Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement Chapter 340

Published at 14th of April 2023 07:29:28 AM

Using Iris-sama's gaffe, I managed to escape!

…As expected, Iris-sama also thought that her blunder was bad.

In other words, those words were equivalent to an 'instant death attack' on me.

It was an attack with so much power, it could be lethal…

……S- Shut up!

Anyway, even Rufus-san, the butler of the Bozes' Royal Capital Mansion, couldn't stop me from running away while pretending to break down in tears, kuhahaha!

……I'm not happy about that!

Well, that's how I was able to escape from Marquis Bozes' royal capital mansion, but this is only temporary. Soon, Iris-sama is bound to attack “General Trade Mitsuha” again.

That's why……

******

“Are you stupid! Why did you evacuate to the Viscount Reiner house!!

That's Iris-sama! When she was at the girl's academy, she was rumored to have a fierce battle with Marquis Tinoberg. So fierce that it was comparable to a “battle between a dragon and a Manticore”. It's still being passed down as a legend of the academy even to this day!

My mother is a few years younger than her, and she said she didn't cover the period of her schooling, and yet, Iris-sama made some great legends! Don't lead that kind of thing to our house!” (Adelaide)

……Apparently, Iris-sama was treated like a monster.

And then, Adelaide-chan threw away her usual gentle demeanor and got really mad at me…

“The thing that Mitsuha was talking about earlier! It's not self-defense… It's an emergency evacuation!!

You're extraterritoriality! Having the most favored nation treatment!!” (Adelaide)

“Adelaide-chan, I don't understand what you're saying…” (Mitsuha)

Adelaide-chan was so agitated that she was speaking incoherently… but I somehow get where she was coming from.

Yes, “I don't care about rules! It doesn't matter what you do, so take all possible measures to minimize the damage!”, is what she meant.

So now, what I can do is…

******

“Bring out Mitsuha! She's under investigation. If you want to hide her…” (Iris)

Gyaaaa!

I heard a line that shouldn't be heard coming from the front door!

No matter how much you want to say it, it's not the right line for an aristocrat to barge into another aristocrat's house without an appointment and suddenly shout it at the door!　If you're not careful, you could get into big trouble!

Marquis Bozes-sama, why didn't you stop Iris-sama?!

“Oh, come on, Iris, that's too much! That's a little bad……” (Bozes)

Ah, so Marquis-sama was also with you.

……and yet, he still couldn't stop you……

Viscount Reiner is supposed to be at home, but he doesn't seem to be dealing with Marquis Bozes-sama and his wife.

Oh, he ran away!

……No, I know the feeling.

Once the head of the family himself appears, there's no backing out.

No matter how much you want to, you can't just let a nobleman from another family who came yelling at your house without an appointment and enter the premises then hand over your daughter's friend, a girl, who's also Hime Miko of thunder, and the head of the Viscount's family.

If he did so, it would mean that “Viscount Reiner sold his daughter's friend to another noble”, “sold Hime Miko-sama”, or “sold the head of another family who relied on him”, which would be a loss of credibility and a complete loss of face.

On the other hand, turning the Marquis Bozes household into an enemy would be fatal for the Viscount Reiner household.

What should he do to avoid it?

……That's right, pretend you weren't there.

In that case, it was only a problem for Viscount Yamano and Marquis Bozes, and their daughter Adelaide who just happened to be there.

And the place just so happened to be the house of Viscount Reiner.

……Of course, he'd run away, huh……

Of course, he doesn't want to quarrel with a Marquis, as an emerging Viscount…

What's more, if the other party is the Marquis Bozes family, it would be a nose-dive drop…

……Sorry for getting you involved.

And now that the master and his wife are gone, there is no way that the servants alone can stop Iris-sama…

“There you are, Mitsuha!” (Iris)

……Finally, Iris-sama came to Adelaide-chan's room.

“You thought you could sneak around and get away from me?

Now, prepare yourself……” (Iris)

“I've been waiting for you, Iris-sama!” (

“……Eh?” (Iris)

Frightened and trembling, I asked Iris-sama, who must have wanted to say something like, “Have you finished urinating?”, “Would you like to pray to God?”, and “Are you ready to risk your life by shivering in the corner of your room?”, but she simply raised an eyebrow and said, “Oh”, and went silent, probably because I was covering Adelaide-chan behind my back.

……Okay, here we go!

My life is at stake here!

“The product we have been researching and preparing for Iris-sama is finally ready!” (Mitsuha)

“……Eh?” (Iris)

Iris-sama was taken aback, looking dumbfounded.

Okay, I've swallowed my opponent!

“Here you go!” (Mitsuha)

With that, I offered four framed photographs.

Iris-sama and Beatrice-chan have two each.

In fact, during the preparation period for “Sorority,” I took some pictures of Iris-sama and Beatrice without telling them. I pretended to be half joking.

Then I asked the shop clerk to modify it.

In addition, I had the beauty salon department staff supervise the before and after photos, and this is what I was able to get within the manageable range with makeup technology.

“Wh…” (Iris)

Iris-sama was at a loss for words.

Marquis-sama was also frozen with his mouth wide open.

Of course, if she knew that she was actually a goddess, or that his wife was actually a goddess, they would be surprised and even freeze.

“Ko~kokoko~ kokokokoko~……”

“Ko~kokoko~ kokokokoko~……”

They're like two chickens…

“Hey, this is…” (Bozes)

“Yes, this is what Iris-sama and Beatrice-chan would look like wearing our cosmetics and raising the appeal.

However, in order to do so, it's necessary to select cosmetics and makeup tools that suit the two of you, and verify whether they are suitable for your skin, so we spend time researching them.

It's different from the mass-produced general-purpose items that are scattered around for little girls, you know?” (Mitsuha)

“……I forgive you. Start the product trials immediately!” (Iris)

And then, Iris-sama and the Marquis-sama left…

******

“What a dangerous bridge you made me cross! I thought I was going to die!!” (Adelaide)

Adelaide-chan's heart seems racing.

…But today I was able to see various aspects of Adelaide-chan's true face, so I'll take that as a good thing.

It was refreshing to talk frankly in a way we had never done before, and I felt like we were now best friends, which made me a little bit happy.

…However, when will Viscount Reiner and his wife, who seem to have escaped through the back door, come back…

I've been invited to dinner at the Reiner household today.

Even Marcel-san was enthusiastic…
