I’ve Reincarnated, So I’m Going to Try Trading With Earth by Myself

Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Importing for the First Time



A clunky warp mistook Tokyo for Kyoto, and I ended up in Akihabara.

"Hey, it's a Lina Marderita cosplay."

"Maybe a plainclothes version. It's really high level."

The men pointing at me.

Then some people gathered around and started to set up their cameras in front of me.

"Excuse me, may I take a picture?"

"Eh? what?"

When I turned around, the shutter glowed with a snapping sound.

"Umm…"

"Oh, can I get a smile like on yutube?"

"Y-yes."

The crouching cameraman gave me instructions, and I couldn't help but smile like when I was doing a yutube shoot.

"Oh, it's so similar!"

"It looks just like Lina …"

"And she even have a replica of the rear car that Lina uses …"

"This is god-level cosplay!"

Another white light flashes across the street.

What's going on here?

Apparently, they thought that the rear car I was carrying was one of the cosplay items.

The cameramen have a mysterious leadership style, the front row lowers their posture and the back row gets down on their knees to shoot.

What kind of civilization is this? I've never seen anything like it.

"Um, can I post the pictures online?"

The man with glasses in the front row came to ask me.

I don't really care about that, because my picture is already all over the Internet.

"Okay, but I'm sorry, I just need to go…"

When I put my hand forward, the photographer in the front row looks up.

"Costume change?"

"No, I have something to do …"

"All right. Stop shooting. Move out!"

At the man's signal, the cameramen backed off.

What a disciplined group. I don't get it.

"That Kameko, as expected"

"He immediately assessed the restroom-like situation of the princess and moved the herd of Kameko. He's the leader of the pack."

The men who were watching from afar commented on the cameraman's behavior.

What a world this is.

I rushed to pull the transport plane away and put on the hat I had prepared.

The most conspicuous part is still the pink hair and ears, so wearing a hat would help keep them out of sight.

But still, what the hell is this place?

There are photo shoots going on all over the place, just like now.

Is this a cosplay event?

Some women are gathering at the wall, attracting a large crowd. They' re wearing very revealing outfits.

I evacuated and headed towards the less popular area. 

There was a toilet in the corner, so I decided to go in there for the time being.

I was a little nervous, so I wanted to do the small one.

I left the transport plane outside and ran into a private room to finish my business.

Phew.

With this kind of situation every time, it might be difficult to take advantage of the random warp and go to Nara.

After all, I have a rear car.

It's going to stand out and attract people right away.

When I was talking to myself.

I heard a clatter, as if someone had fallen.

"Oh, my God, at a time like this."

I heard an irritated voice and hurriedly opened the door.

I looked over and saw a woman in a gorgeous white dress sitting at the entrance to the restroom.

"What's the matter?"

"It's nothing. I just kinda tripped and fell. ... Anyway, are you dressed as Lina Marderita?"

When she saw my face, she asked me in surprise.

It's too much trouble to deny it, so I'll just go along with it here.

"… Y-yes."

"It's amazing. I can't believe you look exactly the same even with a hat on. I'm jealous."

"Oh, and by the way, your feet are …"

The woman's right foot was swollen up quite a bit at the ankle.

That' s quite an injury.

"My heels didn't fit, and when I fell, my feet kind of twisted."

"Are you okay?"

"I'll figure it out. I have to stand out today, no matter what."

Then the woman tries to force herself to stand up.

But as far as I could see, it was at least a sprain. If she's not careful, the bone will be damaged.

She moves forward with a limp. Is there a reason why she is so passionate about cosplay?

"Please don't push yourself too hard. You need to go to the hospital right away, you know"

"No, I can't. I have a promise"

I tried to stop her, but she said so with a strong look in her eyes.

"Promise?"

"Yes. I'm running a small anime theater company. That's why we cosplay at these events to promote our plays. Everyone is really excited about the upcoming show. I promised I'd bring in the audience, so I have to do it…"

Apparently, she is on a mission.

I wanted to give her a helping hand.

"Um, wait a minute. I have some good medicine for you"

"What medicine?"

I took out a magic stone from my bag and placed it on her foot.

As I prayed for healing with my magic, the area around her foot glowed a little and the swelling in her foot went down.

"Eh, no way…"

She looked down at it and was stunned.

"I think you' ll be okay with this for now. Can you walk?"

When I asked her, she stepped forward fearfully.

"….. Eh, it's cured. Is this ... magic? Are you really Lina?"

The woman looks at me with an expression that says she can't believe it.

"Haha, please don't overdo it too much. See you later."

I didn't want to cause any more commotion.

I hurriedly decided to leave the place.

"Um, thank you!"

I waved back at her as she shouted from afar, and left the event hall.

Soon after, I found a police station and handed my passport to the officer to prove my identity.

From there, as usual, I was surrounded by guards and sent to Kyoto.

It was late in the evening, but I made it to the Nikkendo headquarters.

All I had to do this time was go through the formalities and pick up the goods.

The first thing I did was to sign the paperwork to establish a firm contract between our company, Galerina, and Nikkendo.

"Here's the contract with the alien company…"

"Yeah, it's the first ever contract between Japan and Maldea."

The sales people in suits were looking at the documents as if they were thrilled.

Later, we decided to discuss the status of our business.

"How are the retail orders coming in at Maldea?"

I nodded confidently to the salesperson who asked.

"Yes, the product is very attractive, and we've already received orders for about 4,000 units from dealers. Now we need to wait and see whether the customers will buy it or not…."

When I looked down with a little bit of anxiety, the man with side parting haircut smiled at me.

Then he pulled out a bundle of colorful papers from the cardboard.

"We've prepared posters and other promotional materials. We also have booklets and pop-ups to introduce Swizz. Please have them placed in your stores."

What was opened was a bright poster with a game console and Maruo on it.

This would be an easy way to catch Switz attention in the store.

They also prepared a variety of other promotional goods.

"Thank you! I'm sure this will catch the customer's attention. I'll give it to the retailer along with the product itself."

"We're counting on you. If sales are good, we'll prepare the next 5,000 units right away. We'll consider increasing production after that."

"I look forward to working with you."

After we finished talking business, I headed downstairs to the lobby.

The place was normally empty, but there was a large number of game consoles there.

5,000 switz with Hypermaruo and 3,000 packaged software of Maruokarts.

And boxes containing peripherals and other items are lined up in a row.

"We'll need personnel to help with the transport immediately."

The salesperson tried to arrange it immediately, but I stopped him.

"No need. I'm fine on my own."

I used my telekinetic powers to levitate about ten of the Switzers at once and put them into the transport plane.

The Switz were then shrunk to about 1/1000th of their original size and placed in a corner of the transport plane.

Repeating the process, I placed one after another into the transport machine.

It must have taken about ten minutes.

Five thousand Switz and their peripherals easily fit into a rear-car like transport plane.

"This is amazing. I can't believe it all fits in such a small rear-car …"

The salesman's eyes widened at my work.

I made sure the floor was empty and greets him.

"That's all. Now I will return to Maldaea."

"Okay. Thank you very much for your time today."

I nodded and replied to the man who bowed politely.

"Yes. Thank you very much for preparing the promotional materials for us as well. I will make sure that the first five thousand units are delivered to the people of Maldea. Now, excuse me."

I activated the device on my arm and warped to Maldea.
