What Jirie took out of his pocket was something wrapped in a white cloth, a luxurious box, and a collar.

"A good sword came out so I bought one. And this."

Jirie opened the box.

There were several bottles inside, each containing yellow powder.

"I tried to prepare only the best medicines that the Lord can take."

He then turned his eyes to Leo, who was lying on the bed.

"These days I hear you have a fox. How about putting on a leash?"

When I saw the shimmer around the jewel, I knew it wasn't a regular necklace.

Ruel looked at the presents with satisfaction.

"I'll take the presents."

"Yes, of course, they're gifts."

"Why did you ask me to see you today?"

"I have come to borrow the power of the Lord."

"Go on."

"As you can see, the demand for ore is very high. But to keep up with that demand..."

"If you're talking about workers, they'll arrive tonight or tomorrow."

"... huh?"

Jirie showed embarrassment.

The conclusion was reached before he could bring up anything.

In a very good way, too.

"I wondered if there would be any dissatisfaction with simply selling ore, so the artisans will arrive around that time, so let's try selling ore-crafted items as well."

Jirie's eyes widened at what followed next.

"Let's try to expand the scope of the deal to Shio and Lumina. Is there anything else you want?"

"Ru, Ruel-nim?"

Ruel smiled haughtily.

Business needs to be expanded so that there will be more to gain.

"Well, there seems to be a lot I can give you, so I'll make a suggestion."

"Please say anything!"

What more could you want than for workers and artisans to expand in their fields?

"I want to put my birds on your peddler, and of course, I want to expand my range of hearing, not just keep an eye on you."

"Okay, can we take action from today?"

I thought Jirie would be a little hesitant.

So I threw a lot of things in front.

'If I knew this would happen, I'd save my words a little. Though, that doesn't mean I gave you everything.'

Ruel comforted the regret internally.

"The sooner, the better. When Cassion comes, I'll call my birds' heads."

"I'll be waiting at any time."

From Flenn to Jirie.

Once they tasted the money, they tended to wag their tails.

They both had a leash, so I left the rest to themselves with confidence.

"I heard that you are going to the Cyronian Kingdom."

"I see news spread fast."

"Is it okay for you to travel such a long distance?"

"If I refuse, there will be many disadvantages waiting for me when coming back."
