A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 536: Preparations Part 1

The day after Sofia crossed over and discussed various things.

Reurus had been wearing a suit since morning and visiting the royal castle for the third time. Not only Natalia, but also Sofia, whose nobles and civilians on the first floor of the royal castle looked round.

However, Reurus and the others did not pay attention to the sights from the surroundings, and told him that they had a story about the “request”, which was passed between them.

"This is Baron Amondola and Baron Reurus. I saw you again yesterday. And... is the Marquis Farnes with you?"

And the Marquis de Fiori shows up when he waits for a while in between. The Marquis de Fiori glared slightly at Sofia's face, but quickly turned his expression back to calm and turned to Reurus.

"I heard that there was a story about your request, not about the name and crest of the Baron Quasi...."

It was the Marquis de Fiori who leaned his neck, but his eyes were slightly vigilant. There must be something about Sophia being with Reurus, not just Natalia.

"Yes... I've thought a lot about it, but I think it would be unjust for His Majesty to nominate me and not accept it."

"Ooh... do you think you'll accept that?

As Reus cut out the story, the Marquis of Fiori opened his eyes surprisingly and asked him to be vigilant. When he heard it, Reurus lifted the edge of his mouth to look invincible and smiled.

I'll take care of the monster hunt. The opponent was a dragon, but if I take him down, can I have his body? If you're a dragon, you'll be able to feed yourself. "

"Huh? Eat up?... but of course I don't mind. Oh, apart from that, I have a reward, and if you need to prepare, I have a support payment. If there's any hope about rewards, I'll ask....."

The Marquis of Fiori seemed upset to hear Reurus's remarks, but he quickly fixed it up and moved on to the reward story. Reus silenced the Marquis Fiori's words for a few seconds and scratched his cheeks embarrassed.

"It would be helpful if you could give me the money... No, Sophia visited us yesterday, right? Because I have a" contract "with the Spirit, I am in trouble if anything happens. I will not stop fighting, but I am angry at the very least that I have a means of treatment. I couldn't buy it because it was expensive, but I want to buy the magic medicine of" healing "."

"... hmm, Marquis Farnes did that."

"Yes, and you were poisoned the other day, right? I managed to be safe, but when I looked back later, I thought it was important to find a way to recover. Besides, if you look around King's City, there are a lot of things that are not on the border. I want that too, but even if I want this too, there's something ahead... right?

Reurus that makes a circle with your index finger and thumb while saying so. The Marquis de Fiori, listening with a gavel, stroked his chin with a bitter smile.

"Hmm... then I think it would be easier for the Marquis of Farnes to accommodate. The Catholic Church would be happy to support you if you were called the Spirit Man."

"No, I only have a 'contract' with the Spirit. I'll earn it if I have a chance to earn it myself. So the reward is money... of course, you can think of a reward that“ matches the difficulty of the request ”, right?

"It's only natural. As rude as that may sound, it would be cheaper to pay you a reward for moving the King's Army than to deal with it… Of course, even if it's cheaper than moving the King's Army, the reward given to one of the Barons would be dishonorable."

"Oh... that swells your dreams. Yeah, but it's hard to find me alone, and you want me to accompany the people I'm always with. It's very generous, but I'd be happy to get a reward for that...."

The Marquis de Fiori nods with a bitter smile.

"As long as it's on our side, I'll take care of it. However, it would be troublesome if the" Dragon Damage ”could be dealt with as soon as possible..."

"Let's do that. We'll leave in a few days. I hope the dragon hasn't moved."

Reurus, who responded to the hasty remarks of the Marquis de Fiori, looks a little sorry after a few seconds.

"Can I just ask you to wait a little longer about the family name and crest? I'm sure Aaron will be fine, but it's definitely not... if he dies, the process will be wasted, right?

"... if that's what you say, I'll do it. You made it back safely, didn't you?

"Yes, that's it... I just want you to be clear about“ stories like this ". The King's Capital is fascinating, but I want to build a town in the territory of Baron Amondola...."

The Marquis de Fiori nodded haughtily when Reurus looked dissatisfied.

"That's right, don't worry because trouble like this doesn't happen all the time... Ah, speaking of trouble, it's about the Viscount Doria. How should I deal with you while you're away?

"That's right... the Count Werg family suffered the most, so how about we leave it up to Baron Amondola to deal with it while setting up the Count Werg family? Ah, speaking of which, what about the spiritualists?

"I will do as the Spirit Man wishes. I've heard the story, and I swear to the Great Spirit, I won't break it."

"Now, with the help of Baron Amondola... the Marquis de Fiori will be all right, won't he?

To Sofia, who answers with a smile, Reurus also answers with a smile and shakes the story to the Marquis de Fiori. The Marquis de Fiori nodded with a faint smile, even though he looked distressed for a few seconds.

"... so? Is that really good?

Reurus, who had left the royal castle, stepped into a carriage operated by Nicolas and threw such a question at Natalia, loosening the neck of the suit. A large leather bag was held in the hand, and a heavy sound was heard when the reus was placed on the floor of the carriage.

It was quickly handed over as a support money for preparation, but there were fifty large gold coins inside - money worth about fifty million yen in the sense of a revulsion, and if you shop at a shop in King's City, it was said that you would pay twice as much as a support money, so it was kept quiet that you wanted to pull your cheeks.

Natalia nodded bitterly at the words of Reurus, who asked, wondering if there really was money in there.

"I'm sure there's a compromise there, and that's enough."

"I'm telling you... I feel like I'm a little bit of a gold widow."

"You seem to have acted with a lot of enthusiasm.

Natalia laughs like that. Sophia rides in the carriage, pointing her lips somehow frustrated.

"I was able to pull a little more reward... but will you still have the right to hunt monsters in other territories?

"No, if you think about it carefully, it looks like it's going to be used for something like this, and I don't need it."

"Shit...."

The appearance of Sofia, who took her gaze away from Reurus and slapped her tongue, was Gala's evil, which, by mistake, did not seem to be the lord of the Marquis.

The right to be able to hunt monsters in other territories seemed to be “delicious” as a reus, but I didn't want to fit in with a “similar technique this time” such as "because a strong monster appeared in either territory and I was a Gregorian when I went there."

I don't think I'll ever do it again, but I can't stand being thrown back into a dangerous place.

This time only, I will take the “mouthpiece" of Sofia, but I will not dare to jump into a dangerous and troublesome place.

"In the meantime, this is the kind of story that I got permission from Mr. Sofia, and I think it's good."

"Assuming you've heard the gossip, but not the others, if you say anything, I'll handle it. I'll tell you that spirituals nearby are more troublesome and troublesome than faraway Gregos."

That's what Sofia tells you, whether it's a joke or not.

"But if you really want money, I'll accommodate you. I see... if I solicit a donation from the Cathedral, I will gather“ that amount of money ”immediately, and if anything, I will put a lot of gold in your head."

That was Sofia pointing to the cloth bag that Lewis threw out, but Lewis shook his neck sideways with his face.

"I will receive a reward commensurate with my request, but I don't need the money collected for that reason. I don't have a stepsister."

"... I talked to the Marquis of Fiori like I was weak to gold, so pull harder."

What are you going to do with gold? Reurus looks stunned. Then Sofia smiled like a prank.

"Oh, by the way, that's true, right? If you want, you'll collect that kind of money, and if you look at it personally, it might be a lot of money, but if you're a nobleman with that kind of territory, it's not a lot of money.

"It won't be good to be greedy... I'm not going to do what I told the Marquis de Fiori, but for now, I need enough money to buy magic potions and stuff. And I want" Magic Stone. "

With that said, Reurus came up with the "Magic Stone" that Natalia used before. It would be nice to kill the monster and eat the meat, but if you could get the "Magic Stone", which is also known as a mass of magic, you wouldn't have to go out of your way to hunt the monster around.

However, since the price of "Magic Stone" varies greatly depending on the quality, it is difficult to buy without obtaining a large amount of money like this one. I couldn't buy the money I had originally saved, but there was no one in Speranza or Laval to sell Magic Stones.

Instead of waiting for a merchant dealing with "Magic Stones" to visit, I thought it would be faster for the dwarf to mine them.

"... well, let's set aside the rewards. The problem is Mr. Gilba... I told you we'd leave in a couple of days, but are you sure you want to arrive?

I don't mean to say that money is dirty, but as a revulsion, immediate combat power is more important than future rewards. So when she asked Sofia, she turned to the universe with her fingers on her lips.

"My calculations suggest that you'll arrive late for your departure, right? As soon as possible..."

As soon as Sofia said that, Nicolas's carriage slowed down suddenly. And when Reus looked at something, he saw a figure ahead of the carriage.

"I thought you were coming tomorrow... but... you're here."

Gilba stood there looking at Sofia with Reurus in her face.
