127 Trouble 3

All right, let’s end this farce, I’m going to chew these guys out, so…

[First of all, I won’t trade with someone who betrays their fellow colleagues. I don’t know when I’ll get betrayed by him…] Kaoru

[Wha!?] Elekdir

The startled Elekdir-san widely opened his eyes and three merchants have wide smiles as if they had seen it coming.

Next……。

[And, even though you are all merchants, you resorted to violence rather than dealing with it using words, so you are kind of… I’m just a little girl, so you don’t have use violence to force yourselves in making a lucrative contract with me.……] Kaoru

[Wha……] Manticore shop-san

I turned to the [Manticore shop]-san who grabbed the collar of Elekdir-san earlier and told him so. Just like the first merchant, he widely opened his eyes. He was lost for words he couldn’t call himself [Manticore shop] anymore…

I wonder why he’s so surprised.

Perhaps he might have thought that a powerless woman would accept the transaction with peace of mind by showing how he tries to suppress his peers with violence in front of the person who wants to establish a new transaction.

<And, it’s all your fault, [Manticore shop]-san> was the message in the gaze of Elekdir-san who is emitting an intense murderous aura. While the other two have a smile on their faces.

Okay, then…

[Now, who should I trade with?] Kaoru

Gi~n!!

Umumu, such fighting spirit is coming out from the two people…

Now then……

[Something is bad in the air, it’s kinda scary… Apparently, it’s not like we can talk about trading right now, so can you put up with it today? You should talk about it and resolve it, also if you could come one at a time…] Kaoru

After the merchants looked at each other, it seemed that they decided to withdraw, since the situation would not be improved and they might only cause trouble.

[Then, we’ll be visiting again tomorrow…] Merchants

And then the merchants stood up.

No, you don’t have to come anymore.

Well, at any rate, these guys were forgiven for today.

They’ll be coming back tomorrow anyway, but maybe at that time, they’ll be alone. Monopolizing the right of ownership means that the other three can’t accept it, so there most likely to be a representative for the transactions and distributions of the products to the other three.

But what kind of product do you intend to purchase? A product that you want to purchase in a local city like this and pay the transportation costs and escort fees to carry it to the royal capital?

No, I’m not saying I’m an <angel>, and I’m not even selling potions. Why do they think that I’ll sell something to other merchants that I don’t sell at my own store in the first place?

Anyway, I would recommend the representative of the merchants the cookies I baked, the animal wood carvings made by Emile, and the bamboo crafts made by Bell. This is the best bargain at our store. It’s cheap because the material cost is low.

Francette also tried crafting, but.

……Yeah, Francette should concentrate on training her sword.

[Excuse me!] ??

The next day, one of yesterday’s merchants came over before the morning hours of the store ends. Of the two people who did not participate in <grabbing the collar competition>, the one who’s store is not called [Kakuusagi Horn Rabbit]. Surely, I didn’t hear the name of the store yesterday.

[I am Raton from the <Solcus Trading Company>.] Raton

Un, so this is the person in charge of negotiations

Well, they thought that I’d avoid and run away from violent people, so there would have only two options.

[Please head to the second floor.] Kaoru

I quickly put a <closed> sign on the entrance door, locked it, and guided him to the second floor.

This time too, only Francette is in the room. Francette can’t stand the thought of me meeting other people alone. She doesn’t know what will happen and when will it happen.

Well, that’s right, that’s just how she is.

[…So in the end, what is the item that you want to buy at this store?…] Kaoru

[Of course, the potion! That legendary potion sold in the Balmoa Kingdom!] Raton

As expected… But.

[Oh, a liquid medicine potion. Right now, there are two kinds of liquid medicine we have, one for the throat and one for wounds. Both are in small bottles and costs one silver coin each…] Kaoru

[Eh, the magical medicine that has the miraculous effect of being protected by the goddess…] Raton

[No, it’s just an ordinary medicine. It has the same effect as buying it at the pharmacist and the price is the same. Maybe the price is a bit cheaper if you bought it at the pharmacist in the royal capital, but I think it’s a good item.] Kaoru

[…………] Raton

Oya, what’s the matter?

[A, ano, what about the potion that the angel was selling in the Balmoa Kingdom?…] Raton

When I tried to play dumb, Raton-san quickly asked the question without any signs of giving up.

[You keep asking about the <angel> but what does it mean in the first place? And what is the reason why you stick so much to such a small store?…] Kaoru

[Eh? No, no, there is no need to hide it. We are all aware of this… I am fully aware that you were the angel in the Balmoa Kingdom, also you saved the eldest son of Baron Dorivel and gave your blessings to the Reifel family. Moreover, that appearance, That black hair, and black eyes are the best proof that you are the <angel>…] Raton

All right! It’s here! It’s here!

[Eh? I’m not an <angel>, you know? I swear it in the name of the goddess.] Kaoru

[Eh?] Raton

The merchant has a blank face.

Well yeah, he’ll be surprised if the angel vows in the name of the goddess that she is not an angel, even though they were fully convinced that she was the angel of the goddess.

Though I’ve been denying it ever since I got reincarnated in this world. I’m not an angel! Yet no matter how much I deny it, there will always be someone who will call me as such, so I gave up and I’ve reluctantly stopped denying it recently, but I have never called myself an angel. So I’m not lying.

And for the finisher…

[Also, I’m not black-haired and black-eyed. My eyes maybe a little dark, but they’re brown. Look, look at it carefully.] Kaoru

When I said that, he approached my face. The merchant opened his eyes and looked straight into my eyes.

[…It’s true… It’s not black, but dark-brown…] Raton

The merchant was stunned.

Here’s more.

[And my hair…] Kaoru

I grabbed my hair and pulled the wig.

[As you can see, this is an artificial hair or a kind of wig, it’s a fashion thing. My real hair is brown, look…] Kaoru

Ah, he’s petrified.
