"How about apple candy!?

On that day, I also went to "Fashion Agricultural City" with patience, mixed with the citizens and chopping up stalls... Speaking of decorations, what should I do if I can't put out a deficit in this kind of business as a daughter of the King of "Mephie Commercial Nation".

It was the usual routine I've been used to since I was a kid... but today you've met another unusual customer.

……

"... one?

"... (Chuckles)"

The girl in front of me, tapping me lightly on the shoulder and holding her index finger with her head tilted... she's almost the same age as me. She's not a civilian anyway.

The way you gently nod to my reply mixed with my light gesture is even more sophisticated than just standing there… No, it's too sophisticated (………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… I remember the illusion that the stack of history has been said to be different from ours for centuries.

... well, in any case, I think it would be the daughter of another country who has been patient, and even if I were a royal family, I would still be a small country with a shallow history, and if I were a nobleman of a country that has reigned as a power around me for many years, I wonder if it is this sophisticated.

"Yes, please."

"Ah, ahh... and...?

"Oh, can't you speak the language around here?

I stare at the girl in front of me... the long black hair that I put together behind my head is so smooth that I envy it, it has the gloss and shine of a ring of heavenly servants, and it's white that my skin has never burned in the sun... and my hands are not rough at all.

It's so uncomfortable that such a beautiful girl dresses unnaturally cheap... her beauty and clothes don't match at all.

He wears a deep casket hat and strange glasses... but instead of hiding his overdressed appearance, he makes me think, "I want to see more" and "I want to expose."

Even the clothes I'm wearing... are wearing a brown vest on a dress that the civilians around here often wear... but I don't know if it's the right size, the vest laces are going to be ripped off at the chest, and the waist laces for squeezing are actually too big a ribbon... and if this girl walks alone, she'll be attacked instantly...

Oh, what's wrong?

……

... well? I don't know if this lady from another country is a little out of place, but I think it's okay because she's got a strong escort here... but I haven't been able to be patient enough, and I'm starting to get rough watching.

"... did you come here on a trip?

Oh? Can you speak our language?

I'll talk to the lady who got the handkerchief from the guard.

This child has now spoken "the languages of Arousia", mainly used in the "Western Central Continent" … This land should have been the most prominent now that the crossings were led down by the gods and violent unrest continued in a short period of time.

... if this young lady seems slightly skewed and circumvented, if she can guide her well, she can easily give me that information ─ ─ and the knight of the guard is snapping at the tip of the sword?!

Wow! You're not suspicious! Come on, come on! There aren't many big cities in this country. That's why travelers inevitably bypass the village and other traders gather... so multilingualism is a must-have skill because of the many opportunities to interact with foreigners!

"... that's right, Sensio"

……

"... ho"

I'm glad... the Guard Knight has fallen back thanks to your daughter's help... Innocentio is a strange name... but let's not worry about it. Mm-hmm.

It's unusual to come at this time anyway, isn't it? Right now, it's only the Grand Duke election.

Grand Duke election......?

Did you know about the Grand Duke election?... I knew who the next Grand Duke would be, or the noble lady came to intervene in the election... No, he didn't know anything.

The Grand Duke election is about three candidates running for the presidency of the three cities surrounding the capital, or their successors in total, and the Grand Duke, the next prime minister, will be chosen from among them.... Especially since there is only one princess left in the present king, it seems that the next Grand Duke will be his fiancée... and each chamber of commerce seems to be strained. "

"Heh... it's like a constitutional monarchy."

Point your gaze towards the back of the lady while explaining how to roll it up quickly.

……

... perhaps, but this Guardian Knight... hides this ignorant and prominent young lady, and this silent Knight who has made it easier to move will be searching for something and working on it... that's not how it works.

If you don't mind, shall I guide you to this country?

Oh, is that good? How much is the reward?

"That's right... how about this? I'll keep it cheap.

This assumption may be wrong... but if there is a bud of conspiracy against my country in front of me, I can't keep my eyes shut.... because even decorative royalties with no real power love this country.

Ah, I'm Abby! Nice to meet you.

Really, I'm Reiko ─ ─

Reiko? That's a strange name!

"... that's right, it looks a little old."

For now, I can slip into the guiding role... and then I'll monitor the knight behind me while appropriately dealing with this young lady... * giggle *, it's inconvenient if you don't have real authority at this time.

Whatever I say about the conspiracy in other countries, you won't get along with Matomo, and there's no Knights who can move themselves freely... if you ask him (...), but I want you to focus on the election... and I have to do something about it.

I'll show you from this city first, please meet me in the square before noon tomorrow.

Got it.

─ ─ I won't let Dirk get in the way!

"You got a good interpreter and a hostage."
