The Novice Alchemist’s Store

"Isn't that like a mistress or a concubine?

Whatever you say, it's a high-ranking aristocracy situation.

I asked him if he could still understand that, but Mr. Kate shook his head heavily.

"My real wife. Plus, they don't like side rooms or anything. I don't know if it's the right side room because I'm a woman."

"As a nobleman, that's unusual"

"Right. Even though it is common for a nobleman to marry more than one. - I don't know what's common in same-sex marriages, either."

"Right. Few examples, right?"

Aside from what actually happens, it seems that Kate has been doing a lot of research about the area since the story of my engagement with Mr. Iris came out.

That's where I came out, the Marquis of Films, who is same-sex married.

If a married man of the same sex succeeds to the throne, there are still many fences (marks) and rights involved in that marriage, if he also becomes a nobleman who has already succeeded to the throne.

Naturally, there were also many cross spears in the marriage of the Marquis Films, and the obstacles blocked - there seemed to be quite a few extra twists before we could actually get married.

As a result, the Marquis of Films is sympathetic to his opponents in similar circumstances and spares no strong pressure on same-sex couples to support him if necessary, and on those who disturb or insult him?

"Sounds pretty famous in the aristocratic social world. I'm glad you know him."

"Because you're an associate baron. If you put it in your ear that you said something insulting to the head of the Marquis, it could crush you."

"Not only about Iris and the manager, but I said things that would disdain a woman (...) and a man (...)."

"So, you couldn't pronounce it clearly because your throat is not feeling well?

For that reason, I guess I had to manage to mislead......

Mr. Iris laughs at me, too, when I tell him like he's scared.

"It's too strong, though. With all that clarity."

"Well, there's no third party. When they claim to be misheard."

If, 'I didn't say' don't joke ', I'm sure you misheard me say' hmm, well ', it's hard to argue even if they say the right thing.

"Yes, there are people really married to each other"

If Lorea, with a slightly frightened, bewildered, complex expression, says so, Mr. Kate laughs muffled.

"Some men do, don't they? Less than women."

"Nobility is amazing... But if that's the case, it's a little safer when it comes to it."

"Sort of. - With the most help, my marriage to the manager will be definitive."

"... Huh?

"'Cause wouldn't you? The Rotze family could be crushed for not actually intending to get married, while asking for help because they wanted to get married."

"Oh, that would happen, wouldn't it? You know, once you get married and you break it, you still don't even get married."

Whatever the reality, you may be seen to have successfully used the Marquis just at the tip of your mouth.

How 'petite' is a knight's house if you do something equal to selling a fight like that.

About that, there is a difference in power between the Marquis and the Knights.

If I nod as convinced, Lorea shakes her head like she's in a hurry.

"Oh, you can't do that. Do something without help! Good luck, Mr. Sarasa, Mr. Iris."

"It's okay, because it's enough to name and tow. Besides, you don't seem to have to worry about it that much. But... Associate Baron Kirk had the image of being more cunning, but you were kind of a shallow bottom guy, weren't you?

The law on alchemists, though not so well known, should be known as soon as it is examined.

The cunning I could see from the Rozze family's debt testimony was not felt at all by him.

That's more than a nobleman...

"You know, the ex-tightening of the chimp, that's what it was like."

"Oh! Exactly that!

If I accidentally slap Pong my hand on Mr. Iris' words, Lorea snorts and continues her words.

"And the language, it was kind of a chig hug"

"Yeah, I agree with that, too. I wonder if it's really noble, that one."

Maybe I was trying to have a dignified way of talking, but when I got a little excited, I was bored, so it just seemed like a chimp.

Even with the status aside, His Highness Felik is more scared than Associate Baron Kirk, who roughed up his voice and awesome, with an unreadable grin about what he was thinking.

Maybe you didn't think we needed to fix it, but you know the bottom line when you're negotiating and you put your feelings on the table without thinking about it.

"He's a typical third generation."

"Third generation, is it?

"Yes, Lorea. It was the previous generation of Associate Baron Kirk who developed South Strag so much that it wasn't that big a town. It was the predecessors who operated it without difficulty. And modestly, all foolish is now Associate Baron Kirk"

"Modestly?" All Fools "?

"Yes, it was about ten years ago, when I was a previous generation. Because of previous generations' achievements. But it was now the Associate Baron who crushed it. At that point, it was decided to succeed him. Did he cause any problems? Quite a fool if you don't refrain"

"Ooh..."

To Mr. Kate's words I told him to throw up, I snort.

But maybe I can't help but appreciate that.

This is the first time I've seen you face to face directly, but I don't care what you think.

If the roots were straight and good people like Mr. Iris would still do that if someone there was crooked...... they would have kept the nobility going a lot, wouldn't they?

Even though it is an aristocratic society with many leg pulls.

"Simply put, you're a fool without thought, a human scumbag, a foolish successor. I have to go out with someone because the territory is bordering, but if I can, I don't want to get involved."

Mr. Kate has a rough nose, spews out a truly far-fetched word, and Mr. Iris shrugs his shoulders with another bitter smile.

Seeing those two, me and Lorea looked at each other.

"All the more so, that's a strange testimony to the Rotze family's debt. Who wrote the picture surface, even if it is the experts who actually make the writing"

If I hadn't gotten my hands on it, the Rotze family would have essentially been taken over, and even if I did, it should be noted that it had been a clever contract so that no harm would have been done to the Associate Baron Kirk family.

If you leave it to the experts, they'll make the testimony you instructed, but I don't even think an expert like that would give advice on 'Let's cheat like this' or anything.

"Have you been put in wisdom by someone or have you got an excellent aide...... Given that South Strag isn't lonely, could it be the latter?

"Probably so. He's obviously a short-circuited idiot. This time... you didn't even talk to that aide and acted arbitrarily or something like that?

The existence of a competent auxiliary to successfully realize the foolish thoughts of Associate Baron Kirk.

From the impression I got in person with the Associate Baron, I feel very likely.

From us, very annoyingly.

"You're a little worried when you do. We're leaving this place empty for a long time."

Regarding the buyout from tomorrow, Mr. Kate will stay, at most, for one or two nights, or two or three days, even if it takes time.

But with regard to the collection of Missanon roots, I would leave Lorea alone for more than a week, no matter how short, and for more than a month if I did poorly.

Still, if the other person is cunning - no, if you have a head to think about at all, don't worry too much.

Assuming there wasn't an alchemist there, attacking an alchemist's shop would be like selling a fight against national policy.

The person who made them attack will be punished, and if they do poorly, the house itself will be destroyed.

If the inhabitants of this village are the only inhabitants, we may be able to pressure them to shut their mouths, but there are many gatherers in this village.

If there is anything like an alchemist's shop being attacked, the gatherers will leave this village, and then the story will surely spread.

From the honorable nobility of the house, it's an option you'll never take.

But if you're stupid enough to even imagine that... Lorea is in danger.

Though the store has security equipment, it's non-lethal, and it can handle unattractive customers, thieves at best, to that level.

There is a lack of power for full-scale raids by armed groups.

In case Lorea gets hurt or is taken hostage......

To me thinking, Mr Iris said one suggestion.
