The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)
Episode IX: Mr. Search's Maria.
"Maria aahhhh!
It opens with the sound of Dogan's door in our room watching revenue and expenditure reports in his own room. "Dogan" doesn't sound like a door, but if I'm surprised about this at our place, they'll live and go.
"Dad, the door is broken! Open it more quietly!
"Oh, hey, I'm sorry. - No! You, what are you thinking!
My body is as big as a bear, my voice and attitude are bigger than that. To this annoying father, we turn a frivolous eye.
"... What? What did we do?
"Did you do something? Oh, my God! Maria, you, Mr. Echigo of Yamate, they beat you up!
"Yamate's... etigo?
... what? Etigo? Something I've heard of somewhere, something I haven't...
……
………
..................... Oh!
"I remember! That porn merchant!
"'Erotic merchants! I don't think so! That's our big deal over there! I'm gonna kick you in the face. Oh, my God, you're gonna crush us!
My home operates a merchant in this commercial kingdom of Solvania. ORKENA...... No, it is called by two names' trade 'all over the world, and even' kingdoms made by merchants', especially in Kato, known as' the three largest commercial cities'. It's commonly called a 'cat merchant'.
"Ho, but your father. That merchant named Echigo, he looked bad? Besides, I touched our butt."
"If you discriminate against people with your face, Akan! No, it doesn't have to be... basically, if you do the Kato Merchant's daughter too, why don't you take care of it in Genko?
"There is no Genko. Keri ya."
"Take your legs!
"Just my legs?
"Who is clever... no! Don't get rattled out about your ass, it won't decrease. Why don't you take the money anyway?"
"Of course you took the money, did you? I put a keri in my face."
"... you, that sucks as a person. Forgive me if I take the money."
"What I touched in the butt was covered in gold."
"Look, Keri, why did you let me in?
"I didn't like your face."
"He said if I discriminated against him with my face!
No, I hope so. But what? I feel bad for you. What, if you stroke our asses around with a face like a toad and you're happy, you can even put one of those in there?
"I don't know what it feels like... but, Maria. How old are you now, too? You're touching me. Are you touching me? You're gonna get fat, like our ocane, and you're gonna let anyone even touch your ass?
"... leave me alone"
"No, leave me alone. Mostly, after all you've done after all the merchant imitations... see no. Neighbors only. No, no, no, no. No, no, no.
"... Missley has nothing to do with it."
"It matters! Mi-no, you, you're the same age! I can't believe I didn't even have one of those stories that floated around at about twenty-five years ago... and I gave birth to her in a cute face at the corner of the corner, but I couldn't help it."
"It was your mother who gave birth!
"It was your father who planted it!
"That statement sucks!
"Anyway! We have a fine successor to Velour! You'll be a merchant for hours. Go to your daughter-in-law and rest easy."
Hey, I'm begging you - and one sigh of sigh to your father, who looks like he's begging.
"... well, of course. I'll be out in a minute."
"Hey, Maria!
"Follow Me"
"Don't wait! None - don't go out the window!
"No more rumors about the 'old lady'! 'With your father's voice on his back, I literally popped up in the city of Kato.
◇◆◇◆◇◆
"... oh, shit, I'm sorry"
Kato is a historic city. When the Kingdom of Solvania was still a small and vulnerable nation that could fly, it was also known as the 'ancient capital', and this city, created on the assumption that it would be attacked first by an enemy country, made such complex designations as' It's like a maze 'or' If you go to a neighboring town, you'll be lost even if you live here from an early age '.
"What makes you married or... asshole"
That said, we are the daughter of a merchant. That's why I've been wandering the city with you since I was about half my current height. I can't get lost in a cat right now.
"Ah. That's boring."
When I was little, I was like, "When I grew up, Maria was our lady merchant! 'I said and laughed.' Since what time did your father look at our face and say, 'Good morning, married!' I was going to say things like that in the city.
... I don't even know how your father feels.
Our house, the 'Search Chamber' run by the Searchers, is also a fairly large Chamber of Commerce in Kato and. It is also one of the Cato Twelve Chambers of Commerce, and our brother, Velour Searches, takes on the reputation of Cato by saying that he is a young but outstanding merchant.
"... and then we'll be... we'll be around the rigvette, but if you marry me, you'll be perfect."
The Ligvetes are one of the Cato merchants, mainly the Chamber of Commerce specializing in the commerce of spices and. The Searching Chamber of Commerce deals with anything, but one way or another, the area of spices and other living products is weak. It's common sense among traders to pay for things that are missing, but if you don't have to pay for 'money' you can bribe... for example, if you don't have a 'blood connection' do it?
"If I made a kid out of this bong with us and Rigvette, I'd be your brother's nephew. Sora, don't think you'll be able to accommodate me for a little while."
I know a hundred things aren't that sweet, but it's easier for your brother to be his own sister's daughter-in-law than for someone else in red.
"... ho, but that's not funny"
I don't... really, I'm bored.
Indeed...... marry, support your husband, have children, and raise them. Well, maybe even say yes to a chaste wife who will be a pretty wife and wait for her husband to return. I don't know...
"I don't have a character."
- One sigh at a time. I really don't have a character.
"... oh! Hey, Maria! Maria! What are you doing!
A voice to us walking around the city in a tense gutter drop. If you look at me there was a face of the twat I've been used to seeing since I was a little girl.
"What, no kite. Not at all?"
"Pumpkin... no. Uhaya."
"... that's right"
Kate's home runs one of the Kato Twelve Chambers of Commerce, the Asteca Chamber of Commerce. Kite herself, the lord and heir to the merchandise of the gemstone, has quite the eye.
... Well, in his case, he simply wanted to be proud of his sister at the tavern, but he gave her an eye-catching arm. I told you to be good at things when you like them.
"Holle, the other day the princess of Westferia married you?
"... oh. There you go. There you go."
"'I don't need expensive gems or anything. Just whisper the word of love every day.' Say it, say it, young lad. Say it. Well, with that said, girls like light stuff. Do it?
"We prefer rust."
"Light stuff burns, too. Anyway, I can't sell expensive gems like popping eyeballs, but I can sell them for the price there. No, princess."
"... that's right"
"Oops! We'll branch again."
"That's an elusive rigid story. Are you making money without it?
When the Chamber of Commerce wants to leave one branch, it has a lot of money. In our neighborhood, they call it a 'premium'. That depends on the size of the city... well, it's stupid expensive. That's what I think when I think I'm going to go out to the king's capital of some country, I don't think I'm going to work pretty hard.
"Oh, my God, Maria. Don't you know that?
"What?
"Terra ya."
"Terra?"
"Rondo de Terra. Of Harbor Street in Flame"
... where or where.
"You... there's no merchant's daughter dialogue, Sole"
That's not true... I don't know.
"Well, yeah. When you remember? Terra, I don't know..."
◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆
"Dad!"
He breaks up with Kate in the city, runs home breathing on his shoulders, and opens the door to his father's study room with all his might.
"... what, noisy"
We were so excited that my father, who was drinking my mother's brewed tea while hanging on the butler's desk, would turn a troublesome eye when he didn't just say 'May Fly is back', but it didn't matter what his gaze was.
"Money! Dad, lend me your money!
"... come back and talk about gold soon. Is that what you want?
"Oh no! What I want, Amen! But we don't have enough! Please, Dad! Give me the money!
"... you've been crawling around. How expensive is that enough, Mon or Nen? Well, if it's a little bit more accommodating. Yeah... really? What are you missing?
That's what I said, Dad, including tea in his mouth as he glanced through the paperwork on his desk.
"10,000 platinum coins!
"Boo-hoo!"
Your father sprayed tea on our words. Wow, damn it!
"'Damn! I don't think so! Oh, what is 10,000 pieces of white gold? How many years do you think the four of us can live together? You're buying it on the island!
"I'll be an island! This!"
Slap the paper pieces that Kate gave me on your father's desk.
"What is this..." Information on opening a Terra branch "... Terra? Terra, if I tell you... is that it? Where the daughter of the previous king of Flame ruled?
"Oh no! The city now ruled by King Flame's sister!
"The king's sister says she's ruling... you? You know how long it takes to open a store in this city? Three thousand a year, huh?
"Is that what you're missing?
"Think about it in common sense. No! Cuttlefish? Even Kato, one of the three largest commercial cities in Solvania, has 3,000 pieces a year! That's Flame's, that's not the king's capital, that's Terra's, 10,000 pieces in one country? Asshole!"
"Assholes are your dads! Hey, check it out! Not 10,000 a year! It's free to open a store in Terra!
"... what?
"In Terra, shopping is for free! Ten thousand is a deposit, don't put it down for ten years. I'll return it, but I'll get it right back. Money! And ten years from now, 10,000 will come back to 10,000!
……
"You can lend me land and buildings for free! So if you keep the money, you'll get it back in ten years! Dad, even Flame said he wanted to open the store. Yay!
……
"Hey, Dad? We'll do our best! Make your store bigger with Terra! A lifetime of favors! Money, lend me!
……
"... Dad?
"... Akan"
"Why not!
"Naturally. Think about it? First of all, you can get the store out for free. What's too clever to talk about? How do you make money if you don't get taxes?
"Oh, my God, I have taxes. Yes, but you pay according to your money! There's nothing like getting paid for just opening a store!
"Really? You'll be back in ten years. I was saying, will that ever come back? You just keep it, and when you get stuck, you don't have to, okay?
"So, but you're lending me land and buildings? Worst case scenario, if you claim the right to it, yeah, no!
"It's no use having land and buildings in such a despicable place as Terra. Are you sure you want to sell 10,000 copies?
"I don't... but Kite said I'd get it out too!
"There's room."
"Dad!"
"Yeah, Maria. 10,000 sheets are not cheap. The money your father or brother put away working sweaty."
"... but... but"
... Akan. I think I'm gonna cry.
"... hey, Maria? You know, when it's time for you to consolidate yourself, too. Yeah, don't you? Maybe you do have business talent. I don't know, you or the girl. Marriage is a woman's happiness?
That said, I can see my dad getting up from the desk and slapping us on the shoulder seeping in. Shit...... Shit, Dad.
"... I can't believe the happiness of a woman... I don't need it"
"... Maria"
"We are! We're Maria Searching! One of the Kato XII Chambers of Commerce, the daughter of the Searchers or! As a merchant, as a businessman, we'd rather take Merchant Happiness than woman happiness!
"Maria! You, add or subtract!
"What! Oh, my God, Dad."
"... what, you two are noisy"
Unexpectedly, he shoves words up to his throat into the straight face peeking from the edge of the door.
"... velour"
"... brother"
"Neighborhood trouble. Is there room for a fight?"
One yawn to sleep. As much as they say, 'Velour picked it up under the bridge,' it's not like your father or your mother, a manly face. My brother, the next head of the Searcher family, Velour Searcher, looks at this one with a troublesome face.
"... or Velour."
"What?
"Maria, I want to open a store in Terra. Say it. And have 10,000 white gold coins. What do you think?"
Your father tells that to your brother and shakes the story.
……
... Akan. Your brother is tougher than your father. Absolutely, Akan.
"... yeah, nothing"
Look. I knew this was...
……
………
.................. what? Yeah. Yan?
"Oh, what are you talking about, Velour!
Understand that you did not mishear your panicking father's voice. Yeah, yeah? Really?
"It was rumored at the other meeting. What, Terra's doing something funny? I was thinking of going to my place to see how things are going, but if Maria's going, she's just fine. You, go to Terra and do business."
"Oh, brother! Oh, yeah? Are you sure about that?
Ugh, it's a lie! Are you sure about that?
"I don't think it's easy for you to get married, and all you have is a bad reputation. If you can do it in the margin and see it, yeah."
That's what I said, a spin from my sleepy eyes. Unexpectedly, we correct our residence to a brother who turns a serious eye.
"... That said, Terra's lord is a princess. Ten thousand deposits will be returned to you. I mean, our chamber of commerce is going to make 100 pieces of white gold in 10 years."
But you know what?
"Ten thousand pieces of white gold you put to bed. If I had ten years, I'd have doubled it."
... That's not a word, as a brother, as a Searchhouse owner.
"... Now, how many times the hell are you gonna give me back?
... as one 'merchant', words.
"... If we were you, brother, I'd multiply 10,000!
"... well. I'll look forward to it."
That said, the Searchers' brothers and sisters had a nigga and a 'nigga'.
... Dad? Your father said, "I don't know if my time is over... I'm happy, I feel lonely..." and he was stubborn in the corner.
