Even Though I was the Real Saint, I was Exiled—Which Means my Country is Over

30 · Shopping at the market

To get cookies for Nigel's birthday gift, start by collecting ingredients in the city.

That's why I got into Lynch Giham's lively "market."

"It's cheap, it's cheap! What a tomato, 50 bells!

"Have a look! It's got fresh eggs!

"Whoa, that girl over there. Why don't you just take a look inside the store?

Even if I was walking like this, the store clerks kept calling out to me.

"Hmm, after all, this vibrancy is the flavor of the market!

I've wanted to carry my legs for a long time, but I couldn't make it.

There are many shops on the market that are basically cheap.

Some would think it a little inappropriate to make a cookie for Prince Nigel.

However, these markets can be surprisingly unearthed.

Nevertheless, some of them are fraudulent and suspicious, so I need to be careful.

"We have a limited budget."

Since then, if Nigel and the castle people were cooking occasionally, they would call it a "salary" and receive a penny.

At first I said no, but I said, "What are you talking about? They make such a wonderful dish. I can't believe it's for free..." Nigel pushed me.

That's why I have enough money to buy cookie ingredients.

But when I went to the luxury shop for the nobles, I was fine and a box of 100,000 bells of butter was sold.

As soon as we got there, we had a budget.

"Well, this looks like a nice place."

Among them, I stopped before the store opened.

"Oops, miss. You're quite beautiful. Could it be the aristocrats?

Someone who looks like a clerk slaps me lightly.

But soon, my uncle came out from behind and dropped his fist on the clerk's head.

"Bakayaro! I don't think the nobles are coming to this shop!

"Well, that's true...."

"Just because you're a beautiful woman doesn't mean you're naughty! Get to work!

Is the uncle scolding the store manager?

The angry clerk whispered.

Well then, young lady. Why don't you take a look? If you're a beauty like your daughter, you can give her a little break. "

When the clerk spoke without discipline, the uncle of the store manager stared at him from behind.

"Yes, thank you."

As I watched, I felt a smile and smiled little.

Now... take it easy.

Ah, you keep chocolate. You might want to try chocolate cookies with this.

And the caramel... this is going to change my mind.

Buy them all!

Nigel would rather enjoy a variety of flavors than just one type of cookie.

I choose and buy some items.

"Oh no!

By the way... I got a slip. The budget was limited and fortunate.

"Then... should I buy some butter?

Move to other stores to collect cookie ingredients.

There were many casual shoppers and I was able to fully enjoy shopping for the first time in a long time.

I noticed that it moved from the edge of the long market to the edge.

"You've collected enough ingredients. It's time to go back...."

When I tried to turn my heel back.

Hmm?

That's where I stop my feet.

To attract tourists, the market is set up just outside the main gate of Lynch Guiham.

So from here, I can worship the main gate of the big Lynch Giham...

"Looks like you're rubbing something, right?

The gatekeeper was arguing with a man.

"So if you don't have a permit and you don't have money, you can't put it in Lynch Guiham."

"Why? Originally, you can go in from the sky (...), but you're trying to get in through the entrance with manners. Respect my will."

Apparently, the man arguing with the gatekeeper wants to enter Lynch Giham.

What is it?

I shaved my neck.

I wouldn't have tried to stick it in my neck just because I thought so.

The doorman is doing his job properly. Because I am an outsider and I will be in trouble even if I get into extra trouble.

But I don't know... I don't know what it is anymore.

Because the man arguing with the gatekeeper wasn't very nice, but I didn't think it was the first time I saw him.

Why is that?

I'm sure it's the first time I've seen it...

"Can I just talk to you for a second?"

I never come near the main gate,

"Um... what's wrong?

Talked to the gatekeeper.

The doorman then shouted, "Ah."

"You must be Eliane. I'm running out of time. Do you remember me?

"Yes, of course. Surely you took care of me when I first came to Lynch Giham."

"It's an honor to be remembered by Nigel's acquaintance..."

Well, I didn't ask for your name!

"You seem to be arguing more than that. Can you just tell me a story?

When I asked, the doorman sounded like he was in trouble.

"Yes... it looks like this guy really wants to go into Lynch Guiham. Originally, people coming from outside have to pay 50,000 bells as an entry/exit permit or entry fee. And yet, this guy doesn't seem to have either... such a suspicious person, but I can't let him in."

The gatekeeper has a good story. The bad news seemed to be the man trying to get into the city.

"Excuse me, but you...."

This was the first time I looked at a man's face properly.

Light black skin.

His face seemed full of confidence, and he looked magnificent.

You're quite a beautiful man.

After all, I don't think I'll forget this guy once I see him... but I think it's the first time I've seen him. Probably.

But...

"Oh, it's been a while. Eliane"

The man talked to me casually, as if I were a friend of his old knowledge.

"Who is it?

"I am me. I'm lonely to forget about myself."
