Day 23 of the month of fire. I was taking a relaxing stroll through the bustling city of Wangdu in the afternoon.

Me and Ms. Nan Teakwood also learned magic during the initial period, so that we could walk without escort only in Wang Chengchi.

For some reason Lilia came desperate to put an escort on me only, but eventually broke me... why was she so stubborn, still less reassuring as Lilia of worries because I'm inferior to Nan and Teakwood in terms of fighting power?

Sure, I don't have any fighting power in my magic, but my sensing performance is unusually high, so I think it's safe in a way, as soon as my malicious or hostile opponent comes close to me.

In terms of postcombat power, Clo seems to have some idea, so he can teach me some battle-oriented magic to protect himself from tonight.

I don't know what magic it teaches me, but I'm glad to say that I get the means to protect myself, and I'm a little excited to be honest.

As I walked thinking about it, one store stopped to my attention.

A store somewhat off the boulevard that says' grocery store '... so to speak, I'm moving to the Elf Forest to attend the Treasure Tree Festival soon, but maybe I should get ready for something too.

I would rather harvest than hunt, but I might as well have one of the knives if I were to pick fruit in the woods.

"Hello"

When I opened the door made of wood and entered the store, the store was wider than I had seen from the outside, and a number of shelves lined up in a narrow place.

I look around lightly but I didn't see the store owner, so I try to speak up... but I don't have a reaction.

"Is that it? I'm sorry!

Again, this time I tried to speak up a little louder, but I still don't get a response back. I think it's open that the door wasn't locked...

Then at that time, I hear a slight voice from the back of the store, tilting my neck towards the one who speaks.

"... I don't know how to live with all this money..."

"... Huh?

Behind the store, in a counter-like place, there was an incredible sight a little soon.

"I set up a shop in Wangdu in the corner, but I can't imagine a customer at all..."

At the counter, the shopkeeper-like 'object' is counting coins whining with bumps. It's not a strange sight in itself, but the problem was the shopkeeper's appearance.

The fuzzy, elastic appearance of yellowish tea - hands and feet made of cloth. Associate a deformed cat...... no, I can't. There are no words that can successfully explain this unusual sight.

In short, the cat's wearing object is counting coins whimpering with bumps.

Why are you wearing this guy indoors? Are you stupid?

"Ah, there's no good story about making money without working... If you open a store, you don't have to move, and a customer comes, it's a hassle to buy or sell at all."

The sight of a freak in a cat's dress counting coins while talking silly was terribly surreal and I deeply regretted honestly entering the store.

Seems like a young woman because of the feeling of her voice, but what she says already ruins everything.

"If even a rich, good-looking customer comes, I'll sell him a lot of things."

……

Yeah. It's obviously Abunai...... let's just go home before they notice.

"Really, there's a good duck somewhere - yeah?

"Huh!?

……

……

Shit. They noticed. Perfect eyes now? There was.

A very awkward silence flowed between me and the shopkeeper, and I looked back a little bit, walking towards the door...

"Welcome!!

I got turned around.

Ha, ha! He circled in front of me in an instant, and he called out to me with the door on his back.

I accidentally lag behind the way it feels like I obviously said I wouldn't miss it... No, seriously, I went into a weird store.

"What are you looking for? No - customers are lucky too. I just bought a lot of stuff!

"... yes, no, uh..."

You said you bought a lot or it obviously doesn't feel like customers are coming and selling a lot!?

Shit, they totally targeted me. Jirijiri and I are approaching this way wearing guru as we grip hands together... I have a fear like a Grade B horror.

"Hey, I just stopped by to see if I wanted to buy something else..."

"No, no, now's your chance. Uh, look... we're just in the middle of a discount!

Obviously, it was like you just came up with it! You totally took it and put it on!?

But they can even be business professionals, and I honestly don't have the talking skills to get out of this situation.

Thinking this has already been bitten by a wild dog, do I have to shop for some and go home?

"... by the way, how about a budget?

"... uh... oh, about 5000R...?

Actually, I have over 40000R, but I'm not stupid enough to be honest with the boulders about it either.

I said, "I'm not flashy right now, but I'm wearing quality clothes that aren't ridiculous even if they are worn by nobles, and even if I said too low an amount, I decided to say about 500,000 yen because it was going to be a lot of trouble."

Even if I was forced to buy this to budget criticality, I would give up if I thought I was hooked on bad sales.

"… 5000R…"

The colour of the store owner's eyes changed. I can't see because I'm wearing it, but it feels like the atmosphere has changed.

Specifically, it feels like I found a good duck...

So, come on... what do you say? Either you put a threat in it and try to force me to buy it, or you give me a ride with your polished business negotiation skills... Either way, they're pros, and I don't seem to have a way to escape.

In front of me taking a breath, the shopkeeper slowly put his right knee on the ground, followed by his left knee and finally his hands on the ground.

"... buy me something"

……

Underground. It is just underground. A dungeon without too sophisticated precipitation that threw away any shame or pride as a merchant or anything that said so.

"Please. I haven't eaten a lot of food in the last few days."

……

And it is this weeping down, as it flows from the dust seat.

I lose my word in front of a dressed woman sitting in the ground in front of me

Dear Mother, Father - I don't know what to say, it's something that has circled with weirdness again. That's why - I ran into a strange shopkeeper.
