Episode 22: Not a sword, not a shield * 7

In the rainy village, the villagers were already out. The birds fly over it, and then me and the dragon come back.

The villagers were kind of looking up at us and bowing.... I wonder what this is, because I believe in it.

We go back to the woods somehow complicated.

... and housed Mark Pink in a newly built building in the corner.

When I woke up, Mr. Marpink looked around... stunned. I suppose so. I woke up suddenly and this is the place, so it's natural to be surprised.

This is in the woods... in the cage.

The cage is made of magic steel. The lattice is designed like a living tree. The design is such that thin young trees grow in a circle, and the branches overlap, making it a proper cage... Those inside will look as if a tree made of steel has stretched to lock itself in.

... Claire said that this kind of a slightly unrealistic design and practical performance is the secret of fear.

Claire seemed to have hit the reading, and Marpink touched the lattice a bit, grabbed the lattice and shaken it... with a confused look on his face. I mean, you must have a face of fear.

I waited for about three minutes to see how Mr Marpink was doing and realized that there was no exit in this cage.

... and noticing that there is no exit in this cage, he leaves in front of Mr. Marpink, who is shaking the iron lattice.

"This cage won't open. At least while you're alive."

As I walked out of the shadow of the tree, as I said in the script, Mr. Marpink obviously looked faint. [M]

Moreover, when the dragon came out from behind me and lined up next to me, Mr. Marpink finally looked like he was frozen.

"I'm angry. You know why."

Even more so, Mr Marpink suddenly began to nod again and again.... I wonder if you really understand. I'm a little worried.

Well then, the first one.... why did you do that? "

While worried, Mr Marpink put his mouth shut when he listened to the script.... and watching the dragon strip its teeth, it starts chatting in a hurry.

"I'm sorry! I didn't mean that...."

"I see. I'm sorry."

I get a little angry because they talk too much. Then Mark Pink shuts up again.

"... what were you going to do to capture the Spirit of the Forest?

"Well, I mean... I just wanted you to bring development to my territory. However, even if I solicited you normally, you didn't really tell me...."

"So you did that to the village in the woods?"

When I asked again, Mr. Marpink nodded silently. [M]

"... did someone in the royal family ask you to do this?

However, as soon as I heard that, I raised my face and waved my hands in front of my face.

"Oh, royal!? No, no, no... that's not true. I don't have any. Really...."

... sweet.

But I feel like a water theory even if I hang on any longer, so let's move on to the next question.

Well, the second one.... what is this?

I take the mirror out of my sleeve. [M]

... this is the mirror that came out of Mr. Marpink's pocket.

Looking in the mirror, Mr. Marpink had a faint face. Then they finally realized that they had fished their pockets, completely disarmed themselves and confiscated all the suspicious objects.

"What is this?

I ask again. [M]... then Mr. Marpink kept his face pale and silent.

... I'll take a look in the mirror. Then there was a sort of nasty feeling. At that time... it felt like being stared at by Mr. Marpink in a confectionery shop. I mean, you tried to use the magic of temptation on me back then.

"Is this something you can use to defend yourself?

"Eh, ah...."

Mr. Markpink's reaction was one right now, but I know a lot about it. This enhances the magic of temptation. And perhaps he can prevent the magic of temptation from others. That's why Mr. Crowe's glance didn't work for Mr. Marpink.

"Who gave you this?

"... from the sorcerer"

"Where is the magician?

"Ugh, it's our cuddle. I'm in our territory....."

Right. Well, we'll check it out later.... it's a little inconvenient to have so many of these. Yeah....

Well, let's get this over with, but sign it.

That's the end of the question for now. I might actually need to hear more about it, but my signature takes precedence over it.

I have a few pieces of paper carried by the fairy and sent into the cage. [M] I already know that Mr. Marpink is a person who can't see fairies, so I'm sure the paper that the fairy brought up from my hand would look like it had come into a fluffy cage by itself.

And finally, take the bamboo pen and the ink pot and get ready. Grow a table from the ground where they are placed.

The table has the same design as the cage. That's why it looks like a table-shaped magic steel tree has suddenly grown.

... by the way, this time the canvas is on the back of the dragon's head. Thank you! Thank you!

"I'm not getting out of here until I sign everything. I won't let you out even if you die. I won't return the bones to your hometown."

While thanking the dragon in my heart, I tell Mr. Markpink the script line. [M] I feel a little sorry for Mr. Markpink, but I can't help it because I need him to sign it properly.

Hurry up.

When I hurried, Mr. Marpink rushed and signed a few sheets of paper. [M]... I wonder if you're reading this.

"... are you reading the paper properly?

It wasn't in the script because I was too worried, but I asked. Then Mr Marpink hurried and began to check the document.... but I think it's too late to check after signing it.

The document contains the contents of Mr. Markpink's guilt and the restrictions on Mr. Markpink's future actions.

The point is, the first one said, "I sent those who cursed and sealed their mouths to the forest village, and caused the village to be roughed up by arson, etc." "I mistook the villagers for forest spirits" "I tried to take them away to the territory by threatening the mistaken opponent."

The second one says, "Within five days of liberation, I will lift the curse and apologize to all those who cursed me." "I will never enter Redgard territory again." "I will keep any information I have learned about the forest or forest village secret." "I will announce the sins I committed within 10 days, and I will be judged by human law." "I will not tell any lies in the future."

From the third sheet onwards, various details are written to ensure that the holes are not searched, or the contract is made using magic to ensure that all of the contract is fulfilled, or the contents of the contract are withheld. Apparently... almost all the papers around here were made by Claire and Faye. Stream stone, professional...

"This is...."

Hurry up.

Mark Pink, who read the paper, is pale. Sure, I think it's a big deal for him. You're going to confess to the crime. Probably a bit of a loss of identity. Faye said something like that.

"Nah, why is this...?"

"I don't know about crimes committed by humans. That's why you should be tried there."

Once again, in a hurry, Mr. Marpink grabbed the pen while bluishing, and then reluctantly signed.

And after the signatures are finished, the fairies come back to collect the paper. It all came back to me, so I looked at them and made sure Mr. Markpink's autographs were correct.

All right. Now, phase one, clear.

"I signed it! Get me out of here!

Mr. Marpink said that as soon as I checked the signatures. I want to get out of the cage right now.

"Not yet. I didn't sign it."

I'll add it to the painting of Mark Pink's hand while he's asleep... and I'll draw a little abstract eye painting on the back of his hand. "I painted it."

... then, Mark Pink's eyeballs appeared on the back of his hand. Mr. Marpink sees it, he's a little nervous.

"I'm always watching. Stop acting like a fool.... there's no more" next "."

I will ask the dragon after saying so. [M] The dragon manipulates the water and envelops Mr. Marpink. Mr. Marpink was in the water for a while, but in the meantime, he fainted.

I saw it, I had the water released immediately, and... I redrawn the cage a little and dodged a part of the grid.

We'll have Mr. Marpink dragged out of there, and then we'll have Mr. Marpink carried to the dragon. Just outside the forest, outside the forest village.

... by the way, the birds are squeaking on top of the cage. This guy seems to be a grabber, but not a returner...

Then Mr. Marpink returned safely to his territory. Outside the forest village, a semi-frazy place was found by the "lucky" forest knight, and he reported it to the Markpink realm, from where he received him, and Mr. Markpink was safely taken to his home.

... and I decided to make the contract public.

I wrote ink on Japanese paper and put a paper with a vermilion stamp in a cylinder of blue bamboo, and sent it to the Red Gard family and the Mark Pink territory, respectively.

It seems that people in the Markpink realm know that it is a type of contract where magic works properly, and the contents of the contract will be fulfilled.

In other words, a wizard from the Marpink family came to the village in the woods in surprise, and all the people who had been trapped in the prison were released from the curse. A formal apology letter was received from the Marpink family, and Mr. Marpink himself appeared and caused a lot of trouble.

Anyway, I think it was very unnatural for the aristocrats to suddenly appear themselves as saying, "I did something bad." Perhaps Fay and the others won't find it so strange, but anyway, here's Mr. Markpink... I don't think he would have ever appeared if nothing had happened.

Something happened around here, and Fay and the others had a rough day.

... the Spirit of the Forest is supposed to have nothing to do with the Red Gard family, which is why I am deliberately sending a written letter to the Red Gard family this time... so it seems that Fei and the others went to ask about the situation.

Especially, the testimony that "heavy rain, lightning fell, the ground cracked, and the monster's arm appeared" was testified at the scene.

However... by the time the on-site verification started, the crack had already healed completely, and the hot springs were pouring out, creating a fluffy atmosphere.

... so Faye's father was passing by saying, "It was suddenly a hot spring, so the Marpink guards must have mistaken it for a crack or a monster's arm." Yeah, it fits roughly.

Mr. Marpink himself has been tried like that, but since he is noble, he doesn't have to be severely punished... but he feels uncomfortable because he has been demoted a little or stripped of his identity.

And rumor has it that I was scared to see a mole in the shape of an eye appearing on the back of my hand, and I always wore gloves.... well, it's nothing magical, it's just a painting... well, I might have done something a little sorry. Maybe next time I see you, I'll turn it off...

By the way, I haven't seen Mr. Marpink since, because he keeps his promise to me that he won't step into Red Gard territory.

The forest village was completely peaceful because he could no longer send anyone he hired to the forest village. The Knights seem to be taking their time. Yeah, they're better off on their own!
