Soul Monarch: The Eclipse Feast Online

Restitution, Botin Family (Side)

I stood empty when I saw him.

A completely white figure was like a spotless existence. I saw his left hand cut off from the elbow because of the delay in handling we did. Nevertheless, he still ignored her condition and behaved as nothing special happened.

Is that because he's an Indestructible?

But before I could think any further, she looked at us, no, looking at me deeply with eyes as white as snow in sight. Making our eyes meet, locking each other with a calm cold feeling as if welcoming, carrying something frightening there.

I watched her more and more and she, Dirae really acts like a doll.

As long as that priest, Fiman Elion explained how we would deal with this matter, he only nodded a few times and replied no more than necessary. It was as if everything had ended according to what he knew would happen.

What he was thinking now, I could not read it at all. I even suspected her emotions were dead but my intuition said no.

And finally, it was my turn to speak four-eyes with himself.

I tried to provoke some reactions that he might show by introducing myself, my family is from, Botin. Words are enough to make someone's attitude tend to change to me but he just returned my introduction and still behaved the same as before.

Once again, I alluded to the matter that got him involved. Of course it wasn't enough to elicit the reaction I wanted so I used that, Melg's status card after he was arrested.

However ...

What's he thinking?

... I still can't figure out how his mind works.

I feel like what Dirae's running in his brain isn't what's going on in this place. But on the other hand, I kept feeling that he was watching me in full.

She replied 'a little' as I asked her if she was confused but I knew she wasn't really confused.

Trying to be a little brave, I offended him at a sensitive point but he just kept quiet and gave no meaningful reaction.

All right, I better get to the core of the problem I have to deal with.

"So Girae, I'll just say it now. As compensation for the problems caused by one of our former members until you have to go down, I, as a representative of Potchi will give all of Melg's treasure to you.” I said.

We agreed on this before. Indeed, some of Melg's assets that are still associated with the company are not included but this amount is still quite large. The actual numbers are enough to make people react reflexively. However ...

"Is this related to my status as an Indestructible?"

... He just shot right at the target.

"You can understand it quickly."

It seems that there is no point in lying. It was indeed one of several considerations before this decision was taken.

"You know, to be honest you guys really feel sick. You can't be cleaned up and any number of times cleaned you'll only reappear shortly afterwards."

Haha. I actually said what I was thinking right now as if this was natural.

Bizarrely.

However, thanks to that we can continue to eliminate the mice that were previously entrenched so it is not entirely bad. Only, the problems related to the spread of the influence of the Temple, let alone the Smelluq Temple being the arch-enemy of the ‘Ymnar Church were entirely different things.

However ...

"I'm not going to take the money."

... He suddenly said something that made my whole mind stop 'tap for a moment.

"Do you underestimate us?" my voice spontaneously with a slightly pressing tone.

Taking a few breaths to win, I said, "We don't want to deal with you but that doesn't mean we can't do it at all."

However, Dirae only smiled at my warning. "Don't talk like that first."

Whatdoes thatmean? I thought a little squinting.

"I just don't want to take the treasure, the money directly. I'll return the treasure to develop a little cooperation with you guys."

Hoo. Sounds interesting. But—

"We won't be able to bargain easily know," I said.

Potchi shop is not a simple business entity. From the very beginning, since it was owned by us, the Botin Family, one of the nine main families of the States of Scuart there was no way we would have been humbled in the slightest.

Even if he had a few hands against us, it wouldn't happen.

It is true that if the news that a follower of the Smelluq Shrine is in our bodies and the potential influence has spread in the company, it will take us a little hit. But it will recover over time through cooperation with the Ymnar Church.

And finally, Dirae showed his first reaction. He exhaled a small breath, so weak that it would be difficult to realize.

"Yes, that's why I have something that will certainly interest you."

After saying so, he began to explain what he meant. He did not intend to take general actions such as taking part in the financing of potion making. Except for the development of new drug prescriptions.

One of the areas of alchemy —yang is the field of Potchi store bergelut— closely related to medical. And Durae, he had told me about some kind of medical procedure including a surgery that really sounded powerful as well as logical as the basis.

In addition, he had submitted several prescription drugs for one specific type of illness. A field that is difficult to develop because of the amount of trial and error needed to perfect the recipe.

Especially because its effectiveness only applies on a narrow scale of — which is compared to profits. The development of drugs for one disease in particular is rare.

"A pretty interesting proposal" I murmured before thinking.

My intuition told me this opportunity to actually work was over 80%. But I didn't come here to do this kind of business and he was the one who guided the conversation to this point, so the family's approval is still quite doubtful.

In addition, some of the recipes that Dirae utters roughly cannot be guaranteed to work 100%. And the issue of side effects as well as safety is still worth a doubt.

After weighing many aspects, I nodded silently.

"Well, I'll fulfill that because it seems to be beneficial to us as well."

If this works, the scope of the company may be able to penetrate into a hospital. And since we will also receive patients with mild disease symptoms at a more affordable price than what the Meica Family has done, we can compete.

Even if we don't want to take that aggressive approach, we can become a supplier to the Meica Family.

It can make the relationship between the two families closer.

Even though the condition worked was that what Durae said really worked. And hence—

"But I want you to show me a sample sample of the drug and I'd like to see the manufacturing process right now."

This is a condition for the premise of decision-making going forward.

"All right." Dirae answered confidently. "However, I need the help of an alchemist because my left hand is in this condition" he continued.
