Diamonds are the ones that caught the most attention in the place where the gems were kept together.
The sparkling diamonds were put in thicker glass cases than any other item, and there was always one of the servants sticking around.
Definitely the biggest eye-catcher in the auction.
"It's a beautiful gem."
Sylvia also looked at it with a lucid look.
It's just not as tense as when I was looking at antiques like that earlier.
I don't think I want anything that I admire as a woman.
"Oh, that's worth a lot."
When I tried using [Appraisal], the rank was indicated as B.
That's not all. Gems have the power to capture and accumulate surrounding magic inside. Apparently it had been buried for decades in the labyrinth. Diamond took a long time to capture the magic and went with the diamond larger.
[Magic Conversion] That diamond will give you a lot of magic.
"That sounds like a pretty good value to me."
Looking at the diamonds, a man stood next to him and watched the diamonds come to his voice.
The man was in his thirties or so. The man was a handsome man with a refreshing smile that flushed his blonde hair back on his slutty long body.
"Yeah, that's right"
"My name is Garland Ament. Excuse me, but let me see your casual interaction with His Majesty the Emperor earlier."
They were watching me greet Rio.
I was watching other people's greetings, so it's not a problem to be seen.
However, I should have looked unusual talking in a shattered tone in the midst of a lot of people trying to be a little intimate with the new emperor.
"You're an adventurer."
"Yes."
It's also wrong to deny it because you've caused trouble when you just entered the party venue. It could be more troublesome to be found out later that you are an adventurer.
Intention to come and talk to me knowing I was intimate with Rio.
"I just inherited my lord from my father three years ago. We want to get along with the new emperor."
"So you want me to mediate?
"Can't you ask for it?
Mr. Garland is asking for it only from bad.
It cannot be an attitude of nobility towards adventurers.
I can be quite fond of his attitude, but I can't imitate anything that would annoy Rio, who will find himself even busier from now on.
"I'm afraid I can't mediate."
"Right."
Mr. Garland pulled back lightly.
"Actually, my territory is in the middle of a development right now."
If that's the case, I've changed the subject in a completely different direction.
"This time I came to the Imperial Capital because I was invited to a party, and at the same time, the goal was to find a brilliant adventurer and ask him to crusade the troublesome demons behind the pioneering land."
"You want me to do that," he said?
"I hear His Majesty the New Emperor was an excellent adventurer. Being at a party like this with the same adventurer, it would be him who invited him out of an exchange with His Majesty the New Emperor. I'm not inviting you to a party just because you were close. Probably beneficial to you personally."
... sharp.
I was just talking to him personally and he's been searching for a lot.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to explore there"
"... maybe it'll make the new emperor weak."
"I'm not going to be stupid enough to poke a snake out of myself and get bitten. You should stay at a moderate distance from him. If I want to narrow my distance, it has to be after I become more intimate, like you. If even his weakness is something to grip and stand on, he will destroy everything I have. Just like some Count destroyed himself."
Mr. Garland knows that the foolish Count, who poisoned and threatened Mr. Nelia, was solemnly cleared of the clan royal party.
Even if you hold a weak taste, Rio will do everything in his power to ravage your opponent before embarking on a solution.
If the Count knows what end he has followed, he will not consider gripping weakness unless he is also a self-destructive aspiration.
"The territory I inherited from my father is important. I'm going to do anything to protect the territory, but I'm not going to imitate anything that would lead to the destruction of the territory."
Sounds like you're not going to be hostile to Rio.
Probably looking for a good adventurer sounds true.
"Can I trust you?
"At least with the ink of the new emperor."
That seems to be all I can trust for Mr. Garland.
Exhale. To be clear, if the subject of the crusade is somewhat troublesome, it shouldn't have to be us. I don't want to imitate anything that would deprive other adventurers of their jobs.
But Mr. Garland mistook my sigh for meaning.
"Let's give the reward a gem"
"Gems, is it?
"Looks like my grandfather had a hobby collecting gems. There are many gems left untouched in my mansion. There must be dozens of pieces of white gold left behind."
Mr. Garland's right index finger had a ring with white gems.
- Been!?
In front of him, I'm surprised at the Rank S ring while trying not to represent upset.
"Sorry, I can't give you this."
"Is it something thoughtful?
Sylvia asks to follow me by surprise.
"This is an important ring that those who inherit the Amentes have inherited from generation to generation. I'm sorry, but I can't just give you this."
An ancestral ring.
You can't ask me to give up such an important item.
Mr. Garland owned gemstone scattered bracelets, pendants raised from his neck and other gemstones. It's a gem that seems to be worth a lot of money to the amateur of something inferior to a family heirloom ring.
"It's also on the edge of something that we met here. If you don't mind, could you take on a demon crusade?
"I'm sorry, but I can't because I'm taking on another request from His Majesty the Emperor now."
"Right."
I'm afraid I'm going away, Mr. Garland.
"Couldn't I have helped you out a little bit?
"That's right..."
It could have been a failure to get in the way.
He seemed like a good person for a nobleman, and it might have been a good idea to take on a request with the intention of helping people.
"If you're looking for adventurers at the end of the auction, I'll help."
"Yes."
Sylvia also smiled and nodded that she liked Mr. Garland.
"Sounds fun."
"Ira......"
Ira with a tired look.
Melissa and Illis stood next to each other to support them.
"Was it fun?
"Uh..."
"It was fun."
Melissa and Iris also had a tired look somewhere.
I had asked the three of them for a job. Less than I was going to split it it between me and Sylvia.
"How are things at work?
"I've hung [appraisals] on all the items that will be auctioned. The results will be announced in [Labyrinth Tone]. I was talking to a lot of different people, so I wasn't able to do so much, but the two of them worked hard."
"Helpful"
I'm sorry, but I entertained the party.
We enjoyed a variety of dishes and were able to relax and admire antiques and gems for viewing purposes.
Besides, I also knew Mr. Garland, who seemed nice to people.
"I will make sure of this filling. Say anything you want me to do."
"Right..."
"You're all three hungry. It's a party dish, but eat and cheer up."
Soon Sylvia, who had put all sorts of dishes on her plate, handed her the dish with an unbridled smile on her face.
I felt sorry for her.
"Say anything I can."
"Right..."
I get a beautiful tone in Ira's ear thinking about her wishes.
Someone who was able to bring an instrument to the venue came in and started playing, and when some of the lighting went down, it got dark.
"With that said, you said you'd be able to dance in a while. That's why Sylvia's punishment is the first thing that leaps with Mars among us."
"Duh, why!?
"I want to dance at a party too because I practiced so much. But I don't have the courage to jump first."
Yesterday, I had Marie and Melissa practice the dance because I was attending the party yesterday.
Not only was Marie one of the skills she needed as a con artist, but she was able to dance in the midst of a decent education in the side room, which meant that Melissa was learning at an early age.
"I don't mind."
If you have to dance with all of them anyway, it doesn't change who you leap from.
I've been practicing hard, so if it's enough to make amends, it's cheap.
Take Sylvia's hand and move to the center of the hall.
"It's Sylvia's vacation today, so make sure you escort her."
The moment I leave beside the Ira's, I get the pronunciation.
It's punishment. He always thought about Sylvia, who cooks and cleans for them as he says what it is.
