"Oh, you're in the mood today."
"You can stay here until this afternoon. Let's get you in the mood."
"You're the same, wahaha..."
Mr. Rob laughs lavishly.
"- Huh."
Mira exhaled beside me in a good mood.
"What's going on, Mira?
"You know, was it Sharazard? You know that rumor of a dragon as big as that idiot is growing?
"No, after the dragon pick-up ritual, I was in the moving-country, and I haven't been out of town lately with all my training."
If you don't walk, there's no rumor in it.
"Rumor. No, you heard me, too. Even when I was a Souranian maniac it was amazing, but also this time. If you think Shalazad's paintings are starting to show up, they've even left more than one of your phonies."
"Ha!?
What's with the phony? I mean, mine?
"... I knew you didn't know. I know because everyone watches Sharazard, but in your case, it was farsighted, and until you brought in the dragon, you weren't getting that much attention in college either. Looks like no one remembers his face properly."
"So you're a phony? Why again?"
You're gonna do something that doesn't make sense?
"Borrowing scams for penniless food and beverages... it's cute stuff, but they caught the guys trying to figure out the young women in town."
………………
Rob says that a phony who named himself Leon and solicited donations or tried to take a woman has surrendered.
And there's more than one.
"I didn't know."
"I guess that's what the college protects you from. The people of Wangdu are not fooled because they know, but the merchants who have recently arrived and those who are still young are fooled."
That's tough.
"I don't know if I can handle it"
I feel sorry for the deceitful.
"There were times when you were a Souranian maniac six years ago. It seemed like a young woman was turning up the fever at that time. I heard there was a lot of damage. In your case, you've never been on the table, and you're plain, so I think you'll settle down."
"Are you sure?"
They said it was plain.
It's better than being told it's flashy, but they said it's plain.
"The people who did the big deal are under arrest. You must be a little more patient."
"Really, right...... plain"
I'll tell my brother-in-law later. It's not plain.
I wonder if I could ask [Shadow] for the phony thing. It's also my job to protect the security from the back.
"So the public buzz is amazing, but some people are evil behind it, so you shouldn't give them a face and a name lightly. Because they might think you're a phony."
"I get it. Because I'm not wearing a uniform when I leave, and I make sure to wear gloves."
"Yes. I hope so. Or if you find out you're working here and someone kills you, I'll kick you out."
"Okay! I'll make sure you never find out! If you find out, don't worry, I'll shut your mouth!
If they kick me out, I won't be able to.
Let's deal with all my technology.
"Don't you dare say such a noise! You don't have to block your mouth, so don't find out!
"Yes."
As Mira told me, let's be more careful than ever to hide our faces and names.
I got to the restaurant at the time I promised Linda.
Linda was in her usual private room.
"Hey, Linda. You're always early. So... what's your emergency?
"It is. First of all, I wonder if you've heard of your impostor."
"Yeah, I heard about that earlier on part-time. He said he got a couple of people?
"Fine if you know. I'll pass on the truth and rumors through my fellow merchants."
"What's that?"
Truth and rumors...
"Tell me you're shy, so you won't be named all over town, and the phony seems to feel involved with the merchants in the merchant country who want to get you"
"Really?
"I don't know. But I think it's possible. They could be targeting us to cut us off, or they could be an operation to make it difficult for us to stay in Dragon Country. You should make a virtual enemy and get rid of it sooner rather than later, so you'll be a sacrificial sheep."
Linda was aggressive.
"I think so."
"It's okay. We'd better get hit. Let me double it."
Apparently, some Linda is supposed to have been hit by a merchant country.
"So, let's get down to business."
"It's an urgent story, isn't it? What is it?
"I hear there's a ton of hearings in Saul's town. Looks like I'm exploring your neighborhood. Seems to be speaking quite extensively, so there may be some information we haven't grabbed."
"Why again?"
"That's most likely a bottom line for pull-outs. But if you do that, the dragon kingdom will fang."
"Right. I don't think anybody's gonna think about anything stupid."
"Still, you don't feel like being looked into. That's why I want to think about it. And it would be helpful if you could tell your parents."
Do you think a suspicious person wanders around our house? Dad, you're gonna stick it out.
"Okay. But how do you know Linda's like that?
"Because there are still people my dad was dealing with. They taught me."
They've been alienated from Saul's town craftsmen for a long time, but it seems Linda went in between these days to repair the relationship.
Unlike her father, Linda is aiming to advance south.
As a gateway to the merchant country, he seems to be planning to use the town of Saul as a stepping stone.
Even though I'm still a freshman at Royal School, my eyes that move ahead are on my father's side.
"But in doing so, it's strange because my phony seems like a conspiracy, too"
When there was a disturbing movement around me at my parents' house and in Wangdu, I really saw it the way it was.
Makes me want to.
It's forbidden to judge by prediction, but I want to keep the conspiracy theory in the corner of my mind as well.
"Yeah, well, I kept the application. This may occasionally incur additional bait costs"
"Okay. But you eat a lot."
"I knew it was bait, tough?
"That's all I can handle. It's just that we need two dragon clerks."
A dragon clerk is someone who looks after dragons exclusively.
It resides in a dragon house and is entrusted with the management of all its dragons.
Small dragons do not have dragon clerks.
It's more than a medium-sized dragon.
Charazard is huge. He therefore needs more than one dragon clerk.
"You two... right"
It's not something a dragon jockey can do alone to get rid of body stains.
"If I give you my head, it's higher than the roof of the school. I'm stunned, too."
The school is four stories long. Certainly higher than that.
"You look adorable."
"I don't know. I don't know much about dragon love."
Either that or Linda said she looked strong.
Right now, the college dragon clerk is taking care of Sharazard, but he wants two dedicated personnel when it comes to second grade.
Like me, the new dragon clerk spends a year learning how to deal with dragons.
"Speaking of which, Linda doesn't say she wants to ride a charazard."
Everyone who became a patron thought it was the first thing to say.
"You're a little too awesome, you're going to get carried away"
If a dragon jockey can't ride a dragon, it's worthless.
Besides, I need to not just ride, I need to be proficient.
Nor does it mean that you should not ride outside of a set time.
Conversely, riding outside of class is also recommended.
I want more and more experience on board.
However, at this time of year, I have no health left because I can do it fairly hard in class.
He wants to forget about dragons as much as the rest of the day because he usually tortures his body not only to tell him to try it if he can.
By the way, riding a dragon takes steps, first check the saddle. I can finally saddle the dragon when I can confirm the dragon's condition.
And pull it out of the dragon house and ride it. That's the way it goes.
The opposite procedure will be followed after the ride is over, but at the end of the day the dragon is waiting to be taken care of.
Remove the dirt on it, clean the dragon house, even clean it up and open it up.
Given the hassle, I also nod that I don't feel like riding inside.
"One of these days you should get on and pass out."
"Hey, is it a prerequisite to pass out!?
"Uh, what do you think? Because Charazard is considerably faster than the other flying dragons. And you love to swirl in the air, you love to soar, you love to descend."
………………
Something kept Linda quiet.
I guess we should change the subject.
Speaking of which, I hear a merchant from the merchant country is building a factory near the town of Saul.
"Huh? What kind?
"It's a mechanical factory, and I hear the table's flowing"
……
"I'm not sure, either, but it's like a platform for all sorts of things."
"But it flows, doesn't it?
"Looks like it's part of the product that flows. Take it and put it back together a little bit. Then assemble it back a little further. If you repeat it, you think the product will be finished at some point?"
"Why do you have to make such a mess?"
"I don't know, but it's a groundbreaking factory. They're buying that technology out of the country and building a big factory."
"The town of Saul will grow, too."
"I don't know. Though they make it in the surrounding towns. Anyway, we need a big factory and a big lot of space, and it seems like a lot of people are going to use it. Instead, you think you can fill things up in a short time?"
"... I can't imagine"
"Well me too. You can just listen to me...... yes, does Linda's house have anything to do with the country of business?
"You don't. I'd be better protected if I joined the Chamber of Commerce, but there's a lot of clutter."
"It is."
"But why do you ask me that?
"No... sort of. I wonder how many of them are now in the Chamber of Commerce."
"Of the merchant country? Then I guess... 70% of the merchants. After all, it's advantageous to procure parts or refer brokers or sellers, so a lot of people are in there."
"That's quite a lot."
"That's right. The little ones are all over the place. Because if it's the same thing, it's cheaper to buy a thousand pieces together at the Chamber of Commerce than to buy ten individually."
Transport alone costs that kind of money, so if you're not in the Chamber of Commerce in the neighborhood, you lose the competition?
"You're not in Linda's for that, are you?"
"We'll procure and transport the wood ourselves, won't we? What we do ourselves up to processing sales. I think it's the hardware I buy from the outside."
"I see. If so, does it have an impact..."
"... so what do you know?
"What!? Hey, what are you talking about?
"You don't have to blur, come on. Talk to me."
Linda stretched out her delicate hand and grabbed my collar. I can't escape.
And my face is close.
"What is it?
"Talk."
".................. Yes"
