Oh, it’s a bad guy .
Mitsuha thought so the moment she saw the customer came in .
A pretty much saying “I’m definitely the bad guy” very fat man accompanied by three people .
「Are you the shopkeeper?」See .
「Hand over the rights and purchase routes of this shop . Hmm, I’ll take you as well」
Wow~, what is this! No laws or anything! Even if someone looks like a child, you wouldn’t do that . I astonished at the excessive boldness . How much does he underestimate society . Is he a very powerful person who can do anything through connections and money?
「Umm, excuse me, but who are you?」
I’ll ask just in case .
「What, you don’t know me? This is what happens when a someone like a lass dabbles in business… Well fine, I’ll tell you . I’m Nelson Adler, President of the Adler Firm!」
「Oh, of that Adler Firm!!」Never heard of you at all .
「That’s right . This store seems to deal with fish, something call shampoo, and other unusual things . It seems to be promising even though it’s new . I’ll take it off your hands so be thankful」
Yea yea, that’s what you want . Did the pressure of Earl-sama not reach the merchants?
「Umm, there are business partners to consider so can you please come again at the same time tomorrow? We’ll call our business partner…」
「Umu, understood」
Maybe because they were in a good mood because the unreasonable request went through easily, Nelson and his men went back in good humor . He probably thought about putting pressure in various places if I refuse anyway . Did he think that I quickly gave in after thinking it was no good now that the Adler Firm is targeting me, did you think Mitsuha was a big idiot . Buss, never go that easily .
Besides, although I said 「We’ll call our business partner」, nobody said 「supplier」 .

「Mitsuha-neesama, I’m here~」
「So you came~」
Un, so you come today too, for the regular service . (定期便)
No, she comes every day, Sabine-chan .
At first she called me 『Mitsuha-sama』but as the result of my persuasion of ”stop it, my head will fly if someone hears the princess calls me sama”, and some twists and turns, we settled on 『Mitsuha-neesama』 . 『Neesama』is one word, and it’s 『sama』isn’t a problem, is the Sabine theory .
Sabine-chan quickly comes around to this side of the counter .
There is a small TV and DVD player here . Of course, it’s not visible from the customer side, and it is suspended as soon as a customer comes . A customer who enters the store at a bad time gets Sabine-chan’s 『I will kill you!』 glare . It’s unreasonable .
Sabine-chan comes every day, when I ran out of topics because I can’t talk about Japan too much and was in trouble, I carelessly turn them on and the counter’s TV and the DVD player got found out .
I couldn’t fool the hyper 『what’sthiswhat’sthiswhat’sthiswhat’sthis!!』Sabine-chan, and it came to watching it together . However, 『Magic Mirror . It brokes if someone tells it’s secret』to silence her, just in case the first things I chose to show her was something like『the little witch who loses her magic when her true identity is revealed』 and 『a story about breaking a promise and losing everything』 . No, sadly it worked!
But of course, for Sabine-chan who do not understand Japanese, I must translate and dub it . This is super tough(翻訳せずに済む), I’m relieved when it gets to a transformation scene or deathblow scene .
「Oh, Sabine-chan, please give this to the Prime Minister as soon as you return . It is a very important letter, so do not forget about it」
Although Sabine-chan is a tomboy, she a clever girl . Not someone who would fail such a request . Maybe she noticed something, she says “Un” with a serious expression while securing the letter as something important .
Chiri Rin
「Girl, I brought you a transfer agreement, sign it already」
You’re flying right from the start(初っぱなから飛ばしてますねぇ), Nelson-san!
「Mitsuha-neesama, who is this?」
Sabine-chan asked, replying from behind me .
Having just turned 10 years old, Sabine-chan has not reached the public’s eyes yet . And there was also the frugal clothes for incognito, although she’s a beautiful girl, she does not seem like royalty .
「Un, a important person from a big business, he says he wants to take me…」
「Eh~, Mitsuha-neesama’s leaving, nooo～！」
Sabine-chan, a actress’…
No, here it’s 『Sabine, a fearsome child!!』 I guess。
At the entrance of the beautiful girl who exceeds the norms of nobles, Nelson’s face obscenely loosens .
「Ho, if you don’t want to leave your sister so badly, you can come along with your sister」
「Really!」
Jumping joyfully at Nelson’s invitation is Sabine-chan .
And as Nelson-san’s wide grin got stronger…
Chiri Rin
「My apologies, did you wait?」
「Wha, Prime Minister-sama!!」
A shocked Nelson Adler .
Un, all the actors are here .
「I’m sorry to bother you, Saar-san」
「No, if it’s Mitsuha-dono invitation, I’ll come flying anytime」
（Wha! She calls the Prime Minister by name! And what’s with the Prime Minister’s humble attitude!）
Nelson began to be engulfed in a bad premonition
「Actually, this person asked me to give up this store free of charge . And he said he wanted to take me together with her… Therefore, I’ll likely to be compelled to decline the request from the King…」
「Oh? What is this about, Adler-dono?」
He pierces with a below-freezing glare .
「Wha, no, that……」
A sweating nonstop Nelson .
「Obstructing a merchant who the King has asked directly, demanding to unlawfully give away a store without payment, and blackmailing a very young girl to become one’s possession」
「Eh…, ah…, no, such a thing……」
Having his blood vanishing, Nelson passed bluish and now became whitish .
「You mean, “that’s not it”?」
「Y, yes, of course!」
「So, you won’t have anything to do with this store or the store’s staff from now on directly and indirectly?」
「Yes, I swear to the goddess!」
「Then, if there is any interference towards this shop in the future, I’ll ask Adler-dono deal with them . All the departments will receive strict instructions」
「Y, yes!!」
With this, the Adler Firm is obligated to monitor and assume responsibility for not only their subsidiaries but also all commercial parties in the capital to not meddle with General Store Mitsuha . If a disturbance is overlooked or neglected, who knows what kind of punishment will be handed down by the Prime Minister .
But at the moment Nelson complexion came back a little from being relieved that through carrying a heavy burden he managed to escape from the biggest crisis in his life .
「Oh, Adler-dono . The people from the Adler Firm do not have to come to the royal palace tomorrow . All of your firm’s persons will have their permission to enter at all times revoked」
「What……」
Nelson becomes pale again .
No entry to the royal palace means for the royal palace supplier: royal supplier Adler Firm, more than a decrease in sales . (王宮御用達、 御用商人であるアドラー商会にとっては売り上げ減少どころの話ではない。) Loss of credit . Laughing stock among fellow merchants . The damage is immeasurable no matter if you’re called the capital’s, no the kingdom’s number 1 major dealer .
「Wh, why is something like that……」
”Wasn’t becoming responsible for suppressing the other merchants concerning this store the terms of the atonement”, thought Nelson .
「Oh, about that? I don’t think even the most gentle king would want to see the face of the man who tried to obtain his young daughter or his companions」
「Wh?」
「Now, let’s return, Princess Sabine」
「Eh ~, I wanted to play with Mitsuha-neesama more~」
After the Prime Minister left dragging the reluctant Sabine-chan, only man who collapsed on the floor remained .
The president of the Adler Firm retiring and leaving everything to his son was something that happened a short while after .
Do not touch General Store Mitsuha .
It was a little later that Nelson’s blood vomiting cry reached all the merchants of the capital, no the kingdom .
「Hey Sabine-chan, would you like to succeed my 『Kurenai ken’nyou』 title」
「No way! It somehow feels unpleaset . Mitsuha-neesama, you want to push it on me to just relinquish that title」
What excellent senses! Sabine, a fearsome child!!
