【058】
The Bank Manager keeps repeatedly saying I have no manners, so now I’m genuinely curious.
Who on earth could it be?
Who would do something like that for me?
“So those are the only conditions?”
“Ah, no. Superti said she would invest in whatever products you choose to invest in….”
“If the investment succeeds, we could cover the losses.”
“Exactly! If you select one of our bank’s products, Miss, that would be perfect! Or we could even create an entirely new product for you.”
Hmm, I need to organize this.
The moment I thought that, Upiros’s crimson text burst forth.
【Summary of the Imperial Bank Fasayen Branch Investment Failure】
(1)
Bank Manager Dickins squandered so much money that he couldn’t pay interest to his depositing customers!
(2)
If the Household Master of Fasayen finds out about this, he’ll be fired from his position immediately! Boom!
(3)
While desperately trying to keep it hidden, an investor—whether angel or devil—appeared!
(4)
But this investor said they would invest together in whatever products Superti Fasayen chooses.
‘So if I say I want to invest in a bakery… will they do it?’
I tilted my head, and Upiros laughed.
[Of course! They definitely will! You’re the one in charge here, young star! ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و]
…This is good, right?
It’s a bit unsettling since I don’t know who they are, but still.
“I can’t avoid reporting this matter.”
Mikard, who released his grip on my collar, flopped down onto the sofa.
“It’s not that Shu will be harmed… but it’s important to figure out how they knew about our youngest.”
“That… well, they said something like this.”
“What did they say?”
“A chick, chirp chirp chirp….”
A song came from the uncle’s mouth.
Watching the Bank Manager sing “chirp chirp chirp” with his eyes squeezed shut in embarrassment, I suddenly remembered someone.
Could it be?!
“They said thank you for helping when I was scared, and that this was repayment.”
“Rasifer?!”
A name I’d forgotten suddenly popped out.
I cried out again in excitement.
“It has to be Rasifer!”
I wanted to see him again, and now we’re connected like this!
The Bank Manager quietly held something out toward me as I bounced up and down.
“This is something an investor asked me to deliver.”
“Oh my!”
A small box wrapped in purple velvet.
Inside it was—
“A paper crane-shaped hairpin…?”
The entire piece was adorned with diamonds.
Even I, who knew little about jewels, could see it was a magnificent work of art.
As I picked up the hairpin and held it to the light, I discovered a small note rolled up on the floor.
Hello, I missed you.
I made this myself. I wanted to give it to you. I’d be happy if you’d use it well until we meet again.
Oh, and I hope you’ll use the Bank Manager to get whatever you want.
Since you won’t be able to move the Household’s assets yet.
So she had such wonderful craftsmanship!
Well, being as beautiful as she is, it makes sense she’d be good at making beautiful things.
“That’s a suspicious item. Give it to your Older Brother.”
“No way. It’s mine.”
Mikard reached out his hand, but I hid the hairpin behind my back.
This is truly mine. I can’t give it to anyone.
I could compromise on most things. Even food tasted better when shared with everyone.
‘But… not this.’
I wanted to keep it.
Not because it sparkled or was beautiful, but because she made it for me with her own hands.
That’s why this paper crane-shaped hairpin was precious.
‘Hmm, what I want is…’
After placing the pin in my hair, I cleared my throat deliberately.
“Right, I have conditions too.”
“Hehe, conditions…?”
“Yeah. Instead of me choosing a prize, I want you to regularly sponsor the Kindergarten.”
[The Water Spirit King ‘■■■■’ advises that you should become an official sponsor rather than a temporary one.]
“An official sponsor.”
As I added this decisively, the Bank Manager’s expression brightened.
“Of course! That much is nothing! Once this matter is resolved! I’ll take care of everything!”
“Yes. And there are many stray cats on the streets.”
“S-stray cats?”
“Feed the street cats and abandoned dogs, and find them new owners too.”
According to the note Rasifer left, I couldn’t do these things on my own.
But if the Bank Manager did it?
“You’ve got a sharp mind, Rasifer Laximon.”
Mikard murmured beside me.
“You’re right—having the Bank Manager handle Kindergarten sponsorships is far better than us at the Mansion. The oversight would be proper, and he’d be able to identify needs more carefully.”
Tap, tap.
Mikard, sitting with his legs crossed, tapped the armrest of the sofa.
“The real question is why he would create such an opportunity in the first place. Why is he showing so much interest in our youngest? That’s what bothers me…”
“Because I helped him so he wouldn’t cry…?”
“No, Shu. That man couldn’t possibly be that naive. He must have some ulterior motive.”
But that’s not it.
The Rasifer I met was incredibly beautiful, and he was even timid.
Why does everyone speak ill of Rasifer?
“Ahem. Well then… since you’re here anyway, where would be best to invest…? I have a list right here!”
Whoosh!
The Bank Manager, having hastily straightened his disheveled appearance, thrust a document toward me.
The scroll was longer than my height, so I unrolled it on the table first.
“Hmm.”
But what would I know about this?
As I pondered, I glanced toward empty space.
‘Please help me! Luck Spirit King!’
Somehow, I felt like investing in whatever the Luck Spirit King pointed out would work.
[Oh my, our young contestant! You still have an unused “Well Done” stamp! ヾ(´︶`*)ﾉ♬]
Ah, that’s right!
I had received something after learning Shapasi’s name.
[I shall open the Eden Shop for you. Tada!]
Light sparkled before my eyes, and the Eden Shop opened.
Let’s try our luck!
The Luck Spirit King will divine for us.
Finding an investment product that guarantees success (1 use) for just 1 stamp!
Effect
Selects a product that can generate substantial profits.
Warning
Do not share this information with too many people.
‘Yes, I’ll buy this.’
Thank goodness I still had one stamp left!
[The Luck Spirit King ‘■■■■■■’ smiles shyly.]
[Finally, it’s my turn. Let me see…]
If the investment succeeds, I can earn a lot of money.
Then I can do whatever I want with it!
Anyway, Cedric said that having more personal spending money is always better.
[The Luck Spirit King ‘■■■■■■’ points.]
[The Mizu Trading Company and the Calabor Mine. These two look good.]
I spoke exactly as the Luck Spirit King had indicated.
“The Mizu Trading Company and the Calabor Mine. I want to invest in both of these. And this is confidential. Shh.”
“Yes, understood! Shall I also set up an investment account under the young lady’s name?”
The Bank Manager, beaming with delight, rolled up the scroll again and chuckled. I nodded in agreement.
“Then invest mine as well. We’ll each put in 50% of our assets.”
“Oh, Mikard, you’ll be investing too?”
“Yeah. If we’re going to suffer losses, better to suffer them together. Losing alone is depressing, but losing together is less depressing, right?”
Mikard seemed a bit skeptical of my choice.
Well, he didn’t know this decision came from the Luck Spirit King, so I couldn’t blame him.
“Phew.”
Somehow, it felt like I’d just accomplished something monumentally important.
I found myself exhaling a sigh of relief for no particular reason.
‘Didn’t I just act rather grown-up?’
But why hadn’t Rasifer come to meet me directly? Why contact me through the Bank Manager instead?
‘I wanted to see him again.’
I touched my hairpin with my maple-leaf-shaped hand.
‘Laximon is one of the Four Great Ducal Houses! So if a friendly match is held, I’ll be able to meet him….’
When that happens, I absolutely must ask him about today’s events.
“Wait, didn’t we come here to check how much is in your account in the first place?”
Just as I was about to stand up after finishing my bread.
At Mikard’s words, I sat back down.
Right. I’d completely forgotten about that!
“Please wait a moment. I’ll show you the contents of the vault using a magic stone.”
The Bank Manager hurried off somewhere, and moments later.
“…!”
The last piece of bread I’d been holding slipped from my fingers and fell.
Gold coins.
A sea of gold coins glittered brilliantly before my eyes.
I could swim through it!
