The Villainess Enjoys Her Seventh Life as a Free-Spirited Bride (hostage) in a Former Enemy Country
Chapter 71.1At the time of the appointment with Arnold, the room prepared for Kyle was a room usually used for meetings.
Since the royal family used the room, the furnishings were all first class. The round table set in the center of the room was something you couldn’t find in a guest room.
A knock eventually sounded, and Squire Oliver opened the door.
As he stood next to the door, Arnold appeared from behind.
Kyle, who was already at the table, stood up there and bowed.
“Arnold-dono, thank you for your time today.”
“–Let me warn you beforehand…”
Arnold looked down calmly at Kyle across the round table.
“I don’t want to repeat what we talked about the other day. I still don’t see the value in an alliance with the Koyor Kingdom.”
“…I’m totally aware of that.”
“But…”
His gaze turned to the corner of the room.
“I suppose we’ll hear something a little more sane, eh? Rishe?”
“Of course, Your Highness Arnold.”
Standing at a distance from the round table, Rishe, who had been quiet as if she were a maidservant, smiled as she met Arnold’s gaze.
Don’t be pressured. This is a business negotiation; it’s a battle.
Arnold’s eyes were belligerent. I’m sure you’ll be able to find out more about it, and the provocative glitter in his eyes made the air in the room tense.
Kyle must have felt it too. Arnolt huffed, took his gaze off Rishe, and sat down.
“Take your seats too. Let’s get on with it.”
“Before that, Your Highness Arnold…”
Rishe walked over to the side of the round table and stood in the middle of Kyle and Arnold.
Then smiled with open arms while looking towards Arnold.
“Do you know what makes me different today?”
“…”
Arnold raised a quizzical brow at Rishe’s question.
This response was totally expected. But when Arnold examined Rishe, he replied with his cheek propped on the armrest, “Necklace, bracelet, earrings…None of them are familiar. I don’t think you’ve ever worn them in front of me.”
“!”
She didn’t expect him to see it at a glance.
His Royal Highness Arnold has good eyesight. It’s not just simple eyesight, but insight, kinetic vision, and his ability to recognize a variety of things is very strong…
Rishe nodded and sat down and continued to explain to Arnold.
“As you mentioned, I bought all of these jewelry from Aria Trading Company yesterday. It’s a collection of jewelry from Koyor.”
Kyle spoke to support Rishe’s statement.
“Let me expound Koyor’s industry to you. Our country produces gems and is snowbound for more than half the year. The combination of these conditions means that we have a large number of excellent artisans who make jewelry.”
Koyor had countless innovations on how to spend the long winter.
The custom of men complimenting women was another tradition to keep households running smoothly. In the same way, jewelry crafts, which could be done indoors, have been valued since ancient times until now.
“Koyor’s craftsmen can produce decorations that would take longer to complete in other countries, but they can do it quickly and elaborately. It’s Koyor’s treasure that we can be proud to show the world.”
Again, Kyle’s claim was a fact.
Arnold was supposed to present Rishe a ring from the recent incident. And they told her that the ring would normally take a month to complete.
However, according to a letter she received from the old woman who owned the store, that period was reduced to just one week.
The reason for this was that a Koyor craftsman was on board the ship on which Kyle had traveled to Garkhain.
