Earl Bozes was a little sick.

I thought of Mitsuha as my daughter, and I had the expectation that she might be my son's wife and be my true daughter. And, apart from the pearl necklace, which was a substitute for the store's purchase cost, I thought I was the only one who received a free gift from Mitsuha.

Nevertheless, that ring from earlier.

That's obviously much more expensive and valuable than the army knife you got.

Despite the result you instructed, some irritations will not subside.

We have a special relationship with Mitsuha, but when we come out to guardian Mitsuha, a young, or young, noble, newcomer noble to all things as a nobleman, various other aristocrats have come across I don't like it.

What is "Bozes territory is just the place where Viscount Yamano landed when he came to this country?" What is "If the territory is just next door, my territory is more suitable, because when you go to the royal city you will pass through my territory"! You just want to get close to Mitsuha and use it!

Of course, the king and the Prime Minister who did not know the situation to some extent did not deal with them, but the Bozes family became guardians according to the prior rules.

In the first place, Mitsuha has various loans.

Mitsuha first came to the country and stayed in his territory, Countess Bozes. And the people helped Mitsuha.

…… Instead, I was helped by a territorial daughter.

After that, she comforted Mitsuha, who was crying, and said she would be acting for her father.

… Instead, she took the place of her daughter and told me various stories that were useful to the territory.

I funded the purchase of the store.

In return, I received a much more valuable pearl necklace.

The eldest son, Alexis, served as a shield and saved his life.

…… Instead, he helped me save a life that would normally never be helped, and helped me get a Viscount.

Also, the shield that protects the general commander is a matter of course as a nobleman.

I am taking care of things in various ways and doing guardianship.

…… Instead, as a guardian of the Princess of the Lightning, I was able to gain a lot of influence and greatly improved my relationship with other nobles.

………that?

Are you borrowing more?

……………………….

No, let's leave it for now.

Regarding Mitsuha, he does not explicitly state, but as a conclusion that combines various information, he speculates as follows.

She is the sister of a young king in a distant country across the sea. My sister and brother are good.

Many of the people wanted Mitsuha to be the queen.

The country has a very good technical ability, from daily necessities to mysterious weapons called "Jingu" and magical powers called "migration". is there.

The origin of Mitsuha's name, "The Princess of Lightning" in Japan, is probably only shown by using a sacred tool.

Is that the product or suspicious equipment that your friends are carrying on a small high-speed ship really or so, or because of “walking”?

And the value of Mitsuha to the royal and aristocratic families of our country.

Regarding the fear of invasion from the country of Mitsuha, Mitsuha himself said, "Except for a special small high-speed ship that requires ridiculously expensive construction and operation, it is almost impossible to go back and forth. There is no way we can carry a lot of soldiers or munitions. "

Regarding trade, “My friends send me out of profitability, so I just sell it appropriately at a price that does not compete for the remainder. If you are thinking of making a profit as a business, it is not enough even several tens of times the current price. "

Most of the products sold in stores are of the order of daily necessities, most of which have a great performance, and there are no products that affect the country, so it is not enough to study counterfeit products without sticking gold.

Some of the portable lamps without fire are likely to be used for military purposes, but the construction is too small and the mechanism is not known at all. It is not possible to buy in large quantities by order, and it is too expensive to purchase in large quantities for military use in the first place.

In, even if we think about establishing diplomatic relations and exchanging technology, there is no technology that can be provided to countries beyond here, and the word “exchange” does not hold in the first place. And it is a pity that we have to rely on the means of transportation.

Even if you pay money as compensation, it is unfavorable that a large amount of gold and jewelry will flow out of Japan unilaterally due to too much technical gap or difference in monetary value.

And if Japan is in danger again, will you be able to use that “migration” to help?

Even in the country where your sister lives, will a nation help any other country without any reward? Again, knowing that it will consume the life of the priest and the power of the jigs.

No matter how much the King is a younger brother, there is no way to waste his government money and kill his people for his sister who has left the country or for a strange country.

Then, personally to Mitsuha's friends again?

No, considering the last time, it would be difficult the second time. Perhaps at that time, Mitsuha would choose to escape ...

In other words, it is difficult to use Mitsuha as the king and sister of a great power.

Instead of using it, if you do harm and expose it to Mitsuha's country, if your friends retaliate against danger or profitability, your nation may be destroyed.

Perhaps there are some laymen who are watching from a distance without contacting Mitsuha. In case of emergency, to report to Kunitachi.

If so, what is the value of Mitsuha for Japan?

Yes, that is its charisma. And good wisdom and knowledge.

charisma.

Cute appearance, bright, cheerful and gentle personality. And the dignity at the time of emergency, the strength at the time of seriousness.

People who have seen them have a strong reverence for Mitsuha.

It's no surprise that he believes that the king will summon that god soldier in times of crisis.

If you take in Mitsuha and make them speak in a convenient way, the benefits will be great.

... I don't think you can control Mitsuha so easily.

But Mitsuha's real value is not there.

P a child's real value is his wisdom and knowledge.

Various proposals for territorial development, sometimes slippery. I always close my mouth and say "I'm paying for it". And if you can do it.

According to reports of those who are investigating the status of the Viscount of Yamano, it seems that recently various reforms and construction of the system seemed to be taking place, and the effects of the effects and the faces of the villagers have become brighter.

The results of the reforms and construction work may not be reflected in the territory's earnings as soon as possible, but we will continue to look into the details in order to imitate immediately if the effects are significant. However, it was a pity that he refused to lend the vassals ...

And furthermore, it seems that the flow of people to Yamano territory has begun.

The flow of people is indispensable for the development of territory. It is also good that the exchange with our territory increases.

… But, please, please take care of the development in the form of drawing profits from my Bozes territory ……

He turned his eyes to Mitsuha and found himself out of a group of children. Apparently, they started to greet each other.

He stuck with Mitsuha to promote his intimacy with Mitsuha to other houses and to meet with the Earl's House of Lansen and Pasteur. Buy repulsion. After that I left to let me do it freely.

Although he is reassured by Mitsuha's standing in good shape and quite clever, he feels a little irritated by his friendship with other family members.

You, it's ours!

Alexis, do you want to hold back! !

On the other hand, Mitsuha was talking to the lords of each family, following advice from Alexis. The lords also wanted to talk to Mitsuha and welcomed him, and from there they came to Mitsuha one after another.

Alexis is with me, but despite being a son, she is a vicarious child unlike the influential nobleman, Count Bozes. No one complains about staying with Mitsuha for a long time.

In addition, although I doubted their relationship at first, Alexis was aside, but Mitsuha was completely like a "good friend" or "sister or brother", so Mitsuha was on the good side The noble breath of a noble with a single son who determined that there was no romantic feeling was rough.

Even if Alexis desperately tries to curb, Alexis, who is judged not to be seen by Mitsuha as a man to be loved, will only pour his eyes on pity. It was just an obstacle.

And Mitsuha, who is trying to advertise a new product to be launched from the Viscount, was unaware of the battle around it.

And the depressed Countess Bozes and Alexis, whose stomach is about to pierce, have passed an incredibly long time.

Very slowly ...
