Chapter 166: 167

Chapter 167: Busy Days After the Disturbance

The family disturbances of the Marquis de Vandyne’s family finally came to an end.

Rumors about this spread out of nowhere during the day, and there were some who had evil thoughts about the series of events, but that stopped short of the surface when it was announced that the royal family had become the guardians of Aeris, who was in the middle of the whirlwind of events.

The guardian who is the queen is now the most favored by the king and is at the peak of her popularity.

They don’t want to make an enemy of her.

As for the disposition of the Marchioness, she was imprisoned in the tower and testified about her past misdeeds, but one morning she was found dead in the cold.

She was poisoned.

Apparently, it was the work of someone who did not want any more testimonies about the assassination guild.

As a side note, the Marquise’s baby was taken in by the Countess of the Marquise’s family.

Thanks to this, Aeris could return to the Vandyne family without any more danger to herself.

There were no more aristocrats who would openly and blatantly propose an engagement.

The marriage would not proceed without the guardian’s approval.

The nobles, who had been hinting at marriage as a condition for cooperating with the visitation, acted as if such a thing had never happened.

As one would expect, to the royal family, the guardians, they would not openly say that they wanted their sons to succeed the Marquis de Vandyne’s family.

Well, the royal family would probably come up with an arranged marriage, but for the Vandyne family, which is a leading figure in the neutralist faction, they would not arrange a marriage with a strange partner in order to maintain balance among the factions of the country.

I was truly relieved to have Aeris back where she belonged.

I and Aeris had spent a short time together, but she’s an important friend.

Now that I think about it, Aeris’ initial insistence on me being the youngest may have been a desperate attempt to find a place for herself, a value for her existence.

And for a short while, I would like to think that “Black Golden Wings” became that place, or rather, had become it.

Besides getting this family business settled, Tauro had one other thing he wanted to do for Aeris.

That was to go with Aeris to the dungeon where her father was believed to have died and offer flowers.

It would just be a comforting thought, but it would give Aeris some closure, wouldn’t it?

The dungeon was under such tight control that it would be difficult to enter, let alone get close to it, but fortunately, we could get in and out of the dungeon by asking Sharga, the person in charge of the dungeon investigation whom we had met earlier.

Also, I had to thank him for introducing me to Count Conowen.

Yes! Shall I give him one of the special reversi boards I couldn’t give him  last time as a souvenir?

I don’t know if I should say so myself, but I’m sure he’ll be glad to have the special discs that I make which are now said to be the phantom Giro-Sugar works and fetch high prices at auctions, and are very hard to find.

Tauro immediately contacted the Garfish Trading Company to make an appointment to see Sharga.

Aeris is busy meeting with the royal family and so on for the next few days, so we are separated.

Tauro, a commoner from a quaint farm family, could not meet other royal family members in an official setting, as it was informal and special for him to meet Prince Frue. (TN: Changed “Prince Flue” to “Prince Frue”

So Aeris was reluctant, but he did not accompany her.

So while we’re at it, let’s get permission to go to the dungeon.

I also have other business meetings with the Garfish Trading Company.

Tauro had a lot to do in the capital.

“—I understand, I will contact Mr. Sharga immediately and ask him to make time for me. I made prototypes of the tents, rain gear, and carriage covers that Tauro-dono came up with using “non-wetting cloth,” and held an exhibition to hear how well they were received by the people concerned, but I received a large order for them. So I thought I would talk to Tauro-dono about it.”

Mardai, the representative of the Garfish Trading Company, gave Tauro an explanation and a report.

“A large order? How big is it? You don’t mean a hundred or two hundred, do you?”

“The first order was for a thousand rain gears, this from the Kingsguard. The Royal Guard will be ordering tents and rain gear as well.”

“A thousand? And from the knights, too?”

“Compared to the ones made of monster skins, these are lightweight, inexpensive, and dry quickly because they repel water.  The money is also paid by the government, so they pay well. They are our best customers!”

“But that means we won’t be able to keep up with production…….”

“We are already building additional factories and recruiting craftsmen. I believe we can start mass production next week.”

Mardai, the representative of the Garfish Trading Company, was as efficient as ever.

He must have made preparations as soon as he had a good feeling about the project, and he acted quickly.

“The magic tool “Lantern” will be available for sale the week after next. As Tauro-dono suggested, we will display them in the store to attract the attention of passersby. We have also stocked up on a large quantity of the scrap magic stone for this from the Adventurers’ Guild.”

Although there is a possibility that the lanterns could be stolen from the storefront, we have a well-spoken clerk standing in front of the storefront to explain to passersby the greatness of the lanterns.

Yes, this is the same kind of TV shopping demonstration and sales that was in my previous life.

Here, it’s a technique that peddlers do on the street, but no one does it in their own storefronts.

If it works, it will become a topic of conversation, and that was Tauro’s goal.
