1358 City of Pleasure, Part 193 - Discussion on the Ruler of Tarram ③ -

Inside it is written the daily routine in which the mother and child stay warm.

"Yeah, yeah... the content is general and moral, but if it's a 250 year old piece, I guess we should consider ethics moving forward. And you're a good painter. I guess I've grown up quite a bit as a photographic painter with this. The author is - I wonder if this is my portrait. Awesome beauty. But is it just a book writer who can wear such fine clothes and jewelry?

Alphilis looked into the author - who would be Naena. I think the writer's name would be a pseudonym anyway, and he wins the publisher's register. If there were to be a publisher at the time, the culture of Tarram would have preserved a culture no different from that of the eastern country. Publishers are not allowed to publish people they don't know they're coming from because they get the profit right.

As he looked into it, Alphilis was beginning to marvel at the high level of Tarram's cultural standards.

"There was... Naena, Dorothea, Fee, Barbara. Just the name of the writer I signed up for. There's more. And not just picture books, but painters, connoisseurs, dancers, textile-managers, and whores? Is it because of the gorgeous outfit? Certainly it would have been quite popular, even if it weren't for the whore to form in this makeover. And you have a great background. I know you tried not to understand that you're the same person, but if you're all the same person, you're just a person who doesn't suck at applying for a master. I wish I could put this guy's own thing in my history book.

But I think it's a hobby to publish a few books. And the number of copies is small. That would be the only copy in an age without printing, but I think adding the value of a picture would sell quite a few... oh, is it difficult the other way around because you need a picture? When that happened, the picture book itself was groundbreaking? After all, you're on the cutting edge of the era. Oh, this book. "

It's the story of a mother making her child read a book. The number of copies issued was small, less than 10, but it was a warm story that I was relieved to read. I thought this would be a penchant, not a creation. Perhaps, the story of Naina and her mother. A little bit, maybe they all are. I hear there are many private children in a city called Tarram. Has this narrative been such a consolation to them? Alphilis tried to take each of the books he kept in his hands. Then there was only one thick back cover in one of them.

When I opened the back cover, two seals fell from it. Alphilis took it and looked at them. Can clearly see if the state of preservation is good or not. Good paper and ink. I guess I wrote it in a first-class piece at the time.

"Dear Mother,

With the love and assistance of her mother, Naena was able to develop a variety of businesses. I believe that one day this letter will reach you, and I am taking the brush now.

It was the life of an orphan, but with excessive happiness. Those who nestled with me in Mother's presence will be equally grateful. Finally, I could also make what I most wanted to leave behind: a picture book. You won't be able to use it as a sale, but I'll leave it for someone like me one day.

The only thing I'm worried about is that we travel the world faster than your mother. I did my best, too, but I can't beat the annual wave that stops by. The doctor has declared that it won't last another month. Please forgive me for leaving such a letter on my journey.

We don't all know, but only I know that my mother is alive. How did you know that? I'm also an appraiser, right? It's my job to spot the truth, not just through my eyes, but through my brush. Your mother didn't hide from you, she disappeared once and now she's about to be healthy elsewhere.

I have no children, but I will leave my business and legacy for those who will follow. Please help me for someone like me.

Stretched Mother hated self-portraits, but they were a treasure to me. How brave you were when it was hard at work. Please forgive your mother for secretly drawing it during the rest of the day. I'm next door, I painted it in my imagination. Don't be sneaky to dispose of it with my hands and I will leave the disposition to you.

More than your daughter. "

Alphilis confirms another seal. It was used up, a notebook small enough to get into the chest. When opened, a single picture is inserted behind the cover, containing a picture of an old classy woman sitting in a chair and a girl who left a little young. literature and an alphilis uncomfortable with the painting.

Alphilis confirmed the immortality of the person to be Naena again. Look at that age and think that's not supposed to happen. And staring at the painting again, I feel like the person there looks familiar to me. The minor alphilis also nearly dropped the notebook in surprise.

"No way, no way... she's the ruler?

Alphilis was stunned by the answer he had reached.
