8 1-8 Life in a different world Town, cow skewers, and cat-eared girl




Well, you've been very persistent. How are you? Did it work?

I opened the door and was approached by Rainrich, who was sitting in the reception area.

''Oh well........is it?''
Let me see. Let me see.

After being told that, I took out the finished potions from the magical space and lined them up.

I'm not going to be able to get my hands on them. You did a great job. Not badly done.
'Oh, is that right? I'm kind of happy about that.
'I thought I'd be better off if I could get to (micro), but yeah. It's nice to have someone so good join the guild.

I wonder. I'm strangely happy.
I'm sure you did a really good job.

"Show me, tell me, tell me, tell me.
 If you don't praise them, they don't move.

As Isoroku Yamamoto said, this is very motivating.
It makes you want to give it your best shot next time.

That's right. Where do I go to sell a potion or something?
''We can either sell it to our house or go directly to the Adventurer's Guild for wholesale. ''But there's a demand for it, so we'll be able to sell it no problem.''
Can't you open a stall or something?
You'll be able to open it. But in that case, you'll have to ask the merchant guild to issue a bill of sale for a fee. My recommendation is to go to the Adventurer's Guild.
I see...

There's a lot of (inferior) and (micro), so it helps that there's a demand for it.

'Oh, and I made some accessories, can you look at them?
Ho. You've gone to a lot of trouble.

I hand him the twisted necklace I took out of magical space.

''Ho! You did great! I'm sure we can get a deal on this one for ten thousand nolls.
'Seriously? That's expensive!

The necklace is awesome!
10,000 Nol is the same as my pocket money skill.
Although the MP efficiency is not very efficient, if I go into the alchemy room and make one, I will not only get my money back, but I will turn it into a profit.
Moreover, the cost of materials can make 8 pieces with one iron ingot.
Even if three of them fail, if I can make even one of them, I can make a great profit.
After all, selling the ingots as they were was cheap and a waste of money.

However, it's only a necklace made of iron, so it's worth it.
You'd do that if just wearing it around your neck would have the same effect as leather armor.
'Oh! I see!

What an old lady. She's really good at getting people on board, isn't she?
Then it would be more profitable to hide in the alchemy room again when I return and mass-produce the accessories.

''If we take this to the Adventurer's Guild with us, they will trade it with us.
'Oh! Then I'll just go get something to eat first.

Would it be better to put the potions in a magic bag rather than a magic space?
If you take out items from an empty space, it's going to be a hassle.
The item bag........well, it's a borrowed item that Hayato gave me.
If someone says anything, I'll tell them honestly that I borrowed it from Hayato.
Hayato is an adventurer's guild, after all. Yes, that's right, they'll understand.

It's a good idea to go. If you don't get rid of your gut, you won't be able to do business in a calm manner.
Yeah. You got any suggestions for places to eat?
I don't know what you 'drifters' like.... There are food stalls lined up around the fountain in the central square, so I suggest you eat what you want there.

A food truck! Nice. I feel like eating a kebab or something.

Do you have any money before you sell? I don't mind paying for a bottle of potions after the money comes in, though.
I'm fine! I can get my hands on 10,000 knolls in a heartbeat! Then I'm off!

Then he turns around and activates his 'allowance'.
Then a silver coin fell out of the air, and he caught it and put it inside his magic bag.
Rainrich might have seen it, but it's not something that would bother him to see, and Rainrich wouldn't have a problem with it.

''........drifters still have incomprehensible skills.......right? Well, being an eccentric, I have high hopes for you.

Rainrich said that and looked off my back languidly.


After leaving the alchemists' guild, I started walking towards the central square.
I don't know the direction exactly, but I started walking in the direction of a delicious smell.
The aroma of fragrant meat stimulates my stomach even more, and my mouth is almost full of saliva.
I walked out naturally and quickly, avoiding the crowds of people while aiming at the destination and soon arrived at what was relatively close to it.

Since it is called the central square, there are a lot of people, but not so much that you can't walk.
And the first thing that catches your eye will be the big fountain and the statue of the goddess in front of it.
The statue looks vaguely familiar, but could it be the goddess who gave me my skills?
But the real one was a bit prettier.

But now it's not about that, it's about the stall! There were dozens of stalls lined up, and all of them were shouting to attract customers.

Come on, come on, come on, come on! Today, we're serving salt grilled sea fish from the port town of Meraldo! An excellent dish is a whopping 700 Nol!'
"Look who's here! A beef skewer of the famous Helen's Farm beef roasted for a whopping 800 nolls each!
'Well, sir, it's all well and good to have meat and fish, but you've got to have staple food! It's fluffy white bread made from wheat from the Fails Plains! I can't get enough of this, it goes with meat and it goes with fish too! It's 1,000 nol per unit, but that's a lot of volume!'

Perhaps this is because this is a commercial city.
They explain where they got their products from and make an effort to make their business look more attractive than any other store.

All of them look delicious. I think I could eat them all right now.

'This is the meat of a large caterpillar from this area! It's not just the local produce that's good! The caterpillars in the vicinity of Ains Hale are excellent! It's a little pricey, but it's worth it! 'Caterpillar baking is 3,000 knolls!

I take it back, I can't do it all.
I mean, this world is going to eat that giant caterpillar!
And it's expensive!
It costs almost four times as much as those delicious-looking beef skewers!
Isn't that caterpillar a demon at least.
In this world, demons eat demons too.....
And surprisingly, there are a lot of people eating them........
Uppu......... It seems like it's best not to look at them too much.
I haven't eaten anything, so my stomach juices seem to be rising.

Anyway, avoid the bugs and I'll eat the beef rather than something I don't know what it is.
I bought two beef skewers and a piece of white bread with change.
We were also interested in the fish, but now we felt like having a solid meal of meat.

It was 2,600 knolls. In Japan, it would be extravagant for a lunch, but it was good for today.
We found a vacant bench near the fountain, so we sat down and took a bite of beef skewers at the bench.
The owner claimed that the beef came from a place called Helen's Farm and that it was excellent and fatty, and he was right.
It was delicious. I didn't know that meat that was lightly grilled with salt, not tare, could be this good.
The more you bite into it, the more you feel the juices overflowing. The more I chewed, the more the flavor seeped out, and the more it melted in my mouth in an instant.

Then he took a bite of a loaf of white bread, tearing it lengthwise.
This soft and slightly sweet white bread would go with just about anything.
Naturally, it goes well with this beef skewer.
This one also went down in a flash.
I want to eat this with a beef skewer between them. I want to eat them both like a sandwich.
Unable to resist that desire, I tore a new piece of white bread lengthwise, put a beef skewer on it, pulled out the skewer, sandwiched it between the two, and took a bite.

Ahhh ... I can't get enough.
The fluffy softness of the white bread. And the fat that overflows from the beef skewer was absorbed, making it even more delicious, evolving into something terribly delicious.
After biting down on the fluffy white bread, you can feel the difference in texture between this dish and the beef skewer.
It may be unorthodox, but if it's good, I think it's okay.

Now, when I took another bite, I saw a little girl with cat ears in front of me with her mouth wide open.
When I looked at the girl with cat ears, she seemed to have noticed me and hurriedly closed her mouth, but her eyes were focused on this beef skewer sandwich.
After looking at the beef skewer sandwich, when you look at the girl, your gaze is fixed on the girl while holding her stomach.

''Uh ... do you want to eat?''

When I heard that, the cat-eared girl nodded her head, but the waka on her neck seemed to bother her.
When I offered her a beef skewer sandwich, she noticed that it was halfway through eating it, but the girl didn't care, she opened her small mouth wide and bit into it as if it didn't matter.
It's a good idea to make sure that you have a good idea of what you're looking for.
The cat's ears and tail are also very cute.

"Ah, here they are!

A merchant-like man walking from the direction of the crowd spots the cat-eared girl and hurries up to her.
The merchant gasps and gasps for breath, but he doesn't look evil.
On the contrary, he was a man with a characteristic good-natured face.

''Huh I've been looking for you. I told you not to get separated from me, didn't I? Huh?''

When I look at the cat-eared girl who is mugging and eating something, she looks at me holding a piece of white bread she's about to eat.

''Uh ... isn't it bad? It's bad manners to give food to a slave without permission.''
Slave?
Yes, you see the collar? This is the mark of a slave. Don't you know that?
Yeah, I'm sorry. I didn't know.
I see........judging by his unusual clothing, he must be a nobleman of some kind, right? In that case, would you like to purchase this slave?

Strange clothes...? Come to think of it, I'm wearing a suit and a y-shirt right now. I'm not wearing a business suit, but I'm wearing a tie, so I'm dressed like an outside salesman.
I'm sure it's an unusual outfit, because of course there's no one dressed in the same way when I look around.

'No, it's not like that, but... I don't have any money right now, so, yeah?'

When I looked at him with a quicky sleeve, the cat-eared girl looked at the beef skewer sandwich again and then pleaded with her eyes to plead with him.
I checked my gaze on the merchant-like man and he held out his palm to me as if to say, "Here you go.
Permission was granted, so I held the beef skewer sandwich in front of him and he opened his mouth wide again and took a bite of it.
The beef skewer sandwich is now just a small piece of white bread to the edge, but the girl seems to enjoy it, so I've given up on it.

''It's getting pretty tame, so I'll say we're going to buy one here...''
No, wait. He's really broke now.
Now, you mean, if you have the money, you can buy it?
'Wait, wait, wait. I don't know the price and I don't know what to do with a slave. Do we even want to trade in this traffic in the first place?

When I look around, I can see that they are looking at me from a distance.

''........That's true too. Well then, if you're interested, please come to the Yashis Slave Trading House.

Is there such a thing as a slave trading house? I mean, slaves are common in this world.....
Come to think of it, I've got a feeling that the dog-eared boy doing menial work at the stall was also wearing a collar.

I understand. If I can afford it, I'm going to try to show my face.
Yes, I'll be happy to do so. My business instincts tell me we'll be good friends for a long time, and I'll be happy to oblige.

Quikkii pulled my shirt further and I turned my face to look at him and he gaped at me again.
I held it out in front of me to see if he wanted the last bite, and he shook his face with a plop.

'Come, hey. I promise.
Yeah. Yeah, oh.

The cat-eared girl was surprised by the words, and she crunched up the beef skewer sandwich she offered and left with the slaver.
As they left, they turned to me and waved to me. I raised my hand to return it and they disappeared into the crowd.

All that was left was the cold beef skewer and the other half of the white bread, which was so good even when cold that I decided to buy it again.
