Isn’t Being A Wicked Woman Much Better?

red and folded its eyes thinly like a fox.

“Cookie.
Come here.”

The Blancia Master said in a harsh voice.
But Cookie still stayed by my side, letting out a whimper.

In the original work, it was an animal that created a warlike atmosphere by roaring violently whenever the Master showed signs of discomfort.
As expected, the power of drugs is great.

“Ah, what is wrong with him? For now, please sit down.”

Sighing softly, the Master moved the chair that was far away with magic.

As soon as I sat down, Cookie rolled his golden eyes from side to side, and then sneakily took a seat close to me.
Then it put its head on my lap.

The Master let out a small sigh, as if he had given up.

“Aah.”

At his sigh, Cookie looked between me and the Master alternately, prickling its ears.
It looked fierce, like it was going to bite its owner; but it was cute to see how it cared about its owner’s feelings now.

I also giggled, unconsciously.

“Isn’t Cookie cute?”

I hurriedly fixed my expression and changed the subject.

“Ahem! Well, I heard you finished the magic pouch request.”
“You’re getting straight to the point.
You have no mercy.”

Perhaps because I caused trouble at his shop, his tone of reproval was uncomfortable.

“That’s unexpected, you already knew I’m this kind of person.
If you deal with information, you must have heard the rumors about me.”
“That’s right.
I heard them well…”

He was a little vague, which was unusual of him.
Maybe something was bothering him.

As I looked at his glassy eyes, I felt eerie.

“But are we in some kind of relationship to talk like this?”

When I turned the subject around, the Master shrugged.

“That kind of relationship, we can do it from now on.”
“Why would I?”
“If we are in that kind of relationship, you get something like a discount.”
“You, who is a businessman up to your bones, will give me a discount? That’s empty talk now.”

The Master laughed briefly.

“I didn’t expect you to even have some discernment.
Well, we can improve our relationship as time goes on, so let us get straight to the point.”

He handed me the secret fund pouch I had requested.

At first glance, it looked like a normal pouch; but when I untied the string and opened it, the inside was pitch-dark as if it had been smeared with ink.

I started putting things I had brought inside, to test the functionality of the pouch.

‘It’s really amazing.’

It sucked the objects inside, like a black hole.

I was distracted, looking around the pouch, when the man suddenly reached out his hand to me.

“Princess.”
“What?”
“Give me your hand.”

What is this sudden situation?

“I’m not a puppy, why should I give you my hand? You’re impudent.”
“If the Princess wants to summon objects again in case of loss, you must specify the coordinates on your hand.”
“Ah.”
“You thought I was treating you like a puppy? Technically speaking, the Princess… Is like a cat.”

He took my hand while saying something absurd.
I felt the touch of the cold leather glove on my hand, and right away a pale light flowed from his.

‘His hand is huge.
My ideal type is a man with long fingers that can play the piano well.’

Huh.
But why am I thinking like this?
Honestly, this situation is weird enough to make me feel awkward.
In other people’s eyes, it would look like we are holding hands on a date.

“For how long must we do this? It’s taking quite a while.”

At my question, he immediately removed his hand.

“… It is done.”

The complex patterns on the palm of my hand slowly disappeared, like snow touching the ground.

“If you wish to summon something, you need to recite the spell.”

He wrote the spell and gave it to me.
As soon as I saw the spell written on the note, I vowed never to lose anything.

“When you want to get something out of the pouch, put your hand into it.
You can’t use your eyes to pick things, so it’s easier to put in only gold coins.”
“I see.”

He continued talking about my requests.

“And not taking the pink diamond to the academy was a pretty good decision.”
“Huh…?”
“Perhaps because they were wondering what the jewel looked like that the Princess hid it, it appears to have stimulated the curiosity of the aristocrats.”

I just didn’t want to provoke Philap, but it seems the Master thought that I tried to increase the value of the pink diamond.

“Was that your intention?”
“Hmph! Well, of course.”

He got me, but I managed to keep my expression and pretended it was right.

“If you want to increase the value and reputation of that diamond even more, hide it like you are doing now and bet on it at a decisive moment.”
“When will it be a decisive moment?”
“It will be good next month when the spring festival takes place.
An opportunity to change it into gold coins will happen.”

He flicked his finger with a faint smile.
Soon after, a teapot and two teacups came flying and gently settled on the office table.

“Shall I add sugar?”

The master asked while pouring a smooth scented tea into a teacup.

“Just one.”

He added it to my tea and put three teaspoons of sugar into his teacup.

He seemed to like sweets.
When all the sugar dissolved, he started the conversation while enjoying the steaming tea.

“Then, let’s listen to today’s request.”
“How can you be so sure that I’m going to make a request?”
“If you had no business, you would have gone home right away with the pouch.”

Is it just me or does it look like he’s sulking?

“That’s right.
As you said, I have a request.
There is one more person I would like to know about.”
“Who is it?”
“Isidor Visconti.”
