Walking slowly down the main street, I take a look around.

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

There are many people, perhaps because it is lunchtime.

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

I listen to the rumors, but there is nothing new, mostly about the survey team.

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

What about lunch?　It would take a long time to cook back at the plaza, wouldn't it?"

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

What shall we do?　Come to think of it, what are the stalls in this village famous for?"

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

At first I thought it was melmets, which are raised in this village, but I heard they are unpopular because of their unique smell and tough meat.

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

The smell can be improved by boiling it down with herbs, and the toughness can be softened by marinating it in a sauce made from the fruit papasi.

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

It's a waste of time when a little goes a long way to make it tastier.

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

But thanks to its unpopularity, it is cheap.

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

I'm considering buying some in bulk because of the price.

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

And I made a pickling sauce the other day that uses papasi fruit.

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

It was better than I thought it would be, so I want to try it again.

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

I'd like to try to make the taste a little more creative.

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

Seems like the wrapped and baked lappo is very popular."

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

Looking at the surrounding stalls, signs for lappo wrapped and baked were indeed conspicuous.

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

Lappo are demons that inhabit the area around this village and are similar to wild rabbits.

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

What makes them different from hares is their size and the fact that they have horns on their foreheads.

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

I heard that they are a little more ferocious than wild rabbits.

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

I guess so. I wonder if this slightly fresh smell is the smell of the wrapping roast.

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

As I walked down the main street, I noticed a scent that caught my attention.

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

There was a fresh smell mingled with the savory smell of meat.

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

I was looking for the source of the smell, but it seemed to be the wrapping roast.

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

"Perhaps it's the leaves used in the wrapping roast?"

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

I peeked into a nearby wrapping-roast stall.

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

The owner was pouring sauce over meat and vegetables and wrapping them in a large leaf.

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

As he placed them on the grill and began to grill them, a fresh smell spread out.

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

It smells so good.

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

Then, how about a wrapped roast for lunch?

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

Is that okay?

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

I'm curious too. I mean, don't you think I'll lose my patience when I smell it?

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

It sure is very appetizing.

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

I moved away from the stall I was peeking at and looked to see which one was better.

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

The leaves seem to be the same," he said. The difference is the vegetables and seasoning?

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

I guess so. Let's decide on the vegetables.

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

I guess so."

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

After walking around for a while, we found a stall that served kabob, a vegetable they both liked, as an accompaniment.

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

The customers were mostly from the village, and it looked promising, so they decided to line up at the end of the line.

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

I heard that Guilmas and the leader were fighting again.

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

Again?　What in the world is going on?

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

It's true, isn't it?

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

I overheard the conversation of the villagers in line in front of me.

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

Speaking of which, Guilmouth and the leader of this village don't get along well with each other, do they?

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

Is this a well-known story among the villagers?

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

There's also the issue of the forest, I wonder if it's alright?

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

Two wrappers, please."

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

Thank you very much. Please wait a moment.

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

At the stall, a woman and a man, both about 40 years old, are busily moving about.

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

The man was baking the wrapping pancakes in front of the fire, while the woman was making the pancakes and selling the pancakes.

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

The woman brought two baked wrappers in a basket to the counter in front of me.

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

Please take two for 100 dollars.

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

I paid and received my items.

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

The aroma of meat and freshness wafted through the air.

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

Thank you. It looks delicious.

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

It smells really good. I want to eat it while it's still hot, so let's hurry back to the plaza.

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

I'll do that. I'm sure Sola and the others would like to go outside too.

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

After returning to the plaza and entering the tent, he took Sola and the others out of their bags.

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

They jumped around in the tent and stretched out.

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

As expected, the bags were different from the usual ones, so they were uncomfortable to sleep in.

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

There were two bags for Sola and her friends, but one of them was completely torn in the forest and became garbage.

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

The bag that had been used until yesterday had been sewn up where it had been torn, but it finally became unusable yesterday.

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

There were three bags that I used temporarily.

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

None of them were comfortable, and none of them wanted to go into the bag.

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

After lunch, let's go look at the bags."

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

What?"

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

The bags for Sora and the others. We need them, don't we?

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

Yes, I think so. Yes, let's look for a bag that's comfortable for them to sleep in.

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

The four dogs swayed happily as their father and I talked.

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

I guess they are not very comfortable.

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

We leave the tent to eat lunch for the time being.

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

"Oh, laundry.

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

I forgot."

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

I looked at the desk in front of the tent and saw the laundry.

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

I had completely forgotten about it.

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

I had completely forgotten about it. I'll make you a cup of tea, and I'll hang it up while you're gone.

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

There's a place nearby where I can hang the laundry, and it won't take long.

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

Do you need help?"

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

No, I'm fine. I want to eat as soon as we're done.

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

I'm hungry.

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

"Ha-ha-ha. I'm hungry.

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

When I hurriedly returned to the tent to dry the laundry, I found a plate of roasted vegetables, salad, and tea on the desk, ready for me to eat.

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

As expected of a father.

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

Itadakimasu" ("Bon appétit!").

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

The rappo wraps were made with firm meat and vegetables that had absorbed the flavor of the meat.

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

The slightly spicy sauce was delicious.

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

I can't wait to try it again.

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

When the problems in the forest are settled, let's try hunting for lappo.

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

I'd like to try this meat on skewers.

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

I've already made a trap with that in mind. I've already made some tricks with that in mind.

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

Lappo around the village of Hataka.

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

Your father told me it was delicious, so I've come to this village with the intention of hunting it.

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

I can't wait to solve the problem.

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

I cleaned up the mess and asked him if he would follow Sora, but this time he said he would not.

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

I activate the magic item that hides my appearance and firmly stop and lock the entrance.

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

Well, let's go see the bags for now.

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

I asked him if I could buy three of the special bags.　I want to have a spare in case of a tear.

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

Three bags should be enough in case something happens.

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

While talking with his father about bag sizes and materials, we searched for a bag shop.

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

We checked the signs of the stores lining the main street one by one.

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

"Is that it?"

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

We looked in the direction he pointed and saw a sign with a bag on it at the end of a side street.

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

It looks like it," he said. Let's go.

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

"Oh."

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

We crossed the main street and approached the store.

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

We pass next to the two store keepers.

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

'Are you saying that again?　There are no ghosts.

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

Ghosts?

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

I thought I heard a strange word, so I quietly peeked at them.

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

I looked at them quietly, and their walking speed slowed down.

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

We saw it three days ago!　I saw a ghost carrying a dead body into the woods!

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

He's saying it again.

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

Because it's true!　I thought I saw it wrong the first time, but I saw it again.

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

The first time I saw it was two months ago, right?　And it was the middle of the night, right?

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

You made such a fuss about what you saw that day that I went to the neighborhood watch to see if anyone had died the day before. You asked me if anyone had died the day before.

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

Yeah, I know. I was there with you.

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

No, I didn't see anyone. And there was no one missing, right?

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

I know. But I saw a ghost carrying something like a dead body out of the village!　That's for sure!

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

I know, I know. I get it. You don't know if it's really a corpse, do you?

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

I don't know that for sure, but I'm sure it was on the cart that was carrying the corpse!　It looked like a black ghost that was carrying it. ...... It's true!

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

I wonder.

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

Something is bothering me.

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

A ghost?

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

No, it's not.

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

I looked to the side in surprise at the sound of my father's voice.

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

He had stopped before I knew what was going on, and I had worried him.

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

It's nothing.

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

I'll take my time and figure out what's bothering me later.

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

After a short walk, I arrived at a bag shop, named "Tehri.

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

I wondered if it would be okay.

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

Inside the store, bags are neatly arranged and neatly lined up.

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

All of the bags were a bit expensive, and the prices were reasonable.

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

I might have picked the wrong store.

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

Can I help you?"

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

The first woman who greeted me smiled kindly and said, "We don't have any bags for tamers.

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

Do you have any bags for the tamers?"

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

The father replies, and she immediately leads him to where the bags are located.

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

There, bags with cute patterns and slightly cool patterns were lined up.

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

Unlike the bags I had before, these bags were very intricate.

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

They are amazing," he said. They are so cute.

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

I looked at the price tag, thinking that the price must be expensive.

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

What?

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

It was cheaper than the magic bag.

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

The special bag used by tamers is a bag made of magic item threads.

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

The inside of the bag is a little wider than it looks to accommodate small monsters and animals, and it is made to be comfortable to sleep in.

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

They are reasonably priced, so why don't we pick one up?"

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

Are you sure?

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

Of course. It's an important family place.

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

Thank you.

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

Well, if you're thinking about comfort, you have to look carefully at the cushioning.

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

Also, the size is important.

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

It's going to be summer, so the more air that can pass through, the better.
