episode_0329

Early in the morning, finishing the day, before leaving work at Changgwan.

Aurora, who had just returned from finishing up Flora’s 3rd branch (formerly Mademoiselle), and Ranie, who was in charge of the main branch, were chatting happily at the counter inside the lobby.

At the word of Vivian, who opened the door and came out of the main store manager’s office holding a piece of paper, the two rushed to stand in front of her.

“Rani, Aurora. Come here for a moment.

It’s a problem with the statement of accounts. Let’s take care of it ourselves?”

“Yes? Yes~!! I’m fine… … !! Hehe!!

oh!! Ouch!! Vivian!! It hurts… !!”

Although he was sweating profusely and trying desperately to pretend not to know or be innocent, Ranie was immediately caught by his ears and was watching as one of the financial statements was thrust in front of his face.

Aurora, who was glancing at it, soon smiled and said a word.

“In the financial statements of the Flora’s main branch…

… It looks like there’s an extra 0 (zero) added.

If it had gone up like this, it would have been a disaster, right?”

“0 Do you know what kind of catastrophe can occur just by adding one more?

Do you want to be buried in ten times as many towels as you have now, Ranie?

Don’t you remember the last time you got four bags of radish and ate nothing but radishes for days?”

“Hehehe… … !! Sorry… !!”

From the beginning, Vivian knew that Lanier was not a suitable person for office work, so when he saw her sullen face, he smiled faintly.

The reason he entrusts the work to her, who is not suitable for the job in the first place, is because she is the most trustworthy person among the people around him.

Vivian, who began to gently care for Ranie, wrapped her arms around her waist and gently pulled her in, and began to talk gently face to face.

“I told you to concentrate when calculating… ?

Did you know that the second branch suffered a lot of damage from the monster this time?

While I take charge of organizing the second store, you are the manager of the main store.

If we slip, who suffers? ”

“Darling… Hey… … ”

“Okay… He’s at a loss.

The balance sheet doesn’t just mean eating radishes.

But it is a problem connected to the taxes we pay to the country.

So, don’t make mistakes and do it right… ?”

“Four!! I will take care and do it right… !!”

That was the moment when Ranie finally reflected on her mistakes and thought the story would end.

Aurora was showing a nervous smile on her face when Vivian suddenly turned her head to the side and looked at her.

“Good. And Aurora?”

“Yes… ? Why am I… … ?”

“Fifteen gold coins are empty?

Did you think you wouldn’t notice if I just roughly corrected it?”

“Ugh… … ”

“You remember that I am the one who uses double ledgers, right?

So shouldn’t we fix it to make it less noticeable?

Fifteen gold coins is a lot of money, right?”

Aurora’s only choice was to keep her mouth shut, as if she had seen right through the point.

Vivian, who was looking at that scene, let out a deep sigh and gently comforted her like she did with Ranie, but then quickly snapped and calmly said a blunt word.

“Haaa… Because it’s you, there must have been a reason for it.

But don’t you have to say something to me?

or not… Do you think it’s finally worth giving it a try with me?”

“Huh… Of course not… ?

If I challenge Vivian, my head will be blown off first.

It’s true that there was a reason.

But what I couldn’t report was…

I think you should see it for yourself… ?”

“Bo… Called… … ?”

Aurora, who sounded vaguely familiar, smiled seductively and turned around, and Vivian, who tilted her head, soon followed her.

Perhaps because it was closing time, I passed through the quiet lobby of the Flora’s main branch and went outside.

Vivian passed the tomb of Lily, a small girl simply placed next to the entrance to Floraz’s building, and came out onto the street outside. She simply followed Aurora, who began to lead her to a different place.

Vivian, who was briefly wary of Aurora out of curiosity, seemed to have given up on the idea when she saw Ranie running behind her, the hem of her dress fluttering.

“Would you like to come here?”

Vivian eventually arrived in front of a building and silently approached Aurora, who tried to approach her.

She was gently clenching her fist as she watched Aurora grinning sinisterly at her and holding on to the door handle of the building.

“Queen… !!”

“Congratulations!!”

When the door opens, a ray of light comes out, along with shouts that sound like they’ve been waiting.

“What… … ? What… ?”

Vivian felt a sweet scent at the tip of her nose, and only then realized that it was the smell of food. As she stood still with a dumbfounded expression, the hands of two girls gently pushing her back pushed her into the building.

The bar was still open, as if it hadn’t closed yet, and the only customers inside were the denizens of the den, such as Henia.

The sight of them sharing a drink with food already placed on the table, their cheeks flushed as if they were already a little drunk.

“What? It’s a drinking party.

What is the purpose… … It’s both a business and a business.

Newcomers also came in, so there was a welcome party.

We got over this incident safely, so it’s a celebration party.

and… It is a day worth commemorating, and it is also an anniversary.”

“What are you saying… … ”

“Until then, the only title I was called was Queen.

Now you have become the true hostess of the ‘Enic Kingdom’, which has been launched quite nicely.

Of course, the founding day was a few days ago, but for now, you should show it off to the people, right?

They say that is also a ‘royal duty’?

At least the humans who live comfortably in that castle.”

Aurora, who had fulfilled the conditions of the crime of insulting the royal family by pointing her finger roughly in the direction of the royal palace, grinned and dragged Vivian to the head of the table and sat her down.

“Ahahahaha!! Queen!!”

“You must be surprised!! So cute!!”

“With ten gold coins… Just renting out a bar… ? ha… …

If it was like this… Just saying… ”

“Karrrr!! Would you please take a drink!?”

“Push… !! Ugh… write… … !! what… !?

this… It’s a strong liquor from Chaoxing… !!”

“Aaaaa!! The alcohol is bitter!! So cute!!”

“Even the queen can’t drink strong alcohol!!

So so cute!!♡”

Women who burst out laughing at themselves.

Humans and beasts, which normally would not have been the case, were mixed together in one place.

Seeing them smiling with pure fun, with expressions that don’t seem to show any worries or concerns.

Vivian smiled and picked up the glass in front of her again, put it to her mouth, and gulped down the contents, taking one shot.

“Uhuuu… … ”

“Oh my!! Queen!!”

“If that drink doesn’t suit you, there are other options… !!”

The women, who had thought she wouldn’t drink twice, were astonished to see Vivian downing her drink in one shot and came up to her, but Vivian was waving her hand and making them sit back down in their seats.

“You guys… ha… …

Something like a speech from the Academy Dean.

Do you have a hobby that makes you suffer while listening to things like that?

I didn’t like it because it was too long.”

He made a slightly bored expression and slightly held out his empty glass in front of his eyes.

“So I’ll keep it short.

People who stood by his side.

And the people who have been with us all this time.

Thank you all so far, and please take good care of me in the future.

today… Enjoy yourself to the fullest. It was short like this, right?”

On the other hand, it seemed like she said it well, but in front of Vivian, who was clinking her drink after speaking, it seemed like loud jeers were pouring out.

“Woo!! It’s long!!”

“I can’t read more than three lines… !!

I can’t do it because I really don’t know how to read… !!”

“Ahahaha!!”

“Hehe!! Ahihihi!!”

Of course, a lively atmosphere was quickly taking hold among the women who started laughing at such playful nonsense.

Looking at those scenes, Vivian makes fun of her boss… The moment I muttered “”” and burst into laughter, turning to the side and trying to leave.

“And this.”

The brief moment passed when she stopped and saw Aurora and Ranie suddenly rushing towards her.

Vivian felt the top of her head becoming slightly heavier, and was trying to raise her eyes and look up.

The golden, gorgeous tiara perched on top of her head glowed reddish in the light from the torches that filled the bar, and exclamations of admiration began to pour out from those around her.

“Wow… … ”

Is there anything that makes people envy it as much as gold?

However, that envy is soon buried in an even bigger envy, and that huge envy is sculpted even more beautifully.

An absolute monarch, in name and in reality, supreme to everyone in his lair.

A female, young, capable, a flower, as beautiful as the blue sky, who receives his favor and is loved the most.

A simple yet beautifully crafted tiara that seems to define her as a true queen.

The eyes of everyone who looked at Vivian wearing the queen’s crown were filled with envy and longing, and they seemed to be looking at her as if they could pierce through her.

“Okay… Fifteen gold coins…

I thought there would be enough money left over to just rent out a bar…

How many are in here?”

“Column Overview… !! Hehe!!”

“You know that counterfeiting and damaging currency is a crime, right?

but… Anyway, I like it. Thank you.”

She was obviously pretending that nothing had happened and that she was being blunt as the queen, but everyone already knew.

Her eyes were filled with inconceivable surprise and helpless embarrassment.

“Then, since you received something good, the owner is giving in today, right?”

“That… That can’t be possible… … !!

Take it back!! He’s mine… !!”

“Wow!! Applause to the queen for giving up her master!!

This is true class!! Noblesse oblige!!

The queen will wear a crown and sleep well today!!

The night is our own party~!!”

“Whoever puts me to sleep as they please!!

no… !! No!!

I’m going to play with him too… !!”

“Hehehe!!”

“Ahaha!! Hehehe!!”

Even though I feel like a clown, this isn’t a bad feeling.

Vivian was fiddling with the tiara on her head that Ranie and Aurora had put so much effort into preparing for her, and she was quickly smiling and letting out a small laugh.

‘But he doesn’t give in to anyone.

I don’t know about one or two strands.’

The beautiful queen was actually an extremely greedy person who could not be compared to anyone else.

As if to completely destroy the feelings of the two subordinates, the Henias, and the new human recruits, Vivian’s actions that night, monopolizing the tentacles and showing off the tiara.

Otherwise, the tentacles were just writhing as if they were wondering, unable to understand the situation.
