Chapter 22 – brought to you by Caarlos Marruedo Garcia Many thanks and enjoy!
As ere suddenly surrounded, Kawazu-san was the only one who didn’t have a change in expression His confident attitude didn’t crumble as we faced the beautiful fairies that appeared
As forout
By the looks of it, it won’t be strange if a spear or an arrow co
I don’t think I’ll die but, the fact that the tips of those weapons are aimed at me is quite scary That’s just the instinct of animals
And above anything, the ice-cold s
“It seeht to the point, should I take it that you are aware of the current situation?”
“…… we shall not yield to threats Though I don’t know for what purpose you have come, leave at once”
As expected, our arrival is not welcomed by these fairies
I was silently watching e’re gonna do next It seeh appearance
As if the wind carried soood news, Kawazu-san revealed a bold smile
In a frog’a way
“Hm, that is splendid However, if you accept our request, I think that it would quite beneficial instead of harmful”
“What do you mean?”
The high and , but Kawazu-san didn’t mind and said,
“We would like you to let us live here”
What are you saying, oh Kawazu-san
I don’t want to live in this kind of dangerous place
It seeness, but his eyes told me to be quiet I snapped my mouth shut
“Are you serious? Magician”
“Of course We are fugitives to ran away from the human world Even just for a bit, ould like to borrow a place, that’s ant to talk about Of course, it won’t be for free We would provide any kind of assistance that we’re capable of”
“…… that’s quite suspicious If you want land, you can seize it Do you not have the power to do so? If you won’t do it, doesn’t that mean to say that you have other intentions?”
Discreetly, and without changing expressions, the Fairy Queen’s eyes landed on me
So I won’t offend anyone, I think I’ve done nothing at all I’ve only remained silent
“Of course We would like to avoid conflicts If we only assault and plunder, then on’t be any different from beasts We only seek a rational discussion”
“You say such interesting things, a rational discussion with that guy’s ical power?”
The attitude is quite overbearing but when Kawazu-san mildly answered, the Fairy Queen replied with a voice colored with contempt
Kawazu-san was totally treer
damn, Kawazu-san’s patience was just struck
Sure enough, Kawazu-san’s reply promptly came
“…… Hohhohho I can’t i, despite the fact that you gathered this many soldiers?”
“This is only to convey our objective in an easy-to-understandat least this much will make you understand that you’re not welcome?”
Both smiled coldly at each other
The frog and the beauty Contrary to the comical scene, the heaviness in their words could be clearly felt
“……however, depending on your attitude, we don’t necessarily need to act civil now, do we?”
“…… you finally show your true colors, ician But as I said earlier, we have no intention to yield in the face of threats We shall, even if everything goes back to the dust, fight all the way down to the last soldier”
Tensions were running high, I hid my face
Kawazu-san totally looks fired up This is bad no matter how you look at it
“Blatantly threatening……”
“This atuys co”
Even Tonbo-chan turned blue due to the atmosphere What should I do?
I should show some support
However, leaving it like this will surely result in violence
Since there was obviously no choice, we began to fory
“Even if you say that, I ?'”
“Try what thing?”
“…… Like this, maybe we can relax the atuy maintain that murderous aura”
Bla on the air’s tension, Tonbo-chan immediately went on board
“I-I see! So ill you do?”
“Le-let’s see…… how about this?”
While ere sneakily discussing, Kawazu-san and Her Highness’ conflict continued as well And then, Kawazu-san opened hispossible
“Glaring at each other like this will not result in anything How about it? Here’s one, how about you address the one that you areas well”
“Turn it to me then!……but come!”
To tell the truth, there’s no way I’d be fired up for this I want to kill Kawazu-san
I worked with the plan
Tonbo-chan and I nodded to each other, Kawazu-san was confused about us ere weirdly motivated
“Y-yea……”
In response to Kawazu-san’s beckoning, I ht forth the insect container on my hand
The dragonfly(Tonbo-chan) waved her hands and smiled
“…… What are you planning?”
“Well then, here is a handkerchief without tricks or plots……”
“?”
I pulled out a red handkerchief and held it on my other hand
Of course I prepared it with ic
I placed it on the container, then tapped it with er
Continuing, I mysteriously removed the handkerchief, then the Tonbo-chan inside was nowhere to be seen
“Then here it is!”
I h, I made the container in my hands disappear
I grasped the fluttering handkerchief, then brought it over my head to present it
Pon!
With a popping sound, the handkerchief disappeared into a smoke
There was a sound of fanfare for some reason, and within the smoke appeared……
“T-tada!”
Abovewith both of her arms raised
An illusion without tricks or plots
Everything was done with actual ic anyway
Made a handkerchief with ot rid of the cage and from there, finally, I ic
The smoke and fanfare were just some extra flourish
Now then, I observed the audience’s enthusiasm, and from their expression, I think failed splendidly
“……”
A hurtful silence greeted us
This is merciless
I felt my back run cold as I sweated profusely
“…… you said they would like it! You said they’d be pleased!’
The dragonfly coe burn was on me
“…… No good! It was totally no good!” (T)
“…… Read the situation! What were you doing!” (K)
“…… I wasn’t able to bear with it! That heavy atmosphere was too much!”
“…… even so, as up with that!”
As the three of us screamed at each other, I peaked at the fairies
My instant ic show had an unexpected reaction
“What’s that? How ics did you perform?”
“It’s a ic that I’ve never seen before……”
“Just that , but did you subject everyone to an illusion……”
O-oh h it wasn’t the reception that I expected, unease seeh the crowd of soldiers at the back
“It see?”
“…… Y-yea Oh my, this is indeed”
It seehed to clear h Kawazu-san fixed his attitude and we followed suit
Even the Fairy Queen must’ve realized the unease of her subordinates She closed her eyes for bit, then sighed in resignation She opened her mouth to say,
“…… Understood If he wishes it, he can live her However, what about you?”
She pointed a finger at Kawazu-san
Kawazu-san was dismayed by the unexpected development
“What about me?”
“That’s right That was indeed ic that we cannot replicate It also seems that he is also acquainted with my people, I’ve no coe”
“…… oh, show you my abilities? I am this person’s companion, you know?”
