The woman is Rose, and she is the owner of the store.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was surprised because I had only seen male store owners of these items before.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She said, "Yes. Yes, every time. It's been well maintained, so as long as you don't use it recklessly, it should last you a long time."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I receive a magic box and a functioning magic bag from the owner.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm looking forward to using it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid went looking for the items as soon as he paid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He doesn't have anything in particular that he wants, but he is happily looking around at various items.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you very much," he said. I'll take good care of it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hahaha, that's a good spirit. Yes, let me introduce you to some interesting bags.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The owner brought this magic bag from the back room.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It is smaller and has less capacity than the one I have now, but it is said to double the speed of time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Time speeds up?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ah."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I know about stopping time, but this is the first time I've heard of speeding up time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, but what is it used for?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What, you don't know?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If you put stuff in this bag, it will break and rot in no time. I can't think of any use for it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Funny you should mention the bag you recommended earlier: ......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, I was introduced to it because they said it was an interesting bag.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But still, it's a bag that is fragile and prone to decay, a bag with no good qualities at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And this is the next one. It's also known as the 'scary bag.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Scary bag?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Funny name.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The owner puts his hand in the bag and turns on the switch that activates the function.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It seems that all the functions on the magic bag are operated by a switch inside the handle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Here.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hup."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When the owner pulls his arm out of the bag, his arm is torn and bleeding.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What the hell are you doing!　Quick, doctor."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid, who was ransacking the shelves for items, heard my screams and rushed over to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He then saw the shopkeeper's injuries and tried to take a cloth out of his bag.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, "Calm down, it's all right. You just look hurt."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The shopkeeper raises his voice with a laugh.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

According to the story, it is not actually cut, but only appears that way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was told that since it was not cut, it would not hurt at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

After a while, the arm that had been invisible appeared and the area that looked like blood disappeared cleanly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It is really back to the same state as if nothing had happened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's of no use, but isn't it interesting?　Enough to surprise people, right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What's the point of surprising people?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I sighed with Mr. Druid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The owner of the store laughed hysterically at that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's quite different from my first impression.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Where did that cold impression go?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But then again, are there many functional magic bags that have no use?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's rare to see Rose looking so happy."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I heard a voice that sounded somewhat very calm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I looked for the source of the voice, I found a man coming out of the back of the store who looked very mild-mannered.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, "Really?　Even I have a fun thing or two every day."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'But it's rare for me to laugh that hard.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well, it's been a long time since I've had an interesting customer! I'm digging a bargain."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

By bargains, do you mean us, by any chance?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder, does this mean they like me?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But am I supposed to be happy about an interesting guest?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's really unusual," he said. I don't recognize you. Are you a traveler?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, I am a traveler. I will be staying in this village for the winter.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see. I am Rose's husband and my name is Delors. Nice to meet you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Was he your husband?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What a very relaxing atmosphere he has.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Excuse me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'd like to buy this.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A customer in the store can be heard calling out to the owner.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Apparently, they want to purchase something.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He says, "What a hassle! Why don't you just leave the money and go away?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The owner sighed loudly and turned to deal with the customer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Her husband, Mr. DeRose, is laughing at her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What a strange pair.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I looked at the owner, he was pointing at the shelves and talking about something.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It seems he is telling her where the products are.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come to think of it, both of the items we purchased were in the back of the store.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is there any difference?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The owner said the items on the shelves were only moderately priced.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I take an item from a nearby shelf.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think they are well made.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'The items on the shelves in this store are not so bad for Rose, so it's about as good as I can sell them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Delors told me that it was probably because I was tilting my head at the items.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I mean, is it really that bad of an item?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

From my point of view, every item on the shelves is a solid product that has been well maintained.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Even Mr. Druid looks at the items curiously as he picks them up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'The items that Rose really thought would be nice are not on the shelves. They're all in the back room."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The two items I purchased were brought from the back of the store, which means they were items that met the store owner's eye.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm kind of glad.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's a pain in the ass. You can do that yourself!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Suddenly, the shopkeeper's yell echoes through the store.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I look and see that an adventurer is getting angry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What's wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What's wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The druid stands to cover for me as the owner yells at me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Rose is cold to everyone but her favorites! She changes her attitude to different people, and that's a problem."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

said Delors, who warmly gazes at Rose, who is paying the bill in the back of the store.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Watching the two of them makes my back feel kind of mushy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'The owner of the store must have quite a discerning eye. From my point of view, the items on the shelves are pretty good stuff."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid says, looking at the items on the shelves.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Rose has connoisseurship skills."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Connoisseurship skills?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I didn't know such skills existed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can't do this at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Rose, you can't keep hitting on customers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I know. I know.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I could see the owner's anger quickly dissipate as he talked with Mr. Delors.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They're so close.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy, we should get back to it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When are you going to register for the box?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can do it tomorrow. I have plans to go to the clothing store. Oh, and can either guild register for the box?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can do it for both adventurers and merchants without any problem. Are you going to register?　It's recommended, but not many people sign up for it because it's too much trouble, right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's unpopular, but you never know what might happen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Indeed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

How is the winter in this village?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

This winter has been very unpredictable.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder if that's the reason. I feel like there are more criminals than usual. It's very unfortunate."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Delors looks troubled.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I was talking with Mr. Druid, it seems that the number of people committing crimes is increasing after all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's stupid, isn't it, that at this time of the year the neighborhood watch is stepped up, so it's almost impossible to catch them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Rose looks disappointed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The neighborhood watch in this village must be very good.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A few weeks ago, there was a big fuss over a number of people helping a group of criminals, but, well, they're good at what they do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is that criminal group the organization in the case I was involved with?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's a really broad area of damage.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'It's not all there, is it?　Now, people say the Commander is really good, don't they?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ha, wasn't it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. DeRose seems to think quite highly of the neighborhood watch leader.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Rose is not criticizing, not disagreeing, but ...... embarrassed?　He looks like he is in a state of shock.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Like a little red in the cheeks, too?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He's our son.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is that so?　That's great."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmm."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is that why the shopkeeper can see your embarrassment?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, Mr. Delors' eyes have become extremely kind and he is looking at the shopkeeper.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

......, I'm embarrassed to be looking at you!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's kind of embarrassing seeing the two of you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid seems embarrassed to see the two of them and looks awkward.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He looks embarrassed. It's kind of embarrassing."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I looked at Ms. Rose, her shy face tightened up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I stared at her in wonder, I noticed that she gave a small sigh.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But what about now?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Rose."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. DeRose's expression shades a little.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What is it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I watched the two of them, Mr. Rose chuckled.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'You can only tell if someone is really good when they have a problem, you know?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The air is indescribable.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Perhaps a big problem is being brought up?
