Tickle is hitting the psychic and Viscount Doll is making a frog puppet. The room is very quiet as they are both very focused on what they are doing.

　Viscount Doll doesn't scream with excitement, nor does Tickle scream.

　While I was watching Viscount Doll move the needle in such a strikingly different room and giving advice while observing Tickle's psychic, there was a knock on the door.

　However, neither Tickle nor Viscount Doll is bothered by this, as they are absorbed in their own work.

　When I replied, Meena fearfully peeked out from the doorway.

''........Um, I brought you some tea, is it okay now?''

'Yeah, we're both busy working on it now.

'Good. I heard all the shouting and crying, so I couldn't quite find the right moment to bring the tea...

　Looking at the room, Meena walked in with a relieved look on her face.

　Perhaps she really wanted to bring the tea earlier, but thinking back to the events of earlier, she felt a little sorry for her, as it must have been quite difficult.

''I'll put three cups of tea and some snacks on the table for the three of you for now.

"There it is, Master Alfried!　A frog's wallet!

　I'm about to work on Meena with a 'yes, thank you' when Viscount Doll suddenly starts screaming.

''Hiya!　What's wrong with you!

　Meena is surprised when Viscount Doll suddenly starts screaming with excited tension.

''Mm?　Are you the maid of the House of Thurlowett?　Out of my way, I have business with Lord Alfried.

Yes, yes, I'm sorry.

　Now Viscount Doll only seems to be interested in the doll, me, and Tickle, and seems to be indifferent to everything else.

　I feel a little sorry for Meena, but she's this kind of person, so I hope she'll give him a break. She's usually mild-mannered and now it's just bad timing.

'Meena, you can help Tickle-san if you want. Tickle-san can also watch Meena's movements and her center of gravity until she collapses, which will be very helpful. It's hard to know what's going on with your body alone.

Huh?　Cooperation?　A doll?

'You're sure?　Now, Meena, we need your help!　I'm just going to stand there!

'Yes. I'm not sure, but it's good.

　Meena doesn't swallow the situation, but she cooperates with Tickle anyway.

　And there might be something to be gained by objective observation.

'Alfried-dono!　I've got a froggy purse!

　As I was thinking about this, Viscount Doll grabbed me by the shoulders.

　Apparently, he wasn't happy about being left alone, even though he had completed his wallet.

''Oh, I'm sorry. I was instructing Tickle for a bit.''

　I turned around, making an excuse, and found a green, shriveled frog placed in the middle of nowhere.

　It looked like a dried up frog, perhaps because it was faintly rounded but not cushioned.

'Is this a frog purse?'

'Yeah, we can do the frog puppets later by filling them with cotton. First, we'll put some money in this thing and see if it curls up.

　I'll probably make two at some point, but the sooner I do, the sooner I can experiment.

'Do you have the money for this room?　If it's not there, I'll have Bastian bring it to you.

I have.

　I'm a nobleman's son. I have a good amount of money to spend.

　I take out a leather bag from the table drawer.

　When I turned it over, I found countless gold, silver and copper coins.

"Money?

　You hear the sound of money and Meena turns to you blatantly.

　I can't give her this when she looks at me like she wants something.

'Okay, so let's pack it up then.'

　He and Viscount Doll stuff the pile of coins on the floor into the frog wallet.

　Then the dried up frog wallet swells up with coins with a bang, as if it were water. It's not a cute frog that revives by inserting money into it, but it looks cute, so it's okay.

　The frog wallet swelled up wonderfully as I mindlessly filled it with coins.

'Ooh, it rounded out beautifully when I put money in it!

It's hard and panting, but it's cute because it's round.

Hmm, maybe I'll even save up some money or something just to see a cute little frog.

　It would be cute to see little kids saving up money to fatten up their froggy purses, etc.

'Shall we fill it with cotton next?

　Once we've checked the bulge in the frog purse, we pull out the money.

　As I'm putting the money back into the leather bag, Viscount Doll uses a pair of scissors to remove the thread and slurp up the cotton from between the cloths.

　Then, in no time at all, he pans the inside with cotton, and finally dives the needle in and closes the space between the cloths.

　He really is much more dexterous than his huge body would suggest.

　It was as fast as if I was watching a video in fast-forward.

'I finished putting the cotton in!

　When I fix the money in the drawer and turn around, Viscount Doll hands me a frog doll with cotton in it.

　It's a beautiful circular shape, without the coin shape floating unnaturally like the wallet I just saw.

　When you hold it, it's very fluffy thanks to the cotton inside.

　The cloth used for the coin is also very pleasant to the touch.

It's cute and fluffy and it's the best thing ever.

'Mm, I agree!　I thought it was quite outlandish to be a round frog, but it's so adorable!

　When I handed back the frog doll, Viscount Doll hugged it with all his might.

　Yeah, the sight of someone like Viscount Doll hugging it is quite uncomfortable, but since the person himself looks happy, I don't go into it.

''Alfried-dono, can you move this like a frog?''

　As I was looking at the happy Viscount Doll with a lukewarm eye, Viscount Doll said something like that to me.

　It's like a frog. I'm getting used to the way humans move, but when it comes to animals and the like, it's completely different, and since I've never done it before, it's difficult.

　But looking at Viscount Doll's eyes, which are filled with anticipation, I can't say that either.

''I've never done it before, but I'll give it a try.

Please!

　Viscount Doll smiles happily and puts a frog doll on the floor.

　I cast a psychic spell on it and frog jump first.

　However, what I actually did was trace the frog's jumping trajectory and move it around, so it can't be called a frog jump at all. It looks like a sphere is bouncing.

　Maybe it's because its arms and legs are shorter than normal frogs, or maybe it's because it can't move its legs like a frog.

　I'm sure Knight and Elizabeth would be able to make it look more like that by bending their legs and waving their hands, but with these short limbs, it's just not possible....

''The doll I made moves right in front of me!　I'm happy....

　While I had such an impression, Viscount Doll was smiling with a satisfied smile, perhaps because he was terribly happy that the doll he had made was moving.

　Well, I just made this frog puppet a while ago. It must be quite pleasing to Viscount Doll that it works immediately.

　At this point, let's throw away the frog-ness and try to find a round frog-like movement.

　The only way to learn it is to move it. I make the frog doll jump and bounce around Viscount Doll.

'Oh, oh!　I'm a healthy frog!　Hahahahahaha!

　With that alone, Viscount Doll is very excited.

　He smiled happily at the frog dolls jumping around him. His face was very innocent, just like a small child's.
