Entering the Royal Palace I asked for an urgent meeting with the Queen.

'The people who want to fight with me truly don't know how terrifying a bunny bite can be when he is cornered'

"Ceci-chan, what happened that you need to meet me so urgent? Has somebody bullied you?"

"Actually somebody was bold enough to do so, do you believe Aunt? So I'm here to ask Her Majesty help. I promise that the Royal Family will have profit in return for your help"

"Oh? Say, what happened and what do you want to do"

"Someone is targeting IP. We are currently investigating to see who the mastermind is. They tried two tactics that didn't work and I presume that their next step is to discredit our products and once our reputation is in the mud they will try to copy the products and sell them. As for the solution it needs the help from the Royal Household"

"Say"

"For the attempt of throwing our name on mud, I will put a plaque with a declaration in the front of each store stating that our products are fully tested, but that some people may be allergic to some of the substances inside, before using the client should see what ingredients the product contains. Plus the declaration will also instate that the employees and the households with the crests that I will gather and put on the plaque use and approve our products. So I need the crest of the Royal Family"

"Well, you shall have it. After all, we do often use your wonderful products. But aren't you afraid that if you put the materials used on your products, the rate of fakes will rise?"

"That brings me to my second solution. We will implement a system of Patents. The Patent System will work like this: the creator will register their products on the Royal Bank. He will need to prove that the product was his creation, by showing some kind of evidence. In the case of companies they should show that the creations by their employees were allowed to be own by the company. For example, in IP we had our staff sign a contract that any inventions created on workplace or using our materials shall be owned, even if partially, by the company. When registering the product the individual shall state the name of the product, What is the use of the product and what it needs to be created (measures, materials and etc.). After registering only the individuals who pay a certain fee can use the idea of the product."

"But what if someone register the same product under different names?"

"If the name or the how to of a product is the same of a register product it shall be denied. And if individuals are caught using unauthorized products they shall have to pay a penalty"

"For whom the money of the patent goes for?"

"I thought something like 50% for the registered person, 25% for the bank and 25% for the Royal Family. What do you say my Queen?"


"Oh Ceci-chan you became an amazing merchant!"

"Fufu~ its all thanks to the quick-wit developed by that hell tutors"

"I will submit the Patent System to His Majesty, I'll try to put into work by the end of the week. I can't have my daughter to be, being bullied can I"

Smiling to the Queen, I decided that for the sake of saving IP, I would let the daughter to pass.

Letting an evil grin I thought how fun the next days will be

'Oh my dear opponent let me see how you crumble in despair'

...

Leaving the Royal Palace I went to gathered as many emblems as I could. At the end of the day I gathered 30 emblems of all types of nobles.

The next day I went to a blacksmith opened by someone from Spero and explained what I wanted. After 30 minutes I had 4 rose gold plaques written the following:

"The products of this establishment are all tested before being used. They may contain some allergen, please check the ingredients list before using. The products offered are used and approved by the employees and the following households: 32 noble emblems. graciously IP Director.

Before the opening of the stores the plaques were hanged at the entrance of each store. Because it had the noble emblems and the royal emblem, some people stop to read it. But even so, 2 days after the plaque was hanged people came to complain on Asters about the side effects of some beauty problems. Since I couldn't say if the individuals bought before or after the plaque being hanged I took them to the doctor to see if their symptoms were really due to the products.

'Seems that the mastermind is at least a bit smart. If he just paid someone to pretend it would backfire and people would realize that someone was trying to smear IP's name. But your trick it's still manageable'

"As the Director of IP, I am extremely sorry for the results of our negligence. Because this is our fault, I would like to pay for your treatment and pay you a handsome compensation for the pains you suffered due to the product. Once again I'm extremely sorry"

Bowing to them, I can see the surprise stamp on their face. I can even imagine what they are thinking just judging their expression. It must be something like 'how could be so easy'

"After you finish recuperating you can go to IP and discuss the compensation. I promise to be fair when compensating you"

"How can we believe you?"

Fufu~ how silly you are of course...

"You don't have another choice do you?"

If you don't trust me then what? The plaque is there. They can't prove that they bought before and the products are popular. Can you sway the crowd? You can't.

Seeing the silence in the room I flashed them a smile and left the room.

...

"So, have we found who is behind?"
