Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement

Chapter 217



217 . Transport Corps 3

What a blunder!

Come to think of it, I taught Sabine-chan and the King about the radio, but Ive never taught it to anyone related to Count Bozes .

I taught some people during the treaty negotiation journey, but that was a confidential matter, atop-secret, so it cannot be revealed .

Obviously . How ridiculous it is to be able to interact with someone several hundred kilometers away in an instant, from the military, commercial, and various other perspectives

Well, the impact might be small for those who know my [transfer], though .

So thats why, it seems that I was not conveyed to Count Bozes, the matter about the radio I mean

It wont be a problem if he knows about it . Besides, I contacted the King in the royal capital with radio during the invasion fleet attack, so I thought Count Bozes had already known about the radio .

Ah, no, maybe Count-sama knew, but he just didnt tell his family about it . Because he cant just leak the confidential information of the country, even to his wife and children

And, for Beatrice-chan, Colette-chan is just a commoner . Well, no matter how much I say that [shes a vassal candidate], she wont believe it so easily . After all, Colette-chan was just a village girl in the county of Bozes .

And Beatrice-chan seems to think that Im just taking her to give her a proper education in order to return the favor from saving my life And that I said [Its an education to become a vassal], just so that Colette-chan wont feel reserved

AndthatColette-chan, who is just a commoner, is freely using the secret tool that allows to [talk to me anytime, even if Im far away] . While on the other hand, she, who believes that she is my best friend more than Colette-chan or Sabine-chan, hasnt been taught about it at all .

its bad .

Its pretty bad

And if she knows that Sabine-chan has her own radio on top of knowing about it, itd be far frombad!

itd be dangerous . Pretty dangerous

What should I do

And as expected, I cant possibly install a radio set in Bozes house .

If I do that, the radio, which is an Over-Technologyfor this world, will allow Count Bozes and the King to do unthinkable things such as instantly transmits information and many other things

And various things would be planned on the premise of its existence If I were gone, all of them would immediately collapse . Starting from a slight malfunction, deterioration of the battery or the solar panel, and so on

Right, it means that Ill be racked with anxiety if they were to make a defense plan on the assumption that real-time information can be exchanged between the royal capital and the county of Bozes .

I brought the radio to this world so that I can communicate with someone far away . I dont intend to let anyone other than me use it for their own convenience . If Im the only one they can communicate with using the radio, no one will be troubled even if Im gone, and the radio doesnt work anymore .

During the treaty negotiation journey is an exception . At that time, the safety of the delegates was the top priority . the matter about Princess Remia, too, I suppose .

She only uses it for playing and talking with Sabine-chan or to request for emergency rescue, so it doesnt matter if it suddenly stopped working one day . Because the meaning of its existence would be lost for good, If I, the one who should go for her rescue, am gone .

If its only used for a single purpose and would be rendered useless with my disappearance, then theres no problem . Theres no way they could reproduce it within a few hundred years, and it will decay and disappear in the meantime anyway .

Besides, if I were to disappear by my own will, I will recover all radios and solar power generation systems before that, along with everything of modern technologies in the [general store Mitsuha] and my territory residence .

Ah, I collected the radio that was installed inside the carriage that was used during the treaty negotiations trip and the solar panels on its roof after the team returned to the royal capital . or rather, theyre now installed on this carriage .

[tsuha! Mitsuha!!] (Colette-chan)

Ah . I was in the middle of a conversation with Colette-chan

I Ive got a little urgent matter all of sudden . I will call you later! (Mitsuha)

[Eh? ah, un 10-4!] (Colette-chan)

Yakuman! (Mitsuha) (Note:Mahjongstuff, basically highest score)

[Eh?] (Colette-chan)

No, nothing 10-10! (Mitsuha)

Its notTenhou, and its not an emergency order either . (Note: Again, Mahjong stuff)

Besides, Im not even using CB radio, just amateur radio equipment .

well, I was just half-joking and teach Colette-chan theTen-code .

And Colette-chan, who correctly guessed that theres [something happened], immediately withdrew .

Now the problem is

That was Colette, right? (Beatrice-chan)

Beatrice-chan probably had never met Colette-chan until she came to the territory residence .

Well, obviously . Theres no way the lords daughter could be acquainted with a villagers daughter . Unlike the viscounty, which has a population of fewer than 700 people, the county of Bozes has a much larger population, and theres no way the daughter of a count could blithely roam the territory .

But, since Beatrice-chan visits the territory residence on a regular basis, of course, she had many opportunities to talk to Colette-chan . So, even though the voice that came out from the speaker of the radio was slightly distorter, she still recognized whose voice it was

what isthat? (Beatrice-chan)

With [the light in her eyes disappeared] that often called the [void expression] on her face, Beatrice-chan repeated the same words as before .

Aaaaaahh, it seems I cant escape from this one!!

I see . Not only Colette but Princess Sabine too (Beatrice-shan)

So Beatrice-chan murmured, still with the void expression on her face .

scary!!

Well, even if try to fool her now, Im sure she will ask Colette-chan later .

And Colette-chan might not be able to endure Beatrice-chans interrogations .

If she were to find out that Ive fooled her after she asked Colette-chan it would be a catastrophe .

And after that, if the hand of investigation reached Sabine-chan too

Buruburuburuburuburu! (SFX)

With that in mind, its definitely better to honestly tell her about Sabine-chan too and finish it all at once .

So I told her everything .

Besides, Sabine-chan is of a far higher class than Beatrice-chan, so theres a faint hope that it might help to ease her anger if she knows that, not only Colette-chan but Sabine-chan also knows about it .

of course, in terms of my friends, including Colette-chan, there is no concept of hierarchy!! Everyone is equal except during formal occasions .

well, as expected it would be really bad if she finds out about the Earth or the new continent, but I guess theres no problem if its just about the radio . It is already known to many people anyway, even the court ladies and the maids at the royal palace knew about it

Ah, of course, the court ladies and the maids have trustworthy backgrounds . Most of them are the daughters of lower-class nobles, high-ranking bureaucrats, and the likes, so they will never reveal the secret even as a mistake .

Because if they were to betray the royal family, it would not end with just themselves . They would rather sacrifice themselves than putting their house and whole clan at risk . Every noblemen and merchant in this world have that kind of mentality

So even if they were threatened or caught and tortured, most of them would rather report it to the officials or bite their own tongue .

its not like it could be imitated just because someone knew about its existence, so I have no problem even if they talked about it . Thats why I want them to prioritize their lives over that in such cases . Otherwise, they would be executed even if they were released, because they concealed the super confidential secret of the country

So, its better to keep the existence of the radio unknown .

And

I request that magic tool! If I have that, I can freely talk to Mitsuha even when Im at Bozes mansion! (Beatrice-chan)

I saw that coming!
