The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

Then, Laocles started talking to Faye.

Raocles is taller and probably much older than Faye, and he's powerful because he's a chunk of muscle.

I think Faye is a little taller than Laocles and a little above me, but he's noble, so he's powerful.

... and they both have the same purpose, so there's no quarrel between force and force. So I'm not particularly scared of being caught between them. It's just reliable.

I think I'll make it, but I'm probably very, very blessed.

I'm glad these two are on my side.

"So thogo. I'll talk to the Georens."

The story came together in that place.

You can't go back to the woods, and you can't go out to town, can you? Then I'll put Keri on here. "

"Yeah."

... The point is, if we keep saying no, we're going to officially set up a table for discussion, let it go officially as a request, and we're going to officially say no. Finally, I'll have you write a memoir like "Don't hang out with me again," something like that.

Things won't get better just because you're in trouble with Faye's house like this, and then you should say no properly to her face and face. I want to go back to the woods as soon as I can, so I want to.

"... so this is my biggest problem"

And just as the story came together, Faye looked a little troubled.

"Togo. Are you going to be our hugging painter?

...... yeah. That's right.

At the end of the day, we can't avoid this place, it seems.

"If you will temporarily hold the Redgard family, I can refuse the Geolen family's request on that grounds. Me, my brother, my dad, I can stick my neck in it and we can all do everything we can to make the Georen family crap out of it."

"I don't have to get bumpy..."

"Oh well. Then I'll leave it at about the poke. … and if you don't have a particular contract with the Redgard family, then there are two ways…"

Yeah.

"Either we have a beating with the Redgards and the Georens called 'Which Contracts with Togo', or you say 'I don't like you for now'. If you're going to go in front of me, you're going to have to go through a lot of trouble twice. Then it would be easier if you had a contract with us first."

... right. Yeah, I knew it would happen.

If I had a deal with the Redgards, I could hide behind the Redgards... the Fays. That way, you don't even have to interact directly with the Geolen family. Or you could put pressure on me that I would never hang, or you could protect me in a way that I would never be able to.

... but I don't know what that is... yeah.

"I refuse because I don't like the Redgards, not because I don't like them. I think that's right."

I think I want to do something about this on my own. Even if I refuse, I want to be honest. To some extent. To the best of my ability.

... so I'm going to think with Faye and Laocles.

"Why would I want to say no in the first place?"

"Ooh."

"Because I don't know who they are."

When I said that, Faye did it right. [M]

"I've never met him." The son of the Ziolen family. "

"... uh, well. A squire is only here."

When I answered, both Faye and Laocles nodded.

As far as I'm concerned, it's all caught up there. If you want me to put out a red dragon to be someone's summoner, I want to see that 'someone' before I decide. Depending on who the person is, I would like to decide the answer.

"If someone like Faye is the son of the Geolen family, he thinks he can draw it."

"Are you serious?"

Faye and Laocles look surprised, but they can't help it. I am neutral in the first place.

"... uh, on the other hand, did you draw the Red Dragon because you liked you, you know, me?

"No, I didn't think about that then..."

Think a little about Faye's words, then answer.

"... because Scarlet Dragon would have liked Faye"

"Oh, you, not the Red Dragon, huh?... If you're going to like the Red Dragon, you mean you can draw the Red Dragon on that opponent?

"Yeah."

I think it's important there. It's a dragon that I serve. I want you to be happy. I only want to keep it with a decent person.

"However, if Faye and the others are going to be in trouble if we get the Red Dragon out, I won't"

Well, if you're the kind of person who would make the Red Dragon happy, I don't think you'd use it in a way that would bother the fays...... yeah. It's also possible that people around you are.

"Well... well, I'm in trouble, hey. No, but as far as I'm concerned, um... no, let it out, to another dragon... no, I don't think that's a good idea, yeah..."

... then let's make it another dragon. With the guy who's not red?

"Well, I'll call the Georens. Include your son and set up a table for discussion."

"Yeah."

"Can we have the place? It's your house and everything... you don't like it when something happens. The Spirit might get angry."

"Yeah."

Speaking of which, there's my house. There were spirits in the woods. I've never seen it, but will I be there after all?

"Okay. Well, this one... when it comes to discussing it as a Redgard family, it's going to be about political harassment. Good luck to you alone."

And Laocles.

"... because they don't know what they're gonna do."

And this is me and Laocles. Comfortable.

"Oh, no, Togo, you, could you read the letters?

"... unreadable"

Speaking of which, I was. I can't read. [M] It doesn't make sense if you don't know the authenticity of it, even if you ask them to write a memoir.... I should have studied. Was this one before horseback riding?

"Well... what about Laocles?

"I can read and write all the way through. But my husband would be licked if the slaves were reading letters on his behalf."

"Oh, well. You're not dressed up. It might be troublesome to know that Togo can't read the letters... so should I stay"

"Please"

So I decided to ask Faye to be present as well. He's not as a nobleman, he's simply my... as my best friend. Yeah. That's what I'm asking you to stay with me.

That's how I sent a letter to the Geolens family in my name (and Faye did the proxy).

'I want you to bring the Redgard family with you who want to subpoena the dragon'. "I want you to talk about a dragon summons as a proper request there," he said.

… then, 'The Redgards will not be involved in this because I don't want to let you know about my house'.

Now, after that, I'll see if I can get the dragon out or not.

... If he's as good as Faye, I don't care if he's not a red dragon or if I can give him some other color dragon or something.

But if you're someone who doesn't seem to feel too comfortable, now is the time to say no properly.

A letter came from the Geolene family with such a content as' I understand '. Or, directly, an old squire brought a letter. That's polite.

The date and time were set, and I got a little nervous about the day...

"... what are you doing"

"I'm trying to make the picture compact."

I decided to make use of my last reflection to keep my paintings properly worn.

Last time. When I got caught by the people on the black market over the poacher thing.

At that time, it was painful not to have any painting material. Thanks to this, I decided to paint a dragon with blood on the stone floor......

...... yeah. Actually, the injury then, it hurt quite a bit later. Cut off your arm and bleed, well, I didn't think it was much to do.

So now hold the picture material properly.

First, pencils and erasers. This is, well, this is fine because it's originally compact.

And secondly, it's paint... this made a small compartment for something like a shallow box with a lid and squeezed out a small amount of paint there to make it solid. I feel like this is the kind of cosmetic tool that women use. Though I don't know it very well.

Then, the paint box also holds a water pen, a shortened pencil, and an eraser.

A water pen is a pen that looks like a tube and keeps water in it. When you grip the patterned area tightly, the water stains out of the tip of the brush and you can paint with it.

When I saw it at the painting shop, I thought it was something with an amazing brush. They use it a lot for watercolor pencils and stuff... but they sometimes use it for these 'portable watercolor paint sets' things too.

... and then you can store a few pieces of small pieces of cut paper in a box and you can do it first.

Compact watercolor paint set. Nice inside.

... This was also one of the things I admired in the original world but could not buy because portability is often expensive for performance.

Satisfied.

Now we're ready. It's okay to get caught and put in a jail. And then hide this...

...... yeah.

"Where to hide it"

"Ah? Stash? It's a classic in those shoes."

"Wouldn't they find you if they took off your shoes?"

"If I told you that, if they'd bare me, it'd be the same wherever you put me, wouldn't it?

Hmmm......

Although I was a little lost, I decided to follow Faye's advice and keep it in my shoes.

And for that, they bought me shoes.... I never wore boots other than boots for rain, so I don't feel comfortable about anything.

And finally, the day came. Looking out the window, the luxurious carriage stopped in front of the Redgard family, so me and Laocles, then Faye, bravely stepped out to the front door.

"Thank you very much for having a seat at the meeting today."

I went outside and the old squire I've seen many times was already out of the carriage. And he greeted me, smiled and held my hand. You look happy.

"My husband was delighted..."

And when the servants said so and looked back, they were just about to descend from the carriage.

When the squire opens the place, two people coming out of the carriage come to me, surrounded by escort-like people... and grin, laughing.

"It's Sardo Roe Geolen. I am Lord of the Geolenic Realm"

Is he about the same age as Faye's father? I mean, I'm a little nervous, mostly because you're like my father or someone from around here, but you look like a nobleman.

... and.

"And this is my son, Santos Rado Geolen. I want you to summon the Red Dragon for my son."

Before me, a boy who looks a little older than me stands looking down at me greatly.

He glanced at me, and he... looked like 'You don't seem like a big deal' and gave me a little nasty Kanji grin.

...... yeah.

I had decided to judge as fairly as possible... but in my heart the balance leaned towards' no '.
