The Heir of the Dragon Emperor and his Bride Corps (WN)

Episode 74 "Hao, negotiate with travel merchant"

"Is you a wandering travel merchant?"

Tent This is inside the trading post. Me and Lisette were in contact with "Wandering Travel Merchant" Menes-Nairis.

I and Menes are sitting across the table, and the rosette is beside me.

Menes is a small girl with a hood and a scarf.

He seems to have come this far with a set of luggage on a small horse.

She declared that she had weapons and accepted the disarmament. As a gift, he presented a feather decoration that he purchased in the south. It seems to be pretty careful here.

Frontier "First of all, thank you." King of "

The traveller Menes stood and bowed.

"Thank you for giving me this opportunity. And I am grateful for this kind of place."

"Is it a trading post?"

Left: Yes, there are few places where anyone can exchange goods with permission, so this place is rare.

"Our travel merchants are those who travel and live for most of the year. Depending on where they go, they can buy goods or get paid for high places. , This is the first place where the price is cheap. I really appreciate it. "

"I've been here. Could you tell me about other local stories?"

When I urged me to sit down, the travel agent Menes sat down on a chair.

"Because travel merchants know that they are informed."

"I agree"

Traveller Menes nodded.

I jumped at the rosette.

Up to this point, it is as scheduled.

Until I came here, I heard stories about travellers.

They travel around the continent. Detailed information on every town.

There is no net in this world. No newspapers, no mail.

Therefore, the exchange of information is mainly word-of-mouth. The only way to source information about other lands is to ask a travel merchant or bard.

But they also source this outlying information naturally.

It is better to think that this information will be transmitted to other lands as well as getting information about other lands.

Is it easy to understand if you think of the rumored goodness as "A merchant's kiba (still young)".

Just be careful.

It seems that not giving extra information is a way to deal with travellers.

"Indeed, our travel merchants are known for their affairs."

"It's hard to move to another city in this storm," he said.

"Talking about lands and places you don't know is an indispensable spice to your business."

Traveller Menes rinsed her tea.

"For example, here, humans and sub-humans are dealing indiscriminately. Any merchant wants information on such places."

"I don't mind talking separately."

Until now, I have declared it to Princess Sylvia as usual.

Conversely, nobody comes.

If a travel merchant could spread the word of mouth here by word of mouth, I would hope.

"I'm grateful if you say that, because I don't want to send the 'King of the Frontier' to the enemy, so I've given permission in advance."

"It's lawful."

Fence "Because leaking that secret would make it hard for travel merchants to receive it."

Traveller Menes laughed with a grin.

"I'm surprised. The partition and the table are moving."

"Although it's also a permit"

"Everyone would want to hear that there is something surprising in the frontiers. Of course, I am not going to bother the" King of the Frontiers. " But I can tell you that you don't want to disclose your frontier information. "

Menez, a travel merchant, leans on a table and leans forward.

"We have built such a wonderful trading post. Given its benefits, the traveller keeps the king's secret. Condition

"No, the fence is neither secret nor anything."

"……What?"

"I don't mind if I say it, because the people of the Kittle Tamori family also know it."

In the first place, I'm using the "Wall of Will" against Toki-House.

Probably, information is flowing to "The Ten Sages".

I'd be grateful if I would be alert and not go out of the way to the frontiers and the Kittle Tatar territory.

Recently, I have been using the Soldier of Will everyday.

It's a soldier, a clothesline, a babysitter, a trading post permit, a maid cafe table. There is no way we can hide our presence.

"Is that OK, 'King of the Frontier' ?!"

However, the travel agent Menes looks like he sees something incredible.

"Please think! If that is taken away by another country !?"

"... It's hard."

"If another country attacks using that !?"

"... I can't help it."

The fences are just for them unless I give them magic. They said they were very portable and were taken by other countries.

"......... Shouma brother"

"What a rosette"

POWs: "It's even now ... continue to move as long as there is magic, do not stop until it shatters, and if it is difficult to carry it, do not you think that a soldier who can not use it is quite evil?" "Yes."

"You didn't even know that the frontier was creating a great corps ..."

"I can only use it for defense battles."

"Once you can use it for an attack, the wild world may end."

"Maybe"

Rise with me whispering in my ear.

Behind the table, the traveler Mernes trembles.

He opened his mouth to say something, looked at me and fell down, shook his shoulders.

Leak "I am not afraid that my information will be leaked. I am so confident that I am so confused."

The traveller slammed his head on the table, with Menes, cancer.

Container "I'm sorry to try to get an unfair deal with someone who has this much!"

Good luck, good luck!

Traveller Menes hits his head several times at the table.

"Wait wait wait. What happened?"

Why are you desperately apologizing?

Don't hit your head on the fence table. It's hard. So!

"It seems that he was trying to negotiate in exchange for keeping the information of the Soldier of Will secret."

The rosette whispered in my ear.

"Travelers travel around the continent. If they really want to spread information, they could spread throughout the country."

"Instead of keeping the information of [Soldier of Will] secret, would it negotiate?"

"I think you thought it was a military secret."

"I use that for both Princess Sylvia and Touki-House."

"The military can't know about the military."

Resting place "I can use it as a clothesline and baby-care staff, even if I can shelter from the rain,"

"I see ... hey, travel merchant Menes."

When I called out, the travel merchant Menes looked up.

With tears, she shakes when she shakes.

I'm scared.

The fence, "What did you think of me?" "I thought the king was a golem to rule the sub-humans."

...... Does it look like from the outside?

I'm just asking people to help improve the living environment.

Mandatory: "If you become a king who can subordinate those who have never followed anyone except the first Majesty the Dragon Emperor, you must have great military power. I don't want anyone to know about this ... so ... I thought there was room for negotiations ... "

Traveller Menes nodded to me.

It's a really crying face.

"What were you going to want from me?"

I asked.

Traveller Menes' proposal is not even negotiable.

I mean, if I really wanted to keep the information on the fence only nearby, there was the possibility of killing this and closing it.

What do you want then?

"... Instead of letting travel travelers keep the information on the" moving wall "secret or rumoring that" there is no such thing.

Traveller Menes muttered in a voice that seemed to disappear.

"... As I said earlier, travel merchants move from town to town and live, basically because they are vulnerable to markets in any town. You can rest assured if there is space in the city. Even if you spend a lot of money in another town, there is room for negotiation. If you can not do business elsewhere, you should come here. "

"What is that?"

"Our travel merchants are wandering people. We just wanted someone who treats us equally ..."

"I should say that from the beginning."

"……e?"

"I'll have a lot of space for sale. There's a space dedicated to 'Hazama Village' at the trading post, but I rent a part of it. Nobody can complain if the traveler is my guest. Wa

"Is it true?"

"However, we will provide information instead."

"... Information?"

Lie false "What you saw and heard during the journey. Events. People and location information. Every time you come to this trading post, ask them to talk about that information. "How about this?" "Is that OK?"

"Well, this is really helpful."

Really, the information isn't coming in at the border.

Information sources are only gossip and what Princess Silvia, Princess Renes and General Hurka tell. Little information about the royal capital comes in.

Right now, Kitori Tamori is missing, but he doesn't know if he's dead or alive or how "The Ten Sages" is working.

Reconnaissance Harpies are out, but after all, just look from the sky. Not much information is available. I'm quite stressful as I come from an information-rich world.

It would be helpful if a traveler could be a source of information.

"Well, I understand. If you have a place at this trading post, let's have the travel agent Menes-Nairis be the source of the King of the Frontiers."

"Oh, this is an equal contract."

Me and traveller Menes shook hands.

"By the way ... this is a simple matter of interest, but how are you traveling merchants across the country? It would be helpful if you could tell me if I was there. ''

The frontiers: "... the king of No, it's astonishing."

"First of all, prepay the information. Determine if the information is correct, and then decide how to treat us. Indeed," the king of the frontiers. "

"Are you too afraid of me?"

"... I'll talk about everything about travellers."

Menes then taught me about the traveller.

They are the lords of the lord who was destroyed in the war after the death of the Dragon Emperor.

An ancestor who has been relocated to thin land, has begun a traveller to survive. For example, the wisdom to survive while traveling has been passed down from generation to generation.

"... In some cases, we may not be able to get into town, like during a war or a political change. So, for generations, we are telling us where to stay in an emergency."

"It's hard ... for travellers too."

Cave: "I'm bombed by my parents as soon as I'm born. A relatively safe forest where I can stay when I can't get to town.

……Hmm?

what did you say?

"Remains?"

"Yes. You may not know, but there are old archeological sites all over the continent. What was it used for? ...

"Do the Menes know the place?"

"It's a life."

Traveller Menes replied as if nothing.

"Before I came here, I stayed at some archeological sites. However, it is said that there are monsters in the back, so I just spend the night at the entrance. When the monsters are noisy, I can sleep Sometimes it's not ...

"What if I say I'm going to get rid of the demon?"

I said.

"If I say I'm going to get rid of the monsters at the archeological site, will the traveller's clan be my side?"

"Yeah, yeah! Of course!"

Traveller Menes shone his eyes.

"Once we do, our travel merchant clan can serve the" King of the Frontiers "because we wanderers will have a place to rest ... … I do n’t want “King of the Frontier” to take that much work… ”

"Don't misunderstand. I can't destroy all demons on the continent."

I held my knees down so I couldn't realize my inner sway. I noticed that Risette was holding my hand. The fingertip is shaking.

You can see it in the rosette.

What does the information on the archeological sites that travellers have to us mean?

"I'm only dealing with monsters that are within my reach. Of course, this assumes you trust me, because it offers the secrets that travellers have been holding all the time What?

"……Yes"

"So, only the nearby caves and archeological sites are fine."

I tell while staring at the travel merchant Menes.

Subjugation "It's only near the frontiers and those of the Kittle territorial territory. Tell me where the archeological sites you're using to stay. Just look at it and decide if you trust me. "

"I do not compel. You decide."

For a while, there was silence.

A few minutes later, the travel agent Menes opened his leather bag, as determined.

Then we showed us a simple terrain and a parchment with some markings on it.
