“Then I’ll have the contract money delivered tomorrow.”
“A contract money?”
“It’s a form of payment that we use when we have an ongoing relationship with a particular guild.”
“I see.”
I was curious, and the princess explained it to me from the side.
I nodded and agreed.
I thought about it for a while and then looked at the Countess again.
“There is one thing I would like to ask you rather than the contract money.
“What is it? Anything you want.
“I would like you to introduce me to a supplier of food for the dragons.”
“supplier of food?”
I looked at the Countess’s lardon.
The first time I saw him, I could tell at a glance that he was very pale.
For both humans and dragons, the color of their blood and their appearance depends largely on their diet.
It was easy to imagine that this Lardon must have been fed good food on a regular basis.
“Are you sure about that?”
“Yes. Yes, I would love to.”
“In that case, I’ll tell my suppliers to contact you in the near future.”
“Thank you very much.”
I bowed my head deeply.
When the conversation was over, the Countess, with a satisfied expression on her face, approached Lardon.
I approached and reached out to pet him.
Satisfied after flying, the Lardon was stroked meekly.
As I watched, the princess came up to me and spoke in a whisper.
“Master Cyril, why do you ask such a thing to her?”
“If I’m not mistaken, nobles usually feed their cats and dogs quite lavishly. Especially if you’re a cat lover.”
“Yes, it might be…….”
The princess nodded vaguely.
“Once I’m introduced, and if it suits everyone’s palate, I’ll prepare it for everyone in the future. The taste of the food is important.”
“…… Oh, Cyril-sama, is it about your own meal?”
“Yes.”
I nodded.
It’s exactly what princess has noticed.
With the Dragonborn transformation, I need a lot more energy than I used to.
So I had to eat a lot of food, but I’ve been thinking for the past few days that eating a lot of bad food is… unbearable.
Just like me, everyone else must prefer to eat good food.
I don’t have a clue how to solve my problem, but it looks like everyone else’s is going to be easy.
I’m kind of happy about that.
“……”
“Hmm? What’s wrong Ja–Princess, staring at me.”
“You’re a dragon first even at this time, aren’t you? I’m impressed.”
“Is that so? Isn’t that normal?”
I smiled slightly.
I don’t mind being praised by the princess.
But it was such a simple thing.
I’d like to see a world where taking care of your dragon is so common that it can’t be praised. That’s what I thought to myself.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

The next day, the city of Boisroussel, in the government building.
I was summoned and was sitting in the usual parlor, facing Rose.
It was just the two of us, me and Rose.
The princess and her dragons are not with me today.
“I’m sorry to call you here on such short notice.”
“I don’t mind. What’s going on?”
“Nothing serious. Just some small details.”
“Small details?”
“Yeah, Dragon First’s got a client. They asked for you personally.”
“Oh.”
Well, I’m glad to hear it.
The Dragon Knight’s Guild is just like any other business, if the client is satisfied, there will be repeaters, and if word of mouth spreads, requests will come in by name.
It’s the same as being recognized for what you’ve done so far, so I was a little happy to hear Rose’s story.
“I’m grateful.”
“It just happened to be that I became the person to go to for all your job requests, but I started to feel very proud of that.”
“You said it was just small details. Are you saying you’re getting multiple requests?”
“Yeah.”
“Then tell me about it.”
I told Rose that.
After hearing the details of the request, I decided to decide if and how I would take it.
It would be a good idea to complete this request properly and increase the fame and get repeat customers.
That’s what I said.
“Hold on a second. I’ll read you the list.”
“Wait a minute, the list?”
“Yeah.”
“What’s the list for?”
“The list of requests that have come in?”
Rose tilted her head with a question mark on her head.
“A list of requests? …… How many have you got?
“Oh, I can get that out to you in a minute.”
Rose stood up and took a sheet of paper from underneath the table between us.
She looked at the paper and read it.
“Forty-six cases of combat related request, ninety-seven cases of collecting items, and then–“
“Wait a minute. Forty-six? Ninety-seven?”
“Yeah.”
“What’s this all about?”
“What do you mean, you didn’t expect any of this……?”
“What?”
I asked Rose with an expression of confusion.
Rose gave me a slightly dumbfounded look as she insisted.
“You basically stole the deal with the Countess from Lindworm.”
“…… Right.”
“The story is out everywhere now. ‘Is that guild more reliable than Lindworm? Maybe I’ll ask Dragon First to do the job.’ Just like that.”
“…… I see.”
It made a lot of sense when she explained it to me.
In other words, the Countess dragged deals made with Lindworm to my side.
The move that the princess had made had brought about additional effects that far exceeded my imagination.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
