Three months later… (Half a year since parting with the duke and his family)
It’s been so peaceful lately~…
The ruffians have mostly stopped attacking. Most likely, it’s because more and more of their employers are being arrested. Without anyone to hire them, the ruffians won’t have a reason to come.
Speaking of which, some of the arrested employers happen to be merchants. Apparently, because I’m a newcomer, some of them wanted to destroy my store to threaten me, and get me to join them so as to gain the secret behind my business. But because of that, the merchant guild found a reason to investigate their stores. As it turns out, they’ve apparently done the same thing to many other stores. Moreover, there are those amongst them who apparently have a connection with the dark guild. That news really shook Gimuru, and even caused unrest for some time. You might not think so, but several companies actually ended up being closed. So now, the guild’s started to investigate even the branches and the main stores in the other towns. This case has really turned into a big one.
Fortunately though, the merchant guild covered for the affected stores and the people who’ve contracted with them, preventing anything too big from occurring.
To give an example, amongst those who’ve sent a thug to my store is the owner of a pharmacy who wanted to know how I made my deodorizing liquid. That storeowner seems to have been getting his medicine from an exclusively contracted chemist. But because of the recent case, that storeowner’s been arrested and his store, closed, causing the chemists to be unable to conduct their wholesaling business. And now, they’re jobless. But the guild master gave them some appropriate positions such as the ones in a wholesale store, and like that they managed to find a new job.
Amongst those workplaces that the guild provided is Serge-san’s Morgan Firm. After all, Serge-san’s store also sells medicine, so they had some room to hire some new employees.
Incidentally, the Morgan Firm was mixed up in the confusion of this case’s uproar, and the firm managed to take the customers of the now closed store, greatly increasing their profits. After all, one of the stores that were closed were one of the rival stores of the Morgan Firm. The guild master said so herself, so there’s definitely no mistaking it.
Going back to the main topic…
There hasn’t been any problems lately, but in exchange, the number of cleaning stores that have opened recently in an attempt to imitate me has increased. Unfortunately for them though, their rate of mixing up the laundry and tearing it up is quite high. They’re not able to wash away the dirt from the laundry that well either, so in the end they couldn’t get a lot of customers. And even when the stores do manage to do a good job, because they’re using human employees, they are unable to keep up with the salary, resulting in them barely making any profits. As a result, the branches tend to close quite frequently. But that’s not my store’s fault, so no problems came out of it.
The disturbances in the store have mostly stopped in this regard, but in a place I don’t know, I’ve apparently begun to stir new trouble.
This is actually something I heard about since coming back from Renauph, but apparently Matthew stormed the merchant guild and demanded that the tamer guild be responsible for my store.
At the start, Matthew wasn’t shouting or yelling, but because the guild master told him to cut his explanation short, he got mad at the guild master, and the few words he yelled was condensed.
Matthew’s few words were hard to understand, so when he asked for a detailed explanation from the guild master, he was only given the main points.
There are other merchants like me in the merchant guild who use slave magic. Such people often transport goods by land or peddle to dangerous places. People like those and myself are somewhat in-between being a slave magic user and a merchant, but because we’re doing business, we should still be under the jurisdiction of the merchant guild. And normally, the tamer guild shouldn’t try to interject in such cases.
But of course there are exceptions, such as when the slave magic user’s slave monsters go out of control or on a rampage. It’s dangerous when magical beasts aren’t handled properly, so disciplinary actions in regards to second hand offenses and recurring problems need to be handled swiftly, but those cases are rare. Moreover those cases are limited to when slave magic users are the cause of the problem or when the merchant guild itself is the one who requested the tamer guild’s help.
But then in that case, I haven’t even caused any problems once, and I haven’t failed any jobs from the tamer guild either. Although to begin with, I haven’t actually taken any jobs from the tamer guild. With no scandals to use, Matthew tried to force the issue by using my young age and my supposedly half-baked knowledge regarding slave magic, since it was only learned from my grandmother, as a reason to get me under the jurisdiction of the tamer guild. At the same time, he pestered the guild master with some shameless lie about how they need to take the future of young slave magic users into consideration or something.
“It’s imperative that talented, young slave magic users receive appropriate guidance.” [Matthew]
“Regardless how excellent a child is, there’re bound to be problems with his management of magical beasts. And that’s precisely why our tamer guild should guide them.” [Matthew]
Or something like that.
Of course, the guild master just rejected that. But Matthew wouldn’t give up, and he tried everything he could to try to butter up to the guild master as he proposed the same thing over and over.
“Doesn’t this mean that Matthew’s somehow involved with the disturbances?” is what I thought. But then it doesn’t seem to make sense for him to talk directly to the guild master like this… Moreover, I don’t really have any evidence that he employed the ruffians, but it is true that he’s been somewhat troublesome. Still though, why is he being this direct? Doesn’t he know that the guild master is my ally? Or is he really unrelated to the ruffians?
No matter how much I thought about it, I just couldn’t seem to grasp what Matthew’ was thinking, so I figured I’d just leave this to the guild master.
The guild master said that as long as she kept rejecting the requests, eventually Matthew will give up. But when she said that, a terrifying smile surfaced on her face. Most likely since Matthew’s charade isn’t hurting her in anyway, she plans to stay like this until he makes his move. But then at that time she’ll be dealing with him thoroughly.
