Chapter 559. Who are you allowed to do business with?
(7)
“It is not over yet. For the rest of the time…
“What are we going to do for the rest of the time?”
Duke Hummel was apathetic.
“Even though I am not directly involved in management, I know the simple logic. It seems that the end has already been drawn.”
“that… … yes… …
He desperately tries to make an excuse, but no words come out.
Because it is true.
In order to overturn this situation in the first place, it is impossible to do something that should not be done with common sense.
“So let’s do that.”
“… … Ha but.”
“Or do you have other ideas?”
Cherpal kept his mouth shut.
Even so, I can’t get it out of my mouth.
No, thinking about it after the brakes were applied once, it was reckless.
As he said, there are times when it is better to know the time and step back.
“… … doesn’t exist.”
“That’s all right. I won’t hold you accountable for what. Instead, I want to entrust you with other tasks.”
“Other things… … is it?”
eyes wide open
I didn’t know that he would suddenly come up with another proposal, not a rebuke.
“Yes, you must be in a difficult position at that branch anyway, right?”
“that is… … isn’t it… …
It is true that it is embarrassing.
But it’s not even a noreut to argue with.
“So instead of making you do troublesome things… … I can’t say that, but I’ll leave the branch in Felsen Kingdom.”
Moving with a reasonable excuse.
Cherpal couldn’t stop sweating while listening.
It’s common.
It’s common to send those who have failed to some hopeless land as a way to encourage them.
But he soon tilted his head when he heard the name of the area.
Because it wasn’t the place I was thinking of.
“… … Are you really there?”
“Yes, it is. Or is it dissatisfaction?”
“Oh no!”
He hurriedly clung to the communication port and shouted.
Rather, the desired sea.
If not as much as here, it was an area that was good enough to raise earnings as a merchant.
Could it be that it wasn’t a comparison, but was it sincere?
It’s only half true that this place is rough anyway.
As long as I can’t avenge the humiliation, I’ll stay here, Bodu, just gnashing my teeth every day.
It would be better if I just shake it all off and go somewhere else.
“I will send someone to tell you the details later. Anyway, don’t worry about it anymore and finish it like this.”
Even though the communication tool doesn’t show the other person’s appearance, for some reason, it seems that I can see the other person cringing on the other side.
Hearing the stupid cherpal’s constant cringe, Duke Hummel couldn’t help but smile subtly.
“… … That’s it. Then just let me know.”
After asking again, I turned off the communication port.
And after confirming that the contact was over, he shook his head.
The serious look from a while ago disappeared, and he sent contemptuous eyes toward the communication port.
“This is why incompetent guys are difficult to deal with.”
If he hadn’t deliberately contacted him directly to stop him, the idiot would have certainly tried to commit a halfway foul.
In the first place, he only had that much talent.
“oh? oh? oh? Is that person that incompetent?”
Behind him, who sighs, a woman wearing a thick wool pajamas listens to him and asks, lying on the sofa with her pet.
She brushed the cherry-colored hair sticking out of the hood of her nightgown and looked back at Mel.
If you’ve met somewhere else, it’s definitely an appearance worth looking back on.
However, just looking at it now, the appearance that seems to be advertising ‘I came out of bed’ is a bit of a pity.
Is the expression that looks are not worth using in this situation?
“If you’re that incompetent, why don’t you get rid of it? Are you disturbing?”
“I think so.”
He sighed and nodded.
The personnel transfer a while ago was not simply a matter of consideration for the incompetent guy.
It is to deliberately give them a sense of courage they cannot handle and wait for them to be destroyed.
And it’s to make a justification and cut it out rationally.
In the end, it is only the result of dealing with the failure.
“Humel, are you living a very tiring life too?”
“Blind handling of it only instills fear in other people who don’t know anything about it. I’d rather end up being despised as a failure.”
“Whoop whoop. it’s scary it’s scary It’s scary to live in this world. right?”
Contrary to what she said, however, the woman let out a light laugh and seemed to be enjoying it in anticipation.
“In that case, I’d just kill it.”
It’s pretty nasty to say otherwise than her appearance, which looks pliable and doesn’t seem to be able to step on even a single flower.
Contrary to her appearance, her mind was twisted, and it wasn’t true that she didn’t know it anymore, so Hummel decided to just ignore it.
It’s not a position to pursue in the first place.
From that woman’s point of view, it would look like you or Cherpal, that’s what it is.
“Are you really okay with this result? In the end, the bet was lost.”
“doesn’t care.”
she answered simply.
“It is most desirable to have a track record of suppressing them.
The result is enough for now. 50 points out of 1000?”
Isn’t that a failure? Humel swallows the word.
“It’s enough just to show that it’s possible to compete with the capital of the Kingdom of Ernesia.”
“Still, I hoped that the other side would use a bit of a mean method.”
She grumbled like she was sorry.
“Is that also the purpose?”
“If we show the humans of other countries how vicious they are, won’t they want to raise their hand on our side?”
Arnil Firm, to be precise, if Arel, who reigned behind the firm, had offended the branch of Delt Firm and destroyed it without any means, it would have been perfect for them to appeal to foreign figures in their viciousness and selfishness in later meetings.
Well, I still don’t get caught.
“Since ancient times, if you want to win people’s hearts, it’s best to appeal to the fearsome demon lord.”
“okay.”
Hummel agreed and decided not to question it.
But I still have to ask this.
“Rather than that, did you come all the way here like that?”
“huh? What are you doing? Is this warm?”
She shrugged, pulling on her pajama, which looked warm at first glance.
“It’s not going to be visible to anyone anyway. I just came here to listen to the pre-confirmation. You’re free to come in what you wear, right?”
“Then what is that animal?”
I barely pretended not to see this, but that is the limit.
The woman’s pet.
No, I doubt if I should call that a pet.
To be precise, it is a creature that can only be seen as a bear no matter how you look at it.
“I picked it up. in the backyard.”
“It must be the back mountain.”
However, there are no wild bears in the backyard of the castle.
Isn’t that the beast that lives in the mountain behind the castle?
Because of the quality of its fur, it was also a bear that was regularly hunted.
“Why did you pick it up?”
“I’m going to take a nap, but something lacks warmth. It just looked so soft, so I picked it up.”
“Are you going to raise it?”
“Is that so?”
For reference, the bear bites her arm to see if she doesn’t like her touch, but even though it chews her slender wrist, not a single tooth sticks out.
And when they are caught, they are unable to move, losing their dignity as wild animals and whimpering.
It’s a whim anyway.
If I get tired of it, I’ll either deal with it or throw it away.
“A bear dies and leaves a skin!”
I decided not to care because I had gotten tired of her eccentricity lately.
He already understands.
The reincarnated person said that there are many strange people
.
So how far have you heard my story?”
“Hummel, what did you say?
uh? Could it be that you did?”
Duke Hummel had to hold back his emotions for a moment when she asked her with his eyes wide open.
I didn’t hear anything at all.
“I talked. definitely talked about it. That’s pretty much it too. You haven’t heard at all, Mr. Rumelsitassa.”
“Huh? are you okay? ‘Cause I know what to do Can’t we open a conference room and talk well there? haha bother
I’m not sure if I can talk more than that. Even if it looks like this, in fact, I have failed 30 interviews in a row before.”
Do you really have the heart to do it?
In the first place, Duke Hummel is now in charge of all preparations for the meeting and all procedures.
But in the end, it’s up to her to step in.
Rumelsitasa Grenia, representative of the envoy of the Principality of Caduceus.
I was expecting it because Harial had directly assigned her to do it.
That expectation was twisted beyond imagination.
As soon as she got here, she just lay down.
Then, he just said, “I want you to take care of all the preparations!”, and he didn’t even lift a hand?
‘Is he really the second person?’
I was stunned.
Of course, he doesn’t have a good understanding of all reincarnated people.
Hummel is not a reincarnated person, but an ordinary human being.
A human who happened to be invited by Harial to join the Caduceus. in other words. is their helper.
However, even within the alliance, they are treated as allies to some extent.
You can receive equal treatment with most alliance members.
You can name an alliance and act as a member of them.
So I guess I was mistaken.
‘I guess I was a more proper person before? When I ran into her when I was invited to their city before, I had a more authentic impression.
I thought she was a flexible and smart woman.
So, this meeting was thought to be suitable for Rumelsitasa to entrust compared to other reincarnated people.
But it took less than five minutes for her to arrive and dispel the illusion.
“Are business trips really good? Because I can do other things without paying attention.”
“… … .”
You’re saying something like this
I hope it’s mine.
I missed those who could communicate with me again.
I know that there are many reincarnated people who practice eccentricities because I have watched them until I get tired of them.
Still, she passed.
Two top talents who are likely to win the slacker contest.
Even now, even though he is in charge of the job, he is smiling and doing other things.
Is there no minimum responsibility?
“Please, be motivated when listening to the explanation, right?”
“Whoop whoop. But are you not motivated at all?”
Why are you proud to say that?
“Please do that somehow.”
Now it’s gotten to the point where I’m asking for it.
But her enthusiasm was not ignited.
“I can’t. Report to Harial.. w Hummel couldn’t say anything more.
As it was, not only the mouth, but also the muscles of the whole body stiffened.
“report? Ahahaha. Is he true too? Are you saying something strange?”
She laughs, but her laughter is somehow chilly.
At some point, she took out a needle or something and threw it at Hummel’s feet.
At that moment, his entire body stiffened.
“Oh really? Is Hummel misunderstanding something? It is he who gives orders to the end. You have no right to say anything. know?”
Humel answered with only his eyes barely moving.
When Rumelsitasa snapped his fingers, the needle broke, and only then did his body regain freedom.
I almost forgot
Reincarnated people are more ferocious than beasts of prey, but even their whims are dangerous.
Rather, the bear she is petting now looks cute.
No matter how loyally this side works, no matter how much treatment is promised to them, if they go against them wrongly, they won’t be fine.
