Re:Zero Kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu
Chapter III.54: Alliance Negotiations
Life is the only way to compete with the cards handed out.
Whether it is born, appearance, talent, skill acquired with effort, or cultivated morality, all meanings are flinched and the same.
When all of that is missing from me, Subaru is now aware of it.
By mistake, only Rem has fully affirmed Subaru, but I know a hundred who are far from her affirming ideal image of Natsuki Subaru.
Compared to Natsuki Subaru in the ideal, the number of cards in Subaru's hands is small, and its quality is also just inferior.
But no one will listen to such a cry if they head to the scene of battle.
Everyone has to fight with the cards they hand out.
All you have to do is cut the card, cut it, and scratch it.
- White Whale.
A hand tag that would work best among the cards I lay low on. Hearing the word, each facial complexion in the room changes.
Kursch narrows his eyes intriguingly and groans, and Ferris looks at his Lord with worry here and on the side. Russell, the merchant-skinned, expressed his disgust at the abominable name with a frown wrinkle, and more importantly -.
"- Huh!"
For a moment, everyone would have felt a dark, intense sword swept indoors.
Kursch, who excelled in martial arts, Lem, who belongs to a race called Ghost, and Ferris, who belongs to the Kingsguard Knights. As well as the two girls involved in the martial arts, even the two with few ties to the martial arts, such as Subaru and Russell, felt as if they felt the pressure of touching the inner body directly through their skin.
And its source is -,
"Excuse me. I'm still immature too."
Wilhelm opens one eye he's been meditating on until then and mouths an apology without changing his expression. The old swordsman, stroked with a sharpened sword chi in every corner of the room, touched the pattern of his lower back sword as he felt ashamed of the attention from all.
"I'm sorry I imitated you like you broke my hip talking. I won't even quit this place..."
"No, sir, stay. I want your opinion."
Breaking his hips and telling Wilhelm to make a quiet suggestion to dismiss him, Kursch sends a meaningful gaze toward Subaru.
She put her arm up on her elbow and left her cheek on her palm and said, "So?," he prefaced,
"A white whale is another abrupt word popping up. Does Sir's White Whale fit in with the" Misty Warcraft "thing?
"Oh, it should fit. A giant whale sprinkling mist and swimming in the sky. - The white whale. I know where and when he comes next. I want that information to be judged as trading material for the Alliance."
What do you say? and lean his neck against Krush, and Subaru leans to her for judgment.
Kursch puts his hand on his chin and often thinks about it. And before she makes her decision for the time being,
"May I ask you something?
And it was Russell who had raised his hand and asked for the right to ask questions.
He stood one finger, "Then excuse me," as Subaru nodded with his gaze and allowed the question to be asked,
"First and foremost, I must confirm… does Lord Subaru correctly grasp the value of being able to know beforehand about the white whale, its emergence?
"… at least reduce the number of pedestrians and such involved in the emergence of white whales. I think we can review the luggage transport plan in advance, and reduce human damage."
"That's too, too shallow a thought"
To Subaru's unconfidential answer, Russell strengthens his tone and covers his words.
He waved his hand up at his feet, waving his arm toward the great window of the hall, indicating the outside,
"Do you know how many lives have been lost so far due to white whales created at the hands of witches? A merchant unluckily swallowed by the fog of a white whale, and had no news. The former Knights of the Kingdom, who wanted to crusade the white whale, but were forced to break away in the middle of the road. The white whale is just huge, not just horrible."
There is heat in Russell's attitude about the horrors of the white whale. Subaru now understands that it is a manifestation of weakness and decadence, which seeks to share negative emotions.
When you put an 'enemy' too mighty in front of you, people try to defend their fragile minds by showing an attitude that admires the power of that 'enemy'.
"It's more important than anything that we don't meet. At least, if we can foresee the emergence of the White Whale, a symbol of disaster for merchants, it means more than ten thousand dollars, it's worth it!
Consolidating his fist, Russell speaks fervently of the value of the information Subaru has.
But...
"But"
and he wiped out the passionate light until then from his eyes on his pretense, spreading his fist, which he was gripping and consolidating, and waved flickering,
"The value of that money also makes sense for the first time that the certainty of that information is only reliable. Lord Subaru said he knew where and when the white whales appeared and what they were. but if you don't have the means to prove it, it's just a word game to make you feel better."
"Roughly what this one's trying to say is exactly what Russell Fellow said. I'd like to hear the rationale for Sir's statement."
Follow Russell, shrugging his shoulders with an unpleasant grin, and raise questions about the authenticity of the information Subaru has presented.
Take it, Subaru feels a cold sweat convey on his back.
but I don't feel weak about the front of my body with an invincible grin. While enjoying myself, I cut the next card I lay low against the girls I rode.
Carefully cut, in advance, exactly as you were prepared.
"This is why I can find out about the White Whale."
Say, I pulled it out of my nostalgia. Put it on the table so I can tap it.
In the middle of the hall, everyone slipped into the center of the surrounding table. Seeing that, everyone's expression was faintly strong. - Immediately afterwards, there is uniform confusion in those eyes.
"Natsuki Subaru"
"Oh."
In response to Kursch calling Subaru's name quietly, Subaru stretches his chest without fear.
Without mentioning Subaru's attitude until such a fumble, Kursch points to it sitting in the middle of the table,
"What the hell is this?
and a bright cross-world item with a black glow protruded by quitting 10,000.
- He pointed to the phone and tilted his neck at Subaru.
Subaru's ability to know exactly when the white whale appeared was due to a fateful prank stacked with a number of coincidences.
Basically, the situation caused by the fate prank has many opportunities to evoke a fatal situation for Subaru, but only this time it worked in a good direction.
Subaru had his cell phone in his hand when he encountered a white whale in the third world.
We searched for the lights to check the map in the Dark Dragon Car's podium and just activated our phone, which we succeeded in finding from our baggage.
The phone with a small residual power cut open the darkness brightly and served its purpose beautifully.
Most importantly, shortly afterwards, we encountered the white whale, and confirmed the map, even securing dragon cars and means of travel was a waste of time.
"At that time, that moment"
The dragon car running next door disappeared and Subaru hung his phone to gaze into the darkness.
And beyond the darkness, my eyes met the giant eyes that appeared to peek into this one.
Shortly afterwards, Rem's pre-emptive attack put him in an immediate state of battle, but a series of picturesque, twitchy world footage as if it were a comma feed, flying through the sky in the roar of the white whale and a tail blow, was left behind in Subaru's brain to burn.
And in that series of pictures, there was a cell phone figure out of Subaru's hand dancing through the universe - firmly on the screen pointing this way, it was indicated as' 15: 13 '.
The day and night turn around at the point of a different world summons, and that time cannot be an indicator of knowing time in a pure sense. But if we think of another scene as a separation, it means a lot. More importantly,
"You don't have to know. This is what I call a magic machine that came out of my area. This is the basis for my statement."
- Cell phones of unknown origin themselves can be a useful weapon for negotiations.
It was still Russell who opened his eyes to Subaru's remarks and reached for his phone the first time. As he noticed that his finger was on the verge of touching his phone, too distracted, "Can I touch it?" and ask Subaru for permission. nodding, and when he sees it in his hands,
"A lot, that's a strange feeling substance. Metallic but not so. The surface is smooth... open here?
Russell leaks a small and surprising voice as he opens his foldable Subaru Galapagos phone and the light leaks out of it.
The reception displayed on the screen was usually a picture of an animated character, but I have switched to one of the orthodox watch boards before this conversation begins. Even if properly operated, only memory screens with a small number of registrations would come out.
"Glow, the picture switches...... no, but you can't tell what's in it. A letter I've never even seen, no, a picture...... is it?
A screen that displays an animation of the second hand movement, but the human being in this world with different clock shapes from the concept does not understand the meaning of the clockboard displayed. The same applies to the numbers indicating the time you are out at the bottom of the screen, and it would be the mountain of Sekiyama where the geometric pattern appears to be curling.
It's only natural because I get the same emotion every day and Subaru too.
"It's a special letter, and I don't think anyone can read it, okay?
"But I can use it on Sir... So?
"It's not like all the features are working."
Subaru chooses words with great care in Kursch's inquiry.
In relation to Krush - no, there is only one condition that must absolutely be avoided in an occasion in which Krush is present.
To avoid that untouchable landmine, Subaru's brain was choosing words as he tilted the whole spirit.
"I mean, this is what Sir says. - This magic device and the dogs act like an 'alarm stone' that rewards the approaching white whale."
"I don't remember hearing that alarm stone, but I think so"
By name, it's probably a kind of demon ore that serves as an alarm replacement for this world.
Sense to sounds, signs, and mana movements and hit them as tools for emitting light, emitting warning sounds, and doing around them.
"A magic device that rewards the presence of a white whale as it approaches…? How's the eye, Russell Fellow?"
"To be honest, you're doing great. Individual differences are significant when it comes to magic appliances, and it is rare for identical ones to be excavated. Because dialogue mirrors, etc. that are established up to the replication method, are only exceptions among the exceptions. … It is therefore difficult to talk about the authenticity of the use of this magic machine"
Asked about his judgment on tools not in his knowledge, but Russell avoids mouthing unfounded guesses. At present, Russell's position still stands neither on the Subaru side nor on the Kursch side, but only on the part of bona fide third parties.
The evolution of the negotiations also greatly affects his own standing. Naturally, his eyes are tough in the middle of discerning whether it is in his own interest to give to Subaru or Kursch.
As a result, Krusch, who was refused an answer by Russell, frowned at the difficulty,
"When that happens, don't lose sight of the means to make sure it's true or false enough. Then it is difficult to peddle Sir's claims. Okay, what do we do?
"Sure, you're in trouble. At least I have some means to prove it."
With his hands wide open, Subaru turns back to Krush with the same trick as you. She glanced surprisingly at Subaru's attitude and words like that, "Hmm," after she leaked her little exhale from her lips.
"Do you actually want to get close to the Warcraft and ring it? Or is there something I can prove that the magic device is a tool to react to warcraft?
"Correct one."
Standing one finger, Subaru waved his finger with a return of interest to Krush,
"The Magic Device does not react to the Warcraft itself. If you do that, you'll sound like a warcraft living all over the place."
"- I mean, you only react to the threat of the Warcraft?
Kursch responded to Subaru's attention, and then she went on to say "such a convenient story" to try to put on a smile.
but in advance of that her reaction,
"- Ah."
And there was something that leaked a small, convincingly similar emotional voice.
Whoever it is, it is still Rem with his finger touched on Subaru's sleeve.
She put her hand on her mouth to shame that her will intervened in the conversation, but before hearing that her apology,
"You reacted curiously, Rem. Do you have any idea?
To Krush's pursuing voice, Rem runs his eyes to the side of Subaru only for a moment. Seeing apologies and concerns float there, Subaru nodded to reassure her,
"If you need anything, you can talk to me, okay?
"- Yes, if Subaru says so."
With permission, Lem, who took a step forward, turned back to Krush, showing his cell phone on the table by hand.
"It's in the realm, so I can't tell you much detail...... there was a noise the other day involving the Warcraft. In doing so, as soon as possible, it was Subaru who moved to clean things up, and the Lord, Roswar, will admit it."
"One thing involving a warcraft - you said you noticed it with this magic device?
"To realize without any reason, it was too good a problem."
Fearing, Rem leans his neck faintly and leans over Subaru.
Inside, as a girlfriend, I guess there was a part of Subaru that was spinning his thoughts about how he had perceived one of the juggernauts.
Her doubts, rather than pure doubts, were being dispelled by Subaru's submitted 'Magic Device'.
――――
Quiet, Krush's gaze pierces her when she hears Rem's answer.
The sharp eye instills consciousness into Rem's eyes, giving him the illusion that he's trying to crumble through to its interior.
Only a few seconds if you try it in time, but time passes to expose you to intimidation that will take away your strength doh,
- You're not lying.
and Kursch showed a certain understanding and credibility for Rem's answer.
Listening to her words, Subaru is distressed to keep his blatant relief from appearing on his face, while in his heart he cannot afford to hold his fist firmly and gut pose.
Everything Subaru uttered about that function of the magic device 'Cell Phone' is, of course, all but a cod-out grand jubilee.
It was a farce with a haphazard overlap of haphazards, and it could be said to have been disrespectful in an occasion where we talked about reciprocal negotiations if we had been informed of the fact that it was false paint, a barbarity that was not strange to be slapped off.
But Subaru misled this evil situation with diligent language choices and topical guidance.
In response to Kursch's question, Subaru has not once lied or falsified.
Cell phones are not such tools as allowances or gradual ringing against the existence of warcraft, and Subaru, who was even inert in his email function, is not able to use that function.
An affirmation by a third party of the function of the 'magic machine', which he considered most difficult, that the occasions that could not be cut through without lying were deluded by silence and a change of subject.
That was accomplished by inducing Krush's interest in Lem, who unconsciously made a statement to become an ally of Subaru.
If we talked about 'magic vessels' reacting to the threat of warcraft, Subaru predicted that if they were lems, they would be linked to juggernauts. In fact, Rem linked his phone to the Juggernaut noise, and the reaction attracted Kursch's interest brilliantly.
As a matter of fact, Rem just said what he believed in.
Echo, that was a different understanding than the truth...
"It's like you know if they lied or not."
"Let me brag, you're right. Speaking of observational eyes - that sounds good, but it's actually the benefit of the 'protection of the wind' given to us."
Kursch responds with an unimaginable response to Svalbard's story that he intends to tear.
Subaru just thought it was due only to the certainty of her eyesight when it came to 'ability to spot lies', which Krush had spoken of in the previous world.
"Seeing the wind means using the invisible as a judgment material. Nature, I see the 'wind' surrounding my opponent in my eyes. Below what you say lies lies are naturally things that blow that way. - Lem didn't have any of that."
"Heh, heh, yeah. I didn't know that."
"There's a wind of upset, Natsuki Subaru. Well, it's not fair that you don't know how to protect my wind in a negotiating setting."
Subaru smiles tightly, unable to hide his inner agitation from the evil of the Kursh, who says it's obvious.
It would be a kind of disobedient technique, a blessing that makes undeniable sense of the authenticity of the other person's words. Even YES or NO discernment can be an extremely bad means in situations where it cuts the card for the word negotiation.
Whatever.
"Whatever Sir's attitude is now, there is no falsehood in what Rem said. At least it will serve as a basis for Sir's prior detection of the threat of the Warcraft."
Questioning the veracity of Rem's words, and putting his trust in his own 'protection of the wind', Kursch overlooked Subaru's prepared palliative way out.
Subaru feels guilty about setting up deceit on a noble opponent, but his inner pain on the surface does not even produce fine dust. Because I understand that there is no excuse for not intending to hit a lie with a fundamental part.
We made our positions clear to each other and divided them when they were relative to each other in the context of negotiations.
Then don't feel guilty about choosing how to cut the hand that cuts so that it looks good on them. Not to mention disrespectful tens of millions, such as not even ready to cut 'lies'.
"With regard to the effects of the magic apparatus, can you believe it?
"That's a quick count, too. Only, even though I could see through the lack of a connection in the back, it doesn't make any difference to my internal defense. The future of the king's race - hence the judgment that may shape the future of the kingdom. Don't be reckless."
If you can drop the dictation here, Subaru's prospect will just be flushed.
Information on the emergence of white whales - seems to have gained minimal credibility there, but only to the extent that they can continue to be used for the topic without laughing it off.
To lift that confidence and elicit Subaru's desired answer-,
"- That magic machine business deal, get us mixed up, too. Yeah?
What sounded indoors to the fake was a different voice than anyone else's that had been on this scene until then.
Surprised, there is a person in front of Subaru who looks back hastily, keeping his back in the open hall door, and shows a bare gesture of knocking on the door with the back of his lifted hand.
"It's weird that Teng is the most surprised person I've called, myself"
When she looked at the subaru with a flashing face, she laughed at the soft face in a mean loose manner and gently put her fingers through her wavy, light purple hair.
The soft hair that reaches to the waist is like cotton wool, and the laid-back face gives nature and a tranquil emotion to others. But behind the eyes that shape the laughter, they glimpse this one with an uninterrupted glow, and in its head the demons of the world of economics line up like numbers compete.
"- Anastasia hosin"
Quietly in a low voice, Krush mutters the name of that visitor.
Anastasia, who had received it and had been called by name, smiled "well,"
"He came out in a hurry because he called me out, but he's starting to talk business without us. How sloppy is that? That sounds like such an interesting money-making story... that we mixed it up too?
What is content is pleasantly said on the back, Anastasia crossing the hall to the center.
Breathtaking to that walking girlfriend, Subaru sends her weak floating eyes behind her for only a moment. The open door closed slowly, and visitors other than her-,
"Don't worry, Julius will come, okay?
"-"
I spot the rush inside that Subaru and Anastasia spills softly as I go through the side of Subaru. She shrugged her shoulders in a troubled manner when she took Subaru's surprise glance sideways,
"Now Julius is cautious on the orders of the captain. In the middle of a miserable punishment without the orders of your master. Troubled knights."
"Prudence..."
Being informed of facts you didn't know, Subaru the Parrot can't hide his surprise.
One incident at that squad yard was the general thrust of the Kingsguard Knights, and I assumed that Subaru's dislikeness would be buried without shame.
He laughs back at Subaru with a strange face as he leans back at Ferris with his side. If you knew, and you hadn't told Subaru those stories - it's a lot tough.
Or if it had been Subaru until half a day ago, I would have laughed at Julius' condition when I heard the story as being in a good mood, and would not have thought about it in any way, such as admonition to myself.
Maybe his knight knew that.
Whatever.
"Called... that means it was Natsuki Subaru who called Sir?
"Pretty girl with that burn. If you really want to pay for a burn in front of the door... if you're a member of the King's race and they talk about selling information about the" White Whale "besides, you can't just not come."
Anastasia responds to Kursch's query sees Subaru.
I pull my jaw and nod at that girlfriend's gaze, and Subaru feels the situation move a lot.
- Now everyone who wanted to be invited to this negotiating forum will have met together.
Krush as an opponent of a reciprocal alliance. Russell, on behalf of the merchants of the King's Capital, in order to cross with its Krush. Adding Anastasia, who is even Krusch's adversarial candidate and also stands up to Russell -
"Excuse me, I need to ask you something, Lord Subaru"
"Oh, my God, Mr. Russell"
Russell raises his hand and asks as he puts Anastasia in his sight.
to Subaru's snort. He touched his jaw beard and prefaced, "I don't think so,"
"I would like to hear the sincerity with which you called Anastasia on this occasion. Candidates for the King, and the Horsin Chamber of Commerce, are also emerging and vocal in the gathering of traders in the King's Capital. As far as I'm concerned, there's no way I'm not going to ask any more than my position at this meeting is going to be unclear."
"Would you be angry if I said something to put it on the scale?
Close one eye and the air in the room changes all at once to Subaru accordingly.
Russell puts discomfort on his face at the fact that his concerns have been centered, and Kursch also makes him feel something dangerous about the look he meditates on. Only Anastasia doesn't change the atmosphere until then, but the glances like a carnivore who targets the prey she has from the beginning don't shake shards either.
"I mean, does Sir say this? - Anastasia Horsin, our home, or letting us compete to buy 'White Whale' information high, and choose an ally on top of that."
――――
"If so, it's too shallow a choice, Natsuki Subaru."
Beating a hegemony at the silent Subaru, Krusch rises out of his chair and stands in front of Anastasia. Naturally, the stand-up between the two with height differences takes the form of Anastasia looking up,
"Oh, yeah, Mr. Krusch. The man standing on top is scared to be driven down from the bottom... his face, it's freaking me out to look."
"That's not a good hobby. Besides, if you are a lord who guides you where you want your greed, or is it a natural judgment? … but it doesn't change the way I do"
Receiving Anastasia's provocative words and actions in her true face, Kursch shot Subaru with a sharp glance as she removed her gaze from her,
"You're right, Natsuki Subaru. Let me say that if we are expecting a competition to begin between our house and the Horshin Chamber of Commerce, it is a misunderstanding. We have no reason to stick to white whale information as much as the merchant crowd. Therefore, the reason for riding Sir's thoughts..."
"Oh, sooner or later, you both need to calm down."
Just now, as it were, Svalbard tells him so in a considerable panic inside, with his hands on Kursch, a momentum that is likely to break even the alliance negotiations before the White Whales.
Krush sniffles at those Subaru words and clings to his mouth unintentionally. Behind her,
"Sooner or later, you don't think that's the purpose of letting candidates catch prices with each other?
Russell twisted his neck, overlooking the field and glancing at the interest of the abandoned fisherman. "Oh," Subaru nodded in response to that question,
"You don't think you can swim someone with your palms that easy or anything. I know very well that my hands are small.... one of someone's hands, just hold it and it's full."
If you shake an empty hand out of hand, the hand is gently wrapped in warm palms from side to side. It's Rem. She wraps Subaru's fingers softly around where tremors are likely to begin and nods with a faintly reddish cheek on the side of the turning Subaru.
"And, well, it's so full of holding someone's hand like this..."
"Uh, yes, yes, thank you. So, what happens next for the story?
"You're rude. Uh, I mean..."
Subaru gets courage from the warmth of his hands to resume the topic, dogging on Rem, who has begun to have more physical contact aggressively since he revealed his thoughts.
"The white whale cut the card and invited two merchants representing the Wang Capital to create such a grand situation... but on top of that, I want to suggest something."
Svalbard strips his teeth and laughs furiously as he rings his fingers and draws everyone's awareness.
Strongly, victoriously, without showing any signs of weakness or lumbar appearance, Subaru slammed his slowly ringing fingers into Kursch,
"Listen, can you get it?
"- It was I who blocked Sir's story and made the wrong conclusion. It would then be incumbent upon me to take into account Sir's proposal. State."
In a standing position, Kursch arms up and faces Subaru in a dignified manner.
The intimidating wind that blows is gaining strength and we cannot forbid goosebumps to float on our skin like poppy. Even Anastasia saw Subaru in the same way, and the pressure to hit him was simply twice as much - if he was alone, he would have gone away with tearing up and laughing.
――――
Soon, the feeling will come back to the gripped palm.
They didn't call me names, let alone put the codes through each other. Just pure, Subaru was happy with how Rem felt.
Only then can Subaru fight witches.
I hold my eyes, hold my breath once, and feel thoughts and oxygen circle my brain.
I'll be on it, it should. I thought about it, thought about it, figured it out. There are predictive pictures that I have recap the world over and over again, gather the information I have gained, and shape.
It is not definitive. I didn't even hear it from someone's mouth. However, there was also information to be obtained from this negotiating forum, and the picture suggested one possibility.
Is that your convenient fantasy, or is it a miracle that you don't have to do it for no reason that you've died three times - a battle.
"Mr. Krusch, you are."
――――
"My information should be absolutely useful for the 'White Whale' crusade you're looking for."
- Information on the future of Subaru and the purpose Kursch had.
The codes between things aimed at each other's 'white whales', that was the basis for Subaru's decision to make her - Krush Karsten worthy of an ally.
- For a moment, the silence that fell into the hall gave each of us time for thought.
To Krusch, to Anastasia, to Ferris, to Wilhelm, to Russell.
Each receives the remarks of Subaru now and meditates to indulge in their contents.
During that silence, the time, which would have been only a few seconds if it had been time, came to squeeze Subaru's spirit under dull pressure.
My stomach twitches, my guts scream, and the high sounding pain that beats my skull directly with an iron stick shivers the roots of my teeth.
I went to battle. I struck out.
From here on out, unlike previous conversations, it's not a clearly simulated part. It's a stream that I can't imagine the reaction of my opponent and I just have to adapt to the flow of the field.
First on the nose, how Kursch gets out...
"One, let's ask what you think, Natsuki Subaru"
It was still Krush who broke the silence and let go of the first word.
She untied the arms she had assembled, pointing only one finger from them toward Subaru,
"Where did that sudden idea come from? Why do you think we're looking for something like that?
No agitation or confusion can be seen in voices without discouragement, and emotions are not conveyed.
Subaru, whose penetration as an exchanger is overflowing with a heavy attitude, which becomes a naturally awe-inspiring attitude, swims his eyes, foreshadowing "eh,"
"Rem."
"Yes."
"Hey back, slap me as much as you want"
"Yes."
After I said it, I thought, "Oh, I overstated my mind," but it was too late.
The sneaky shock burst into a fiercely thirsty sound, and Subaru illusioned that his guts had all fallen from his belly with the power of thrusting through.
Of course, she would have helped me, but Subaru's back would have been carved with her little palm shapes tight and red spots.
Now put it down, Subaru retightens his attention to that pain and fever, and when he turns to his surroundings where he looks at something and his current interactions with surprise,
"It's ugly and rude. Hey, I just got you a drink."
"... correct my temper to butt in before I challenge, something that everyone knows. I don't blame you. Sometimes I rely on the superstition of writing 'enemy' on my palms and swallowing them the other way, which I used to teach before trying something big too"
"Master Krush, Master Krush. That's a bullshit Ferri properly taught me a long time ago. He still remembered?
To Ferris, who walks over and whispers to confess past pranks, Krusch expresses a slight surprise at the root of his eyebrows: "What..."
"Lie, was it?
"I'm not lying if I was just saying that I was unparalleled and that I had the power to pay for Master Kursch's lost heart. Ferri, I'm glad you could help Master Kursch."
"Well, you think of me. Then forgive me."
Watching Krush get in Ferris' mouthpiece lightly makes me feel a little brave that the difficulty of negotiating has kind of decreased.
Either way, aside from some of those out-of-the-box interactions, Anastasia also tipped her little neck with her finger on her lips "hmm,"
"Don't be silly before an important business meeting. Stuffing gold and silver copper coins in a bag and hissing in my ear gives me courage...... what, that face"
"Again, we're not talking to each other at the top of the country. I just thought this was it."
Separated from the little things before the important, Subaru turns a blind eye to what they say.
Anastasia pointed her lips dissatisfied with such Subaru's reaction, teasing with her fingers the same fur shoulder straps that she had put together today in the place of the king's election.
"Take a breath... I want to hear it from you. Talk to me, please. Yeah?
"Oh... I'm sorry you don't care"
Blur and squeak in the second half with a loud voice of hearing or not. Anastasia responded by simply waving her hands small and did not mention if it could be heard.
It is obvious that the current interaction with her was as much a measure to buy Subaru enough time to put his thoughts together exactly. With regard to the Krusch and the others, the vegetables are likely, but sweet in their generosity Subaru organizes his thoughts once and opens his mouth.
"The first time I learned something strange was when I heard about iron products - that is, weapons being bought and sold at high prices."
Slowly, Subaru picks up scattered information so as to include bites.
It's the first world, the second world, a lot of information I've learned in the third world.
"Until then, it was a bundle of weapons and protective equipment. There are places where we collect a lot of them. That's Mr. Krusch's place, well, if you're wandering the commercial street or something, that's pretty much it."
Were you also preparing for the war, or was it someone from the same pedestrian who laughed?
In fact, Subaru reads that Kursch was preparing for the war.
The difference in thought with them is that their opponent is not a human, but a mighty warcraft.
"It sounds like we've been gathering so much momentum because it has so much impact on the market. I'm in such a hurry, besides gathering weapons in the king's capital, not in my own territory. Is that what you think it is?
"So it's too fast to tie the White Whale together. Wouldn't the white whale's 'is' also appear? It's true that we're collecting weapons, iron, but we can't assume that's what the White Whale crusade is about? You may be gathering power purely to ignore the victory of the king and seek to control the nation by force."
"There's no reason to go on such an outrage, and even I know I'm not like that"
If the people facing each other are big, I'm going to have eyes to see it to the extent that I don't missee it.
The more Krush, the less likely it is that people will not be able to see the figure from a distance. Honesty, integrity, like embodying those words, such questions?
to that Subaru response. Kursch spilled a short "well," then looked at Subaru with an interesting gaze,
"Nevertheless, don't be a little surprised. I knew Sir was descending into the Lower District during the day because he thought it would be comforting to mislead the hands-on - but am I the one who doesn't have eyes to see? Forgive the insult."
"Oh, yeah, I am. Me too. Look, I wasn't playing around."
Guilt sprouts when I'm impressed and the look of Krush leaking his exhale. In fact, she is quite right in her view. Subaru's humanity, which she justifies in her later offerings, will be amply affirmed by the insults she was judging until then.
He shook his head, regained his mind, and Subaru continued staring at Krush.
"When I found out I was collecting weapons, all I thought about was war preparation, of course. The problem is part of what I wanted to fight... where Sakura's merchant slipped his mouth."
"Saru, merchant"
Receiving the stream wandering through the lower districts until just now, Subaru lightly blurs about the tipped part. With regard to the part that Subaru blurs, Krush glances at Russell in a meaningful way with the eyes of those who are open.
Russell pulls himself back to that gaze not only saying he is afraid, but waves his hand and neck to deny his suspicions. Kursch didn't see any lies in that attitude or just leaks some convincing exhalation.
In fact, it would be impossible to sense signs of lies from Russell as he stands.
But the suspicion is not wrong. I uttered a word that made Subaru wonder if Kursch was after the 'white whale' because it was Russell, whoever it was.
The first time Russell and I met each other in the previous world was when he returned from the Krusch mansion after finishing the discussion.
The talks between him and Kursch seemed to have broken down then, but Subaru has not forgotten what an answer he gave to Wilhelm's question when he left.
- He said that if the Kursch prospect was reached, it would be a delightful story for us, the merchants.
If it was a statement in anticipation of Kursh becoming king, it would not fall to his heart that the talks were a body that had ended in chaos. or if there are other possibilities in favour of Krush and Russell's - and hence the merchants of the King's Capital.
"I'm Mr. Krush, who almost single-handedly topped in the king's race, but thank you. Looks like the merchants aren't taking it that well. A familiar fruit shop was spilling it."
"You don't deny it. Gold is best suited to pull from where it is. Admittedly, there will be tax revenues for business in my territory."
Most importantly, she took over the words after acknowledging Subaru's words,
"For that matter, I intend to return it with security guarantees - but from the side of the eye, it is only acceptable that the benefits are difficult to convey."
"In fact, unlike Mr. Krush and the people who benefit from it in this territory, the merchants in King's Capital will have to judge Mr. Krush by the information above."
It will be true that she, as an exchanger, is successfully cutting up her territory.
but other than the person in a position to actually be able to ascertain that arm with his eyes, we can only decide that her rating is based on the only visible and heard information on the upper side.
As Emilia is just neglected for the fact that she is a half elf.
She is also neglected by humans who see only the negative side of that harsh way of life.
"So here's what I thought. I don't think Mr. Krush likes people who judge people like that just on the top, but sometimes even those people have to be on their side. When that happens, what can I do to improve their ratings..."
"If you judge people by bad stories on the top... if you want to repaint them with good stories on the top, yeah"
Pick up the end of Subaru's words and Anastasia concludes. Then she looked up slightly as she looked back at her current story and broke those lips,
"Well, stop talking about convenience. Things can't be that easy, and there's a good chance they're not going to be the same in the first place. Much, much more convenient. Unlike twisting or something?
"Denial, you can't. I'm pretty sure Mr. Krush is collecting weapons and trying to do something big to make him a merchant ally. But it's a hopeful observation of how it connects to the white whale. Maybe it's just a story about me associating myself with the white whale because I know it's coming soon."
But then he goes on to say that Subaru looks straight at Krush.
There is no emotion in the look on Kursch's face that receives Subaru's gaze, and he cannot see its inner watermark. But no word of denial comes up. If so,
"Say it again. With regard to the alliance between Emilia and Kursch, what can be offered from the Emilia faction is information on the concession of the demonic ore mining rights of the Elior Great Forest and the time and place of the appearance of the white whale. I mean, the Warcraft Crusade that's been making the world noise for a long time - its an honor!
――――
"If my words are off-target and completely out of line with my intentions, just cut them off. If it's not, you can have it purely deal with the appearance of white whales."
Or just that information, two merchants on the spot would do well to benefit and keep Krush in the face. The eyes of the merchants of the Wang capital are also likely to change favorably towards Kursch.
But...
"But if your aim meets my desire..."
Spread your hands and offer forward, Subaru asks Kursch.
Take that hand, prove the value of the future Subaru has seen, and take the wall away.
"Let's crusade the white whale. - Let's hunt one."
Nightmared about that alien being, a mighty warcraft.
A symbol of evil for the pedestrians, a seed of abomination for Subaru.
Subaru proposes to Krush the crusade of the Misty Warcraft.
"One, let's ask"
Looking down at Subaru's hand as he was offered, Kursch stood one finger here.
Subaru intuites that the inquiry is the last gateway through her.
So far, Subaru has scratched the power of her 'protection of the wind'. And on top of that, he succeeded in bringing out important occasions for negotiation.
And then, the last most battle - what she asks, Subaru breathes,
"Is it certain that Sir... knows when and where the white whale will come out?
- Oh, no, Krush.
whining small inside, Subaru throated with words in his swallowed breath,
"Oh, it's true"
- Then I can't let you lie to me.
"I'll cover the time and place for the white whale to leave. You can hang your life."
Literally, it's information I got from paying for someone else's life at the stake of my own.
There's nothing to doubt about that certainty, and this is not a place to pull back.
"- I have some doubts, but it was brilliant to spot this thought, should I say"
Exhale small and answer so with your eyes closed, as Krusch observed.
At first, Subaru couldn't figure out what that meant. but the words slowly crept into the brain, and the contours became clearer as they created shape,
"Bye..."
"I have doubts, I have doubts. There are many things that do not fall on your heart, and it is difficult to snort instantly. but"
Krusch held the hand he was holding his finger, and he held that hand straight to Subaru. The hand I was offering was held from the top in her hand,
"Let us believe in the will of the Sir who created this situation and in this eye"
Negotiations are in place.
Seeing those two interchangeable handshakes, there's one thing that drained my shoulder greatly - Russell. When he exaggerated, he shook his head all the time, saying, oh man,
"I got some hiccups, but it seems to be in place, more importantly. Lord Subaru's promise before the talks is certain."
"Oh, I'm sorry you're just a poor lottery, Mr. Russell. When the White Whale crusade is over, the phone will give way to you, as promised."
Subaru also responds to Russell loosening his cheeks to the two shaking hands with people's bad grins. Listening to that conversation, the Krush in front of him blushed,
"After all, were you through"
"I called you here, didn't I? After Mr. Krusch and Mr. Russell's discussion broke down in the evening, some of the conversation went through when Mr. Russell visited."
"I just want you not to feel bad. In fact, as far as I'm concerned, I didn't mean to be unnaturally shouldered. Because it's only a relationship in view of the alliance."
To Subaru and Russell, who speak softly, Krusch meditates and snorts.
After finishing the pre-negotiation exchange of information with Rem, Subaru made contact with Russell on that foot. So the discussion broke down and he caught him leaving the Krusch mansion and returning to his home, bringing up this story.
Without worrying about being spotted lying, Subaru proceeded from the outset with a body that knew 'Krush's White Whale Crusade' and engaged in the passive cooperation of those who knew its prospects outside one of the few Krush factions in the Wang capital.
Using my phone, the demon alarm talks are just as good as the pre-meeting - although I haven't even rewarded Russell for the fact that my phone doesn't act as an alarm.
Taking those answers, Kursch now slowly turns his gaze to Anastasia. She turned a hazy grin at Krush's gaze,
"I don't have much, Mr. Krusch"
"I understand the connection between Russell Fellow and Natsuki Subaru. But then Sir's standing is unclear. Why was Sir summoned here?
"Well, for one thing, let's have some convincing water."
Looking around the room for fun, Anastasia touched the collar-wrapped hair,
"There are two candidates for the King's election and one of the leading merchants in the King's Capital. There's no way we can gather all those involved in the negotiating forum for an alliance and make inadvertent statements. Shit, just because we're here, it weighs in on that kid's words?
No? and Anastasia reads Subaru's thoughts and tilts her neck.
Inside, Subaru can only laugh silently and lovingly and delude herself as she sweats cold. In fact, it is a call aimed at that line.
If you could have guessed at all that you would have gathered candidates for the King's election and imitated no way to punch 800 lies. Anastasia doesn't seem to be so much of a one-handed opponent either as she reads through the area and participates.
"Then what's another reason?
"It's easier that way. - We've been merchants since" Akindo. "
Put your hand on your mouth and laugh disgustingly, Anastasia goes forward to play.
Then again, when you can also gently cover the palms of your own hands over the hands of Svalbard and Krush, who are holding hands together,
"The White Whale crusade, I'm very supportive. For us merchants, the existence of white whales is a matter of death and life, and it would be very helpful if you could discuss it. Besides, if you'd like to prepare for the Horshin Chamber of Commerce, there's nothing else you can say?
"Please wait. Commercial unions in Wang Du should take precedence in that regard. Anastasia would also like you to help her if she is to be interrupted."
It is Russell who breaks in and tells the Anastasian merchant soul.
As the merchants gaze at each other and scatter a spark there, Kursch, who overheard their remarks, sees Subaru with some suspicion in his eyes. And
"Wait. Listen to the lords, there doesn't seem to be much respite for time though?
"I haven't even heard it to the heart of it, because the way we talked made it feel. In fact, isn't it a little rushed?
Seen in a narrow stream, Subaru accidentally stuffs his breath.
But there's also a problem hiding more information here. That's about it, then we split up.
"Oh, yeah. - According to the magic device, the white whale will be out about thirty-one hours from now. The place is... the great tree of Frugel, near it."
"Thirty-one hours...!
"The Great Tree of Frugel"
Krush bites his teeth at the little time left and Anastasia twists his neck where it appears.
Yes, it's a battle with time. Information on the time and location of the emergence of the white whale will only be of value to the point where its presence is on the verge of appearing.
If the aim is to crusade the white whale,
"We must deploy a crusade to Reefaus Avenue within thirty-one hours, and we must stop the white whale in an instant shortly after it emerges"
"What do you need for that..."
Subaru responds to Kursch, who swallowed the situation quickly, and looks over at the personnel in the room. And it was the old swordsman - Wilhelm - who came forward to take over Subaru's words.
When he breaks and abandons his previous silence,
"First of all, the formation of a crusader. This in itself is already better than a few days ago, without delay. That's also preparation for the emergence of white whales. I think it was Krush's lucky cause that almost coincided with the start of the King's race."
"You talk fast! When are the white whales coming out..."
Subaru speaks of surprise as to whether there is a pattern.
Previously in the world, from the mouths of Otto and others, the emergence of the white whale seemed completely random in place and time, and therefore feared to be a monster of the immortality.
"The gift of Grandpa Ville's obsession. I've been doing a lot of thinking about it for fourteen years now, sir."
Saying, it was Ferris who answered Subaru's questionable voice. As he lined up next to Wilhelm, he touched the arms of that shoulder-width old man,
"Alchemy and morale are worrying because Grandpa Ville is here, but we can't deny the lack of preparation. When I heard that Master Kursch had come to Wang Capital under the leadership of his army, it was only because of all the noise that we got together, sir."
"Sure. We can't say we're ready for weapons and tools yet..."
Wilhelm nods at Ferris' words. but the old man turned his sharp eyes to Subaru, then to two Anastasia and Russell,
"For that, I guess that means you two are in the same seat. Lord Subaru."
"No, well, maybe something like this. The one?
Svalbard scratches his head and answers weakly and humbly to Wilhelm's words.
receive a reply of that Subaru's passive affirmation, and Russell touched his jaw to
"We have already moved the union and are preparing for it. Let us gather what we need from shops throughout the Wang capital by tomorrow after noon."
"Same goes for the Horsin Chamber of Commerce, yah. Other than union affiliation, we have other items for sale, so I hope so."
Following Russell, Anastasia also declared strong cooperation.
She then gave her tongue when she sent her gaze toward the mundane Krush,
"It's merchants who say they don't miss business opportunities. This is why we responded to the call. Yeah, I knew I wouldn't have the moment to sell things to people."
Without concealing his tremors, Anastasia laughs with her hands on her cheeks with a tranced look.
Reddish cheeks and poor looks go hand in hand, which is a very picturesque appearance, but I can't even say it's smiling because it's the guardian guts that underlie it.
"Things are the same, but I still owe you the best if you want to sell them. No shape, no loss - no price tag."
"I'm on your side now, so it's me, but when I ask you again, you're serious. Ooh, you merchant!
To the screaming Subaru, "Yeah, yeah, yeah," Anastasia said in a good mood. Seeing such an exchange, Krusch exhales like he was drained of poison gas,
"Were you blocking the way before the negotiations,? I see. So I'm the one who wasn't ready in this situation? I'm impressed, Natsuki Subaru."
"I'm just saying that the preview review went well. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
It is the first stage of negotiations, that is, one breakthrough in the wall that must be overcome.
Though the result of putting prep on it, I still just think it's a piece of paper. The fact that Irregulars sided with Subaru is arguably one of the reflections.
Still,
"You managed to keep the face left in the king's capital, Rem."
"- Yes. That's right, Subaru is nice"
Say, softly shake back the hand of those who were let go, opposite what you offer the Kursches, to share the victory of the negotiations with Rem.
To my mind, it would be she who is more than happy with the achievements of this negotiation.
At the beginning of her stay in the Wang capital, unable to reveal herself to Subaru, she should have come to negotiate with Krush in solitude. He challenged the negotiations full of permissible powers and still could not sustain his alliance. The predicament of Emilia's camp will not change if it fails, and we do not know what will happen next if we see a cure for Subaru.
There is no doubt that any anxiety has exhausted her body and mind.
Could you give her back a little of that anxiety and just something to reward her for the worries she has put on?
If that was the case, that was all I was happy with Subaru now.
And -,
- Lord Subaru.
A voice was uttered to the lid by Subaru, who exchanged joy with Rem.
If you look, Wilhelm, who walked right up to the corner, looks at Subaru with a serious look. nature, when Subaru looked up at him to the feeling of being corrected his spine, the old man placed between breaths,
"Thank you."
And, briefly, he knelt down on the spot and took the form of a thank you.
Subaru can't hide his surprise at that sudden behavior. but Subaru was the only one who reacted to it, and each of the other faces showed a certain understanding of Wilhelm's deeds. Not even Rem, not even Anastasia.
"My lord, thank you as much as to Master Kursch. We thank you for giving us the opportunity to fight back."
"Uh, the... Huh?
"Come and spot the already wise Lord Subaru, but again"
Wilhelm ignores Subaru's confusion and removes his sword from his waist by sheath.
And when you put your sword on the floor, and take the form of the most salute that you can put your hands on it,
"Trias, previously named, is an old family name. Married Teresia Van Astrea, an earlier Sword Saint, to his wife and defiled the last seat of the Sword Saint lineage - that's me, Wilhelm Van Astrea."
Inheriting his breath, Wilhelm lived a hectic glow in his eyes,
"Thank you for the warmth you have given this old body the opportunity to discuss the hate warcraft that took my wife."
Deep, deep, sobering words of Wilhelm.
Everyone indoors hears the words, just waiting for Subaru's answer.
Pushed back by that expectation, Subaru breathed small,
"Ah, oh. Also, of course I knew. Naturally, I thought Mr. Krush would come aboard the White Whale Crusade."
"Natsuki Subaru"
Kursch interrupts the answer with a subtle bite.
She glanced at Subaru and whispered still in a hand held position,
"There's a wind of lies, sir."
And, for the first time, he spotted Subaru's lies, which he couldn't fix, and made him prove the effectiveness of "Protecting the Wind".
