Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"Was there anything else that bothered you?

Continuing, the hunter asks Teresa, who had a seemingly difficult look on her face.

Theresa then began to say the other question she had in mind as well.

"Earlier, the hunter shopped, didn't he?

Oh, have dinner tonight.

"Uhm. At that time, I think I used the currency... didn't I spend that coin on what's in circulation in Mid-Eden?

"Well, if you don't pay, you can't pay for it."

"That's where the concubine wondered. Well, when I got into this town, I thought about it from the moment I paid my entry tax?

"What do you mean?

And you didn't know what Teresa was trying to say, the hunter who leans his neck.

That, of course, seemed to be no exception to Beatrix, who also had a strange look on her face.

Apparently, they both take it for granted that they can use the same currency anywhere in the world.

"No? It should be natural to have different currencies from country to country, but I wondered why they could use the same thing. Have you both ever wondered about that?

"I haven't talked about that... I've never heard of it, and you never thought about it... Do you have any beatrix?

"No? Neither do I. Instead... I never spent money in the first place..."

…………

"... both of you... what's the matter?

"No... nothing..."

"Um, it's nothing..."

"That's two weird people..."

Because he was a rooted nobleman, or because he was born here, Beatrice, who never used money to buy or sell.

You thought dating her like that wouldn't keep us talking for long......

Teresa seems to have decided not to listen to it for now and decided to move on with her story.

"Later. Because concubines are not economists, I can't tell you the details... but the value of money should be different from country to country. There are various countries in the world that are powerful or weak, and naturally people's income should change from country to country. For example... suppose there was a country with a high average monthly income and a low monthly income? If goods are sold for the same amount in both countries... people in low-income countries shouldn't be doing it. The product should be too expensive to buy. Or if you think about low-income countries, people on the rich side of the world should have a rather luxurious life. So... at least every country has the same standard of living as the concubines have seen, Mid-Eden, Olija, and Boreas. The two of you, don't you feel uncomfortable about that?

In response to that inquiry,

"No... I never thought about it before..."

"Yep... same goes for me (this is the difference between me and Teresa...)"

and hunters and beatrices with a surprising look on their face.

Without prior knowledge of the economy, it was a story that might suffer a bit from understanding...... apparently, to the two people who have been educated in brilliance since they were little, they could understand Teresa's words, though they might be partial.

"But, Teresa? Isn't that not directly related to monetary talk?

"No? That's not true. There is a way to eliminate the economic disparities between a country and a country by making and distributing a currency that can be used by each country alone. Because that way we can separate the differences between the rich and poor among nations from the domestic economy and guarantee the lives of the people. Well... as far as I can tell, there's no such mechanism in this world. Isn't this computationally impossible? … unless a mechanism exists whereby the whole world creates a single economic system to absorb differences in economic activity, of…. Can you understand that?

"It's a little hard... I mean, that's it, right? For example, like the king capital of Mid-Eden, there are many people, lots of money concentrated where it is developing, and from other small towns, gold disappears in reverse... As a result, it's all central and the provinces are exhausted, right? And yet I'm not sure why, but the fact is, the money doesn't concentrate in one place... like that?

"It may be a little different than what the concubine is trying to say... but if we extend that to exchanges between countries, it might feel the same way. By the way, if you're referring to the flow of money in the country, there might be a return of funds from the center to the local area in the name of the public utility the state orders, right? Previously on South Fortress, there was a special budget for city wall repairs. (Occasionally, someone somewhere gets wasted making a fuss, blocking a sole, arguably an artery of economic activity in the country, and letting the region necrotize...) Well, leave that alone. Really... who and how is redistributing the funds flowing between states..."

"Hmm, in the case of Mid-Eden, Cortex seems to do well, but as for the interaction between countries... I don't know..."

"That's right... There are other questions about guaranteeing monetary value between states and who makes money... well, no matter how much you think here, you won't find the answer..."

"Next time, why don't you ask Cortex..."

and hunters who whine like that, remembering objects like transparent slime.

Apparently, Teresa's point made her wonder again why she hadn't noticed that before.

On the other hand, if you're a Beatrice, then...

"(Shh, that's awesome, Teresa... I would have liked to be like you one day... but the road sounds dangerous... I'll never give up, though!

Somehow, I let my eyes dwell on flaming things... and it seemed like I was staring at Theresa.

Note that noticing her gaze like that, about what Teresa thought... omit it.

◇

Meanwhile, around that time.

"... I haven't been here in a long time, so I forgot where the branch is. Does Zwei remember the place?

"Um... Sister Null? I, myself, have never been here..."

"Eh..."

Nur and Yuki B (Zwei), plus three of Eve, were lost inside the town of Ripa.

Ahead they were headed like that was supposed to be the building that intelligence units affiliated with the Boreas Empire are rooting for in this city......

But I can't remember Null himself guiding the road to where in this town there is a purpose building that hasn't been here in decades or so...

As a result, the three of them seemed to just grope around the town, not so big.

Then for over an hour, keep walking......

At the end of the day, when Null started to have a crying look......

"Um..."

Unexpectedly the three were spoken to by a little girl even smaller than Eve.

The appearance is the child of this town, said the atmosphere.

Such a question she asked against the tallest null of the three who wandered, looking somewhere reluctant.

"I don't think so... Are you, Master Sirius?

To that word,

"Yes, no..."

"" What... "

and Zwei and Eve, who turn their subtle gaze against the null of how they accidentally denied it.

Apparently, both of them had something fiercely to say to the national chapter that Nur carries on its back and its armor.

But the girl seems to have arrived at the opposite conclusion, even after hearing Null's words of that denial.

"And Master Sirius! I finally found it......! [incomprehensible]

The little girl hugging her, screaming Null's last name as she said so.

Then gradually, the color of the girl's hair and skin changed...... finally black wings appeared from her back.

"Sa, sacubus?! That means…"

And, null grumbling like I said half the surprising color, half the relief color.

To her like that, the girl said.

"Yes! I am Rosemary, an intelligence unit!

That's the girl with the full smile on her face.

Apparently, the Nulls have finally succeeded in meeting someone who will have important tips to get to their destination.
