Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
Travelling in the Reichstaag Commercial District

if anyone says the foreign students of the Heinz kingdom were troublemakers and trouble-seekers, it was not a figment a week ago, he spent the whole night chatting with Margaret. Issac became aware of many things that were happening in the empire thanks to him.

he did not understand why they liked to provoke a commotion.Maybe if they were to look for trouble with the common people, Issac would have no trouble to solve it.as long as he compensated at a reasonable price, the problem can be solved because they have no political intentions.

it would be another story if what he was facing was a noble, knight, or other important person.the compensation in the form of money alone was not enough.they would ask for many burdensome requirements of their opponents. the political nuance really feels.

he was grateful that Margaret noted all the problems posed by them. This made it easier for Issac to negotiate with the 'victims' for the resolution of the problem.Anything with the kingdom, he said, he didn't like it if the victims of the ruckus extorted something from the kingdom. Aurellia would definitely be overwhelmed taking care of it.

actually, this problem is not purely the fault of the children of Heinz. imperial noble gangs often provoke a no-no fuss so that the students of the kingdom are provoked emotions. but Issac has some leads.

those who were sent by the empire were children of nobles who had no right to bequeath their surnames.so they thought that their parents threw their children away under the guise of sending them abroad.

"So, what do you want to do now, Issac? you're here to clean up the mess they all made, right? I understand it's hard for you, so don't hesitate to ask for my help, okay?"

Issac is now in class. Because of the break, the class is empty. The other students are having lunch in the cafeteria of the academy. Issac and Margaret brought lunch made by Lady Heid so they did not go there for lunch.

"For now, I will continue to monitor the progress of this case.all of you, I want to find incriminating evidence that all the chaos committed by students from our country is not purely their fault."

if he had that evidence, he could have settled all these cases for a small fee. Margaret seemed to agree with the actions that Issac considered carefully.he knew that Issac was sent by the king and the officials as an ambassador for the empire and Margaret had asked her father to help Issac.

"by the way Margaret. do you want to accompany me around the Reichstaag this Sunday? you've known Reichstaag far longer than I have."

Margaret seemed to be considering something, but ten seconds later, she nodded.

"relax! I will definitely accompany you around the capital, but make sure you prepare enough stamina! The Reichstaag is much larger than the Venz!"

all right, this week's activities are set! there are many things that Issac wanted to see while he was here.

"Hey, you know.this year's academy has a unique transfer student.he made it into S class with just one try!"

"You mean the transfer student of that weak kingdom? at the very most, he was not much different from the others! he's just a little smarter than those monkeys!"

the imperial academy had many buildings and empty spaces.just as in Heinz, this spoiled elite horde of the empire used one of those rooms as their gathering place.if Issac saw this horde, he said, he would only think that they were nothing more than spoiled children who happened to be born from rich families.

"In that case, are we going to do something to him? like we used to do with that delinquent?"

"Of course, right? we just throw the bait and let him take it! after that, we'll get a lot of prey!"

just like Issac, it seems that their activities have also been determined.

****

at that time, Issac was just passing by in the commercial district.but he really did not expect that the shopping area in the Reichstaag would be this large and crowded!

although more crowded and dense, the layout is more neat and orderly. the road is more neat and wide. various caravans trade and people alternately cross this road. Issac could not imagine how much money was spinning around here.

Margaret looks very pretty today.she wears a pink long-sleeved Maxi dress.it matches her hair color.Heterochromia eyes are more radiant than usual.

"sorry for a long time, Issac."

"It's okay. I deliberately came early because I wanted to enjoy the atmosphere here longer.but Margaret...Why did you bring them both?"

Margaret was not alone. Angelica was deliberately invited by Margaret.okay, she can still understand that.but Agatha?

"Don't get me wrong. I'm just here to make sure you don't do anything weird like your other friends."

Tsundere.he really is Tsundere! okay, forget about that. They both also had the same beautiful appearance as Margaret. Angelica for example, she wears a cream-colored long-sleeved Maxi dress.

but the most exotic appearance is the appearance of Agatha.she expects a Maxi dress as well but without sleeves. The dress also does not touch her ankles.but stops at the knees.the black dress really fits her.

Issac began his tour with the three girls, taking Issac around and exploring various corners of the commercial district. they also invited him to snack at various stalls and carts that held his stall there. Initially they wanted to pay each one. but as a form of thanks, Issac treat them all.

in addition to snacks at a roadside kiosk, Issac was also invited to stop by a store that very interested him, a bookstore. when he entered, various types of books on display there. starting from romance novels to books that have very high values.

"hahhh...you're too much to thank, yes, Issac.but if you say that why not? I'll pick everything I like!"

Angelica is most enthusiastic when it comes to books. Margaret and Agatha were also intrigued by some books.they ended up skimming through the entire bookstore.

"hey, salesman, is this the whole book you have?"

the seller master who had just written a financial note on his desk looked at Issac. From the looks of it, he was truly a potential customer!

"Actually we still have a lot of interesting collections! if the customer wants, I'll take you inside! come on, follow me!"

Issac followed the seller's master deeper into his shop. The place was rather dark and gloomy.perhaps because rarely people were interested in the books that were here.

in this world, books become an expensive commodity, in addition to the expensive price of paper because the production technology is not as advanced as the modern world as in the life of Issac before it, printing presses were also available on a limited and meager basis, so most writers used their hands to write their works.only noble families had printing presses or imperial families. ordinary people obviously think more about money to eat tomorrow than buying a book.

as the seller said, the collection of books here is more diverse.there are books on iron forging techniques, the science of agriculture and animal husbandry, and civil engineering that includes the manufacture of canals, forts, irrigation canals, and so on, bridges, and highways.There is also a record of the adventures of a traveler. These are all valuable possessions!

"where'd you get this whole book, master salesman?"

"many things.but most people sell these books because they are in need of money.they sell all of this to me for a very cheap price!"

ah, here it is! this is what Issac had been looking for all along!

"sir, what if we make a deal."

"hmmm? what kind of deal is that?"

"i'll buy most of the books here. I don't need a discount. But instead, send me the names and addresses of the people who sell this book.agree?"

"you really want to buy most of these books?! for that, you will have to take out some platinum coins because this is a valuable item!"

Issac took out ten imperial platinum coins from his pocket.it actually came from his spatial magic but let's miss the details.

"is this enough?"

"No!! that's too...."

then I'll add."

Issac took out another five platinum coins from his pocket.The seller seemed to be very shocked by it.

"Wait on!! I'm not done talking! that's too much! three platinum coins is enough!!"

Issac simply shrugged his shoulders and left Five platinum coins in his hands.he had over five million imperial coins. These five coins are just coins.

"Here, I'll add two coins.think of it as a form of friendship.There, make me a list of the names and addresses of the people who sold you this book.I need it right now."

"ready boss! carry it out!"

as soon as the master of the seller came out of this room, Issac activated his spatial magic and inserted most of the books that were here into it to prevent leakage, he was about to cast a magic that caused the seller master to never think about his magic.

Issac came out after putting all his books in, Issac walked out. It turned out that the seller master had already finished making the list he needed.The girls had also chosen their own books.

"how many are these uncle?"

Angelica asked the seller's master.it seemed like she and the others had decided to pay for their own groceries.

"No, no, no! today I'm having a special discount! all the books you have chosen have already been paid for by this master! thanks sir! come back!!"

Angelica, Agatha, and Margaret are both confused. Discount? since when did that stingy uncle give sensei a discount?

"Issac, what are you doing?!"

Agatha looked at Issac sharply.while Issac just shrugged his shoulders casually.I don't know.he didn't do anything. Importantly, he had new plans for the future.
