Feisha stared at the private part now exposed to air, then at Layton's flaly majestic,” he aht, of course
Layton quickly scrahtly around hi to the door
”We're all friends here, why be so distant?” Feisha s some skin Think of all the public baths!”
”Does my room look like a public bath?”
”…Well- I can't exactly un-see it, so what do you wantto do anything to you”
Feisha's words were like fuel to Layton's fiery rage ”What the fuck are you planning to do to me!?”
Feisha was sent flying to the door with a kick, turning around to the sight of Layton ru around in a box
”What are you looking for?” Could it be that dwarfs like storing tea in boxes? ”I'm fine with just a coke”
Layton stood up abruptly with a darkly twisted smile Feisha's eyes darted to the rusty axe in his hand, face devoid of colour ”Erm, I'm fine with no tea at all if it's too inconvenient, actually It's best to avoid stuff like cutting down trees, you knohat I mean?”
”Get Out”
Feisha slowly backed away, opening the door behind him As his feet touched onto the hallway floor, he called out in a last-ditch atteet rid of Borja quickly as well?”
There was a pause in which Layton's eyes showed a trace of reconsideration
Feisha held his breath
”Come in” The axe was thrown back into the box as the person outside quickly darted through and shut the door

Layton eed fully dressed from the bathroom after a period of time ”So, what's your plan?”
Half a minute of silence passed by
”Don't tellat Feisha
”My plan is completely reliant on what tools you have”
A ht ”What do you need?”
”Do you have anything like atomic bombs or nuclear weapons?”
Layton shook his head blankly
…Weren't dwarfs in sci-fi stories all et sent to Noah's Ark because he was too stupid?
An is explode recklessly came to mind, and the leader of which possessed none other than Layton's face In lieu of Layton's answers, Feisha lowered the difficulty of his requests ”Then what about an AK47?”
”Do you even have any threatening weapons other than that axe?”
Layton flipped around in his box again, e with an object in his hand It looked kind of familiar ”I feel like I've seen this somewhere before,” hummed Feisha
”There's an identical one in the kitchen”
Oh, right- wasn't this the knife Antonio always uses to chop vegetables?
Watching the slideshow of expressions pass by Feisha's face, Layton finally explained: ”I' into ways to make our lives easier, so I'm not very well-versed in weaponry”
”Oh, I understand I guess even law could be split down into stuff like civil law and criht now he needed criminal law! He couldn't see how civil law could help them at all unless they resorted to verbal assault
…Verbal assault?
A lightbulb somewhere inside Feisha's ht of Feisha's gross sain for an extra layer of clothes

Feisha was currently trying to adjust the DLD Layton stood next to hi?”
An exasperated eye roll and quietly our ”He's snoring”
”Fallen angels snore?” asked Layton, surprised
”This is not the tihes, you're up”
Hughes hesitated ”He's still a child, don't you think that this is a bit too much?”
”But I' at himself
For a few seconds, no one moved
Hughes relented, sighing, and took over the big chain of bright red firecrackers from Layton ”All I need to do is to put this into his room, correct?”
”It'd be great if you could stuff them under his blankets”
At Hughes's extre look, Feisha backtracked ”I mean, on top of the blankets is fine as well”
Hughes kept looking at him
”…But putting it anywhere else wouldn't have the same effect,” mumbled Feisha
”Putting it next to the bed would achieve virtually the sa”
”Then it has to be at the headboard”
Hughes turned around in silent agreement Feisha and Layton excitedly watched hi down one by one until all that was left was the chain of firecrackers floating away from them
