Chapter 33: Conclusion Festival
After sealing the Miasma Hole of Doom for the second time, I returned to the kingdoms capital. Water mostly went down already.
No matter how much magic is used to generate a flood, a good land with drainage cant be made a lake forever.
Lyle-sensei was preparing for the attack of a advance magician but it seems that he realized that Gale has failed and did not show up again.
Sensei was frustrated to the point of stomping with vexation his foot on the ground. Probably because the preparation were not enough.
As for that magician, the identity remains a mystery.
An advanced magician is famous in every country, so I thought we can find it but it seems that there is no corresponding person.
Well, its hiding with the use of a black robe.
It is already sunset at the time were finished taking care of most of the remains of monsters.
In spite of that fierce battle, I was amazed at Louise, who started dismantling the monsters flesh.
Im the one who said to postpone it when were climbing the mountain. I can not see the bottom of Louises physical strength.
Well, were distributing rice porridge for the refugees. We also helped with cooking. After eating, I fell on my face on the ground since Im quite exhausted.
Finally, the rebuilding of the Kingdoms Capital began a few days later.
Scene Change
Thus, Takeru-dono will be the regent of Princess Silhouette.
Is that the pattern again?
Finally, sensei has a sense of extraordinary feeling against me.
By the way, what rank is it? If an official is appointed to a position that far exceeds his ability, the other party will put a curse and kill him.
*TN: Takeru is thinking about what is a regent and his ability to be one.
You want to avoid marrying Princess Silhouette? Collaboration between the hero and royal familys lineage is at the very least, will be the line that can sustain the Kingdoms Government against other countries and aristocrats.
Well, only in name.
Why are you all trying to push the responsibility on me?
Its better than getting married.
I will do everything I can to negotiate with the government and the kingdom. If you dont like the title then First Consul, Guru, Generalissimo, or whatever you want.
I had enough already with regent.
The first consul is Napoleon.
Perhaps I think a Silesie Kingdom was a French model country, but the time would be different.
Burnt down by a conflagration, and drifted by the flood. We have no choice but to rebuild the capital from scratch. Its serious.
To that extent you look happy, sensei.
Sensei has such a unique imprudence.
Im neither insane nor ruthless, but a rogue ruler is good just like the reign of Nobunaga.
Because we were able to clean up, we couldnt say that the last state of the capital was of a wonderful city.
I understand it well.
The refugees are overflowing and received no help. The royal family and aristocrats are just exploiting their people. The Knights and the bureaucrats are also making it worst for the people. They just folded their arms and look.
The whole city is covered up by something like hopeless miasma, and is gloomy just to see it; felt unpleasant.
Gales coup was foolish but it is a good opportunity for the oppressed people to overthrow the government.
The true Miasma Hole of Doom may be the previous capital itself.
After everything is washed away beautifully, there is nothing in the kingdoms capital now, but the complexion of the citizen who grinds on in rehabilitation is cheerful.
The threat of the approaching monster also disappears. The party who repressed it by power was swept away by the top.
TN: The party hes referring to is the group of black dragon wyvern
Even though lots of supplies are scarce, people can live if there is hope for the future.
Theres a way for my firm to make money by bringing Oxs wood and stone and metal products from the Ye Mountain range.
When I said such a thing, I was seen in a surprised face.
Takeru-dono still wants to gain more?
Its obvious. I want to set up a branch in this new capital. It may widen the business network in the kingdoms side.
No, I was really appalled. I may be too ambitious to be a little too much, but Takeru-dono is also much more.
It would be nice if you could make money with an honest business. Its much better than aristocrats who exploit from the bottom without doing anything.
Thats good. Then the reconstruction supply for the capitals revival will be controlled by the Sawatari Commercial Firm. I will negotiate with the Kingdoms government. The national treasury will be upset because of this. Lets also repaint the capital in a splendid city with a cannon.
Its called government rigging. As for this for the security of the nation, monopoly cant be helped either.
Takeru-dono, this is also a charity project.
No, it is different.
In any case, he will not do what she wants in war and politics without permission.
I will let her at least let me expand my business in the meantime.
Scene Change
With wanting to found out more about the fatal defect that happened in the Miasma Hole of Doom event, Ria started managing it with the church support.
A nationwide warrant was issued for the advance magician.
The cleaning up of this event is endless because it is boundless.
Even if Im not involved, Lyle-sensei will be able to make sure that remedial measures are good.
Leaving the shrewd sensei like a fish that got in the water in the capital, I decided to go back to the City of Est with Louise.
When I arrive at the city, it is the same city as usual.
TN:Hes basically saying nothing has changed
What changed was that Count Donovan was promoted to a marquis.
Well I guess the Marquis Donovan will be able to increase the territory for a moment.
When I visit the Marquis residence, he still hasnt return from the capital yet.
I guess that person was the Prime Minister. I am sorry to have kept you going back to the territory.
I was relieved to go back to the office of Sawatari Commercial Firm.
Welcome back, Master!
Sharon and the slave girls are busy working.
They went back to this office as soon as the war was over.
Master, M&A advance smoothly.
TN: mergers and acquisitions
We finally started to buy company
Anyway, because the mining rights and the Ambazac Barony were rolled into the Sawatari Commercial Firm, a number of related professional guilds and company guilds have been affiRiated.Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
The commercial firm wont be around if Sharon is not the chairman. Rather, if Sharon didnt manage everything by herself, it will not reach this scale(or maybe not).
TN: Hes basically saying that the growth of the company is due to Sharons effort alone
When it comes to product distribution and corporate acquisitions, the almost white silver haired Sherry is fighting with numerical formula at the side of Sharon.
Sherry is among the second batch of slaves after Sharons batch. She has a strange background as a daughter of a gambler. When sharon taught them about business for trial, she demonstrated high mathematical understanding and market analysis ability.
We get the market price and information gathering in the firm under our control and analyze it, how to distribute goods, and which business should be purchased next. I have raised my precise proposal to Sharon, my boss.
The information they are writing on the board with chalk is no longer in a state I can understand even if I am a highschool student.
Its fun to watch when its vibrant. It has such a feeling like Seri City.
TN:No idea what/where is Seri City
Well, Sherry seems to be working hard, do you have something you want?
Master, I have such a feeling during your absence, so please check it out.
As I ask Sherry for a reward for her service, I was given a bunch of papers with numbers I dont know. I am from liberal arts course.
Well, its quite a taste. Lets drink Sherry.
Thank you very much.
How luxurious it is to have a cold drink from the refrigerator in the bath.
I cant say that real fantasy is tough anymore.
By the way Im drinking water ice coffee, Sherry is drinking fruit milk.
Of course my cup and Sherrys milk bottle are made of glass.
Mmm, after all, it is still impure.
The real bottle is transparent.
Its black history that I baked sand and failed in order to make glass. I burn weathered granite and quartz crust at high temperature and I understood soon enough that one like this bottle can be done.
Its just low in transparency, far from being a transparent bottle like in modern times.
The information might be kept secret somewhere like the Venetian glass.
Sherry, information is money. People who control the information will win the business.
I take masters word in my heart.
When I said that, Sharon who finished her work came.
Arara, youve gotten along with Sherry.
Thanks to you.
Sharon being an elder sister is much better than I expected.
You can understand by seeing the intelligence of the slave girl she is raising.
Its still early, but would you like to go to bed now?
Oh, yes. I am tired of being shaken by a carriage for a long time. Ill brush my teeth and sleep slowly today.
Ok, master, please go here.
Yes?
Even if Im not guided by Sharon, I know about my room.
Oh, there is no room for me.
Masters bedroom was changed to the room in the back of this place when the office was remodeled.
Is that so? I dont mind since I entrusted it to Sharon but the bed is awfully big.
Its about the size of a semi-double.
Such a luxurious bed is in my house.
Yes master, this was purchased you you can sleep slowly. I usually warm the bed.
Oh, I see.
No, my bed is nominal. Sharon has a hobby of not getting permission. You bought a big bed and sleep.
Is it probably good? It cannot be helped because I entrusted it to her.
The greater also serves for the lesser.
I must say that a big bed feels good. I decided to go to bed slowly.
Scene Change
Im too careless. I..
Early morning, I thought there is something soft on my bed. Sharon was sleeping sideways in cotton underwear as it is quite natural.
It is good because this development should only be expected.
The problem is, if you think there is something soft in the bed it means that I fall asleep deeply that I did not notice that it is already crowded.
I embrace Sharon with all ones might particularly, and make her a pillow. I dont regret having spent the whole night.
The knowledge of the habitual presence in battlefield. If this is the world of master swordsman Musashi Miyamoto, I can get killed while sleeping.
I am called a hero too. The number of allies increased but the number of enemies also increased.
Originally, I should be more cautious.
Sharon might not be necessarily wrong to say that I need a personal guard at bed.
However, Sharon is sleeping with a happy face. Though she doesnt seem to be useful as the guard of the bed, I permit it because it is lovely.
Oh, her ear moved twitchily.
Good morning.
By any chance, were you awake?
Shes good at sleeping, Sharon is a dog.
Dogs and cats are shallow sleeper but is a quarter beast person too?
When Commander Louise is near, I do not have to worry. When you are in the company, we will protect you, master.
Really? Youre thinking in various ways.
By the way, Louise and me came back to the City of Est yesterday together. Since she is responsible for the volunteer corps, she went to visit the base camp in Ona village and stayed.
Oh, wait a moment.
By any chance, when I peek outside the room.
Master, good morning.
Claudia was sitting with a chair in the hallway.
Fully armed with a bayonet and black dragon wyvern scale armor early in the morning. Its a small Louise.
Were you keeping an all-night watch?
I sleep by turns properly with Commander Louise so you do not have to worry.
Suzanne is sleeping in a makeshift bed next to her.
Shes sleeping with a bayonet on the right side, these guys are doing Miyamoto Musashi more firmly than me.
The combination of Suzanne and Claudia. They received a graduate knights education from Louise.
There may be a teaching same as [the book of the Olympic Games] in the chivalry of the Middle Ages.
Umm, for this..
How should this be judged? I told Sherry that I like what her doing. In the case of these girls.
When strict defense is strengthened, is it going to be a flag wherein Ill be attacked?
TN:He gave Sherry a push so hes being cautious that if he also gave a push for these two, there is a possibility that instead of being safer, hell receive an enemy attack instead
What will you do, Master? Its a result of thinking about what we can do.
Unnoticed, Sharon got up and is stuck to my back.
I feel like deriving my conclusion somehow while saying what I want to do.
But well, there is no malice, so it is not that annoying.
Claudia, you had a hard time. I will go to bed a little more so please continue.
Yes! I will protect masters quiet sleep.
The young knight apprentice stood up from the chair and smiled with a beautiful salute.
Looking at her, I slowly close the door.
Then Ill accompany to bed.
Do whatever you want.
It makes you happy so its OK.
After all there is not enough rest.
It has become troublesome to think about various clutter.
I will dive into bed for a while and sleep.
Even if Sharon is rustling next to me, even if she smells good to extent where it doesnt hinder quiet sleep. Im in this harsh environment. Maybe Im getting used to it.
