What would be famous if one were reincarnated?
These days, even in isekai stories, villainess stories are trending. And these young ladies always start some kind of business.
It's normal for an ordinary person not to know the ingredients or manufacturing methods of a product, but with medieval experts and a little research, things just pop out. Among them, they easily make guns or cosmetics, chocolate manufacturing methods, etc...
They show expertise that an ordinary person wouldn't normally have, you know?
That got me thinking. Since I don't have such special, cheat-like abilities, what should I do? Naturally, call Servants who do have such abilities.
A business in Chaldea? I don't particularly have that thought... but there's the Da Vinci Shop. Of course, it's not like selling in the game, but it's a system of receiving small requests, making things, and getting paid.
Rather than business targeting Chaldea, yes. Business targeting Servants in Singularities. Why?
Actually, I just want to do something. And, something like a gift for someone?
According to the comics, BB sold nutrients for magical energy replenishment to Servants in SERAPH for money. It's close to that.
Of course, I might do some sharing for Chaldea too. The profit is closer to support without gain.
Why? Because I'm bored... Sounds like something a certain Demon King would say.
So I chose and summoned a Servant good at business.
"You know what to do, right?"
"Of course~ In that sense, thank you for summoning me. It's my specialty, after all? And at the same time... because it's an opportunity I was never given."
Well... I'm a considerate person in my own way. I don't intend to show off with this... but perhaps I should say I'm someone who wanted to see this too.
Romani.
=============================
"Sigh... I'm tired."
Romani was as tired as usual from Chaldea's work. Even though the outside doesn't currently exist, Chaldea is an official UN organization. Also, because it's deeply related to the Clock Tower, a detailed report on the process after the Incineration of Humanity is needed.
Most staff, including Director Olga Marie and Romani, were not only managing Chaldea but also organizing these numerous reports and records.
Romani, tired from overtime, had just finished his shift and was heading to the infirmary. Before going to his room, he planned to review the last report he did. He slacks off sometimes, but Romani is surprisingly thorough and meticulous in his work.
It's not for nothing he's a manager in charge of the medical department.
Romani yawns and enters the infirmary. However, the atmosphere in the infirmary felt somewhat strange.
"This is...?"
A familiar, familiar magical energy to him was felt. The magical energy of a Jin (Spirit) felt around the 10th century BC.
"Finally, we meet. After all these years, we finally meet."
"You, you are..."
"Long time no see, Solomon."
"... Bilqis."
Bilqis. Her other name is the Queen of Sheba.
A figure appearing in the Books of Kings and the New Testament, she came to King Solomon and posed three riddles, and later left her name as the mother of the first emperor of Ethiopia, a daughter of spirits.
"Why are you here..."
"Because the Master summoned me for business~♪ Ah, of course, I'm just in a partner relationship with the Master?"
At Bond Level 6, she is the Master's close friend and a sworn loyal Master. That's all. Humpty himself summoned her for that reason, and... because he saw Romani.
"Uh... I, I see..."
"... Is that all you have to say, all your thoughts?"
"W-well, I mean..."
The Queen of Sheba stared intently at Romani.
Romani was just flustered. And rightly so, apart from Humpty's group and Da Vinci, the fact that he is Solomon is a strict secret, and yet he blatantly summoned the Queen of Sheba.
Of course... In Chaldea, no one even knows who the Queen of Sheba is, so it's just unnecessary worry. She's a truly hipster moon-like Servant.
"Really... Isn't that too bland a reaction? If you at least freaked out, I'd understand, but being only slightly flustered like that is rather hurtful..."
"Ahaha... How should I put it, since there's 「 」, I suppose I understood immediately upon seeing you?"
"Are you talking about another woman in front of me now? Well... you did have many others besides me, after all?"
"That's not what I meant... Sorry, I am indeed flustered and surprised. I can't foresee such a future anymore, you see... Because I'm no longer the all-powerful Mage King of old. The king you were interested in is gone now... so I'm a bit worried about how to treat you, I guess?"
"... Solomon, no. Romani."
The Queen of Sheba approached him, gently held his cheeks, and looked up at him.
"It's alright. Certainly, my purpose for visiting Israel was because of that ability of yours... but during all these years, thinking of you was simply because I wanted to see you, the person."
"Bilqis..."
"You may not know... but when I arrived, you, the person, had already left. The person I so wanted to meet had left before I could arrive, how vexing. For years, I lived in the world you left behind. No matter what happened, I lived in a world that existed because of you and moved forward. The more that happened, the more I missed you. There are people who miss you, but the very subject can't be met. So I think of this moment now... as a miracle. A miracle the Master gave me."
"..."
"Seeing you like this... feels nice. Romani."
"... Somehow, it's embarrassing. I'm just a beast now, you know."
"Ehehe~ No problem, it's not a problem at all! By the way... it seems something was going on, could you show me?"
"It's just boring report review..."
"That's fine too."
"If that's the case... Ah, I have some sweets. Want to have some?"
"I'd love to~"
"You see, I got these from Canada last time. It's a limited edition, so I waited in line for 3 hours! Ah, this one's from Texas──"
"This is the good stuff. I love this kind of thing."
"Is that so?"
"Of course. In villainess stories, there are also righteous fans who enjoy seeing the original protagonist and male lead getting along well and living together."
Watching the two from hiding with a concealment spell with Kebab, I could probably eat several bowls of rice. Ah, this is the best.
"I don't really get it. I didn't know them originally... More importantly, shall we go eat some cake?"
"Yeah yeah, let's go."
With this, the debt for the sweets is repaid, right? Doctor Roman.
Wow, I just sounded like a really cringey otaku character. Ugh~ My hands and feet are curling up so much I might become grilled squid. Still, feels good.
