Chapter 27

「Well then Dennis . I’m counting on you as the salesperson . Pass the soap, and get the fee . It’s easy for an intellectual like you, right?」

Haruto says to Dennis . Dennis deeply sighs .

「Haa, it can’t be helped . Just a little bit of patience . Really, why does an intelligent person like me has to work underpaid as a salesperson……」

Although Dennis grumbled, he headed to the shop’s counter . He seems to be unmotivated . Haruto went out to secure talent with confidence .

_____

For the time being, Haruto headed for Undine for the rest of the remaining talent . It’s because Hannah said that she’d consult with Marceau .

「Hi there . Marceau-san」

Haruto spoke to Marceau . Marceau returned it while smiling .

「Hello . Asuma-san . About the personnel, there are two of my regular customers who recently lost their jobs . If those people are okay……」

「Thank you very much for this . What kind of person are they?」

When he heard Haruto says so, Marceau muddled his words .

「E~tto, if you meet them, you’ll understand . Asuma-san, please don’t discriminate if you hire them . They’re good people at their core . They’ll always be here at this hour」

Haruto doesn’t really care as long as they’re talented and loyal . Marceau’s way of saying it makes them seem like a weirdo, but he can be tolerant to some degree .

Haruto sat on the table and decided to wait . After a while, two large male(?) appeared .

「Hello . Marceau-san, can I ask for the usual?」

「Mine also, the usual . I can’t find a job at all」

There was an okama .

_____

「This little boy invented that soap? That’s amazing!」

「I’m always using it!」

「This is……thank you very much」

Three people decided to take a seat . He’s not asking, but there’s alcohol being given to him . Haruto says after drinking the given alcohol .

「By the way, your names are?」

「I’m Allen Ash」

「I’m Ellen Ash」

Their faces were very similar . Probably twins .

(Even so, are all okamas machos?)

Haruto looks at the two people’s bodies while thinking so . Both of them have great muscles . They would be excellent as manual laborers .

「Don’t look with such passionate eyes」

Allen said while wriggling that body . A cold shiver runs up Haruto’s spine .

「So that’s why were you fired?」

As Haruto says so, they vigorously nodded .

「That’s right . Because I disturb the harmony of the workplace . Isn’t that terrible?」

「That’s right . It’s awful to get fired just because we’re okamas」

When you listen to the story, it seems that they’ve been fired seven times just for being an okama .

「So would you like to become an employee of my company?」

Haruto cut to the main point . In Haruto’s mind, it’s okay to be an okama as long as it does not interfere with the business .

「Is that all right? We are okamas you know?」

「Eh . I don’t mind . Instead, it’s good that you’re powerful」

If there is such a presence, they’ll be able to rein in the second-class workers . At the very least, they won’t resist them .

「Well then, thank you very much」

Two people lower their heads to Haruto . Haruto quickly took out the contract and signed it .

「Then, I will introduce you to the other employees, so in the evening, please come to the store . Your job starts tomorrow」

Haruto stood up after saying that .

______

「That’s why the Ash brothers will become our new employees」

Haruto introduced the two people to Roa and the others .

「Nice to meet you . I’m the older sister, Allen Ash」

「I am the younger sister, Ellen Ash」

The two people made a polite bow .

「Are the Okamas next after the NEET……I am somewhat worried」

「Nice to meet you . I am Rusk」

「Nice to meet you! I’m Pudding . Even so, you both have incredible muscles!! Are you former mercenaries?」

「It’s getting lively!!」

「Ha~, why did I get a job in such a place?」

Five people said so .

「By the way, you’re wearing pretty clothes . Where did you get it?」

Allen talked to Roa .

「This? This is handmade……」

Recently, Roa has come to learn how to handmake maid clothes . Although she said homemade, it’s just rearranging ready-made goods .

「That’s amazing!!」

「That’s amazing!!」

「That’s not true . I’m only modifying the clothes that I bought . ……Do you want me to also make your clothes?」

As Roa says so, Allen put his hands together .

「Such a thing! Can you?」

「Eh . If you could tell me the material cost and what kind of clothing you’d like to make」

Allen holds Roa’s hands .

「Thank you!!」

「No, that kind of thing……it hurts . Please don’t swing my hands!!」

Roa screamed .

Ellen was stuck to Dennis .

「You look pretty cool . And you also seem smart」

「I don’t look that good . I’m only okay . I graduated from university」

When Dennis says proudly, Ellen grips Dennis’ hands .

「That’s amazing! I love intelligent men . Won’t you date with me next time?」

「N-no, I have to say no this time……uwa~, go away!!」

Dennis runs away from Ellen . Ellen chases after him .

「Un . They’re getting along well」

「「Help me!!」」

Roa and Dennis’ screams sounded out .

_____

「Well, it’s been a week since we hired……how do you feel about Dennis and the Ash brothers?」

Roa answered Haruto’s question .

「Dennis is somehow doing a proper job . He can be promoted soon if nothing happens . He has a good head and good at filing documents . I have not taught him about any money-related matters since I still don’t know his personality……but he looks to be okay」

Roa says so and dranks tea, continuing to talk .

「As for the Ash brothers……they are self-proclaimed sisters . They work hard . The children seem surprised at first, but now they’re familiar with them . Although I was worried at hearing that they got fired seven times, there’s no problem with their abilities . They’re also strong and very reliable」

Haruto is relieved at hearing Roa’s report .

「I see . With this, we can collect second-class citizens . Let’s sell the new soaps when the Samaras Chamber of Commerce opens their shop in May . Looking at the modified soaps, something seemed to go wrong with the milk soap」

Haruto said that while drinking some tea .

「By the way, Haruto-san!!」

Roa interrupted Haruto .

「What?」

「It’s a holiday today, isn’t it? There’s no plan scheduled, right?」

「What?」

「It’s a holiday today, isn’t it? There’s no plan scheduled, right?」

「There’s nothing but……what’s the matter?」

When she heard Haruto say so, Roa took out two sheets of paper .

「It’s tickets for a puppet show . Why don’t we go now?」

「Recently, didn’t we just go to the jewelry exhibition?」

When Haruto says so, Roa inflated her cheeks .

「At that time, there was Aisha-san who’s disturbing us . Let’s go out, just us two, once in a while」

Indeed, there’s less time between Roa and him these days . Because she was busy doing accounting at night, they can’t do much else . He doesn’t know what the puppet show is about, but it might be nice to go for a change .

「You’re right . Shall we go」

「Hurray!!」

Roa smiled happily .

_____

「Don’t be afraid!! It’s just an animal after all! Make way, shoot the soldiers riding on top!! Infantry, slash the tendons of the animals!!」

The Emperor Anders I puppet yells . The soldier dolls moved as instructed, the soldiers defeating the elephants one after another .

「Na~, didn’t Emperor Anders I try to invade Claris? Will the customers even come to this puppet theater?」

Haruto asked Roa in a low voice . Roa also answered in a whisper .

「No, Emperor Anders I did not loot Claris . After all, when they were invaded by Emperor Anders I, Claris was rapidly developed . Some people appreciate it, but no one hates it」

「He~」

When he looked again at the puppet show, Emperor Anders I is fighting with the army general . The movements are surprisingly delicate . He can’t see anyone manipulating the doll, and he can’t see any threads . In Haruto’s eyes, the puppets seem to be moving automatically .

Haruto made sure that the fight was over before asking Roa .

「How does it work?」

「It’s Resonance Magic . There are two dolls, A and B . It’s a magic that when doll B’s hand is raised, doll A’s hand will also rise」

「That’s fantastic magic . It seems convenient if you could bring that technology in real life……」

As Haruto says so, Roa shook her head .

「It’s not such a convenient thing . To make such sophisticated movements, it’s not good if it’s not within 10 meters。Beyond that, the actions will be rougher . Because of that, Resonance is problematic magic . That’s why a resonance magic tool is costly . One million Doria for one . In actually, others are manipulating the threads of the Anders and enemy general puppets」

「I see . There are various drawbacks」

The magic of this world is surprisingly not a big deal . At least among the ones Haruto has seen . It can be substituted with Japan’s modern knowledge . Sometimes, the primitive way is even cheaper than using a magical tool in the first place .

「But I don’t get why the Empire is considered a magically advance country? That country is doing some sort of magic research . Perhaps they might create some amazing things」

Roa smiled happily .

「It was fun!!」

「Ma~, you’re right」

It was quite an exciting war record . He could thoroughly enjoy it even when Haruto is not familiar with the history of this world .

「Do you like war chronicles?」

Roa heard Haruto say so, and she nods .

「I love history in general rather than the military . I particularly like Emperor Anders I」

Roa began to talk about the history of the Empire . Haruto heard about names of people he doesn’t know, that person and this person did this thing . Haruto listened to Roa’s story .

While talking, they’ve arrived at the store .

「Roa」

Haruto talked over Roa’s voice .

「Haruto-san?」

Roa has a puzzled expression . Haruto had a little laugh, he kissed Roa’s lips .

「!?」

Roa is surprised, her eyes wide open . Her face also turned red .

Haruto, after 10 seconds, released her lips .

「Ja~, shall we return to our everyday life」

Roa quietly nodded .
