Maou Gun Saikyou no Majutsushi wa Ningen datta

Returning to the port of Zenobia, Julia was the one who welcomed me the most.

"Dear Ike, I wish you well."

And the human eye also hugs me in the first place.

The sailors will tear it up, and her breasts will feel like nothing.

Satti's also kind of staring at this one more than usual, and it's uncomfortable.

When I let her go,

"The lady before the dowry is not a good act in public."

and be careful.

She said, "Yes!" He followed me with a hard smile,

"Well, I'm going to do it where no one's around."

And leaked an invincible statement.

…………

In a way I feared a more rigid statement than the pirates, but we got into the carriage that Julia had come on.

to the house of Eltoria, the lord of Zenobia.

The reason she didn't come to the port, that was because she was "busy working".

They're still forcing me to schedule minutes.

He just seems to be taking the time to meet me and get to the negotiating table.

That it's also giving me all the time this afternoon.

I guess that's how much you owe me for the Kalsa crusade.

I was going to ask you to make a treaty with the Demon King's Army as favorably as possible with the trade material.

The clerk's office of the Eltorian hall in Zenobia, when you go there, you can be hugged by Eltoria at the aperture.

"Oh, my son-in-law."

and -.

For the rest of my life, she's happy with the report of Carosa's exorcism, but I never dreamed she'd suddenly be hugged.

A woman named Eltoria is Julia's mother.

She should be quite old, but she's a pretty attractive woman.

It smells very good because it has perfume on it.

I guess it's a guy called the charm of an adult woman.

She's an attractive woman in a different way than Julia.

But I never dreamed I'd get a hug from two attractive women almost at the same time on the same day.

And from my mother and daughter.

Unexpectedly I was concerned about the difference in chest feel, but I am a gentleman, so when I asked him to leave Eltoria, I decided to get down to business.

"As promised, I've caught Carussa with a red beard"

When she regains the expression of a sober merchant,

"Oh, I see."

I said.

"No way, though I didn't expect you to bring it alive"

"Excuse me. I was educated by my grandfather not to kill extras."

"I have nothing to apologize for. Their procedure will be done here."

"... are you still tied up"

"No," Eltoria shook her head.

"I also find it tempting to defile the bridegroom and bride's doorstep with pirate blood. My men are sentenced to 10 years in prison, and Carosa is sentenced to life."

And I joked and said.

- Mr. Hans said the same thing.

And I laughed bitterly, but she grins as she responds to it, too.

"As far as I'm concerned, it's not meant to be a joke. Well, we'll talk about that later.

Now we should talk about a treaty that can be arranged between the Demon King's Army and the Trade Union. "

…………

I'll be silent.

I've been put off like Sephiro before, but it seems like I could finally get down to business.

Eltoria, the leader of the Trade Union, affirms in a clear tone.

"We think we can provide food to the Demon King's Army,"

"Is that true?

"Oh, merchants lie, but they keep their promises. If we make a treaty, we'll fulfill it."

"You can accept that as the head of the trade union."

"Oh."

and she answers briefly, then supplements.

"There is, of course, opposition within the Trade Union. But shouldn't we have been bonding with the Demon King's army for a long time now? There was also an opinion that"

"Did you have that opinion?

"Surprised?

"Yeah, well."

"That's licking merchants. A creature called a merchant is hard to aspire to. Naturally, I'm determined to bet on those who are more likely to win"

"But the target is the Demon King's Army. Aren't you afraid of the Demons?

"I'm not afraid, when it comes to lying. But just because you're afraid doesn't mean the Demon King's Army will lose, nor will the cities of the Trade Union be richer. Plus, there's all kinds of information coming in from the city you rule, Ivaris."

"Is it from my city?

"Oh, yeah. The rulers of this city are not like the demons they have been before. No, now the Demon King is something completely different from the previous Demon King, he said. The point is, you're going to be a businessman, and the story has become famous among businessmen."

Indeed, there are many merchants in and out of the city of Ivaris.

It pays a proper consideration to the merchant and also guarantees his safety in the territory.

I was aware that the merchants were gathering from all over, but the rumors seemed to be spreading in the ears of the executives of the trade union.

"The point is, the executives of the Trade Union think the Demon King's Army is going to win?

"Some people think so, to be exact. The point is, opinions are broken in two. There are two factions: the Demon King's Army is terrified, let's put our shoulders in the League of Kings and defeat the Demon King's Army, and let's secure a favorable position after the war through the present."

"... which was Mr. Eltoria, by the way?

"Me? I was treading that the Demon King's Army would win. I've noticed from the beginning that the General of the Demon King's Army has a different flavor and lid."

Keep smiling cheerfully when you say that.

"And since I met my son-in-law, that turned into certainty."

That being said, she gives me her arm.

I mean, it makes a trade treaty with the Demon King Army, I guess.

Thus, I succeeded in entering into the first trade treaty between people and the Demons.

In the hours that followed, the two of us discussed the content of the treaty.

The first thing on the agenda was not what to 'trade', but how to do it.

As we talked about earlier, there are executives on the side of the Trade Union who fear the Demon King's Army, and in the first place, you can't make a grand deal for political reasons.

"If you do that, it could be a pretext to buy resentment from the League of Kings and get attacked"

was Eltoria's valve.

I take it for granted.

I have a similar story in my previous life.

He's a crusader.

They have also attacked and worked looting the same Christian cities for the reason that they sent soldiers to neighbouring countries many times to conquer pagans, but did not fund pagan crusades.

People in this world don't do the same thing, I can't say enough.

No, on the contrary, if we can be dealing with the Demon King's Army, the King's Alliance will invariably hit the Trade Union.

The rich barn zone of the South and the right to trade in spices should look attractive enough to get your hands out of your throat.

Giving the Alliance of Kings a pretext here would be the worst choice for a trade union.

"So we can only make deals in secret, and we will continue to make deals with the Alliance of Kings. I want you to understand that area."

"Yeah, of course, I know that"

The point is, as always, Eltoria has declared that food aid will continue to be provided to the Alliance of Kings.

Of course, as the Commander of the Demon King's Army Brigade, I'd like to ask you to "stop," but I also understood her position, and if things were to happen as I mentioned, I'd have trouble with this one.

There is a risk that southern food will not be available at all.

Plus I met Eltoria, Julia, Hans, and all kinds of people in this city, but it wasn't my expectation that they would be caught in the war.

"I'm sorry. Imitate like you hang on both scales."

"No, I'd appreciate it if you could make a deal in secret."

It seemed true.

Now the food shortage at the moment, which was the concern of the Demon King's Army, will be able to be eliminated.

In the meantime, the conclusion that the two of them had drawn was that they would secretly have their food flown out while pretending to be merchants' personal dealings.

I'd love to use the ship to trade for a big deal, but it would be a big deal if it were exposed that a trade union ship was entering a city port under the control of the Demon King's Army.

We should have made careful arrangements here.

When the two of us came up with a proposal for about an hour later, reference was made to the 'traded goods'.

The Trade Union will be offered cereals and spices in that season, but what should the Demon King's Army offer?

I'll ask her.

She instantly said,

"Weapons"

I let it go.

"I'm listening. I hear Lord Gunter, King of Dwarves, is staying in your city right now."

"-Mr. Eltoria is really fast."

"The city of Ivaris is reputed to be the hottest right now. He said it was transforming from an agricultural to an industrial city. And I hear you've developed an odd weapon. I want that."

…………

I know you're referring to a fire rope gun, but I'm lost in the answer.

The fire rope gun was discovered all over the continent at once in the Arsenum rescue the other day.

I didn't need to keep it any more secret now, but so far I haven't caught up with the production of the firearms.

I have no choice but to deploy it to my own brigade, and I have not finished distributing it to the rest of the brigade.

It would be too early to use such objects as merchandise.

But they want weapons.

I can't even go unhindered and say no.

It's not a compromise, but I'll ask.

"Speaking of which, magicians seem to be a must in naval warfare in the area."

"Exactly. It's a classic way to magically punch stones into each other in ranged battles."

I also thought of it the other day in the Battle of Carosa, and when I started farming in Ivaris, but because magic is poorly developed in this world, there are some places where technology is less than medieval in the world of previous life.

Still no gunpowder manufactured, and no cannons even grated.

I suppose that's why the profession of magician is being entertained.

Anyway, I decided to make a suggestion to Eltoria.

"What if I said I could halve the number of magicians on merchant ships?"

"Thank you for that. It pays dozens of sailors to hire top magicians. Can drastically reduce shipping costs"

"Now, let's provide a weapon that can be stoned and halved by personnel magicians."

With that said, Eltoria frowned.

"Do you really have a weapon like that?

"Yes, I say cannon"

When I saw the battle the other day, I thought,

That as long as we had artillery, we would be able to reduce the sorcerer.

"Cannon? That's a weapon you've never heard of. What kind of weapon is that?

"In a large cylinder of iron, put a large iron bullet. Blow it with gunpowder and crush your enemies."

"Joo, is that a big version of something like that?"

"You can think of that."

It's hard to mass produce a fire rope gun. In fact, even in the world of previous life, cannons were more practical than guns.

Because the structure is easy to build and can be manufactured more easily.

It's harder to miniaturize today and in the past.

A cannon would allow even human craftsmen to produce mass.

You can turn that around to exports.

I thought so. That's what I suggested, but the proposal delighted Eltoria more than I expected.

"The boulder is my son-in-law. Instantly understand what they want and provide it. You could be top notch merchant."

When you say that, you hug me again.

Once again, its rich breasts adhere, but anyway, this brings together the secret covenant between the Demon King's Army and the Trade Union.

Congratulations, Eltoria has made this suggestion, embracing me.

"Well, now the pact has come together, and you've decided to do it later."

"Is that what you do?

"Oh."

and Eritrea put it all out, "It's an engagement announcement party with my daughter," people smiled badly.

"... are you sure you want to do this?

Eltoria smiles like my boss, Sephiro,

"We don't make a treaty unless we do it - it's a big lie, well, it's my idea that we can't make the treaty public, but we want to throw a party to celebrate it as much as we do"

And I ran out.

I see, then, was this man willing to make a treaty from the beginning?

Otherwise I wouldn't be able to prep a party or anything.

No, maybe I really had my daughter's engagement party ready.

I can't even weigh that neighborhood.

Over the years, we've traveled to and from the battlefield, and now we know what our enemies think, but there are still places where we don't know what women think.

Perhaps you'll never know for the rest of your life, but anyway, I decided to join the 'Convention Signing' party.

That would be the minimum courtesy of a human being who has come as a messenger of the Demon King's Army.

With that in mind, I was urged by Eltoria to dress up.
