When the sun is out, the cold eases up a bit.

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

I take advantage of this time and head for Rose's store.

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

"Welcome."

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

Oh?　Do you still need something?"

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

Mr. Rose looks at us curiously as we visit him every day.

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

I answer with a wry smile.

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

I have an item that I really want.

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

Do you have any items that I can use to check the level of the magic stone?"

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

Mr. Rose's eyes widen in surprise.

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

The level of the magic stone?　You could easily go to the guild and have them look it up for you."

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

That's right, but still no good?

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

I'd like to do a little personal research. Do you have any?"

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

Mr. Rose's eyebrows rose a bit as the druid chuckled and explained.

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

Is this suspicious?

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

...... not crime-related, is it?"

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

Of course."

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

I look alternately at Mr. Rose and Mr. Druid.

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

They are both facing each other seriously.

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

There is an odd tension in the air, and my heart is pounding loudly.

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

'Huh~, well, that's okay.'

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

Thank you very much. So, is there?"

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

There are things. But I can't get into the details like your appraisal skills can, and there's a problem."

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

Problem?

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

Can I see it?

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

Oh, just a minute.

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

The druid sighs as Mr. Rose walks off to a back room.

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

'I'm so nervous~'

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

Thanks for your help."

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

By the way, there is a magic item that reads the function of an item, but can't you see the level of the magic stone with that?

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

Um, can't you see the level of the magic stone with this?"

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

He picks up a nearby magic item that reads functions.

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

It doesn't work to check the level of the magic stone," he said. And even if it could, we can't buy them ourselves.

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

Can't buy?"

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

Only those who have taken the test and qualified for the magic item and have a store that sells the item are allowed to possess it.

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

The exam?　Qualifications?"

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

Some items can be dangerous depending on how they are handled. So knowledge is necessary, and that knowledge can be skewed if not managed properly, right?"

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

That's why there is a test to make sure that everyone has a certain level of knowledge. If you fail five times, you will not be certified for the rest of your life.

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

It's a very tough world.

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

Come to think of it, the moment I heard the word "exam," I felt a terrific sense of rejection.

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

I understand that exams are tough, but I don't know what they are really like.

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

Perhaps, it brought back the feeling I had before.

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

I was a bit surprised because I have been quiet lately.

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

I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Here it is."

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

Mr. Rose returns with a black board in his hand.

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

When you place the magic stone on it, it should display the level of the stone. I think.

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

Rose is always confident, but her description of this item is a little different than usual.

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

As I looked at the black board in wonder, Rose-san placed one of the magic stones on the black board.

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

I wait for the level to be displayed, but there is no change.

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

Oh, no."

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

Eh?"

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

When I looked at Mr. Rose's words, I saw deep wrinkles between his eyebrows.

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

What do you mean?"

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

'You'll see. These appraise-skill items are really tricky."

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

You mean fragile?"

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

No, this is not broken. It's just not responding."

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

Unresponsive when not broken?

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

Um, wouldn't you say that's broken?

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

'This item is moody, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The cause is unknown. I'm trying to figure things out, but I have no idea."

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

Mr. Rose replaces the magic stone on the black board with another magic stone.

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

But there is no response.

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

He has checked several times using different magic stones, but there is no response.

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

I still think it is broken.

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

'If it's this unresponsive, they're going to think it's broken.

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

My gaze wandered a bit.

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

'Then again, you're really unresponsive again today~.

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

Mr. Rose sighed loudly.

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

'Anyway, here's an item to check the level of the magic stone. It represents an item that I wouldn't recommend."

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

I exchange glances with the druid.

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

Surely this is useless.

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

I don't know how long it will take me to finish checking everything.

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

I'm not even sure if ...... really works.

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

'You're right, Rose,' said Druid. This is a bit.

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

I agree. Impossible."

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

I'm sorry, Mr. Rose. I'm sorry you had to go through the trouble of getting me out.

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

When I apologize, he smiles and pats my head a little harder.

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

Don't worry about it," he said. Why did you want this?　Are you banned from the guild?"

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

No, that's not it."

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

If that were the case, it wouldn't be a problem. The guild is the best place to find out the level of the magic stone.

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

I certainly know that.

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

But there is a problem ...... with the magic stone to be examined.

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

Hmmm...I don't know what to do.

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

Ivy.

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

When I looked at Mr. Druid, his expression was grim, as if he was seriously considering something.

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

The expression on his face makes me feel a little better.

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

'Why don't you talk to Mr. Rose about it?　He seems to have a broad face, and besides, he trusts us."

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

Come to think of it, he believed me even though I didn't give him any details earlier.

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

I looked at Mr. Rose and shrugged.

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

Then he repeatedly put the magic stone lying around the black board on the board and took it down.

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

Apparently, Mr. Rose has not given up yet.

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

'Yes, I see. Besides, I reacted to what Mr. Druid just said. Can I speak, everyone?"

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

The bag on my shoulder transmitted vibrations.

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

I laugh at it.

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

The vibrations are louder than usual.

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

Rose, who was listening to our conversation, tilts her head.

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

I guess it's no surprise that people around me don't know what it means.

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

'Well, I have a bit of a secret to tell you.

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

I'd like you to listen to that and then decide if you're willing to cooperate."

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

Mr. Rose laughed and nodded when he saw the druid's and my faces.

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

'Hold on a minute, I'm closing up store.

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

What? Are you sure?"

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

'You don't want anyone to hear you, do you?　Besides, I wouldn't want to be interrupted in the middle of a conversation."

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

Um, is it good?

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

I looked at Mr. Druid and smiled, 'We can't stop him, can we?

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

We certainly can't.

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

Because the look on her face as she's closing up store looks like she's having an enormous amount of fun.

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

'All right!　Now we just need to block out the sound."

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

As expected of a person who is familiar with the items, they were ready in no time.

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

So, what can I do to help?"

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

Can I make a decision after I hear what you have to say?"

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

I like to have fun."

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

Is that the way it should be?

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

Won't they get into trouble for something?

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

Ivy, you don't have to look so worried. I've seen a lot of people. I'm a good judge of character.

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

Mr. Rose recommends that I sit in a chair alongside the druid.

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

She is sitting in front of me, but on the desk is a black board and a magic stone.

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

It seems she hasn't given up yet.

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

Ah, there it is!

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

Eh!"

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

When the black board glowed faintly, Rose-san looked happy.

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

After a while, the black board showed "Magic Enhancement?　Red magic stone level 7-8" was displayed.

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

Was it not broken?

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

Still, what a subtle explanation.

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

''It still boils down to the same explanation, doesn't it?

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

I laugh at Rose's words.

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

He certainly didn't explain it as an enhancement of fire magic, and level 7-8 is very rough.

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

I heard that the amount of magic power accumulated in a magic stone differs considerably just by one different level.

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

This is a bit of a stretch."

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

The druid also shook his head at the explanation displayed.

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

'Let me tell you, this item is still on the higher level. The items below this one are much rougher.

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

Items are so deep.

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

In many ways.
