I am leaving this impression, and the people who visit this place will probably be no different.

As if these flowers were not used for proposals for nothing, each one had a beautiful color that could not be compared to the blue roses of the earth.

Perhaps, unlike those on Earth, it is not a ‘blue-looking’ flower, but rather a rose with a real ‘natural blue pigment’.

“I understand your concerns.”

“Yes. Even though this is technically a green land… it was even more worrying because it was extremely close to the border with human territory.”

In that case, it is worth being greedy for food and other things. For one reason or another, the elf’s worries were not a big deal.

As much as I wanted to pull it all up, clean up the roots, and make a bouquet of flowers, I couldn’t do that in front of an innocent elf.

Therefore, I took out the bow of the World Tree. It had already been used to make the area around Argen’s Lair green, and now it was nothing but a shell.

The only remaining use is to gain the awe and respect of elves you have never seen before. However, it is clear that it is an item imbued with Prinia’s power.

Therefore, by using the power of faith, we were able to do more things than we thought.

“Oh… that is the bow of the World Tree…”

The elf in charge of the guide immediately got down on one knee and showed respect. It was too much worship.

On the other hand, it wasn’t something I couldn’t understand. The green land spreading around Argen’s Lair was not where the World Tree took root directly.

It was created by Kaella with the power of Prinia that I had, so even though it is a green land, there is no World Tree, so it might be amazing to see a part of the World Tree like this.

“Okay. Let me show you something a little interesting.”

I put my faith into the bow of the World Tree. And then you have a strong desire to achieve what you want to achieve.

Faith spread through the bow to the roses that bloomed on the ground. Then the blue roses were uprooted and gathered into the bow of the World Tree.

The roses that touched the bow instantly disappeared as if they had never existed in the first place.

To be precise, it didn’t disappear, but went into the bow.

I don’t know the principles either. It was originally manifested through faith, and even its structure is nothing more than an imitation of Prinia’s power.

So how surprised was the elf who was watching the scene next to me?

“All the roses in the area were moved to near Argen’s Lair. No matter how thirsty a person is for love, he will never come that far.”

The elf, who had been watching my antics with his eyes popping out and his mouth wide open, barely opened his mouth.

“World Tree’s bow… is it even capable of things like this?”

“No. This is just a talent I have.”

“You can move the rooted life freely… After all, you are Titania.”

“Uh… whatever you think of.”

There was no reason to lie, but there was even no need to explain faith and the power of Prinia to an elf who knew nothing.

“I finally feel a bit relieved. A beautiful flower is such a big burden.”

“It seems like a flower that looks beautiful even in the eyes of elves. why. Do you want me to move it to your village?”

“Oh, no. Since our tribe also lives nearby, it is not an environment where we can escape the attention of humans more than here.”

“Really?”

“Yes. And above all, blue is not a color favored by elves. Apart from being beautiful.”

Among the colors found in natural plants and animals, blue is the rarest color. Since I wasn’t used to it, I could understand the reluctance.

“Then I guess I’ll just have to go. If any other problems arise, you can ask immediately. I’m always in Argen’s rare.”

“Ah, I understand! Thank you, Titania!”

I was able to secure a lot of blue roses like that. However, it might seem a little strange to just leave like this, so I spent the remaining time wandering around the elf village and checking out the current situation.

After resolving a few minor issues, I returned to find Wayne pacing at the entrance of the lair with a restless expression on his face.

“Eugene!”

“Huh? Am I really late?”

“No. That’s not it. I recited your words verbatim and Arjen didn’t really look for you.”

“Really? I’m sorry about that. But why are you loitering at the entrance like a busy person?”

“Uh… Just because Arjen didn’t look for you doesn’t mean he doesn’t miss you. It may sound obvious, but.”

“Oh my…”

What that meant was that Arjen was very sad. This is a fact that can be easily realized if you think about it a little, but it was a fact that I had forgotten in my obsession with finding roses.

I hurriedly headed to Arjen’s room. When I opened the door, there was Arjen with a downcast expression.

Arjen looks gloomy as he hugs his knees on the bed. Next to him, Orha was in the same posture as if it were a set menu.

“Arjen, Orha.”

As soon as they heard my voice, two identical-looking women turned to me with brightened expressions.

Orha was now completely Argen MK-2. It is said that the sympathies between the two were so deep that they became one of Arzen’s personalities, so it was okay to say that it was meaningless to distinguish between the two.

“Eugene!”

“Eujin!”

Putting everything aside, I accepted the two ‘Arjen’ who were hugging me at the same time, and I smiled awkwardly and averted my gaze.

Anyway, it was true that I lied, so I didn’t have the decency to look Arjen in the eyes.

But it seems that such behavior was more fatal to Arjen.

“Huh… why are you avoiding my eyes…? Did I do something wrong…?”

“No! Not at all! I just… I felt sorry for neglecting you all because of my circumstances. You were very sad, right?”

“Hi… I feel sadder that Eugene is avoiding my gaze than that…”

“Me too! If you’re sorry, you know what to do…?”

As Arjen subtly lightened the mood, I couldn’t help but laugh. It was cute because it seemed so obvious that it was transparent what he wanted.

“I’m sorry.”

A kiss with an apple. Since this was the first time I shared affection with Arjen, even a light kiss formed a significant bond between us.

“Wow… there are lips here too…”

“Yes, yes.”

I also kissed Orha, who was fussing a lot. Excluding the time I spent sleeping, I actually met Orha for a little over 3 years, and our bond was already as strong as that of Argen.

As I say over and over again, they have become almost the same person.

“Please do me one more time.”

Arjen seems to be quite stimulated by looking at his kiss from an objective perspective, so he asks her to kiss him again.

“Yes, okay.”

side!

It seemed that Orha was stimulated again as he obediently kissed her.

“Well, me too one more time…”

“…Okay.”

side!

“Oh! Me too…!”

This time, Arjen again. It was truly a love that constantly bubbled up and circulated. If there is infinite power, wouldn’t this be infinite power?

I suddenly found myself in a situation where I had to kiss in succession right before going to bed, but it was a fortunate thing.

Even if Arjen had just asked, ‘Did the distillery work go well?’, I would have been caught in a dilemma.

I couldn’t lie to Arjen even if I died, so I had to be honest about the blue rose and the proposal, and I didn’t want that either.

As I fell asleep, I realized once again how poor and dangerous the improvisation I had done today was.

So, we tweaked the strategy a bit.

Since we succeeded in securing the blue rose anyway, there was no need to go outside anymore.

All that was left was to write letters and practice serenades, both of which could be done while hiding in the distillery.

Yes. The goal is to create an environment in which difficult questions can be answered by mixing truth with lies.

If you truly clean up your drinking and your faith in dwarves, you will only have hidden facts and no lies.

Somehow, it will become more vicious as time goes on, but it is something that can’t be helped.

Because it’s a once-in-a-lifetime proposal.

“I’ll go to the distillery today too.”

“Oh… I see.”

As soon as he opens his eyes in the morning, Arjen suddenly becomes depressed at my words. I immediately opened my mouth to reassure her.

“From today, there will be no need to come in after work hours like yesterday. All urgent fires were put out yesterday.”

Saving the rose was the most urgent fire, so this wasn’t a lie either.

“Yes!”

Seeing Arjen’s brightly smiling face made me feel more guilty, so I quickly headed to the distillery.

“Phew… Let’s practice singing first.”

Actually, there is nothing special about singing practice. Anyway, there are countless songs on earth that are used when confessing.

Since I had the vocal cords of a siren in addition to the vocals I was originally confident in, there was no need for practice.

What you really need to practice is playing that song. I took out Stella’s relic that I used while disguising myself as a bard.

The only ones that can be played with this are Ludwig’s songs with actual scores.

But that’s enough. Even if I don’t move and play the music myself, the fact that my body plays doesn’t change.

If you get used to playing an instrument, you will be able to at least play a familiar melody.

So I played the only music I could play, Ludwig’s Lieder.
