Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement

183 . Black Mitsuha

So, there are no serious injuries, illnesses, or things that everyone cant cope by themselves, right? And Number 9 leaked the details of the mission from his employer (Mitsuha)

Yes . The content of the mission is to steal the sacred treasure at most, hes actually prohibited to do harm to Himemiko-sama and your relatives it seems that he never had any malicious intention (?)

Sniffing out secrets, trying to break into the mansion and steal something important, like hell those are [Not malicious]! If you think that those arent malicious, what kind of thing that would register under malicious category in your head!? Or do you seriously think that theres nothing wrong with that kind of action!? Just so you know, those kind of people would keep coming if you still keeps that mindset . You, didnt you realize that you were trying to stand up for Number 9 and his employer by explaining to me that they are ridiculous villains with no sense of remorse or conscience? (Mitsuha)

Ugh (?)

Im talking with grass just now .

No, I cant talk with plants .

[Grass] is a kind of [Ninja] .

Spies who lives in enemys groundnormallyas locals and collects information, assassinates, and guides fellows . Some are completely just gathering information and doesnt do anything else, so they cant be found .

And the one Im talking with just now is Number 6 . Count Bozes Assassin I mean, spy .

I wonder why you did this, Count Bozes

Anyway, it started when I caught him and make him to spill the beans and he seemed to think something overly-optimistic that I would easily release him if I know that hes Count Bozes underling . And he told me that the Count himself said [If youre caught, let her know that youre a member of the Bozes family and she would let you go . But in return your reward will be halved] . Thats why he spilled it easily then I sent him to a newly built detention facility exclusively for spies . A completely soundproof private room where you cant make contact with anyone . 3tatami-mats big, with toilet (pot) .

And the newly built detention facility was likely to fill up quickly, and the burden of the food, facility personnel, clothes and blankets washing, and other various burdens was heavy . Then it struck me, [Isnt it fine to let them to live on their own, self-sufficiently?], it was a good idea .

Without delay, I selected some good islands from the charts I got from the seized ships, I also asked to fly around with an air force aircraft of a certain country and like that, I got the transfer position details . By the way, I also flew around our country to look for water bodies where its possible to transfer some islands there .

Among them, I selected a good uninhabited island where I can go swimming with everyone later .

In any case, among the uninhabited islands we surveyed, I chose the one that was reasonably sized and had enough fresh water, wildlife, plants, etc .

Then, I sent prisoner number 1 to number 4 immediately, and sent number 5 and number 6 at a short interval after that, and the rest were sent every time they were caught .

The reason I first took such time was because I thought that it would be dangerous if there were not enough people, and so that it wouldnt be unnatural when I add Number 6 .

Thus, Number 6, whos playing the role as my intermediary, came to the prison island as a true [captive] . And occasionally provides me some information .

But the real task I asked Number 6 was not information gathering . Thats just an [additional] job to keep his motivation high .

The real task I asked Number 6 is to help when the injured or sick among the prisoners or when theres a crisis that is beyond everyones capability, and to give a little assistance occasionally . Then, based on this record, I can write a novel no, its nothing!

Then tonight, a wooden box with rusty knives and axes, liquors, and a few other little things will be washed ashore, so you have tofindit tomorrow morning . Its a little service from me (Mitsuha)

Ooooh! Its a great help! If possible, I want to ask for more booze . I want the amount that could make 28 people drunk to some extent . And Id be glad if you include fishing lines and hooks . Hooks made of bones are brittle you see (Number 6)

I will try to meet your requests as much as possible . However, a wooden box full of liquors was drifted intact is a bit unreasonable Well, Ill think about something good . Well then, do your best! (Mitsuha)

Ah, please wait! Have you heard anything from Count Bozes? (Number 6)

When I was about to leave, he said that with a bitter face .

No . Of all 28 prisoners, theres no contact from any of their employers, yours included . If I get a call, Im going to return the respective prisoners with appropriate terms and conditions though, and of course, I expect an apology If I were to contact them and they said [I dont know such person! Dont make such ridiculous false accusation!], itd make me looks like the bad guy instead, so I wont contact them on my own accord (Mitsuha)

Count (Number 6)

Said Number 6 while making an indescribable face .

Well, spy is that kind of job . You chose that profession yourself, just give it up .

Well then

Transfer! (Mitsuha)

Viscount Yamano has stopped attending all parties you say!?

The cause is, as expected

No, she seems to have been called to the Royal Palace after that . So perhaps his Majesty forced something unreasonable there

Even though she came here for cultural exchange under her countrys instruction, and that exchange is going to end? Just what was his Majesty thinking!!

such rumors seem to be spreading in the social world .

But I dont care

Even if I want to gather information, I havent met Mitchans dad, Marquis Mitchell, since then .

And Rephilia is just a daughter of a medium-sized merchant and she herself is still a small merchant even if she has Rephilia Trade . Shes not in a position where she can go out into social circles to attend parties or to visit and talk with nobles .

And the content is too delicate to be heard by the public . If it went poorly, the content might shift into something like blaming the King, and the situation would be grave if such a rumor leaks out .

Setting me whos a foreign noble aside, if the nobles and merchants of this country were talking about such a rumor, of course it would be terrible .

And just awhile after I heard such rumors, a letter of inquiry came directly to me

If its a party invitation from a noble, I can just decline it and itd be over, but this one is a letter under a joint names of several nobles to confirm the situation in the from of courtesy call, or rather simply because everyone worried about me .

Because the name of the people who might become important connections were also included, so I cant handle this carelessly .

It cant be helped, lets send a reply

[I will no longer go to parties anymore since I dont know when noble families that I dont want to be involved with, such as Count Wonrade or Viscount Efred, would appear again . Learning from the last party, it appeared that the organizers or the other guests did not even try to help, so I concluded that the risk was too great . Since then, I have decided to continue the exchange with this country through the merchants . I am also considering withdrawing from this country and relocating to other neighboring countries]

Alright, a reply like this would be fine .

If they continue nagging me, Ill go to other countries . If I write something like that, Im sure they would leave me alone

or so I thought, but it came again, a letter

[We will mediate for the reconciliation . Dont be hasty!]

They said

Reconcile with what? cats?

Some lines are missing!

Alright, if it has become like this

[Since the opponent seems to be royal descents, I think they would not hear the words of ordinary nobles . So if those two could swear in honor of the goddess and themselves, under the presence of His Majesty the King and His Highness the Crown Prince, that they will never meddle or talk with me again, and that they will never approach me within a radius of 6 meters, I might reconsider] (Note: Lol)

How about that!!
