123 Episode 3 The Melancholy of Liltana





You still haven't figured out how to make the glassware from that company!

 Breathing in the lavishly decorated reception room is the Marquis of Corzino, a well-dressed and flamboyant aristocrat at best, and with a flabby belly at worst.
 Corzino's shouting causes the head of the Narnis Chamber of Commerce, Mathias, to shrivel up small.
 Matias had been the branch manager of the Gracia territory, but with Corzino's backing, he was now the president of the Narnis Chamber of Commerce.

'That said, the Saracarn Chamber of Commerce is backed by the Earl of Silford. We have glassware in the reverses, glasswork products, unclouded mirrors, and even a toilet bowl ....... It's a dedication to the god of commerce, and although the contract has already expired, we don't yet know how to make it, including the materials, including the materials for the other merchants ...... how on earth they make it.

 They made a dedication to the god of commerce and had a monopoly for three years, but it had already expired. However, other chambers of commerce tried to imitate it, but none of them succeeded, and it was still the exclusive market of the Sala Khan Chamber of Commerce. It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

'That d*mned kid ....... I thought he was going to lose his job at Drintor, but I didn't expect him to develop the city to that extent. And now he is also the princess's fiancée. Isn't it easy? ......

'Yes, ....... But I'm sure the Sala Khan Chamber of Commerce had a daughter. If you use it well, maybe--

Hmm, successfully...

That's what I'm talking about: ......

 The two men smiled suspiciously as they worked out their plans. And when they finished talking, Corzino, who had a thin smile on his face, nodded widely.

''--Gufufu, that's a lot of fun ...... Worst case scenario, we can sell them off to other countries. A cat-beast man would fetch a high price as a pet toy.

One was crushed before, but we have others now. Leave it to us.

'You'll know when it works, Matthias.

That, of course, would be a generous donation to .......

 Their private conversation continued, and when it was over, Mathias left the room.
 In the carriage, Mathias held the young female slave he had in the carriage with him and rubbed her breasts.
 The slave woman looked disgusted, but leaned in closer to Matthias.

'All that's left to do is contact the back hand--gghhhh, I can see the crying face of that Sala Khan Trading Company.

 The carriage carrying Mathias with a suspicious smile on his face went back to the Narnis Chamber of Commerce.


 ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇.

 --A nobleman's house.
 A girl jumped vigorously into bed.

Why is there such a thing as a ...... fiancée? I haven't even come of age yet. I've come all the way to the Kingdom of Esfort, and now this: ......

 Unlike the smile she made in the school, she looks dark and angry - Rilutana is alone in bed complaining.

'And yet, I'm the child of a frontier earl, so why would the earl ...... be the first to ask me before I came of age ...... the empire. I'd like to know ...... what happened to him.

 Riltana got up from the bed and left the room.



 In front of Riltana, who is sitting in the parlor, is the butler and householder, and - the nigito, who is also her bodyguard, is waiting for her. Nigito has been following Riltana as an informal bodyguard since she was ten years old.

'Nigito, I want you to find out more about the Earl of Cain von Silford Drintle.

 Nigito nodded his head at Riltana, who gave him instructions.

''Your Highness Riltana, do you intend to come to the Esfort Kingdom and prematurely overtake the present to men ......

Shut up! And you know about Gracia territory! And ...... I'm curious as to why he became an earl at that age. It could be a future revenge before my empire. Just look into it!

 Nigito thanked him deeply, as if he was convinced when he released a word that he didn't mean to say.

''--I understand. I will gather the information here. I'll give you instructions, so here goes.

 Again, after bowing deeply, Nigito left the room.
 Riltana, who was alone, sighed deeply.

'And yet--Cain, you're looking good ....... If only--'

 Picking up the necklace that Cain had picked out for her when she was still young, Riltana muttered to herself in the room where she was left alone.



 --the information was quickly gathered.
 In the reception room, Riltana sat down and a document containing information about Cain was placed in front of her.
 Although they didn't contain information that was kept secret in the upper echelons of the kingdom, such as the apostles and other information that was kept secret in the upper echelons of the kingdom, but even if it was just what was generally known, it was detailed about how much Cain contributed within the kingdom.
 After reading the stack of documents in detail, Riltana threw the documents on the table and sighed deeply.

''--I didn't expect it to be this great: ......

''That's right, sir. I've never heard of a child with this much talent at just thirteen years old, not even in the Empire. I couldn't believe it as I was putting it all together. Moreover, the mansion is decorated with a stuffed SS-class red dragon that he defeated alone when he was a child. ...... I was reminded that the heavens give people many talents.

 The documents that summarize the report show that he single-handedly overran dozens of demons, including a high-ranking species of orc, in order to help His Highness while on his way to King's Landing. After being knighted as a baron, he lived in King's Landing and teamed up with the Chamber of Commerce to bring out a number of revolutionary products. After being elevated to the rank of Viscount, he ruled the city overrun by deputies and rogues, and improved it by expelling all its pus and making it more prosperous. It was also written that even the saints of the Church State were captive to Cain. As for his wealth, even if he was an imperial aristocrat, he also had the potential to have such a huge amount of wealth that he was said to be one of the top five.
 The more I looked at the report, the more I doubted that it was true.
 The nigito sitting across from him also had to roll his tongue at the contents of the report as he compiled the report that had been thrown out.

'I can now understand why His Highness Rilthana told me to look into it. There has never been a more talented child. --I would like to take him straight to the empire as His Royal Highness Riltana's fiancée. Could it be that ...... His Royal Highness Riluthanna is doing this for ......?

 Riltana's cheeks instantly turned red at the word 'fiancée' from Nigito.

'So, so, so! I can't believe you're my fiancée! Cain already has three fiancées. If you include the saints of the Church State, there are already four ...... and now I'm not even going to ......!

 Nigito chuckles as he sees Riltana's expression as she explains impatiently.

'Does that mean His Royal Highness is a maiden of age too? ......

Shut up! More importantly, I'd like to visit this Sala Khan Chamber of Commerce. They say they have many things that the Empire doesn't have.

 Nigita smiled at Riltana, who was hiding her embarrassment.

'Very well, sir. Well, we'll make arrangements for the weekend.'

You can just say that honestly. Totally: ......

 Leaving the room, Nigito sighed in the hallway as he looked over the report again.

''To produce such a talent ...... that could become a hindrance to the empire for the sake of world unity--''
 Nigito muttered as he walked down the empty corridor.



 The weekdays were uneventful and classes were held at the school. Ever since she saw the report, Riltana had been wondering about Cain. To be exact, finding Cain on the first day of transferring to the school made her feel like she was rising to the heavens, but when she found out that His Highness the Princess, the Duchess, was her fiancé, her feelings had fallen to the bottom of the barrel.
 However, as an imperial princess, she wore a mask and had made friends with Telestia and Silk.
 But after reading the report, Riltana had been looking at Cain more often than not, like the very damsel in love. She hadn't neglected her classes, but she was increasingly fawning over Cain's silver hair and back as she looked at him from behind.
 Fortunately, both Telestia and Silk were sitting in the front row, and they probably didn't get to see that look.


 --and the weekend.
 One of the carriages heading to the Sarakhan Chamber of Commerce. The carriage they rode in from the Empire had the royal coat of arms of the Byssus Empire painted on it in large letters. However, the commoners in the city had no way of knowing the imperial royal family's coat of arms, and they assumed it was the coat of arms of some nobleman.
 The carriage arrives at the Sarakhan Chamber of Commerce, and Riltana enters the Chamber of Commerce with Nigito.

 -- where glasswork glasses of brightly colored glasswork were laid out, and Riltana's eyes widened when she saw them.
