「Allen also has~ Blue one~」

「Elena too~ Elena’s is yellow~」

「Ah! Wait――」

I wasn’t able to stop Allen and Elena who took out their pearls from their item bags . They were a golf ball sized pearls the two liked and picked when we were shown to the dumping place of the Mermaid Village by Mirena-san .

「「「……!!」」」

「Ah~……」

Seeing that, Matthias-san and others completely froze .

「「Huhh~?」」

「…… Allen, Elena . Wooould you please put that in your bags at once?」

「「This, no good~?」」

「It’s not bad, but everyone is startled . Therefore, let’s hide it for a moment, okay?」

「「U~n? Got it~」」

「Good children . Allen and Elenda『Don’t have them』okay?」

「「Don’t have them!」」

「「「No, no, no!」」」

「How about, you did not see any――」

「「「That wouldn’t be possible, right!!!」」」

「That won’t work, huh……」

While the Matthias-san and others were frozen, I told the children to hide the pearls in their bags and thought of making it seem as they saw an illusion… but, that wasn’t possible, huh . Bad luck .

「Takumi-kun! What’s with that out of the common sense sized pearl! Moreover, it’s blue! And a yellow one too!? What’s going on!?」

「It was a gift」

「A, a gift!? Such outrageous article!?」

When I answered Matthias-san honestly, “I don’t believe you” expression floated on his face .

I also thought so when I asked for these pearls, but they told me that they are worthless to the Merfolk after all~

「Excellent quality, different colors, and even the size, huh…… ah~ I get it now . What Wald was talking about was this, I see~」

「Eh……?」

Wald-sama? Just what did Wald-sama tell Matthias-san?

「Well you see, I was cautioned by Wald that “Be careful of the more than unexpected mess that will go in unexpected direction” . I couldn’t imagine what he meant, but now…… he meant something like this, I can now consent」

「…………」

Ehhhhh—!

Wald-sama, what an unfair thing to say~ Moreover, Matthias-san…… he’s consenting to it……

「I did not think such outrageous articles like that would come out . I can’t precisely calculate the worth of those pearls」

Haa…… as I thought, pearls of that size have such unthinkable value~

If he found out how many of them I have…… that would be bad, right? I definitely won’t let him find out how many of those pearls I have . But, you see~……――

「Pearls of this size should be occasionally dropped by Big Shells, but…… are they that valuable?」

「Indeed, as Takumi-kun says, there are documents that state “Huge pearls can be obtained from Big Shells” . However, I have never actually heard of someone obtaining a pearl from Big Shell . Big Shells are dwelling in the depths of the sea, so I have never seen Big Shell itself before!」

…… Come to think of it, Big Shells dwell in the deep seas~ Since that’s the case, humans generally can’t visit those regions~

On the contrary, the chance to encounter Big Shells are pretty high for Merfolk who reside in the depths of the sea~

「And yet! How could the children be in a possession of pearls like that!?」

「「Uniyu~?」」

「…… Is there a problem for them having it?」

「Problem…… a problem, huh~ Let’s se…… if there’s a problem then there “is” if there isn’t, then there “isn’t”」

「……」

No, no, no, which is it in the end-!?

「It means that if this gets out in the public, it will become a problem」

「Ermm……?」

「I’m not going to let anything bad happen, so can you entrust this matter to me?」

「Y, yes, go ahead please」

Matthias-san who grinned seems to be thinking of something bad .

「Ahh, would you sell a few of these pearls to me?」

「Yes, of course」

「I see . Now then――」

Entrusting everything about the pearls to Matthias-san, he immediately strictly ordered the merchants not to disclose anything regarding the golf ball sized pearls . On the other hand, he requested to buy several of the thumb-sized pearls as a bait(?) .

Since the merchants were able to receive good quality pearls, they immediately acknowledged . It appears they preferred certain profits rather than the information about the pearls that couldn’t be properly valued .

The talks then progressed without a hitch . We sold the pearls, ordered a necklace for Rebecca-san, earrings for Grace-sama and a hair ornament for Aurora-sama . Finally, the merchants left with pleased expressions .

「Rebecca will surely be surprised by the completed necklace~ ahh! That reminds me, Takumi-san, you wanted to talk with me about something, right? I’m sorry, I have slowed you down because of my negotiations . So, what did you want to talk about?」

After the merchants left, Matthias-san remembered the reason I came to his office and inquired .

…… I have completely forgotten about my original purpose too though .

「Ah~ that’s right . Actually, I have a request for you, Matthias-san」

「Request? What is it?」

I decided to talk about the Pastel Rabbits which were my original purpose .

「Yes, it’s about these children……」

Thinking that it would be faster to show him, I took off the lid of the basket and showed Matthias-san the Pastel Rabbits inside .

「N? Pastel Rabbits? You have quite a lot of them there~」

「Indeed . We came across them in the forest, but they wouldn’t leave us alone…… would it be possible to keep these children in the mansion until I find someone to keep them?」

「…… This is something again . I don’t have a problem with that」

When I explained that the wild Pastel Rabbits wouldn’t separate from us, Matthias-san made an expression that wanted to say something but couldn’t, but he gave the permission to keep them in the mansion in the meanwhile .

That being the case, I have to quickly look for their new owners . Even though I got the permission, if I draw it out…… I would probably get too attached after all~

「But…… you are not keeping them but rather looking for keepers?」

「Yes, I have already contracted different children, so keeping even these guys would be a little bit……」

「Oh my, that so? So, have you decided whom to entrust them to?」

「No, I will look for them from now on」

「I see . In that case, I happen to know of a few people who would love to keep a Pastel Rabbit, would you mind if I talked to them?」

「Not at all, I would be very thankful for that!」

Even if I search, I don’t have that many acquaintances . I thought I had no choice but to search blindly .

And, I thought of bringing them to the Adventurer’s Guild and putting them up for the requests if I had no other choice in the end . But that…… would feel as if I was disposing of them, so I wouldn’t like to do that~ I wanted to avoid that .

Therefore, I’m really grateful to Matthias-san .

After that, thanks to Matthias-san’s referral, all of the Pastel Rabbits were handed over .

Most of them were given to sons and daughters of the nobles Matthias-san was close with .

But before that, Rebecca-san who witnessed the children playing with the Pastel Rabbits decided to keep one in the Ruven House, and Grace-sama and Aurora-sama who got the word from who knows where, each decided to keep one .

By the way, I also brought the Ice Flower Grass to Felix-sama while delivering the Pastel Rabbits, but I was completely buried in Pastel Rabbits, but I digress .
