Pushover Extra Trains the Villainesses

Foolishness often exerted more power than one might have imagined. 

The regret of something that had not been achieved sometimes moved a person’s heart more than the greater something that had been achieved. 

In an unexpected and intense way.

***

Rhome’s shopping district bustled with diverse crowds—residents buying daily necessities, tourists searching for souvenirs, and merchants busy trading. 

Though not as favored as Milan in the north, due to its southern bias, Rhome’s symbolic significance and solid infrastructure attracted many merchants.

Among the countless people conducting transactions for various purposes were members of the Predator, Mergon and Nemea, in the middle of purchasing items needed for their journey.

“The food will be dry bread and fruit as always, right?” Mergon asked.

“Sometimes I want to eat a little bit of meat… but it can’t be helped. Until this job is over, we have to tighten my belt as much as possible.”

Mergon slowly took out a small pouch from his bosom, and Nemea looked at it with familiar eyes. “Are you going to do it again? After a while, we might be able to make a good profit from such a penny.”

“That’s that, and this is this; it’s more of a hobby now,” Mergon said as she left the area selling daily necessities and headed somewhere else. 

Nemea smiled lightly at the corner of her mouth toward Mergon. 

‘Even in situations like this, you’re always the same… That’s definitely just like you.’

“Umm… As expected, the price of holy water goes up day by day. It would have been really nice if the storage was excellent,” Yuria mused as she wandered around the shopping district, checking prices. Behind her, as always, was Robert.

“I thought you came here simply to buy souvenirs… but even under these circumstances, you are running your own business,” Robert remarked.

“Of course, for merchants, moving is a matter directly related to profit, right? Whether it’s a trip or something else, once you arrive in another area, it’s basic to buy cheap things that can only be found there and sell them expensively elsewhere to make a profit,” Yuria explained, still checking the prices of the items piled up in front of her.

“The price of holy water is too high, so the margins are not good. Sculptures are a bit tricky because there are too many likes and dislikes. Considering storage, would you like something like olives or a consecrated new ticket?”

Yuria was struggling with what to buy as a trade item. For some reason, Robert couldn’t take his eyes off her as she struggled with a serious face. Objectively speaking, Robert had seen many women who were incomparably more beautiful than Yuria. Among them were noblewomen and princesses from other countries, all impeccable in terms of status and dignity.

However, Yuria had something that he didn’t feel in those people. Even Robert wasn’t quite sure what it was, but he could vaguely perceive that it kept him interested in her.

‘I don’t know what it is, but at least it’s clear that it’s not a bad thing… Or would my father know? My late mother was from a commoner like Yuria, so maybe he knows something.’

While thinking about that, Robert still had some doubts about why he couldn’t take his eyes off Yuria. It was when the boy was watching with excitement as the young girl looked at the trade goods so diligently.

“Tch… I never thought the price of holy water would rise like this… If this happens, do I have to buy something else on the way to Benessa?”

“It must be because the atmosphere these days is gloomy. If you have nothing to buy, let’s go. In a little while, I think the others will also leave for Benessa.”

Yuria turned her gaze to the voice coming from the side. 

Robert also turned his head and looked at the people next to him who were expressing concern. 

Standing there were two women with slightly unusual appearances: one with green hair and brown skin, and the other with orange hair and white skin.

Looking at the two of them, Yuria cautiously spoke.

“Hey… are you guys going to trade with Benessa too?”

“Yes? It’s like that… but what happened all of a sudden?” the green-haired woman asked with a slightly annoyed expression.

Yuria gave her a friendly smile and said, “No, actually I came here to trade there. The price of holy water just went up, so I’m looking for other items.”

“Ah… I see,” the woman’s face softened at Yuria’s words, showing a convincing expression. Seeing a little girl in almost the same situation as herself, she let her guard down and began to show some friendliness.

“You are already trading at such a young age. Do you think the little girl is also a merchant?”

“Yes, I originally live in the Schwyz area, but now I came down here because of trade,” Yuria replied.

“Hoh… in Schwyz, right? How great are you at such a young age? Did you come alone? Or with the caravan?”

“I came with the caravan, and because of that, I have to leave here in a little while.”

“I see…”

Showing interest in Yuria’s words, the woman began to smile slightly. Somehow, the fact that such a girl came to trade with the Beden Merchant Company to such a distant place seemed difficult, yet on the other hand, it seemed cute.

“So, did you choose what to buy? I think it will be difficult for you and me to have fun with holy water.”

“Yes, I thought something like this would happen, so I checked the market price of other items in advance. I think olives are good if there are no problems with transportation, and if that is a little difficult, a new ticket will be fine even if the margin is a little less.”

“Ohhh… is that so? I can’t believe I’ve been researching even those spare parts. You are more amazing than I thought.”

Looking at Yuria, who prepared more meticulously than expected, the woman was slightly impressed. Seeing her like that, Yuria lightly smiled.

“Hehe, no matter how you look at it, I’ve already worked in this field for over 5 years. It is always essential to make plenty of escape holes.”

“Haa… You’re right… I’m honestly a little embarrassed about that, right? No matter how close it is to a half-hobby life, it means that you care less about information than a child.”

The fact that she had received help unintentionally made the woman smile a bit embarrassed. Then, placing a hand on her shoulder, the orange-haired woman spoke in a bright voice.

“Certainly, there is a difference between an expert and an aspirant. Isn’t that right, Mergon?”

“Um… I’ll admit it. As expected, there are limits as a side job.”

“Yes? So… are you saying you two aren’t merchants?” Yuria asked with a slightly surprised expression, and the orange-haired woman continued to speak in a bright voice.

“That’s right. I have nothing to do with the Beden Merchant Company in the first place, and this friend used to be a merchant, but she quit after going bankrupt once. She still can’t throw away her lingering attachments and pretends to be a merchant.”

“Nemea, if you’re going to talk like that, throw up everything you’ve eaten so far. How many times have I bought you food with the profit of the transaction?”

“Ah… hahaha… sorry. Cancel that.”

The two talked lightly about not-so-pleasant stories. After thinking about this for a while, Yuria carefully asked Mergon.

“Then… do you have any thoughts of becoming a merchant again? If given the chance.”

Mergon couldn’t answer for a while at the words that were a little more weighty than she thought. However, she soon opened her mouth with a slightly lonely smile on her lips.

“Well… I’d be lying if I said no. Still, I don’t think it’s an easy choice. Even if it looks like this, I have younger siblings I need to take care of right now.”

“Okay…”

Yuria showed a slightly regretful reaction to Mergon’s words. In response, Mergon spoke to her in a slightly lighter tone.

“But… I might try again once the job I’m doing goes well. At least not as a hobby like now, but as a real merchant.”

At her words, Yuria’s face started to glow again. 

Although it wasn’t long since they met, hearing that a person who had given up on the path of a merchant would try again was something she wanted to cheer for as someone working in the industry.

“I wish you all the best. I will cheer you on,” Yuria said.

“Whoops. Thanks. See you again when things go well and you’re back on this road. In terms of industry experience, since you are a senior, I want to hear your advice.”

“Yes! Of course. I will do that.”

***

After having a heartwarming conversation, Mergon, who had purchased trade goods, left the shopping district with Nemea.

“Still, thanks to you, I can earn the money I put in.”

“Good. As a bonus, it’s been a while since I’ve talked to people in the same industry.”

Nemea spoke in a slightly teasing tone, but Mergon only replied with a light smile. Unlike usual, her dissatisfaction seemed to have been resolved a little. 

Seeing this, Nemea asked her friend in a cautious tone, “By the way… is that true? If this job goes well, you will become a merchant again.”

“Shall I be honest with you?”

Instead of answering, Mergon spoke in a serious voice. 

Upon hearing this, Nemea let out a small sigh as she understood the meaning behind the words.

“Yes… I’m saying it now, but I expected you to be like that someday.”

“At least… after we twins and the leader settle down. And… you too.”

“Me? Heh, what am I saying? If that happens, I’ll work as an escort for some Merchant Company. I don’t think I’ll throw you out because of your loyalty.”

“Are you serious?”

“Have you ever seen me lie?”

“No.”

“Whoops…”

“Hahaha…”

While laughing lightly, the two envisioned a future different from the past. At that moment, shortly after they arrived in a deserted place, their relaxed expressions suddenly sharpened.

“Huh? Hey, is that the girl? The one with the greatsword…”

“That’s good. Now we won’t have many eyes on us.”

With those words, the warm atmosphere from just before was wiped away, and the two immediately drew their weapons.

And…
