198 3. Ring storage location

"Wow, that's amazing..."

It looks like you can't take it out.

The basement walls seem to be quite sturdy, with the roots of the trees bare. There are branches of trees stretching out into leaves on the ceiling, but the flowers glowing in between are brightening up.

Ask if the Tiara Rose is closer than I thought it would be.

However, Keith didn't seem to care at all, and while saying, "Is it even locked?", he removed the lock and looked at the book.

"Keith, you should be more polite..."

It's okay. It's a leaf book, so it's easy to repair.

Please don't lick the restoration work, King!!

The librarian opened his eyes wide in response to Keith's words.

Certainly, from the king's point of view, the restoration will be easy. If you put a painful leaf on a tree, the sunlight will grow and the worn-out part will return to a healthy leaf. But! If you don't observe it often, the shape of the leaves will jump or grow in a different direction than expected. It's pretty nervous work. "

"Okay, okay!" I'll handle it politely, so shut up a little bit. "

Keith grinned at Machine Gun Talk, and Tiara Rose sat down on the reading desk chair with a bitter smile...... but she wasn't tall enough because she was a cat.

"It's hard to read."

Aqua!

Aquastide held up the tiara rose and sat on a chair on the reading table with the cat on her lap.

You can read a book on a reading platform.

--It's embarrassing, but I can't help it...!

And I have to!

Tiara Rose touches the book with her meatballs as she's thrilled to learn the secrets of the Fairy King. I'm sure there's something else you'd like to know.

― ― Care must be taken when handling it.

But there he notices.

Tiara Rose turns her head back and looks to Aquastide, who is putting herself on her lap, for help.

... I can't turn the page well with my cat's hands

Although it will flip, it will handle the book clutter, and there is a risk that it will be torn or damaged at worst.

"I'll roll over."

Thank you very much.

Tiara Rose's expression shone and she looked at the book that Aquastide was turning around. Next to the book is a key to the flower that Keith opened.

You have a table of contents. Um... the fairy king was born? ”

For the time being, it doesn't seem to be a problem to read from the beginning.

It was written that when you become a fairy king, you will prepare your own residence and make a ring. And it was important to build a relationship of trust with the fairies that were born.

Speaking of which, I recalled that Keith had also taught the fairies about the ring and how to look at the map.

― ― It's important to tell them what I want to do and talk about common sense with the confectionary fairy.

The tiara rose nodded so much.

The current situation is friendly with the people, and it doesn't seem to have any particular problems---eating a sweets' house, making new ones, or just thinking about sweets... If you leave it alone, it could be a big deal.

"It says here how to make a room with a ring."

Ah, it's true.

It is written that a room will be prepared first and then a ring will be made.

Both tasks had to be carried out with magic power, so the Tiara Rose had to be used. To be honest, I wasn't that good at manipulating magic power.

- Can you do that?

Looking at the book with a strange face, Aquastide's giggling voice came to his ears. And he strokes his forehead like a tickle.

Aqua?

As expected, the Fairy King's power alone is difficult to use.

That's right...

When Aquastide said that, the difficulty rose in Tiara Rose.

But Keith breads all over Tiara Rose's head! and stopped with the sound of clapping hands.

"Let's go to the confectionery house because it's more practical than we think."

The librarian organized the library, so Tiara Rose took Aquastide and Keith and transferred them to the confectionery house. Tiara Rose is being held by Aquastide because she is still in the form of a cat.

Then, the confectionery fairies gathered.

I'm the king ~!

Welcome!

Here's some sweets!

And tea together!

The fairies immediately began to prepare for the tea party, seemingly with great pleasure. Apparently, eating sweets was a greeting for the fairies.

A confectionary fairy from Tiara Rose's confectionery.

Honey pink hair and light blue flower eyes. Dressed in pastry chef uniforms inspired by the sweets they were born in, they each have their own confectionery tools.

The first confectionary fairy was born from a shortcake, followed by cookies, zachtorte, and more.

They are friendly to humans and bless a lot of people. The effect is that the confectionery making will improve, so Marine Forest's confectionery technology will improve even further, and Tiara Rose can't help but enjoy it.

Tiara Rose's eyes glistened, "It's too nice," and she sat down on the high cookie chair that the fairy had prepared for her. Even cats are at a fine height.

This is a confectionery house, so the buildings as well as the furniture are all made of confectionery.

"I thought you were here to make this your own castle."

That's true... but first of all, it's not important to deepen your interaction with the candy fairy!?

"In other words, you want to eat sweets..."

In response to Keith's stunned words, Aquastide laughed, “That's good.”

"It's certainly important to interact with the confectionery fairy, and she's very welcoming." Besides, Keith likes sweets made by fairies, doesn't he? "

"...... I can't help it."

In response to Aquastide's words, Keith came to the table with a blow in his head.

Keith sits in a chair and Aquastide sits next to Tiara Rose. Keith was just across the street.

Confirming that everyone was seated, the fairy came to the forest wagon with sweets.

The wheels are rounded with soft tree branches, and there is a flower lamp at hand. The handle is firmly made of wooden branches.

”Wow, that's cute. But you're not made of sweets... what's wrong with you?”

"That's right, our fairies were making it all up." It was definitely a bargain to get sweets. "

The forest fairies made it for me.

It looks like there was a reward for the treats, but I'd like to thank you again from Tiara Rose. I've been caring for the forest fairy since my fiancé's time in Marine Forest.

Nnhhh! A sweet full course for the king!

Fruit jellies, macaroons, scones, cakes, and crème brulée were lined up in front of everyone.

There are small flowers in the fruit jelly with cut apples, it's like a flower field. The macaron will have a rich flavor with chocolate on the lower part of the dough. The scones are made from Earl Grey tea leaves, which smell good, and the cake is a short cake made with plenty of Marine Forest specialty oysters on the arm of a confectionery fairy. Crème brulee has a shiny surface and I want to try crushing it with a spoon as soon as possible.

Wow, amazing, amazing! You also use forest flowers. It looks and feels gorgeous. "

Tiara Rose looks at the full course of the sweets while getting on the table. Not only does it smell very delicious, but it also makes you look captive.

- That's a sweet fairy!

When tea time begins happily, Keith, who was unchaste at first, also tastes delicious. On the contrary, I am asking for a change. Apparently, I really liked the fairy treats.

Aquastide is also eating jelly while saying, "You look beautiful."

Speaking of tiara roses, I couldn't eat sweets as well as a cat, so I went back to the human figure and got a normal-sized cookie chair.

Tiara Rose was thinking of bringing Lucia Rose, Shtilka, and Shtilio, and the confectionery fairy looked at Tiara Rose.

What can I do for you?

"That's right!" I'm totally addicted to sweets... "

Tiara Rose wipes her mouth and looks at the confectionery fairies.

"I want to create a room in the sweets' house where the ring will be installed."... do you mind? "

Ring?

Ah, that's what I heard from the forest fairy!

Make it ~!

Apparently, the Forest Fairy knew about the ring. The confectionery fairies gladly said, "Is it a ring made of confectionery? '.

--If you eat that, you'll lose your ring.

Tiara Rose laughs, though the ring made of sweets certainly looks delicious.

"Thank you for your permission, fairies."

This sweet home belongs to the king!

That's why the fairies laugh when they can do whatever it takes. If they needed more help, they could use sweets to build more.

When Tiara Rose reappears as a cat, she closes her eyes and concentrates. Use your magic to move the confectionery house.

― ― The place where the ring is stored in the sweets' home.

I don't know what to do.

In the basement, upstairs, or in the kitchen to make sweets? When I imagined the various places, the whole house of sweets floated in Tiara Rose's mind.

I thought the candy house was three stories long, but apparently there's an attic.

You can understand the house by using your magic power.

--The attic isn't particularly used, is it?

There was a small, round window, from which I could see the royal castle. The view was overwhelming, and Tiara Rose liked the attic at first sight.

... I've decided to stay here.

Tiara Rose draws an arc around her mouth and pours magic into the confectionery house.

At first, I was worried that I would not be able to do well, but when I became a cat-fairy king of sweets, I was able to deal with magic and nature when I thought about the home of sweets.

Maybe this is what Keith was talking about.

Soon, the attic became the ring vault.

Phew...

With a sense of accomplishment and a lot of magic, Tiara Rose sat down on the floor. It was harder to use Fairy King's powers than I thought.

Aquastide hugged the tiara rose.

Are you okay, Tiara?

Yes! I'm a little tired, but... I have a room where I can safely place my ring.

When Tiara Rose smiled, Aquastide stroked her head and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead.

But Keith broke into it.

"You're not messing around in public, are you?"

Nahhh!?

Keith almost grabbed the tiara rose, but Aquastide took a step back and evaded.

"Tiara is my wife, so that's all right, right?"

I'm a blessed fairy king of the forest?

As usual, sparks were scattered between Aquastide and Keith, and Tiara Rose hurriedly stopped.

What are you doing, both of you!

In that case, let's calm down by eating cookies ~

As the Tiara Rose stopped, the confectionary fairy stuck cookies into Aqua Steed and Keith's mouth. "It's like a forest fairy forcing Tiara Rose to eat sweet flowers..."

Arbitrated by the confectionery fairy, the two grinned bitterly as they ate cookies.

Keith flattened the cookie and looked at Tiara Rose, “And then...”

You just have to decide what kind of ring you want to use.

You have to think about it before you can make it.

Tiara Rose nods to Keith's words and thinks about what kind of ring she should use... but it doesn't come to mind immediately.

Is it better to help the country, or is it better to help the individual, or... it seems like I can't stop thinking about it.

"It's not in a hurry, so you should decide slowly." I'll always be available if I can help you. "

Thank you, Aqua

Tiara Rose nodded vigorously, saying that if Aquastide thought about it together, it would be a hundred men.
