Put the liquor in the empty cup of Captain Tableau.
"Thank you"
"That story is Ivy, not me."
"Mr. Ivy?
Captain Tableau with a slightly surprised look at my words.
Did you hear who was saying that?
"Yeah, Ivy told me smiling was important."
"Was it? I didn't hear from Priya that it was Mr. Ivy. So I thought it was Mr. Druid. Excuse me."
"No, never mind. Ivy's already asleep, so I'll tell her Captain Tableau was thanking her when she woke up tomorrow."
"Please. Um."
"What's up?
"Uh, what does Mr. Ivy and Mr. Druid have to do with this? I thought it was a parent and child, but it seems very different. Oh, if you don't want to answer."
Ivy owes me my life.
"What? A benefactor of life?
Captain Tableau's eyes open wide to see if my words were surprising.
Well, you can't think from the way Ivy looks.
The opposite would be possible.
"She found me at work, attacked by demons, ate my arm, and died, and treated me."
"... Were you... that? Ivy's Tamer, right? How do you treat him?
"It's a potion, isn't it?
There's a crease between my eyebrows in my response.
I guess it feels like you lost your arm and used any potion on me between deaths.
You also think it's impossible.
"He used all the potions he found on me."
"All the potions you found?
"Yeah, there was an escort besides me, so it's all the potion they had. They died then."
"Oh, excuse me. What kind of potion is that?
"He said he didn't remember because he was in a hurry. There were plenty of empty bottles left. Well, I don't know how it worked, because this is how I live."
"With that said, I've heard that potions do have strange things to do when combined. Is that it?
"Probably. I was losing my mind then."
"Really? I see."
You convinced?
Well, even if I looked it up in All Town, it wouldn't be a problem because all I got is the information I just said.
"Mr. Ivy is a strange man, isn't he? I don't know what the kids who are taming are like."
"Bad, can I move the magic item?
I was in a hurry.
I don't know where the information will be leaked.
Get permission from Captain Tableau to activate a magic item that blocks the sound you're carrying.
This will not divulge the conversation.
"Sorry, didn't realize"
"It's pretty rare slime, so I'm careful."
"That's natural. Because I've never heard of a slime that revives demon stones."
Make other rare potions, digest your sword in seconds, bring me back to life on the verge of dying?
Yeah, I've been thinking back a long time about what those kids do, but it's too rare.
I mean, you're not on the same level as any other rare.
"This time, I am grateful for providing the Demon Stone. And it's a fairly high level demon stone, so there will be a lot of lives to help. I'm scared in the sense that it's a little strange that you're offering me all that, but there's no demand for anything."
Well, I guess so.
Keep all that stuff and don't be dissatisfied with the fixed amount.
I'm not even demanding anything.
... Oh, I didn't think about it, but this is a bit scary for them.
"It's okay, because I won't be asking for anything later. In the first place, Ivy said," I feel bad that you bought something my ex didn't hang on. "
I have no desire to use that magic stone to try anything in her.
Or if I told you that I could do a lot with one demon stone, I would look serious, think about it, and tilt my neck.
"Don't you have an ex?
"Yeah, because it's a used demon stone that was dumped in the dump or given to me by Mr. Rose"
"I can certainly say that, because I have the hassle of picking it up"
Go get or deliver this cold, used Demon Stone.
The Tamers I know were firmly switching that amount for money.
But Ivy doesn't have that idea from the start.
"For that kid, the act of picking it up isn't a hassle"
It feels like Ivy is collecting a meal of his dear friends.
I don't think that's a hassle.
"You're sweet, aren't you?"
"Yeah, very"
There's always a smile in Captain Tableau's words.
Don't let your stubborn face loosen when someone else compliments your precious family.
"Mr. Druid always smiles, too, doesn't he?"
Do you?
... With that said, I think I've been laughing a lot lately.
You can't think from me back in the day.
"Pfft."
"What?"
I remembered my old self and laughed imagining how I would say it if I saw me now.
Absolutely, you've seen it with your eyes like you see someone you don't understand.
I didn't even believe in myself before I met Ivy.
"Excuse me, I laughed like I was different from what I am now"
"Was it different?
"Yeah, not at all. If I hadn't met that girl, my heart would have stayed dead."
"My heart?
Yes, I couldn't face the possibility of taking the stars seriously.
To my family, I'm sorry.
I felt like saying that to my brothers, but another emotion was swirling.
Neither Gotos nor his master allowed him to cross the last line.
'Cause there was a lot going on.'
"Were you?"
"Yep."
It's strange to remember now.
Why didn't I build Ivy a wall, even though I owe her my life?
If I were someone other than Ivy, I'm sure this wouldn't have happened.
"Really?"
I'm talking about this, but don't be a little uncomfortable with Captain Tableau about what it is.
I wonder what it is?
Observe carefully Captain Tableau sitting in the front seat drinking alcohol.
Sweat?
I can see sweat on my forehead.
Even though it's cold?
Could it be... What, but why?
"Um, maybe you're nervous?
"Buh."
"Wow."
Captain Tableau spraying booze.
Wrong time to ask.
In a hurry, wipe the splashed liquor with the small towel you had in your pocket.
"Excuse me. I didn't expect you to react like that."
"No, I'm nervous, as Mr Druid put it"
"Huh."
But when you got here, you weren't nervous.
