Wishing for Coffee
The 7th Army Corps splendidly removed the enemy knight orders that captured a.r.s.enum .
The original plan was to ride that momentum and invade all the way until Rosaria’s royal capital Leazas, but that was rejected on the spot .
Apparently the enemy army just now was no more than the Multiple King Alliance’s advance party .
Currently, the numbers of the Multiple King Alliance that have gathered in Rosaria’s royal capital have swelled to the tens of thousands .
Naturally, Sefiro the 7th Army Corps’ commander isn’t foolish .
Proposing not, “Here let’s temporarily withdraw and watch the state of affairs” she ordered, “Everyone return to your posts . ”
When I heard that, I first withdrew my troops and headed back .
When I returned to my mansion in Ivalice, I immediately went into the office .
Even without saying anything, respectfully bowing, brewing a cup of black tea, and putting in 2 sugars and bringing it to me is Sati .
A fragrance and thoughtfulness I hadn’t experience for while in the battlefield .
As far as the battlefield goes, there were beautiful women .
The witch of unknown age Sefiro, and the Lilin Lilith .
Their looks were lovely, but they couldn’t be modestly considerate like Sati .
I wonder if they can’t brew a cup of tea .
Not to mention that they couldn’t bake delicious cookies like Sati .
While thinking so, I stuff my cheeks with Sati’s cookies .
A sweet smell and the smell of b.u.t.ter spread .
For the previous world they were too common, and I couldn’t grasp their worth, but sweets are a luxury in this world .
Commoners couldn’t readily eat them .
Being able to eat them daily is modest luxury as a ruler I suppose .
While thinking that, I enjoy the black tea’s aroma, but as I thought I missed that flavor .
“Haa, I want to drink coffee . ”
Sati responds to that remark .
“Coffee?”
“Ahh, you heard me, huh . I intended to mutter that with a quiet voice though . ”
“Sati’s ears don’t miss Goshujin-sama’s words no matter how quiet . ”
Sati says as she floats a smile .
“……that’s scary . ”
I have to be careful about talking to myself from now on .
While thinking that, I explain about coffee .
“Coffee is an amber drink . You boil black beans, no, it seems originally they’re red . Well, that doesn’t matter . It’s a delicious drink that smells very nice . ”
“But, black tea also smells nice……”
“It’s a different aroma from that . Black tea has a kind of high cla.s.s feel, coffee is what I wonder . A more plebeian aroma . ”
“Haa, plebeian……?”
Sati can’t seem to fathom it .
Well, that’s natural . It’s difficult to explain coffee’s aroma to a person who hasn’t smelled it’s aroma once .
“If I at least had the actual bean . ”
“Do you plan to produce coffee this time?”
“No, as one would expect that’s impossible . You can only harvest coffee in the south . It’s different if a polytunnel is made and warmed with magic, but in that case it’ll come at a cost . ”
“Then it would be fine to import it from the south wouldn’t it?”
“If the coffee bean exists, that would be possible . ”
“Does it not exist?”
“It probably doesn’t . I haven’t caught sight of it in Rosaria’s royal capital . ”
I finished saying that, but an unexpected personage denies that .
“If it’s coffee, it’s in circulation in the south . ”
Coming to b.u.t.t in was our superior Sefiro .
She came into the office without knocking .
This mansion was made so that only chosen demons could enter, but unfortunately she’s a chosen demon .
Therefore she could brazenly enter my office, but I wish she would at least knock .
“What is it, that expression, like ‘You should at least knock’ . ”
Furthermore this person’s intuition is sharp .
Even though she shouldn’t even be able to see my expression with the mask, it seems she perfectly understands my thoughts .
Within my heart I raise both hands in surrender, and inquire of the real meaning of her remark .
“Is it true that coffee exists?”
“It’s true . I’ve seen it at Zen.o.bia in the south . A drink where you grind those black beans right . I drank it once, but it was bitter . It didn’t suit my taste . ”
“That’s it . I see, it’s in this world too……”
“You like that bitter stuff I see . ”
“Well, that’s right . ”
I yearn for caffeine, even if I say that I wonder if it’ll get through to this person .
Recently, when it becomes afternoon I’m tempted by drowsiness .
In the previous world I would drink coffee and feel refreshed, but unfortunately I couldn’t get that effect with black tea .
“At any rate, that there’s coffee is good news . I want to enjoy that aroma after a long time . ”
Thinking so, I tried to immediately call Jiron and order him to prepare coffee .
But––––, that was stopped by Sefiro my superior .
“You rely on that pig for everything . Don’t you think you should occasionally figure something out with your own power?”
“No, for the time being I’m Ivalice’s lord . In addition this is the frontline . I can’t go away . ”
“If there’s a superior who’s too competent, the subordinates won’t grow up, do you know that famous saying?”
“……I know it . Deeply . ”
My relationship with the witch before me might be a good example .
I feel like with Sefiro’s motivationlessness, while compensating for her carelessness I became diligent and acc.u.mulated various experiences .
In short, she wants to say that if the superior does everything themselves, their subordinates won’t grow .
“There’s quite the excellent ones gathered among your subordinates . That orc called Jiron isn’t capable, but he’s honest in his duties and is faithful to you . You found a good subordinate . ”
“Say that to the person themselves . He’ll cry in happiness . ”
“Making sure of your subordinates abilities is part of the superior’s capability . ”
“Besides, The ryujin Jigan is level and calm, and a capable commanding officer . That girl Lilith isn’t smart, but she has power to compensate for that . In addition they still have room to grow . It’s not bad to leave this town to them for a while here . ”
“In short, even if I leave them to house sit it’s not a problem?”
“Exactly . ”
Sefiro states .
“That you’ll say that much is not just to make me head to Zen.o.bia because I have to go buy coffee right?”
“No way . I’m not that whimsical . While you’re at it buy me a milky lotion that’s good for your skin . ”
Sefiro jokes, but I immediately understand it was a joke .
Since she immediately makes a serious expression .
“––––I want to have you head to the south’s trade city Zen.o.bia . As Maou-sama’s proxy . ”
I immediately guess with that expression .
“––––I see, in other words, buying coffee is a pretext, and there’s some secret purpose, right . ”
“As expected of Ronberg’s grandson, you have good judgment . ”
“I have a long relation with the commander after all . ”
“Well then, do you have an idea of the content?”
“It’s a guess, but do you mind?”
“Umu, go ahead . ”
She gives me permission with a tone like a teacher .
“The commander, no, probably Maou-sama wants to trade with the south’s “Commerce Alliance”‘s leading power Zen.o.bia, right?”
“Hoh, your basis?”
“Our army’s financial state . ”
I a.s.sert .
“Currently, it can’t be said that our army’s financial state is abundant . Due to Maou-sama’s reign, it’s far richer than in the past, but even then it’s not enough . In particular the food shortage is remarkable . ”
“Thanks to you Ivalice’s agricultural production has swelled though . ”
“Even then it’s still not enough to reach everyone in the army . Since it takes time for agriculture to bear fruit . ”
“That’s true . ”
“In addition from the start the regions the Maou Army have occupied aren’t very rich regions, and there’s more industrial cities than agriculture . Due to the war the fields and such are ruined . Eventually it’ll fall into a severe food shortage won’t it . ”
“In that case like a Maou Army, we should requisition from the population, no, there’s also the option of pillaging though?”
“Maou-sama isn’t that foolish right . Even though the management of the occupied territories is going well with great pains, I don’t think she would commit that kind of foolish undertaking . ”
“Then where do you think Maou-sama’s aim is? No, what would you do?”
Sefiro’s voice is unusually serious .
Or perhaps this witch might not have grasped Maou-sama’s intent either .
This person is intellectual and shrewd demon, but after all she’s a demon . He way of thinking is with demons as a basis .
“Most likely Maou-sama wants to sell the excess industrial goods, in particular the dwarf craftsman made jewel work and handicrafts to the south, and with that money obtain the south’s abundant food . ”
As I state that, Sefiro, “……fumu” together with that she sighs .
I understand with her answering with that att.i.tude, but I ask just in case .
“So Commander, is my answer correct?”
Sefiro doesn’t affirm or deny .
“……I don’t like it . ––––I don’t like it, but you said the same things as Maou-sama . ”
“In other words, is it fine to say that answer is 100 points?”
Without answer that clearly either, Sefiro states with her usual childish tone .
“At any rate, it’s Maou-sama’s orders . 7th Army Corps Vice Commander Ike . In my place, head to Zen.o.bia in the south, and tie a treaty of commerce with the Commerce Alliance!”
Sefiro finishes with that, and a little sulkily returns .
She leaves behind a threat like remark .
“Fun, if you fail, you’ll start anew under me . ”
Like so–––– .
And then she chants transition magic and disappears .
Seeing that, Sati who is waiting beside me timidly asks .
“Is it fine? Sefiro-sama was angry though . ”
“That wasn’t being angry . She was sulking . ”
“Sulking?”
“When I give a exemplar answer that person becomes perverse . ”
“I wonder why? Goshujin-sama derived the correct answer right?”
“She still thinks of me as a child I suppose . ”
“A child……, is it?”
“Ahh, the commander and I have known each other since I was a child . It seems she’s under the impression that she still has to lead me . ”
“I see, that wasn’t being angry, that was sulking . ”
Sati floats a convinced expression, and reservedly laughs .
“Certainly it’s as Goshujin-sama’s has said, she’s a childish person . ”
“Put nicely she still has childlike innocence . Put badly she’s bratty . ”
I sarcastically mutter, but Sati suddenly stops laughing and mutters this .
“Even so––––”
Sati says and continues .
“Sefiro-sama knows the Goshujin-sama from when you were a child, right?”
“That’s right but?”
When she hears that, Sati says something unusual .
“I’m a little jealous of Sefiro-sama . No, envious . ”
“Why?”
“I mean, I haven’t seen Goshujin-sama’s figure from when you were a child after all . I’m sure you were cute, I imagine . ”
“……cute, huh . ”
Is that a compliment I wonder .
It’s not a word that’s fitting of a key executive of the Maou Army, but certainly I had a a sweet childhood .
While I recall that, I make preparations to head south .
