"Hey, that was really helpful this time"

"It's for a friend. If you just give me the money and I can fix it, I'm willing to help."

The location is the private room of the 'Virgin' in Winkia, the capital of the Principality of Ishgalia.

Yesterday he responded despite a sudden call and guided me to my private room and lent me even money.

"I would have liked to accommodate you more if it were true..."

"The only money we were free to use was Alley."

Next to Mr. Mishrina, Mr. Claudia stands like a secretary, putting sweets and tea in front of us.

Sonia is cheeky in front of Rio who couldn't eat to make us guests.

"Oh, was that money a personal asset?

I thought it was funds that I had negotiated and accommodated with the state after all.

"You can't imitate an adventurer by lending him instant money, even though he's a very grateful opponent."

Mr. Mishrina is laughing at Couscous and my words.

It's understandable that you can't easily lend money to an adventurer, but you can't believe the amount is just the amount.

"I got 100,000 copies accommodated this time..."

There are 100,000 gold coins borrowed from Mr. Mishrina.

I just thought it was something the state put out for me because no matter how much 'Virgin' it was, it wasn't the kind of amount that I could twist personally.

"Then you should return it soon, right?"

We need to figure out how we can get a lot of money in our hands as soon as possible.

"You don't have to do that. You don't need any interest, you just have to give it back."

"Huh..."

Too incredible a word.

But only Illis noticed the discomfort hidden in the words.

"Where did you get that money from?

"... it's a bit of money you can't put on the table"

"I knew it."

Knowing the answer, Illis held his head.

"In the Principality these days, fraudulent religious groups have been operating."

"What, in this country?

It is incredible in itself that there are emerging religions in a country where the 'Virgin' is spreading in the hope of peace of mind of people with strong power.

"Yes, it's true"

When I looked at Mr. Claudia, he nodded that it was true.

"The trouble is that it involves nobility."

"It's about running an emerging religion, isn't it?"

"Exactly."

It is not impossible to set up an emerging religion if you are a nobleman with strong vested interests.

They have the knowledge to stand around not to be known to the royal family, as well as the know-how to start a new organization.

He was sneaking up on emerging religions to be unknown that way.

"It's a terrible story. If you only wind up money from believers, you end up treating them like objects to the lives of believers and switching them to gold."

It seems to be an organization that has been moving around for a long time.

"But I could often notice such an organization"

"Totally coincidental on this"

Ms. Mishrina of the 'Virgin', an important figure for the Duchy of Ishgaria, needs to leave her offspring behind. Although the role of "Virgin" is not always handed over to direct descendants, it tends to appear to those close to the royal family, who were expected from around them to be the next generation of "Virgin".

Mr. Mishrina was already approaching the right age.

"My father introduced me to the Count of my age."

"How was it?

Within the first, the matchmaker who treated me favorably.

I have found the best among men my age in the first place, thinking of my daughter whose father has made her take on the heavy responsibility of 'Virgin'.

The opponent is a young man who has just succeeded to the title from his predecessor, the Earl. However, not only lineage was appreciated, but his excellence was appreciated from all around him.

Mr. Mishrina also had a real fondness in the beginning.

"But you seem alarmed that you've mistaken me for being yours too. I found some documents that were controlled by the dozens."

The documents were an indication of engagement with emerging religions.

Concerned, Mr. Mishrina began to look into his opponent, and came to know that his ultimate purpose was the overthrow of the state.

"It's not just the funds we collect from believers. Some of the funds were assisted by nobles."

Some of them included the method of obtaining them too dangerous to be taboo.

That's who the money was given to us.

"Did you give me that stuff?!?

"Isn't there no choice? It's dangerous just to have it."

"Return it to its original owner..."

"Most of the funds are unexplained funds. There are too many people involved in trying to give it back to everyone who seems to have been harmed."

I came where I was in trouble.

Just so we're clear, it's like being pushed.

"Now the physical evidence is gone. In the future, I would like to repay you if you could help me by, for example, facilitating a highly effective recovery drug."

I might be able to make some unscrupulous demands.

Still, I'm sure this time I was helped by the fact that I got a loan, so I'm willing to help if I came here looking for help even in the sense of rewarding you.

"So, what happened with that matchmaker?

"I can't help it"

"Instead of saying, he's now being stripped of his title and imprisoned"

"Huh..."

If you plan to overthrow the state so much as to say Count, you will be punished.

Rather, it seems easy to know the punishment in the Gardis Empire only by stripping him of his title and imprisoning him.

"So what do you do?

"My father has been cautious, and the story of the pageant is going to weigh itself down for a while"

However, they want children, Mr. Mishrina.

"That's right. I'm not thanking you for financing it, but can you let me see Noel and her daughter?

"Fine."

"Thank you. I was thinking about going again in the spring, but I couldn't go to see her because I was too busy, so I was looking forward to seeing her."

Summon Noel with [Summon].

Noel, who was holding Riel at the time the topic came up, appears.

Liel, held by his mother, is awake and surprised by the suddenly unusual scenery.

"Wow, you're bigger than I saw you before."

It's only been a little over three months.

I look at my hand stretched out towards me and close my eyes and circle my body small. The fox ears are PETAN and the tail has also lost its power.

"Could they have hated you?

"That's not the point. You'd be surprised if suddenly someone you don't know showed up in front of you. For this child, the world is still complete only with his family."

A family with a dozen people to say what it is.

I have always been timid of people I just don't know when I'm dealing with a lot of people.

Well, this is what it would be like in a child.

"I'm sorry. But I'm glad you and your sister are getting along."

Did the gentle voice reach Liel as well. My ears and eyes are slowly opened and held by Mr. Mishrina without being resisted.

Liel, who keeps being held without crying.

"I knew kids would be nice"

"Huh..."

After doing so for a while, I began to grope.

Noel, his mother, quickly understood why he was crying.

"Did you miss your sisters?

Sierra is the closest thing in the family to Riel. It seems that Sierra herself intends to look after Riel on behalf of her busy mother, often playing with her siblings.

That's why I miss my sister when I'm away for a long time.

"Go home."

No reply.

Still fits into nature and Noel's arms.

"Oh, yeah! No matter how much dark money I loaned you, it's no different. It's just a matter of getting the interest for money with that. So if you let me hold you instead of interest, I'll write you off."

"This kid's not a thing, so no."

"Ahhh!

Mr. Mishrina also gave up on me for being pissed off by both Noel and Riel.
