I Shall Survive Using Potions!

Is the lady shopkeeper here?(Soldier)

A while after the stores opening, the busy time due to the lunch also passed, one soldier appeared.

Its not a lower-level soldier, he is about 40 years old and seems to be a little superior.

Oh, I dont mean his attitude but his class.

Oh, lady shopkeeper, actually, I have a favor to ask!(Soldier)

Eh, this person, I remember

He is one of the four middle captains who met the other day with Mr. Lt. Col!

Uhm, how may I help you(Kaoru)

Without knowing the detail, I cant decide.

Umm, about that, actually(V. Captain)

Mr. V. Captain was somewhat hesitant, he looked around and told me in a small voice.

Actually, its a confidential request. Can you come to my mansion and see me in person?(V. Captain)

Eh!?(Kaoru)

What should I do?

Actually, I dont think this person will do strange things against me.

Except for two cases.

One: this person is a part of that military supply sideways flow, came to deal with me who can read the cipher.

Although they can change the encryption, as I can decry again, its will be the same. So they want to break the root of the problem.

Two: this man was a pedo and he had his eyes on me.

No, Nope Nope!

If he wants to get rid of me, he wont go through all the trouble to come here by himself.

Usually, he will do it himself or his men to do it in the middle of the night.

And this person, he seems to be serious middle age man, he doesnt seem to be a pedophile

No, he may be a pedo, but I dont think a pedo dares to ask people come directly to his house.

and somehow, it looks interesting.

Recently, I got caught up in bad things, I was busy with clattering, so I want to change the pace a little bit.

Besides, I am not in trouble with money.

No, in order to do business, shouldnt I make the maximum profit possible?

Selling it at a low price that breaks the market price or doing a cranky business would be annoying to other traders and makes a fool of God of business.

Its unacceptable.

So

Business trip fee, one small gold coin(Kaoru)

Ah, yes Please!(V. Captain)

Well, that price will be fine.

Riette-chan, we are leaving(Kaoru)

Yes!(Riette)

Riette-chan replies well and starts to close the wooden window.

After she closes the windows, she also closes the back door on the second floor, and then the entrance.

The residence is about 20 minutes from here.(V. Captain)

Oh, the other side of the royal palace?

Somewhat distant

Not with the sense of this world.

Since Bell and Emil went out to work as hunters, the shop was temporarily closed.

I took Riette-chan and moved on foot.

Even though he is a noble but because he is a soldier as well,he walks just fine without using a horse-drawn carriage.

I also dont bother to prepare my chariot carriage or renting one.

Once in a while, I have to exercise my body, its also good for Riette-chans growth.

Looking back at the glance on the way, Francette and Roland were following me.

Did both of them always keep watching our shop?

Where, from what time to what time?

No holidays?

Well, I have to ask them later.

No way, dont tell me they are standing all day in the alley.

Which black company are you?

That is why I arrived at the house of the Company Leader.

Well, considering the distance from this building and the center of the royal city, maybe he isnt that great.

Perhaps, his family is a Baron or a Viscount?

Even if Mr. Lt. Colonel is the son of an Earl

He is just the third son, he isnt going to succeed in the future. Does that mean Mr. Col. Lady isnt so great either?

And then, after passing through the gate, we headed to the entrance

Welcome home master(Servants)

Eeeeeh!?

Master? The owner of the active aristocracy who already succeeded the rank?

Then, doesnt that mean his aristocrat state higher than Mr. Lt. Col?

Even the Earls rank is higher than theBaron or a Viscount,

The third son still wont be counted as anaristocrat yet. So, as individuals, Mr. Captain is still lower rank than Mr. V. Captain.

Well, its bad to make the enemy out of the Earl, so it cant be helped.

Its a power relationship. (: Dont really know if power relationship makes sense in EN though)

Besides, they are an officer and a subordinate of the same unit, so it doesnt matter.

Both in the military and the company, the ranks, and positions within the organization are everything.

Your parents, parents, age, educational background, it doesnt matter.

Just like that damnsection chief Yarou.

Have an attitude, looking down on the clerks,

No no, that the story in the past.

Oh, that, the middle captain, are you the master of this house?(Kaoru)

Oh, did I forget to tell you?

Yes, I am Sevos von Larslick, the Larslick Viscount(Sevos)

As expected!

Well, I will not change my attitude even with the aristocrats.

After all, Im the woman who even yells at royalty.

Hahahaha However, I will not be rude with aristocrats without reason.

And, as it is, we came into the middle captains study.

An office room?

Somehow it was such a room.

His families and servants are excluded, the only members are Mr. V. Captain me and Riette-chan (air mode), only three people.

Well, finally, the main purpose not

I brought the tea(Maid)

Oh, tea and sweets are appreciated.

And then, after the maid came out, its finally the main purpose this time.

Mushy (Riette-chans eating sweets SFX)

Yeah, Riette-chan is eating sweets.

I have a cup of tea.

As for the middle Captain, because he walks at the speed that the army usually marches, he isnt tired and thirsty at all.

He doesnt have any problem as a soldier, but he should be a little more concern about young girls

And then, when I start drinking the tea.

Actually, there was a treasure hiding in my mansion. I want to ask you to search for this treasure(Sevos)

Bu~fu~ge~e~go~ho! (Kaoru tried to stop blowing out the tea SFX*)

I was able to stop blowing out the tea in my mouth.

They look expensive, yes, his clothes, the sofa, and carpet etc.

Even if I allow to make a mistake, I will not blow the tea out here.

So, I desperately endured and swallowed it.

And finally, after cleaning my throat.

Why did you say it at such timing?(Kaoru)

Damn, that *Pokan (dumbfound)* face.

For real, he didnt realize what he did?

Someday, I will make you blow the tea out in front of Mr. Lt. Col!

Well, anyway, lets hear his explanation.

If he doesnt explain it, nothing will start.

And, from what V. Captain said, it seems that the Larslick family isnt very well off.

No, sorry. He is working in the military, so he isnt really that poor

Because his eldest brother, who was supposed to succeed to the house and rank, inadvertently died, so he became the next in the line heir.

All of suddenMr. V. Captain became the head, he moved to the capital and lived with his wife and children.

And he seemed to be working for the Viscount family in various ways both in military service and in society.

Well, that story isnt uncommon for aristocrats.

Well then, whats the problem?

There is nothing.

Yes, money.

After all, they are poor!

Crop failure lasted for several years, they broughtout all the stockpiles stored in the estate,

They even bought food with the gold coins left in the vault.

However, the mal production is the same in the neighboring territory.

It is costly to buy and carry from afar, not to mention bandit and other farmers may also attack with a life-threatening situation for their wife and children.

The expenses for the escorts cost them even further.

This year, somehow the harvest was pretty much at the same as usual, he wanted to help but both the vault and the stock food cabinet were almost empty.

If they still have something, its now to use it.

Even if its not really fatal, but theres also an epidemic disease,

For the current Larslick Territory, they are at one last push situation.

Yes, it could be a grave situation.

If it is normal, this might be the end of this family.

They must borrow money from some big noble,

Being slave-like as bound by money and obligation,

There is no other choice but to accept the declining of the name of the Viscount.

Yes, If it is normal

Actually, there are hidden assets in the Larslick family

No, it should be there were

Long ago, an uninhabited large ship arrived at the LarslickTerritory which facing the sea.

That ship is the type that the people of this country have never seen before,

all the crew already died, their water and food seemed to be exhausted,

However, the shipment and safe were untouchable.

They are things that can neither be drunk nor eaten, namely, ceramics, swords, other trade items, and funds for buying, that is, a large number of gold coins and jewels.

Back then, the barren Larslick territory had already been in danger of repeatedly fail crop.

The head of the family at that time secretly convert some of the treasure into gold coins of this country. And with part of that money, the Lord hadovercome the crisis of his territory.

This is it.

I want to ask you for deciphering!(Sevos)

Thats it, one parchment that Captain Chief offered me.

From generation to generation, thisinformation on this document has only been conveyed to the head of the family.

The information about the good, the treasure that our grandparent kept safe.

And the third generation head, my eldest brother, was also the only one who knew that information.

However, he died in an accident before telling it to the next generation, which is me(Sevos)

Thats it. Its my turn.

Just in case when the verbal orders lost, they prepared the document about the secret place for goods written in cryptography?

Yeah, backing up is important.

If I had not backed it up for 3 months, that corruption section chief, who wipes it

No, no, its already over, forgets it

And then, I receive the parchment that was presented and look at it

In case of danger of Larslick territory, all warrants exhausted and there are no other means, MAKE SURE TO CONVERT THE GOOD INTO MONEY TO USE.

Colex von Larslick(Parchment)

However, only that was written.

Are you kidding me?(Kaoru)
