Wow, you've earned 10 billion Takumi Points!
Chloe's exclamation rang out.
'Shh, be quiet, black lizard! Takumi would have heard you!
Yeah, I heard that so much already.
It's been a month since then.
It was the beginning of winter and the snow had begun to fall in the mountains.
The end of the year was approaching, and just when I was thinking that we should just relax and enjoy the New Year's Eve, something terrible happened.
But who's going to save up that kind of money? We've only accumulated 25 points yet!
I've only accumulated 300 points. Normally, this would not be possible. But I'm sure Alice-sama has sent word.
Who the hell could've pulled off that backdoor challenge?
Only Takumi would let Lady Alice lose.
No, because it's not possible, including me.
Then how in the world could anyone accumulate 10 billion Takumi Points in such a short period of time?
I heard he's coming here today in person. You can only exchange your points here.
What did you trade for? Marriage. I don't want to get married! d*mn it, if we don't spend it all the time, we should save it up too!
No, no, no, no, no, it's not at the level of saving 10 billion or saving well.
Even if he had the Four Heavenly Kings help him like the Demon King, it would be impossible.
It would no longer be possible with just one person, but rather tens of thousands, or even tens of millions, of people.
It would be impossible for even the Guild Association to move such a number of people.
''Wha, what's going on?
What is that?
Without a second thought, I step out of the cave, too.
And at a glance, I'm convinced.
Well, this would certainly allow me to accumulate 10 billion Takumi Points in a month.
There was a huge line of lords in front of the cave.
This cave hadn't seen this many visitors since the Goblin King's attack.
The procession, all of them wearing gleaming silver armor, march in a disciplined manner.
In addition, some of them are carrying a huge red flag, and the silver hawk symbol on it looks familiar.
'It's the flag of the Kingdom of Lucia,'
The 10 billion takumi points were collected by the entire country.
As I recall, the population of the Lucia Kingdom was around 50 million.
If each person saved up 200 points a month, it would be feasible.
''Leia, that!
The Princess of the Cliffs!
Leia and Chloe were surprised to see the carriage wrapped in a pure white curtain.
Through the silhouette, they could see a woman in a dress riding in it.
I had heard of her.
That there is a princess in the Kingdom of Lucia who is almost thirty years old and yet she refuses to marry because she refuses all matchmaking.
The Princess of the Cliffs (Siacrifflily).
The name was taken from the lily, a white flower that blooms on a steep cliff.
The flower, also called lily in the East, means purity, innocence, and dignity, and it blooms proudly even in harsh environments such as cliff tops.
Men have asked the princess to marry them, but she has not fallen in love with any of them.
She did not look at the most powerful man of the time, the prince of the country, the richest man in the country or the most beautiful man in the world.
They are like beautiful, unreachable flowers on a precipice.
The men who rejected her likened her to this, and before long she was called the Princess of the Cliffs (Siacrifflily).
As I recall, the princess's real name is ......
We've arrived. Lady Saria.
Yes, Saria Shana Lucia.
'Thank you for your help, Nanashin.
A bespectacled young man in black butler's uniform spoke to her at the side of the carriage.
The silhouette alone didn't reveal the princess's face, but his voice had a graceful, noble aura to it.
''Please get to work on exchanging your Takumi Points as soon as possible.
Ha!
The man known as Nanashin bows and walks toward Leia.
The other soldiers salute in a disciplined manner and stand erect and unmoving.
'My master, Princess Saria, has come to exchange Takumi Points. I would like you to follow the formalities.
I heard Leia gulp and gasp.
I have sweaty hands too.
What if we're married.
What the hell is the princess going to do with her points?
"All right, all right. I'll check on the takumi points.
I'm impressed, sir. I'll start with this T-card.
What is this? It's got Takumi-san's picture printed on it!
What? What's that? Is it like a guild card?
Takumi Point Card. It is the Takumi Point Card, or T Card for short. I, Nanashin, am the one who came up with the idea. All citizens of the Kingdom of Lucia will receive these cards to manage their Takumi Points.
I, when did you make such a thing?
Oh, Leia is staring at the T-card with a greedy look on her face.
''Can I give it to you if you like? T-cards are given out not only to the public, but to all who wish to receive them.
Yeah, I'd love to. Oh, I want one for preservation and one for viewing. Can you give me three copies if you can?
We want three of them.
Don't tell anyone. It's essentially one for each of us.
Leia and Chloe are frolicking like kids when they get their T-cards.
No good. Nanashin-san has completely spoiled them.
"The Lucia Kingdom is currently holding a winter Takumi Festival. Takumi Points can be exchanged for money from one point, but we are also offering various other benefits depending on the points accumulated during the campaign.
It's a campaign that sounds like something I've heard of before.
What kind of special offer is that?
Leia is biting.
I'm no longer a prisoner of the T-Card.
"With 10 points, you can exchange various Takumi-sama goods, 200 points for a year's worth of boa meat, 300 points for a commemorative gold coin for the Kingdom of Lucia, and many other wonderful benefits.
Takumi-sama merchandise?
No, I'm not surprised!
As I recall, one commemorative gold coin should be worth enough to build a house.
You can get that commemorative gold coin for 300 points, that's 10 billion in savings, Takumi Points.
Nanashin, let's get down to business.
"Oh, excuse me. Lady Saria.
Nanashin-san bowed and then turned to Leia again.
''Then the exchange, if that's alright with you? We have 10 billion Takumi Points on this T-Card.
He takes an envelope from his pocket with an eagle crest on it and hands it to Leia.
A huffy Leia carefully opens it and finds a single letter and a gorgeous silver T-card.
Looking into it, the letter has Alice's signature and a sentence that appears to have been written by the Goblin King.
'That T-card has undoubtedly accumulated 10 billion Takumi Points. Exchange it for them, Leia. ...... d*mn, I never thought I'd be able to save up this quickly. Oh my God, what do I do, what do I do? I knew I should have done something about her as soon as possible! ...... You haven't even written about it so far? Are you okay?
Memories of the Ten Gorges Society come back to me. It's all written down again. This is definitely deliberate. The Goblin King.
Well, there's no doubt about it. Well then, what would you like to exchange your Takumi Points for?
Leia's voice was overwrought with nervousness.
Chloe was also nervous and shushed her.
'Yes, then, Takumi-sama and .......'
Wait, Nanashin.
Suddenly, the princess called a stop.
I heard an unexpected voice at a crucial point, and Leia froze with a blue face.
My heart was beating furiously as well.
''After all, let me tell you that,''
Very well. See you at .......
Nanashin returns to the carriage and, d*mn it, puts her hand on the pure white curtain.
The princess gives us a glimpse of her, and slowly gets out of the carriage, holding the hem of her dress.
The snow had painted the front of the cave white.
But when she landed there, she was whiter and nicer and more beautiful than the snow.
And I knew her face.
She had become far more beautiful than when I saw her ten years ago, before she turned twenty, and I was transfixed.
'It's been a while, Takumi,'
But his smile is the same as it was in the past, and I feel as if I have been transported back ten years.
...... Sasha
I call her name.
The Princess of the Cliffs (Siacrifflily), Salia Shana Lucia, was once an old companion who saved me many times.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Wow, you've earned 10 billion Takumi Points!
Chloe's exclamation rang out.
'Shh, be quiet, black lizard! Takumi would have heard you!
