Even after receiving the princess’s gift, the conversation with the Chechen continued.

“We seem to agree with each other. How about we fight together later? If Suhan will take care of the supplies, we will take care of the people who will deal with the monsters.”

He made me a rather tempting offer.

Since each of us is good at different areas, working together will create good synergy.

In particular, since we were at the top, it was difficult to find awakened people with good skills.

Moreover, it is not easy to deal with the awakened people who are calling from all over the place and whose ransom has risen to a high level.

‘When we start gathering people, the atmosphere will be chaotic because the first subjugation will have failed badly. At that time, it would be better if the name princess added value.’

When the fantasy of the nobles who were immersed in a red-carpeted future was shattered, and a great shock came.

Imagine that Princess Mona is recruiting awakened people.

‘What if we even succeed in subjugating there?’

The Chechen’s expression was extremely sinister, as if he had the same thoughts as me.

If you can contribute to Princess Mona’s achievements, that is also a good thing.

In this case, it was more of a situation where we had to ask to be involved.

“Nothing has been decided yet, so we’ll have to talk about it in detail.”

“That means… ?”

“Princess Mona made an offer. How could you refuse it?”

“Excellent decision! Let’s put our heads together to decide on the timing. “At least I think it would be better to talk to Soohan rather than making a decision on my own.”

Chechen seemed a little excited by my consent, and his voice became louder.

Perhaps because he was worried that people would notice that he was drawing a large picture, Chechen skillfully changed the topic.

“I heard that you have been supporting the academy for quite some time. “I know that the alchemist who is scheduled to present this time is still a student at the academy.”

“yes. I have long believed that children are the hope of humanity that must be protected. We have continued to support children in small amounts with the hope that it will help them grow. “Then, as the situation gradually improved, I am thinking about supporting in a new way in the near future.”

As soon as Chechnya brought up the topic of sponsorship, I honestly told him how I planned to provide sponsorship in the future.

Don’t you know?

Since you said you have a good head, you might be able to listen to my story and get some advice.

“That’s fascinating. Even artist sponsorships will not be managed with that much care.”

After hearing about my plan to manage the awakened people, Chechnya mentioned sponsoring artists.

Patronage of artists was the most common type of patronage among nobles.

‘Making slush funds with art is the same here.’

Support artists and purchase their works to create a slush fund and avoid taxes.

For their own benefit, nobles sponsored artists.

But what I’m trying to do now is not to support an artist by turning a blind eye to it.

“It is fundamentally different from artist sponsorship. “A person’s arm curves inward, so having support at a young age gives you the advantage of being able to get in based on the most basic goodwill.”

“The idea is to increase friendliness by sponsoring in the name of the company and providing goods.”

“you’re right. “We sponsor underprivileged students to give back to society, and we sponsor talented geniuses to raise the reputation of the top school.”

As I waited in anticipation to see what advice Chechnya would give me, he kept making exclamations.

“It’s a shame I didn’t think of this sooner. No, now that I think about it again, this is a plan that cannot be carried out in the name of Princess Mona. Even if Princess Mona supported it with good intentions, the other side would not have left it alone. But the method itself seems very good.”

It seemed like he had no intention of giving any advice.

On the contrary, I see that they are impressed that my plan is very novel.

“The unfamiliar cannot overcome the familiar. “Is that what you intended?”

“Yes, that’s exactly what I was aiming for.”

“It’s a shame I have to go back soon. If I had known this would happen, I would have made more time. “It’s rare to meet someone you can communicate with…”

As if he was disappointed with Chechnya, he quenched his appetite.

“You can come back later. I think it would be nice to have a drink together then. “I’ll be waiting.”

“Alcohol is good, but my personal preference is to drink tea. Shouldn’t we be able to share diverse opinions only if we have a conversation with a clear mind?”

… Although I thought it would be difficult to deal with him because his tastes were a bit unique.

“It’s really unfortunate. “If I had known that this was someone I could communicate well with, I would have given myself more time.”

“Because today is not the only day.”

Anyway, being friendly with this man is helpful to us.

I couldn’t refuse with a straight face when people expressed their interest.

“I have some work to do, so I guess I’ll have to go.”

“Next time you come, I will prepare a tea you might like.”

It’s still at the top, but I wonder if I can’t find a good car.

Most of the drinks in my house are made to suit children’s tastes, so you’ll have to reach out to the top to find something that suits his tastes.

“If you have anything urgent to convey to the princess in the future, please send someone to me at any time. That will reach the princess’s ears much sooner. If you have any other business, you are welcome to visit us at any time.”

Chechnya reached out to me first, as if he had been on guard for a while.

“If you need my help, please let me know. “We will actively help.”

After returning from Chechnya, I took out a gift box that the princess had given me.

“I heard it was given to me not by someone else but by the princess. It must be expensive, right?”

I opened the box with high expectations.

“her.”

I was able to clearly feel how hot the princess of the empire was.

※ ※ ※

“The princess is hot.”

Sasha lets out an exclamation.

“Isn’t this enough to buy a capital building?”

“I guess so. But I’m not selling this.”

“of course! “Never sell it, you eat it.”

It is no greater than the elixir that I entrusted to Yul to make.

However, if you ask me how easy it is to obtain such an elixir, I can’t help but shake my head.

It is said that the duke started a business manufacturing elixirs by drawing energy from beads, but there was still a lot of demand for elixirs and a shortage of supplies.

“Do the royal family eat these great elixirs like they eat rice? “I don’t understand why you would give me something like this.”

“Well, I think the princess decided to do this with great intentions.”

“is it?”

If you think back to the third prince who tried to take the money from the sale of the purification liquid like a bully, it would not be the case that just because he was a member of the royal family, he would obtain and eat such elixirs like rice.

And the more valuable this elixir was to the princess, the better it meant that she recognized me as an important person.

“When are you going to eat?”

“I’ve never taken such an amazing elixir before, so I’m a bit at a loss as to how to take it.”

So I haven’t been able to eat what I should have eaten a long time ago.

But Sasha said something unexpected.

“Can I help you?”

“Do you know how to take it?”

“huh. I’ve never tried an elixir of this magnitude, but I have quite a bit of knowledge about it. There are cases where members end up ruined after taking the wrong elixir. “To solve it, you need to know something about elixirs.”

So, there is quite a bit of knowledge about how to take elixirs and what precautions to take.

“I would be grateful if you let me know.”

“There are many ways to take a powerful elixir. Since we won’t be able to absorb it all at once, we are asking an alchemist to split the elixir energy so we can absorb it.”

“It must have already been processed once to make this, so do you want to process it further?”

At first glance, this seems like a big risk.

Sure enough, Sasha said what she expected.

“As you might have guessed, this method is safer, but the effectiveness of the elixir is reduced.”

“I want to absorb everything if possible.”

“Well, another way would be to just swallow it whole and let it slowly dissolve in your stomach. This is possible if someone who has tried some elixirs has the know-how. “It would be great if this was possible, but it’s not something everyone can do.”

“At least it doesn’t seem like the way I would do it.”

Only someone who has tried something like that can do it.

“Another way is to take only half of this elixir, absorb the remaining elixir power, and then take the remaining elixir.”

“I think this method will also be very effective.”

“But this is the most preferred way to take the elixir. “If you ask an alchemist, it will take time and be inconvenient.”

It increases safety and reduces inconvenience… .

‘If it weren’t for Sasha, I would have used this method too, right?’

It seems that it has become people’s most preferred method of taking elixir for no reason.

“Then can I use this method?”

“Ugh~ I thought you would say this. But you know what? “Is this method similar to the loss you incur when you ask an alchemist to increase safety?”

“What, so you’re saying it’s better to stick to what you said first?”

“answer!”

Following Sasha’s words, I had no choice but to postpone taking the elixir.

I was busy announcing the banquet, so I couldn’t ask Yul, who had a blank face, such a personal request.

-Foot!

“?”

At that time, Damon laughed out loud at us.

“What is that ridicule?”

It was an explicit request for him to recognize his ridicule, so I had to pretend to know in order not to disappoint him.

“what’s the matter?”

“Is he laughing at us?”

-Give that to me. Why go back so far for something that can be easily solved? To be stupid.

“Do you want me to feed you this?”

I dared to look at what the owner had to eat, even though he was a member of the household.
