“Dahlia-san, is there something wrong?”

When I arrived back at the commerce guild, Ivano-san asked me anxiously.

“I think Orlando-san will come by later today so please proceed with the cancellation. I will re-register the contract after that. I’m sorry but please prepare a notary for me at that time.”

“Understood.”

“Also, he said that the Orlando company will no longer do business with me in the future so can you please introduce other firms that I can for me later?”

“Ha, that is, Tobias-san said that?”

Ivano’s mouth remained to hang open.

“Yes, I was told by Orlando-san directly so that is definite.”

“I’m sorry, I will have to confirm that the deputy guild manager so can I ask you to wait a little?”

“Please accept an apology from my side as well, I have to trouble you again……”

Seeing Ivano ran up the stairs, Dahlia let out a sigh.

It seems I will not be going home any time soon.

“Oh, Dahlia-chan. Hello.”

Looking back at the voice behind me, it was Marcella.

“As I thought, Dahlia-chan really looks better with red hair. I’m just here on a delivery, this is the final one for the day you see.”

“Thank you, this is Irma’s work you know. Hey, did Marcella-san talked with the transport guild for me?”

“Well, I was told that the clothes were out of stock so I only put in a recommendation though.”

“Thanks. I will do my best and get you something good.”

“It would help me a lot if you do that. It’s really annoying when the luggage got wet after all.”

Suddenly, Marcella looked around.

“Are you having a meeting?”

“Yes, I’m looking for a new associate company, it’s going to be difficult to work with Orlando company from now on after all.”

In the commerce guild, you can accept the jobs personally but the upper limit of the commissioned amount for one transaction will become lower.

In addition, there the problem of trust. If you are not associated with a company, the number of suppliers for materials for magic tools will be limited as well. Because of that, Dahlia decided to look for a new company to be associated with.

“It’s too much trouble to meet with that idiot after all huh.”

Since he no longer even call Tobias with his name, let’s not tell him about the meeting earlier.

“Dahlia-chan, how about you finally make a [Rosetti Company] for yourself. If you do that you can buy up the supply however much you want right?”

“Making a company? Taking the deposit aside, four guarantors is impossible for me you know.”

Dahlia reply with a bitter smile.

It is possible to create a new company by yourself but you would need fifteen gold coins as a deposit along with four or more guarantors.

A guarantor must be an adult, each of them must make at least four gold coins deposit, and they must be registered as a president or vice president of a company at the commerce guild for more than three years or they must be a member of the related guilds such as transport guild, clothing guild, etc. for at least three years. The other option is to be a noble with a peerage of a viscount or higher.

The responsibility of a guarantor is heavy. If the new company commits an illegal act, even if he or she doesn’t know anything about it they would still need to pay a large fine as a guarantor.

The deposits will be returned with interest according to earnings after two years but if they bankrupt in that time period, the guarantor must be subjected to the company’s debt as well.

It’s not something that anyone is willing to do so easily.

“[Rosetti Company] sounds good. Count me in.”

When I was wondering where the voice came from, Gabriella is walking down the hallway with a smile.

Behind her are Ivano and Dominique the notary.

“Dahlia-san, since you have such an opportunity, why don’t you make your own company?”

“If you are going to make one then I will be one of your guarantors.”

“Wait, Marcella-san! What are you saying, don’t you have to consult with Irma first?”

“If it’s Irma then she would be angrier if I don’t make my decision now. And let me say this, I do have a lot of savings you know.”

“If I can be one of your guarantors then please allow me to be. Ah, I haven’t introduced myself yet. I am called Mezzena Greaves.”

Said the man with chestnut color hair who is carrying the luggage behind Marcella.

“Why would you do something like that for someone like me?”

“It’s purely an investment. The transportation industry is a fight against the rain you see. Your waterproof clothes and raincoats really helped us out. You might invent more of something like that in the future, so if it’s going to make my work easier I would happily lend you my help you know. And hopefully, we would like the gate that will open and close automatically too if possible.”

Following Mezzena’s smile, Ivano raises his hand.

“I also want to be your guarantor. You have no need to worry Dahlia. This is purely an investment on my side too. Please rake in a lot of profit to me in two years as well.”

“That makes three. I want to be your guarantor too but I can’t become one because I am a notary. I will talk with my sons and grandchildren for you when I get home. The ones that are already associated with the guild are my son and three of my grandchildren, I think they will definitely become your guarantors.”

Dominique happily said so but it is moving all too fast and Dahlia still can’t keep up with everyone.

For things to be so smooth like this is weird, it makes her think that don’t everyone have things they have to shoulder themselves.

“Dominique-san, there’s no need for that. I will fill up the empty slot myself. It will be under my husband’s name though.”

The husband of deputy guild manager Gabriella is Viscount Jeddah, the guild manager. Dahlia involuntarily breathed in.

“The guild manager as a guarantor? That’s good and all but Viscount Jeddah is currently in the neighboring country….won’t the authorization seal take some time to arrive?”

“It’s alright. The authorization seal is always at my desk.”

Deputy guild manager, why do you have your husband’s authorization seal with you? Is it really alright?

Everybody has a common question but to Gabriella’s perfect smile, no one could speak up against her.

“Alright, let’s continue this in the conference room.”

“Yes. you are alright with me being your guarantor right Dahlia-san?”

“Please wait a minute, everyone, is this really fine? It’s sudden so I haven’t prepared anything yet and I am just a novice magic tools craftsman so I don’t think that I can create such profit in just two year……”

“What are you saying, you are already a full-fledged one when you invented the waterproof clothes right? If you want the research fund then isn’t it alright to increase the number of the guarantors? If the transport guild says that [The inventor of the waterproof clothes just established a company, won’t you also become her guarantor!?] or something like that, I think a lot of people will show up you know.”

“If you are going to do that then I think there are plenty of commerce guild members who would want to join in though, shall we do it?”

“Please, stop. I beg you!”

With how fast the matter progressed, not just the talk that she can’t keep up with, her stomach can’t keep up with it too.

“If you don’t have enough money then you can use the guarantors’ deposit and if that is still not enough the guarantors can increase their deposit amount too. Your office will be registered at the green tower so you would need eight documents for that. If you do not understand anything you can ask the staff here, myself included. The rest is up to you Dahlia.”

After she said that, Gabriella glanced at Marcella and Ivano.

“Hey Dahlia-chan, the things that you said you want to try using someday might be available for you too you know? You said you wanted to use the scales of Fire Dragon and Wind Dragon or the skin of the Sea Serpent right?

“In the neighboring country, I heard that the griffon was defeated the other day. There might be some of its materials coming our way and If the supplies circulation increased, I think you can get other rare materials too you know.”

I know that the material they listed is not something that can be obtained easily and are quite expensive.

But as a magic tools craftsman, it would be like a dream if you can obtain them.

I want to make a magic tool with high heat-resistant with Fire Dragon’s scale.

Is it possible to make flight magic tools with the scales of a Wind Dragon?

I want to find out if the water flow will really change on the skin of a Sea Serpent or not.

If I can get my hands on a dream material from something like a griffon, I would be happy just by checking its property.

And my heart would scream If it’s the material that I haven’t seen before.

“….Alright, let’s head to the meeting room to draft the company contract.”

“Yes.”

Dahlia easily surrendered.
