“……”

“……”

Now, a great tension pervades in the air.

In the current situation, the villainous merchant is sitting on his knees, and in front of him is Aina, standing on her knees with her arms crossed.

I can hear the gurgling sound.

“It’s unusual for Aina to be so angry.”

“When I was traveling, I never showed that much emotion either.”

The cool and proud Aina must have been very unhappy about being deceived.

“Well, what do you have to say for yourself?”

“Umm, I’m sorry. I didn’t expect you to be from the hero party.”

“Do you judge people by their looks? If you were a real businessman, you would judge people by more than their looks.”

“I have no words to reply. But in my defense, it was Count Serawyn who told me that adventurers wouldn’t know the difference between cheap and expensive goods.”

“That means you’re making fun of us too, right?”

“Hee! I-I’ve never thought that way before!”

I felt like a fool, and something pissed me off.

“If you cooperate with us, you’ll feel a little less guilty. You’ll help us, right?”

“Of course I will! What do you want me to do?”

“That’s easy. I need you to sell these seeds to Count Serawyn.”

I gave him the seeds of the parasitic flower that Alice had given me.

“These seeds are from a flower that blooms in the demon world. You may have to deal with the demon race from now on, and I want you to sell them to Count Serawyn as you see fit.”

“I understand.”

After that, the merchant successfully sold the seeds to Count Serawyn.

Now, what will happen?
