Chapter 207

207 . Society’s Grand Operation 4

Another group of bandits might’ve arranged another ambush, so we stayed to escort the convoy from the back and the front, and after a short while, I decided it was safe and withdrew .

The territory border is just around the corner, and once the convoy reaches that point, the Wennarl barony’s troops should’ve been waiting there to escort the convoy for the rest of the journey . The night camp will be after they crossed the border and after joining the barony’s troops, so there’s nothing to worry anymore .

…right, there’s no guarantee that there are no bandits in their own territory . If the relief supplies were robbed in their own territory, the name of the territory would fall to the ground, which would have a significant impact on the subsequent goods transport . As a lord, one must never allow such a scandal to happen . So, of course, he’s going to deploy some escort troops . But as expected, sending troops to another territory would cause a big problem in another sense, so they have to wait before the border…

Well, it would be troublesome if the troops see the cars or talk to me, so it’s better to withdraw early .

Before withdrawing, I spoke in front of the convoy . Still, I don’t think my real ident.i.ty would be exposed since the color and length of my hair were disguised by the wig, and my voice was distorted because I only talk through the speaker, and I was only illuminated by the strange colorful-blinking-lights of the toys in the dim half-light .

Right, what appeared here is a mysterious angel . It has nothing to do with Viscount Yamano .

Yoshi, transfer!!

“Dude, did you hear about the convoy that was transporting supplies to Wennarl Barony…” (Dude A)

“Yeah, I heard that when the bandits attacked them, an angel appeared along with heaven’s troops and kicked the bandits’ a.s.ses… The bandits are said to be annihilated and there was no damage done to the convoy . I heard it from one of the escorts at the tavern, so it’s no doubt!” (Dude B)

“Did the feeling of those girls moved the G.o.ddess’ heart…? Awesome, it’s too awesome…” (Dude A)

Rumors quickly spread as soon as the first convoy, that is, the one that was arranged by the [Society], safely returned to the Capital .

“Mitsuhsan, it’s getting out of hand!! Everyone in the convoy are treated as heroes, and the members of the [Society] are being called saints!!” (Rephilia)

When I dropped by the Rephilia Trade, she came flying and shouted that out . While sending spittle flying towards me…

“Please speak calmly…” (Mitsuha)

“Ah…” (Rephilia)

Rephilia immediately blushed and calmed down .

“So what we’re talking about again?” (Mitsuha)

Well, even if I don’t ask, It’s almost predictable, but it’s important to compare the [prediction] with the [facts] .

“Y-yes, yesterday when the convoy returned, they said that an angel and heaven’s soldiers helped them when a group of bandits attacked them on the way… It’s a dubious tale, but everyone, including the commander merchant, said the same thing… and as is obvious, the escorts and the coachmen who received the reward after finishing their work went to taverns to talk about such extrlarge news…” (Rephilia)

Yeah, within my range of expectation .

“And as of this morning, rumors had spread throughout the royal capital, and many merchants had already set forth throughout the country carrying the news so that it will reach the entire country in a matter of days…” (Rephilia)

…y-yeah, w-within my range of expectation .

I-it’s not like I’m worried about whether I’ve done it too far or not . Yeah…

“Mitsuha, be honest with yourself…” (Colette-chan)

Colette-chan, who do you understand my train of thoughts that much…

“I did it a little too far!!” (Mitsuha)

“Mitsuhsan, a fake has appeared!” (Rephilia)

“Eh…” (Mitsuha)

By the way, I’ve explained what the fake and non-regular products is to Rephilia before . However, there is no way to make a fake of our product so quickly . First of all, it needs to be as close as the actual product…

“So, what product was imitated? Sake? High-grade ingredients? Don’t tell me, cosmetics…?” (Mitsuha)

It’d be dangerous if it’s cosmetics .

No, I don’t mean dangerous because we’d make less money, but looking at the history of Earth, old cosmetics used quite a lot of harmful stuff to the human body . If such a thing were to use our brand, then…

“Ah, no, the fake that has appeared is not a product, but fellowship gatherings . There’s a gathering of n.o.ble daughters called [Sorority], headed by a daughter of a Marquis family . There’s also a gathering of n.o.ble wives called [Brave Yuukan Club (Yuukan Yuukan Kurabu)] It seems to be a gathering of brave ladies who are as compet.i.tive as men . Both of them are completely Mitsuhsan’s [Society] rip-offs!” (Rephilia)

(Note: the second ‘Yuukan’ written in hiragana, so it’s ambiguous, look here to see all possible meaning of Yuukan)

Ah…

Well, I can’t complain about those…

There’s no way I can say that we don’t admit any other gatherings, claiming they’re rip-offs .

Well, I guess they’re after the [Society] ’s reputation, but that’s not particularly a bad thing, it’s their freedom anyway . It’s no something we can complain about, and I don’t intend to either .

Well, I hope they really want to get along with each other .

Alright, with this, the [Society] would be fine from now on .

I don’t think anyone will turn to be the enemy of the beautiful girls who put the public opinion on their side, and n.o.ble girls who have power and property .  

Fortunately, it seems that the old [Imitations] have appeared, so the existence of organizations like [Society] would not be considered as dangerous or problematic .

These groups were probably not their own ideas but were designed by the n.o.bles and let their wives and daughters partic.i.p.ate in it . And if we try to make such a claim, it will be as good as launching an attack towards all parties related to those gatherings, which was made up of only the senior n.o.bles, unlike ours…

Right, that is equivalent to acknowledge these kinds of organizations publicly .

And that fact would remain the same even if other groups, other than [Society], were to collapse and disbanded .

The other groups are likely to have selection criteria, such as being a member of senior n.o.bles or influential family, rather than personally selecting [those who wouldn’t cause disputes] as we did .

…right, it’s including those who are craving for the limelight, need for social approval, as well as clinging for money and interest .

We provide management funds, unusual items, delicious food free of charge, although there is a fee, we can give priority to purchase Yamano Viscounty’s products, and there are various other benefits… and in the tough times, we will help each other even by selling our own belongings . The true companions!

As such rumors about [Society] spreads, I wonder how those who were recruited and joined other groups think and feel about the comfort and benefits of the groups they joined .

Yup, let’s pray that everyone in those ordinary gatherings that involves neither the Rephilia Trade nor the Yamano Viscounty, who are aiming for fame, can get along well… (Note: Pretty sarcastic are we?)

“Hmm?” (Mitsuha)

“What’s the matter?” (Colette-chan)

Colette-chan asked me who unintentionally let out my voice .

“No, nothing . I was just wondering because an unknown name appeared in the doc.u.ment” (Mitsuha)

“Oh…” (Colette-chan)

Saying that, Colette-chan returns to reading again . The book she’s reading is a novel for elementary school students in j.a.pan .

…yeah, she’s already learned j.a.panese to that point . While studying English and New Continent’s language, mathematics and physics using j.a.panese teaching materials, various other va.s.sals educations, and many more…

What are you!? A genius!?

Maybe Colette-chan already has much more knowledge than Sabine-chan at this point .

If anything happens to me, maybe I should get Sabine-chan to make the necessary arrangements so Colette-chan can be hired as a staff officer…

Just because I’m dead, it would be too wasteful to let Colette-chan to be hidden in a rural village .

…or rather, Colette-chan has already become someone who cannot live in such a village .

Yeah, it’s That .

Luxury is [Plain] enemy!

The human would not be able to part with luxury once they tasted it .

…or I think…

No, I’m sorry .
