I Shall Survive Using Potions!

271 Chamber of Commerce Battle 10

Lady, is Leia?

Yeah.

The guard commander asked Leia a friendly question.

Why are you here?

"Yesterday, these people told me 'I'll let you eat some delicious sweets' and brought me here."

But I made a mistake. And I've been here from yesterday to now. "

"Capture them! Tie them all up and pull them out!!"

Ahh, well, that's how it goes...

Leia said that "the promise was different", which probably means that the sweets were not "delicious sweets" according to the criteria of this child (Leia), perhaps......

"And it's time for us to show our faces..."

I don't think Leia would be able to explain it well.

Reiko, unmask the magic!

Roger that!

And jump in through the door... "

"Ahh, Leia, good work!"I've been asking the guards to search for you since last night when I heard you were missing!

Guard, thank you for saving Leia from the kidnappers!

If you hadn't helped us, you probably would have taken a ransom from us and sold it somewhere afterwards.I really don't want to thank you for saving me from the witchcraft of the vicious girl kidnapping and human trafficking organization! "

"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "!" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""!

At some point, the charges were swelling up, and the men screamed in amazement that they were becoming vicious criminals.

"You said you wouldn't mind if I didn't go back to the inn!!"

"It's Rhodirich who calls out to me like that..."

“There's no way I'm going to tell you the truth about the kidnapper's mastermind.

"And without thinking of being followed, I headed straight to the hideout..."Are you stupid? "

"Guuuu..."

"I can't even make a sound..."

Well, we actually found out about this place last night.

"... the real villains are Soitz and the others.The three of them were hired because they were deceived not to do such a terrible thing, and they only had to deal with children for one day.

Earlier, you tried to protect me..... "

Yes, they were the three who had their eyes peeled off with the expression, but Leia's words would be grateful to die.

In any case, if you do it badly, you're a capital offender.I was given the possibility that it would be a misdemeanor that could only be punished by a hundred beatings, and it is only natural that I would be grateful to rub my forehead against the ground.

Well, Leia, who only thinks of humans as Arinko, came up with such a thing. Maybe it was an all-night story that made her fall in love with these people.I wonder if Leia was promoted from Alinko to Hamster...

No, maybe the interaction with humans has deepened, and all humans could be promoted from Arinko to Hamster.She seemed to be very conscious of Mine, too, Leia...

Maybe this is a good trend.

If suddenly you're in a bad mood and mass murder... no offense, if you feel like humans are spraying insecticides... and the odds of doing something like that decrease a little bit, that's a good thing, yeah.

"Hmm, sure enough, this guy was trying to protect Leia when we stepped in."

I did hear the testimony.I'll put that in the report, so you can rest assured! ”

Three people bowed their heads in tears at the words of the commander of the guard.

Yeah, this would have been a pretty good piece of evidence.

The guards are nodding, too...

Meanwhile, Rhodirich and the others... "

"I don't know! We were just worried and peeking because we heard a child's voice from a supposedly deserted abattoir!"And I was about to beat the men to save the girl from the suspicious men! "

"Ahh......"

"It's too impossible..."

"It doesn't make sense..."

"There's no reflection..."

"Didn't I just say, 'I don't care if you don't go back to the inn!'?"The consistency with the statement of" "is completely incorrect......"

All the guards are quite well-received.

And......

"Ahh, no matter how much you explain to us, it's useless."We're supposed to catch criminals, and we're supposed to be better at judging and punishing them.

So we just report what we've seen and heard, facts and testimonies, and we're not in a position to judge the truth.I need you to explain yourself to the investigators. "

That's a very unusual thing to say.

Did Rodirich hear and understand that, or did he stop screaming desperately?

"Well then, please do the rest."If you need to testify, just let me know and I'll be right there...

At that time, these people may have asked for an irrational contract using Leia as a shield... oh, I have to report that to this city and the Commercial Guild of the King's City.These people belong to the capital city, and the head office of the Chamber of Commerce where they work is in the capital city.The instructions for the kidnapping may also have been given by the head office.... "

Oh no!

Rhodirichs opened their eyes in amazement at my words.

Yes, if that happens, the Chamber itself will be gone, rather than the seat of the next Chamber Lord.

A businessman who kidnaps and intimidates noble girls from other countries in order to force contracts in their favor.There is no way the king could have seen such a bad person causing a great deal of trouble with another country, and when such rumors spread, the Chamber would be over.

After all, I don't know when the shopkeeper will be captured and the shop will be destroyed.There are no stores that have a relationship with such a place or that sell on a hook.The risk of not being able to collect the money is too great.

And it won't be enough for us to turn our eyes to the suspicion of criminal activity.

... but I'm more likely to be happy with a deal where I pay the money back.

If the store crashes, I will pay you back for it.

That's what a merchant is.

"Oh, Rodirich and the others didn't say anything after they raised their surprise voice..."

Well, if it is an instruction from the head office of the capital city, our sins may be a little lighter, but if they do, the store will collapse and my family will get lost.Then it's only natural to think that we should be the only ones to suffer the sins."That's the truth in the first place..."

In the first place, it won't change much when my parents are involved.

Since he hasn't harmed the child, he probably escapes execution.If you can get away with it, it could be a fairly light sentence.And if you contact your father, you might be able to do something about bribery or political tricks.... think about that.

If my parents' shop is safe, I can get help if I become a criminal slave.All you have to do is get your father to buy you employment for the working period.And even after the punishment period is over, you can still get help.It's not unreasonable to expect that.

... I don't suppose you even think about the possibility of being caught off guard and cut off altogether.

It's a family problem around here, it's none of my business, and I don't know the strength of the family ties that I don't know, so it goes through.

And I'll leave the rest to the guards and take Leia home.

The destination is Little Silver, not the inn where Leia is staying.

Yeah, I need to give you a reward in the underground HQ.

"This really delicious food..."

Yes, "potions that look and taste the same as Japanese luxury sweets and have a slightly good effect on health".

You mean the potion is liquid? No, the sweets also contain liquid ingredients, so there is no problem.It's not like it's dried.

Moreover, in culinary terms, potion means "part" or "one serving".So, there's nothing wrong with that.If you say so, you'll pass the [God's Workshop] judgment.

... I've already had a girls' party with Reiko and Kyou-chan over and over again, and they've already proven their worth (Combat Proof), so you can rest assured.

No, of course, I've served a lot of food and drinks before.

Anyway, now that I've finished everything related to Rhodirich, it's okay for Kyou-chan to come back.

From now on, the Rhodirichs will not appear except in the guards, jails, and places where they work in lieu of imprisonment, and perhaps they will be sent back to the capital.In any case, you won't face Kyou-chan.

Even if I met you, I don't think I'd notice anything in common between Kyou-chan and the merchant Sarayet, so I guess it's okay to think about it first.

Alright, I'll pass on the reward to Leia as soon as I give it to you.



"Good job! I'm glad you helped me this time."

Yes, please eat to your heart's content! "

I went back to Little Silver to reassure the children about the resolution of the case, and then I went underground from my room and offered Leia food and sweets as a reward in Command.

"Then Leia looked at me..."

Hmm. But before you do, I'll give you the extra and the gold to solve it.

Dammit, don't you remember... "

Ceres and Leia can make anything, but they don't make 'money'.

Money is the embodiment of the credibility of the country, so it is different from making food and jewelry. It seems that if others make it, it is "counterfeit", because it is a fake.

I don't think it has much to do with the country's creditworthiness, because the value of this area depends on the gold content...

Well, that's why I don't make any coins, so I make my own money.

If you can't make gold, you can make jewels, gold nuggets, or even gold ingots, but if your daughter tries to exchange such things for cash, you're still better off if you call the guards. If you're not good at it, it's a course of confinement and torture rather than cash...Scoundrel ho-ho-ho-ho.

"It's OK to do it instead."If you want anything, don't hesitate to say it. "

”Nnh”

"Well, I don't think Leia would refrain from acting like an inferior creature..."
