Chapter 2371: Purchase of Exclusive Brush
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
This time, Cornelia was guiding Kaito not to the Sharon Trading Company of Sharon County, but to the Victor Trading Company. That said, since they wielded considerable authority, including financial backing, it could practically be considered a subsidiary of the Sharon Trading Company.
However, while the headquarters of the Sharon County and the Sharon Trading Company were in the capital of the Archlesia Empire, Victor Trading Company was located in a different city, one Kaito had never visited.
Therefore, the plan was to first meet in the capital and then, using a teleportation magic tool, proceed to the Victor Trading Company.
Cornelia had arrived an hour early at one of the capitals teleportation gates where she was to meet Kaito and waited quietly inside a carriage parked in a space reserved for nobles.
Since Cornelia, as a countesss daughter, would attract attention if she waited for Kaito in a crowded teleportation gate, a servant was stationed there to escort him to the carriage upon his arrival.
After receiving notice of Kaitos arrival, Cornelia would step out of the carriage to greet him and then travel via Teleportation Magic. Until then, she quietly organized her thoughts.
(Ive already sent thorough notice to the Victor Trading Company and prepared everything else as well. Since Kaito-sama is coming alone this time, aside from the Phantasmal King, who I hear is always at Kaito-samas side, there shouldnt be any situation like the previous tea party.)
There was no scenario this time in which Kaito would suddenly bring along an extraordinary companion, and preparations, including those for the following schedule, had been fully made.
Unlike Marie and the Ritch Barony, Sharon County was a noble household with considerable wealth and multiple teleportation magic tools, so travel posed no problem.
(However, regarding rumors, they are unavoidable. Since we are meeting in the capital, there will be those who speculate or twist the nature of my relationship with Kaito-sama. Well, those who merely whisper behind our backs are no problem. But recently, as is the case with Eris-samas situation, there will likely be rumors that Kaito-sama is close to a noble lady of the Archlesia Empire. Anyone who speaks ill of Kaito or tries to set a honey trap will disappear without us having to intervene The real concern is how to handle other noble ladies at future social gatherings who might ask how to get close to Kaito-sama.)
In any case, in noble society, the status of being friends with Kaito carries tremendous influence. Especially now, with Lady Eris and the Hamilton Marquisdom gaining enormous profits recently there will likely be those hoping to become second or third beneficiaries.
Of course, anyone trying to directly promote themselves to Kaito would be taking too high a risk, so no one would attempt that, but questions directed at those currently recognized as close to Kaito could certainly occur.
(This is something that will likely need to be handled in coordination with Lady Eris. Everything should be fully prepared I hope this flap of the great dragons wings passes without incident.)
Preparations and expectations were indeed thorough, but what still weighed on her mind was the story Eris had previously told about Kaitos influence Called the flap of the great dragons wings, it referred to how Kaito could unintentionally exert enormous influence over those around him.
At this point, Cornelia simply lacked enough information. After all, she had only just met Kaito. Her experience was nothing compared to Eris, who had endured countless stomachaches; she either trusted that her preparations were sufficient or felt some unnameable anxiety and used the sense of readiness to bolster herself.
However, when it came to dealing with Kaito, being fully prepared could almost be considered a prelude to an unexpected event, yet Cornelia lacked the experience to think in such terms.
Nidzveld was walking through the fortress that she, one of the Four Great Demon Dragons of the Southern Demon Realm, called home, when one of her subordinates happened to pass by and spoke up.
[Arehh? Big Sis, you heading out?]
[Unn? Ah, yeah. I have plans with Eingana. Were going to listen to a performance by an orchestra that Eingana recommended. Apparently theyre currently performing in a commercial city of the Archlesia Empire, so I intend to go there and watch.]
[Hehh, an orchestra I dont really get it, since I get restless if I sit still listening to music and cant make it through, but I hope its a good performance. Oh, by the way, if youre going anyway, why not invite Big Bro too?]
[My comrade? That is tempting, true, but suddenly inviting him might trouble him. Ill save that for another occasion.]
[I see. Ah, sorry for holding you up. Have a good day, Big Sis.]
[Yeah.]
With a faint smile in response to her subordinates words, Nidzveld set off toward the Human Realm Yes, the very city Kaito and Cornelia were planning to go to
Serious-senpai : [Exactly. You mustnt let your guard down just because its not around at first. That guys the type wholl casually pull something off like happening to run into you in the middle of the city]
