When I tried to choose the dark blue one from the three available, which seemed less likely to show dirt, Mr. Druid recommended the white gloves.

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

He said, "The dark blue ones don't show dirt as much."

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

If it doesn't come off, you can buy another one. From what I've heard, you need to replace them every year or two.

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

What, that short?

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

They say that after two years of use, the fur on the inside gets so shaggy that it doesn't stay warm anymore."

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

I look inside the gloves.

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

There is definitely some kind of fur being used.

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

"If it was ......," he said.

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

This white one's the one.

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

No, I was going to refuse if it would be that easy to make it unusable.

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

I looked at Mr. Druid and saw that he had already given the white gloves to Mr. Baruka.

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

'Mr. Druid.

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

'Sorry Ivy, can you try it on your hand for a second?

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

What?　Uh, yes.

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

I take the gloves and put them on my hands.

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

They seem to be too big, as they have a little extra room in the fingers.

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

"Excuse me, the tips of your fingers have a little extra room."

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

Do you have anything a little smaller?"

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

No, it can be easily fixed. Please keep your hand out in front of you while I measure the length of your fingers.

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

Mr. Baruca removes his gloves and measures the length of my fingers with a ruler.

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

Apparently, he has already decided to buy them, so I can't interrupt him.

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

I glance at Mr. Druid, who is looking at us happily.

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

Can I spoil him?

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

Yes, we're done."

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

Thank you for ......."

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

Let's spoil him.

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

How soon can you fix it?"

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

I can have it to you tomorrow.

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

Oh, good.

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

I put on gloves to see the size, but it was very warm.

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

I feel sorry for them, but more than that, I am looking forward to it.

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

Druid and Baruca start talking about men's clothing, so I look around the store a bit.

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

The products in the store have changed a lot since the last time I was here.

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

Maybe this store is very popular.

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

No," she said. We have to do something about it ourselves."

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

The voices of other customers reach my ears.

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

The voice has a somewhat stilted atmosphere.

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

I try to move on quickly, not wanting to eavesdrop.

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

I'm sure you feel the same way.　Yes, you have to protect your own life."

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

What? Did you say life?

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

The content stops me in my tracks.

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

But how am I supposed to collect magic stones now?"

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

By collecting magic stones, do you mean this winter?

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

I mean, if it's magic stones, why are the vigilantes and both guilds working so hard to collect them now?

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

I looked at the people who were conversing and saw two women.

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

Both women have serious expressions on their faces.

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

They really seem to think that they need to collect the magic stones themselves.

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

Do they not believe in vigilantes and guilds?

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

Suddenly, the words of Ms. Rose and Mr. Druid from earlier come to mind.

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

They both said that this village is in a 'dangerous situation'.

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

Could they possibly be referring to the fact that the people of the village no longer believe in the vigilantes and the guild?

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

But why don't you believe me?

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

In the past, in villages and towns, all the people living there believed in vigilantes and guilds.

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

They would always protect them, and they were all people who were doing their best to protect the places where they lived.

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

Some of them were exceptions, but they were few and far between.

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

I think of Mr. Guilmouth, whom I met in All Town.

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

Mr. Gothos, the druid's best friend and probably his childhood friend.

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

He looked a little scary, but when I talked to him, he was very easy to talk to and I didn't feel any barriers.

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

Even though he was in such a situation, there were smiles around Mr. Gothos.

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

Well, as far as work goes, according to the druid, it's no good.

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

Still, many adventurers and townspeople believed in him.

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

That is why they were able to endure even when the demons ran amok and they were in a state of anxiety.

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

Endure?

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

Oh, I see.

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

I was able to endure because I was able to believe that 'Mr. Guilmouth and the Commander will definitely do something about it.

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

I only greeted the Commander of All Town when I was with Mr. Guilmouth.

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

So I don't even remember his name, but it was believed that if it was the leader and the three Guilmouths from both guilds, they would do something about it.

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

In this village, there is both the head of the group and Mr. Guilmouth.

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

Not sure what will happen to Mr. Guilmouth from the commercial guild, but but there are still two top guys.

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

But the people in the village are not at ease.

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

So they are trying to deal with it individually.

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

I guess it's impossible to say that the person who takes the top position is just someone who can do extraordinary things.

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

Uh, yes.

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

I was surprised because I was thinking.

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

'Are you all right?　What's wrong?"

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

Mr. Druid looked into my face with concern, as if he thought I was acting strangely.

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

This is not the place to talk about it.

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

I'm fine. Are you done talking?"

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

Oh, I asked him to do a little embroidery with blue thread."

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

Hmm?"　What are you talking about?"

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

I asked you to embroider on Ivy's gloves, okay?"

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

Weren't you talking about Mr. Druid's clothes?

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

Sheesh, I should have listened to them together.

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

Because I'm going to have some pretty flowers put in."

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

If you look that happy, ...... no, I'd be happy too.

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

Um, thank you."

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

You're welcome. Shall we go home now?"

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

Yes, I am. I have to go buy some food, too."

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

Oh, let's go."

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

I greet Baruca and leave the store.

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

I looked at the two female customers, still talking seriously.

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

'Do you think you can get all the ingredients at the store on your way home?'

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

I want the meat and the sauce from this village."

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

Would that work?"

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

We took the main street and headed for the inn.

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

As the cold weather gets worse and worse, the number of food stalls and the number of people walking around are decreasing.

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

I thought to myself, "Huh?　It's closed.

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

I came to a place where I could see the store I wanted to visit, but the lights were out.

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

I noticed that many of the stores were also closed.

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

About half of the stores on the main street are not open today.

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

What shall we do?　From here.

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

Mr. Druid and I check the stores that can be seen from the main street.

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

"Ah. There."

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

One street down, I saw a sign for a butcher shop and a food store.

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

I was glad to see it. It wasn't too far away."

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

Yeah.

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

We hurried a bit to get to the store.

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

As expected, the longer I stay outside, the colder my core gets.

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

When I entered the store, I was greeted by two voices.

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

'Huh?　Mr. Druid, this store is connected to the food store."

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

It's true."

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

From the outside, it looked like two stores in a row, but once inside, they were like one store with no walls.

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

Surprised by the unusual store construction, the two of us scurried around together.

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

"Welcome, is it so unusual?"

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

I looked in the direction of the voice and a woman greeted me hello.

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

'Hello, I'm surprised, I've never seen it made like this before.'

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

The food store is my brother's store, and the butcher shop over here is my sister's store.

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

Is it a store run by brother and sister?

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

Is it, uh, meat today?"

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

I want the meat and this village sauce.

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

We'll be fine together.

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

I understand. Do you have any meat recommendations?"

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

Mr. Druid and I look at the meat on the shelf.

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

The butcher store I saw before sold mainly "Horusu" and "Taion," but not in this store.

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

'This store only has meat from hunting, is that okay?'

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

I see.

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

I'll have to change my plans a bit.

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

I mean, I don't have a grasp of what kind of meat you can hunt around this village.

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

They served smoked meat at the inn, but I haven't confirmed which kind of meat it was.

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

Um, do you have any meats that are less fussy?"

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

I think these two are relatively less habitual. What kind of food do you plan to use them in?"

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

I plan to mix it with rice.

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

"...... 'rice'?　Um, "rice"!

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

That's a hell of a surprise.

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

Maybe there is still a rejection of rice here.

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

I guess that rules out Mr. Rose's reaction.

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

"Oh no, is it really rice?"

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

Still, it's a bizarre excitement, but is it okay?

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

Should I have said the right thing?

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

I like 'rice' too!　No one understands me and I've been so lonely!　Wow~ I found a buddy!"

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

What? It's rare.

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

I didn't expect to find a rice lover!
