"It's nice to meet you, Chevalier Secilia is the same…"
"I'm Ogusho, who is in charge of the trade business between the royal capital and the labyrinth city…"
"Ogusho deals not only with luxury goods, but also books and magazines from the royal capital…"
"You can ask this person if you want to look for items related to materials and books…"
Viscount Shimen introduced me to some of his noble friends and hired merchants during his banquet…
Nobles associated with nobles in the capital Duchy had a reasonable influence on the labyrinth city…
The hired merchant boasted full of confidence that they could even handle emergency missions as they had many employees owning [Item Box] and golem trains…
If I occasionally stocked various items from him, even if I used some rare items, the people around me would probably guess where I got them from…
From what I saw in the capital Duchy, there were two types of golem trains, one that had golem horse pulling carriage and another where the carriage itself was a golem…
The train looks like the last…
"Hou, golem train, huh…?"
"Yes, my carriage is the golem itself, so we are not disturbed even if monsters or thieves attack…"
"That's amazing…"
"Are there a lot of people riding the golem carriage in the royal capital…?"
Ogushi shi who was happy for me showed interest, telling me about various things…
"Let's hear, it's not something rare for a top nobleman and a rich man…"
"However, the core part rarely appeared on the market because it was something created during the era of Ancestral King Yamato…"
It looks like an automatic train that uses the magic power of riders like I always do…
Witches seem to have their own private chariots, but they make their disciples operate the chariots because witches don't like their magic power being depleted…
For some reason, Ogushi shi placed an unnatural gap there…
One of the listeners, a young man who was either a cousin or nephew of Baron Sokel who had knowledge of the matter entered the conversation…
"You know that the ruins were found five years ago in Kirik Earldom…?"
"As expected of Sir Sokel…"
"You have a great knowledge…"
"Chevalier Secilia, as you know, several power engines called Golem Hearts were found in the ruins that Sir Sokel mentioned…"
"Earl Kirik has given their heart to the royal family and every year, one of them is bestowed upon a Noble who has done a very good deed…"
Ogushi shi most likely intentionally did not talk about it in Kirik Earldom so Sir Sokel could easily join in the conversation…
I want to learn this kind of thing…
Nevertheless, I have heard some good things…
I have the Living Armor guarding the house above ground, I almost made a fuss…
"That's amazing…"
"Are such ruins often found…?"
"The discovery of ruins is really rare…"
"The previously discovered ruins are in the Zettsu Earldom mountains, but that's a story from 30 years ago…"
Looks like I better keep the underwater ruins I just found as a secret…
It appears that the aerodynamic engine sold at the dark auction was found from the wreckage of the airship with an unknown affiliation…
Since he dodged the unknown “affiliate section”, it doesn't seem to be really known…
The banquet was over without any calamity, but I was summoned by the butler san when I was about to board the carriage, and then I went to Viscount Shimen's living room…
I apologize to Totona, but she has to wait on the train for a little while…
I'm a little worried, but it doesn't seem like any fool would make trouble with Totona…
Bu Mitreuna told me that Totona was famous among noble servants as an armed maid who had defeated a great man in the western Guild…
"Chevalier Secilia, I'm sorry for calling you back…"
Viscount went straight to the main tree after a few words of apology…
"Are you familiar with the Viceroy of this labyrinth city…?"
"Yes, we've passed each other in the trading town…"
"Judging by the way you talk about it, there seems to be a problem…"
"The person was originally the heir of the Baronage house which was a branch family of the Marquis Ashinen house…"
I already have the information that Viscount told me from Toruma Memo…
However, I added some annotations to the known section…
It seems Viceroy succeeded as a Marquis by marrying the rightful Marchioness…
So, he could not keep the stash and turned towards the men and was immersed in gambling…
His recent fondness seemed to be waltzing in the underground arena of the trading city…
It seems like he made people kill each other illegally with a sword…
Moreover I was surprised to hear that he even expressively prepared a stage director to enliven the murder…
"Therefore, Marquis Ashinen starved for money to do what he wanted…"
"The person who gave him the money was his follower, Baronet Dyukeri…"
I see, that's why he likes bribes, yeah…
As compensation for providing the funds, it seemed like Marquis Ashinen had let Baronet Dyukeri have a monopoly on magic medicines and the sale of magic tools in the labyrinth city…
Except the explorer Guild…
He couldn't restrict the person carrying the items from the outside because it was under the order of the King's palace, but because you needed Viceroy's permission to open a magic shop and alchemy shop, he said, he was able to close the business competition…
He could not limit the small-scale sales of the stalls and the like, but if those stalls started to have tremendous sales, his wannabe explorer subordinates would come to them using force…
"Beware of Baronet Dyukeri…"
"He's a man who's willing to do anything to earn money and improve his home…"
It seemed like he was doing what he liked in this labyrinth city because he had the support of Marquis Ashinen…
"The man should have known that you were my acquaintance…"
"He probably won't start a fight, but the guy is clever…"
"Be careful not to get involved by the plot…"
I guess I shouldn't try to win her favor by using my cooking skills…?
Let's be careful to at least prevent Baronet Dyukeri from eating my cooking…
I left the Viscount house after promising to meet again at the Spring Kingdom Coference…
I was a little surprised that there was a man who was on the train where Totona was waiting, but it seems that he was the brother of Bu Miteruna…
It seemed like he was asking about the current condition of Bu Miteruna from Totona…
I gave him a thank you because he seemed to have given me things…
"Hoe…?"
"Countermeasures for Baronet…?"
"Yes, he is the one who will probably get us involved on some troublesome things in this city…"
"U ~ n, I think we can leave the subordinates alone…?"
I consulted Lina and Tiane who were beside me on the bed…
Everyone has their own room in this mansion, but for some reason they always gather in my room at night…
While speaking, I confiscated the stick candy that Tiane had hidden on his back…
Even though I warned her not to snack before going to bed…
Ciel and the others shed tears on Totona on the other side of the bed…
They tenaciously complained about how they came home while waiting for the promised hamburg steak, but Totona was nowhere to be found and there was a simple menu Bu Miteruna prepared instead…
I apologize to Ciel and the others along with Totona because I was the one who made Totona work as a coachman…
I told the two of them the content of the conversation I had with Viscount Shimen…
"Fuh ~ n, he is the one who controls drugs and magic tools…"
"Yes, right…"
"That guy has the worst reputation among explorers, you know…"
I imagine it will happen…
He was the reason why it was difficult to obtain the magic medicine that was their lifeline when there were so many magicians…
"Why don't you act secretly as a mysterious merchant in disguise…?"
"You'll destroy it if you sell good magic tools and amazing magic drugs, right…?"
What a man who likes to fight…
What do you mean by destroy…
"Wouldn't it be troublesome if I get tagged…"
"That's why you disguised yourself…"
"Not a Chevalier Secilia, but like, a mysterious merchant in black clothes, Bottakuru or something…"
The name is wrong…
You declare yourself as someone greedy by that name…
However, it might be a good idea to disguise yourself, use the name Shiro and open a magic tool shop…
And if I popularize the airship and Self Propelled Carriage as Shiro, I wouldn't be conspicuous even if I had one…
Let's think about this idea for a moment…
I lay in bed and made a new memo on the menu…
I decided to detail the advantages and disadvantages of the idea and examine them…
I was already covered by the little girl when I woke myself up, but I ignored her because it was the same thing as always…
Before afternoon, I came to Marquis Ashinen's house to attend a tea party…
Everyone other than Totona who is in charge of the train is currently power leveling with Iruna and Jenna in the labyrinth…
There's the Marchioness as one of the members of the tea party and starting with the wife of Earl Haku's younger brother whom I met yesterday, there's the noble's wife and daughter…
Most of them were married, only the two daughters of the Marchioness and the daughter of Viscount Gohat who was over 20 years old were unmarried…
The Marchioness princesses were the fat ones and the almost fat ones…
They looked like they were going to need servants to push them onto the carriage when they were riding on the carriage…
Another noteworthy member was Baronet Dyukeri's wife…
Unlike her husband, his wife's mood was like that of a poor girl…
If he wasn't fat and was around forty years old, he would probably be [Beauty]…
Apparently, they had a sickly son as his heir…
For some reason, the twin tail princess was absent…
It seemed like she was not feeling well, even though it was not like that energetic princess at all…
The fat second son of the Marquis pair did not come as well, but it was up to it…
"Well, is this Castella…?"
"It's even more delicious than a hotcake in the royal capital, isn't it…"
"Mother, I want to eat more…"
Castella is very popular…
Doing so far as preparing green tea is worthwhile…
And, what looks even more proud of me is the Marchioness…
He proudly refers to himself as the one who first introduced Castella…
It would be a good tea party if it ended like that…
It doesn't seem to be going well…
