Chapter 16: Party
I talk to one nobleman and one merchant after another. The nobleman who had asked me to meet his daughter when we met at another party stopped talking about it when he saw Noah sitting next to me, smiling.
It was probably due in large part to the fact that Lemech-san treated me as a prince and paid me respect. That may have made him misunderstand the relationship between Noah and me on his own.
And that also affected my relationship with the nobles and merchants in many other ways.
"Oh, so this is the potato that restores magic power, it tastes great, I'd love to have it in my territory.”
“Yes, I agree, potions do not taste good.”
“Thank you very much. I'm glad you like it. I have already unloaded these potatoes to the Harrison Trading Company, so I would be happy to discuss business with you and Edward-san later.”
The nobles praised us as they ate the potatoes from our kitchen. I’ve suddenly turned the hand around. But I'm practically factionless.
If I were to join a faction that was hostile to the Cassius family, my position could worsen because I was doing business with another faction of nobles. If that happened, the local nobles like them would have a hard time making a living here. The fact that I was on good terms with the Cassius family meant that they could do business with me without worry. And the more they know about my products, the easier it will be for the higher-ranking nobles to become interested in them.

"Oh, so this is the super mithril alloy! It's so light, yet it has the properties of mithril that allows magic to pass through it......."
“It's amazing. ...... If we can make armor and weapons out of this, it will change the war situation.”
“You're the famous Bowman. Did you make something like this. ......”
“Yes, this metal is lighter and stronger than iron, so it can be used for many purposes!”
Over there, Noel and Bowman's presentation of the super mithril alloy seemed to be in full swing. Noel is supporting Bowman, who doesn't like to be seen in public.
“They make a good pair, don't they?”
“Yeah, well, me and you are a good pair too.”
“Yes. ... more than that... they’re going to talk about weapons after all......”
It was Vigna who made my face burn a little, but I quickly regained my composure and replied with a little melancholy.
“You can't blame them. They know I defeated Kyle and the others and they already know I overturned an overwhelming power differential. Someday, the guns will be in someone else's hands and there will be cheap guns on the market."
"Grace......"

Vigna looks at me with anxiety as I spoke. She doesn’t have to worry so much… I’m prepared to use the power of world library to make weapons.
As we were discussing this, the time for dancing arrived. Why do noblemen like to dance, I wonder? I held out my hand to Vigna and she shook her head.
What? You're going to reject me?
“Don't look so sad. Just dance with Noah today. ...... You know what I mean."
"Ah, well, that's just......"
The reaction of the noblemen and merchants earlier made it clear that they were not surprised. They misunderstood the relationship between me and Noah.
Well, I know it’s the right thing to do, but.......
“But I don't like the fact that it seems as though I’m using her.......”
“It's also a good thing for me, because if word gets out about me and you, Grace-sama, I won't get any marriage proposals. I've not been here long enough to do any research and I haven't even bathed with Galatea! Or do you not want to dance with me?"
I mumbled and before I knew it, Noah was standing behind me, smiling. No problem, I guess, if you put it that way.

Then I danced with her. I wondered what it would be like, but her dancing was so polite and she had taught me so well, that I was rather led by her. And most of all, her breasts were swaying......
