211.サーディス金融都市資本提携
「姫様、どうやらグレゴリウス様が直接お会いしたいそうデ......こちらが招待状になりまス」
「おや、お早い対応で」
うーん、まぁ......三日もあれば準備はだいたい出来ますかね......流石に国境の拠点に貴族が夜会に出る様なドレスはありませんでしたが、あの何やら使命感に燃えている王女様に頼めば一着や二着程度なら用意してくれるでしょう。
「エスコート相手はどうするのですカ?」
「それはイノセンシオに頼もうと思っていますが......なんならギランさんでも良いんですよ?」
「......いエ、騎士様に殺されそうなのでやめておきまス」
不満げに身体、というか鎧を揺らす井上さんには悪いですが......偽名を名乗らないと不自然に思われるので仕方ありません。
「えぇ、よろしくお願いします」
「では行きますか」
『......このデザインは何処かの流行りで?』
「いえ、個人的なものです......いざと言う時にきちんと護衛されるように」
『最近は砂糖や茶葉が高くなりましてね』
「あらあら、そうなのですか? そういった細かい雑事は下々の者たちに任せておりますので......」
この大陸で砂糖が手に入るのは穏やかな内海による船貿易が盛んな『ベルゼンストック市』が一番多いですからね......そこから砂糖に対する認識の変化があるかどうかで私が『バーレンス連合王国』の者か否かを探ろうとしたのでしょうが......私は世間知らずのお嬢様なので知りません。
Chapter 211: Dealing with the Serdis Financial City
"Princess, Gregoir apparently wants to meet with you directly. He sent you an invitation." Gillian told me. I'm unsure why he decided to call me princess, but let's not mind it.
"Oh, that was a quick response." I then read up the letter, as it was written in my language. He basically seems to be willing to surrender, but wants me to convince the people supporting him first... Not too bad.
However... The ball will happen three days from now. I won't be able to get appropriate clothing in this little time... Guess I'll have to rely on the princess for this. She'll probably be able to get it done in a day or two.
"Well, who will be your escort for the ball?" Gillian asked me.
"I was planning on just taking Inosensho with me, but I guess I could also take you?" I asked him.
"Please don't say that. Your knight will kill me if I try taking his place." Gillian replied.
Well, Inoue did seem to be angry right now... I guess he doesn't like being referred to by a pseudonym, but he'll just have to endure it for now.
"Thank you, I appreciate it. Then can we continue the tourism of the city?" I asked the princess.
"Well, how about..." And then, as we left the establishment, we continued sightseeing while I made my plans for the future.
"Oh, sure? Is this kind of modification trendy where you live?" He asked me.
"No, just a personal need... Just in case I need to move quickly while my escort protects me in an emergency." I replied.
"By the way, have your finances gone well, recently? With the sudden price hike of sugar and tea, I imagine it must be rough." Dirk asked me.
"Oh? The price rose? I leave such miscellaneous dealings to my subordinates, so I wasn't aware." I replied.
... Well, I knew that the price had risen, as Belzenstock is one of the main suppliers of sugar and tea leaves to this country, and I asked them to start hiking up the price, but there's no reason to share this much information. Better to just keep up the act of being a naive young lady instead.
