Perhaps, because we really had lots of fun playing the VR game, before I knew it, it was already nighttime. Thereupon, I received a message from Lilia-san through Illness-san.
[Tre-san, Cento-san, Cien-sanā¦ā¦ Lilia-sanā¦ā¦ Errr, the Head of the neighboring Duchy would like to have dinner with everyone if you donāt mind.]
Of course, I had told Lilia-san about Tre-sanās visit todayā¦ā¦ but it seems like not only Tre-san, but also Cento-san and Cien-san werenāt famous, as Lilia-san and Luna-san didnāt know them at all.
According to Sieg-sanās assessment, Cento-san and Cien-san should be around high Count-rankā¦ā¦ but they probably werenāt moving in public at all.
[We canāt trouble you anymore than thisā¦ā¦]
[We having dinner? Well~~ Iām looking forward to it~~]
[ [ ā¦ā¦Esteemed Sister Tre, come here for a moment. ] ]
I usually have my meals at Lilia-sanās mansion. I get along with her head chef reasonably well, and thereās no need to hire separate cooks for the houses that are right next to each other. I also made sure to pay for the food expense for our share.
Well, of course, my house has its own dining room and kitchen. This time, through Lilia-sanās consideration, she asked Illness-san to bring the food to my dining room.
Cento-san and Cien-san seemed to be feeling reservedā¦ā¦ but of course, Tre-san didnāt hesitate at all and decided to eat together with us without any hesitation.
It seems that Cento-san and Cien-san are scolding her for it, but Tre-san is a mentally strong person, so she will definitely have her way in the end.
After watching for a while, it seemed like the two gave up and said they were going to eat with us with apologetic looks on their faces.
Of course, I had no problem with this, so I decided to bring the three of them to the dining room.
Thanks to Tre-sanās cheerful personality, the conversation at the dinner table was very lively and the meal proceeded in a friendly atmosphere.
[ā¦ā¦Speaking of which, do you also work at Seditch Magic Tools Trading Company, Tre-san?]
[You can say I work thereā¦ā¦ but I donāt really have any particular position.]
[Esteemed Sister Tre works in a somewhat special department, with a highly confidential job.]
Cien-san interjected upon things that Tre-san was unable to explain. Well, as the worldās largest trading company, it was natural that they would have a secret or two.
I guess I shouldnāt ask too many questions here when she deliberately spoke ambiguously by calling it a highly confidential job.
[I can change the purity of magic crystals by pouring my magic power into it, so itās my job to make high purity magic crystals!]
[ā¦ā¦Esteemed Sister Tre.]
[Eh? Itās not like I really have to hide it from Kaito though?]
[Thatās so butā¦ā¦ Just now, even though Cien and Miyama-san were being mindful, you instantly wasted it.]
I see, I have a pretty good idea of what theyāre talking about. The purer the magic crystal, the rarer and more expensive it isā¦ā¦ and that is what Tre-san was making.
Moreover, from the sound of it, it isnāt something that just anyone can do. I think itās probably due to that magic that changes the ratio of things that she mentioned earlier.
That makes things a lot of sense now. So thatās what Cento-san and Cien-san meant when they referred to themselves as her guardsā¦ā¦
Tre-san herself isnāt a fighter at all, but she has a special ability that is rare and would generate considerable wealth. Thatās why she has powerful guards with herā¦ā¦ and since thereās no guarantee that no one will have ill-will upon hearing this, they must have been keeping this information confidential.
I guess this is why Lilia-san and the others didnāt know about Tre-san and the twins.
[ā¦ā¦Tre-san is actually an amazing person huh.]
[Arehh? Thatās strange, the way you said that, it sounds like you thought I was just an idiot until you heard about this.]
[Ahh~~ Thatās cruel~~ Youāre cruel~~ I was deeply hurt. Thatās why, Iāll be taking your ham!]
Because we happened to be sitting next to each other, Tre-san quickly snatched the ham from my plate and quickly brought it to her mouth.
As she ate it with great relish, I couldnāt see how hurt she was with that big smile on her face.
[I will take your ham as compensation!]
[Youāve already eaten itā¦ā¦]
[Iāve taken your ham as compensation!]
I couldnāt help but smile when I saw Tre-san dutifully reiterate her words, puffing out her chest with her exclamation. It was a childish gesture, but how should I say thisā¦ā¦ each of her actions looked like she was really having fun.
She was smiling when we were talking, she was playing the game as enthusiastically as she could, and she seemed to be really enjoying her interactions with me right now.
If I had to describe her, Iād say sheās like the sunā¦ā¦ Sheās bright and cheerful, and above all, when youāre with him, she makes you smileā¦ā¦
Tre-san, holding such dazzling charm, was a slightlyā¦ā¦ No, a rather unusual girl.
However, wellā¦ā¦ After getting to know her, I feel like it was really great that I got to meet her.
