Chapter 195.3 : (Sarasa’s POV) Fruit’s of a Wife’s Labour?! She’s Too Forward All Things Considered!

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

My name is Sarasa. While I’m Margo’s wife, I also hold another side of me as a ‘merchant’. 

One day my husband, Margo, came to discuss something. He was distressed and his face looked very apologetic.

“I want to save Keigo and to do so, we need to rescue Bavarian-sama from Heinrich’s imprisonment. This plan might put my life and the lives of other people involved in danger but I.. If I don’t do it, I might regret it for the rest of my life so, please… Sarasa…”

I was actually happy with my husband’s decision. I think it’s very wonderful for a man to be willing to put his life in danger in order to save his friend. 

“Of course. Keigo is my best friend too. Let’s beat Heinrich to pulp! He needs to receive divine punishment for snatching Ash-chan away from me!”

After that, I made full use of my connections as a merchant and brought the necessary provisions for battle into Elsa’s inn such as food, potions, weapons and armor. The two-story inn was spacious enough and had a warehouse which made it an ideal place for our resistance’s secret base. Margo said that after we rescued Bavarian-sama, we would need to hide him in this secret base first. 

I exposed Heinrich’s evil deeds to the traveling merchants I trusted and asked for their help as well. After all, providing the necessary provisions alone was not enough. We also needed to give fair compensation to those who would be fighting for us. Although the adventurers might refuse the compensation because they were doing this out of a sense of obligation, since they would literally put their life on the line here, we couldn’t just let them go unpaid like some sort of volunteer work. Also, I asked Kishuu-san, a doctor who served the townspeople, to make the drug Margo had requested. 

I wonder what he’s going to use that drug for?

Kishuu-san was staying at Elsa’s inn since he would be in charge of treating the resistance members if they got hurt. The name of our resistance group was ‘Blue Group’. Margo was the one who came up with the name since blue was Keigo’s favorite color.

And so, the rescue mission would take place tomorrow night.

“It’s alright. I’m sure God is watching over us. I don’t like relying on God but I refuse to believe there’s a God who would let an outrageous injustice like this go on without any punishment.”

I muttered to myself as I closed my store, Mithril’s Balance, at night.
