Isekai Nonbiri Nouka

I am Ekaterize.

I am a daughter of a duke of a certain country but I left them and came to the Demon King’s Kingdom.

Not officially.

But secretly.

It’s not like I’m thinking of doing something bad against the Demon King’s Kingdom.

Maybe.

No, I’m certain.

I’m not thinking of raising a rebel force against the Demon King’s Kingdom nor trying to gain power to speak with the demon king on equal terms.

What I was thinking about is my own happiness.

Well, as an added bonus, I will also consider the happiness of those who accompanied me.

But I’ll focus on my own happiness first.

Yeah, with my own power.

In this day and age, or rather, being born into a noble family in a human country, a political marriage is bound to happen but apparently, I’m not so lucky.

In fact, I was raised to be the bride of the country’s 1st prince but this prince was an unbelievable fool.

You want to know how much of a fool he is…..

To put it simply, he thinks he owns the whole country.

He wasn’t even the king but he was making all kinds of promises as he pleased.

I have no problem with promises made for personal purposes but no matter how you look at it, they are all about royal power and politics…..

To give an example, he allowed a certain noble family to participate in a war with just his permission or exempted a favored trading company from toll and trade tax.

He also intervened in promises made by the king or between nobles and then, violated them without permission.

He is not just a fool. He’s an absolute moron.

However, he does have his good points.

He had the opportunity to come in contact with the less fortunate throughout the country and seeing their state, he handed out money.

That is admirable.

Wonderful.

If he is doing that using his own money.

However, what he gave away was the country’s money.

Do you know how I felt when I learned of that?

I am absolutely speechless.

I learned that when you get too angry, you can really be at a loss for words.

And what did he do after giving them money?

Normally, everyone knows that daily food on the table is more important than money, so it is better to provide them a stable way to earn money.

And yet, he just gave them money and pretended that everything was fine.

That is…..yes, it’s beyond foolishness, it’s harmful desu yo.

Just being alive is a sin.

That is his existence.

And I’m supposed to be his bride.

You should understand the reason why I ran away now.

Yes, there’s another reason that made me decide to run away.

The king.

He was protecting that fool of a prince and left him alone without even scolding him.

He is an excellent king but when it is related to the 1st prince, he becomes a fool of a parent.

When I complained to him about the 1st prince’s behavior, he shunned me.

Then, I complained bitterly about shunning me, he scolded me.

He said that I am his daughter in law and I should support the prince.

Hahaha.

I wish everyone would acknowledge my effort because I didn’t hit the king on the spot.

And when I left the royal castle, I heard a report that the 1st prince had unjustly taken away the rights of a trading company I was working on.

「Such a store is not suitable for you. I’ll provide you a more suitable place.」

I don’t remember what happened next.

However, judging from the prince lying on the ground a distance away and my posture, I would guess that……

It seems like I blown him away with taezanko.

To put it simply, taezanko is a shoulder to rear body blow.

When approaching an opponent, you are naturally facing the front, so it takes some skill to hit him with the back of the body just before contact.

This is a technique directly handed down from my family of duke.

I’m not sorry that I hit him.

I felt better.

And I apologized to my parents and left the country.

My parents also had their own feelings about the prince and they made all kinds of arrangements for me at the expense of our duke family.

Thanks to them, I managed to arrive at the Demon King’s Kingdom without any injury.

That was several years ago, I was 16 years old at that time.

I had confidence in myself.

I was confident that I could succeed in business in the Demon King’s Kingdom.

I had confidence in beauty and gourmet.

Of course, it was not a baseless confidence.

When I was still a duke’s daughter, I had immersed myself in business and made it successful.

Well, the skill of the merchants I employed must have had influence so I won’t take the full credit.

However, the idea was mine.

I was the one who made the prototypes.

It was also me who decided the direction of the store.

It is possible that the butlers and maid servants who work for me may have made some corrections…..

Anyway, it’s all because of a certain talent of mine.

Resourcefulness desu!

It is normal for me to be confident!

However, the Demon King’s Kingdom was not so easy.

The environment of a human kingdom and the demon kingdom were too different.

In the human kingdom, majority of the populace are humans but in the Demon King’s Kingdom, there are a variety of races.

My main products are lotion, milky lotion, cream, etc, all beauty products.

These need to be prepared for each species.

Of course, research must be conducted to create the optimal lotion, milky lotion, and cream.

Research from scratch is expensive and we can’t expect them to sell well for each race.

Then, we thought of targeting the most populous race in the demon kingdom……

The goblins were not interested in beauty.

The beastkins had their own beauty regimen.

The demons did not have any trouble with beauty with the help of their magic power.

No, some demons were also concerned with their beauty products and not just magic power alone but most of those who did were nobles and they wanted to be embraced so we can only give up.

Even though I abandoned my family, I’m still a member of a duke’s family so……I’m reluctant to be embraced by a noble of the Demon King’s Kingdom.

Given what happened, I found that it’s too tough to make money using beauty products.

But I still have gourmet…..

In the Demon King’s Kingdom, mysterious seasonings such as soy sauce, miso, and mayonnaise were widely used.

I tasted dishes made with these seasonings and they were very tasty.

It was a shock to me, as I only used seasonings such as salts, herbs, or pepper.

However, I also felt that I had broadened my cooking horizons at once.

I was eager to try new dishes with new seasonings.

I was enthusiastic but of course, similar things are done in the Demon King’s Kingdom as well…..

Marla in Shashaato City.

Kuro and Yuki, Bronze Cafe, Korin’s Sweet Temple, Noodle Shop Britoa, and Niz’s Alcomeat in Village Five.

And many more establishments that must have been influenced by them stood before us as rivals.

Of course, we have no intention of losing.

But we knew that without careful preparation, we would only end up with a loss.

We were in an unfamiliar territory so we also needed to have a steady supply of food raw materials.

It is not something that can be solved just because of an idea.

I made a decision.

Moving forward is not everything.

Sometimes, it is necessary to stay where you are and save your strength.

I have set up a base in a certain village in the Demon King’s Kingdom.

My position is that I am an exile from the land of humans.

I tell everyone around that I am here to avoid the war.

And so, I work in the fields in this village.

That’s right.

It’s a preparation to compete in gourmet.

If I grow my own food, I can get it consistently.

And I don’t have to worry about anyone interfering with my work.

For the time being, the sale of crops will also provide income.

Fufufu.

I’ll do my best.

…….

Farming is hard.

It’s not easy to do.

It is too dependent on climate and weather.

You wouldn’t know about the heat waves or cold waves that only happen at certain times of the year unless you lived here for many years!

I tried for several years but my farming failed.

The money I took out of the duchy is about to run out.

I’m in a pinch.

Most of the people who accompanied me have gone to work in Shashaato City or Village Five.

And I heard that they were living better than me here.

Gununu.

I will not accept charity.

I have my pride.

However, it is also true that there is nothing else I can do.

What should I do then?

All I have left is…..my body.

I do not lack beauty.

Even while farming, I never left my guard down.

Though it might sound narcissistic, I am a beautiful woman desu.

My age has piled up a little but…..I’m still before 20.

I’m not sure if it’s possible to become a rich man’s wife or not.

I don’t have any prejudice against demons, beastkins, or any other race.

One day, I was in deep thoughts.

When the parade of the Demon King’s Kingdom passed through the village, there was a commotion.

The village where I settled has a teleportation gate and it is quite inconvenient that the passage has been temporarily restricted but since I’m allowed to use it free of charge, I don’t have any complaints.

Thanks to the teleportation gate, I can make day trips to the distant Shashaato City or even Village Five.

I just need to bear with it for a few days.

………..

Demon King’s Kingdom’s parade.

So, we can naturally assume that the people participating in it are of a certain status, right?

A certain status.

In other words, rich.

No, the village chief of the village I am in was also invited so not all of them, I guess……

Won’t it be a dream come true if I get recognized by a parade participant?

Make up, let’s put our heart and soul into it.

I usually won’t do this desu.
