I had eyes on the head of the Samethyllene society and his assassin in custody.
　Neither of them would talk, or even look me in the eye.

　A few moments later, Alice came back with Clint.

"Well, well, well, ......

　Clint arrived, his eyes glittered when he saw the two men being held captive.
　I got a bit of a chill, because they were the eyes of a predator that had found its prey.
　It's a sharp eye that makes me tingle even though it's not prey.
　And yet he's smiling, and he's smiling like crazy.

"Don't get me wrong, this is--
Of course I won't be mistaken. There's no one here, and there's no way they could be mistaken.

　It's kind of a white clint.
　His eyes are looking straight at the other guy, but he's babbling, "There's no one here.

'There's no one here, and nothing is happening. Right, Mr. Sato?
Yeah?　Oh, ...... yeah.

　I wasn't sure what Clint wanted to do, but my instincts told me it was better to match up.

So I guess I'm going to have to talk to myself now.

　'I'm going to offer you,' said Clint, speaking with straight, non-smiling eyes, after a preamble.

"Indor, I'm going to offer you a billion dollars," he said, "and I'm going to offer you a deal. It's a difficult negotiation, but what, I'm sure it will happen (、、、、、).

　Wow. Awesome.
　Blackmail, I've never witnessed blackmail before.

　Sametylene thrust 10 billion piro for the release of Indor, and Clint threatened - and negotiated - 1 billion piro.

　Ten billion to a billion, a tenth of a billion, or ten times their original offer, well, that's reasonable.
　And my accidental work is worth 9 billion piro.
　It's kind of amazing, isn't it?

　Clint, whose eyes weren't smiling, and the head of the Same-Tierne Association, who was biting down on a bitter bug.
　The two men stared at each other for a while, and then the other side broke off.

I'll make you a billion. You can pay me whenever you want.
Mmm, I just felt like talking to myself again. I don't know if I'm getting enough sugar.

　With a theatrical gesture, Clint pulled out a large quantity of sugar cubes, threw a mouthful into his mouth, and crunched them up.
　I and the others were taken aback by this act, and Clint completely dominated the atmosphere.
　And then the sugar cube was completely consumed.

"If you don't give me a billion pounds of pillows, I'll never forget something." (、、、、)
Nah...

　Wow.
　Wow, I mean, it's not just great, it's egregious, Clint.
　I thought the 1 billion was a bargaining chip!　You'd rather have them pay me off in hush money!
　Demons!　You're an animal!
　And this guy.

I can't afford it!
I think I heard something, but I guess I'm just hearing things. Yes, I'll have to ask the Samethyllene Society and the adventurers what they think of what they just heard.
No, don't do that.
......

　Clint didn't say anything, he just stared at the other guy with eyes that weren't smiling.
　The fact that he was smiling so hard on his face was unbalanced and rather frightening.
　Seeing that, I seriously thought, "Let's not make him angry," I thought.

　　　　　☆

　After the other side was gone, Clint pocketed the reminder with a satisfied look on his face.
　He had the other side write it, a contract that said both the renunciation of Indor and the payment of a billion piro, both of which were written.
　As soon as the other side wrote it, a magic circle spread across the paper, so it's a contract with a magical power - maybe a coercive one - added to it.

　I became more and more afraid of Clint, who had even prepared such a thing in this moment when Alice went to call him.

''I suppose that pretty much settles the Indor matter.
Is that so?
''Same-Tyrene has abandoned this place, and a billion piro is enough for the time being to build the infrastructure to welcome adventurers. Beyond that, it depends on the tax revenue from the dungeon.
Okay.

　I was a bit surprised, the way Clint talked, he said he'd spend the entire billion piro on Indor.

This Indor, and Aurum, is the dungeon we're going to earn our money from now on, so we've got to make the most of that billion piro.
Auldurm?
It's a dungeon name.
So you've decided.
What?

　Clint is puzzled. Did I hear something funny?

Are you under the misconception that people decide what to name their dungeons?
You're not?
'Each dungeon has a name from birth, the humans just magically confirm it.
Yeah.

　That was surprising.

'There is a theory that the god of the earth is following the law of some kind, but I honestly don't know what it is.

　I know something about the law of not being able to understand Clint.

　Tellurium, Arsenic, Silicon, Nihonium, Selenium, and Aurum.
　It's a law that will probably lead to helium and uranium.

　　　　　☆

　He was recognized as Clint and returned to the village.
　As soon as I entered the village, I was found and the villagers came rushing in.

'Thank you, Satou-sama!

　The village chief, who was leading the villagers, suddenly thanked me.
　I have no idea what I'm talking about, and I'm a bit puzzled.

Oh, what do you mean by thank you?
Alice tells me that you not only freed Indor from Samethyllene, but that you have taken billions of dollars for the development of the village.
'What?　How do you know that already?　I just found out with Clint.
Thank you, Mr. Sato.
Thank you!
Thank you, benefactor!
You are the savior of this village!

　The villagers have thanked me for my mouthful.
　From benefactor to further savior, it's getting more and more over the top.

'We must repay our benefactor's kindness.
'Oh yes!　There's money, and there's dungeons!　Let's make this village bigger by ourselves!
I can't face him if he doesn't take you this far!

　They're all very enthusiastic, and then I remember what Clint said.

--"A billion piro, we have to make the most of it.

　That's what Clint said.
　The billion-dollar story has been partly perverted, but the villagers say it's to my credit.
　And they were motivated, and their spirits were lifted tremendously.

　I'm sure it's all part of what Clint calls "making the most of it.
　That's good, no, it's better to do it with this much enthusiasm than to do it.

　It's a good .......

'We've got to gun the monster down!
I'm not afraid of that little devil.

　I can't help but feel uneasy about some of the young man's lines. That would make me think I'm going to have another accident.
　...... There's no way around it.

Give me a minute.
Where are you going, Master Sato?
I'll be right back.

　Then I made the villagers wait and headed back the way I'd come.
　When we got back to the deserted forest, I dropped a piece of gold from my porch onto the ground.

　I put the glittering gold down, kept my distance, and waited for a while.
　The gold turned out to be a haggler.

　I fired a straitjacket with the gun I had already stunned, and restrained the five little demons - Hagremono.
　Then, he took them and returned to the villagers.

''Say, Satou-sama?　What kind of ...... is this?
Let's train now, everyone spread out in a circle.

　When he saw that the villagers had distanced themselves from him as he had told them, he spoke to one of them.

"You there, you said it was going to be a piece of cake.
Uh-huh.
Okay, then you should try fighting this guy.

　He tore off the rope of light and sent one of the little devils out (I could easily untie it as I shot him).
　The young man with the big mouth was easily killed.
　I rescued him from the little demon that almost killed him with a restraining round and healed him with a recovery round.

''That was too hasty. I told you before, these guys are pretty mean, and they'll come and pretend to be dead or something.''
'Yes, yes ......, sorry.'
Are you still up for it?　Then it's the second round.

　I trained the villagers.
　More and more villagers were rushing into the woods because of Clint, so I figured I should at least train them so they wouldn't die in vain.

　　　　　☆

　Alice and Eve watched Ryota and the villagers' training from a distance.

'Low level, good-natured.'
That's Lyota.
No stone left unturned.
Because of that, people look up to Ryota more and more. They treat him like a god.
The female there and there, her eyes are in heat.
Really, it's Eve's eyes when she looks at the carrots.

　Eve wordlessly slapped Alice with a fast (,) chop.
　As they watched, Ryota subconsciously grew more and more trustworthy and likable to the villagers.
