With gloved hands, he holds a basket with a handle.

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

Inside the basket is a banana leaf and three rice balls to take to Mr. Arui.

In the magic bag on his shoulder is a magic stone revived by Flem.

Today is the third day since I met Mr. Priagirmas at the plaza.

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

That day, I had planned to go to "Char" to pick up the gloves and return to the inn right away, but as usual, Mr. Druid and the store manager, Baruka, got so excited that it was past evening when I returned to the inn.

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

We gave up that day and changed the plan to deliver onigiri to Mr. Arui the next day.

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

However, it rained for the next two days.

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

It showed no sign of stopping and the cold was so bad that I hesitated to leave the inn, so I decided to wait for it to calm down.

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

Finally, on the morning of the third day, the rain stopped.

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

It's cold, isn't it?

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

Yes, I dread to think how much colder it will get this year."

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

Thank you for the gloves, Mr. Druid.

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

True, without gloves, this cold would be dangerous.

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

I would freeze from the tips of my fingers.

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

I guess if people are that happy, I'll want to give them something different.

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

Negative!

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

You don't have to answer immediately ......"

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

The gloves had, to my surprise, slime embroidered next to the flower embroidery.

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

The moment I saw this, I was so happy that I hugged the druid and thanked him.

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

I was surprised that he had asked me to embroider a slime.

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

Mr. Baruka had a complicated expression on his face when he saw me pleased with the embroidery of the demon.

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

'No? Or maybe I could ask him to embroider a whole hem of my coat with solas.

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

It would be cute, but embroidery is also expensive, so I rejected the idea.

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

Gloves are the only thing that fits my height.

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

Besides, from Baruka's demeanor, embroidery of demons would stand out.

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

I was surprised when I came out to the main street.

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

Not even a food stall.

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

It's possible that Arui's store is closed too."

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

Didn't think about that.

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

Well, if it's closed, it's closed, and we'll give up.

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

If we cut through the main street, we will soon see Arui's store.

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

I was a little anxious, but when I looked around, I saw a sign and a light.

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

Thank God, it seemed to be open.

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

It was open, wasn't it?

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

I'm sorry," he said. But still, there are a lot of customers.

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

Ahead of my gaze, I saw the restaurant with customers coming and going incessantly.

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

Was it a popular restaurant?

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

As I approach the store, I hear laughter coming from inside.

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

Toluca, not this one, that one. No, not that one, that side!　Yes, that one!"

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

Mixed in with the customers' voices were laughter, and perhaps Mr. Arui's, "Big brother, get a hold of yourself!" I can hear the voice saying, "I'm sorry, I can't help it.

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

It seems that he is really a naughty boy.

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

I peek into the store and see Toluca asking customers for directions and pointing out the wrong products.

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

Arui's butcher shop also seems to be quite busy, as if there are many customers.

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

I must have come at the wrong time.

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

Looking at the state of the store during the past few days, I did not expect so many customers.

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

Should I come back at a different time for this one?

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

Huh?"　Oh, you there!"

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

As I turned on my heel to change the time and leave again, Arui's voice echoed through the restaurant.

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

Surprised by this, I turn to look at her and our gazes meet.

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

I knew it!　I knew it!　I wanted to talk to you. My fellow 'kome' friends!"

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

The curious gazes of the surrounding customers.

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

Definitely the wrong time to come!

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

Even Mr. Druid's face is drawn.

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

He doesn't like to be the center of attention either.

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

Toluca, the sauce is different again.

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

No way!"　Ahhh, why is it that all sauce containers are the same!"

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

Toluca's voice filled the entire restaurant with laughter.

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

It seems that the owner and the customers are good friends in this restaurant.

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

Hey, are you leaving?　Let's talk about "rice.

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

No, I have to work.

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

What was that?　He said, "Um, they're going to feed me. Um, ......"

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

If it was onigiri, I brought it.

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

That's it!　You brought it, thank you!"

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

I'll leave it here for you since you seem busy."

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

What?　Let's talk."

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

No, I don't want to be in a place that attracts this kind of attention.

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

Besides, I'm cutting meat at a slower rate, and my customers look annoyed.

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

'No, I'll come back later. I want to talk with you slowly."

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

I see, I don't have a choice. ''There were a lot of customers today, especially since the other restaurants were closed.''

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

Oh, that's why there are so many customers here.

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

Arui, most of the people here are regulars.

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

A customer in line to buy meat calls out to him.

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

The customers around him chuckle at this.

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

What's that?　Hahahaha."

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

Not only Mr. Toluca, but also Mr. Arui, are you a naughty boy?

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

What time would you like to talk?

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

Mr. Arui tilts his head with a knife.

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

'Miss, it would be fine if it was around dusk.

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

Perhaps not seeing this, a customer in line told me.

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

I thank him for that and call out to Mr. Arui.

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

I'll be around then.

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

Sorry, thanks!"

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

I leave the store with the cheerful voice behind me.

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

I knew you two were interesting siblings.

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

Yes, I suppose so."

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

We were to go to Rose's store earlier than planned.

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

Would Rose's store be open?

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

Ah, looks like things have taken a turn for the better.

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

As I was heading to Mr. Rose's store, I heard the druid's happy voice.

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

I look at him and he is smiling at something.

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

His gaze was met by three men dressed in vigilante clothing.

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

'Oh, they're laughing.'

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

They are laughing and talking something with the villagers.

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

The last time I saw the vigilantes, they seemed to be in a corner.

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

That is gone.

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

Perhaps thanks to the vigilante's handling of the situation, the tense atmosphere that has been present among the villagers in recent days has calmed down.

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

It's a good feeling."

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

I'm not sure. Good, but it's kind of sudden, isn't it?"

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

Really?"　Commander Toubroe was recommended to me as having the right qualities. Besides, he must have followed the former Commander around for a few years to study. If there's a chance, he'll settle down where he's settled down.

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

That's the way it is.

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

But the people in the village seem to be having a good time.

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

That's good.

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

Shall we go?

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

Yes," he said. By the way, the main street is so wide without a single food stall.

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

The main street without the food stalls gives the impression of being twice as wide as usual.

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

Somehow that is lonely.

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

It is indeed cold.

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

Indeed, the rain over the past few days has made it even colder.

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

I really can't wait to get out there.

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

Oh, I don't see your sign."

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

As Rose's store comes into view, I notice that the sign that is always there is not outside.

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

Apparently, the store is not open today.

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

Hello."

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

I call out from the outside toward the inside on the possibility that they are inside.

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

I wait for a while, but there is no sound.

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

No one seems to be home.

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

Too bad," he said. We'll have to call it a day."

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

As I turn on my heel, I hear the door rattle open.

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

I looked behind me in a hurry and saw Mr. Rose there with a big smile on his face.

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

I knew it was Ivy's voice. Come in, come in.

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

There was no sign of Mr. Rose now.

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

You're not an adventurer, are you?

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

Um...

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

Mr. Rose, are you a former adventurer?"

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

Mr. Druid shouldn't be able to sense any sign of you, but did you notice anything?

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

Hmm?"　Did you f*ck up the sign by any chance?"

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

It seems that they were still putting out the signs.

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

Was he such a great adventurer that he couldn't feel it at this distance?

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

No, I couldn't feel the presence, because all I heard was the door opening."

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

I'm afraid of ...... unconsciousness! I'm usually fine."

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

Rose sighs a bit.

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

'I have shadow skills, you know. It's a totally useless skill."

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

Shadow skills?

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

I looked at Mr. Druid and he shook his head too.

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

I guess it's a little-known skill.

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

'I can muffle my presence and move around without making a sound, but those are skills I don't need. Oh, I'm not an adventurer. I'm all about magic items."

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

That's a great skill.

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

But surely it would be unnecessary if I didn't use it.

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

Still, it's amazing that they don't let you sense their presence at all.

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

There is a possibility that they could come near me without my knowledge. ...... Isn't this a very dangerous skill for me, who detects people by their presence?

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

Because there is a possibility that they will find out about Sola and the others.
