Episode 16: Sweet Traps and Trap Breaks * 11

We immediately pulled out the hotel and went out.

"... ah, please hide it for a moment"

However, as soon as she tried to turn the corner of the street, Ms. Crowe slipped into the gap between the building and the building on the side of the road. Laocles stood in front of the gap and hid Claire somehow.

... then a bit of a bad person came out from across the street, looked at us, and then left again.

Um, now that I'm here...

"... that's what the Shales are using right now."

Is there such a thing? Really, dick...

"Let's go. If we don't hurry, they might come this way."

Yeah, I think we should hurry. Claire will be in trouble.

So we managed to get out of King's Landing.

After all, we would have managed to escape King's Landing without meeting anyone else who was looking for Mr. Crowe.

And walk from King's Landing to some point invisible... where, for the first time, you start flying with Alicorn and Red Dragons.

At first it was low-altitude flight. If they find us from King's Landing, we'll be in trouble.

... flying low gives me a strange feeling. When I fly high, it feels like I'm flying in a dream, but when I fly at low altitude, I see the ground flying away more and more, and it feels like speed.

Then, after a while, when it's totally night, we'll go up altitude.

You won't be able to see it from King's Landing if you come here, and there are forests and hills ahead. It's a little dangerous to fly low in the dark, so you'd better get out of the sky without obstacles.

... when the altitude rose, the night was dark and the view was almost invisible. However, the bright moon lit the area and the terrain was blurry.

And above all, the moon and stars are beautiful. I like the low-altitude flight I just took, but I like this altitude flight that feels like it's close to the sky and in the sky in the first place.

"... so? I hope you didn't retire happily, Mr. Crowe."

As Alicorn and Red Dragon's flight stabilized, Faye began to ask Crowe that. Alicorn, on which Laocles and I are riding, will hear it and fly closer to the Red Dragon.

"The retirement of a detective is not going to be satisfactory. Shelley didn't want to let me go because she didn't want their secrets leaked. Well, as far as the report goes, the mission has failed. He said that he was too incompatible with the boy to be attracted. The Shale family must be in serious trouble because the report on the Red Dragon said the right thing."

Strong.

"I didn't get paid because I failed the mission, but I washed my feet with it, so I got this painting for the silence fee, plus I got the money for the moment, and that's it.... but it's their area of expertise to lynch a 'no longer on their side' opponent. I've been chased, a long time."

... that's tough. I admit to retiring, but I'll kill you. It's a mess. I don't suppose it's like you're saying you're not allowed to retire. I think it would definitely be illegal if there were labor standards laws in this world. No, I don't know if there are such rules in this world...

"That's why I was late when I was distributing them. I'm sorry."

"Yeah, it's okay. I'm glad you're safe."

"... if you can get away with the Shelley soldiers and the others behind you, I'm sure you have an arm."

"Oh, that's easy enough to get away with."

... Crowe has a cool face, but it's amazing. This man was more amazing than I expected. [M] It wasn't just beautiful and attractive!

"But don't worry. I'm sure they're looking for the royal castle by now. You didn't think I was going to be hired by you."

And Claire laughs as she scratches her hair in the wind at night.

"'Claire grabbed the information on the Red Dragon and took it where it cost more than bringing it home to Shale.' That's better, isn't it?

"I mean, have you made me think that your actual destination is a cornforest?

"Yes, I'm confident. They must have misled their eyes.... because they just don't know that I'm" like a forest "!

... I see. Few people know that Mr. Crowe laughs like this. That's... a bit of a happy, regrettable feeling, but still a happy, annoying feeling.

"In that case, I think I'll be living in hiding in the woods for a while. Nice to meet you."

Yes. Mr Crowe will be sneaking around in the woods for some time to avoid being found by the Shales.... wish and fulfill!

That is how we arrived in the forest in the middle of the night. It's late at night, so I'll have Faye stay in the woods. Me, Claire and Faye at my house. Laocles was able to return to his house after a long time. Yeah, I'm sorry. After all, I think we should prepare a house for our customers...

... that's how I got into bed, happy that everything went so well.

I felt like I had a good dream when I went to bed, and then...

When I woke up in the morning, I smelled something good.

I thought about that and went to the living room...

Good morning, Mr. Corn.

There, Mr. Crowe made me breakfast. Fluffy omelette and vegetable soup. Bread with ham and cheese. And the tea that Mr Crowe seems to be brewing has a nice, fluffy scent.

... it's been a long time since I've had breakfast with someone's hands in it.

I'm kind of glad... I'm a little late.

"... well, I'm going to be in this forest for the time being. I'm going to work this long."

Then, Mr. Crowe said that and looked a little awkward and stubborn. I want to draw this face as well.

"Yes, thank you."

Almost as I thanked him, the door of the house opened. [M] Apparently, Faye, who happened before me, went to fetch Laocles. They both came in.

We'll have dinner when we're all together.... it's been a long time since I've had dinner with so many people. I don't think there have been more than three of them in the last few years. By and large, I ate alone. [M]

... the breakfast was kind of delicious. When I said it was delicious, Mr. Crowe smiled happily.

Yeah. Somehow, I'm happy, too.

Somehow... it's peaceful.

After breakfast, I quickly start thinking of a place to build my next house. [M]

Even Mr. Crowe wouldn't want to live with me forever. I promised to build a fine house for her.

"I wonder where it would be better."

"Well, I'm not particularly particular about it... but I'm glad it's a place with lots of flowers."

I see. Now, where should I build Mr. Crowe's room in a place with lots of flowers? "

The location of Mr. Crowe's house is important, but so is a house like a customer. I want to make sure I have a place for sudden guests and sudden models to stay.

"... by the way, are you building a house here? Should I call a carpenter?

Yeah, well, that's it.

... somehow, I haven't had the chance to say anything, and I haven't told Claire yet that the painting will become a reality.

I don't know what to do. I don't mean that I don't trust Mr. Crowe, but this guy was a detective, and perhaps there was a disturbance in King's Landing, and there's no chance that he's still a detective.

... hmm, what should I do?

I decided to start building Mr Crowe's house from that day on.

Crowe stays at home, and in the meantime I call a lot of horses and make sure I don't know what I'm doing or where I am in the first place... and paint a picture of the house inside.

I thought I could draw a small house without losing my magic, but it's against my promise to make Mr. Crowe's house a mess.

So I wanted to make a fine house, so I decided to draw it from the foundation first.

Because the forest is bumpy on the ground, it is high floor type and horizontal. It is the image of building a house on a high floor with pillars on the ground.

... but maybe there's a little more magic than when I painted my house, and I'm confident I'm getting better control. So, don't split it up like before. It was decided to divide the foundation, pillars and skeletons, walls and roofs into three parts. This way I can leave the house with plenty of room.

But it can't end here. I want to set up the room with the perfect interior for Claire, and I think I need a functional aspect as well.

Kitchens designed to be easier to use than my house, and lighting with magic stones. And a bath. Yes, baths are especially important. There's only one woman in this forest... and I don't like the same bath as a man. Yeah, I'm sorry.

That's why it took me more than a week to set up the interior and other facilities.

The truth is, I think we should go to the town furniture store together and pick out what kind of furniture we want, but if we take Mr. Crowe to town now, it's going to be troublesome... until it gets almost cold, I'm sorry, but you'll have to endure with the furniture I drew out.

... but the interior was satisfactory to me.

Furniture is moist and calm, dark brown with accessories. The furniture with legs is mostly cat legs. Somehow, Claire's image is a curve. Yes. Mr. Crowe is from Art Nouveau.

Then, the floor flooring is finished with dark brown wood and a deep green rug is laid on top.

The curtains are lace curtains and light green curtains. The grass pattern is woven in antique gold-like colors on the pale green side. The floor rugs and carpets are the same.

The wallpaper in the room is Ivory. This pattern is also a curved grass pattern. The lamp on the ceiling of the room is shaped like a Suzuran flower made of milk glass.

The bed... I was a little confused about whether I could make it, but it would be troublesome without a bed, so I let it out. The large bed has a fluffy futon and a smooth blanket. Then I applied the canopy with a deep green cloth and a light green cloth.... yeah, Claire's image was of a bed with a canopy.

... overall, I tried to hold down the number of colors and make them calm shades. The furniture is also available in a variety of colors, so that there is a gold inlay at one point, so it is not very decorative.

And then the overall curve. Curtains, wallpapers, and rugs are floral. The shape of the furniture and the shape of the luminaire are also curved.... I think Claire would rather have a curved design than a straight, crisp design.

What do you think?

"... when did you get so ready?

I've been painting houses and furniture for some time now, and I haven't seen much of Mr Crowe since some of the horses guided me through the woods during that time. But today, when the house was largely completed, I finally invited Mr. Crowe to show off the house that was going to be Mr. Crowe's house.

"It's a lovely room. Such a lovely room, I don't think so.... wow, that's amazing. This lamp is perfect for my taste!

Mr Crowe was looking around the house for a while. Come along, let your eyes shine, and look at all the rooms.

And when I've finished looking at all the rooms, I'm a little worried, and I'll just say it.

"If I had a different house, I'd make it a guest room....."

... and then...

"Oh, no! I will definitely live here!

That's what Claire says and laughs happily. Great. Looks like you like it.

"Just...."

However, Claire now looks a little more difficult and looks around the room....

"Where should I decorate that painting?

... yeah. Speaking of which, I didn't think about where to decorate that painting.

Then I was able to get Laocles to help me do a little reshaping and decorate the painting safely and in the free space. I've almost cleared one side of the wall, so I think I can decorate a few more small pictures.

What do you think?

Yeah, that's good.

A simple framed watercolour painting of a calm color was decorated on the walls of the room, and Mr. Crowe's house was finally completed. That's good.

"Thank you for a really nice home."

"Yeah, I've decided to hire you, so this is natural."

"I didn't think you'd get such a nice place.... it's really a food boy. Hey, you're doing this nice swing of yours, aren't you?

"... I don't know if it's nice, but it's swinging around."

We had such a conversation on Krah's return from his new residence. Yeah, I'm swinging. Sorry, Laocles.

"Well... if you like your life here, don't run away or betray me."

"No. I'm not betraying you. Is there any other job so well paid? I can't afford to be hired at the royal castle."

Laocles uttered a vigilant word against Krah, but Krah accepted it and said, "There is absolutely no advantage in betraying me." I'm glad.

"Besides, if you betray me, I'll give you more. Still... as long as I'm in this forest, I'm sure I'm getting greedy. I'm sure there's no end to it, this."

That's what Claire said and smiled... peeking into my face. [M]

"My heart, it's like I haven't eaten for a long time, it's like a little bit of a foodie."

... yeah. Well, then, let's have a lot of food. It's not Faye, but let's feed Claire with our hearts.

Yeah, that might be a bad idea, but...

... when I was thinking about that.

The sky suddenly darkened.

Now, the sun is shading.

... and...

"Corn!

A moment after I heard Mr. Crowe scream.

Gashiri, and. With the momentum that seems to make such a sound, and yet, with so much strength as it doesn't hurt, I'm firmly grabbed...

... it was still taking off.

That giant bear gummies is holding my eggs and using the spring in my face. He grabbed me and took off.

... yeah. I don't know what to do with this.
