Chapter 46: Partner
There are only two months left until miladys graduation party.
The dress milady will be wearing is also being made with a mature design. In consideration of miladys deadly weapon and her nice proportions.
Nevertheless, people are talking about the engagement between His Highness the Crown Prince Yuri and Clarice, the Saint of Light.
After all, as the next king, Mr. Yuris ability is certain, but when it comes to the engagement, its also a relief.
On the streets, husbands who are usually restricted by their wives are clinking their ale mugs as if they found an excuse to drink. Bars and cafeterias are selling the same menu as usual, but they are calling it engagement set meals and selling it at 20% more.
you again. Hey, Maid.
Its been a while, shopkeeper. Ive come today to buy butter, honey, syrup, and white sugar.
Its been two weeks since Ive seen . Are you running a coffee shop at your place? It is not the amount of butter and honey Id consume in a private residence.
Its a maidens best-kept secret.
Today we visited that shop owners store near the salt dungeon.
Its a good shop that gives you various discounts and various extras, even though they complain about it.
Now the owner of the store has changed a lot again.
The owner of the shop where I just got to know him had lowered the protective power of his scalp to the lowest rank.
So I gave him my homemade special dried seaweed, and for some reason, the seaweed mimicking hair replenished the defensive strength.
It should have stopped there, but the shopkeeper meet the merciless head maid.
After being parasitized by soul-dynamite afro-shaped seaweed. I deciding that it would return to the ocean in a few years if it continued to grow. So I cut the nucleus of the parasitic seaweed and replaced it with a haircut with a small floating ring covered with a shampoo hat.
Now, the parasitic seaweed, which had lost its nucleus, was no longer encroaching on his scalp, but as a replacement, it had eroded into his body and his chest hair was mossy.
The owner was happy and good with all sorts of increased defenses.
Well, I feel like the number of female customers has been decreasing lately, so Im grateful for you maid.
Thats very nice of you, sir.
A ladys favorite, the Lords engagement present, rose-scented lotion for only three pieces of silver.
Thats very good of you. Can I see the honey from your rose garden?
Maid.
Yes, sir?
Buy it. Im did try to make it, but its not selling at all because of the lack of female customers.
Three silver coins are worth about 30,000 yen in Japanese yen (nearly 300 Usd).
It is in a 150ml glass bottle, and the content is rose oil dripped into water.
I wont say that it is not effective, but in terms of cost, I would say that it is about one small silver coin per bottle.
How much is left?
99 bottles.
As you might guess, he made a hundred bottles and used one himself to test it out.
Then Ill buy honey from the rose garden and your rum, and my usual white sugar and butter and you can add three bottles of that lotion as a bonus.
Nah, jeez, maid, if youre messing around too much
Would you like me to give you a hint? If you think about it, youll attract more female customers if you give them a bottle for every silver coin they spent, rather than selling this bottle.
Yeah, right ?
I wrote a special note and held it up in the store, and the eyes of the extraordinarily perceptive housewives were glittering.
The main problem is the appearance of the sensational shopkeeper, but let me be moderately intimidating and scatter the mossy chest all over.
.
Hey, maid, can I help you?
No, its no problem.
After scattering it all over his body, he managed to look very warm and reminiscent of the original. The shopkeeper moved on to the next stage of the seaweed transformation.
As such, I finished my shopping without any problems and was about to hurry back to my beloved lady, but on the way there, I felt some bad vibes.
But it wasnt directed at me. There was no murderous intent. But as I followed the violent atmosphere that seemed to ooze out, there was a familiar face there.
Huh? Miss Kamishiro?
Hello.
Mr. Sei, Mr. Hao, hello sirs.
The two people who walked from the other side of the shopping street were junior high school students summoned from Earth.
Mr. Sei is the same as usual. He is cheerful and good-natured, but because of that, he is unable to read the atmosphere.
Mr. Hao is also shy as usual. He doesnt seem to be good at conversing with the opposite sex.
Are you shopping, Miss Kamishiro?
Yes, I was just on my way home, sir. Where were you two headed?
Hmmm Well, its not a real deal, but would you be okay with that, Hao? Can I tell Miss Kamishiro?
Right. OK. But lets move on for a minute.
Its annoying to stand in the middle of the street and talk about it. The three of us leave the street and go out to the back streets.
We, you know, officially became [candidate partners] of His Highness Joel. We was approached about it for a long time. Were on our way to reply now.
Im a little scared of girls
Oh I see.
Most of the boys had found a partner, and half of the women had been sent to the hospital or become shut in for some reason. There was a fierce recruiting battle among the female students of the academy over the two remaining beautiful boys.
Although they are noblewomen, few women are as modest as milady. Because the noblewomen use orders, large amounts of bribes, and dragging, the two of them began to feel threatened by the rather awful situation. Mr. Joel, who hadnt yet decided on a partner, gathered them together and put an end to the quarrel by making them [candidate partners].
If they hadnt decided on a partner, the two of them would be in the custody of the state, so it doesnt seem to be a problem to make them partners at the same time.
Youll be able to find out more about this by visiting . I am enjoying books like that.
Its not like that, okay?
It seems to be different.
For that matter, Miss Kamishiro, what about your partner?'
Huh? I have no one but milady.
Oh, sorry, I didnt mean to imply that. I mean Miss Sharon will have a male partner escorting her to the graduation party too, right?
Is that what you mean?
So, I wonder what Miss Kamishiro is going to do about it
There was an event like that.
Im miladys maid, so I will be working behind the scenes at her side.
Um, Miss Kamishiro. Miss Sharon is coming with whom?
Mr. Hao, who has been silent, suddenly opens his mouth.
Oh, my goodness, your face is red. Have you caught a cold?
Milady is a potential fiance of Joels, so its up to her. I suppose shell have to make up her mind soon.
Check to see.
By the way, we dont have a partner for the party either, so keep that in mind.
Im sorry, sir.
Then Mr. Sei reminded me to remember it over and over again, and finally, Mr. Hao pulled him away. Im not an amnesiac either, so I wont forget it easily without repeating it.
Now
Come out. Im aware of you.
Ho-ho
At my words, three men emerge from the back alley.
How did you realize we were chasing those kids earlier? Id say get out of here before you get hurt.
That maid is very thorough. Be careful.
Well get this over with as soon as possible. Our client has a bad temper.
It looks like you got a request from some young lady. I didnt know you were after them, but Im afraid theyre going to cringe if I tell them that.
From the looks of it, theyre more than just terrific stalkers they are experts in the rough stuff. Not to underestimated one young maid, they surround me, trying to handle the situation precisely.
Its our job too. I dont like it, but dont hold a grudge.
Yes, nice shot.
My spiky cudgel had hit their kryptonite just right.
Could it be that they were trying to abduct Mr. Sei and Mr. Hao? What made them think I would stop them when I was too busy?
Be that as it may.
Come out. Im aware of you.
The same lines, in the same direction.
At my words, this time one person comes out of the back alley. No intent to kill. But there was a hint of a fighting spirit.
That person is
Good to see you, Mr. Elias. Are you going for a walk?
When I greeted him cheerfully, Mr. Elias frowned slightly and gently drew his sword and released it, pointing it towards me.
