Chapter 101: 101 Art. 101. Entry Fee

"You'll have to pay the dragon's entry fee.

It came out of nowhere.

An emissary from the Kingdom of Tendo's two neighbors, the Seaga Kingdom, appeared in the city of Dexi and demanded that the Dragon Carriage of Lasse pay an entry fee to enter their country.

"I'm sorry, but Commander Frieda, Commander of the Knights of the Kingdom of Tendo, is in charge of such talks.

Lamia was suddenly asked for an entry fee at the counter, but she didn't panic and didn't say the name of Commander Frida.

It's because in previous negotiations with Merck, he was supposed to help you in political matters.

But it was a concession he found deeply difficult to accept.

We've already talked about it. You just pay the entry fee.

But the messenger of the Seger State is unapproachable.

Please wait while I check with the Order.

But at Lamia's words, the messenger of the Seger State raises his eyebrows.

"Are you bringing shame to my country?

"Shame ......?

Yes. The talks between my country and the Kingdom of Tend have already been concluded. To ask me if this is true is to criticize me for being wrong about what the Seger Nation says.

Although it's a crazy story, the emissary of the Seger State is not wrong in a way.

As a person working in an organization, it's natural to get confirmation when money is involved.

But when a nobleman's face, and moreover the face of the state, is involved, it's a complicated matter.

The messenger of the Seger State says, are you real to a great nobleman from another country?　It's like asking, "What do you think?

It's the right thing to do, but it would definitely make the other nobleman feel uncomfortable.

Frankly speaking, it was nothing but a disaster for the person in charge, but it was the power of the aristocracy to push it through.

And that's why there are professions that specialize in learning the faces and coats of arms of the aristocracy.

You'll be able to get a good deal more than you would like, but you'll have to be careful not to get into any trouble.

But the man claiming to be an emissary of the Seaga Kingdom has refused to present such identification.

(It's suspicious by all accounts.)

Lamia at the counter wasn't the only one who thought so.

The dryads, who were working on other business nearby, were also looking at the messenger suspiciously, and the customer merchants in the vicinity were also feeling suspicious of the messenger's behavior.

(It's true that you can sense the aristocratic arrogance in this person.

Lamia is puzzled by what's going on.

But I can't pay the entry fee without permission, much less ask how much it is.

(If you ask for the amount, it could be said that you are willing to pay it.

Working for Lasse, Lamia has become accustomed to the ways of the humans.

Well, he doesn't want to get too used to it.

"I'm sorry, but I can't pay you without the Lord's permission.

I'll try to stall for time with a bland response, Lamia.

Lasse or Letty should come back if it takes time.

Then we'll leave the rest to them.

So the monster of the king of beasts is a Deku boy who can't do anything without his master's orders. He is after all a beast that speaks human language.

The messenger provokes Lamia by spitting direct insults at her.

But this is not the kind of provocation Lamia needs.

(Provocations of this magnitude are quite common.)

There are certain people who insult demons who follow demon handlers.

Especially those who are of the privileged class, such as the nobility.

From Lamia's point of view, the aristocrats, who are experts in all kinds of grumbling, are much more annoying than the experts in all kinds of grumbling, so they don't need to deal with this level of grumbling.

It's the only thing that can handle this level of monsters, the rumored monster master's two names are also overrated. It's like he can't even tame a single beast, let alone a thousand.

(You're a target of an attack if you get the chance)

However, I will not tolerate insults to the Lord.

And so, while Lamia was lazily stalling, the door of the office opened to reveal the long-awaited figure.

I'm home!

The Lord of Lamia, Lasse Theimer himself.

Next to him was Letty, the leader of the town branch of the Knights of the Kingdom of Tendo, Dexxi.

But there is still only one member, the leader.

''Hm?　What is this air?

Sensing the subtle atmosphere in the store, Lasse nodded his head.

"Welcome home, Lasse-sama.

As Lamia greets Lasse, an emissary of the Seger State heads towards Lasse.

It's probably because he decides there's no point in talking about Lamia with nails in a bran.

"You're Lasse Tamer?

The messenger of the Seger State said to Lasse without giving his name.

"You have trespassed into our territory many times without permission. Therefore, we demand 2,000 gold pieces as a fine.

The merchants are astonished at the absurd amount of money.

2000 gold coins?

It's a mess.

No wonder the merchants are surprised.

Normally, the fee for entering the country is a little different, but it's only about a silver coin.

But even so, there's no need to pay for the gold, even though the number of people and the type of goods carried in will be reduced by a few more silver coins.

You trespassed into our country without permission. This is the equivalent of breaking the barrier. Moreover, carrying so many people and goods is group smuggling. But since it's virtually impossible to arrest all these people individually and make them pay their fines, we'll make you, the mastermind of the smuggling, pay them all together!

The statement of the emissary of the Seger nation was extremely forceful.

It was already tacitly accepted that the act of a Lasse's dragon flying over the skies of another nation would not be penalized on the grounds that the skies were borderless.

So much so that every nation understood the benefits of fast and safe flight by Lasse's dragons.

The Seger emissary's words were an obstacle to the unofficial use of the Lasse by such countries.

What the hell were they thinking, Lamia and the dryads were unable to gauge the Seger State's intentions.

Wait. The matter of the Lasse Tamer is now in the hands of our Order of the Tendo.

It's Letty who leans in.

Letty tries to get in between Lasse and the messenger, and tries to represent herself in the negotiations.

But the Seger envoy shakes his head.

"There's no need. We've already discussed it between us. All that's left is to make the man pay.

"It can't be. The problem with Lasse can be communicated to me. I can't make a treaty that doesn't involve me!

Letty denies that it was impossible, but the messenger of the Seger State was unapproachable.

That's your problem. If you interfere with my work any longer, my country will not remain silent.

A messenger who threatens implicitly to start a war because of you if you interfere any longer.

d*mn!

Letty, who cannot act carelessly because she belongs to the state, is entangled in the remarks of the messenger of the Seger State.

I see you finally understand. I'm sorry, the country's shore is so slow on the uptake.

The messenger turns to Lasse, only remembering to say a quick snide remark.

"Now, if you don't want to be caught as a criminal, you'll have to pay the entry fee.

The messenger of the Seaga Nation, smiling triumphantly.

In contrast, Lamia and her followers and Letty could only watch with bated breath to see how Lasse would handle it.

I see. We'll pay your entry fee!

What's more, Lasse has swallowed the messenger's argument in full.

「「「「 eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee? 」」」」

At this, not only Lamia and her friends, but also the guests around them are surprised.

"Well, that's pretty straightforward. Then let's get paid right away.

Lasse shook his head at the messenger who held out his hand.

Two thousand gold coins is a considerable amount of money. I can't give you that much money right away. The money we have in the store isn't enough and there's no way we can get the money in the bank in this town. I have to go to the bank in King's Landing.

Lasse was right.

After all, 2,000 gold coins is a considerable amount of money.

There's also the simple problem of storage.

Even for a great merchant, this was not an amount of money that could be immediately available.

"So I will need to go to King's Landing for the money.

"Hmm, you're going to stall for time by saying that, aren't you?　It's not going to happen!

But Lasse again shook his head and denied it.

No, no, we don't need to stall. After all, we have dragons. It's just a hop to King's Landing.

I see. So that's why you want me to wait until you get the money from King's Landing. Fine. But I will charge you an extra 10 percent per day. I'll pay you 10 percent more a day.

Another improbable rant.

It was enough to make me question the emissary's common sense.

"You have got to be kidding me!

Letty can no longer stand it and goes to put her hand on the sword at her waist, but Lasse stops her.

"It's okay Letty,

Lasse turns to the messenger and smiles at him.

"Don't worry, sir. Bring the messenger with you to King's Landing and we'll have the money ready in half a day instead of the other way around.

What?

The messenger is surprised, not expecting to be taken to himself.

I'll send a messenger to prepare the money in advance. I will send a messenger to prepare the money in advance, so that you can have it ready as soon as possible.

What did you say?

The messenger is confused when Frieda, the leader of the Order, is suddenly named.

Wait, wait!　Why do you mention the name of the leader of the Order to pay for it!

But Lasse nods his head at the messenger's words.

But the messenger shakes his head. This is a matter of great importance that could be a matter of national importance. So it's only natural that my guardian, Commander Frieda, should be enlisted to help resolve this matter quickly. If the interest rate increases by 10 percent in one day, it must be very urgent, right?

The messenger of the Seaga State is shaken by the sight of Lasse, who never fails to smile, and shudders.

"Come on, let's hurry up and go to the capital. It's no big deal if you take the dragons. And today I'm ordering the dragons to fly as fast as they can, so that's just the beginning!

"Yea, no, ...... I

The messenger backs away, but Lamia and the dryad grab him firmly by the sides.

"Now let me take you to the dragon carriage.

"Since you're here, I'd like a special seat with a great view of the ground.

The messenger resists, trying to shake it off, but the two of them are demons .

With your untrained body, you couldn't shake it.

"Then we're off to King's Landing!

"Well, wait!　I am, I am!

And so the voice of the emissary from the foreign country disappeared into the sky.

.

No, it was quite a bold scam, even so.

After returning to the town of Dexi, Lasse was resting on his back on the sofa, recovering from his short trip.

How did it all end up?

Letty, who was left behind in Dexi, asked Lasse what happened.

"I went down to Commander Frieda's residence with the messenger in tow and asked him to advance the entry fee to the Seaga.

"Wow.

You can't help but squeal at the thought of that scene.

I'm not sure if I've ever heard of such a thing. I'm sure you'll be able to find out what happened.

"Commander Frida is also a disaster.

The messenger was certainly a nobleman of the Seaga. A knight, I believe.

You're a nobleman at least.

The messenger is really a nobleman, and he's surprised to see Letty.

"Only to find out that the story that the talks between the nations are over is a complete lie, and I have asked the Seger State what this is all about: ......

"By the way?

The knights have fallen and their titles have been taken away. Therefore, such a nobleman does not exist in our country.

So you're saying it was an imposter?

No, he had a ring that indicated he was a knight, and the heraldic officer at the castle was a Seeger nobleman, or so they say.

"But the Seger State denied it, didn't they?

Yeah, despite the fact that the heraldic officer of the Kingdom of Tend confirms that he is an active nobleman, he's not in the Seaga.

Does that mean I've been cut off?

I know. He had a look on his face when he was told about it, like he had no idea what was going on. Then he went crazy and had a hard time. Merck blurted it out.

(Ah, so most of the trouble was forced on you by Merck.

Letty secretly pities the struggles of her classmate.

In the end, the man was imprisoned for being a swindler of the nobility. He's going to be punished as a felon.

...... It's not a nice story.

Letty is bothered by the fact that the perpetrator was only cut down.

"Well, I guess he's just harassing you. You're not doing what you want in your own house.

"Is that why you do what you do, to attract the attention of neighboring countries?

Maybe someone instigated it.

Who instigated it?

"Well, hey,

They don't speak to each other anymore, and silence dominates the room.

By the way: ......

Letty breaks the silence.

"What is it?

"Maybe you were ready to impose on Commander Frieda when you heard about this?

Letty was still smoldering over Lasse's immediate acceptance of the payment of 2,000 gold coins.

If the impostor had gone through the formalities and ordered Lasse to pay, Lasse really would have had to pay 2000 gold coins.

Yeah, I knew you were an imposter. But I wanted to ask Commander Frieda to help me pay for the treasure.

It seems that the reason why Lasse went to Commander Frieda's office was also to have his revenge for the the theft of the magical treasure.

(And I also know from the information from Ketsey and others that the meeting never took place.

The

"Lasse Teima!　You want me to clean up your stupid scam!

Meanwhile, in King's Landing, Commander Frieda was screaming at the top of his lungs after being forced to work with Lasse.

(Though I'm the one who actually handles it.)

And Merc was crying out to be handled by a friend and a job forced upon him by his boss.
