Chapter 139

c139: Before the Storm

「It’s been a while hasn’t it, Beltran-sama」

I straightened out my appearance and, went to the dandy eyepatch-san slave merchant’s place

He also engenders quite the austere look, in his oith his rown out beard

Passing through the reception roo while drinking black tea

「Well I’ll be ojousama, it feels like I’ve seen the leaves turn a thousand ti as I wonder, when next we’ll be able to meet」

「Maa? Surely a personage of Beltran-sa out of it even if he accoirl like me?」

「Should I assume there has not been an occasion for ojousama to look at herself in a mirror? It would require quite the effort for the men of this world to maintain their reason in front of ojousama you know」

「Fufu, using the fact that you have a good tongue as always? I’m reassured」

「What, surely a businessh when the world becomes stormy」

For the nonce, I did a handshake with the eyepatch ossan who’s celebrating our reunion

Though even the level of a hug would be fine wouldn’t it～

「Is your business going smoothly?」

「With the guys called combat specialists I supposeBattle slaves sell like they fly out」

「Since Beltran-sahtful thing」

「Fu, it’s a strange feeling e like ojousama in this trade, isn’t it」

Because it’s slave trading isn’t it

Ma, since I also don’t intend to throw my own principles around?

And since, I met Ilya because of this company?

I fleetingly, turnedpositioned behind me

There’s the same poker face as always

「Surely you don’t want to hear, so of the world? I also don’t want to become that much of an idiotFurthermore, since this child truly has been useful hasn’t she? I intend to understand supply and demand」

I didn’t want to choose words like, been useful, but I suppose this is the place to protect oshujin-sama

「Se……if ojousama were no one at all, this would be the place to coax you into being ardless of howyou, Fairy of Silver Lightning-dono」

Fairy of Silver Lightning iss it

Should I suppose, I’ve become someone like Till did?

「I still, haven’t become anyone you knowSurely that isn’t li for that」

「Oya? Indirectly, should I suppose it would be acceptable to take that to say you’ll become my wife?」

I trieda deliberately flowery smile even for me

「I uidance」

「Ojousama, believes in God then?」

「I’m an atheist, Beltran-sama」

「Fuhahahaa! A truly ae」

The fact that I’m here in this form is due to God-sama’s mischief so, I woudn’t not say I was hidden by God but……

But, however far ht path such that it’s fine even if I’m embraced by a man……?

It’s too scary so, I feel I could even swear to God that that alone will not be though……

It does feel that way doesn’t it?

「Then Beltran-sama, would it be fine even if I went ahead and stated ain today?」

「Fu, listening to ojousama’s selfishness is my current entertainment」

「Fufu, then Ilya?」

「Yes, my, lady」

I call out to her and, Ilya offered out parchment

There is of course paper, in this world but, apparently they use parchment to write down important documents

Eyepatch-san quickly ran his eye over it and, mumbled a fuumu

「Quite the fortune isn’t itAs expected of ojousama」

He entered a business face with no openings

As expected

He’shis eye quickly to each word and each phrase without overlooking a thing

「How is it? Could I have

your thoughts?」

「You want to buy, my company?」

「Eei」

「It is not such a case that this coThis is not a ive a reply」

「Every moment is important for thisI want to request this of you, to include the role of convincing the people around you, Beltran-sama」

「Being valued this highly by ojousama, pushes me to the limits of embarrassment but……」

Ton ton, his finger is rhyth his desk

I suppose this is that he’s thinking about bewildering aains in his head

Should I make one more push～

「Beltran-sa here to mean that I want to say I want to ad that the business fundamentally proceeds under the people of the company’s advice and council」

I’ht from his eye

「Of course, there’s no probleh? There is no problem there」

Since you won’t be trusted if you only say things that are convenient to yourself will you

Since it’s natural to have a bite of the profit, I should say this

「What I want to request froistics……and, further behind that, da～rk stuffI a I want to have you to take that on and cooperate with us」

「Fumu, certainly we are not inadept in any of those fields but」

The maid-sans of my house also have no aspect of their ability to excuse, they’re wonderful children who aren’t picky in their work but, since the personnel is unavoidably limited you see

It necessary to consider the future, once we overcome this battle

It’s a necessary evil

「Tothe just path feels admirableBut, she’s cruel isn’t she? The Goddess-sama of fate」

「I see, rather than a Goddess of ill nature, surely it’s more constructive to bet on the Goddess before your eyesYou truly are a deeply interesting personage」

「Fufu, has Beltran-saht a disease or such where you’ll die if you don’t sweet talk h」

「That is goodHowever God is?」

「I don’t believe in one」

I give ht smile

Eyepatch-san also, gives a harsh smile

U～n, he’s not kurozukume, the atmosphere of a capable man drifts around him

Maa I, don’t dislike kurozukume do I

That aspect where he seems unreliable, sort of can’t be left alone can it

Since he’s not a bad guy?

「I suppose it’s fineI really don’t want to be disliked by ojousama after all」

「It’s fine then?」

「I feel that it’s the correct decision, when I see that smile」

「Thank you verylike e」

「An exceptional condition isn’t thatIf you say you won’t particularly speak up regarding the direction of ained a reassuring sponsorIf that is ojousaains for this company」

To say it in loss and gain this will bring considerable expenses but, since if I look at the long run the benefits are also large for this side aren’t they

「Then, I’ht be necessary for the ti? This is before the official contract so, I wouldn’t mind if you were to take this and accept it as a present froent business and, you may observe the capabilities of my company」

「Maa, that is extreIn that case to start with――I shall ask that you istics」

◇■◇■◇

With this, my preparations are complete

No, I sense that the preparations are lacking no matter how much I do

But if the bare minimum necessities are complete, what comes next from here

here is the problem of whether to resolve this or what have you

I’ up into the sky where the sun is still high

The sky is blue, today as well nothing disturbs great sun-sama

Only the wheels of humanity, are disturbed

「I, love rewarding good and punishi+ng evil」

「Hai, I am well aware, of ojousama’s disposition」

I proffer conversation, without looking at the Ilya beside me

The sense of security fro at my side for me

「I feel that the co such a thing as, I won’t let a single soldier escape so……Even so if there’s no choice but to do that……」

I’ it

「Surely, I’ll be covered in a lot of blood, won’t I……」

「Surely it will bring happiness if ojousa to Valhalla」

If that is Ilya’s impression, then from the enemy-san’s point of viee’d be simple massacrers wouuldn’t we

「It is hu the power called wordsHowever, there are often occasions where that cannot be realizedAt those tih which to reason about such a thing as good and evilWhat there is is the winner and loser, to live or die, there’s only that」

There is nothing of the sort to be thought of at length, while i that Ilya has the same clear face as always

「I thought I ht be hell after tomorrow」

「It is alrightThe path ojousama follows is, my pathLet me show even the fires of hell be received with this body」

「It’s hot you know～, probablyEnough to die」

「Fufu, after death, I wonder what becoh to die fro matter」

The willpower of an unwavering girl is incredible

In Ilya’s case, were I to say it with a smile, she seems like she really would take on even hellfire without raising a single groan

But well, if Ilya comes with me, it feels like anywhere would be home doesn’t it

「By the way ojousama, do you not believe in God-sama?」

「Believing, not believing」

「You have a flexible faith don’t you」

「I believe in myself」

「Then, I will also join the ojousama faith」

「It seeroup doesn’t it」

「It’s already becoroup of that sort」

At what point, did I becoion……

「I’ a bit of a detour」

「Hai, ojousama」

Such a thing as wanting to burn the city surroundings into o directly back so, it becas outside the castle walls

In the enerated the most

Since it’s a situation where the flow of goods has stopped, I’

So back to that fried corn

「……」
