Chapter 116 (1/2)

”Well, let's settle down first…”(Mitsuha)

As I attempted to put an end to their quarrel, they realized that they had shown a vulgar dispute unbefitting of an artist in front of their patron candidate, both of them became stiff.

Indeed, ”Giving dreams to patron” is part of the work of the artists who received their a.s.sistance. To give such an ugly show like that, naturally they'll losing image. Of course, they should've understood that themselves. That's why they went stiff.

”… Just kidding! Hahaha, let's stop joking and start the discussion with the Viscount properly, shall we?” (Lortor)

”T, Tha, That's right~! Let's stop our usual play with this much….” (Timid Woman)

Ah~, it's so obvious it's a mess…

”… and that is the case. By all means, please bestow us your patronage… ” (Lortor)

”Please bestow us your patronage…” (Timid Woman)

So, they have arrived at a common front.

Well, I have no problem with it…

They only had their works placed in the same store, so they seem to know each other and became rivals. Both of them couldn't afford living with only sculpting and had a painful underlaying life due to side jobs.

Someday, find a patron and sell your name.

After a long time of dreaming and wishing for that day to come, one day they received the news came from the art shop owner.

[A n.o.ble woman bought everything they had in the store, she said she really liked it]

[The n.o.ble woman was that Prince Shrine Maiden of Thunder]

(Super ultrfamous person has come!!! Himemiko-sama's Purveyor, Himemiko-sama's Favorite, the ultimate golden attraction!!)

(Note: Idk why but author wrote this in brackets, just think of It as the artists delusions)

After that, it seems that he came here in full dash.

And somehow, while he talks about me become his patron as if it's the most natural thing, his rival made her appearance. Far from natural, it is as if he received a fast-straight ball in the gut and become upset thinking that his patron candidate was about to get stolen from him. It seems they are usually gentle mannered. Both of them.

Well, no matter how gentle you were, if your life is at stake, would you able to keep your temper? It's like the slang [It's at the level that even Gandhi would hit someone]
