The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

"So, what were you thinking?"

While holding each cup of tea that Lyra brewed at the inn's facilities, I cuddled up on the sofa and resumed my conversation....... Mr. Rugulos said, "It's narrow. It's hot. What's wrong with these guys? They look like 'but they don't leave, so I guess they don't hate it.

"... I've been thinking about you, uncle"

And Mr. Rugulos, you've given up a lot. That's how you started talking to me.

You mean Agent?

"Oh, yes.... well, I've known them since I was a child. This doesn't mean I don't think about it."

Mr. Rugulos said that, with an unusual, slightly sad, hurtful look on his face.

"Well, you're a child of the family, right?" So, Agent-san is the head of the main house... well, he's a relative's child, so he's involved. "

"That's right, and among the young members of the Argent clan, I was showing off one or two stupid talents." My uncle also had a special eye on me. "

I think it's amazing that Mr. Rugulos can say that he is taking such a thing by himself. Yeah. I don't hate it. It's like this.

"... if anything, your uncle even looked at me more than his own child." Now I think it might have been my idea. "

"No... I don't know. I listened to the story of the Agent's family, but I've heard the story of the Agent himself, and I hardly ever heard the story of his son." In other words, you're a person who doesn't want to be rumored, right? "

When Faye said that, Mr. Ruggieros nodded, "Exactly."

"I've often been rumored about that."

"Ah, yes. I heard a lot about you at school." He's the son of an Agent's family. "

"I've heard rumors about you." Redgard's second son is incompetent. "

... he looked a little uncomfortable with Faye. Unusual. No, but I think that's what this looks like. I thought it was a bit terrible, so I wrapped around Mr. Rugulos' thighs.

"... well, what is that?" I got off on the wrong foot, but the point is... I was in a bit of a special position in the Argent clan. ”

As for Mr. Rugulos, he seemed to think, "I shouldn't have said it." He wandered his gaze awkwardly and turned back to his conversation. Apologize later.

"I am proud to have the ability. But I was born into a family. I shouldn't have been at the forefront of the Argent family since there was a trail in the main house.... but your uncle was like that. I've been telling you that it's a pity that you don't have the ability to move."

Is that why you're calling yourself a brave man?

"Yeah, that's right."

Rugulos nodded a little relieved that Faye was open-minded... and sighed.

"... it is true that only the spouse of the split house can do this. I'm not the next president, so if I die, it won't hurt."

"That's... no, it's nothing." The nobility has that kind of thing. "

Lila pinched her mouth a bit, but she stopped.... I don't think it's anymore that Mr. Rugulos is going to die, but, well, I already know that they're working with their own values.

"That's how I became a 'brave man'." It's your uncle's certification. Without any problems, I acted as a brave man and made the position of the Argent family a cornerstone... either to separate it from the royal family or to become a puppet of the royal family. As a tactic... well, it's a common story. Marriage between a hero and a princess shouldn't be so strange. "

"Ehhhh, really!? You wanted to marry Princess Rage!? Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!”

"Shut up."

When Faye seemed to be completely out of her mind just now, Mr. Ruguloth's face was dazzled. Well, I know it's noisy when it gets noisy right next door. But I feel like making a scene, too!

"... don't get me wrong." What I am talking about is marriage as a political strategy. I will answer that if I am asked if it is favorable, I will not answer. In the first place, there was no need to marry the third princess. Even the 2nd Princess was fine with anything, whether it was a collateral or not. "

”Wow... I guess it was funny that you and Princess Raj weren't going to get married... no, I was married”

"I can imagine Mr. Rugulos laying on Princess Rage's ass somehow."

"I want to draw."

... Mr. Rugulos's face turned dazzling, probably because our reaction was a reaction to the excuse. Well, you say a lot of rude things to people, so I think it's nice to get a little rude for that.

"...... I missed the point again."

Now, after all the talk about "how Mr. Rugulos is laid on his ass", we were brought back to Mr. Rugulos. I'm sorry. I'm very excited.

"Well... as for me, it seems that there is still an indivisible part of my uncle."

I see. Well, that's right.

I knew that it would take a lot of courage for Mr. Rugulos to speak. Faye nodded while turning her arm around Mr. Rugulos' shoulder, and Lila poured tea into Mr. Rugulos' cup. I could do very little, but for now, I would listen.

"Of course, if I were to ask what you think of your uncle now, it would be 'nothing but feelings for traitors'." It was a very light discard. "

Saying something a little strange, Mr. Rugulos said thank you for the tea and then started drinking tea instead... and then made a complicated face again.

"But... at least until then, you were looking at me like a real child... or even more than a real child." I've been thinking about it since I was a child, so... "

"Well, that's right." I really trusted Agent, so I was working with him. "

"... that's right."

Ms. Rugulos said that and sighed smallly.

"It's a funny story. He did it to prove that he only thinks of me as a discard pawn." Nevertheless...... I can't cut it off anyway. It's only recently that I noticed that it seems to be partitioning. ”

And then, looking at me and Lila, and looking at Faye on the other side...... Mr. Rugulos let out a deep sigh.

"... it seems that I've gone crazy since I came to Sorella"

In other words, Mr. Rugulos has become forest-like.

"Ahh, I've been thinking about it lately. You're becoming a little forest-like, aren't you?"

That's right. On occasion, my expression got a little softer, so I felt like it.

All three of us were convinced. Besides, Mr. Rugulos had a disagreeable face, but it was. You're already feeling a lot like a forest.

"... as far as I'm concerned, I don't regret coming to Soleila at all."

"Well, don't say that." That's good, isn't it? ”

While saying so, Faye put her arms around Mr. Rugulos's shoulders and was happy.

"Come to Soleila and meet us." I ate something delicious, relaxed... and you ended up living in the woods! It wasn't all bad! "

"... that's arrogant, Red Gard." Why did I meet you guys when I said "I'm glad"? "

"Because that's right, it's fun to be with us, right?"

Gurglingly, Fei pushed Mr. Lugurros. Mr. Rugulos said, "It's very narrow! 'I complained, but on the other side I refrained. On the sofa where I'm groping, pushing and pushing like a manju.

After a while of pressing and enjoying the manju, I suddenly noticed something and looked up at Mr. Rugulos' face.

"Hey, Luigulos. I'm sure it's not because you've become weaker or anything like that that, that's because I've learned a lot of new things in Solaire and the resolution of the world you can see has improved."

When I said that, Mr. Rugulos looked down at me with a strange look on his face...

"...... What is udon?"

"Ah, that's like Lao Crescent..." No, I don't think so. Uh, commentary, commentary.

Um, you can see the world in more detail, right?

After explaining the word resolution very briefly, Mr. Rugulos nodded a little and made a face that looked like a continuation. I will continue because it is a problem.

"I can't see anything I don't know. If you don't know the name of a weed, it's just a weed, but as soon as you know the name, each one of the weeds becomes a pheasant or an american pheasant, and when you say birds, it's just a small bird that becomes a spruce, an onion or a beetle."

Even though it's for the teacher. But that's true. That feeling that the world will expand if you know its existence. If you have the knowledge of painting, you will see the painting in more detail, and if you have the knowledge of sculpture, you will see the sculpture in more detail...

"Well, that's why... I wonder if Mr. Rugulos can see how people feel by talking to people more often in Soleila." I thought so, but... how about that? "

When I asked Mr. Rugulos, he replied with a sinister face...

"... I can't read my thoughts anymore. I feel like I'm dull, I feel like I'm dull... I feel that way. Since I came to Soleila a little bit, yes."

Gu, Gu Dun.... that's tough. No, but I don't care how stupid it is. Rather, from the time she came to Soleila, Ms. Rugulos had become a little rounded, or, uh...

"Hey, you know, maybe it's a little ahead of your abilities."

When I was in trouble, Lila clasped her words.

"I practice painting, and sometimes I get" "I'm not good at painting." "" I mean, it's like my arm dropped... um, I can't explain it well. "

Yeah, I know that, too. Sometimes it gets worse.

"But that doesn't mean that the painting is not bad, but that the ability to see pictures has grown a little ahead of the ability to paint pictures." Mom told me. "

Lila smiled and said so, staring at Mr. Rugulos....... Mr. Rugulos is nodding quietly. For some reason, it seems that Mr. Rugulos is willing to listen to Lila's words honestly.

"If you don't have the ability to see pictures, you don't look so bad in your paintings. But that's not really the case. So... well, I guess that's a good thing. The main thing is that I'm growing up to feel like I'm" getting worse "."

Is that it?

“Yeah, for me. I don't know what it's like for you, though."

Mr. Rugulos drinks a cup of tea while saying what he's capable of.... I knew it. Listen to Lila honestly... Oh, isn't that what she's doing on the board as a summoning beast?!

"... well, maybe if I went to see Mr. Agent, I'd have a different impression."

"... that's right."

In the end, Mr. Rugulos seemed to have calmed down somehow, sank into the sofa while drinking tea, and took a long breath.

Tomorrow, I'm looking forward to it.

"I'm looking forward to it. It's totally refreshing..."

"But, don't you think it's better that way?" Rather than being nervous, I'm looking forward to it! I thought it would be better, a lot of things. "

"...... You guys are so energetic!"

That's right. We're having a good time!... well, it looks like Mr. Rugulos is nervous. I think we're going to be a little bit of a balancing act. How about that?
