They say it is polite not to speak clearly in these situations, then muddle the second halfā¦ā¦ In Japan, at least.
However, I spoke clearly and on point.
Yes, like how the deceased behaved in an honorable manner to protect a woman.
Then I gave the bereaved a ruby pendant, 301 gold coins, and a letter of gratitude.
Of course, it was a letter of gratitude, not for trying to protect the product, but for trying to protect the woman who worked there.
Just as he was about to turn 50, his children were all married and living their own lives, his grandchildren were born, and he was about to embrace a happy retirement with his wifeā¦ā¦.
If he were a soldier, that would be unavoidable.
Even if itās the same <death>, he would have been prepared for it since he knew what kind of profession he chose.</death>
If you have chosen a , you must accept that you may get killed as well.</profession>
So, although I try to avoid it as much as possible, I have no qualms about the death of the enemy soldiers in the war because I have no choice but to do so, to protect my friends and loved ones.
Also, while painful, the deaths of the allied soldiers were unavoidable in war.
ā¦ā¦But not the civilians.
No matter what kind of a security guard you are, you would never kill a thief or intruder with or without saying a word, and of course, it is not a profession that you would take on if youāre prepared to die in the first place.
It is just one of the most common occupations. Even though there is some danger involvedā¦ā¦.
So, a brave man who has died unreasonablyā¦ Yes, he risked his life protecting a woman, then heās nothing more than a fine brave manā¦ Iāll do as much as I can for those that he left behind. Financially and spiritually.
So, I gave him a letter of thanks from the Larushia Trade, and the Yamano Viscounty, as well as rubies and gold coins.
In honor of the deceased.
For the bereavedās pride.
The bereaved should not have to live in poverty.
ā¦ā¦And for the peace of mind of those whoāre left behindā¦ā¦
Thatās why I spilled these twisted words.
[Actually, Iāve heard this story before.
There are people in this world who, with a bit of money, can settle grudges that cannot be cleared and judge the crimes that cannot be forgivenā¦ā¦
Theyāre running a special promo right now, and theyāll take care of your problem for a discounted price and one gold coin until the end of the weekā¦ā¦] Mitsuha
The eyes of the late guardās wife, which until then had been sunk in sadness, lit up.
And she seems to have understood my meaning.
ā¦ā¦She finds out why the condolence money has an odd amount of 301 gold coins.
Then she gently reached into the leather bag and plucked out a gold coin.
She quickly gave it to meā¦ā¦
[Thank you for your patronageā¦ā¦] Mitsuha
Yes.
Those peopleās fate was already sealed.
But now she may think that she has
[Yeah, I thought you might want to witness it. The Yamano clanās wrath when their friends are hurt and when their people are killedā¦ā¦] Mitsuha
=====
Iām not in Japan.
Not even on Earth.
Therefore, everyone must abide by this worldās rules.
And in this world, I set the rules, my own rules.
If you donāt follow the rules.
If you follow your own rules, which is fine as long as you donāt get caught.
Then Iāll also play along with your rules ć»ć»ć»ć»ć»ć»ć»
There should be no complaints.
Well, no matter how much I wanted to, I couldnāt just punch him in the face without any evidence, just because he was suspicious.
Even at that time of the Rephilia trade, I hadnāt touched them until I found our product in their warehouse.
So again, no matter how suspicious they are, I wonāt go on the offensive right away.
Itās true that there was only one merchant association that persistently demanded purchasing routes, pushed Larushia to be their handmaiden, and tried to recruit Larushia Trading employees after the incident, but there were several others that did the same.
Anyway, we need proof.
Itās not that I need evidence that will hold up in court.
Just as long as I can identify the criminal, thatās all that matters.
Itās not the government officials or nobles, that is under the control of the criminals, who will judge.
ā¦ā¦I will be the judge.
Well then, letās go~!
Night camouflage leotard, yosh!
Head-mounted night vision scope, yosh!
Ultra-compact IC voice recorder, yosh!
By the way, it can record for 400 hours continuously, has a voice detection auto-recording function, and has a standby time of 300 days. It did not cost more than 5,000 yen. I bought about 10 of them.
The ones that send out wiretap signals run out of battery quickly, and you have to be nearby all the time to intercept them, and itās hard to follow many at once, so thereās no better choice than a recorder.
A wiretap is good if you can get a semi-permanent power source by planting it in an electrical outlet or something, but you knowā¦ Thatās not important. I havenāt even read RL La ć Ora ć Fu* since my brother passed awayā¦ā¦
Anyway, what I need this time was a recording device, not a wiretapping device.
Even if they find it, the people here wonāt know what it is, and whether they find it or not, itās only a matter of me going near their store and transferring with them to retrieve it.
So I have to pay them a visit when I install it, but I donāt have to sneak in when I collect it.
