Chapter 14. Party Preparation
“Kushun……!!”
I was resting in my room after taking a bath when I sneezed. I thought I might have caught a cold, but when I lit the fireplace, Vigna came in after a knock. She was holding a steamy cup in her hand.
“Good evening, I’ve made some coffee, would you like to drink it with me?”
“Oh, that’s unusual. Feel free to share……”
“Yeah, I was just worried about my dirty cat catching a cold.”
“Hmmm!!”
Oh damn, She knew everything. I’m breaking out in a cold sweat at the thought of being killed, but she just smiles strangely. What’s going on? Is it one of those things where you have to be nice to the condemned before you kill them?
“I have a favor to ask Grace, if you don’t mind.”
Ad
“What is it? I’d appreciate it if you didn’t torture me……”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. …… I need you to get me a dress. Can you do that?”
“Yeah, I don’t mind, but …… I think you looked pretty good in that dress last time.”
I remember the dress she wore to the dance at Edward’s place. I liked it because it matched the color of Vigna’s hair.
“Fufu, Thank you. But it’s not mine. It’s the dress I remember when I first danced with you in a formal setting. I’m going to wear it again this time, so you can look forward to it.”
Then she sipped her coffee, blushing a little happily. I didn’t go along with her, but I sipped it too. The bitterness spreads in my mouth.
It’s good that they already know that I was there.
“And, Vigna…… I’m not going to take another wife.”
“Yeah, that’s fine for now. I’ve learned from Noah that you’re serious about making me your wife…… It seems like you’re holding back even though you like big tits.”
What did the two of them talk about after that? And there’s one thing I need to deny.
“No, I don’t really like big tits……”
Ad
“Lie, I know you’ve been ogling Sarah’s cleavage for a while now.”
“Ugh…..”
No. Can it be helped? It’s a man’s instinct, you know. With that in mind, Vigna stared at me with seriousness in her eyes.
“Noah is doing her best for this place and I think we can trust her. So if that girl ever really likes you, please accept her feelings for you.”
“No, but ……
“If you really don’t want to, I won’t force you. But please keep in mind that I don’t care. Also… I would definitely rather have Noah than a stranger in a political marriage with you.”
“I’ll think about it…..”
I nodded as I ruminated on her words. Well, I’m sure there’ll be more engagement stories to come. Still, Vigna is willing to let me marry another, but she seems to be caught in something herself.
She didn’t seem to want to talk about it anymore and we both reported on what we had been up to recently. Training seemed to be going well and the cannons had been put to practical use, so things seemed to have settled down.
And so we rested together for the first time in a long time.

“Galatea, Noel, how’s the preparation going? Bowman, are you sure you’re ready for the presentation of the super mithril alloy? Agni, do you think the public bathrooms will be ready?”
“I sense excitement and tension in Master. This is a herbal tea with psychological suppression effects. Please drink it.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Galatea made me a cup of tea, giggling and laughing as she saw how nervous I was. I drank it and took a deep breath.
No, it’s okay to be nervous, isn’t it? I’ve been an outlier since I was a child, so I’m not used to social gatherings like this and this time I’m the host. I’ve invited some nobles and other merchants via Edward-san
If this party goes well, the sales channels for potatoes, which have the effect of restoring magic power and super mithril alloys will increase rapidly. This would make Asgard a wealthy place.
Then we can advertise and bring in refugees.
“Master, you have a visitor. Edward-san is here.”
“Thank you for your hard work Noel. Let him through.”
I nodded, and Edward came up behind Noel. It seems that his friends Calco-san and Salem-san are also with him. I feel much more relaxed when I see familiar faces.
“Thank you for inviting me today, Grace-sama. I’ve been looking forward to this day.”
“Thank you for coming, Edward-san. I’m exhausted from all the preparations.”
“- Haha, you’ll be fine as usual, Grace-sama. If the potatoes and ores become more popular among the nobles, I will be able to make a lot of money for Calco and Salem. I’m looking forward to it.”
“Don’t put extra pressure on me……”
Edward smiles apologetically when I said so weakly. But he said something that put even more pressure on me.
“But this time, the head of the Cassius family is also here. It sounds like a pinch, but it’s a chance. If we can sell Asgard’s products to the leader of this region, even the nobles who are currently reluctant to try anything new will show a sudden interest.”
“Yes, I will do my best.”
Yes, we had originally planned to invite only the nobles of lesser status, but the Cassius family asked us to invite them to the party. It was probably Noah’s doing.
I can only thank her for that. And I’m going to seize this opportunity for Asgard.
“And …… Grace-sama is still single, you know. I’m sure many such offers will come in the conversation. It’s not for me to say, but please don’t make the mistake of choosing a faction.”
“No, I’m ……”
I was about to say that I was going to marry Vigna, when the door opened.
“Wow, you’re beautiful after all…….”
“Hmmm, isn’t it natural? Am I not your lover?”
The one who came in was Vigna, who had changed into a red dress. She answers my words with her face full of color. She’s cute, Oi.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen you, Edward. I think you don’t need to worry about that because there is another woman that Grace is escorting this time. Noah, come on in.”
“Yes …… that …… I’m a little embarrassed because it’s been a while since I’ve worn something like this……”
That said, Noah came in with golden hair and a blue based dress that contrasted with Vigna’s. But what caught my eye more was the ……
“It’s huge.”
Ad
Yes, it’s her chest. No, I thought it was great to begin with, but the emphasis on the cleavage was really bad. And now I think Edward-san noticed the size too……
When I looked at him with that in mind, he was awkwardly looking in the direction of the day after tomorrow.
“I’d like you to be my escort today, Grace-sama. I’m sure there will be fewer women willing to powder you if I’m here.”
She looked a little embarrassed, but said so. It’s true that if I escort her, the daughter of the Cassius family, it will be more difficult to talk about such things.
This is what Vigna was talking about in the bathroom…….
“Thank you, Vigna.”
“You can thank me for that. But you’re looking at …… too much.”
“Ow!”
She then pinched my thigh. Noah chuckles at that.
“Fufu, I guess we don’t have to worry about that.”
Looking at us, Edward said so and smiled.
