragon, would we be able to do as much as burn down the town?

But, um... this guy says what he's going to do with the Red Dragon "So," but he's not going to say what he's going to do with the Red Dragon. I don't want to give it to you anymore.

"... or what? You want me to give you the Red Dragon? You gave it to him?

Mr. Santos looked frustrated and grumpy when I looked sinister.

"Because I don't think you can do well with the dragon if you give it to me"

So I figured I'd answer honestly, and he got up furiously.

"You disrespectful bastard! You think I'm inferior to the Redgards' incompetence? How dare you talk like that!

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... calm down."

Seeing Mr. Santos wave his fist, Faye also stood up and grabbed that arm and stopped me.

"You......!

"Calm down. Get in your seat. If you can't, I'll throw it out. Togo hates fighting."

Faye is taller than Mr. Santos. If Faye was awesome as if looking down, Mr. Santos seemed to calm down a little and took his seat. Good.

"... Hmm. Apparently, it's not as clear as it sounds."

So finally, the lord's people start talking too.

"We make a request to you. Red Dragon, or equivalent demon summons. I won't ask for anything more."

I mean, even if the dragons can't get along with these people, it's not my job. Is that what you mean?

"What do you think? It won't be a bad story. Pay what your employees have been offering for a long time. Success rewards will also be paid separately"

I don't need a reward, do I? So I don't find it particularly appealing. You're in trouble. How do I put it?

"I thought if I could make a deal with my house, but if you don't want to, you can talk about it again. But anyway, I don't think a boy who can summon the Red Dragon should be left without any backing."

"... Really?"

If people like you don't come, I don't need a back shield, but I don't want to tell you.

Instead, I wonder how to say no. I should have thought about it some more in advance. But I didn't think you'd decide to turn me down so soon.

If I was worried, they would have mistaken it for something. The lord of the House of Geolen said.

"I also know what it's like to be bothered. I'm guessing the Redgards have in-laws. Even though I know exactly what it feels like to have to be in law. But you shouldn't let go of your success just because you feel compelled"

My brother-in-law, when I'm told, I do think so, too.

I have a brother-in-law, Faye. Though you think there is more to it than that, you certainly don't want to do anything to the detriment of the Redgard family because you have an in-laws against the Redgard family.

But...

"If you take our request here, we can also take you to the royal castle. We are shallow in history, but we pride ourselves on being more powerful than the Redgards. Mr. Towgo, it's for your success. Take this request. Please, I don't want you crushing that talent around here. [M] What do you think?

...... yeah.

I don't like it when people say that.

"I refuse"

I had nothing to worry about. I just had to be honest with you.

"... is that a contract with the Georens?

"It's all. I will not make a contract with you. I don't even take requests. I'm not putting out dragons."

I'm not good at talking. But the feeling is right here.

"What!? You disrespectful bastard!

"Which is disrespectful?"

When I looked back, Mr. Santos looked a little frightened.

"... you're going to regret it. You think you can live in this world with that attitude?

"Go home. I have nothing more to talk to you about."

I don't want to have another conversation. I stare at them.

... Then Faye struck one, hand.

"That's right. In the meantime, please leave already today. I'll send you an official refusal in a letter from here."

"What?"

"You don't have a clue. I don't think Togo is in the mood. Or what? Forced to grab the tow? That's gonna be irrevocable, isn't it?

When Faye returns that with the usual attitude, the Geolen family faces more and more angry.

"... or do you want to sit? Then you are enemies, not guests."

Plus, Faye changed her attitude, which is awesome. The hand is hanging from a brooch worn on Faye's left chest… on a gem containing a red dragon.

"... you'll regret it."

And that's what the Georens said and stared at us... and took their seats and left.

"... Towgo, you, you're gonna be so angry."

"Huh?... Wow"

I was stroking Faye's head after the Georens left. Shaggy. Don't hesitate.

"I'm glad to hear that. I thought you weren't gonna get mad at me."

"... hmm"

I kind of think, shaking my head back with my scratched hair.

What did I say and do just now... yeah.

"I think I said too much"

Hey, I think I'm going into self-loathing. I would have done more, he said.

"Really? I'm glad I did that, huh? Hey, Laocles?

"Right. I think I could have said more."

I have trouble being told that. I didn't have much more to say than that, and there are limits to my words. Besides, I think there was more to be said...

"... ma, no. Let's just call it an angry memorial today!

"Fine, don't commemorate that..."

"Nice! For now, rice! Let's eat! So, go to sleep! If you don't like it, you can only eat and sleep!

Faye drags me before I think about anything I don't like.

I was dragged into the dining room... and I decided to think, okay?

Yeah, in the meantime, I hope this calms down for once...

I once again had a plenty of dinner at the Redgard family that day, and I decided to take a bath while I was full and sleepy, my body warmed up and I was getting sleepy more and more... to sleep.

"Good night."

"Oh."

By the way, Laocles is still in the same room today. I already said no, so I thought it would be okay if I had a separate room...

... Laocles stares out the window like he's on guard of something.

This... is not the end, is it?

The next day, I decided to go back to the woods, but they stopped me.

... It wasn't Faye, not Faye's family that stopped me... it was Laocles.

Stay here for another five days.

"Huh?"

I didn't expect Laocles to say this. Somehow, it's very surprising.

"Anything wrong?

"You should be on guard with those Geolen family guys"

If Laocles says so, I guess so... somehow, overlapping, unexpected.

In the meantime, permission from Faye came out light. "Stay here for about 50 days if you want," so I refrained. I don't want you to multiply it by 10 at once.

And I decided to have Raocles painted. [M]

Though.

"... those people"

While modeling, Laocles, yes, started talking.

"It looks familiar"

"Huh?"

I wonder what that means, I wonder.

"That guy named Sardo Roe Geolen, he was the assistant to the former lord I killed"

... Apparently, the world is narrow.
