Japan. Inside one of a mansion’s rooms located in an urban region.
Fiona was deep in thought in front of her PC together with Navi, her observer cat, overseeing her.
“What are yuu doing? Do you have something you are worried about?”
“Ah, not really. Actually about [Anchor]...I was wondering if there’s like a more effective, elegant, and with lesser risk, yet simpler way of finding solution to issues”
“How much are you going to conveniently increase the hurdle? I believe it is exactly because they are [Anchor] that they are able to give flexible responses though… Well, why don’t you try searching for the solution or some sort yourself? Especially since you have [PeeSee]”1
Receiving that reply, the goddess turned to her PC immediately.
“Ok, go〇gle! [How to make delicious onsen egg]...and enter”2
“Please don’t mention company names. Also, what on earth are you searching for?”
“Well, stuffs like these”
“What’s with that? Anyway, it’s about time to enter the main story”

“Navi, is there any response from [Anchor]?”
“Please give me a moment. I am currently trying to connect to Fiona-syama’s room with oracle(line call). Oh, there are some replies already”
The Goddess and God’s messenger conversed with jargons that Mimosa and the inhabitants of this world would not understand.
“The question was---[ways to cut off connection with outsiders]... This time it was designated as new thread 100 in [Anchor]. ---Well den, the reply is...”
>> 100
【Tell them everything honestly】
“...eh?”
Mimosa became dumbfounded with that solution.
【I think it’s not good to lie (swings rod)】
【There is compensation money for breaking the penalty, right? It’s totally fine】
【It's a frontal attack! (half-heartedly)】

“Erm, Fiona-sama...no matter how you see it, that’s a little...”
Alp’s mother, Sonia, spoke in an unsettled voice. As a result, Alp too became uneasy as he listened to the oracle.
“Hmm”
Meanwhile, Ron nodded to himself
“Certainly, that might not be a bad idea”
Continuing, Margot voiced her agreement.
“What do you mean, Margot?”
“You see, it’s something common amongst merchants and contracts. [Purposely] doing just like this”
“Purposely?”
Alp replied with a question directly.
“I and Granola-san are merchants after all. We are able to understand what they meant instantly. In other words---[Tell them everything honestly] meant to report about Fiona-sama and the God’s messenger, Navi-sama”
“I-is that really alright?”
“Mimosa-san has to report no matter what right? The God’s messenger, Navi-sama, appeared...and the Goddess Fiona-sama had also descended. That they had seen through everything and even then, they do not mind their information being reported. How would the [outsider] respond if you write your report honestly and give it to them?”
“Aah...”
Then the non-merchants, Alp and his mother as well as Bartlett, finally understood the reason.

“---well if it’s me, I won’t believe it. Even after seeing it myself, I still can’t believe it after all. They might even get mad and break the contract… Yeah! Somehow I start to feel like things will go well!”
At this time, Mimosa’s face regained her brilliance.
“But let me apologize first. I thought you are a weirdo for saying nonsense when you first appeared...I should have known better that Gods has their own deep thoughts”
“Fu, fufufu, have you witnessed it? My farsightedness and great mind! (aah, thank goodness everything got interpreted in a good way again)”
“Here, wipe that waterfall-like sweat”
“...and Alp-san I guess? I’m not really sure how to say this though. Are you really sure, about us? Will you really forgive us?”
|■ Baxia Kingdom. Capital Blanc|
|■ Boggat House residence|
“Fiona-sama has given her approval, right? Then there’s nothing else for the apostle me to say. Please treat me well from now onwards. ---money, is it? Advance salary? I don’t think it’s necessary to return it. To begin with they are money obtained thanks to Fiona-sama. Not to mention...I have my own thoughts regarding the [outsider] too...”
Alp turned his gaze to his mother for a moment and she responded with a smile.
“Goodness, how long is everyone going to stay awake? Dear, even you too? ---Alp-chan needs to work at Simon-kun’s store tomorrow, right? You should go to sleep soon”
Her grandmother, Claire Boggat, turned up to discourage them from staying up too late.
“Mhm...that’s true, *yawn*...I’m sorry grandma, I’ll sleep soon… yes, Fiona-sama. Good night...”
And the conversation between Baxia and Fraul Kingdoms via oracle was cut off.

“Well then...all that is left is when to tell that guy that we refuse his request”
“That guy?”
Mimosa recalled the face of [outsider] in annoyance.
“It’s the [outsider] client that gave the task to me. I think he’s called Lamcour… I also have to prepare a report and meet him one more time at Baxia Representative’s place”
“Marquis Valencia’s residence, is it?”
“Since it’s representative-sama’s place after all. I think he won’t do anything shady. Just in case, I will leave Fudgy here though”
Towards Mimosa’s words, Navi replied anxiously.
“Hmm...so yuu will be alone. I believe it is better to have someone accompany yuu. But since Fudgy will stay, it might be good to leave another person here as well”
“Ah! How about Navi go together with you? I will take care of Fudgy here---”
“...will yuu properly take care of him?”
“Of course! From bathing him to changing his cloth and even his toilet care”
“Hm? Ehm, he’s not childish to that point though”
“...Mimosa-syan please go together with Fiona-syama. I will look after Fudgy-kun instead”
“Why?!”
Fiona raised her voice in protest and Mimosa too, followed.
“But, if you ask me, I’d rather have a male to accompany me… That way, I believe they won’t look down on me during the negotiation”
“I understand your point. But catching rats is a cat’s(me) job after all”
“”??””
Hearing Navi’s words, Fiona and Mimosa looked at each other in confusion.
