The Child Chair Gets Renamed, It’s Now the Kai Chair
“My, this chair is wonderful.”
“It truly is lovely.”
“I’d like one for my house as well.”
“Hey, this chair’s nice. Can I eat with the grown-ups if I use this?”
“Yeah, maybe I won’t fall off the chair with this one. It’s not scary.”
Looks like everyone liked it.
“The Marsh family always has such wonderful things. I’m so envious.”
“““““Truly~”””””
Alright, Mama. Now’s the time to say it.
Go!
“Well, actually… the Kai Chairs your children are sitting in right now, we will be giving them to all of you.”
Hey, wait! Mama, so it’s officially called the Kai Chair now?!
“““““Waaah~♡♡”””””
“Are you sure that’s alright?”
Don’t doubt it!
Yes~ these are gifts.
“It’s perfectly alright.”
Mama’s eyes were sparkling a little too much, though.
“We’re so happy. Thank you very much.”
“Oh, it’s quite alright… however!”
Right. They’re not completely free.
““““However?””””
“We would simply appreciate it if you could mention the excellence of this Kai Chair to people around you. Just a word or two of recommendation.”
“And that’s all? We don’t have to pay for it, we can receive it for free?”
Yes, yes, it’s free.
But seriously… why does she keep saying things like “Are you sure that’s alright?” or “We can receive it for free?”
Mama and I aren’t stingy, you know. Can’t you just say thank you normally, Lady Iida? If you keep pushing it, I’m going to get annoyed. Iida! Just like the name… ow!
… Okay, that pun’s actually kind of funny.
I swallowed my irritation toward Lady Iida like that inside my head.
Hey, Appraisal Eye, why are you activating now?
What, because Lady Iida’s husband might be called “Iida-nna-sama” or something? What is that? You just wanted to make a pun too?
I only met Lady Iida for the first time today, and I’ve never even met Viscount Iida.
Meanwhile, Appraisal Eye had already started analyzing the slightly suspicious-looking Lady Iida.
Lady Iida… are you perhaps thinking something bad involving the Kai Chair?
What the heck is that?!
Why is it phrased like a question, “perhaps”? Is it bad or not?! Which is it?!
Hey, Appraisal Eye~ give me more information. Come on, tell me more! Answer me!
“We are giving them to you. Please don’t hesitate. In fact, arrangements have already been made to deliver them to all of your estates today. I do hope you’ll like them.”
Ahh… I’m tired.
Tea parties are exhausting.
Nobles are such a pain.
“Young Master Kaito, are you tired?”
“Yeah… a little tired.”
“It’s already time for bed. Now then, please rest.”
“Marle, good night.”
Some time later, I was summoned to Papa’s room.
“Whaaaat~? You’re saying orders for the Kai Chair are flooding in? Really?”
I wish they’d stop using that embarrassing name, Kai Chair.
“Ahh, Kaito, it’s thanks to you. I thought it might sell, so we made a thousand at first, but they sold out in no time. And apparently the reservations are already filled two years ahead. That’s your achievement.”
Hehe.
Papa praised me and patted my head. That made me happy.
So… it really settled on Kai Chair, huh?
Hey~ why is nobody objecting to that name?
By the way, you’re wondering how much they sold for?
Ten gold coins each.
But since I didn’t know the value of money or the common sense of this world yet, I had no way of knowing just how much profit that actually meant.
