l think of it as an optical illusion.

If the location of the installation was known in advance and I can transfer there, the danger would be reduced tremendously.

Furthermore, I am in a cardboard box painted black at the time of transition, so I was never directly seen due to the action of transition, hand squeezing out of the cardboard box and attaching the recording device, and then escaping.

……Mother of Perfection!!

This meant that I was aware of any misdeeds going on at the guard headquarters.

Of course, I also regularly change the recorders in the Enova Chamber of Commerce to gather information.

……Yeah, exactly, the one who controls the information controls the world.

I then explained to Larushia that “the enemy got impatient and launched a direct attack using the guards.”

Larushia was not freaking out about it anymore.

Yes, it was an unreasonable and outlandish attack, unbecoming of a merchant, also, aside from herself, her employees were injured…… And one of her security personnel was killed.

A valued colleague and a valued employee who had helped her to realize her dream.

And the security personnel.

Leaving his family behind.
Leaving his feelings…

“Goddess of Vengeance, Bless Me……” (Larushia)

Yeah, what I scouted wasn’t a kitten.

She’s a wolf pup who became an adult and was now baring her fangs.

=====

“We are the guards.
We need you to come to headquarters.” (Man)

The next day, the same group of people came to Larushia Trading

……Of course, they sent someone wearing plainclothes to scout the area beforehand to make sure that no nobleman’s daughter was there.

“Is it about the theft the other day? I have already told you everything I know……

We are busy dealing with the damage, so if you have additional questions, I can answer them here and now.” (Larushia)

Larushia, who was in the storefront, replied that…….

“I’m not talking about that! You are being suspected of sabotaging the Enova Chamber of Commerce.
This is an interrogation!” (Man)

Today, there’s no noble girl.
So, as usual, the squad leader tried to forcefully take Larushia with an aggressive attitude.

However…….

“Eh? I haven’t done anything…

What happened in the first place?

Is it something like a criminal act, not a business one? Is there any evidence?

And is there any reason to suspect me? I’ve heard that the victim is someone who holds a grudge against me…….

And the only people who have a grudge against me are the break-in thieves who attacked our place the other day.
If you are aware that the Enova Chamber of Commerce has a grudge against us, could they be the masterminds behind the break-in thieves or something?

And by running errands for them, does that mean that the people in the guards’ headquarters are also part of the break-in thieves!?” (Larushia)

“Wha……” (Man)

Larushia was at the storefront.

And she was talking loudly.
It was a well-comprehended voice……

“Oh my, we must inform the people of the palace immediately! Someone, contact the Royal Palace! Notify the nobles in charge of the guards and the Royal Army!!” (Larushia)

And, of course, the people who were gathered there for some reason heard it all.

Zawa……

Zawazawa…… (TN: Whispering sfx)
Every aristocrat has an adversary.

They have factions, they have conflicts of interest because they’re covered by the territory’s specialties, or they have a past history of enmity……

Therefore, it would be embarrassing if a mishap or an ugly scandal in their area of responsibility were to be widely spread.
Even if it’s a hoax or an unfound rumor.

More so, if it’s an appeal filed in a formal procedure.

Even more, if that appellant was the only trading company in the country that could supply the products of the Viscount Yamano’s domain, which were currently the favorite products of the nobility and royalty……

Nobles and royalty in search of fine liquors and delicacies.

They’re receiving arrow-like requests from their wives and daughters for cosmetics and accessories from the Viscount Yamano’s domain, which were very scarce on the market.

Will they be able to attack and make enemies of the Larushia trade?……

Normally, they would just squash anyone who makes a problematic comment, but this time things went a little awry.

So the aristocrats who must protect themselves will try to calm the rumors in other ways this time.

……Yes, in the form of cutting off the people who caused it, not the accusers…….
