199 . Society 4
“And of course, there are strong request from many influential nobles and large merchants to have their daughters admitted” (Mitchan)
“Yeah, but the most powerful ones among them have declined or ignored or overtly rejected the initial invitation . So, of course…” (Mitsuha)
“ “Rejected!” “(Mitsuha & Mitchan)
Umu-umu .
Eh? The girls who declined the initial invitation are rolling around, throwing a tantrum?
Why should I care?
They refused at their discretion after considering all the information they have at that time, right?
Then, even if they’re now reflecting on themselves that should’ve gathered more information or that they should’ve considered more, I think they don’t have to regret it .
Yeah, Gamba! Raise your tail!
(Note: it’s a reference ofGamba no Bouken . and [shippo wo tatero! (raise your tail!)] is the main character, Gamba’s catchphrase)
“And one of the members, the daughter of count Sylvette, has requested help . The contents are, [There’s someone I definitely want to get closer to . I want to do something at his birthday party . I humbly ask your favor!]…” (Mitchan)
Mitchan has a rather cold attitude . She must be thinking that that you should face that kind of thing by your own power .
…and for me, of course…
“Alright, the great opportunity to show off the power of the [Society] and our products to the world has come!!!” (Mitsuha)
“…eh?” (Mitchan)
Leaving the dumbfounded Mitchan alone, let’s prepare everything at once…
But before that…
“Please contact her immediately . Tell her to make room for a couple of days for taking the measurements for her dress and for strategic meetings…” (Mitsuha)
“Eeeeeh?” (Mitchan)
“Kita! Kitakitakitakitakitaaaa ~~!” (Tenchou-san) (Note: Kita = Came)
After a long absence, Kifujin Tenchou has returned!
Yeah, when it comes to an urgent order for a dress, she’s the only one .
After all, she’ll leave the rest of her work behind and stay up all night just to complete the dress as soon as possible .
This time, we have a lot of days to spare, so it’s okay to do it without putting too much burden on her .
And the concept of the dress this time is [Combat uniform for a foreign noble lady to challenge a boy she absolutely wants to defeat] .
“Leave it to me!! Please leave it to me!!” (Tenchou-san)
Please mind your nosebleed…

And next is…
“…eh?” (beautician-san)
There’s a 27 – 28 years old oneesan staring at me, dumbfounded .
Yeah, she is the beauty staff member at the department store’s cosmetics shop who put on the makeup on Colette-chan last time .
I went to thank her for Colette-chan’s makeup and secretly handed her an envelope .
You probably thought it was cash, but it’s just a piece of paper, just a message .
[I want to request a makeup job personally . The place is a room of a luxury hotel in this city, and the other party is a foreign girl alone . All necessary cosmetics are provided, and if the reputation spreads afterward, there’s a possibility of continuous mass requests . The enemy is a 16-year-old noble boy and other party participants . The reward is 100,000 yen] .
Ten minutes after the department store closed, she contacted my phone number .
Well, of course, she would…
Then, just like when I brought Adelaide-chan, I bring the client to Kifujin Tenchou for taking measurements and grasping the image, and at the same time, I also meet the beauty staff oneesan .
Yeah, I was a little worried about the actual appearance, skin quality, and various other factors if we straight up jump on the D-day without rehearsal . It will also be related to cosmetics and tools preparation .
For that reason, we set the schedule according to the oneesan’s circumstances . The Kifujin Tenchou is self-employed, so anytime is okay for her .
The client had her skin examined with some kind measuring instrument, but she just put up with it dignified without being scared .
Was it because of her pride as a noble girl, or was it because she wants to prepare for everything she can before facing a battle that she should never lose…
At the [society] ’s tea party, I also asked everyone to cooperate .
As a reward, they can observe in detail when the cosmetics expert is putting the makeup on the client .
…of course, they all bit the bait .
Well, naturally, I only asked those who have been invited to that party .

Alright, It has become interesting!
“…this way please” (Mitsuha)
I guided the beauty staff oneesan to a room at the best luxury hotels in this town .
Well, since this is just a small rural town, even though I said [luxury hotel], it is just the well-known one .
But, well, it is the best hotel in town, so it’s not a suspicious place .
If you’re wondering why I bothered to call her to an expensive hotel…
“I’m sorry, can I put a blindfold on you for a moment?” (Mitsuha)
“Eh?” (Beautician oneesan)
Yeah, if someone says that before you enter a room at a cheap hotel, you’ll be cautious .
…no, of course, she’ll be cautious even at this hotel .
“……” (Beautician oneesan)
See? she’s on guard…
I thought that since I’m not a man, just a powerless girl, and Colette-chan is also here, she’ll be less cautious, but apparently, my thoughts were overly optimistic .
Well, I guess it’s natural for a woman to feel a sense of crisis if someone wants to blindfold her before taking her to a room she doesn’t know since she doesn’t know who’s waiting inside .
But there’s no need to have the thugs wait in a place where they can immediately be seen right after the door opened . If you really want to deceive someone, you’ll want to leave the suspicious guys waiting in the bathroom, invite your target inside the room, and block the way out .
So there’s no need to blindfold her in front of the room if I want to deceive her .
Also, from the conversation when we met at the Kifujin Tenchou’s store, she should’ve known that I’m an old friend of the Kifujin Tenchou . That’s why she should’ve known that I’m not a suspicious person, but…
“…I understand” (beautician oneesan)

It seems that she can tell what I was thinking, so she took the eye mask I presented .
Then, Colette-chan gripped the hand of the eye-mask-wearing oneesan, and I opened the door with the key, and the three of us went into the room .
Close the door, hook the chain along with the auto-lock, and then transfer!
And we appeared in the guest room at Mitchan’s house . Because it is a large room, the door cannot be seen from the inner part .
Yeah, the guest room of a Marquis family is nothing to be underestimated .
It can’t be compared to the reception room of the house that a Japanese office worker dad desperately took a loan to build it .
And when I take the eye mask off the oneesan…
“Fueeeee!!!” (the oneesan)
She let out an astonished voice .
“A-amazing! I thought this was a countryside hotel, but to think that the room is this big and luxurious! It might be good to come and stay here to indulge myself in luxury once a year!” (the oneesan)
Aah, sorry . Probably the suite room I saw in the brochure won’t even come close to this room . Unless you go to a top-class hotel in a big city, you wouldn’t be able to find a room like this .
In the past, I heard from a friend from a wealthy family, based on her story, when she stayed at the top floor suite of Hotel Aura in a certain port town, it cost hundreds of thousands of yen to stay overnight without meals .
Well, leaving that aside…
“This way please” (Mitsuha)
“Ah, yes!” (the oneesan)
The oneesan hurriedly followed Colette-chan and me who continued walking . The heavy shoulder bags hung on both of her shoulders are making noises .
Yeah, the shoulder bags are full of cosmetics and makeup tools .
They are all brand new, and I will buy all of them after we used them . In other words, today, the oneesan is not just making extraordinary income, but also contributing an excellent sales performance to the store she is working for . Moreover, if this could be continued in the future…
Of course, she would get hooked on my offers this time .
And we walked a few meters to a position where we could see the inner part of the room, and there, we can see…
The appearance of seven dressed-up noble girls sitting around a table .
