Chapter 247.1. There’s Always A Scheme Anywhere

Upon reaching the VIP room on the third floor, a notably luxurious room with opulent decor appeared.

Priceless paintings and exquisite furnishings worth billions adorned the space.

Antique chests and the like were arranged, with a soft sofa in the center that seemed to swallow the table whole.

“I adjusted this room myself!”

With a proud grin, I proudly proclaimed to everyone.

I’ve secretly mixed in some paintings by Sora and Mai among the masterpieces, so please give me high marks. It’s probably the most expensive painting in the room.

Probably the most expensive painting in this room, I think.

“Muu… I think I’ll sleep here tonight.”

Descending swiftly from Mii-chan’s back, Sei-chan settled onto the sofa, sinking into its plush cushions.

Half of their body disappeared into the sofa as they began to emit gentle snores.

“This sofa is wonderfully soft and plush. It has great resilience, yet it’s incredibly comfortable. I’ve never seen a sofa like this before.”

“Kon-chan made a nest here~!”

Tapping the sofa playfully, Yamiyo was surprised by the springy sensation, akin to poking a fluffy pudding.

Jumping from Tamamo’s head to the sofa, Kon-chan curled up and contentedly closed their eyes, nesting themselves.

That’s right, indeed. I spared no expense on the furniture.

“It’s the Poyopoyo Sofa IV, a magical sofa that becomes as soft as the person sitting on it deems it to be!”

Furnished by Alchemy IV, it was designed for their private room.

Its seating comfort felt like being on clouds in heaven.

It’s written in the flavor text, so there’s no doubt about it.

A magical sofa whose firmness changes depending on the person sitting. While Sei-chan sank into the sofa, others only sunk slightly deeper.

Each one had a relaxed expression, proving the effort put into making it was worthwhile.

“Does Takano County plan to venture into furniture as well?”

With a slightly scrutinizing gaze, Elizabeth inquired.

“I heard from papa that since corporate taxes became free this year, I’m planning to start a new company.”

I don’t quite understand the connection between making a new company and free corporate taxes, but since it’s papa’s decision, it’s probably fine.

“I see… So you’ve found another goose that lays golden eggs.”

Elizabeth let out a smile tinged with implications.

I see. You’re planning to tackle that direction, huh? I already guessed that before hearing the whole story.

So, I nonchalantly cross my legs and give a smug smile. After all, I’m Takano Miu the successful girl.

From an outsider’s perspective, given my small stature, it might just look like a cute girl enjoying playing the mastermind’s role.

It might look like a mastermind game, but the prediction is accurate, and just as I thought, Elizabeth starts to speak the lines I expected.

“Well, let’s see… I…”

“Oh, wait. Let’s order first.”

Taking the menu from the server, I quickly scan it before placing an order. The menu only has dish names written on it, with no prices listed.

“There are no prices written!”

Hoku-chan raises a cry of despair while I flash a mischievous smile.

“It’s so Seven Bridge-like!”

“It’s ‘celeb,’ not ‘Seven Bridge’, Mii-sama.”

“If you beat me, it’ll be free!”

After finishing the routine with Yamiyo, we all look at the menu together.

“By the way, we’ll be using Mii-chan Card, so everything here will be priced at 100 yen each.”

Pulling out a platinum card adorned with a chick from my pocket, I showed it to everyone.

Mii-chan Card is a card that lowers the prices at Takano County’s shops to 100 yen for everything. Only my family members have it.

Now then, what should I order…

A course meal wouldn’t be suitable for lunch. I don’t feel like having steak, so maybe I’ll go for fish.

“I’ll have the horse mackerel namero set.”

Mii-chan chose a sophisticated dish. There’s a possibility that the influence of her previous life’s evil spirit is affecting her choices.

“I’ll have the same as Mii-sama.”

“Please give Kon-chan inari sushi. And Tamamo will have fox soba.”

“Zero Gravity Hamburger Steak~”

“…Rice ball set.”

“I’ll have the Hornbear Cow steak set.”

“I’ll have the same as everyone else. Bring it all together~.”

Yamiyo and the others each placed their orders. The waiter bowed and left, returning shortly with the dishes.

Due to a rather innovative order from one person, we moved to a different table.

But we couldn’t do anything since the dishes wouldn’t fit.

After the waiter had left, as Elizabeth began to cut her Hornbear Cow steak, she started speaking in a composed manner.

“Takano Miu. I’ll be straightforward. Withdraw from the Emperor faction.”

“Quite direct, aren’t you?”

I was surprised because I expected her to use more indirect noble-like phrasing.

The horse mackerel namero slipped off her chopsticks, and it was a bit hard to catch. Maybe it’s not just because Mii-chan is clumsy.

“Are you telling me to switch to Kanna Dukedom’s faction? I think it’s difficult to do that, though.”

As I anticipated, another piece of namero slipped off, causing me to feel a bit down. Namero is tricky to eat.

“That’s not it. I don’t expect you to switch to Kanna Dukedom’s faction, an enemy faction. No, I don’t expect you to abandon the faction you’ve already established.”

As she pierced her fork into the steak and took a hearty bite, the enthusiastic girl continued to chew.

Oh, unexpected response.

“Hm? Not that?”

“No. The rumors are already circulating. You’re going to be bestowed the title of Marchioness, aren’t you?”
