ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 297: Half-Naked, Long-Legged Onii—san (Bird Head) Part 2

  

Fumu, fumu, a couple dozens of top quality ore? I see, okay. I can do that no problem……

  

Some time later.

 

Run. Hide. Dig. Die.

 

Then rinse and repeat.

  

What do you say? That going to be enough?

 

Say, Emul? I know that I sent you to gather materials, but didn’t I said that I needed “just a little bit”?

 

You see, Onee-chan. One simply cannot have enough Golden Scales. The more the merrier!

 

When asked about the details, it is something alongside the lines of “Those who worry about the Siegwurm’s golden scales to deteriorate are the real idiots”. It has something to do with the fact that Siegwurm’s scales never deteriorate, or something like that. It’s an interesting proverb to have, especially since it does not seem to have its counterpart in the real world…… Wait a minute? Does that mean that what I’m doing is stupid, but since it is stupid, there is little use to worry about it? Hoo?

 

Hey, Emul. Later I am going to get you acquainted with the business end of my sword here.

 

Wait a second…… Are you going to throw it? You are aren’t you!? Why are you going to throw it at me!? What about a parabola!?

 

There will be none. It is going to be thrown in a straight line, so brace yourself!

 

Straight line!?

 

That’s what you get for getting me to overwork myself for nothing. Now, my dear Duxaram, it is time for you to give it your very best. I’m counting on you!

 

Every time you score a critical hit, you restore its lost Durability, so it should not be that much of a problem here. So by that factor alone, it is a weapon that is more convenient to use than my every other weapon. At least from the attack power point of view. Because ability-wise I have even better stuff.

 

…… Well, you might want to hold your horses there. Strengthening the furnace is going to take time. About two weeks, I wager.

 

Alright, ah and apart from that, I would like you to strengthen this, this, and that. Can you do it?

 

I also want to strengthen Emul at some point, so he cannot blame me for showing him some tough love now. After all, I am willing to spend some serious money on him in the not so distant future!

 

Yes, I am the kind of a man who does not care about money at all. I mean, I like to save money as much as possible, but at the same time, when money needs to be spent, I am going to do it without regret. No matter if we talk about a few hundreds or a few millions.

 

I already decided to go to Firstea on a later date. But for now, I had a certain business to attend to in Fiftsia.

 

It is a meeting that I was able to arrange thanks to a connection to one of the people from my guild, but even if it was not for that, I am sure that I have enough “goods” on me to be treated as a VIP right from the start. Even though I am nothing more but a bird-headed, half-naked person.

 

Now then, Sanraku-sama. What brings you here so late in the night like that……?

 

I am that kind of Pioneer that you may call a night owl…… What about that guy?

 

Once he heard that you are here, Sanraku-sama, he said that he shall be here as soon as possible.

 

I see, so if he’s on his wait…… Would it be alright for me to wait here?

 

But of course. After all, Sanraku-sama is the distinguished guest of the “Golden Scale Company”.

 

For a while, the only thing I could do was to feed my muffler some carrots in the waiting room…… and by the quest room I mean a room that a Royal Castle would not even scoff at. Then I heard knocking onto the door.

 

Sanraku-sama, the one you wanted to meet is here.

 

Please bring him in.

 

Sanraku-san, the sheer contrast of your behavior and appearance is making it hard for me not to laugh…… Bgyeh!?

 

Mufflers can’s speak, right? So do me a favor out there and shut up for a moment, will you?

 

The next moment, the one who entered the room was a young NPC who looked really tired, wearing a soot.

 

The man seemed to be pretty muscular, but was also giving off the impression of possessing some excess weight. He looked towards me and when he realized that I was looking right at him, he bowed his head quickly. Still, I could see it in his eyes. The question that he voiced almost right afterword.

 

Eh? Why  are you naked like that……?

 

Please do not worry about it, I assure you that there is a reason for that…… You are Norman, right?

 

Yes, that’s right…… I heard that you would like for the Golden Scale Company to lend you a loan, is that correct?

 

THUD! Together with that sound, the sturdy desk shakes and almost crumbled under the weight of what was placed on it. What I took out of my inventory…… Norman’s eyes widened with surprise upon seeing that.

 

The giant-sized jewel that I placed on the desk…… For a moment out there the young man could only see that, and probably could not even hear my words. He almost seemed like a zombie.

 

After all, this item is something that cannot be obtained through any normal means, no matter how big of a loan you would want to take. It can only be gathered at the top of the Crystal Scorpion Cliff, a place that might as well be synonymous with hell here on this continent.

 

Lapisteria Crystal Star…… Is that what we are supposed to be looking for?

 

Ah, aaahhh…… And it is so big…… That has to be a lie, no? No way, that’s the first rate star!? No way, isn’t that something fit for a Royal Family? Eh, eeh……!?

 

Can I continue with my explanation?

 

Y-Yesh!

 

When you try to do negotiations like Pencilgton would, there are to basic approaches that you can do: one is to hide your hand as long as possible, and other is to reveal more information that it is actually necessary.

 

If you overwhelm the other side with information, it makes them lose their composure and confidence, which in turn makes them more willing to make concessions in hopes of learning even more.

 

This guy basically reeks of a rich old dude with a whole lot of shadiness to him. It also occurred to me now that they were the same company that Pencilgton used to deal with, so that is most probably the reason why mentioning her  name worked here. And as far as negotiations go…… I really want to get as much information as I possibly can from those guys.

 

Norman-kun, I am your…… Yes, I can say with all responsibility that I am very interested in your offer…… By all means, please tell me all the details you can tell me……!

 

I am a kind of a man who does not care about money! Hell, I can even put up to five billion mani if you want me to! No problem!
