Chapter 527
"Hmm... It"s hard....."
"What do you want?
It seems that Lindsey, who happened to be knitting on the side, heard Potsli and my voice leak.
Well, there"s nothing else to hide.
"It"s been a while."
"Long gone? Anything wrong?
"No, the other way around. There"s nothing..."
Somehow, compared to other children, I can"t figure it out. It"s not that much with Yumina, but it feels like someone else"s manners when it comes to me.
"I don"t know if it"s because the boy is sticky to his father....."
Well, yeah.
I wonder what happened to me. [M] When I was a kid, my parents were busy together, and my grandfather mostly played with me.
I didn"t know you had such a problem with your son, who had the same name as your grandfather. I don"t know about life.
"Why don"t you play with me? It was written in the book that children and parents play catch b.a.l.l.s on Earth."
"Catch b.a.l.l.s...."
It"s good to play the catch ball itself... So? What do you want to talk about? How have you been? Because it"s been a long time, "What do you think? Nothing in particular? I think it will be returned with vegetables.
I don"t know much about a long time ago, do I? [M] Like your favorite food or hobby. Normally, you"ll find out as you grow up, but I don"t know because my son came all the way here...
Do I have to know all about him first? All right, let"s ask the other sisters today.
◇ ◇ ◇
"Is this your favorite dish for a long time? That"s right... I wonder if it"s cold" Hiyako "or Chikuzen stew. Ah, I also like the sucking of pine mushrooms."
"It"s disgusting!
In the meantime, when I asked Arcia about her favorite cuisine for a long time, she replied that she was almost childless.
In other words, isn"t that your favorite dish? Well, it"s an image.
We go to the table regardless of whether we are j.a.panese or Western, but basically because I like rice, it is often j.a.panese food.
When I think about it, I don"t know if I"ve liked it for a long time... Aren"t kids usually hamburgers or curry?
"On the contrary, what food do you dislike?
"No. He"ll eat everything quietly. Ah, I don"t like local Zenous cuisine or things that taste too strong."
Zenous"s local cuisine... is that it? I"ve eaten it once, but there was something in the purple soup. It was just a smell. I don"t know, but it tasted like a dry battery, for example.
You can"t just clean it up with a "I don"t like it." If you finish eating, your life will be at stake.
In the meantime, thank Arcia and we"ll go to Elna. Because I was close to my age and thought I might know something. Linnet"s closer, isn"t she? She"s... kind of rough, so there"s a chance she won"t be able to communicate our intentions.
Elna was reading a book on a window bench in the castle. Next to that, Else, her mother, is sleeping in the window with the book open. I"m just a little sad to sleep as a wife. Elna is reading a book without worrying.
I was reading a book with Elna, but she fell asleep.
"What do you like for a long time...? I like animals. I talk to cats a lot."
"Huh? Can you talk to a cat for a long time?
You don"t think I can do that? Was there such a thing in Everlasting Magic Eyes? I think there was something about having animals obey.
"Yeah, Amber can interpret for me. I used simple signals to communicate with my cats. The future of Brunhilde was full of cats, but most cats knew it was a long time."
What, my son, the king of cats?
No, because the amber is like the king of cats, is the amber the king"s superior to the cat for a long time? Emperor Cat?
After all, I"m the owner of Amber...
"I used to talk to birds..."
"Ah, that"s a red ball..."
Cats and birds are eyes and ears in Brunhilde. Everything they saw and heard was pa.s.sed on to Amber and Red Ball, from where information went up to Prime Minister Takasaka, Knight Commander Rain, and Intelligence Director Tsubaki.
Of course, basically, we only get people involved in suspicious people and crime. Even in sudden incidents and accidents, cats and birds run to the Knights" Lock and tell them that something has happened.
"Do you like animals for a long time...."
"Do you like animals or do you like talking to them?
"Do you like talking? It didn"t look like that...."
It"s a bit subtle that you like to talk to animals... No, it"s fine, right? I don"t think I hate humans.
"To make Brunhilde better, it"s important to look at it from an animal"s point of view. Because I know the details that humans don"t realize. That"s what"s gonna help your dads."
"That"s a good boy!
d.a.m.n, tears are coming out. Turn up and hold your eyes. You"re still a little girl, and you act like a parent... what a child! That"s me and Yumina"s son...!
"Shut up... What"s all this noise?"
Else seems to have broken out of my mind. [M] When she told Erna that she had heard about it for a long time, Else, who still had a slightly sleepy eye, hugged Erna.
"Mother?
"It"s been a long time, but Elna is cute and kind. I"m still studying for this country."
"What? Really?
When I looked at the book that Elna had on television a little bit, I found that the Library fam had translated the medical specialty that Lean had brought home from Earth into this language.
It says something like "Introductory Edition," but it"s not something that kids would be happy to read.
"Wow, I wish I could help my father and mother with something... I can use recovery magic and Recovery , so I wonder if I can help you with the medical relations.h.i.+p...."
"That"s a good boy!
"Isn"t that right!?
Else answers my screams. [M] I stroked Elsa"s head, which was hugged even more by Else. He"s a really nice kid. Perhaps Erna will take care of Brunhilde in the future.
Ah, no, you"re leaving this country when you go to your daughter-in-law...? Ah, I"m going to cry.
After a glimpse of the future, I thanked Elna to deceive her and left. [M]
Do you want to talk to him anyway? You may want to go somewhere with me.
◇ ◇ ◇
"Hey, how you doing?
"What do you mean? Nothing has changed."
d.a.m.n it! They gave it back with vegetables!
Calling Kudo to the baseball stadium and saying something exciting while watching the game responded as expected.
I feel like I"ve been home-run with the ball I threw at you.
The game is played by two teams in our shopping district. Guests are spa.r.s.e because it"s not a game between the Knights of the Nation on weekdays. In fact, the audience seat we are sitting on, Stand, is almost empty.
Basically anyone can use our baseball stadium as long as they pay the user fee. That"s why people who like baseball come together and play games on weekdays like today. And people who are free to watch it. It"s free to watch.
I tried to talk in such a way that no one would get in the way, but I stumbled at first sight and desperately thought about what to do after that.
"Er, is there anything inconvenient about it?
"Especially. I don"t think it"s a problem. Ah, I hit it."
Ugh... There is no island to follow. After watching the game calmly....
Kh, don"t pull back here. We must have more and more conversations.
"Ah... is there anything like a hobby in a long time?
"Hobbies? Well, there"s nothing wrong with it...."
Oh, what do you got? I don"t have such a hobby either. Speaking of which, I watch music and movies. He"s my son, and he could have the same hobbies, right? If you have the same hobby, the story may be exciting.
"My hobby... I like modeling."
Yes?
Is that a plastic model, a diorama, something like that?
"Yes, I made it for a change of mood. Um, this is how it works."
Kudo took his phone out of his pocket and showed me the photo alb.u.m.
There are sailboats lined up in the harbor, and I"m about to leave.... hmm? I feel a bit uncomfortable... Wait a minute!? Is this a crop!?
"Eh, this is a model!?
"Yes, that"s right. I made it a year ago."
A year ago, you were five years old!? At your age, you"re making this level of stuff!?
The boats leaving the port, the wavering seas, and the people loading and unloading at the docks look real. Even if they say it"s a professional modeler"s work, they"re going to believe it.
No, I"ve never seen a Promodeler"s work before, so I can"t compare it.
"Some parts were made with magic tools."
I heard that many of the magic tools used in this work were made by Kuhn.
I don"t know, but sometimes they use electric things to make actual geollamas and plastic models, and that might be natural. I think it"s better to use that technology for a long time.
When I tell you that,
"Really? Father can make the same thing with Modeling, right?
"No, my technique....."
The words of a long time go by without thinking. The differences in consciousness here and there are difficult to fill.
Since there is no magic on earth, the skill acquired is his strength. If you do it magically, it feels like a cheat.
But for a man who lives in this world, magic is also his power, and it is his technology that manipulates it. It"s not cheating or anything. It is recognized as the person"s ability.
I do think it was better than when I started using Modeling , but as a pure technology, I don"t think it"s as good as the geollama of a long time ago.
You can do the same thing in Babylon"s "Workshop", but it"s obvious, but it doesn"t feel like it"s handmade...
But it"s really well made. I wonder if you can win a grand prize if you put it in the Earth"s geollama contest.
"Ah, yes."
I remembered and projected an image I searched for in "Diorama" from my phone a long time ago. Various diorama images are floating in the air.
"Wow! You"re making so much detail! Wow, this submerged town is interesting...!
It"s been a long time since I got to the screen with a smile. I feel like I"ve never seen a childish side before. No, I made a plastic model when I was a kid. It wasn"t such a genuine one, it wasn"t colored, it was just a.s.sembled.
"You haven"t made it since you"ve been here?
"Ah... I"ve been busy a lot... It takes a lot of materials and tools to make it."
They said they needed some kind of resin that could be taken from a tree beast or some kind of adhesive that could be taken from a special slime. There are also other tools such as brushes and helmets.
It seems he left everything he had in his castle room in the future.
All right, let"s gather the materials.
"Eh? No, it"s quite a ha.s.sle. Some are only far away, and some rare species....."
"It"s okay, it"s okay. You can"t use Gate or Search ."
I think it was in Dr. Kura that the tools were similar.
If we collect the rest of the material, we can get to work, right? Oh, do you need paint or something? It seems that spiritual paintings are often painted by the Holy King Allent, so there are a lot of painting materials, right?
"All right, let"s hurry up. Let"s go!
"No, but..."
Grasping the long-distant hand of reluctance, I opened the [gate] and jumped from a small stand to the Holy King Arent.
◇ ◇ ◇
The art shop of the Holy King"s Arent had a wonderful selection of brushes and paints of all kinds and subtle shades.
I said I could buy anything for a long time, but it seemed that there was still some reluctance, so I decided to ask for a diorama to make.
I mean, this is work. I don"t want to be made of half-way things. So don"t hesitate to buy it.
When I said that, it seemed that I was finally convinced.
"So, what do we make?
"Eh? Ah, well, that"s right... What about our castle?
Brunhilde Castle.
I said in agony that I hadn"t decided, but as soon as I nodded for a long time, I began to put the painting materials into the basket that was in the store.
Put the products in one after the other without hesitation. Diorama"s blueprints are probably already in his head.
After I bought a lot at the art store, I received an e-mail from a long time ago with a note on my phone.
"Adhesive slime body fluids, cus.h.i.+on turtle armor, Eldertrent skin....?
I don"t know what it is used for, but it seems necessary anyway.
For now, send Long Distance to Babylon"s "treasure trove" and ask his keeper, Parscher, to find the tools he needs.
In the meantime, I decided to go around the Adventurer Guild and gather the materials I needed for a long time. Unfortunately, only the cus.h.i.+on turtle sh.e.l.ls were out of stock, so I searched directly for them and hunted them.
I don"t need anything but Kola, so I"ll sell your materials.
But this armor is soft. Looks like a low-rebound sponge. It seems to be strong against damage from the strike system. It was slashed and defeated.
Returning to the castle, there was already a tatami mat mat base in the middle of the room that had been rising for a long time. Fast!?
"Um, I brought the ingredients...."
"Oh, leave it there."
For a long time, I was wearing a dust mask and goggle-like objects, and I was sharpening the base material with magical tools like grinder. Probably building the ground.
I put the collected materials in the corner of the room and watch the work for a long time. [M]
When asked if there was anything I could do to help in the long run, I was asked to soak and dry the cus.h.i.+on turtle sh.e.l.ls in various green paints and cut them into fine pieces.
I moved to the courtyard because it would get in the way here, and when I returned from the work I was told, Kudo had already made roads and moats around the castle.
Ah, Mr. Winter Night
Jumina was sitting on a sofa in a long-distance room. There is also an amber next to it.
"When I came to call for dinner, I was surprised that I was making something like this. This kid had such a hobby."
"It"s the first time I"ve heard of it. The level of hobbies is too high."
It"s been a long time since I"ve had a fever in the production of dioramas, and since I haven"t eaten in a long time, I asked Arcia to make rice b.a.l.l.s and sandwiches that I could eat while I was working, and they were carried to my room.
If it"s true, I might as well take you to the dining room, but I don"t mind if you eat breakfast and properly st.i.tch up your dinner.
"Once you start concentrating, it won"t stop. If we don"t stop him in the right place, we"ll stay up all night."
When I heard Frey"s words, I couldn"t see it, so I forced him to stop at ten o"clock. Perhaps this ability to concentrate so much has created this strength.
In the meantime, I decided to let Jumina take me to the next bedroom and put me to bed. The rest is in the morning.
Dioramas are already taking shape roughly. Normally, the time-consuming process is shortened by magic.
But you"re doing well... I didn"t expect that sponge I cut to become a leaf or a shrub. [M]
This gra.s.s on the ground looks real... is it a real plant? Moss? I"m not sure.
I want to touch it, but if it is broken, I will be angry for a long time, so I will stop it.
I left the room looking forward to finis.h.i.+ng it. [M]
◇ ◇ ◇
When you remove the cloth that was hanging on you, Oops, people around you will hear your exclamation.
The finished Diorama of Brunhild Castle decided to decorate the castle lobby with gla.s.s cases. I"m showing it today.
The sophisticated geollama I made over time was so wonderful that I thought it would be a waste just to decorate it in the room.
This way everyone who visited can see it.
Everyone is intrigued by the dioramas we"ve made for a long time.
"Wow, it"s made to the details!
"Wow... Your Majesty the King and the Queen."
Yes, we have our miniatures in the diorama. Yae, Hilda, and Else are fighting at the training ground, and Lindsey, Lean, and Cherry Blossom are drinking tea and knitting on the balcony.
Jumina and I were eating lots of Lou"s widened lunches in the courtyard under the cherry blossoms.
Others such as Hana-Love Sisters, Prime Minister Takasaka, and various castle people are arranged everywhere.
Everyone stuck their eyes on the gla.s.s case like a plate to find themselves.
Speak to the producer"s son standing next to him as he looks at it.
"You"ve made a lot of detail."
"Because I"m obsessed with going there. I wish I could create my own style while making the details look real."
Are you particular? I think it"s important for the maker, but I think it"s too soon to make everyone in the castle.
Well, I"m glad everyone is happy.
"Will you teach me how to make it again?
"Huh? But isn"t my father [modeling]?
"I want to make it without magic. Like a long time ago."
"... as long as it"s me."
Long ago nodded with a little light. Has the distance shrunk a bit?
What shall I teach you in a long time? We need to be able to make it out of trees first. Ah, it might be interesting to run a magic train miniature or something.
Or we could expand the castle even further to the castle town. I"m getting a little excited.
With that in mind, I gently stroked the head of a good son. [M]
