Chapter 55: Tiger Tea Party

ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 BY GUTEZAGUTEREZ0980

Back at Hungry Bear, I use the well in the garden to cleanse myself for the evening tea party.

“Ginjiro-san, the hamburgers today were amazing. Everyone in the dinning hall was ordering hamburgers because of the smell of the sauce.”

Lutz, the innkeeper’s son and the eldest son, spoke to me while drying the laundry in the garden.

Personally, I like hamburger steak with stewed tomatoes sauce and cheese, but it was the royal hamburger steak that was selling well at the coffee shop.

“Lutz, would you like to cook a meal with me next time?”

Ginjiro knows that he is doing his best to succeed Hungry Bear in the future.

I wanted to support Lutz, so I called out to him, then with serious eyes he said please do.

Well, first, I should buy a can of cat food for Ao.

When I returned to my room, I bought the usual cat food cans at Net Shop.

I opened the lid and put it in the item box, and soon one was gone.

Will Ao know when there are more cat food cans?

With this question in mind, I thank Ao for helping me and buy other items.

Even when I was in Japan, I used online stores, but I never made impulse purchases based on the display of products recommended for you.

However, since coming to another world, I have more money to spend and I often buy recommended products.

When you buy a roll cake tower, you will be introduced to a limited-time peach roll cake tower.

I also bought the peach roll cake tower that was introduced.

aside from that. I also bought accessories that I might use at the dress exhibition tomorrow.

As I continued to purchase zirconia necklaces, I found a pearl necklace, so I clicked that as well.

Then, all of a sudden, there were only menus that could be purchased with copper coins that had been purchased in the past, such as candy and rice balls.

When I checked why this happened, I found that there were only 6 copper coins remaining.

Ginjiro’s mind goes blank.

It seems that the reason why the money disappeared was because he used all his assets to buy a first-class brand pearl necklace that everyone knew about.

He checked for a return button, but there was no such sign anywhere.

“Ginjiro-sama, is everything alright?”

Sebastian came to pick me up in the evening, but I was depressed because of the mistake I had made earlier.

“I bought a wrong product ……”

Sebastian tells me if there is anything he can do to help, but it was Ginjiro who made the mistake.

Since the tea party is about to start, I tell him that it’s fine.

As it is, we arrive at the Mainz house in a carriage, but it is more heavily guarded than usual.

“Things are kind of tense today.”

Sebastian said yes, and then fell silent.

It’s bothering me, but I decided not to think too much about it.

“Ginjiro-sama, we have been waiting for you. Let me show you around.”

The first person to appear was Cohen-san, the head maid.

She was beautiful when I first met her, but since she learned how to use cosmetics, she has become more polished.

She is a legitimately beautiful woman, so much so that her maid uniform looks like a costume.

When I was taken in front of the room where the tiger was, the door was opened at once.

“Thank you for inviting me here today.”

Ginjiro bows deeply to the tiger in front of him.

“Ginjiro-san, thank you for coming. I heard you were having fun at the summer festival yesterday.”

Cold sweat runs down my back.

I just sold some gorgeous shaved ice and served a little booze and food.

“Also congratulations on the launch of your Company. I hear it’s bronze rank, but shall I complain to the Commercial Guild?”

Her eyes are not smiling.

I tell her that bronze rank is enough for me.

Despite the fact that I have only greeted her, today’s tiger is even sharper than usual.

“Hey, Elsa, can you introduce me soon?  You called me and said you wanted to introduce me to someone.”

“Elsa, me too. It’s so unusual for you to ask me for something so it’s gotta be something important, right?”

The three of them seemed to get along well with each other since they were invited to the tiger’s tea party.

“Right. Sebas, serve the tea.”

As they sit down, they are served already heated teacups and a tea set.

The ladies enjoy the aroma of the tea as Sebastian brews it.

“This tea called Darjeeling, which was given to me by Ginjiro-san, is good for beauty as it removes blemishes, swelling, and other bad things in the body.”

Sweat was running down my back again.

I had been trying to make a good sales pitch, but it was awkward to be clipped from my speech.

“Even Francesca has never had tea like this, which has a wonderful aroma and taste, and is good for beauty, right?”

Francesca was the name of a very pretty lady who said she had been summoned by a tiger.

“Yes, it is. I’ve been ordering from abroad recently, but nothing can compare to this tea. And the cups are lovely.”

Francesca was full of praise.

“As I said before, Elsa has suddenly become so beautiful. Can she change so much just by drinking tea?”

Said another friend, Adelheid.

“Ginjiro-san, I’m in trouble.”

I’m already in trouble from the moment you put me in this room,  I have no idea what to do.

“I’m going to tell you two a secret. Cohen, get the cosmetics ready for both of them.”

Speaking of which, Elsa-sama’s tea party ‘?’ has begun.

TLN: Who are those lady???

BTW In Butler Stuart Quiet story the Duke’s eldest daughter who harassing Sophia also named Adelheid. At first Stuart call her Aida Ojousama but next paragraph he use Adelheid  ( アデルハイト ). She is Sophia classmate so she is different person from Adelheid in this chapter. I don’t it’s typo or my misstranslation but until now her name is still same… well for confirmation let’s wait Royal capital arc.
