The Swordsman Called the Countless Swords Sorcerer

Byakuya Just around the time Ted and their "Mysterious Stars" left Zimbaril Shokai. Aldis was sitting on a sofa at the reception of the Litte company, facing Marida, the chairman of the company.

"By the way, Aldis. Did you bring the example thing?"

Release his cup of tea and gently place it on the table, and Aldis looks straight up at the woman's eyes and replies shortly.

"Oh"

"That's good, so can you show it right away?"

Marrieda offers both hands while smiling like a merchant, full of affection. It's an adorable way to make sweets like a child makes sweets, but she's a merchant who runs a company. If you are deceived by the appearance, you will be hurt.

"before that--"

A black-haired boy opens his mouth, gazing at a piercing gaze.

"I'll give you a condition."

"conditions?"

Even with sudden words, the woman's smile does not collapse.

"Yes, that's the condition. I've definitely brought what you want. But it's up to you to hand it over."

"... What are the specific conditions?"

"First, let me talk about what you know, and give it to me when I've heard it until I'm satisfied."

First, show Marrieda's card. I will show this card later. That's what Aldis is saying.

"Isn't that a bit too good?"

"I heard you and brought you the goods you wanted by the date you wanted. At this point you have already made concessions. Isn't it your turn to give up now?"

"Oh, Aldis, are you going to negotiate with your professional merchant?"

"It's bad, but it's not as straightforward as trading with the other person's asking price."

Marrieda's eyes were smiling and she could illuminate her eyes.

"Hmm"

Marrieda leaned on the back of the sofa with her arms crossed.

"aside from that?"

"You said what I brought," I need it to calm down the sword. "

"Yeah, you said."

Drinker: "Attend where you actually use it. If you're going to use it for anything else, you can't give it to you. If you don't take these two things, it's a break."

The conditions that Aldis sets do not affect the end result. Regardless of the order, Ardis still gets the information, and Nere's hair goes into the hands of Marida.

But passing only information to Aldis first increases the risk of trading for Marida. Rebellion If Aldis made an appointment after getting information, she would have lost her unilaterally. Unlike goods with shape, once the intangible thing of information is provided to the other party, it cannot be recovered.

Seeking information first is a testimony to Aldis's distrust of Marrieda, and knowing that it does not matter if she does not trust Aldis. That's why.

Aldis can't rely on information obtained from people who do not trust him.

Authenticity In the case of Aldis, when information is obtained from a partner who is reluctant to meet such conditions, the information itself must be doubted. Itching Aldis did not need it from the start, including unreliable information. There is nothing when you cancel the deal.

"Huh ... well, I guess I can't help it, because the transaction is only because of credit."

When breathing lightly, Marrieda gently shakes her head as she gives up. Gray hair shook slightly.

"Riokai. I'm okay with that condition. The first condition is to take this concession. I'm going to have the second condition originally because I was going to be present. Is it the same? "

Marida raised his hands gently as he surrendered.

"I hope Aldis is sincere in the deal."

He narrowed his large eyes and deepened his smile, instantly switching attitudes.

"Well, it means that the negotiations are closed. Suppose we pass the information first, as per the conditions. If I know, I will answer without cloaking. What do you want to ask?"

Aldis immediately asks Marida, who asks her correctness of residence.

"First of all, we need to ask this, but we can't go on ..."

Open the mouth again, with the momentary reservoir in between.

"Who are you?"

When asked by a simple Aldis, Marida turns her large maroon eyes to the ceiling.

"Well, that's a very vague question. That's what I mean. I don't want to ask my name, age, family structure or three size."

"No wonder"

That's not what Aldis wants to ask. Marrieda probably understands that. He seemed to wonder how he explained.

"That's right ... Aldis wants to dream too?"

"... Well, sometimes I see. What happened?"

"I'm dreaming too, but ... it's a bit different."

"Are you different from others?"

Arata ridiculous "Yeah. The dreams that ordinary people see recreate the events that happened in the past or reflect scenes, but my dreams do not reflect that but" the events that can happen "ぃ "

"Is that ... a foresight dream?"

"Hmm ... Is that a little different? Doesn't it just happen to be what you've been dreaming of?"

"... how is it different?"

Suspicion Aldis wrinkled between the eyebrows, expressing a strange expression. Because he didn't understand what he said.

"It might be easier to say that the repetition of the rehearsals. I take some action in the dream for the future events I dreamed of, and there is a response to it. When you encounter the same scene in the real world, if you take the same action as a dream, you will get the same result. ''

"... isn't that a dream of witness after all?"

"In my case, I have the same dream over and over again. If my behavior changes, the result will also change? For example, a dream walking on the road and a pebble falling in front of me If you kick a pebble in your dream, you hit a stray dog and get chased, so you're going to have the same dream the next day? A child was walking and kicked a pebble, which hit my foot and injured me, and after a while I came across a similar situation in reality. "

After a while, Marida speaks to the tea.

"The action I took at that time had the same effect as the dream. I kicked a pebble and my dog was chased, and if I passed it I hurt my foot. Just like a dream."

It was hard to believe.

But that's the same with Aldis. After honestly revealing my circumstances, how many people will truly believe in me?

That is why Aldis did not affirm or deny Marida's story, but listened silently.

"That means ... can the future be at will?"

"It's not that good."

The shadow falls slightly on Marrieda's smile.

"I don't always dream about the scene I want to see. It's a familiar everyday place or a place I don't recognize. First, I don't know if it will happen tomorrow or years later. Of course, to some extent I have many dreams that I can guess.

"It's only at that age that we can manage so many firms with that power."

"That's right. I can say that thanks to this power. I wonder if it is because of such power."

While closing her maroon eyes, a woman merchant spoke a word that could be taken as a weak sound.

"It was because of that power that you were as if you knew me."

"That kind of thing"

"I understand your abilities, and then ask, what is your purpose? The purpose isn't just to get that sword that I've used to find out with Cyril. ? "

Aldis does not yet know what the woman's purpose is. However, it was a reaction when Cyril handed his sword, a way of showing interest in Aldis, and he could not really receive Marrieda's words.

"Is it an objective? Yes, there are three objectives in this regard, one is to get the sword of the example, and I am to meet Aldis, and finally to bring Cyril and Aldis together. Yeah. "

Marrieda counts as she answers.

"Are you Cyrillic?"

Two of the three goals are still understandable. But I didn't know what it meant to bring Cyril and Aldis together.

"What's the point? What's the point of meeting Cyril with me?"

"Well, I'm sorry. I don't really know that. I guess that's definitely the answer. I see Aldis and Cyril together in other dreams, Above all, this choice finally ends my dream. "

"What is it over?"

"As I said, my dream isn't just one time. I make the same choice, but the same result, but another choice, it's a different result. This is the second time I've met Aldis and found it through trial and error, and this is the second time I've met Aldis in reality, but in my dream I've met and talked hundreds of times, so I didn't even feel like I've met for the first time before. "

Marrieda laughs out loud.

"Again, back to my dream I have two ends. One is out of time. The other is when I get the best result."

Marida said to Aldis, raising her index fingers in order.

"I stopped dreaming about this six months ago, which means that I've come up with the best option."

"Does the 'best option' include sending a child like Cyrill to the forest of Caucas alone?"

Going, "I couldn't help it because it was the only one. At first I tried to send you other people to get in touch with you. It all ends up failing because I can't make contact or end up with it, and if I come myself, the company will be hijacked while I'm away, and I'll try over a dozen patterns and only contact Aldis Only Kirill could do it. ''

"Isn't it a good idea to talk to Cyril about the situation?"

"I tried it, of course. I didn't believe it. I ended up being suspicious and couldn't get on this story. Based on my experience so far, most of the places where I talked about my dreams It doesn't work. Most people don't believe it, and if you do, you won't see results.

"So, isn't it a problem now that I'm listening?"

"Hmm ... this is the only time it's not going to be bad to talk to you about dreams. I'm wondering ..."

Apparently Marrieda was seriously wondering. The smile that stuck like a mask loosened, and her real face was glimpsed from underneath.

Road bank: Anyway, the reason I let Cyril go alone was that it wouldn't lead to a good result. If I put Cyril on guard and set off, I would be destroyed by a monster somehow along the way That's why if you increase the number of escorts, you will arrive safely at the kingdom of Nagras, but you will just walk into the Caucasus forest and destroy it. However, if you reduce it a little, you will be able to hire a decent escort this time, so you will arrive at the archeological site without meeting Aldis, so you can not find the hidden stairs and you will fail. If you leave without doing it, you will not be able to do anything after arriving at Gran, of course.

Oh, and sighs a lot and Marida continues.

Trial and error "Do you know how many times I have redone? It may not be up to one hundred times, but after reaching a number of times, the conclusion is that" I tell Cyril the original purpose , "With the financing to Lovell Shokai," "to have only a minimum of road banks," and "to leave alone." Finally, Cyril returned safely. `` And I succeeded in bringing that sword and you again. ''
