Chapter 207: Fontainebleau Water Color
“—You met the [Narcissus Cross Adventure Group].
An doesn't know where the Water Monster Kingdom you are looking for is, and flatly denies being called a Water Monster.
"If you are not a water monster, what are you?" The disappointed little man stopped talking. You were the one who asked this question.
She shook her head. "I don't know... what I am, exactly. I've never thought about it before." She quickly perked up. "The members of the [Narcissus Cross Adventure Group] have different appearances and identities, but we're united by a common goal."
"—We must rescue Princess Lilith and defeat the dragon Narcissus!"
You and the little man looked at each other, and with the last glimmer of hope, you decided to help An rescue his companions.
aqua-blue tufted sparrow [small cabbage];
The aqua-blue duck, the brother of the sparrow [Al];
Aquamarine Frog [Jacques];
Aqua Blue Squirrel [Colonel Kate];
And the aqua-blue forest pig, who is actually a puppy, [Morrie]...
Plus, from a distance, the aqua-blue dragon [Narcissus].
After gathering the [Narcissus Cross Adventure Group], you couldn't help but say, "This is actually the Water Monster Kingdom!"
The little man nodded. "Just like... Dad is called... Uncle outside, we call this place the Water Monster Kingdom—"
"But they themselves don't know that people outside call this the Water Monster Kingdom!" You naturally took over the conversation. "If you think about it carefully, you shouldn't call yourself the 'Water Monster', right?"
"...Narcissus." The little man nodded and corrected the word water monster in a concise manner.
Not only that, they seem to have found Telksi. Take one character from each of their names -
Colonel Kate
Al
Jacques
Narcissus (of course, this is the dragon).
The name of the water monster circulated in the Fontainebleau fairy tale condenses their complete story.
"Does the evil dragon Narcissus really have nothing to do with you?" You couldn't help but ask after discovering this pattern.
Noticing that the members of the adventure group were in a bad mood, An quickly shook his head, "Please don't say such things. We once had an important partner on the road to escape pursuit—"
The little cabbage said, "It was Brother [Naiyi]. He escaped with us with the treasure, but in order to protect us, he was dissolved in the water by the dragon."
The atmosphere darkened, and everyone in the adventure group fell into their own thoughts. Al and Jacques, who had always argued along the way, fell silent. After losing Ney, Jacques had gone from being gentle and tearful to being like this...
The little man pursed his lips. Because he didn't often interact with the outside world, his mind was quite active and he wasn't lacking in wisdom. Like you, he had also figured out the truth about the water demon Terkesi.
...This is not what he imagined.
But, fortunately, the little man cheered up and couldn't help but hold your hand tighter.
"In-Pasi, we have to...save the princess."
He looked at you hard and firmly.
This is the first time that the little man has pronounced your name.
"Yeah!" You nodded heavily, your blood boiling with passion. "Isn't it just a dragon? It caused you to lose your companions. As long as we work together, even a demon god can be killed!"

Nothing happened between you and the little guy, and the atmosphere of the Narcissus Cross Adventure Group suddenly relaxed.
"Little Knight, it's not that scary! If it was a god, no one would have a chance to escape." The little cabbage jumped happily a few times and joked along. The surroundings were shaken by the Water Sparrow's behavior.
If you didn't have the blessing that made you fearless and confident, you and your teammates would have been beaten to a pulp."
“After the Narcissus Cross Adventure Group has assembled, the next step is to obtain the treasure that Nai hid with his life, and to unlock the seals of the tower and time, so that the time that was sealed by the dragon in the Narcissus Cross Kingdom can flow again.
Follow An's instructions, enter the magical bubble, bypass the dragon, and go to a higher place...
We were clearly underwater, yet it felt like we were flying. The little man's eyes were wide open, sparkling brightly, just like the first time I saw you in the misty forest.
"Although it's not quite what I imagined...but this is the real kingdom of water monsters." When he was about to return to the water again, the little man smiled peacefully.
"The water fairy didn't want to sing to the children because she was lonely, but to... ask for help." When she said this, the little man's expression was a little dazed.
“Hmm…?” You looked at him confused. “Isn’t this the same thing?”
The little guy was startled and lowered his head, as if he was lost in his own emotions because of these words.
In what happened next, the little guy became more and more active for unknown reasons, leaving you with no extra time to think divergently.
For example, because of Telxi's word puzzle, it is associated with the fact that the dragon Narcissus actually ate Ney from the Narcissus Cross Adventure Group. At the critical moment of the final battle, the companions will face the enemy with them in another form.
——This is one of your previous guesses.
It is worth mentioning that when you stand opposite the dragon with the [Ultimate Overlord Super Demon Sword], the little man stands side by side with you with the [Narcissus Cross Holy Sword] that he obtained through his own persistence and ingenuity.
Finally, you did meet the aqua-colored Princess Lilith... but in another unimaginable way.
"What? So the Narcissus Cross Kingdom is just a story you imagined with no ending?!" You looked at the woman who called herself "Marianne" in shock.
The little man lowered his eyes and sighed, "Is that so? I... knew it a long time ago."
"Ah? How did you know?"

The little boy looked at Marian and said, "Grown-ups always say that there might be sources in fairy tales, like the roots of water... Impas, you still remember when I said this is the real kingdom of water monsters, but that's only in reality."
"It doesn't belong to my Water Monster Kingdom." He paused, "It belongs to hers. That's why I know."
For 500 years, Marianne, who lived alone in the "Sleeping House", kept directing this story, and adventurers kept breaking in, witnessing part of the story and spreading it.
Over time, this rumor twisted into the legend of the water spirit Tel'xi.
…
You still didn't understand, but there was one thing you were vaguely aware of: you and the little man, no, the little boy whose real name was Les Codestre, went out to refute the legend of the water monster.

"Don't be sad, Impas." Lesco sat in the shallows and spoke fluently. "Everyone has a different water spirit in their heart. This reminds me."
"Shouldn't you be happy? Someone's Water Fairy Kingdom really exists, and she found it... So, my Water Fairy Kingdom, my friend Tel'xi, also really exists in a corner of the world."
You nodded hesitantly, “It seems… that’s true.”
He quickly cheered up, "That's great, little...Lesco, we can still practice together!"

"I've been wanting to say this for a while now. I prefer the fat penguin [Teerxi] you drew for me to the residents of Narcissus Cross Kingdom!"
"...You, your fat Doraemon is not bad either." After hearing the word "Fat Penguin", Lesko was stunned for a long time and couldn't think of any words that were sincere and unpleasant.
"Really? I think so too!" You immediately smiled.
"After witnessing the story of the Narcissus Cross Kingdom, you lay idly on the shallows west of Fontaine, your eyes closed, your hands on your stomach.
It's probably like this -
Puff Beast Puff Beast You Lesco Puff Beast

If it weren't for the naked eye, you lazy guys, there is no doubt... you are of the same species as the Bulging Beast!
Even if a living being approaches at this time, it will probably not be able to recognize you... I don't think so!
The visitor easily spotted the suddenly sunken part of the round, inflated beast, but he was not a chivalrous or nosy person, so he avoided it.
You moved your head and your eyes caught the edge of that person's clothes.
"Little... Lescaut! Little Lescaut!" You moved your arms and patted the person next to you, your eyes shining. "That seems to be a researcher from the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences!"
Lesco reluctantly opened his eyelids, making no move, trying to convey his meaning with his eyes; he was no longer used to speaking.
Or rather, I can't remember that I have the option of speaking.
Every cell in his body was expressing his refusal. It wasn't just the physical exhaustion, but also his lack of interest in the researcher.
Besides, Lesko remembered that there were researchers from the Fontaine Academy of Sciences in Melo Petersburg. Even the prison had a few. Wouldn't it be easier to detect the researchers outside Melo Petersburg? It wasn't a big surprise...
"Wow - this little human is so beautiful. This is the first time I see a human with such bright fur..." You sigh unconsciously.
Lesko sat up suddenly with a sharp look in his eyes.
Following your gaze, the unfamiliar researcher, having noticed something, quickly turned his back to you.
Fortunately, the perceptive Lesko still saw it, and the remaining emotions of rejection and amazement on his face were intertwined.
"Did you see that? Isn't it amazing! He must be a skincare genius, he can actually keep the sunset glow on his face!"
He nodded, "You're telling the truth!"
"Right, right!"
Then Lesco touched his face thoughtfully, his eyes suddenly determined as if he was about to join the army, "Little Impas, if you like, should I draw one on my face too?"
……ah?
You slowly typed a question mark.
Lesco fixed your face sternly, looked you straight in the eyes and continued, "Melushin can't abandon Renmi! You can't replace me just because he's prettier than me!"
“…I, I didn’t!”
"You hesitated!" Lesko became even more nervous. "Why else would you want to talk to so many researchers at this moment?"
This statement makes sense and you are almost speechless.
"That's not true, little Lesko! Is it, is it?"
Gritting your teeth, you had no choice but to reveal your scars in order not to lose the person in front of you. You closed your eyes and said, "I haven't considered changing to someone else, because you are the only one who is about the same height as me!"
"Our Meilushin can't grow taller!" You said loudly, feeling aggrieved. "I want to find a researcher, hoping to find a way to make Meilushin taller! That way we can grow up together!"
