Next is the armory. Where is the place?"

Leelia looks at her father as she puts on her rain gear.

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

It's right over there.

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

Hm?

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

They all looked in the direction that her father pointed.

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

What, over there?

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

What can I say, .......

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

Isn't it closed?"

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

Ah, Mr. Tanrath said.

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

Yes, the store the father pointed to looked like it had been crushed.

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

Broken crates were piled up in front of the store, and the roof looked like it had a hole in one part.

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

The store did not appear to be lit, and in the dim light of day, it looked eerie.

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

Is it really that place?

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

I'm sure it's there. Look.

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

The father shows Ms. Relyea a piece of paper that Mr. Micke wrote on.

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

It's really that place.

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

Leelia's brow wrinkles as she looks at the paper Micke wrote on.

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

She looks at the name of the store on the paper and the name of the store in front of her and seems to be convinced.

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

'Well then, let's go.'

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

As Mr. Ariras started walking, Mr. Tanrath and Leelia started walking.

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

As I followed them, I looked up at the sky.

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

It was dark enough that it could rain at any moment, but it was not raining yet.

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

I hope it stays like this until we return to the inn.

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

Excuse me for disturbing you."

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

Ariras calls out to the back of the store.

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 answer.

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

There is, right here.

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

""Heh!""

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

Ariras and the others let out a small scream at the sudden voice, and I jumped up.

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

I held my pounding heart, and my father patted me gently on the back.

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

I was so relieved that my body relaxed.

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

I mean, who is it?

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

I didn't feel any presence at all.

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

I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to be so surprised. I didn't think you'd be that surprised.

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

I look in the direction where the voice came from and see a short, fat man.

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

I tilted my head as I looked at him.

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

He was right in front of me, but his presence was very faint.

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

'I don't think I've seen this face before. I mean, who introduced you?　You wouldn't expect such a rundown store to be open without an introduction, would you?"

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

Are you the owner, by any chance?

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

'Well, I'm a traveling adventurer. I was introduced by someone staying at the inn. Surely you wouldn't expect it to be open without an introduction."

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

Ritually, Mr. Ariras returns all the answers.

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

I don't think I needed the last answer, though.

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

The man thought so, too, and after looking a little surprised at Ariras-san's answer, he started laughing.

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

Ariras realized what kind of answer he had given and looked a little flustered.

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

It's all right. It's just as you said. Well, if you have something to do in a place like this, go ahead.

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

The owner held the door with both hands.

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

What, both hands?

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

Gagot.

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

He lifted the door up and propped it against the wall beside him.

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

Sorry, I haven't fixed it since it broke.

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

It seems like a hassle to lift and move the door every time I open the store, so I guess I'd better fix it as soon as possible.

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

Isn't it a hassle to lift the door every time?"

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

Leelia asks the owner as she enters the store.

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

'You get used to it. Has it been four years already?　No, it's been that way for five years.

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

Isn't that to say that you don't want to fix it anymore?

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

The shopkeeper's reply is met with a look of dismay on Leelia's and Tanrath's faces.

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

'Well, you can look at it however you like. Don't go to the back. That place will collapse one day."

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

At the owner's words, I looked toward the back of the store.

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

There was a tilted shelf there.

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

It certainly wouldn't look out of place if it had just collapsed.

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

Are there any other dangers?

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

The floor is fine. After I was injured once when the floor fell down, I replaced it with a sturdy material.

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

The owner of the store responds to his father's question with a tilted head.

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

Does it mean that anything other than the floor is dangerous?

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

I look at the shelves next to it.

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

It looks so solid that it doesn't look like it's about to fall over.

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

It's probably safe.

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

I'll let you look around as you like.

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

Oh, if you see something you like, just let me know.

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

The owner gave me permission to look at the shelves where the products are placed.

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

I'm not sure if it's "placed" or "thrown in," though.

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

Wow."

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

I looked at my father, who was nodding with a stone in his hand.

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 quality of the grinding stones is quite good. She's the one who recommended this store to me.

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

He takes the stone from his father.

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

The stone is black with a smooth surface.

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

To be honest, I have no idea how good the whetstone is.

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

I look at the shelf in front of me.

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

There is a similar stone, so I pick it up.

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

When I touch it, the surfaces of the two stones are slightly different.

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

Until I met my father, I had been using knives and kitchen knives that I had picked up at the garbage dump.

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

So it was common sense to pick up a new knife or knife at the garbage dump if it became less sharp than when I picked it up.

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

I never thought that if I sharpened them with a whetstone, they would be sharper than when I picked them up.

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

The first time my father sharpened my kitchen knives, I was very impressed.

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

That day, I wasted so much time chopping vegetables that I ended up with three pots of soup.

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

Ivy told me, "You might want to start with a stone that is a little rougher and softer than the whetstone I picked up.

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

Oh, I wasn't choosing, I was just picking it up.

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

Today I got used to sharpening, so I came to buy my own whetstone.

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

I can't keep borrowing your father's whetstone.

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

Is that so?"　I thought it was the whetstone you were interested in."

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

He shakes his head at his father's words and puts the whetstone back where he found it.

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

Some people sharpen with just the medium whetstone, but if you're thinking about sharpness, I think you should sharpen with all three types.

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

I think it is better to sharpen with three different types of whetstones. I will use three different types of whetstones to sharpen my work just like your father.

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

My father taught me how to sharpen with a rough whetstone, a medium whetstone, and a finishing whetstone.

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

So I plan to use three different types of whetstones.

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

I will ask my father and choose one that is the right size for me to use.

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

Now I need to take care of the handle. I have a magic item that I recommend. Where can I find it?

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

He remembered a magic item that his father had bought for cleaning.

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

It was a box-shaped item with a hole in one place.

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

Ivy, there it is.

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

I went to the place where my father was beckoning me, and there were box-shaped magic items lined up.

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

They looked a little smaller than the ones he had bought before.

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

"Are they all the same in performance?"

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

They are all the same," he said. They are all the same, just the size of the box is slightly different.

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

Wow," I looked behind me in panic.

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

I looked behind me and saw the owner.

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

This guy is a real character.

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

Please don't stand behind me unexpectedly."

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

At the father's words, the shopkeeper cowered his shoulders and took one of the boxes.

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

This is the toughest of them all. This is the one I recommend."

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

I accept the box-shaped magic item that is placed in front of me.

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

The owner nodded and returned to his original place.

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

He is a very unique person, isn't he?

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

Yes, he is."

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

The father chuckles.

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

Slam.

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

Hmm?

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

I heard a familiar voice coming from the doorway of the store.

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

I looked and saw Mr. Gabari, the leader of the neighborhood watch, holding the door.

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

He said, "Hey, as I always say, you should at least fix the door. Someday someone will get hurt.

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

He said, "It won't be a problem if you come in quietly. You were the one who broke down the door in the first place!

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

What, a fight?

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

I look at the shopkeeper and the head gabari alternately.

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

They are totally different in height, but somehow look alike?

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

"Oh, ...... sorry. I didn't think there would be customers in a restaurant like this."

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

What a way to talk.

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

What are you doing here?

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

"Oh, my sword spilled its blade. I need you to fix it.

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

What?　This is the third time this month.

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

The owner's angry voice makes Commander Gabari look a little grumpy.

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

He says he's sorry. But we don't have a choice, do we?　It seems that a high-ranking demon has appeared deep in the forest, and the gaolers are coming close to the village. I'll fight to keep them from coming any further into the village, but their bodies are really hard. Please tolerate a few spilled blades."

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

As I recall, Gaol is a demon covered with a very tough shell, and when it invades your territory, it will attack you with its body, right?

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

But I read in a book that those demons don't come out of the depths of the forest.
