Chapter 335 - : The Negotiation, and Solving the Problem (1/2)
In a Different World with a S the Probleuess that’s finished”
In front of the entrance to the high-class brothel “Moonlight Parlor”, a bunch of suspicious looking black-clothedan inch Several dozen thin-ish golems encased in ice were besides them
Of course, none of the oleuardsht Parlor tied the unconsciousthe that, I guess
No e innocent citizens Their attire basically screa soh killing intent for me to feel it while inside the brothel Hmm, that point would make them second-rate as assassins, I suppose? Oh, wait, they’re not actually assassins; their actions are uards to torture them in order to find out who’s behind this attack Well, they probably already have an idea as to the uess
“To think you really took care of them all… Are you a member of the [Red Cats]?”
“Nope, I’m not I a the ht away, Silhouette-san said that with a bit of a du otiations between us…”
“The Zavit guy you talked about earlier?”
“That’s right Zavit Grant The round businesses of [Papillon]”
Just as I thought Co to kill Silhouette-san who’s a thorn in his side… No, judging froave out, he probably wanted to threaten her Silhouette-san is a beauty after all It’d be a sha, I bet
Well, with this, I can have the talk I wanted with the other side as promised When I returned to the hall I was in earlier, for some reason it was full of people; all of them turned their eyes towards me as I walked in
“Fu, ee!?”
I solidified on the spot upon seeing the hall before me There were men there as well, but more than half of them omen, and almost all of them were half-naked
I could see all of their underwear through their see-throughbras Is it that!? Don’t tell me they were in the !?
“A, aren’t you?”
“Thank you for saving the shop! You saved us!”
“Ufufu, how about I spend a night with you as thanks? I’ll keep you coht”
“Ah, not fair! I was ai for him as well!”
“A, no, I’m—Business! I have so jostled by the group of woain by the hands that stretched out fro ontosoft is being pushed against ot kissed on the cheek!? (Note: ht, leave it at that you girls That kid and I have a talk to conduct All of you, go back to your rooms”
When Silhouette-san clapped her hands with a pan pan sound, the onee-sans, s like “Tsk” and “The Boss alone, not fair…”, returned to their roouess
Ah, I’ht? See… Perhaps you’re not very fas?”
“… I’ll leave that to your i htly and looking like she saw through me completely, I tried to calm down my flushed body Ahh, that surprised me… It’s as she said, that was a bit toothe aard hest floor of the brothel I was guided to a luxurious-looking rooe doors; seems like this place is her private chambers It looks alh- class furniture and other daily tools Not even the palace back in Brunhild is this luxurious
As I sat down on the sofa after being invited to take a seat, I looked up to see a large round skylight installed on the roof and the full lass
Next to me who sat on the sofa, there’s a black cat who’s curled up into a ball and sleeping away soundly, as if I’m not even there Is it Silhouette-san’s pet cat?
“Is fruit juice fine? Or some alcohol?”
“Fruit juice, please”
Silhouette-san brought so down across frone-like drink is slowly fizzing away inside a glass
“So, what may this talk of yours be? Actually, before that I don’t think I’ve heard your name yet?”
“Ah, I’ht now… I’uess”
“A traveller, eh? Well, that’s fine For now, let’s listen to your story”
I then conveyed the key points of oldenall over the world, the fact that I have a method to detect their appearances beforehand, and that I want her and her organization to help olden monsters, huh It’s true that recently there have been witness reports of those things in all kinds of places There was a country that lost an entire village to theoleate a separate group It’s still hard to believe that they’re invaders froh…”
“You sound pretty informed”
“Naturally I’ activities conducted by [Papillon], you know? I receive reports of things before anyone else do From movements made by countries, all the way down to the fauess I should say, as expected of [Papillon]’s surface group representative It’s not just li as it’s not soe, any settlement would have an inn or a brothel, or perhaps both
And if anization mix themselves into the staff, or perhaps if the shop itself is run by the organization, it would be exceedingly easy to gather information from all over the world and pass thele city in this world has [Papillon] influence in it, but still their activity range ain fro for the appearance of the variants—the golden monsters—means you can evacuate that uaranteed that they would appear near a town every tiood deal for ht that’s the case as I said my reply
Still, when the variant attacks become more frequent and severe, that should becoh for that to happen
Now then, ould she gain from this, huh In this case it’s that, isn’t it? The other side having so a bit too, for so she wantselse…
“So, I’ll go and do souy you h?”
“Mm, I like smart children like you The talk’s faster that way”
While aon her face, Silhouette-san crossed her legs The beautiful legs that can be seen through the slits of the cheongsam-like dress is bad for my eyes…
“Now that I think about it, could you perhaps be involved in the war between Pridom and Trihalan God-Empire the other day?”
Ooh, she even has that kind of information, eh Well, there was a bunch of eyewitnesses at the abduction scene, so I guess it can’t be helped
Since it’s not as if I need to hide it, I told her how I had decided to lend dom, kidnapped Trihalan’s second prince (well, it’s actually a princess), then captured their senate chairman Also, how I plan to have the two countries cooperate with ic… I’ Then, if I ask you to kidnap Zavit and bring him to me, could you do it?”
“It’s not like I can’t, but ould you do with hi him here? Kill him and then you become leader of [Papillon]?”
If Silhouette-san wants to take over the underground section like assassination and thievery as well, then I’ll have to reconsidera relationshi+p with her
Papillon isn’t a roup like the chivalrous thieves Red Cats I wouldn’t ask for theht citizens, but I’d like to be spared fro those kinds of activities
Perhaps having sensed the change in my expression, Silhouette-san leaned back into the sofa and waved her hands while laughing bitterly
“Me, the leader of [Papillon]? Don’t make jokes like that You know, I actually want to sever ties entirely with the [Papillon] of the other side To be honest, if they had never ainst us, I would have left them alone and carried on with ressed to this stage is because that greedy idiot Zavit tried to get his hands on my businesses as well”
“So you want to focus on just theof inns and brothels?”
“No Infor intelligence services in the future I have no intentions to use that to threaten or rob others, however Let’s see,the evil deeds of some dishonest merchants or corrupt nobles?”
I see It’s not like she’s washi+ng her hands completely froe They’ll becoroup similar to Nia and the others froh to roup?”
“Well, that’s good Do you have any good ideas, Mr o the simple way and curse them…”
“… That went deep into suspicious territory all of a sudden What do you mean ‘curse’…”
Silhouette-san furrowed her brows slightly Well, I understand how she feels It’s possible using ic under the darkness attribute to force a curse onto the target whichto us I think this should be the simplest and es to a different person it would becouy called Zavit is at?”
“You don’t even need to search He’s right here in this Cantarre His residence is in the northern sector, within the tallest tower in the city”
When Silhouette-san stood up and pulled open one of the curtains on the wall, there in the distance stood a tall tower shi+ning brightly in the night
I already saw that once when I first cauess I’
The shape of the tower re Ryounkaku, the twelve-story tower that existed in Asakusa during the Meiji and the Taisho eras I’ve seen pictures of it in history textbooks Well, I’audily in the past
Still, to think he was this close…
