67 . Announcement dinner party in a remote small city, part 9



 The morning of the unveiling dinner for the small frontier city of Liberty has arrived.

 There were a few guests who had already arrived in Liberty the day before.
 One of them.
 The lord of the frontier city of Batcombe, Gelter.
 Even though today is the day of the unveiling, he said he's going to challenge the underground labyrinth that Jambalea is running from the first thing in the morning.
'It's beyond insane to stay in an underground labyrinth on a day like this!
 And perhaps they would be brought back soon, as their daughter, Biblina, left the town hall with a great sword in her hand.

 The town was decorated with flags and decorations that added to the ceremonial mood.
 When I was looking around the city
Congratulations, my lord!
Good luck with the ceremony!
 And everyone in town gave me a warm shout-out.

 I feel like that's all I can get out of my chest.

 Over that city.
 Soon after, multiple dragons began to dance.

 The dragon people, Aura and Aela.
 And the multiple pterodactyl monsters and others that Jambalea is using in the underground labyrinth are demonstrating to make the ceremony more exciting, but this effect was immense.

''I heard that the lord here is a dragon rider (dragon rider)... but it's true.
 And that's what all of the invited guests were saying to each other.

 A dragon rarely seen in this world.
 And having been able to see more than one.

 There were glimpses of it in some of the guests.
A ceremony in this remote city...
 The atmosphere was very convivial, and a very friendly atmosphere was formed.

 In the vicinity of the Auditorium in the Geghemorse area, where the event was held
 Sarah turned into a salamander and welcomed the invited guests.

 Although many of the guests were impressed by her appearance.
 On this day, Sarah, who had been working on civil engineering in the territory until dawn with the bone men she had summoned herself, was
 That was fine until he appeared by the side of the public hall in the form of a salamander.

 Not long after that, I moved into sound sleep mode.
Hey! What are you thinking?
 Along the way, we had a few raids on the Foldente.
 Sarah ended up spending most of the time dozing off.

 In a way, she's the city's most distinguished servant, so I thought it was at least an unveiling, but...

◇ ◇.

 after that

 The auditorium in Gehmoos was soon filled with guests.

 At the back of the hall there was a standing-room-only eating area for lunch.
Ho, that's quite...
I never thought I'd find this kind of food in such a remote area...
 And it was very well received.

 The food here is.
 The young elven master who runs the hot spring settlement had created all of this for me.
 He's so good that there are quite a few repeat customers who come to the spa for his food, so it was a natural result.

 I am.
 From this point on, we're going to have to get dressed up and go into the hall.
 Beside me, Erdena, also dressed in formal attire, follows me.

 Thus.
 Once again, I look at Erdena in full dress.

 I can't help but admire how beautiful she really is.
 I think her usual unpretentious and rough appearance is also very nice.
 Even in full dress, this is.......................

 I seemed to be unconsciously turning my gaze to Eldena.
 On the way, Erdena caught my eye.
What's wrong with me?
 He was really worried about me.

 I'll be honest with him.
You're so beautiful, I've been admiring you.
 I told him so.
 On this occasion.
You're an idiot.
 And then it was Erdena who said that and turned sideways with a huff.
 I was happy to see that he seemed to be in a good mood the whole time after this...

'My lord, I wish you a very happy day.
 While I was making the rounds of the hall, Quinn, the chairman of the King's Capital and Quinn Trading Company, arrived in a dress.
 Normally, she dresses like a man and gives priority to ease of movement.
 I'm just as thrilled as I was when I first saw Eldena, freshly dressed, earlier.
 Just.
 Erdena beside me, perhaps sensing the mood, pinches my arm at the perfect time.

 There is a conciliatory smile on her face....
 That's why I thought it was still scary to be a woman.

 From Quinn.
 There is a proposal to move the landing place of the magic ship in the capital to a new location on the outskirts of the capital.
 What is it about the magic ship that currently arrives and departs from the roof of the Quinn Trading Company?
 The number of passengers alone is quite large.
 That's why they built a commercial facility for those passengers and had the magic ship land on the roof of the facility.
 In this way, the passengers of the ship would pass through the facility on their way to the ship, and the aim was that they would drop money on their way.
 They were willing to let Liberty reign in a percentage of the sales of this commercial facility as a magic ship expense, and we talked about this matter in a positive light for now.

 It's a place like this.
 Quinn must have gone out of his way to bring us a good economic story.
 I thought, "That's a real businessman's touch.

 After that
 At the same time that Quinn left my side, some people from the Chamber of Commerce approached me.

 On the surface, they were congratulating me in a friendly manner.
 Hey, guys.
I'd love to have a business meeting with you sometime, so please take some time.
 Yes, he went ahead and made a verbal promise.

 Probably.
 Quinn Trading Company's current monopoly on dragon scale armor, high quality magic stones, and the operation of magic ships.
 It was obvious that he wanted to play to those interests somehow.

 Just.
 It's not a good idea to run for profit.
 The people who came together for money, when the money is gone, they're all gone.

 I used to live with my parents, the Greeds.
 I've just seen the ugly side of people like that in a disgusting way.
 I still don't like the people who come by to feed these stories.

 Or so I thought.
 Eldena put her mouth to my ear.
I understand, but he's a guest of honor. Don't be so obvious.
 Yes, I've been warned.

 When did it happen?
 Apparently there was a pretense of disgust for people who cling to their interests.

 I thanked Erdena for her help.
 Once again, I braced myself.

 As I was doing so, the people who were attending on behalf of the nobles of the royal capital this time began to surround me.
 These people.
 These are the people who want their own aristocratic families to have regular services of magic ships in the lands and cities they own on the frontier.
 As expected, this is the kind of seat that
 I didn't have anyone who was willing to open up about it overtly.
 They all seem to be fighting each other off.
 I found it a little humorous the way they were always working in groups, trying to get out of the way and not make personal contact with me.

 I was dealing with everyone like that.
I knew it, Dr. Safate.
 Yes, I heard a voice calling me.

 When I turned around, there was a woman standing there who looked very fluffy.

 Just.
 I feel a fierce sense of discomfort when she calls me teacher.
 
 because
 I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what to expect when I'm in the middle of a ceremony, so I'm going to use my street name of Gossage, which is the street name in the royal capital, and I'm also going to change my appearance with a little magic.

 The woman came running up to me happily, looking at my face.
''Uh-huh, I see that you've been magically altering your appearance a bit, but I won't be fooled. I've been taking classes with you all along.
 After being told that, not only me, but even Eldena next to me huffed.

 Ah, that acorn-eyed mirror!

 once
 She listened very intently to my lessons when I was a teacher in King's Landing.

I saw you briefly when you came to King's Landing to report your promotion to the small frontier city, and I was sure of that ever since then... but I'm glad to see you are well.
 
 When she was taking my class, she, the current head of the Charles family, who called herself Neire, Liboneire, was even shedding tears as she stared at my face.

 In front of her like that, I don't know if it was my imagination or not, but I don't think Erdena's expression was strangely strong......
