The next day.

I was summoned by Odette and walking towards town.

"Today I'm going to show you Yuki to the Grail Chamber of Commerce."

"'The Grail Chamber of Commerce'?

"It's a long-held chamber of commerce. Since before the Eight Kings War, you've changed your heels."

"I'm happy to show you around town, but how could you be in a place like that?

"Yuki just came from a local territory, right? It's important to know about Wang Du's financial situation. Sometimes you get expensive items while exploring as a magician. You can't leave your money in your quarters after you redeem it."

"I don't think I rarely get an item like that,"

"What does a man who pulls out his holy sword say"

Odette shrugged her shoulders like a shudder.

This is the road near the quarters.

Me and Odette are walking toward town.

"I told you before, didn't I? If you discover a new 'ancient object', the title of the house will rise one. He said he could build a new house."

"I didn't find the Holy Sword, it was there from the beginning."

"If you can't use it, it's the same as not. If it becomes public that you have unsealed the Holy Sword, one may rise in the title of Baron Glossaria. Maybe Yuki can build a new aristocratic home?

"For that time, you mean you should know the financial circumstances of Wang Du?

"Yuki swallows fast."

Odette snorted like she was good at it.

Indeed, what Odette says makes sense.

So far, "Holy Sword Lean Kaal" has been left in "Holy Sword Cave".

Because besides me and Alice, you can't pull that sword out.

Discussions with Princess Iris and Odette have resulted in a decision to switch to replica later, or to see the opportunity and announce that the seal has been unsealed.

Odette invited me to the Chamber of Commerce to take action when he chose the latter.

"That's Odette. Don't count on me."

"............ Become"

"I'm a country nobleman. I don't know anything about this. Odette supports me and helps me. It's good to see Odette. Really."

"Hey, what are you embarrassing me about!?

Poop.

"... don't slap me on the back all of a sudden, Duchess."

"Because you're embarrassing yourself. Totally...... already"

I just wanted to say thank you.

"Nobles don't say that directly. Letters and stuff when I tell them... even when I say it directly, I say it in a much more roundabout way. I'll tell you next time, don't learn properly!

"Okay."

"Better than that, remember the path properly. The road from the quarters to the town is quite complicated. I guess I'll show you the maid in the dorm sometime."

"Okay. Cross the first bridge through the aristocratic gates."

"That's right... is that it?

Unexpectedly, Odette stopped.

Looking forward, across the cobblestone road, a white carriage was parked.

"Oh well. There's a carriage over there. And that's what the royal family uses when they go out with patience. Well, strange."

"No, why does Odette know about the carriage?"

"The Duke family is a house divided from the royal family. More than that, well, surprised, that's Her Royal Highness Princess Iris. I don't know."

"It's not a coincidence, is it?

It's impossible for Her Royal Highness to go out with patience as me and Odette go out.

Your Highness and Odette must have planned it from the beginning.

"... Your Highness, I'll pick you up later."

"Thank you for your hard work. Barnes."

"I know it's ok because there are escort knights and their auxiliaries...... be careful"

It was General Barnes who was running the carriage.

Mr. Barnes waved at me and Odette and drove away with the carriage.

"Thank you for waiting. Yuki. Odette."

Princess Iris pinched the hem of her skirt, courtesy.

Unlike her usual dress, the princess wore a robe for magicians.

"Let me serve you to the Chamber of Commerce."

"Is that okay? Walk like this."

"After being a trainee of the 'Magic Guild', you may also go out normally. You have to get used to it before then."

"His Royal Highness has never used the Chamber of Commerce, so I thought I'd put you both together for social studies."

Odette turned to me and let me close one eye.

"Trainees of the 'Magic Guild' sometimes take quests like adventurers. Financial knowledge will be required. Your Highness and Yuki."

"Okay. Let me make a statement."

"... Yuki. Um, you don't need any respect, do you?

"... Really?

"'Her Royal Highness the Princess' is troublesome all over town. Iris, call me."

"Okay. Then Ali..."

"Yes. My..."

"No, Iris"

"Right. Let's go, Yuki."

"... Phew"

I'm curious that Odette is having a meaningful grin...?

Anyway, me and Princess Iris, Odette, walked out to town.

"This is the Grail Chamber of Commerce."

In front of the building facing the street, Odette stopped.

What was in front of me was a big building.

It's bigger than the baron house I lived in. It's about three stories tall. Horizontal widths are as large as a few households in a row.

Double-opened doors on the front. To the left and right of it stands a guard in armor.

"The Grail Chamber of Commerce is the chamber of commerce that runs the country again. You can deposit money at branches in any country and withdraw it. They may also distribute, sell or invest in other chambers of commerce. It is said that even if the country crumbles, the Grail Chamber of Commerce will not crumble."

"... me too, this is the first time I've actually seen it"

"I don't have much to do with royalty, do I? Besides, no royal child will ever come this far. That's why you didn't notice either. Iris."

Odette pointed to the sign above the front door.

Next to the name of the "Grail Chamber of Commerce," a small crest was painted. Bats and old castles.

... You look familiar. That castle shape.

"It's Odette-Sray from the Duke of Slay's house. We are promising to meet the general manager. Please confirm."

"Ha! I'm sorry! Here you go!

Odette said, the guards opened the door for me.

Me and Iris follow Odette into the building.

"... why am I supposed to meet with the general manager?

"Mmm. This is what happened when I said I wanted to talk to someone great about something important."

"Weren't you planning on touring the Chamber of Commerce?

"I'll take a tour. Just listen to the great people before you do."

Odette shrugged her shoulders.

"I'm sorry, Master Yuki. I asked Odette."

"Your Highness... No, Iris?

"Yes, I was interested in the crest of this Chamber of Commerce... and then the person most familiar with the crest would be the general manager of the Chamber of Commerce, for this sort of thing"

Don't worry, I didn't give you Iris' name.

"So this is how it's handled. Wow, Odette."

"It's no big deal. The Duke of Slay has long had dealings with the Grail Chamber of Commerce. I also keep about 500 gold coins."

"That's the Duke's house. That's the lady's asset..."

"As with the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce', even if the country leans, it survives, because it is the motto of the House of the Duke of Slay"

While we were talking about that, we were put through to the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce' reception room.

Sit in a chair and wait for the general manager to come.

I know you're welcome. That doesn't sound like a bad story.

"... I had a dream. Yuki."

Unexpectedly, Princess Iris opened her mouth.

"What's a dream?

"Yuki and I came here to talk to the greatest man."

"Did they say that in your dreams?

"Yes."

"To whom?

"............... who was my father in my dreams. to Lyle-Carmain."

………….

"... Iris is... no way"

"............... I'm not sure. I had a fever a while ago, and I started dreaming about it... whether what was in my dreams was true or not... but"

Unexpectedly, Princess Iris shook my hand.

Slip your own finger between my fingers, Alice, the way you're good at gripping.

No way.

Are you sure Princess Iris is that Alice...?

"Thank you for waiting. My name is Rhodelia, general manager of the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce'."

It was a gray-haired woman who came in the reception room.

Tie tight, in your pants, stand in front of us, head down.

"I'm busy. Odette-Sray. Will these two meet for the first time?"

"This is my friend, Yuki-Grossalia. I'm from the Baron's. Another one of you..."

"I know. Her Royal Highness Princess Iris-Leastia"

"Do you understand?

"The general manager of the Chamber of Commerce will not work unless he is familiar with the face of the royal family. I am honored to have immediately worshipped your honor."

"Yes, no. Thank you for your sudden request."

Still a little confused, I guess.

While holding my hand, Iris returned a greeting.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Yuki-Grossalia. But I'm not sure what's going on here..."

"I'll explain that to you."

Iris saw me.

It was the face of seriousness itself.

"Rhodelia, I need you. Are you certain that you are the general manager of this' Grail Chamber of Commerce 'and that you are the chief executive of all Chambers of Commerce?

"You're right. His Highness Iris."

"I hear that the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce' also has records prior to the 'Eight Kings War'. Are you sure you know that?

"Not everything."

General Manager Rhodelia shook her head sideways.

"But from generation to generation, we pride ourselves on taking over the most important things from the general manager of the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce'"

"Then I say. Child shit, and I don't mind laughing off."

Princess Iris, suddenly, took a breath,

"It is said that if Alice-Carmain and My Road meet, they will visit the location of the crest of 'Bats and Old Castles'. That if you go there, you'll get 'blessings'. I came to that confirmation today."

…………

The general manager of the Chamber of Commerce opened his eyes to the princess's words.

"... what do you mean? Ari-- No, Princess Iris."

When I heard, Princess Iris whispered,

"... I went to see if the dream I had was real"

"... I have a dream?

"Yes, because if that word is true, my dream will be… a memory of a previous life"

"No, I'm 100% sure of it in my previous life's memory. What did they say, by the way?

"Tell him to keep his word."

"... Promise"

"Yes, if in the future, I'll get you a bribe for when you catch up with My Road. Give it a village, do everything you can, talk it over for generations, earn money, save it and prepare it. When the time comes, pull it out and use it."

"Wait, wait, wait."

What are you thinking, "Village of Fira" people?

Bringing money, is that when Alice goes to her daughter-in-law?

No, no way. It's been 200 years.

... It's impossible.

What kind of cheat village would 'Village of Fira' be if that stayed until this era...

"Yes, I am."

But manager Rhodelia nodded lightly.

"You know!?

"Of course, because this is the most important handover of the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce'"

"... may I ask. What is the birthplace of the" Grail Chamber of Commerce "?

"I hear it's a village in the back of the mountain somewhere. The first generation left and started doing business. We use bats and ancient castle crests to remember the landscape."

Extremely politely, General Manager Rhodelia said.

"They say the first villages have legends."

"Legend?"

"Yes. 'No matter how time passes, we are the people of My Lord'. Let me explain it in detail. Please come this way."

She nods at me and Iris and moves to the other room.

By the way, Odette is sitting in a chair, poking, and opening his mouth.

... I'll explain it to her later.

It was in the basement of the Grail Chamber of Commerce that we were led.

General Manager Rhodelia opens the sturdy iron door with two keys and invites us.

Beyond the door, there were plates like crystals.

"Sign here, please"

"What about this board?

"This is an 'ancient object' that the general manager of this' Grail Chamber of Commerce 'has been protecting for generations. I thought it might be original."

"Is this the original!?

Princess Iris raised her voice.

That's right. "Ancient Objects" is a treasure among treasures, and even "Magic Guild" has only replicas.

If this is really original, how much the hell is it worth?

No, more than that, where did the 'Village of Fira' guys get this...?

"It's not a lot of power. This is just to certify the handwriting and magic of those who have registered."

General Manager Rhodelia offered me a plate of crystals.

"Go ahead. Give me a sign."

"Me?

"That's how it's told. Your true name and magic."

"... ok"

I put blood on my pen and wrote my name on the crystal board.

"Dean-Nosferatu"

"... Yuki..." My Road ""

Poiron, and, from Princess Iris' eyes, tears fell.

".................. that. It's crazy...... I can't stop crying... why"

"... you're Iris-Leastia now... no, right?

"I don't know...... I don't know...... I don't know... happy."

"Verified"

said general manager Rhodelia.

I saw a plate of crystals glowing blue.

"At this time, for 200 years since the first generation, I've been out of focus."

The general manager woman, Rhodelia, knelt on the floor.

"I'm late for my application. The general manager of the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce' is to be served, from generation to generation, by the first descendants. For generations we have been told this word by our father, our grandfather… a long time ago.

'No matter what time passes, no matter what country changes,' My Lord 'who saved us from the disease of death and lost his life for us is our master' ….

Rhodelia-Couffi, general manager of the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce', pledges his allegiance to you. And let me tell you something. After Mylord and Alice Carmine left... "
