Chapter 58

A large number of Othello and Shogi arrived and there are still more demand, but it became stable for the time being.

Everyone noticed. It’s fine if you can get the regular ones from the Yamano territory, by the time of the tournament. Until then, even if you are practicing by drawing square lines on the ground and put some stone on it,…. I don’t care. It’s more difficult to do, though.

Oh, the word [stone] here means, the Othello’s black and white pieces. Even if it is not made of real stone, its called stone. Well, it’s better to call it a piece.

Anyway, the tournament is on the next social season. We still have plenty of time.

Furthermore, people who were initially interested in the product at the tournament, are gradually becoming addicted to the fun of the game itself.

….. According to plan. (…… Keikakudōri.)

In order to give motivation, I went to challenge the [House of aristocrats] who are practicing Othello and Shogi for a game. When I lose, as a prize, I put a disposable lighter for men and sanitary items for women. I will teach them properly how to use it,….. go to another room.

However, since I have only played with friends, I have almost never won against everyone who are practicing passionately.

No~, I just distribute the merchandise and also doing some promotional schemes! Because it will also serve a purpose of [a practice of giving away prizes!].

….. Gununu. (……ぐぬぬ。)

Well, rumors say that Princess Shrine Maiden, is coming to the aristocrats who are playing Othello and Shogi, roaring among aristocrats, ……is it okay ?

Since I can no longer win at all, the noble house tour is over!

==========================

I got a little free time, so I went to the captain’s place after a long absence.

Mitsuha: 「That’s why I came in after a long absence.」

WF Captain: 「What do you mean, “that’s why” …」

Captain of tired faces. (疲れた顔の隊長さん。)

WF Captain: 「There are letters coming from all various countries. Here it is.」

Mitsuha: 「U wa~a……」

I was given an astonishing amount of letters. [Read all this, consider the content and reply?]. Can I just E-mail…. not good I guess…..

WF Captain: 「And also, do you want to open a bank account somewhere? There’s a lot of money from the Dragon .…」

Ooh! Finally the Dragon is linked to make money!

Are they the scales and other materials?

It’s still a little early for the research results to be made into cash…

But, I open an account, there’s only one thing.

I became expressionless and said in a low voice.

Mitsuha: 「… Please transfer it to the Swiss bank account」 (TN: too many references I don’t know which one.)

WF Captain: 「What are you trying to imitate … ….」

Mitsuha: 「Do not stand behind me!」 (TN: Golgo 13 video game reference)

WF Captain: 「No, as i said what are you trying to imitate … ….」

If I get a large sum of the earth money, should I stop moving gold coins?

No, no… It doesn’t matter if you are in a different world, you can earn money even if you go to a distant country, for example. [If you use the knowledge of the earth]. On the other hand, on the earth, if you exhausted the heritage left by your parents, you will end up unemployed and dead broke.

I will bring gold coins to the earth, after all. If I save enough gold coins in the hole without cashing out, I can take it back to the other-side at that time.

Before that, first of all, opening an account and dealing with a letter ……

Bank of Switzerland. It is said that there is no worry that Switzerland will suffer an invasion from other countries because of the existence of collecting deposits from wealthy businessmen, politicians, dictators, criminals, etc. all over the world by concealing personal names and selling their secrecy.

Along with universal conscription and the existence of a powerful army, it is one of the big pillars to realize the permanent neutrality. Permanent neutrality is not a sweet thing that can be accomplished just by declaration. If you told me that it is sweet, it will be an invasion in the blink of an eye and it is over.

Even if it says [Swiss bank], there is no Bank with such name, [Swiss bank] is a collective name of many banks that follow the Swiss banking law.

you know, it’s like this…. [Swiss bank is not a name of a single bank. Those who use the technique of the Swiss banking law, all of them … … ] Have you got tired of hearing the story of [Sarutobi no jutsu]?

Well, there are a lot of stuff about Swiss banks, such as [Swiss bank which comes out in comics and novels], but it does not do salary transfer or automatic payment of utility fee, and the Private Bank which the customer has to pay account maintenance fee instead of the deposit interest.

Like in a Japanese bank, if you go to open an account immediately, do you need an interview and a review with the person in charge?

Eh,…. I.. I’m going out alone suddenly?

That’s right, even if a mysterious girl comes in suddenly, I don’t think she needs to go through the interview or a review.

Well~ ….

A bunch of letters in front of me, is troublesome.

Oh, I wish there was a representstive.

A person with, as much impact as possible.

However, the influence of the people of the great countries, are so…….

For a good person, in a small country, the habit, the name is known, influence is good.

Hmmm….

There is no such person,… isn’t there?

Well~, let’s choose accordingly.

When I look at the letters, most of them are invitations to parties or events. Because I didn’t show up for quite a while, it have already passed.

Also, they asked me to give samples of organisms and minerals, and they offered weapons and technical guidance.

[Weapons],.. You just want to get rid of the old weapons with bad stock in the warehouse.

[Technical guidance],.. You just want to send personnel to gather information.

Well, unless you are an engineer who can make a bike that can run 280km a day on a dirt road, with just the materials and equipment on the other side, then I will not accept it.

I looked over the letter and ask for an introduction to the Swiss bank, then I opened the 2 last letters that was left.

Yes, the letters from 2 small countries that we gave biological samples. It seems that the agent brought directly, and not by mail.

First, the country that received several kinds of plants that are used as medicinal plants.

Well, the 2 samples have almost the same thing on Earth?

3 of them have already been discovered on Earth…

Did you find 1 ingredient that you don’t understand?

Eh….. Continuing research,…?

I’m sorry for not having good result, so I’ll give you some extra plants and animals…

And the other country that received some small animals when I went to pick up a wooden ship … and …

Eh?……

When acetic acid is added to the slime, it becomes like a hard and resilient high-pressure rubber?

I haven’t found a rubber tree over there yet!

If you think about it, you can’t make bicycle tires without rubber. For a tire to be processed, a mixture of various materials and also adding some…….

Is this… Perhaps, a great discovery?

But, normally, adding vinegar to a meat would make it soft….

Eh…. Have I tried eating slime? No, Of course Not!….. There’s no one out there in their right mind that would do that!

Hmmm….

Will it increase rapidly if you feed it some garbage?

Meat flesh! ! ~tsu~tsu~tsu! ! ( 視肉かッッッ！！ )

[As a result, its not suitable for cooking!! ] (TN: is it even edible?)

I’m not even surprised anymore…

Let’s ask for the continuation of the research on the (slime) resiliency and flexibility. If you don’t make money on earth, you can’t give research expenses.

I’ll give you additional animals in this country as well. I wonder if there is something good….

Before this, people in the fishing village acquired strange creatures offshore, so if you ask them what’s in the net, many people will say [Anomalocaris]. (TN: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomalocaris )

It was written as [pgr]. Is it also from the earth? I did not know that there was such a thing. Regrettably …. (Zan’nen….)

After that, I was able to open a Swiss bank account, and safely went through the examination.

After all, did the representative work?

Oh, I didn’t came with you for the screening. If something goes wrong, the secret of absolutely strict cognizance will leak. Besides, he cannot go abroad that easily. I just got a letter of introduction and I got to prove that it was real for the confirmation from the bank.

It’s a big country, but it’s still about an invitation, but I think I’ll come up with something more aggressive approach.

Well, if I decide to rarely come to Earth, progress will be delayed and we will not do any hasty things, so what then?

Also, something to do with the earth … ….

Oh, a carriage!

As expected, it is bad that there is no horse-drawn carriage.

It is strange that there are no carriages even just for a show as a means of transporting the kingdom and the territory, and a ride is necessary to go to the party.

Until now?

I walked there, the Earl came to pick me up, and asked the coach. But I have to do something about it. As expected, going on a bicycle is out of the question. After all, I’m wearing a dress.

No, of course, even not in a dress, I will not go with a bicycle!

Eh… You can buy a wagon over there, you say?

I don’t like it, such a thing, without the springs, it hurts.. My butt hurts.

It should be a nice and comfortable ride. (TN: ask Tempest to make one for you.)

Besides, since it is a vehicle from middle ages, accidents and breakdowns lead to injury and death. If safety is a priority, it should be made of Earth. Because it’s light, you will also get speed.

There are still many countries that builds carriages, so let’s order high performance one. It’ll probably very expensive, but it can’t be helped. Its too reckless to ask Randy-san, indeed.

And, then finnish up the errands on the earth, as a [princess of the other world with a kettle], returned to the Kingdom’s capital.

Social season is about to end.
