At the same time, Ayase who was heading to the living room was guided
by Stefan the butler, even when making a meek face he
grinning in his heart.
"…… I won !!"
"Live Skill [Item Shop]!!!"
Ayase, who was guided to the guest room, picked up the one item
by one from [Item Box]. Carefully folded dress so as not to tangle.
A few hours later, Stefan came to pick up Ayase
to guide him to the dining room was so surprised he raised his voice
thoughtlessly.
... For Stefan the Butler of Steel, it was a mistake
lifetime time.
“Master, I have brought Ayase-sama”
“Um, show her a seat.”
Unlike the previous meeting with the form
aristocratic, there is now an informal form of family dinner with
a friend invited. No need for fancy words.
And when they see Ayase guided by Stefan get into the
the dining room, the Walker family members stopped breathing.
Brilliantly shining white dress, sparkling enamel shoes.
A large pearl necklace with an unknown price on its neck. An
contrast the white dress and the thick black hair with the necklace that should be
nothing in this world.
But even that only plays a supporting role for
complete the beauty of the girl.
As if time had stopped, a moment of silence passed
just like that.
Ramires restarted after grimacing for a moment from
the footsteps were deliberately made by Stefan. Then the others started too
movin' in. Lousy. Sofia's eyes were directed at the necklace and did not break
his line of sight.
"Thank you for inviting me"
Ayase lightly greeted politely and sat down on the chair.
“U, um, welcome. It's a family gathering so
no need to worry about forms, manners, words, and other things.
Enjoy your food easily. Otherwise, this amazing food
it won't taste so good. ”
Ayase smiled and replied with an okay greeting to Ramires.
During the meal, the unbroken conversation continues. Ramires
introducing the child to Ayase to apologize for not introducing her
family at previous meetings.
The main subject begins at last. Everyone is in tension, though,
including Ayase.
"Ah, Miss Ayase"
"Y, yeah!"
Ayase's voice cracked at Ramires' words.
"No, no, it's not like I'm gonna eat you,
so calm down."
"Yes ..."
Even if it is said to be easy, impossible is impossible.
"You who? I'd like you to answer honestly if
Youcan. “
Well, it's finally time for the show.
“Yes, it's true I come from a different place than
this continent. Although I gave the surname to meet the earl,
now I leave my country and go to this continent of position and status
social I mean nothing ”
Everything's true. Ayase came from somewhere other than the continent
this and announced his surname to meet with the earl. Is that
his real name or not is another story.
“The reason why I left my country, well, I guess
it would be called the succession issue. My father died of illness and was natural to.
my gentle and intelligent sister to succeed that title, but to
some reason there are weak-minded people who insist that I
should replace him rather than my brother. I left the house while
leave letter. Because I'll be found and brought back if I
being nearby, I took the ship to another continent…. What I brought
is this necklace, which is part of my personal belongings and
my mom's memories ”
Well it's all a lie... Even though they seem to believe
that it's true. But let them think like that.
"I'm actually traveling with my fiancee, but
our journey is separate. Attacks from monsters. We promise we will
met back in the capital but... As you know. I've been
spend my money, so I'll sell you a necklace from mom's mementos
me."
"J, sell!?"
"You, do you know what you say!?"
"Oh yeah, this is made of real pearls. So I thought
will sell it at a pretty expensive price."
*Bang*Sofia hit the table for excitement.
“You know, pearls can have a price range that
be different. Color, shape, size, nacre thickness, and many other things. And,
this necklace, its shape is close to the true ball while being size
the largest, the depth of color indicates the thickness of the coating,"
*Bla bla bla* In short. These pearls will be very difficult to
sold, because this type of pearl is very rare. And he said auction
it is also useless because it cannot determine the first price.
"Em, if you want, I can hand it over to Sofia-sama
..."
Sofia stiffened from Ayase's explosive speech. And,
slowly moving only the upper part of the neck he looked at Ramires.
Ramires who was pale in fear asked his son.
"I, Sofia .. I want to know what the market price is
..."
"Markets? There's no such thing, it's something
which shouldn't exist. Something that should not exist in this world,
priceless treasures, of the like all over the world."
Heeee! Exceeding the expectations !!
I think it'll sell high in a world without aquaculture,
but not that high ... Though I thought that if it was cheap on Earth
it would be expensive here but the cultured pearl necklace was too excessive….
I'll start the second plan!
“Um, if this can not be sold, then I am stuck in the country
which I don't know anything about without money or acquaintances. All I need
today is not a beautiful necklace but useless, but money
support my life."
"Hmm, so... How about this, I'll give you
this pearl necklace to Sofia-sama. And as his payment. I want an
shop in the capital. For me to sell and as a place to live as well, before
I met my fiance again."
I offered this proposal to both of them.
And I made a face ask. How about this?
"Ayase-san, you. This kind of thing..."
Sofia was stunned by that.
"Well, we don't have a problem with that."
Ramires agreed with the offer.
…… Yeay, it worked!!
“By the way, Ayase-chan, you will put her shop in
the capital? What kind of shop is that? ”
"Yes, I'll make a general store ..."
"General store?"
Sofia made an empty expression.
"Yes, various small products and cosmetics, such as
cute accessories, especially things that women want, and some items
practical ... And I want to harness my country's knowledge and do
angle consulting"
"Wow, that seems interesting ! But what an angle
a consultation? ”
“ I think there are a lot of different things between here and
my country, and sometimes there will be serious things in this country that
we've finished it in our country, which is why I wonder if
there is something that can be useful ”
"Hou, that's obviously interesting"
Ramires slips into the conversation.
"Earl, do you have a problem that you
bother you?"
"Well, something bothers me, huh ..."
After thinking for a moment, Ramires said with a bitter smile.
"Grain yields in the region have declined recently
this although there is no specific cause, but nothing can be done
about that ..."
"Eh, isn't that soil thinning from monocropping
or lack of fertilizer?"
"Eh"
Ayase explained. If only the same plant is planted, then,
the same nutrients will be taken and the soil will become barren. Planting other plants and
apply “rotation plant”. Grass. Compostable. Mulch go ... However, the name and
certain plant details are omitted. There's a cost to that.
Ramires bites. Question by question. While
drenching the thirsty throat with booze, the conversation shifted quickly
and spread to other topics.
