Right now, I'm going to take a look at the surroundings. My eyes are drawn in all directions from this city. Of course, I'm interested in food, crafts, and the various weapons forms that exist. However, I have to divide my priorities because time is also limited.
"Looks like I have to buy a few things first. "
As I tried to get to the nearest shop, I reached into my trouser pocket.
Damn, I forgot. It turns out I didn't bring a penny with me.
I started to think of a solution while looking at the people transacting. Most people issue round metal coins. Some are silver. I continued by looking in the other direction; there was a weapon shop, and the person who bought the weapon there was seen taking out gold coins.
I continued walking in the other direction and found a small stall selling vegetables; some mothers bought that person's merchandise. The mothers took out purple coins.
At that time, I began to understand. The currency here is the same as in Issekai in general. Suddenly I got an idea.
I ran back to the narrow alley and ensured that no one was around me. Then, I imagined telepathy with the person I can trust right now.
"Lilith, can I ask you a favor? "
[ is it Raven sama? ]
"Do I have money? At least if I'm a noble, I should have some things I can sell to exchange for money. "
[ You don't need to do such a thing, your current deposit is 9 Billion Gold Coins, while your savings is at the combined level of the 10 kingdoms with the strongest economy. And it only covers 1% of your total wealth. ]
Lilith explained that without the slightest hesitation.
What the hell if I'm that rich. Why don't I just cash out my money in Japan, and I'll buy all the things I want while relaxing and enjoying long-term investments without working.
My mind automatically snapped out as I was delusional about all those things.
"Then I ask for 100 gold coins."
[ Alright, Raven sama. ]
Next to me, dimensional cracks began to appear. Then, a bag began to appear that fell from next to me. When I opened the contents, there were a lot of gold coins.
[ Keep in mind, Raven sama, if you intend to spend a lot of money. I am begged to go to the royal central bank. Then, withdraw your money there. I have prepared all the preparations for you. ]
"It turns out that withdrawing money from inventory is not that easy. "
I'm a little surprised; usually, doing this wouldn't impact the world system.
[that's not the case; it's just. Suppose you spend your money recklessly. There will be a decrease in the currency value in this country., then there will be inflation from the assets your issue. The money you have can even buy a whole part of the planet. So please consult me ​​if you want to do something. ]
"Eeeeeee!!!!!! Wait a minute. If I were this rich, I wouldn't have to work right. Isn't this the right time to return to earth? "
Going home and relaxing is my goal.
[ the right thing for you is to work as a hobby. If you return to earth now, this empire will be in chaos. Please refrain from going home now Raven sama ]
It seemed like Lilith was very worried about something in the future.
"You know a lot about this, Lilith; what exactly are you? "
I'm a little curious about Lilith's origins. Then, for the first time, I questioned who my subordinates were.
[ I am just, your servant. I have dedicated my life only to you alone Raven sama. ]
I felt a little doubt from her words.
"So that's it, for now, I can't know. All right, when you're ready to tell me. I would be very grateful."
I don't know why I can smile happily
[You are indeed great, finding out my true nature so quickly. But wouldn't it be easier for you to give me absolute orders to explain who I am. ]
Lilith tried to question my resolve.
"That's true, but I just want to be trusted by my men. If I force my will, it will only cause a sense of discomfort. I just don't want my subordinates to hate me. "
At that moment, Lilith was silent for a moment.
"What's wrong, Lilith? Are you okay? "
[ so I see, please forgive me. I will say goodbye if you need anything, please call me back. Then I'll excuse myself. ]
"Yes, thank you very much. "
Right after that, our telepathic connection was cut off.
If you look at it from other people's point of view, it looks like I'm talking to myself or something invisible. However, if you look at my real feelings, they look like someone precious to me. I hope they are both kawaii Onee san.
After that, I started walking out of the alley and headed toward the food vendor.
When looking up at the sky, the sun moved towards the center; it seemed that it was already noon.
Sometime later, I had already bought some food. I bought a beef satay, grilled buffalo meat, and beef tail soup. And I bought some apples and pears. I carried a fairly large paper bag.
I buy a lot of food because I've never bought this much. This is also related to this food can be used as a provision for my next trip. There's nothing to lose as long as I buy food for myself.
The atmosphere in the city seems to be getting busier, though at the moment my clothes do look a bit flashy. Imagine someone wearing a T-shirt and jeans walking in the middle of the city carrying lots of food in the Middle Ages. People would stare suspiciously at that person, who was me.
"Damn, it seems I drew too much attention; it's time to go back to the narrow alleys. "
I walked to a place where the sun wasn't shining. The atmosphere outside the main road is a bit quiet, but this atmosphere makes me a little comfortable. I kept walking while occasionally eating beef satay that I had bought.
Without realizing it, it turns out that I have entered so deep into the narrow alley of this city. The appearance of the people around me began to change; many adult men were staring intently at me. Since I'm the person who easily ignores other people, I just ignore their unpleasant stares at me.
However, one of them walked toward me. When I realized, they were already surrounding me. There are about 10 of them.
"I think this is going to be very troublesome. "
I muttered to those who were currently trying to frame me.
A guy with punk hair started talking; I guess he's the most annoying one right now.
"Are you aware of your current position, bastard? If so, quickly hand over all your valuable possessions. If you obey, we won't hurt you and let you go. "
I'm starting to think the quickest solution in this situation is to ask for help. But with the deserted area around here, it doesn't seem like it will be of any use.
"Why are you silent? Quickly hand over your money?. "
Another man shouted that loudly.
"Ano, please forgive me. It seems I have nothing to give you guys if you insist. You can ask me when you get home later. "
"In that case, I just need to snatch all the precious things you brought with you at this time. "
Everyone around me began to draw out their sharp weapons, all prepared to attack me.
So, this time. Beating them is the best option, isn't it?
The moment I started to put all my precious food down, they ran toward me.
However, suddenly there was a swift attack right above me; it paralyzed everyone who ambushed me.
"Hey, I haven't done anything yet. "
Everyone who attacked me was like being electrocuted by small needles stuck in their bodies.
I began to realize something and immediately turned my gaze upwards.
There, I began to see the figure of a beautiful woman wearing a noble dress that was quite different from the Middle Ages. She has blue hair and fiery red eyes. It seemed as if she had found what she had been looking for from her gaze. But this is just my assumption.
She immediately jumped down and headed toward me.
"Are you hurt? "
She asked me that.
"I'm fine, other than that. I thank you for your help. "
I bowed my head to her.
"It's nothing. Even so, you have changed so much. "
I stared at her; she seemed to keep looking at my appearance. Of course, I was considered a strange person by her.
"Sorry to interrupt you, but have we met before? "
There's no way I'd know a woman as beautiful as this person; it's impossible for me to even get close to her.
"Eh, you still don't recognize me? You are so cruel, Raven chan."
The beautiful woman looks depressed while sitting with her back to me for some reason.
"Please forgive me; I'm still new here. Maybe it just happens that my face looks like someone you know. Wait a minute; you know my name?."
Even though we haven't met yet, how did that happen?
"You are the person I've been waiting for. Yes, I do know you. If you want to know, you must come with me now. "
She also let out a mischievous smile as if pulling her prey into her trap.
"Okay then, I'll follow you. Let's just say I owe you one. "
