Chapter 334: Frog Purse and Frog Doll
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Tickle devoted herself to training her Psychic magic, while Viscount Dole is making a frog doll. The two of them are concentrating on their own work so the inside of the room is very quiet.om
Viscount Dole raises excited sounds while Tickle still doesn’t make any noise.
As I watched Viscount Dole moving his needles in such a completely different atmosphere and giving advice to Tickle while observing her, the door was knocked.
However, Tickle and Viscount Dole don’t even care about it, maybe because they were both immersed in their own work.
When I answer it, Mina cautiously showed her face from the gap in the door.om
「……umm, I brought tea but, is it all right now?」
「Un, those two are both concentrating on their own work」
「 That's good to hear. I heard angry and crying voices coming from outside, so I could not quite find the right timing to bring the tea......」
Looking at the situation inside the room, Mina enters looking relieved.
Actually, she probably wanted to bring the tea earlier but when I think back to the incident a while ago, I felt a bit of sympathy for her since it must have been impossible for her to enter.
「I will put the tea and sweets for three people on the table for now」
「I made it Alfried-dono! A frog purse!」
When I was about to thank Mina with「Un, thank you」, Viscount Dole suddenly shouts.
「Hyaa!? What happened!?」
Mina was surprised at Viscount Dole, who suddenly shouted out loud in excited tension.
「Mu? Are you a maid of Slowlett house? Move over, I have some business with Alfried-dono」
「Ye, yes, I’m sorry」
It looks like the current Viscount Dole is only interested in dolls, me, and Tickle, he looks to be indifferent to anything other than those three.
Mina is a little pitiful but he’s that kind of person, so please forgive him. He is usually mild-mannered, it was just that the timing right now is bad.
「Mina, would you help Tickle-san if you don’t mind? It will also be a good reference for Tickle-san if she can watch Mina’s center of gravity as you move and until you fall down. As expected, it’s difficult for her to grasp all that with just her own body」
「He? Help? With doll?」
「Is that okay?! Then, Mina-san, thank you for helping me! You can just stand there!」
「O, okay. I don’t understand it that much, but that’s fine」
Although she doesn’t understand the circumstances, Mina still helps Tickle for now.
She may be able to obtain something from observing someone moving objectively.
「Alfried-dono! I finished the frog purse!」
Just when I was thinking about such a thing, Viscount Dole grabbed my shoulder.
It looks like even though he completed the purse, he was dissatisfied that he had been neglected.
「Ahh, I’m sorry. I was just instructing Tickle a bit」
As I turn around while giving him an excuse, I saw a shriveled green frog over there.
It’s slightly roundish, but maybe it’s because there are no cushions inside it that it looks like a dried-up frog.m
「Is this a frog purse?」
「Yeah, you can make it into a frog doll by stuffing it with cotton later. First, let’s try to experiment with this by putting money inside and see if it will become round」
I would eventually make two of them, but we can experiment on it faster this way.
「Do you have any money in this room? If not I will ask Bastian to bring some」
「There areー」
I’m also pretty much a child of a noble after all. I have my own pocket money.
I take out a leather bag from the table drawer.
Turning the bag over, countless gold, silver, and copper coins came out.
「Money!」
Perhaps she heard the sound of money as Mina openly turns her eyes toward me.
I’m not gonna give you even if you look at me with such greedy eyes.
「Yosh, now let’s stuff these inside」
Together with Viscount Dole, I start to stuff the frog doll with the coins I picked up from the floor.
Then, the starved-like frog quickly swells up with the coins as if it swallowed water. The frog that restored its body with money is not cute, but I guess it’s okay since it looks adorable?
As we quietly and silently fill it with coins, the frog purse splendidly swell up.
「Ooh, it became completely round when you put money in it!」
「It’s tight and bulging, but it is cute because it’s round」
「Umm, I might be able to continue saving up money just so I can see the cute frog」
It will be adorable if you can see small children saving up money in the frog purse in order to fatten up the frog.
「Shall we add the cotton next?」
After confirming the frog purse’s state as it swells up, we then withdraw the money inside.
While I was returning back into the leather bag, Viscount Dole cut the thread with scissors and swiftly stuffed the frog with cotton through the cloth.
And in the blink of an eye, the inside of the frog is filled with cotton and in the end, he uses a needle to sew and close the gap between the cloth.
That was a really dexterous movement you can’t expect from someone with such a large build.
It was so fast it’s like I was watching a fast-forwarded video.
「I’m done stuffing it with cotton!」
When I turn around after putting my money back into the drawer, Viscount Dole hands over the frog doll that has been stuffed with cotton.
Unlike the earlier shape with the coins that stand out unnaturally, it now has a nice round shape.
When I try to hold it in my hand, it feels very soft thanks to the cotton inside.
The cloth used is also nice to the touch, it feels nice just to touch it.
「It’s cute and soft, it’s very nice」
「Umm, I also think so! I thought a round frog would be quite dubious, but this is adorable in its own way!」
Viscount Dole holds the doll tightly when I return the frog doll to him
Un, the appearance of someone like Viscount Dole hugging the doll so tightly gives you an uncomfortable feeling, but the person himself looks happy so I decides not to say anything in response.
「Alfried-dono, can this doll also move like a frog?」
As I was looking at Viscount Dole with a lukewarm gaze, Viscount Dole asked that of me.
Like a frog, huh? I’ve gotten used to how people move, but when it comes to animals then it’s a different matter altogether, I have never done it before so it’s difficult.
However, when I see the eyes of Viscount Dole which were filled with expectations, I can’t say that out loud.
「I never tried it before, but let’s do it then」
「Please!」
Viscount Dole happily laughs and puts the frog doll on the floor.
Then I cast Psychic magic on the doll and first, make the doll jump.
But, what I actually did was just move the doll by imitating the jump trajectory made by a frog, so it can’t really be said to be a frog jump. It just looks like a ball jumping up.
Maybe it’s because it has shorter limbs than normal frogs that it can’t move its legs normally like a frog.
If it were to be compared to Knight and Elizabeth, then it would look like when they bend their legs or wave their hands, but it’s impossible with those short limbs.....
「The doll I made is moving in front of me! I’m so happy.....」
I was having such an impression in my mind, but Viscount Dole has a satisfied smile on his face, perhaps because he was really happy that the doll he made is moving in front of him.
Oh well, he just made this frog doll after all. It would be quite a delightful thing for Viscount Dole since it can move so quickly after he made it.
Let’s try to leave the movements like a real frog aside, and try to find movements that fit its round shape.
And as expected, I can only move it after understanding that fact. So I make the frog doll jumps and bounces around Viscount Dole.
「O, ooh! What a lively doll! Hahahahaha!」
Just doing that alone makes Viscount Dole very excited.
He happily laughs seeing the frog doll hop around him. His face was like that of a small child and was very innocent.
