Just a small glossary.Sorry for the wait.

Sato - MC
Victor- Merchant of Free Hamerun
Diabor- Benjamin(merchant of free Hamerun)’s aide
Jacob - Former strongest swordsman




The Hill of Kasa, The Kasa were the ones who served the First King of Udon, Overlooking the Entire Capital City of Tenkatsus.h.i.+, while thinking about how to develop the kingdom.


{EN: the King has to be Poco right? or is it Souta? (from Poco’s udon world)}



On this Hill of Kasa, a Magnificent Mansion rested. There was a Library, Art Museum and a theater in the premises and a Party room which could accommodate Ten thousand people. The number of servants numbered in the thousands. For those who do not know about the Udon kingdom, it’s a large mansion which is no doubt lower compared to the Royal Palace of the Kingdom of Udon. {EN: this isn’t from some over-the-top food manga right?}



This large mansion is owned by the Finance Minister Baryuu Vori Nox, the family which is said to hold the most Authority in the Udon Kingdom.


An example of the amount of power they possess would be that although there are many forests and Rivers between the Hill of Kasa and the Udon Kingdom Capital, The Finance Minister Baryuu made a single road directly connecting the Royal Castle at Government's expense. Such a ridiculous public road project was made for the selfish person at the cost of the Government's expense. But, there was no-one in the Civil Servants Department or the aristocrats who could complain about Finance Minister Baryuu Vori Nox in the King’s Castle or his budget allocation. Such theatric public work projects are given the breath of life from the Finance Minister Baryuu Vori Nox. The people living in the Kingdom called it the “Way of Baryuu” as the path that was made without thinking of any cost effective methods, it’s without a doubt thought of as the “Green Bottle Fly’s Path” which came from the path of a Green Bottle Fly* from where the word Greedy Aristocrat is coined from.
{TLN*: Fly species Lucilla sericata}


[Eii, this is Annoying. Even though I compromised so much, Mr. Jacob]


In a room inside the mansion which the commoners refer to as the “fly’s castle”, Finance Minister Baryuu Vori Nox sits on a chair as he completes his talks with Jacob. The chair was made of precious spirit trees which are traded at an extremely high price. And, as if to ruin the mysterious and pale green color of the spirit trees, it was studded with jewels excessively.


The spirit chair does not even bend even though Baryuu whose weight well exceeds 100 kilograms, rather it provides some good cus.h.i.+oning to Baryuu. But even so, a groan is heard from the chair that Baryuu sat on.


[Oo.…..]
[A chair does not talk]


There was a footrest-like furniture called Ottoman, but Baryuu did not rest his feet on ottoman, but on a pitiful Elf girl*. It was an Elf girl who hadn’t even matured yet, it was quite unreasonable for a child to support the weight of the corpulent Baryuu. And to the groaning noise of the Elf girl on whom Baryuu was resting was given a kick by the heel of his foot to her face**. The Elf girl had tears in her eyes, but she endured it by gritting her teeth, knowing what would happen if she were to raise her voice. When the anger of Baryuu was released upon the Elf girl who could endure pain, the hara.s.sment of the girl slowly ceased.
{TLN*: Loli is justice and ELF IS EVEN MORE SO, IM GONNA KILL YOU BARYUU}
{EN**: hope I get to watch Hisan work on him actually… LET ME TORTURE IT}


And if you could look at wide interior that was in the Entertainment rooms, you could see slaves of the different races such as Elves, Dark Elves, Dwarves, beasts, dragon-kin and other sub-humans on standby. All of them were women who ranged from Young ones to matured ones, but each one of the women was beautiful, wearing a maid dress identical to the next one. There was a slave collar on their neck, which had been processed into a beautiful decoration on the neck. The rank of the Demonic cored embedded into the collar had a surprising rating of rank 4. If it was a normal slave, the Demonic core would be of rank 1, rank 2 in a Sub-Adventure cla.s.s of level 20 or less, rank 3 core if the adventurer is over Middle Grade level, but the slaves who are here are in no-way anywhere close to Middle grade Adventurer level. It is just so that Baryuu can boast and show off to the surrounding n.o.bility.
{TLN: Nosebleed!}


[Mr. Jacob was not happy with our proposal]


A man donning the uniform worn by a Civil Servant of the King’s Castles speaks while sending a scorn filled gaze towards the surrounding slaves.


[Yes. The old man, I mean there is territorial issue currently going on about the Marquia Plain between us and the Kingdom of Dano, even though I told the king to leave it to me, he still waved me away saying it’s alright.]


The Marquia Plain on the Border of Udon Kingdom and the Kingdom of Dano is a very important strategic location for defense for the Eastern part of the Udon Kingdom. The conflict over the territory between the two countries has been going for many years, without any real solution in sight. On the other hand, the Dano kingdom has yet to build a single building, much less a Military facility on the Marukia Plain so as to not stimulate the Kingdom of Udon.


[It was little late, but as expected of the former 12 Demon General Slayers. To not even get influenced by the proposal.]
[I guess that is normal for old fas.h.i.+oned people. Besides, where is the item pouch that you told me would be arriving.]


As soon as the Dwarf girl pours some Wine into the empty gla.s.s, Baryuu drinks his wine immediately in irritation,


[Don’t worry too much about this. I have asked for the “Dragons Fang” about this matter]
[That’s it. Just how many months has it been since I requested the “Dragons Fang” for it? I wonder if the item is really inside the item pouch in the first place or if it even exists? And if the item pouch that the “Dragon Fang” present is nothing but a simple Item pouch, I really will not apologize for what happens next.]


[Please do not worry. It wouldn’t be very convenient for me as well if the “Dragons Fang” truly failed. Although it is just a group of Adventurers, they are people who put more pride into their reputation than anything else. If the “Dragons Fang” truly fails then, Leo Vanirom of the “Dragons brigade” Alliance will surely come out. Leo Vanirom is an S rank Adventurer while Sato is just a young man who has just been promoted to B-rank. It is quite obvious who will win if they were to confront each other.


Moreover, although the Item pouch might not have riches, there is certain information from a certain source. There is no doubt about the fact that Sato’s colleagues do not know about this Item pouch. If Baryuu-sama were to get hold of the recipe through an alchemist, then it will not be just a dream to own a production line of your own. Who knows if Sato might actually have a change of mind after he feels guilty of being captured by Baryuu-sama? Sato who is freed might actually feel happy and shake his tail and Join the servants under Baryuu-sama.
That’s why I am advancing the rate of my plans for this. A~a, there were those that suddenly disappeared when they went hunting for Beast-kin a long time ago. Let’s make it seem as if it was something done by Sato]
[Umu…...until now there is not one time that you have ever lied to me. But---]


It didn’t seem as if Baryuu was very satisfied with those words, but just then there was a knock on the door as Baryuu tilted his head. When Baryuu gives the permission to enter the room, who came inside the room was a normal maid, not a slave.


[Goshujin-sama*, Rustig-sama has come over to visit, should I send him over?]
[Victor huh. It’s probably about the item that I asked of him. Alright, have him come over to the Drawing room.]
[Certainly]
{EN*: it’s the romaji of the j.a.p word for Master}


Without even checking the situation or even looking at the other slaves, the maid leaves. This here is certainly a place where people will see painful situations. Therefore it is not a place where you can work unless you are indifferent to everything and do not show your emotions.


[Baryuu-sama, about the contents of the item pouch, what if Victor-sama peeks into the contents?]
[WHAT!? you even know about Victor!]
[ah um, He is one of the people who are in search of Sato who probably does not know about the contents of the item pouch]


[Fuuu~, He is a man whose sense of smell for gold is greater than for other things.]


Victor who was moving to Drawing room from the Reception come in to see Baryuu, who hugged him exaggeratedly. Although Victor was hugged by the Baryuu, he was the one that felt pain, But he forgave Baryuu, why? Because the person in question himself ignores it while not minding too much about it.


[Baryuu-sama, I heard all about it! I heard that you have more power in the Kingdom of Udon than the king himself.]
[Wahaha! Do not say such things, because who knows just who might be listening in?]
[There is no need to. With the power that Baryuu-sama possesses, anybody who would wish to listen in on would be crushed like insects without any noise. And, who is this?]


Victor stares at the man who hid behind Baryuu but continued to smile without any second thoughts.


[Oh, this man is a civil servant of the King’s Castle, and one who I heavily rely on in my faction. He shall have many more opportunities to meet you, so make sure you two get along.]
[Nice to meet you, Victor Rustig-sama, I am known as Francis Arunaldi. As Baryuu-sama said, I am a civil servant in the Kingdom, as you can see from my attire. It is a pleasure meeting you.]


Victor used Appraisal to confirm the status of the man named Francis Arunaldi.


[Francis-sama, such formal greetings are unnecessary. Instead of using Honorifics please feel free to call me Victor.
But still, Francis-sama seems to have quite the incredible talent to get noticed by baryuu-sama even though your still in your mid Twenties.]
[Victor. Feel free to buy goods through Francis as he is quite reputable, you will not be let down.]
[Hahaha, you have already caught me]
[He will make sure to not let you down. Moreover Victor, do you know about the Adventurer named Sato?]


Even though the name Sato popped up from the mouth of Baryuu, Victor’s att.i.tude did not change in the slightest.


[Oya Oya. As expected of Baryuu-sama, you know about Sato-sama]
[Umu, that is so. Did you find anything about the item pouch that Sato currently possesses?]
[When you say about the item pouch that Sato-sama owns …... Does Baryuu-sama need anything from the item pouch?]
[So it’s true that he has one!!]


To the words that come out of Victor’s mouth, unexpectedly, Baryuu’s voice unwittingly reached a higher pitch.


[Ehh, ehh, I know. Well, I do know a little bit about it, but as expected of Baryuu-sama.]
[Enough flattery! Do you have it!?]
[No way! Sato-sama, he is very tough and is several time stronger. If by any-chance, you get hold of the said item pouch, Wha~. Dragon crystals that is said to be found where a Dragon defecates, Mountain Mist that is said to be able to increase the life span of a person by 10 years if eaten, Tears of giants obtained from the forests in which the giants live. Any one of these items that are picked up will start degrading, but the amount of wealth that one can ama.s.s from selling it even a discounted price is very high. And you can even get the two secretive methods of production for potions and the item pouch. The benefits obtained from these cannot be calculated that easily, just how many kingdoms can one buy with those? ]


To Baryuu’s ears, the words Victor spoke rarely went in. All that went in was the fact that the item pouch exists. Just that was enough.


But, there is one thing that even Baryuu could not obtain. And that was the Throne. Being from a family which had the oldest history in the Kingdom, he could not come to forgive himself or having to serve the commoners even though he had the purest of Aristocratic blood. Even though there would be some who oppose this. It was Baryuu’s dream; no it was his ambition that he wanted to get all he could get from the Kingdom of Udon and become its King.


[Baryuu-sama?]
[Muu~~, Sorry about that. I just got distracted a little bit while I was thinking.]
[Hhaha. Were you possibly thinking of how it would be if you were to be a king?]


Victor’s words seemed to struck at what seemed to be the truth of the matter, even Baryuu was stunned at att.i.tude that he had let loose for a moment.


[But still, as expected of Baryuu-sama]
[What are you talking about?]
[About Francis-sama of course. Considering the Relations.h.i.+p between the St Jaderock and the Udon, but still recruiting a person from Scared Jaderock as a civil servant, This Victor is quite impressed with the magnanimity of Baryuu-sama.]
[Victor-sama, Aren’t you misunderstanding something? I am a true native of the Udon Kingdom born in the Capital]


Francois who had been quiet until now during the conversation between Baryuu and Victor, spoke for the first time of his own free will.


[It is as Francois said. He is not from Jaderock so don’t mistake him to be from there.]


[Fuhahahah! It is really not necessary to hide it. Francois-sama is certainly a name unique to Udon kingdom; did you try hard to hide it? If you look a little more closely. Moreover-- ]


Victor continues to stare at Francois with his usual grin. Victor’s smile was the true representation of what a merchant's smile was like.


[Did you not subconsciously almost reach out to clench your fists towards your chest area? Those who have a High position in St Jaderock are thought to do so when receiving a medal from the king, Even though you wear many layers of clothing, you were still about to do it unconsciously but you held it back forcefully. Oh, while we were speaking previously, I used the words Jaderock, back then I did not say Saint Jaderock but Scared Jaderock. Hahahaha. oh? oh? Francois-dono, it was a joke. I was just kidding. I wonder if my joke was not entertaining enough? I think I failed at doing so]


After that, Victor finished negotiations with Baryuu. While Francis looked on with stiff expression that Baryuu found obviously troubling, went on his way to the Kingdom's Capital from the Mansion. Usually a merchant that is as big as Victor would never travel without an attendant. But this was Victor’s conviction. Whether it was place with low level danger or an extremely dangerous place, he wished to go alone. It was forced habit of Victor to train himself to do so, so as to not rely on others. Although the service done to the country might be low, Victor has the highest position at the top, with the exceptions of the 8 priests who have the highest authority in all of the Free Nation of Hamerun. It doesn’t end with just that, since he goes right ahead and negotiates freely it is extremely troublesome from the standpoint of an escort.


[Victor-sama, it will be quite troubling if you were to do this again,]


Only Victor could hear the voice while he walked on the wide road built by using People’s taxes, while he looked at the surrounding area, where petals where fluttering around.


[Oya? That voice should be Diabor. Why is Benjamin’s escort all the way here?]
[It was orders from Benjamin-sama, to guide Victor-sama while protecting you which I certainly cannot refuse. Moreover, please keep in mind your position as well. Please do not go on alone to Baryuu’s mansion.]
[Silence. Where I trade and where I want to trade is my freedom. I do not need Benjamin’s permission to do so.]
[...........That is so, but please consider my position as well. If something were to happen to Victor-sama, then what would I say to Benjamin-sama, when he asks why could I not protect you?]
[Think about that yourself, and I’m not that naive. You’re saying this while being one of the Hameruns 8 Gladiators? Shameful]
[Victor-sama, isn’t that a little overkill? Even so, the fact that Baryuu is targeting Sato, won’t it become a hindrance?]


Victor who was walking slowly stops his steps. In his eyes rage the Flames of anger.


[Diabor, We do not have the capability to throw away Sato-sama, since when did you think we even have the power to do so?]


Diabor who had slain numerous enemies in numerous battles, while under the influence of Victor intimidation s.h.i.+vers.


[Pl-Please forgive my insolence]
[.....hm, I guess it’s fine.]
[But how were the talks with Baryuu]


Although Victor did not get angered by the mentioning of Baryuu, Diabor left the topic alone anyway.


[Baryuu-sama huh…..he was still the same boring person as usual. Compared to Sato’s overwhelming charisma no matter what Baryuu does it shall still pale in comparison, which is of no interest to me. Ah~, I wish to meet Sato-sama as soon as possible.]


It was not his usual merchant att.i.tude. The flower petals continued to dance in the field around Victor while he was still reminiscing.
{EN: is this a s.h.i.+p? I feel like s.h.i.+pping them}
