The Principle of a Philosopher by Eternal Fool “Asley”
◆ Epilogue 01: Ash Tiger Courtship
- September 3, 96 of the War Demon Calendar -
Two days after Lucifer the Demon King vanished from this world.
In Ed, the capital of Twead, the voice of joy was still echoing in many places.
It's not just the Demon King's fear. The people, who were also freed from the fear of monsters, were happy to let go of this.
One person walks through the streets of such a vibrant morning.
Folks join hands and bow their heads as they walk with their chests up singing their nose songs.
It was clear from this that the person was special.
"Phew, Phew, Phew, Master's, Phew, Phew, Phew."
But the person in question is not aware of the gratitude from around him.
People's hands are not enough no matter how much they have.
Porch couldn't play with his busy friends and decided to take a walk alone.
A being who watches such a pouch from a distance. And four people watching the man behind you.
"Mr. Porch......"
After that, the sigh out of the corner of the heavenly beast - the grey tiger - was long and deep.
Because the eyes of the grey tiger climbing to the outer wall of Ed and capturing the pouch from it are still heavenly beasts.
"Just pass away (,,)"
I honestly don't care about the grey tiger, but Weldan's voice trying to push his back.
"Don't do it again. Disgusting."
The voice of the blacktortoise (sneering), though not hairy enough to support the grey tiger.
"Isn't that the original?"
Grey tiger jade crushing or miracle, anyway, the voice of Huang Long (this kind of) who wants to know and encourages the results quickly.
"I'll pick up the bones and stick with them."
The voice of a purple dead bird who expects to die of shock from the jade crushing of a grey tiger, but who pushes it for now because he won't act for long.
It's not like Four Heavens is marking the end of a day's love.
Four Heavens enjoys it anyway.
At this peaceful time, which can also be called youth, the heavenly beasts who think of the immobile Grey Tiger will finally take action.
That evening a purple dead bird told the grey tiger in front of the other heavenly beasts.
"I called Mr. Porch here. Huh!? Oh, hey! What the hell are you talking about, purple dead bird!?
There is no such thing as a purple dead bird answering something to a surprising grey tiger.
However, it was Black Turtle and Yellow Dragon who praised the achievement.
"Fabulous Purple Dead Bird"
"I'll do it."
"Huh, right?
A purple dead bird that gleams with joy.
But the grey tiger could not be pleased with it.
"Yes! When the hell are you coming!? I'm not ready yet!?
To the hurried ash tiger, Weldan says his nose roughly.
"Ha, I'm definitely not ready for Porch, so it'll be just fine"
"Damn, that's right, but anything's too steep! Don't you think we need at least the next two or three thousand years, Huang Long!?
"No, not at all"
"Black Turtle!?
"Asshole."
"Purple Dead Bird Whoa!?
"Just entertain me."
No one has any Grey Tiger allies.
He was a grey tiger searching for allies, but there were only heavenly beasts in this southern square of Ed.
A grey tiger that cannot be hidden in agony drapes heavily from the mental state of isolation.
(Goddamn it! I have to...! I just have to do it! But this is not a bad situation. It's not necessarily that Mr. Porch won't leave Towed in the future. Then chances are low through this time. Even for my friends who push me back, I...... I just have to do it!!
Bite his fangs tight, and the grey tiger dwells his strong determination in his eyes.
And he raised his face, which he was leaning over, and the grey tiger said.
"All right! Then everyone! Work with me. - Huh?
It was not in the eyes of the grey tiger who raised his face that it was in the company.
"Uh, Mr. Grey Tiger? Me, Mr. Purple Dead Bird called me, don't you know? Oh, but you said Mr. Purple Dead Bird, right?" Someone wants to talk to me, "he said. Could that be about Mr. Grey Tiger?
Yes, I didn't have company.
We noticed Porch approaching, and our comrade audience disappeared. From right in front of the grey tiger.
The grey tiger in front of Porch was trembling like never before.
(Why... why am I trembling...? Why......!?
There is no way for a distorted face grey tiger to know the answer is nervous.
When he tilts his neck in front of him and sees the face of the walking pouch, the grey tiger understands his good opportunity.
"... Oh, uh..."
"Yes! What is it!?
Porch answers brightly. But already at dusk.
The sun sets and the moon shows its face in the sky.
The palpitations of the grey tiger, his shortness of breath was terrible, but "only in front of the pouch," he pierces the poker face as best he can.
(No, what is this angel?!? Too cute! What can I say!? What am I supposed to say!? How do I look directly at this holy face!?
Porch leaning his neck against a grey tiger who answers nothing. The grey tiger tilts his neck to match it.
I was leaning too far. The face of the grey tiger leaned so far as to peek from the bottom.
Shortly afterwards, in the eyes of the grey tiger, what appeared in the eyes that looked up.
Well, I've heard it before! To Merqui, the disciple of the wise! Poetry... it's poetry...! All you have to do is talk about love like you sing! Superb love unique to this time... all you have to do is pass it on!
When so understood, the Grey Tiger decides.
Today, on this occasion, through this time... when I courtship Porch.
"... grey tiger...?
"Mr. Porch!!
"Hiya!?... to?
Surprised by the strong words, Porch put confusion in his face as the face of the grey tiger was serious itself.
Shortly after, the grey tiger breathed heavily and threw up heavily.
And say it. On this occasion, say what you deserve at this time.
"Tsu... the moon is... beautiful..."
He meditated strongly on his eyes, and the face of the said grey tiger was cut off in pieces.
"Huh? Oh, yes. Beautiful! What! That's right. Are you okay, Mr. Grey Tiger?!? Weren't you more gutty than after some demon king fight!?
"Ha... ha... ha... that's okay. Absolutely fine."
"So, but!
"Ha ha... what a gracious word. So, let's say... sweet to your word, I'm off today already"
"Yes! You better do that! Yes!"
Saying so, Porch dropped his back off, and the grey tiger left the spot.
The Four Heavens of the Shaky Eyes, who lay low and come before the resting Grey Tiger.
"Are you kidding me?
Mayfly, black turtle.
"There was a lot of clowning."
"Shut up, Yellow Dragon."
"Die."
"I'm dead, Weldan."
"Is that the Grey Tiger courtship? There's no way it's going to get through to Porch."
"You don't know anything, purple dead bird"
"What?"
The grey tiger who stood everyone up in front speaks.
"What's the purpose of this one, say it"
"That's... for the Grey Tiger to courtship Mr. Porch, isn't it?
Huang Long tells him to draw his intentions.
"Yes, that's my courtship. And I, indeed, told Mr. Porch. Didn't I?"
When I heard the question, everyone at the earliest (no longer) was looking at the grey tiger with a frightened eye.
Yes, everyone understood what the Grey Tiger said. Understand that I don't even want to.
"I mean, it's fine if Mr. Porch doesn't notice the courtship of the Grey Tiger. Because courtship has already taken place. Is that what you're trying to say?
"Huh, it's a boulder yellow dragon...!
A grinning grey tiger.
Seeing such a grey tiger, everyone with a shuddering face leaves.
"I don't know who you are."
The black turtle flies away.
"What self-satisfaction. Is it still a heavenly beast, not at all......!
Huang Long is pissed and angry at Pumpkin.
"... chicken"
A fervent disdain from purple dead birds (chicken).
"I knew you'd die."
There was no intention of killing Weldan. It was just a word from disappointment.
But even listening to those four abandoned dialogues did not change the satisfaction of the Grey Tiger.
The grey tiger waves his tail and smiles as he looks at the moon.
(I did. I did it right. Yeah. I told him right...!
And that's what I was telling myself.
◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆
That night, Azley was reading a book while using Porch's belly pillow.
Easy resting pouches awaken Azley's subtle changes in his head.
"Hmm? Did it even say something funny about the book...?
"No, I don't know"
"What do you mean?
Porch peeks into Azley's book as he says it.
"Why would you be 'I love you' in 'You're beautiful moon'? Hey, Pooch, this is absolutely crazy, right?
"... what is it, this book?
"Mel lent it to me a long time ago. I've read it because I'm finally starting to have time, but it's not for me, this' literary interpretation 'book...... hmm? Hey, Porch? You okay?
"Mmmmm... I've heard that word somewhere...! It's going to come out a little bit, almost. Something like this...... Uh-huh!
"What's that? In the meantime, I'm going to bed today. Sleep and eat, and you'll feel refreshed."
"Yes! Maybe so. Hey!
The next day, in Porch's head, where he slept and ate, he was really refreshed.
I don't remember anything about yesterday.
