「Of course you can. It is soon going to be the time for the Third Imperial Prince’s wedding, and His Highness intends to move into his own house right after the ceremony, so I was thinking about what would be the most appropriate gift for the newlyweds. Initially I though that perhaps an Orb of Self Destruction might be a good present for their soon-to-be-born child? Or perhaps an Elixir would be better? And just like that, I ended up spending quite a bit of time here thinking what to choose, but unfortunately to no avail so far, since I have distinct trouble discerning what might be the best possible gift for a young couple moving on to their new home.」

So, this Third Prince wants to move to his own house with his bride, huh? In other words, he does not want to eventually succeed the throne, but he would rather go fully independent? I do not know how manageable that is going to be, but at the very least I can respect the guy for rejecting the easy way out that has been laid before him and instead choosing to try and conquer his destiny with his own two hands.

The Third Imperial Prince, huh? I do not personally know him, and I doubt that I ever will, but overall he sounds like an okay kind of guy, and maybe that proves that not all members of the royalty or nobility are complete douchebags and assholes? But nevertheless….

「That does sound like you are in a pretty tight spot.」

「It sounds like that indeed. You would not happen to be in possession of anything that could be used as a Gift Item, would you, Michio-sama?」

「No. Unfortunately, I am not in possession of any such items.」

And honestly, why would I ever be? I have no reason to be in possession of such items, because I have my hands full providing for decent living conditions for myself and my slaves, so it never even crossed my mind to have items that could be given to other people as gifts.

「Well, choosing gifts takes time, and those two are not the only one that I was considering. On that note, if you would happen to have some Clematis flowers on you, I would gladly buy them off of you, for an appropriate compensation of course.」

Clematis flowers? Quite a peculiar choice of flowers to give to the newlyweds, but whatever, it’s not like I know any better (TL Note: In the language of flowers Clematis means mental beauty, and its symbolism is that of the beauty of ingenuity or the trait of artifice, most likely related to its clever ability to climb around high places such as walls as well as trellises) since I am not a florist and I do not know the symbolism of each and every flower in the world.

「I do not know much about giving gifts to others, but if you are looking for one, then how about a Palmasque Mirror? Sure, it might not be a much of a practical gift, but at least it is going to look pretty nice mounted on the wall of the Prince’s new house, right?」

Sherry was the one who told me that it is a popular gift among nobles, and that is why I suggested it to him, but the turn that the conversation took after that surprised me greatly.

「Nobles in the east use them often from what I have heard, but here in the north, we hardly get a chance to obtain them, since a journey to Palmasque from these territories would be a long and difficult one.」

「I see. That is understandable.」

They are not using the Palmasque mirrors here because they are unable to get their hands on them, but I am willing to bet my right arm that if only they could, then such a thing could definitely be used as a Gift Item of the highest quality. Because, I mean, why would it not be so? At the very least, I know that I would have done something like that without a second thought if I was a noble or a member of royalty, and I would have done so, then that is all the more reason for me to believe that others would have done so as well.

「Normally there would be a chance for us to get it in the Imperial City, since they are always used whenever there is a wedding ceremony for the important figures, but this time we already tried that and there is not a single one left in the capital, and I am not sure if we will be able to obtain it from Palmasque in time this time. Unless… unless you would be able to perhaps get it from somewhere else and for a reasonable price?」

「Well…. I cannot make any promises, but I can say that I might have an idea.」

「Well then, if you could get it from somewhere else, then we would definitely like to purchase it from you. If you do manage to buy it, you can deliver it straight to the Duke’s castle in Bode.」

I am not sure if I can go directly to Palmasque, but I can definitely go to Zabir at the very least, and because Zabir should be the closest town to Palmasque, then I wonder if I will be able to acquire a Palmasque Mirror from there for a cheaper price than usual?

Alternatively, I can always rest in Zabir to recover the MP that is going to be spent, and then go to Palmasque.

「Okay then, I will see what I can do about it.」

「Wonderful. It would seem that I am going to be in your debt once again. If you are really going to try to obtain the Palmasque Mirror for us, then I want you to have this.」

Gozer then handed me a small item that looked like an emblem with a crest etched onto it.

「What is this?」

「The Emblem of Hartz Duchy. If you show this to the guards or servants at the castle, the Duke and I will immediately be informed of your arrival. One word of advice though: please make sure not to misuse it in any way, because if you do, we will be forced to charge you with the crime of abusing the Duke’s authority.」

I examined the emblem, which was applied to a piece of good quality cloth, closely. Everything about it screams that it is the property of someone belonging to the higher echelons of society. I cannot discern if it is woven or embroidered, but regardless it looks like something that would be especially hard to make, not to mention create a counterfeit of.

Maybe that is actually the reason why Gozer was willing to give it to me so easily: because he knew that even if I tried to create a copy of this emblem, then my attempts to do so would all be for naught. At the same time, should I treat is as a sort of a letter of introduction? Because if we are treating this thing as a letter of introduction, then that would mean that I have received yet another letter of introduction, which makes it a total of two letters of introduction in a very short time: one from Alan the Slave Merchant that should allow me to do business with the Slave Merchant situated in the Imperial City, and now this one from Gozer that is going to make it possible for me to enter the castle in Bode, the capital of the Hartz Duchy so that I could deliver the Palmasque Mirror after I obtain it. Hoo boi, I am definitely on a roll when it comes to these things.

What is this, a season for handing out letters of introduction left and right? Because if so, then why did nobody informed me of this? If I knew that I will be able to get such sweet deals for myself, I would have prepared myself for it just a little bit more.

「I am sorry for having you wait, Gozer-sama. I had to take care of the business transaction with another visitor first.」

As I was putting the emblem back into my backpack, I heard someone calling out to Gozer from behind me. It was Luke, the broker who I just bought the Green Caterpillar Skill Crystal from.

「By saying 「another visitor」, I believe you were talking about me, right?」

I remarked half-jokingly.

「Oh, so you two know each other?」

When I turned around, Luke the Broker and Gozer both looked surprised, although each of them for a very different reason.
