Escaping the bandits' raid, after rendezvous with Marta and the others at the Marida Chamber of Commerce, he continued to run through the darkness in the middle of the night towards the King's Capital with only a small lantern light.

After all, there was no pursuit of the Bandits. We arrived with the dawn at the Kingdom of Kurt Melga, the king's capital, Kurt Melga.

At the same time as opening the gate, he entered the capital and told the security guards at the castle gate that he had been attacked by bandits at a rest stop on Kurtomerga's side.

Asked about the situation and checked my identity, but I decided to leave my ID with my luggage in the carriage at the berth.

If identification cannot be verified, entry to the Wang capital is severely restricted, but even the Wang capital was able to enter the capital with the issuance of provisional identity cards due to the identity protection of the fingerfolding Marida Chamber of Commerce and the Chairman of the Maltese Chamber of Commerce.

Talking all blurry about the time of the raid, Wang Du's guards were heading to the rest stop and dispatching the Knights in a hurry.

Upon finishing the paperwork and being released from the guard's stuffing, a smile was also returning to the faces of the employees of the Marida Chamber of Commerce. But they all looked tired, shattered by the fear of overnight travel and pursuit......

"Is this the king's capital..."

Sitting at the wagon table, he went to the Marida Chamber of Commerce's headquarters, listening to Mr. Marta about the Wang capital.

Kurtomerga, the king's capital, has been in the land since its founding more than five hundred years ago, expanding in circles around the royal castle, and the expansion of the wall, which has been done many times over the years, has now taken the form of being surrounded by triple walls.

It is divided into a first district inhabited by aristocrats, a second district with numerous chambers of commerce, shops, entertainment districts and other commercial establishments, and a third district inhabited by the general public and merchants who cannot enter the second district.

It supports the food situation near Wangdu, where a vast area of farmland extends outside the walls and reaches a population of 500,000. In addition, rivers flowing longitudinally across the Wang capital are treasured as water resources and waterways.

The township of Wangdu was centered on the third district, which had a lot of wooden architecture, and on entering the second district, the same stone architecture as the fortified city of Barga.

Marta's Marida Chamber of Commerce says it has its head office in District II and branches in District III as well. Marta's home is also at the head office, and now he drives a carriage there.

"Shaft, I'll be there in a little while, but who should I introduce to my family?

"Stay on the shaft, please. And there's something we'd like to talk about in confidence later."

I have not told Marta that the bandit's aim may have been at the Marida Chamber of Commerce. There are employees' ears in the front behind them, and they decided they shouldn't talk until they settled down once.

"Arrived, this is the headquarters of the Marida Chamber of Commerce"

The main office of the Marida Chamber of Commerce, like the Barga branch, had three stone floors, but the size was different. Some of the ground floor portions seemed to combine parking and went inside each carriage.

"Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce?! Wasn't the arrival this evening?

When the wagon entered the parking lot, he heard the noise and an employee of the head office showed his face. Our arrival schedule was definitely supposed to be this evening, so I can't help but be surprised.

When Ms. Marta told the employees at the head office that she had escaped the raid, the moderate mood in the morning turned and the employees at the head office rushed off.

The employees who accompanied them from the castle city of Barga moved to the employee quarters that were located behind the head office. Open from overnight tension, they need rest. Work such as unloading and unloading is entrusted to the employees of the head office, who then head to the dormitory. In doing so, they all thanked me with tears in their eyes.

For me, too, there was something in my mind that shocked me at this job, even though I was breaking it off. The same goes for killing people, but more importantly, this was the thought of saving them from the hearts and minds of Marta and his employees.

"Shaft, I'll make you some tea in the back. Let's leave this place to our employees and let's get some rest too."

"Oh, let's have it, but before that,"

I summon a gift BOX from TSS (Tactical Support System). Particles of light converge, and BOX emerges like wrapped in flashy wrapping paper. The surrounding employees are also surprised by the sight.

The lid at the top of the gift BOX came up, put his hands in a black monochromatic space inside, and took them out of it were the bags loaded in the carriage that he had left at the berth.

Yes, the only thing I burned with TH3 incendiary grenades is literally a carriage. All the bags and luggage boxes loaded inside were stored in my gift BOX before the raid.

I had the expensive demon stones carried in Mr. Malta's carriage because if something happened to me, the gift BOX would naturally not be able to be summoned, all the supplies I put inside would have been lost.

To avoid that, Marta and the others decided that I would hold together the rest of the food and relatively inexpensive materials.

It was an on-the-spot decision to burn the carriage at the berth, but Mr. Malta had abandoned the carriage at the stage of separating the luggage. I burned an empty carriage there to divert attention from my retreat and not to use it to transport bandits.

Depositing the shipment bags and luggage boxes to be shipped one after the other from Gift BOX, Marta took them and headed to Marta's private space at the back of the head office.

"Oh, delicious..."

Marta's own room in the mansion, built behind the head office, was put through, and the tea the maid brought him, finally allowed him to take a breather.

"Among the tea plantations grown in the northern part of Wangdu, this tea is made from the finest tea leaves, picked up only in a more carefully selected tea field, that is, with two leaves attached from the tip."

"Clear intensity but no clutter, and a sweet floral smell that fragrances. Wonderful tea."

"I can see that, Schwartz. Same goes for you."

Oh yummy...... I liked to drink all kinds of tea from different countries on my previous trip to the world. There was openness and tranquillity from the world of FPS, starting with tea practices, tea drinking spaces, teacups, various dishes, drinking them while loving, which represented the culture of that country, pointing nerves, reacting to the slightest sounds heard, identifying and sniping one dot.

Empty the teacup and put on the Kevlar mask that was off to the side again. And I'm going to sprinkle the subject that I have to talk to Mr. Malta about.

"Malta, about the bandit raid, but their aim wasn't the load they were carrying, but the Marida Chamber of Commerce itself, which means you might be yourself"

"... I see, was the bandit saying anything?

"Don't let the merchants get away with it."

"Really? Shaft, I'm really sorry about this one, but I think I may have gotten involved in a commercial zone dispute in Wang Du."

It is behind the merchants of the King's Capital that Mr. Malta spoke to me while saying so. On the face of it, he is an incisive fellow in the Second District of the Wang Capital, but behind it, he seeks connections with royal marquis nobility, large clans, and professional guilds, and has a fierce commercial area feud.

And there are never many merchants inside who conspire with assassination guilds and bandit guilds behind them and steal the commercial zone with force moves, he said. With the back shield of the great aristocracy and large clans, the monopoly of commodities and markets is also a common story, and Marta was immediately deciding that it was the monopoly of this market that was targeted this time.

What is that market? It is the harvest festival of the labyrinth of the Green Ghost, west of the fortified city of Barga.

Having heard of the existence of the Green Ghost's Labyrinth as soon as possible, Ms. Malta sought speed and showed enough action to travel alone between the Wang Capital and Barga. He connected his face with the lords and powerful men of Barga and provided supplies and food support… Yes, that rice he ate in the labyrinth of the Green Ghost was carried by Mr. Malta.

That's how he was getting priority purchase rights for many supplies and empty demon stones, which will be brought back at the harvest festival. As part of this shipment, they bought up a large number of demonic stones.

Priority purchase rights for harvest festivals are equal to a substantial monopoly. Furthermore, Marta is planning to bring in lunches for this harvest festival.

The beginning of the harvest festival is a labyrinth sweep by adventurers and knights. But when it's over, there will be no warcraft or subrace in the labyrinth.

In doing so, a declaration of the safety of the labyrinth will be issued and even the general public will enter the labyrinth without a permit. Mr. Malta was eyeing this, selling lunches to the general public and workers to eat in the labyrinth.

The general public and workers do not have the same portable cookware as adventurers, or even tool bags. They also come to the labyrinth in the sky demon stone moat.

Why don't you have some delicious food there to eat in the labyrinth? Naturally, the price will be an inexpensive menu that keeps it down, but there's no way I'm going to jump at this. Everyone gets bored with water, bread and dried meat.

If you can operate in the labyrinth for a long time, that's how easy it is to get empty demon stones. That means a chance to get a lot of money to sell.

Also, the lunch boxes shown at the harvest festival will similarly catch the attention of many adventurers. Even after the harvest festival, it is easy to imagine that there will be demand for adventurers. The creation of new demand turns the economy and a lot of money turns, which the Marida Chamber of Commerce is trying to hold in its hands.

Not all the other chambers of commerce will know what the Marida Chamber of Commerce is after. But it is possible that the harvest festival's right of first refusal alone could be targeted, yes, Mr. Malta decided.

It wasn't the Wild Big Bandits that attacked me at the berth, the loose ends I gathered by letting the gold say things, I guess there was a massive mix. So I made a hypothesis, so how do we deal with it in the future? Someone comes into Mr. Malta's own room, I'm just saying.

"Father! Is it true you were attacked!

It was a chestnut-haired girl as young as 10 who came in screaming like that.
