I explained that Gulli and his son were targeting Gina and her family. Gina and her family listened to me without fear, probably due to their trust, and in addition, Gina agreed to be the decoy. All we have to do now is to plan a plan and send the Gulli and their children to hell.

"Well, I'm going to go take care of something before I get too busy, so Gina and the others can stay in their rooms, if you don't mind. I don't think they know we're here since we got rid of their tails, but I'm going to summon Deanne now just in case."

When I said I would summon Dine, Gina nodded her head, looking a little relieved. On the surface, she seems to be fine, but I guess she is still worried. Especially since Gina is the oldest, she must be under a lot of pressure. We really need to beat the Gulli's up as soon as possible. I summon Dine with renewed determination.

"Here comes my sister!"

...... Deene's po-faced mood can blunt your resolve in times like these. Well, it's a good thing that I've been able to keep my cool.

When I explained the situation to Deene, she gave me a thump on the chest and said to leave it to her sister, and she took care of it ....... That's a relief. 

"Oh, what should we do about lunch?"

As we were about to leave, Gina called out to us. Lunch. We probably won't make it back before noon. It would be a lot of discussion today, and if we left Bell and the others behind, it would be a lot of food.

"Well, I heard that this inn serves lunch, so I'll ask them to bring it to this room at noon.

"Can I eat first?"

Yes, it's a little disappointing not to be able to share the first meal of a luxury hotel with everyone else, but that's okay, because I'll be expecting it at night.

"No problem. Let me know at night if you like any of the dishes. I'll see if we can order something extra."

"Okay. I'm sure Master will be fine, but be careful."

"Yeah, I'll be there."

I ask Dine to take care of the others, and leave the room with Bell and the others. I order lunch from ...... and Sylphy and I don't eat, so that's, let's see, 16 servings with Deanne. It's not easy being in a big family.

****

"Welcome, Yuta-sama!"

"Hoo-ah!"

I was startled when a voice suddenly called out to me from behind. I turned around to see Sonia standing there with an incredibly happy smile on her face.

d*mn it, I had just arrived at the grocery store when I was thinking of a plan to crush the Gulli family. I would like to congratulate myself for being able to arrive at my destination while thinking, but in this case, I can't. Sonia surprised me.

I look at her and ask her why she didn't tell me.

"Oh? You asked me to let you know if I was in danger or had a tail on me, but Sonia isn't in danger or on your tail, is she?"

Sylphy says with a "whew, that's good to know" gesture. That's true, but last time I asked you to tell me about Sonia. You could have been more considerate.

Sylphy reacts as if she has no idea what I'm talking about. I'm annoyed by the faint smile on his face. You left it as a fun thing to do, even though you knew it would surely surprise me.

"Yuta-sama, is something wrong? You were very surprised. Is there a problem?"

Sonia, you say you're out of the loop. I thought of making a foolish decision to stop wholesaling dragons, but that would be too small of a human being. If you are a man, you have to annoy Ms. Sonia somehow. I think I heard a voice deep in my heart saying that a man of ...... stature would laugh and forgive her, but I ignored it.

"Ha-ha-ha, no, it's nothing. But can I see you and Marie?"

"Yes, that's all right. Let me show you to the reception room.

...... Ms. Sonia's steps are light. Just by looking at her back, you can tell she's in a good mood. I'd like to make her back sullen somehow. How about making the material wholesale? If Sonia gets busy enough, she might be able to relax.

No, I was already worried about Marie's overworking, and now I'm going to ask her to do some new business to collect more liquor. If we add more work on top of that, she's going to work like a madwoman and die of a heart attack. Vita said she was healthy, but there must be a limit. ......

They took her to the reception room and Ms. Sonia went to call Marie, but she had no good ideas at all. I don't know Ms. Sonia at all outside of work, so I don't even know what to do. If she could at least tell me what she dislikes, I would be able to help her. ...... hmm? It's so sad that it's so mother-in-law, but I might have a good idea.

Yuta-san, it's been a long time. We have been steadily collecting waste materials. We have a lot of garbage!

Marie came in just as I was coming up with a good idea. She is doing a good business, and her whole body is full of motivation. I'll ask Vita to get Marie back on her feet this evening. It may not seem necessary, but just in case.

"It's been a while. Thank you for the discarded materials. I will retrieve them later.

"Yes, sir."

Smiling and laughing, Marie sits down opposite me. First we talk business as usual. We'll talk about Ms. Sonia later.

"Well, I have a favor to ask you again, is that all right?"

Yes, yes, of course. Yuta's request will be of great benefit to the Polurius Chamber of Commerce. Please do whatever you want. If you want, you can have me and Sonia with you.

I feel like I'm getting a weird sales pitch at the end, but I'll pretend I didn't hear it. I've always wanted to make love with a beautiful woman, but with these two, it's more likely to be an economic conquest of the continent rather than a lovemaking session.

"Well, first of all, these stones are a lot more than usual, is that OK?"

The spirit kings brought spirit coins for the purchase of alcohol, and there are about 20 times as many as usual. I'm worried that the price will collapse.

There is no problem. They are in short supply at the moment, so it's a big help to us.

Spirit money seems to be very popular. If you can handle it nicely, it would be a big help to us.

Thank you very much. So, about the price, could you please collect as much alcohol as possible with that money? It would also be very helpful if you could continue to collect them, and not just this time. Also, I don't think I can make it this time, but I would be happy if you could collect alcohol from all over the country ......, or even all over the continent. I will buy it even if it costs a little more, so please collect as much as you can.

"Yuta, that's a good point. You can drink as much as you want.

Sylphy speaks to me in a good mood. She usually doesn't interrupt me in conversation, but when it comes to drinking, she does this. The spirit's love for alcohol is getting to be too much. Well, no matter how expensive it is, if it puts the spirits in a good mood, it's profit enough.

"All over the continent? We can't guarantee the quality of our products, and it is difficult to obtain alcohol from countries at war."

Hmmm...you don't say there is no alcohol even during war, do you? People are hard enough to deal with. War can't be helped, but what about quality?

"Yuta, we'll take care of the quality."

Powerful words from Sylphy. I don't think we can do anything about the deteriorated quality of alcohol, but maybe the spirits will do something about it with all their might.

"Yes, we want you to be as careful as possible, but if the quality has deteriorated as a result, we will buy it all back. However, we would like you to make sure that you do not collect items of poor quality from the beginning just because we will buy them even if they are of poor quality."

"Hmmm, that's difficult. Everywhere there are people who betray the trust by being blinded by profit. I am ......, and this is a request from none other than Yuta-san. I will use my contacts in the Pollius Chamber of Commerce and manage it.

"I'm sorry, I asked the grocer to do something completely unrelated. But I promise to make you a profit for your trouble.

"Uh-huh, I'm counting on you."

Anyway, since you're asking me to do the impossible, let's throw in a different kind of business. I feel like I'm giving away enough profit even under the current circumstances, but there's no loss for me if Marie gains power, and I don't see any problem other than her physical condition.

"Ms. Marie . I haven't wholesaled labyrinth treasures until now, is there a need for them? We are happy to help you, and we will sell you ordinary treasures other than magical tools. The person who showed me said that they are full of national treasures.

It's a subtle observation from the clothing store manager, who was all wrong about Beryl's jewelry. Let's hold off on the magic tools and weapons, since they might be useful for something.

I feel like I've thrown fuel on Marie's fire, but in this case I had no choice but to return the favor. I will trust in the power of Vita.

"Yuta-san!"

Before I knew it, Marie and Sonia were sitting on either side of me. They're so close. They're on the sofa, so they shouldn't have to be that close. And, when did Ms. Marie, who was sitting opposite to me, move, if not Ms. Sonia, who was standing? Instantaneous movement?

"Um, it's close. What's going on?"

May I see the treasure?

"...... uh, a little further away, as soon as you can keep your wide-open eyes and sniffles in check. ......"

It's nice to get up close and personal with a beautiful woman, but this is different.

"Excuse me. I'm sorry.

Marie and Sonia quickly move away from me. They're trying to smile elegantly, but there's no way to make it right now.

"I'll get it for you, then.

He removes a portion of the treasure and lays it out on the table in front of him. At any rate, it would be better to spread them out evenly in terms of variety. First of all, various kinds of gems, baseball-sized gems that I don't know what they are used for.

"Don't be so careless with them!

Ms. Sonia screams and runs to the shelves. Oh, I've brought some kind of tray for valuables. It looks like it will keep the jewelry safe from scratches.

Seeing Ms. Sonia squeaking, I feel like I've annoyed her with something different from what I had planned. What about the idea that just came to me? It depends on what happens next. If we can afford it, we'll give it a try.

First of all, let's calm down the ...... ex-beauty who is looking at the jewelry and snickering, talking about setting up a new division or even Marie's business association. I'm so used to it by now that I won't even be disappointed.
