Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement

08 I came from the fire department

"Husband is a visitor."

"What?-There must have been no such plan ..."

According to the butler's report, the lord of Bozes, Count Klaus von Bozes, looked suspicious.

The veteran butler, Stephan, serving from his father's time, can't make boring mistakes, nor can he use his dubious customers who haven't made any appointments. Is that a special guest that Stephans has decided to see me?

Let's make Stephan's face here, and no, believe in Stephan.

"I'll see you. When you're ready, let me go during the reception."

Hmm? Why not fall?

"How about your wife and children?"

What did you say! I can call my family! ! What exactly are you thinking, Stephan!

"... call me"

"I understand."

I decided to believe in Stephan's judgment, even to believe it to the end.

During the reception, all members of the Boses family were present. It's not during the Royal Castle audience, it's just a large table and seats. Although the price of the table is not very "normal".

It is not usually possible to suddenly bring the whole family to a visitor without any prior talk. My wife, Iris, and her three children are all fidgeting with a calm look. Klaus does not say anything to such a family. There's no help for it because Klaus doesn't know, but that's not to say.

(Please, Stefan ...)

It seems that Stephan has finally guided the customer.

"Mitsuha von Yamano, from Japan, wishes to greet Count Bozes."

Klaus was surprised to see the person who was introduced to the room by the steward Stephan. Beautiful flowing black hair, a doll-like face, and strange clothing that I have never seen. A mysterious tool that has a lot of pockets on the top that seems to be easy to move, and is lowered with a knife on the belt.

I heard you're from a foreign country you've never heard of, but suppose your noble daughter travels alone, without escorts or attendants. Moreover, a decent 10 year old child!

Claus was angry. Not to the girl, but to her parents and others. Why not stop! Why forgive! !

"First time I see you, my name is Mitsuha von Yamano. I am from a distant country, but I would like to see Earl Bozes and see my butler.

Klaus was impressed by his solid language that did not fit his age. Hmmm, although young, is Stephan through?

"Um, travel from a distance, tired. I'd like to take a break from my home for a while. Why did a distant visit bother to the Bozes?"

If you are from a distant country, you will aim for the royal capital first. I can't think of any reason to stop by the lord of such a land.

"Yes, I was saved by a territory of the territory where my life was in danger due to a beast herd on the way.

I would like to share this with the Lord and let me know my gratitude and the existence of good folks.

"What, that's true!"

I'm happy. Your territory will help you and help you to thank you, without having to be dismissed. I was able to show it to the children. What a delight!

Mitsuha took something out of her pocket when she was so impressed.

"It's a small thing, but I'd be grateful if you brought it from my home country and received it as gratitude."

Stephan receives and delivers it to Claus.

"What, this is ..."

The slick weight indicates that it is made of metal, but it is an elaborate item with a vivid color and a glossy touch. I have never seen it, and I do not know what it is used for. But it is definitely a gift of excellent technology.

"It's a folding universal knife."

"What a knife!"

Klaus peeled his eyes when he heard the knife. This elaborate and expensive, but wide and difficult to grasp item? And it's folding? How do you use it?

"Yes, even though a knife isn't meant to be used in combat, it's like a tool. It's like a small tool like a blade, scissors, file, etc. Is it easy to understand if you pinch it up and raise it? "

I was told that Klaus was trying various things and managed to cause blades and scissors.

"What a precise construction ..."

Klaus stunned by the overly sophisticated product. The children are interested and look around Klaus.

"This is a great thing. I must return something. Mitsuha, what do you plan to do in the future?"

"Yes, let's go to the royal city as it is now. It takes time because this powerless body takes time, so I'm sorry ..."

"That's it!"

Klaus stood up and shouted.

"It's going to be dark right now! It's strange that a child travels alone for a long time at all! It's not allowed!"

Forget the noble dignity of the aristocrat, and shout involuntarily.

"Wait three days. Three days later a carriage for the Imperial City will appear. Ride it."

"I'm sorry, I'm ashamed, but the road banks are scarce and the carriage fee is very much ..."

Huh?

Klaus speaks openly to Mitsuha's unexpected answer.

No carriages? Are you dressed like that? Will you give a gift to thank you for selling something that could be dozens of gold coins if sold to a nobleman?

"... Let's stay at home for the time being, and let me explain slowly later."

He instructed Stephan to guide Mitsuha to his room to rest slowly until dinner, and Klaus leaned his head and elbows to the table.

"you…"

"Sorry, let me think a little ..."

Iris walked out of the room with his children smiling, as Klaus conceived wrinkling his forehead, interrupting his wife's words.

"What the hell is that girl ..."

At that time, Mitsuha was guided to the guest room by the steward, Stephan, and smiled in his heart with a mysterious face.

"……won"

Mitsuha was guided to the guest room and took out his luggage from the backpack one after another.

Dress carefully folded so as not to wrinkle. Heel stuffed to prevent shape loss. A folding knife in the case. And today's centerpiece, the finest pearl necklace. Preparation progresses steadily.

A few hours later, Stephane came to Mitsuha to guide him to the cafeteria, where his voice shook his surprise.

… Steven Stefan, a steel butler, was a lifetime unaware.
