Chapter 177

177 . Confusion 2

“What did you say!” (the King)

The king slumped on his seat after hearing the reports from his subordinate .

“The update from the Rephilia Trade is, just as usual, [we are still unable to reach her] . And from Marquis Mitchell is…” (the subordinate)

“He was finally able to get in touch, but he angered the other party and parted herself from him, huh…” (the King)

“Right . And the cause of their worsening relationship is…” (the Subordinate)

“Because he took an overbearing attitude in order to make sure that she couldn’t refuse to have an audience with me, there’s no way I can get angry at him…” (the King)

The king, too, on top of that he had made a huge mistake in dealing with Mitsuha, the instruction he sent is also ended in a failed attempt, far from executing that instruction, it caused the Marquis to lost the mutual trust and interest which he had built up with Mitsuha until then . Rather than get angry, apologize should come first .

“ “……” “

“Well, Viscount Yamano has just returned . And she just went to greet Marquis Mitchell first . Next, she will drop by Rephilia Trade, the Bank, or her other acquaintances . Don’t panic . If it’s through the Rephilia Trade, and if we pay close attention to the wordings, she will not refuse it unilaterally . Now isn’t the time to panic . … But I did something wrong for Marquis Mitchell . I have to think of something for the compensation…” (the King)

“Eeeeehh!! Mitsuha-sama, you have a fight with Marquis Mitchell!?” (Rephilia)

“Yeah . If you don’t get angry at such underestimating attitude, you will sully the women’s dignity!” (Mitsuha)

“You should’ve just put up with it!” (Rephilia)

I dropped by Rephilia’s place to tell her that I have officially returned here, and she was surprised when she heard that I have a discord with Marquis Mitchell . …what an exaggeration .

“It’s not an exaggeration! It’s a marquis, you hear, Marquis!! Even a power of 100 viscounts is incomparable with a Marquis!!” (Rephilia)

“Ah~, well, that is if [I’m a viscount of this country]” (Mitsuha)

“Ah…” (Rephilia)

Rephilia calmed down a little… but only a little .

Right, rank difference is absolute between the nobles in this country . The involvement of other nobles, great factions, royal palace, and great merchants . There’s a difference in political power, financial power, personal connections, and other powers .

…but that doesn’t matter to me .

In this country, I don’t have territory, I don’t have income reliant business, and I don’t have human relations . When push comes to shove, all I have to do is to cut everything off, take the goods and move to another country .

“But even if I’m fine, what would Rephilia do?” (Mitsuha)

“Of course, I will leave the country with Mitsuha-san and re-launch [Rephilia Trade] in other countries! And we’ll take all the gold coins away from the country that kicked us out! As long as Mitsuha-san still alive, Rephilia Trade will be revived no matter how many times it is!” (Rephilia)

“…just as I expected from you!” (Mitsuha)

“ “Ahahahahaha” “ (Mitsuha & Rephilia)

Yup, Rephilia has broken down happily…

“But, well, Marquis Mitchell aside . Mitchan… Micheline is still my friend, it’s certain that she has taken care of me in various ways until now . I want to keep the status quo with her, just as always, that is, with a little preferential treatment . ” (Mitsuha)

“I understand!” (Rephilia)

Ummm, I guess it’s fine like this with the marquis…

And, next is…

“So, how’s the matter with the Royal Palace?” (Mitsuha)

To my question, Rephilia has a troubled expression on her face .

“Yes, about that matter, although they didn’t make direct contact me, they’re persistently contacted me through my father…Every time I replied that I couldn’t contact Mitsuha-san when he asked me [Please tell Viscount Yamano to have an audience with His Majesty], his complexion was…” (Rephilia)

Although they were conflicting opinions about the management policy of her father’s store, the Selz Company, it’s not necessarily that Rephilia has a bad relationship with her father . It’s not like that her father was strictly kept Rephilia from being involved in the management of the company, it’s just that it was the norms in this country to let the son to succeed the company .

So, she feels sorry for her father that he is getting more and more involved with herself .

Alright then, here’s one good news…

“Then, you can reply with my approval the next time they contacted you again . I decided to take it reluctantly because it was Rephilia’s request . And that the request came from Rephilia’s father, in other words, you can emphasize to the requester that it redounds on your father’s credit . ” (Mitsuha)

“Eh, is that ok!? Thank you, I think it’ll save him the trouble! Thank you very much…” (Rephilia)

Yes Yes, I’ll suit that much convenience if it’s for a family of my business associates!

I don’t particularly want to meet the King of this country .

No, I don’t really want to meet, and I have no reason to meet, but if the other side want to meet me, there must be a good reason, and I don’t think there’s anything good from making the king looks bad .

The best thing to do here is to meet him as a harmless daughter of a lower aristocrat from another country, who will never promise anything, without revealing her true status (laughs), and then cook up an uninteresting, specious story to get out of this situation .

But still, I wonder why Marquis Mitchell did such superfluous things… That’s strange .

“So, let’s get into the main subject . We will do re-examination based on the actual sales data of the delivered products, and the subsequent purchase quantities . Then we will strengthen Rephilia Trade’s right to speak by narrowing down future wholesalers and prevent price collapse . And how’s the stock status of the item I asked?” (Mitsuha)

Right, my main business is more important than paying a courtesy visit to the King of this country…

And the day of the audience with the king came .

Originally, I might’ve been accompanied by Marquis Mitchell, but this time, I came here with Rephilia’s father referral rather than the Marquis’ . And it’s obviously strange for someone who might be a Viscount to be accompanied by a merchant of a mid-sized firm to attend the audience, so I came here alone .

Clad in a dress made by the Kifujin Tenchou, gallantly advance towards the royal palace!

…on foot .

No, I don’t know if the chartered carriage or the coachman could go inside the royal palace without inspections . Besides, the coachman would be surprised if I say [to the royal palace]…

I mean, when entering the SDF base, it’s necessary to show various documents, such as the car inspection certificate, the mandatory liability insurance, etc . right? If you go by taxi, they’ll look inside the car, the trunk, under the car, et cetera… I want to avoid such troublesome things .

And the gatekeeper’s eyes opened wide .

…Normal noble lady does not walk alone to the royal palace? Is that so…

Well, whatever, as long as they would let me trough, anything is fine…

Eh? You will guide me?

Oh, you would be held responsible if you let a nobility daughter roaming the royal palace by herself?

Is that so…

Well, I’m sorry!

And I arrived at the audience waiting room . And I have to wait for my call here . For hours .

The other party is a King . And here, just a viscount of foreign country .

Yeah, it can’t be helped .

And I was called earlier than expected .

Yeah, finally, a meeting with the king of this country .
