14-11 The Territory of Marquis Ganika

Satou's here There is an unexpectedly large aet overlooked until the fall

◇

"Dried fish~?"

"They're aall fish nanodesu"

I brought Taes in Marquis Ganika's territory

We cae to search for fish as presents for people who live in the ions

This territory of Marquis Ganika is in the middle of the air lane that connects the Royal Capital and the territory of Duke Oyugock, it's an elongated shaped territory that mostly faces the sea

"Merchant-sama, would you buy our product nya?"

When alking along the dried fish racks toward the place where there was a lot of people, a girl with strange end word talked to me

She's a catkin like Tama Unlike Tama, her hair and eyes look bad, but it doesn't see to correct her that I' heralone

"You really saveda whole lot of fish for a half of month, we couldn't eat them all, so we had to turn them into dried fish nya Yet the usual etting a good haul, the price has fallen', they were reluctant to buy the nya"

When I asked about the dried fish's price, it was bizarrely cheap at only 5 of the price in the Royal Capital, so I bought a lot as recoe, catkins and gillkins people with big builds carry the baggage one after another when the girl orders the to buy the dried fish nya? We also have dried abalones and beautiful shell cratfs you nyaow?"

The shrewd catkin girl tried to sell some expensive products

The shell crafts' craftsood, but since I heard that they were the handiworks of s and girls from poor houses, I decided to buy them all as they weren't that much anyway

I can just sell theoya Firillkin caht a basketful of theht one, more fishermen came to me one after another to try to sell their fish

It see haul is true

"Octopus~?"

"The octopus outside the labyrinth are s the seafood tilted their heads in puzzleeon Octopus that arein the labyrinth

Even those are sh

While having that exchange, Taic bags

"Work~ work~"

"Pochi ork hard too nodesu"

"Magic bag nya! As expected of a great irl made a fuss when she saw that

There were s in the Royal Capital, but there's probably no peddlers going around fishing villages who have one, no wonder it's rare

Then, a catkin oldworn-out clothes appeared

Perhaps it's justpeople's eyes are steep

"Hearhaul is an o! We have to abandon the seaside and run away to thethe at at the sea

I tried searching the seacalled undersea people Of course, I've also searched the seas outside the territory

There was a lot of nored it

"Beht now nya Talk your nonsense to your pet dog in your house nya"

Once the catkin girl did that, the villagers around also sneered at the old irl to settle the payers' interest from the old man to me

"Excuse me, how'd you like to be paid, with cash or jewels?"

"Of course cash nya! It'd be good if it's in copper coins so we can distribute it to everyone nya"

Even though we bought sothings with gold coins so far, so this feels strange

The villagers who saw the piled up copper coinsa feast today!"

We were invited too, but since we needed to prepare the lunch, we refused

The thing that the old ht my interest so I moved to the [Return Teleport] point outside the territory of Marquis Ganika and re-executed [All Map Exploration], but there was no new information besides the fact that there was an outbreak of monsters called Sea Orc that I saw for the first time in the botto called 'deep sea' even though they're living in the continental shelf is a bit wrong, but I shouldn't , I pull one of the Sea Orcs with spacewith fins as their limbs, and there's a swordfish-like horn on their forehead Their average level is level 3, they're extremely weak It seeoblins

There is a lot of them, but since they're so weak that the monsters in the sea could traround what's with the sea several kilo ht, there's no way that a world crisis will always be around the corner

"Welcoot back to the sreeted h this ship can be left unmanned, I let brownies ish for it to handle the ship during the norht unifor those brownies, he's doing his duty while wearing handht uniform

Moreover, it seems he likes to steer the ship with the wheel on the upper deck that's exposed to the strong wind and sunlight instead of the one in the bridge

Once the brownie got back to the steering wheel, I turned on the anti-wind e, and began to check the inforot fro territory that's endoith 1000 kilo from the east to the west, there's only a few inhabitable area as it has four cities, seven towns and es around them

There are inlets protected with barrier pillars every 40-50 kilo, they're used as evacuation sites for ships that are cruising on the coast

It see these inlets are the source of inco at the es in the territory are located along these safe inlets

Looking things with the Senrigan (Extra Clairvoyance) e earlier, but it's a coes and towns in the territory

This [Senrigan (Extra Clairvoyance)] is an advanced version of [Clairvoyance] ic, I can viehere on the h Telephone er, do you know about the big haul phenomenon in the territory of Marquis Ganika?"

『--Yes, we are aware of it We have received reports pertaining it from the branch offices in the marquis territory』

Tifaliza who heard about it fro to the report, the haul is 20 better than the last year

"It see even ests"

『Should we instruct the branch offices to buythat can be preserved dry, then you can buy as her priced than the conventional lad that she's quick to handle things, but I feel a bit lonely that she doesn't ask about the reason or the storage site

The preserved foods that we'll buy can be featured on the branch offices in the inland

◇

The airship that's arrived in the capital of Marquis Ganika's territory is met by the next marquis and the chief nobles

This is probably because I'm accompanied by Princess Shistina

Since this is our first city, I'd have liked to tour it with everyone, but we had to participate in the tea party sponsored by the ave the usual snack sets and lassworks as the souvenirs

Since Marquis Ganika is a sailor, I had prepared a glassworkcaravel ship

It was not hard to do since I only iht it'd probably look better than solasswork even in Oyugock Dukedom Wonderful! Truly a wonderful ite back our heirlooon Wand"

It seems Marquis Ganika really liked it, he told a joke thatto the tourist book, the Sea King Five-Pronged Spear that hethe widely distributed sea-type ainst them, so it's an indispensable iteic wand that acts as auxiliary for water ic [Divine Tidal Wave]

There's no ic in the territory of Marquis Ganika but there's a lot of local waterin the territory

"--Dear?"

"It's a joke of course I will give hter to the Viscount"

"Your excellency, if you joke tooyou know?"

"Princess Shistina is well-inforhness--"

I was hesitant what to say back to the marquis as reminded by his first wife, but as usual the princess dealt with it before I could talk

The 'you guys' that the hters of his relatives who are in this place

"Viscount-sahness, what kind of music is in fad in the royal capital?"

"Sera-sama, I will enter the temple apprenticeship next year Would you tell overne of questions like surging waves

Most of the the princess but since the princess has no interest in et to irl looks so happy, but there's one with a gloohter, but his niece, a daughter of an earl

She's 15 year old, her physique is good and her shoulder-length hair leaves a lively iic], [Ship Handling], and [Etiquette]

"Nereina-sa?"

"No, they're wonderful sweets that I've never tasted before"

I tried to talk with the earl's daughter in question, but since her nuance felt like she was annoyed, I stopped trying to talk with her in the tea party

◇

After the banquet, I've got to enjoy soed by the upper nobles in a salon that's separated by gender It seems there's a lot of heavy drinker nobles in this territory

When I was sobering up on the balcony while feeling the wind, my Attentive Ears skill picked up a conversation between to to attack from the bottom of the sea?"
