Chapter 527: # 527 Parent-Child Distance, and Diorama.
âHmm⊠Itâs hardâŠ..â
âWhat do you want?
It seems that Lindsey, who happened to be knitting on the side, heard Potsli and my voice leak.
Well, thereâs nothing else to hide.
âItâs been a while.â
âLong gone? Anything wrong?
âNo, the other way around. Thereâs nothingâŠâ
Somehow, compared to other children, I canât figure it out. Itâs not that much with Yumina, but it feels like someone elseâs manners when it comes to me.
âI donât know if itâs because the boy is sticky to his fatherâŠ..â
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 didnât know you had such a problem with your son, who had the same name as your grandfather. I donât know about life.
âWhy donât you play with me? It was written in the book that children and parents play catch balls on Earth.â
âCatch ballsâŠ.â
Itâs good to play the catch ball itself⊠So? What do you want to talk about? How have you been? Because itâs been a long time, âWhat do you think? Nothing in particular? I think it will be returned with vegetables.
I donât know much about a long time ago, do I? [M] Like your favorite food or hobby. Normally, youâll find out as you grow up, but I donât know because my son came all the way hereâŠ
Do I have to know all about him first? All right, letâs ask the other sisters today.
â â â
âIs this your favorite dish for a long time? Thatâs right⊠I wonder if itâs coldâ Hiyako âor Chikuzen stew. Ah, I also like the sucking of pine mushrooms.â
âItâs 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, isnât that your favorite dish? Well, itâs an image.
We go to the table regardless of whether we are Japanese or Western, but basically because I like rice, it is often Japanese food.
When I think about it, I donât know if Iâve liked it for a long time⊠Arenât kids usually hamburgers or curry?
âOn the contrary, what food do you dislike?
âNo. Heâll eat everything quietly. Ah, I donât like local Zenous cuisine or things that taste too strong.â
Zenousâs local cuisine⊠is that it? Iâve eaten it once, but there was something in the purple soup. It was just a smell. I donât know, but it tasted like a dry battery, for example.
You canât just clean it up with a âI donât like it.â If you finish eating, your life will be at stake.
In the meantime, thank Arcia and weâll go to Elna. Because I was close to my age and thought I might know something. Linnetâs closer, isnât she? Sheâs⊠kind of rough, so thereâs a chance she wonât 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. Iâm 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.
âWhat do you like for a long timeâŠ? I like animals. I talk to cats a lot.â
âHuh? Can you talk to a cat for a long time?
You donât think I can do that? Was there such a thing in Everlasting Magic Eyes? I think there was something about having animals obey.
âYeah, 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.â
What, my son, the king of cats?
No, because the amber is like the king of cats, is the amber the kingâs superior to the cat for a long time? Emperor Cat?
After all, Iâm the owner of AmberâŠ
âI used to talk to birdsâŠâ
âAh, thatâs a red ballâŠâ
Cats and birds are eyes and ears in Brunhilde. Everything they saw and heard was passed 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 Knightsâ Lock and tell them that something has happened.
âDo you like animals for a long timeâŠ.â
âDo you like animals or do you like talking to them?
âDo you like talking? It didnât look like thatâŠ.â
Itâs a bit subtle that you like to talk to animals⊠No, itâs fine, right? I donât think I hate humans.
âTo make Brunhilde better, itâs important to look at it from an animalâs point of view. Because I know the details that humans donât realize. Thatâs whatâs gonna help your dads.â
âThatâs a good boy!
Damn, tears are coming out. Turn up and hold your eyes. Youâre still a little girl, and you act like a parent⊠what a child! Thatâs me and Yuminaâs sonâŠ!
âShut up⊠Whatâs all this noise?â
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.
âMother?
âItâs been a long time, but Elna is cute and kind. Iâm still studying for this country.â
âWhat? 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 âIntroductory Edition,â but itâs not something that kids would be happy to read.
âWow, 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 relationshipâŠ.â
âThatâs a good boy!
âIsnât that right!?
Else answers my screams. [M] I stroked Elsaâs head, which was hugged even more by Else. Heâs a really nice kid. Perhaps Erna will take care of Brunhilde in the future.
Ah, no, youâre leaving this country when you go to your daughter-in-lawâŠ? Ah, Iâm 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.
â â â
âHey, how you doing?
âWhat do you mean? Nothing has changed.â
Damn 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 Iâve been home-run with the ball I threw at you.
The game is played by two teams in our shopping district. Guests are sparse because itâs 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. Thatâs why people who like baseball come together and play games on weekdays like today. And people who are free to watch it. Itâs 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.
âEr, is there anything inconvenient about it?
âEspecially. I donât think itâs a problem. Ah, I hit it.â
Ugh⊠There is no island to follow. After watching the game calmlyâŠ.
Kh, donât pull back here. We must have more and more conversations.
âAh⊠is there anything like a hobby in a long time?
âHobbies? Well, thereâs nothing wrong with itâŠ.â
Oh, what do you got? I donât have such a hobby either. Speaking of which, I watch music and movies. Heâs my son, and he could have the same hobbies, right? If you have the same hobby, the story may be exciting.
âMy hobby⊠I like modeling.â
Yes?
Is that a plastic model, a diorama, something like that?
âYes, I made it for a change of mood. Um, this is how it works.â
Kudo took his phone out of his pocket and showed me the photo album.
There are sailboats lined up in the harbor, and Iâm about to leaveâŠ. hmm? I feel a bit uncomfortable⊠Wait a minute!? Is this a crop!?
âEh, this is a model!?
âYes, thatâs right. I made it a year ago.â
A year ago, you were five years old!? At your age, youâre 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 itâs a professional modelerâs work, theyâre going to believe it.
No, Iâve never seen a Promodelerâs work before, so I canât compare it.
âSome parts were made with magic tools.â
I heard that many of the magic tools used in this work were made by Kuhn.
I donât know, but sometimes they use electric things to make actual geollamas and plastic models, and that might be natural. I think itâs better to use that technology for a long time.
When I tell you that,
âReally? Father can make the same thing with Modeling, right?
âNo, my techniqueâŠ..â
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. Itâs not cheating or anything. It is recognized as the personâs ability.
I do think it was better than when I started using Modeling , but as a pure technology, I donât think itâs as good as the geollama of a long time ago.
You can do the same thing in Babylonâs âWorkshopâ, but itâs obvious, but it doesnât feel like itâs handmadeâŠ
But itâs really well made. I wonder if you can win a grand prize if you put it in the Earthâs geollama contest.
âAh, yes.â
I remembered and projected an image I searched for in âDioramaâ from my phone a long time ago. Various diorama images are floating in the air.
âWow! Youâre making so much detail! Wow, this submerged town is interestingâŠ!
Itâs been a long time since I got to the screen with a smile. I feel like Iâve never seen a childish side before. No, I made a plastic model when I was a kid. It wasnât such a genuine one, it wasnât colored, it was just assembled.
âYou havenât made it since youâve been here?
âAh⊠Iâve been busy a lot⊠It takes a lot of materials and tools to make it.â
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, letâs gather the materials.
âEh? No, itâs quite a hassle. Some are only far away, and some rare speciesâŠ..â
âItâs okay, itâs okay. You canât use Gate or Search .â
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?
âAll right, letâs hurry up. Letâs go!
âNo, butâŠâ
Grasping the long-distant hand of reluctance, I opened the [gate] and jumped from a small stand to the Holy King Arent.
â â â
The art shop of the Holy Kingâs 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 donât want to be made of half-way things. So donât hesitate to buy it.
When I said that, it seemed that I was finally convinced.
âSo, what do we make?
âEh? Ah, well, thatâs right⊠What about our castle?
Brunhilde Castle.
I said in agony that I hadnât 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. Dioramaâs 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.
âAdhesive slime body fluids, cushion turtle armor, Eldertrent skinâŠ.?
I donât know what it is used for, but it seems necessary anyway.
For now, send Long Distance to Babylonâs âtreasure troveâ 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 cushion turtle shells were out of stock, so I searched directly for them and hunted them.
I donât need anything but Kola, so Iâll 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!?
âUm, I brought the ingredientsâŠ.â
âOh, leave it there.â
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 cushion turtle shells 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.
âWhen I came to call for dinner, I was surprised that I was making something like this. This kid had such a hobby.â
âItâs the first time Iâve heard of it. The level of hobbies is too high.â
Itâs been a long time since Iâve had a fever in the production of dioramas, and since I havenât eaten in a long time, I asked Arcia to make rice balls and sandwiches that I could eat while I was working, and they were carried to my room.
If itâs true, I might as well take you to the dining room, but I donât mind if you eat breakfast and properly stitch up your dinner.
âOnce you start concentrating, it wonât stop. If we donât stop him in the right place, weâll stay up all night.â
When I heard Freyâs words, I couldnât see it, so I forced him to stop at ten oâclock. 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 youâre doing well⊠I didnât expect that sponge I cut to become a leaf or a shrub. [M]
This grass on the ground looks real⊠is it a real plant? Moss? Iâm 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 finishing it. [M]
â â â
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 glass cases. Iâm 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 weâve made for a long time.
âWow, itâs made to the details!
âWow⊠Your Majesty the King and the Queen.â
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 Louâs 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 glass case like a plate to find themselves.
Speak to the producerâs son standing next to him as he looks at it.
âYouâve made a lot of detail.â
âBecause Iâm obsessed with going there. I wish I could create my own style while making the details look real.â
Are you particular? I think itâs important for the maker, but I think itâs too soon to make everyone in the castle.
Well, Iâm glad everyone is happy.
âWill you teach me how to make it again?
âHuh? But isnât my father [modeling]?
âI want to make it without magic. Like a long time ago.â
â⊠as long as itâs me.â
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. Iâm getting a little excited.
With that in mind, I gently stroked the head of a good son. [M]
