Our carriage passes through the Noble street, and then goes back toward the mansion with Zena Squad as guards.
Today we went around tea parties until the evening.
I couldn't exactly bring Arisa and Mia to the tea parties, so I let them join Liza and the others in the labyrinth with Unit Arrangement.
Lulu had cooked some freshly caught ingredients, but since I had to eat various things in the tea parties, I left after only tasting Lulu's superb dishes.
The afternoon tea parties were all with upper nobles, so preparing the gifts for them was troublesome.
I have to alter the gifts in accordance to each of their positions, so balancing it was difficult.
I went around attending tea parties with Zena Squad as the guards, and got to hear various rumor.
The prime minister who also holds the position of minister of the newly established [Tourism Ministry] seems to be having a dispute for the position of vice minister.
Many capable nobles of pedigree are running for it, but it seems the prime minister isn't agreeing.
The ominous word, "Pass", of the prime minister from my luncheon with him floats in my mind hard.
....It's alright.
With that many candidates running for it, there should be one who can win the prime minister's favor, no doubt.
As for the other rumor I've heard, it was about the decreasing trend of thievery that started with orbs theft.
I also heard that the noble victims were able to get their family heirlooms back through Echigoya Firm.
It's probably about the connection-making that the Manager talked about.
As always she acts fast, how reliable.
After the tea parties were over, I met the children in the labyrinth, and received countless magic cores and every kind of materials.
"An Ice Stone huh, you got some unusual thing."
"Un? That was from a POP-ed treasure chest. It was in the chest with the 『Bell』 over there."
I check the hand bell that Arisa points at.
This bell is a magic tool called [Magic Sealing Bell], it seems to have the power to repel possessing ghosts.
Although I don't know how effective it is, it's quite an interesting item.
