Eventually he breaks the silence and Nielsen opens his mouth.
"Magic item… yes, but on that condition, it's a bit difficult."
That's a refusal word, even if it's not clear.
Ray clearly thought Nielsen would take on the suggestion from Dusker, but it was surprising to say no to that alone.
"Why? I don't think the terms are so bad right now."
"Um, Ray. Surely he's right, we can make magic items and what you call them. But that's very valuable, isn't it? It's not that easy."
"No, you didn't even tell Master Dusker to give you that much precious, did you? Then why don't we just use alchemy to make mass-productive magic items?
Having heard Ray's words, Nielsen exhales in a sigh of awkwardness, then opens his mouth.
"Our magic items and the magic items you make are identical in name, but they're actually completely different."
"... Really?
Ray speaking doubts.
In fact, from what Ray looked into, even if it said that the fairies make magic items, it didn't say anything about what it actually looked like.
That's why Ray had such doubts... all of them, including those other than Ray.
Having seen it, Nielsen explains the difference between the magic items that we make by opening our mouths and the magic items that the alchemists make, even though they seem a little annoying when they have no choice.
The difference between the two is that alchemists make magic items artificially if you ask me, while fairy making magic items naturally.
In terms of potions, alchemists make potions by adding magic to them using a variety of herbs and, in some cases, poisonous herbs.
Compared to that, a fairy's potion is like collecting herbs and adding minimal magic, and taking the time to make potions...
To be honest, I'm not sure Ray understands the difference.
I could only be convinced that it was something like that for now.
Still, for now, I only understood that magic items made by alchemists and fairies are different.
"So you're saying that magic items made by fairies aren't so easy to mass produce?
"Right. There's a lot more to it, but for now, I'm not wrong about that perception."
To Ray's words, Nielsen returns so.
I guess such Nielsen's words were unexpected for Dusker as well.
I was showing how shocked I was by the fact that I was out of plans.
A magic item made by a fairy would have been of great value if it had been available, so it would be natural to think so.
"When you do, you think it's hard to give magic items to this one?
"Right. I can't do it on less terms than I did earlier.... No, I can't say for sure without asking the length exactly, but I'm pretty sure."
Nielsen tells you exactly that.
The superior... I guess that's all the words I'm sure I can tell without asking the chief around.
Dusker, who was asked about it, was somewhere different from what he had originally planned, but the lord... it's not uncommon for him to be a lord of the Gilm on the border either.
More than that, I immediately open my mouth again to my thoughts.
"So, under what conditions, magic items here? Some means of buying…"
While I say that, I also think that probably won't work.
Gold is a necessity for the Duskers.
That's what supports the backbone of life, I can say.
… It was not that some of them, although really rare, lived in barter, but their numbers are definitely small.
Those duskers, but that's only because they're the duskers living in the Guild.
If you try being fairies like Nielsen, you basically don't need money to live your life.
I was wondering if buying it for gold is better than it is, and yes Dusker thought...
"That might be a good idea."
Words like that inadvertently leak into the room.
"Ray?"
Dusker uttered that word to Ray, are you serious? Point your gaze at something like that.
... Is this insane? It wasn't a glance like that, I guess, because Dusker trusts him so much about Ray.
To date, Ray has done a variety of things that normally seem impossible.
If so, I guess that's what you decided it wasn't strange to come up with something one-shot reversal this time.
Nevertheless, Ray didn't come up with an idea that didn't clap anything apart.
As far as how Nielsen has been since he came to Gilm, it wasn't such a difficult story to come up with that opinion.
"Nielsen. I was in the room before I came to this room earlier, and you looked all kinds of interesting, right?
"Huh? What? Suddenly.... Well, I wouldn't deny that."
Nielsen nods in surprise but honestly to Ray, who suddenly changes the subject.
If you try Ray, you don't know how long the Nielsens haven't been involved with the humans.
Of course, there must have been a lot in terms of pranks, as we currently do in the Trent Forest.
"Then I'll get the money from Master Dusker... no, if you sell a magic item, you can buy something interesting for the Nielsens with that money. I've never seen anything like it before. … of course, no matter how much, it's only for the money."
"Huh..."
The words out of Ray's mouth were unexpected to Nielsen... and at the same time natural.
Anyway, a fairy is a very curious being.
More than that, I couldn't do anything to satisfy that curiosity if they told me that I could get as much as I wanted - only as much as I could buy - and not react to it.
"What do you say? Especially here on the border. There's all kinds of stuff that you don't sell in regular cities and villages, right?
Nielsen gets very lost in such Ray's words.
The room was very attractive to Nielsen earlier.
So if you could possibly get all sorts of things like what was in that room, that was enough shock to shake Nielsen's mind.
... In fact, all the furniture, paintings, pots, etc. that Ray and the others had in the room earlier are top notch items and are not so easy to buy.
Anyway, that room was prepared by the lord of Gilm in Dusker.
In some cases, there is no place for poor quality furniture or fake works of art other than the room that nobles with higher titles than Dusker will use when they arrive.
That's why I decided it was dangerous in so many ways for Nielsen to be moving around in such a room at will.
"That's... um... but..."
Nielsen shows you how troubled you are to see.
Originally, Nielsen is only in such a position as a proxy for the fairy head.
I mean, you can't imitate things like Nielsen deciding everything just by his judgment.
Still, I guess Nielsen was chosen because the presence of Nielsen is still trusted among fairies... still, Nielsen is definitely a fairy too.
When curiosity or something that seemed interesting was put in front of me, it was only natural for me as a fairy to value it.
"and... I can't judge by myself for now, so I'll go back to the woods and talk to the chief."
Still, I should say that I didn't make a deal with Dusker just because of my judgment.
If you try Nielsen, it was true that this one case was very attractive, but still because it temporarily interrupted the negotiations in this way.
Nevertheless, if Dusker is currently asked if he agrees lightly with that opinion in a favourable situation, then it's another story…
"Even if they say so. This one's busy. If I could, I'd like the negotiations to be concluded on this occasion now..."
"I can't. Mm-hmm! In the first place, if I decide to do something here, it doesn't make sense unless the chief acknowledges it."
"Admit it, it's all right, isn't it? Then if Nielsen nods here, it will be the fairy's will. Didn't I?"
"Still, you can't have anything you can't do!
After that, we'll share our opinions with each other for a few minutes.
That Dusker can judge Nielsen on this occasion more than Nielsen has been depositing his full powers.
Though Nielsen is quite strongly attracted to that word of Dusker, judging by the current circumstances, it will be unsavory later... specifically when scolded by the chief, he decides so to suspend the negotiations.
Naturally, we don't move on beyond just saying our opinions to each other.
In the meantime...... eventually, Dusker opens his mouth in such a way as reluctantly.
"Okay. If Nielsen is going to say so much, let's say this negotiation is temporarily suspended. I was supposed to finish everything with today's negotiations. If Nielsen says so much, let's just say I'm leaving too."
This is why we stopped the negotiations this time because Nielsen says so much about it.
Ray is convinced to see how Dusker tells him so.
(Will you be grateful for this, so that we can move forward with the next negotiations in our favor?... but whether Nielsen understands that or not is another story)
If this turned out to be a normal human being, Dusker's bargaining skills would have worked well too.
But now the negotiator is only a fairy.
Ray's impression was that if Dusker here thanked Nielsen, it seemed to Ray that way when he negotiated with no apparent concern that that had happened at the time of the next negotiation.
... Ray didn't even know if that was actually going to happen.
"Really? Well, that would help if you did."
Nielsen doesn't seem to care about Dusker's words at all, but instead shows only delight that he was able to interrupt the negotiations once.
Though Dusker showed such a slight loss to Nielsen's appearance... he can't imitate it any more than he has already spoken for himself.
"Yes, it's a corner... and in order to explain one thing to the chief, if negotiations are concluded, will you have something for me to buy with gold? If I show you that, you'll understand what this negotiation meant."
"Don't bother if they say so suddenly. There are many kinds of things that can be bought with gold. What the hell do you want? I have a problem with very expensive items here, but I can prepare them here if they are to some extent."
"Um, something. There's no such thing as this, is there? Take care of it properly."
It was a delicate request, but I don't find it unpleasant because Nielsen's appearance is very adorable.
I guess it's because I'm still a fairy around here.
Nevertheless, Ray, who watched such an exchange, opens his mouth with a fuzzy doubt.
"It's nice to take all kinds of stuff, but how are you going to take that?
"Ugh..."
You remembered reality in one word Ray, Nielsen's movement stops.
If you try Nielsen, given your size, you won't be able to hold that much baggage.
"Ray...... please"
What Nielsen ultimately chose was a plea for Ray.
Ray has mysteries, so that's what I can carry without any problems with any kind of luggage.
Is that what you think? I thought Ray...
(Is that it? Did you use mystering in front of Nielsen?
I think so, but in Ray's case, I use Mystering normally at all times.
More than that, I decided that maybe I had used it before I even knew it.
Normally, mistering… valuable magic items like item boxes don't do things that easy to use in public.
Because, naturally, those who desire it will attack them.
... In fact, Ray has also been attacked many times.
But in Ray's case, he was repelling all the opponents he attacked.
And now that we have aliases, and Ray's strength is widely known, there are considerably fewer people coming at us.
Either way, Ray didn't seem particularly concerned about what was going on around him, and he was using mystering.
