KAORU CHAPTER 80: FUJI IS THE NUMBER ONE MOUNTAIN OF JAPAN
Anyway, I must deal with the queue.
ăEveryone, there is no medicine for the moment!
First of all, I will check the situation, and then I will consider how I can manage it. So please return for today!ă(Kaoru)
Were they convinced that I could deal with it even though the medicine business was shut down days ago?
As expected, the line collapsed and everyone began to return.
But, for everyone to come to my place, itâs must be a serious disease.
However, more than dozens of people havenât yet returned and they keep lined up.
ăOh, the medicine has yetâŚă(Kaoru)
ăWe came to buy lunch boxă(Customer)
The lunch box sale was deal quickly to the lined people.
And then, I close the door, lower the wooden window, the curtain again and put out the tag ăTemporary close for todayă
And we all had a meeting.
Members: I, the 2 shopkeepers of drugstores, Riette-chan who came down from the second floor to noticed a fuss about the truth, Emil, Bell.
The two of them just cancel their work at the guild today and stay at home.
Roland and Francette appeared unnoticed.
Itâs ăAll Star Castă (In EN)
Ah, we are still lacking Edâs group.
ăTell me the outline of the emergencyă(Kaoru)
To my request, the shop owner explained the details.
According to him, the disease occurred in the village to the east of the capital.
Because of its strong infectious nature, the kingdom immediately shut down the village, prohibited people from entering and exiting.
But a few days later, the number of patients increased and the disease expanded rapidly in the capital.
ăAt first, to avoid confusion, it seems that the information was suppressed. Both the illness and the closure of the village.
Or rather, thereâs no official announcement.
However, because they stop the information from leaking.
Therefore, the kingdom canât carry out any countermeasure in the public.
And we, the drug store owners, have to find a way to deal with this epidemic without cooperation from othersă(Good Drugstore owner)
What is the country doingâŚ
Even though the initial movement is really important for such things.
ăItâs a pity, is the royal family of this country that incompatible?ă(Roland)
Rolandâs words are also bitter.
Perhaps, because he is already royalty, he canât tolerate it.
If the country does something wrong, there will be a lot of dead (Mass killing)
However, if everyone drinks the panacea made by me, they wonât be affected by the disease.
Waiting until the violent epidemic is gone or simply moving to another country.
Our store was just renting rather than buying, I have enough funds to be able to move at any time.
Put all the interior items purchased in the item box.
Then I will be able to open a store soon in the next town.
âŚBut (on 1 side) abandoning our regulars and everyone?
(another side) Identity and status are revealed? Superiority?
If that happens, I can run away again!
I will live as I like in this world.
I do hold back, but I will not endure it.
I reflect on my mistake, but I will not regret!
ăSorry, everyone, we are going to take a trip againă(Kaoru)
ă⌠Finally, the current setting was a little bit hardâŚă(Francette)
Roland bitter smiles to the words of Francette.
ăăWe will always do as your willăă(Emil + Bell)
Ah, Oh well, itâs Emil and Bell after allâŚ?
ăThere is no problem, I will follow you anywhere!ă(Riette)
Yes, Riette-chan, I will definitely protect you!
ăWith that being said. Just leave everything to me. I will deal with it properlyă(Kaoru)
As I said that to the shopkeepers, the 2 drugstore owners canât process the situation and are dumbfounded.
Well. Itâs show time! (In EN)
Leaving the 2 shopkeepers dumbfounded, I opened the door and went outside the store.
And then taking out a small whistle, as big as a thumb from my pocket.
Pikopikoppi ~! Pikopikoppi ~! Pikopikoppi ~! (SFX)
Pikopikoppi ~! Pikopikoppi ~! Pikopikoppi ~! (SFX)
Pikopikoppi ~! Pikopikoppi ~! Pikopikoppi ~! (SFX)
I spent all of my vital capacity and blew at full power.
And, after a while, a number of children ran at full power, appeared from both sides of the road facing the store.
I am the first one. The work this time is mine!ă(Orphan 1)
ăIdiot, the explanation of the signal, have you forgotten?
This time isnât a normal job.
Isnât that right, Kaoru-sama?ă(Orphan 2)
I nodded to the boy who arrived second.
Thank him repeat the explanation, everyone got it together.
And the children are gathering one after another. Children in orphanages and the vagrants living in the vicinity.
No, itâs children who settled in abandoned houses and so on.
They are not actually ăvagrantsă
They seem to be homeless rather than vagrants, but thatâs fine.
These kids are children I am asking for errands and chores from time to time with coins and food as a reward.
Usually, I ordered the child on sight properly, but when thereâs no one nearby, I will call them by blowing this whistle.
If I blow once, 1 person, if I blow twice, two persons, if I blow 3 times, 3 persons.
Itâs an early first come, first served.
And if I keep on blowing to the whistle⌠Itâs an emergency call signal.
At that time, itâs the work for everyone who heard the whistle sound.
Yes, itâs an emergency.
The orphans gathered were in line in the order they came.
They know that I will never forgive misbehavior such as missing order, so, they do it properly.
And then I explained the contents of the request to them.
ăRight now, a dangerous epidemic is spreading in the capital, no⌠this Kingdom.
Do you know what we are going to do?ă(Kaoru)
ăWe will erase it, we will save the capital and this countryă(Kaoru)
ăăăăăOoooooooooo! Amazingggggggăăăăă(Many Orphans)
Until now, I have paid the reward properly.
For the orphans and vagrants around here, who refused my request or doubted my words, I didnât heal them.
After witnessing my miracle, they all kind of worship me now.
For now, I pay the children, they get a bottle of potion and a silver coin one after the other which I pick up from the bag hanging on my shoulder.
And the number of potions is impossible to put in that bag, but no one cares about it.
Of course, including Francetteâs group.
And with my instructions, everyone drank the potion.
Alright, there is no worry that children will get infected with the disease.
ăFirst of all, the four of you, go to the place taught by this person.
And say that the manager of ăAtelier Rietteăwants them to come to the statue of the central plaza by the 2nd bell of the morning.
After that, please do the same duties as other children that I will explain soonă(Kaoru)
I nominated four children and pointing towards Roland.
ăRoland, tell these kids about the Lieutenant Colonel, the Middle Captain, and the house of the two aristocrats that came to my shop before.
You already gathered information about them, right? The aristocrats who bothered me beforeâŚă(Kaoru)
Roland is scratching his head, apparently, itâs really soâŚ
ăYou, go to Saletbart Real Estate and say ăAtelier Riette will stop doing business, please terminate the contract today, we already paid enough payment for this monthă
Then continue to do the same with the othersă(Kaoru)
Because the message content is longer than the other, I asked the oldest child.
ăThis is the same work for everyone.
Notifying around the streets, the content is
ăEpidemic disease medicine will be provided and anyone can get it for free.
From the 2nd bell of today morning, in front of the statue of the central plazaă
Alright, sortie!ă(Kaoru)
Everyone ran like flying with their eyes shining.
ăWhy did Kaoru do such a thing?ă(Francette)
France complains but that matter is decided!
ăBecause they are the people in the city that once took care of me, I canât let them dieă(Kaoru)
When I say so, Francette isâŚ
ăNo, I think that itâs natural for Kaoru to do so.
But I donât understand why you have to call even the aristocrats that brought you all the trouble beforeă(Francette)
ăNo matter if they are good or bad, they are ăacquaintanceă for the time being.
When I call them, they will think that I want to sell something or have a request. They will consider there might be profit or benefit for them.
If I excluded them out, there might be a chance that the aristocrats will not know anything at all.
For this time, I also want the military and aristocrats to get involved from the beginning, I want to spread information all at once.
In other words, because they are just messengers, it doesnât matter whether they are good persons or bad persons, itâs only the person close to the route where the information is flowing as soon as possible to the aristocracy and the royal palaceă(Kaoru)
ăAh, I see!ă(Francette)
Francette is finally convinced.
Roland seemed to know that from the beginning, thereâs no chance in his expression.
As expected, rather than the Kingâs brother he is better suited to be the king,âŚhis spec is probably higher than his Majesty the King.
Well, before we head to Central Plaza, should I store all of the items in the store in the item box?
Letâs take a billboard as well.
I will be able to use it next time.
