Chapter 81: Reunion with Yukurishisu-san

Chapter 81: Reunion with Yukurishisu-san

“How about this ring here? It's got a cave-domestically jewel!” Store owner

“Master, this jewel is colored glass. It's definitely not a jewel.” Nichrome

“You don't need to see such a phony guy's shop! Look, this is a real jewel of the cave country!” Shop owner 2

“You just painted the metal balls thinly. It's a waste of time to clarify it to this point. From the real one, it's far away.” Nichrome

Shop owners showed their products, but Nichrome slashed them into pieces. There really were a lot of fakes…...it's been like this for a while now.

“You, are you stingy with my shop!?” Shop owner 1

“Don't only say what you want, show me the evidence, evidence!” Shop owner 2

“Shall I shut them down? " Nichrome

“In a peaceful way.” Tsuchio

“Good. If you say that it is a jewel, let's ask an appropriate person to appraise it. If it was a genuine jewel, we will pay money and apology. Master, is that okay? " Nichrome

“Well, I don't think that Nichrome's eyes are wrong. Therefore I don't mind." Tsuchio

“So, let's go.” Nichrome

“Well, there's no need to do that! It is troublesome to call all the trouble." Shop owner 1

“Thats right! We don't need to wait for an appraiser, because I think I will sell few!” Shop owner 2

What do I hear, the shopkeepers stand up. It's a hassle...but it's all right in here.

“Nichrome, that's enough. I can't just call an appraiser in a few minutes... " Tsuchio

“That's not necessary." Blond woman

A blonde woman takes the ring from the owner's hand, before she threw it back at once.

“You sell something like that as a jewel. I am amazed at your acting." Blond girl

“I don't know what you are saying!" Shop owner 1

“Real gems are something like this." blond girl

The woman takes out a ring from her bosom. The ring had a small transparent ivy gem.

“The size is small but it is a revitalized gem. Why don't you see it for yourself?” Blond girl

“Checking the magical wavelength, there is no mistake that it's a jewel.” Nichrome

“All the jewels on these rings and necklaces sold on this stall are fake. Well, they are cheap and you can use it as a decoration, so isn't it a good match?” Blond girl

People around me who were watching the exchange seemed to have bought goods from this stall. They complained to the shop owners one after another and demanded their money back. Well, they were deceived, so it cannot be helped. Those fakes are only used for looking good and nothing more. More than that......

“Good grief......in every country, there are dishonest merchants.” Yukurishisu

“I agree. Welcome back Yukurishisu-san, it's the first time in a year." Tsuchio

“It's been a while, Tsuchio. I'm sorry for not contacting you.” Yukurishisu

Yukurishisu-san whom I met for the first time in a year doesn't seem really different now.

“Okay, shall we sit somewhere? Certainly there was a square on the north side.” Tsuchio

“Yes, I have a companion with me, therefore go ahead until I come along with him.” Yukurishisu

“I understand." Tsuchio

That said, Yukurishisu went into the crowd. Yukurishisu was fine...what a relief. Let's listen to why she couldn't contact me later.

“I told you that you can't buy juice! " Yukurishisu

I hear Yukurishisu-san’s cry from afar. Did someone else do something?

I bought suitable amounts of drinks for the number of people present and sat on the bench that was in the square. Yukurishisu-san arrived after a few minutes with a man who had a large amount of food in his arms. Dog ears and tail...he seems to be a beastman.

“Thank you for waiting. Wo-kun, this is Tsuchio. The people around him are his familiars.” Yukurishisu

“Nice to meet you, I'm Zakurion Empire’s chief butler Warodonis. I'm also taking care of Milady. Because the name is long, please call me Wo.” Wo-kun

"You’re very polite.... I am third year academy student Tsuchio. They are my familiars, from the right Ruu, Lime, Rin and Nichrome. Another one is my shadow who is also a demon. Because the name hasn't been decided yet, please call her Shadow-san. Oh, please have a drink.“ Tsuchio

“Thank you very much.” Wo-kun

Yukurishisu sits on the bench, while I give drinks to everyone. Wo-san is still standing.

“Well then again, I'm sorry for letting you wait for one year while saying that I will contact you as soon as the rebellion succeeded.” Yukurishisu

“That's true...don't worry about it so much. Even though I tried to contact you from here as well, the magic tools wouldn't connect.... Did the rebellion succeed?" Tsuchio

“Yeah, the damage was kept to a minimum. The reason I couldn't contact you until now was that the magic tool was broken during the fight with my elder brother.” Yukurishisu

“The former emperor?” Tsuchio

“My chest was pierced with a sword, but thanks to the magic tool, the wound was so shallow. That magic tool is a lifesaver for me now.” Yukurishisu

“That's a good choice.... Anyway, Yukurishisu-san is safe and fine. So, are you the reigning empress now?” Tsuchio

“That's right. My eyes were about to turn around because I was too busy, but a lot of fuss has happened just because of the ceasefire." Yukurishisu

“Is it so? Even here, it seems that there were various things during the ceasefire. In this case, are human-demon interactions a dream again?” Tsuchio

“I wish I could have an exchange as long as Tsuchio and I are alive. Well, for now, let's rejoice that we've been able to make peace.” Tsuchio

Briefly, I bumped my drink with Yukurishisu to make a toast. In short, it is a coincidence that I could be reunited with Yukurishisu in the royal capital like this.

“Why did Yukurishisu-san come to the capital today? Do you have any business?” Tsuchio

“Yes, I came to see you, Tsuchio. Because the magic tool broke, I only had the option to meet you to communicate safely." Yukurishisu

“To see me, here at the royal capital...very lucky” Tsuchio

“That's true. Honestly, I was thinking of going to the academy and leaving a message. " Yukurishisu

“So... what are you going to do after this, Yukurishisu?” Tsuchio

“For now, I have achieved the purpose of contacting you and I think I will return back soon. Even though I'm taking a day off, I still have tons of work to do." Yukurishisu

“I see. Well, after all, an empress must work hard." Tsuchio

As an empress, she needs to carry all the people underneath. After all, if she was ordinary, then she wouldn't be able to bear it though it isn't bad. She truly is a princess....

“What was Tsuchio doing at the stall? It's not like I'm ridiculing you." Yukurishisu

“I was looking for ornaments that seemed to match my familiars. I have been to the royal city several times, but I have never went sightseeing." Tsuchio

“Then I will help you! That's why Tsuchio seems to be sparse." Yukurishisu

“Oh, I appreciate it, but this time I want to choose it myself. I'll just receive your gratitude." Tsuchio

“Alright...then, can I join you on your shopping trip? I am curious to see what Tsuchio will choose." Yukurishisu

Muu, I'm embarrassed to expect that, but...I can only choose the ones that look normal.

“Oh, Nichrome, did you find out anything? It seems you were searching all this time..." Tsuchio

“No, so far there are only normal items or fakes. If I find some rarities, I'll let you know immediately." Nichrome

“Then, the break is over soon. Shall we go looking again? I will return the drinks now." Tsuchio

“Oh, how much is that? We pay for ours." Yukurishisu

“It's okay, I will treat you. It's not too expensive." Tsuchio

I didn't know what to buy for any of them. Anyways, just looking at the design won't be enough.

I returned to the street stall again and ransacked whether things which seemed to be good were sold. Well... is this for Ruu?

“Look, this choker. There is a cross in the middle and it is stylish, because of its red and white color.” Nichrome

“Sounds good. Ruu′s neck is bare, so won't it be a good feeling?" Tsuchio

“Especially, it isn't a strange place and only has ordinary ornaments." Nichrome

“May I try a little?" Ruu

“That's okay.” Shop owner

After asking the shop owner, Ruu puts the choker on her neck. I think the red and white choker with the cross perfectly matches Ruu′s hair and clothes.

“So, Tsuchio...how is it?” Ruu

Ruu holds up her hair and shows me her neck with the choker. Somehow, its strangely erotic....

“It looks good, I think.” Tsuchio

“You look nice, older sister." Lime

“From the balance and color, I can judge that it fits Ruu" Nichrome

“So? Well then, let's do it like this. This is a collar, right? That’s what is it right ?..."

Like that? What do you mean? Well whatever, if Ruu is OK with this. Besides...there is nothing else. Well then....

“I′m sorry, I want this."

“Eh?”

“Should I just wear it like that?"

“Just wear it like that. How much is it?"

I paid the price of the choker and followed the stall. Ruu′s face was puzzled.

“Tsuchio, you're just looking at the ornaments, right? You have to buy it or you can make it yourself..." Ruu

“Hmm, I see.... Well, I'd like to give Ruu something. It is for my self satisfaction." Tsuchio 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

“Isn't it good? Even for my own reason, everyone can be satisfied." Ruu

“Thank you very much. Because of that, I hope you'll receive it." Tsuchio

“Yes, I am happy. You can’t only choose and take it until you bought it..." Ruu

“...Father is sweet to elder sister as usual. Uhuhuhu, I'm jealous..." Lime

“I will also buy something for Lime. But, what would be good?” Tsuchio

After that, I searched the stalls and bought accessories that would suit everyone. For Lime, I bought a purple silver ring and because Rin couldn't wear a ring normally, I attached it on her horn like a bracelet. It is a blue one that has a geometric pattern drawn and it fits to her body. It's more dignified than that...in a sense, it's exactly like a street name.

Nichrome got a round ring with a necklace, a silver chain and a golden ring. It was sure enough, but I pressed it on her to keep it for now. "There will be no opportunity to use it," she said, because she is a lacertid. I wonder if she will wear it in the future....

It might not be attached, but I bought also something for Shadow-san properly. It's a simple silver ring like Lime′s ring, but I don't know what it will look like, so I kept it for now. I thought that silver was okay for Shadow-san, but it seems there is no problem. Shadow-san doesn't show much emotion, but she seems glad I bought it. I want her to become a human so that she can wear that ring properly.

“Well then, we're leaving here. I'll give you this." Yukurishisu

In the evening, when Yukurishisu is about to return to the empire, she handed out the same communication magic tool as the one I got before. So, should I return the other one?

“Are you sure?" Tsuchio

“It's all right. An emperor is the one who gathers various depressions. I'd like to hear you complaining sometimes." Yukurishisu

“I will be glad to hear your voice. Well then, I will give back what I got last time." Tsuchio

After returning the previous magic tool, I was taken to the side a bit away, because Wo-san wanted to talk to me alone for some reason. Does he have any business?

“Whats wrong, Wo-san?” Tsuchio ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣o𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

“Nothing...Tsuchio-sama, I want to ask you a few things. It's about Milady.” Wo-kun

“What is with Yukurishisu-san?” Tsuchio

“It's not a problem...but the princess is a royalty and there are only a few friends. From now on, I want her to make friends." Wo-kun

“...Of course. I can only do it if I hear the story." Tsuchio

“Even so, it's okay. There is a limited number of people who Milady can consult to. From now on, we two will have a long lasting relationship with Milady." Wo-kun

I think that this is a true servant. Yukurishisu can be happy having such a person serving her.

“Wo-kun, stop talking alone with him!? I'm going home!" Yukurishisu

“Alright, I'm going now! Well then, take care of yourself." Wo-kun

“Wo-san, please support Yukurishisu-san." Tsuchio

Yukurishisu-san put her hand on Wo-san′s shoulder and began preparing for transfer magic. They had just come this morning, but they are already going home. She seems really busy.

“I'll see you again soon. The next time we meet, I’ll show you the empire." Yukurishisu

“Well, I'm looking forward to it." Tsuchio

“I plan to meet your expectations. That's it!” Yukurishisu

A black mist covered Yukurishisu′s body and flew to the sky. Huu, I'm glad she was able to become the empress safely. The next summer vacation is likely to include a plan to travel to the empire.
