Chapter 2 - 3 Manliness in Commercial City, Einzhale

When I got to the tool shop, there were so many products that I could call it miscellaneous.
A narrowed walkway where people can pass each other barely.

[Welcome......] (Shopkeeper)

The unmotivated screaming shopkeeper is so much weak that he is about to fall asleep.
Is this store all right?

[What kind of thing does master desire?] (Wendy)
[Well, maybe soap. Is there knife for shaving? It's been growing recently.] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[So here and here. Soap is soft, but it can also be used when shaving, and your skin will be smooth. Use this small knife for shaving. It's a safe type even if you get stuck] (Wendy)

Wendy is a great in place where it hard to find the right product from the rough display that I don't know what this is.
So, this is called shaving knife, Its look scary.

[The rest is ... hmm. What is this board?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[That's a magic power guide board. You can pull or pull away one with magic power.] (Wendy)
[What's the little sphere over here?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[It's a vibrating sphere. This vibrates when magic power is passed.] (Wendy)
[What can be use it for?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[……I do not know. Store owner-sama. What is this used for?] (Wendy)
[......who knows?] (Shopkeeper)

Come on. I thought you was a very unmotivated shopkeeper, but you should know how to use the product.

[Hmmm ... let's buy two each for the time being. It could be used for something] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[Wasting money is no good. You know?] (Wendy)
[each cost 10,000 Nord ... Well, it looks interesting, and I have to try it.] (Kazuki Shinomiya)

It's cheap. I feel like I can make something interesting.

Other than that, I decided to purchase convenient magic tools that can easily make a fire, empty magic stones, and glass with irregular shapes.

[Hey. Is there any barrel that big and have deep bottom?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[Barrel? That probably will be that container.] (Shopkeeper)

What the shopkeeper showed with his eyes was a barrel filled with clothes that could make ramen soup.
However, it's a little smaller than I'm looking for, it only above my knees and not very wide.

[What are you going to use with this?] (Wendy)
[I just want to take a bath. I thought I might able to do it if I fill with water in big barrel.] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[Is it not enough with “Wash”?] (Wendy)
[Wash?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)

I read in somewhere. I'm sure that it is life magic will clean the body.

[Yes. There is life magic that can use “Wash”, “Dry”, “Breeze Air” which are convenient for daily life. I can use it, but would you like to give it a try?] (Wendy)
[Huh. That's good. Through I want to test it, but doing it here is bad. I guess?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)

And we make payment and leave tool store immediately as soon as possible.

[Thank... for.... purchase......] (Shopkeeper)

Shopkeeper was unmotivated until the end, but he was still doing the calculations properly.
Price of all item cost 70,000 Nord.
The magic tool that causes fire was a little expensive at 30,000 Nord, but I'm sure it would be convenient if I had this, so it can't help.

[Then, I will cast it <Wash>] (Wendy)

When Wendy closes her eyes and casts a spell on me, something like a ring that spins around my feet goes around me, going up from my feet to the top.
It seen dirt like thing from my body is fall off.
I thought that it should be covered with water and cleaned up, but it seems different.

[Oh. This is pretty refreshing.] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[Baths are luxury items. Only aristocrats and rich people can enter. That is why we, the commoners, clean our bodies in this way. Even so, I cannot take it every day because 2000 Nord is cost for each use.] (Wendy)
[I understand.] (Kazuki Shinomiya)

Seem like more than using bath such skill like “Wash” is being use to clean body.
Even so, it can earn 2,000 Nord just for once is quite attracting.
It seems like I can do it, and I wish I had acquired that skill ...

Whatever. For now, I completed my purpose.
After this, let's ask Wendy for recommendations and go around there.

We eat lunch while watching a travelling performer and have a cup of tea there.
It’s is just casual talk. We are having fun and saying, "The guy's trick was just amazing" and “I like to brew tea lately."
We are talking, laughing and spending time normally like friend or lover.

[Wendy. Wendy. Is it? What are you doing in a place like this? What happened to Yashisu? And who is this guy? It is 120 million Nord. You know. With that amount of money, commers like you can afford it?] (Unknown Man)

It is a man who seems arrogant. It looks younger than me.  Gorgeous clothes, rings with glittering jewels on his fingers, and big belly that look shine as decoration. It's not hot today, but he is sweating for some reason, and a butler look like person wipes sweat all the time.

How do I describe him? He looks like typical idoit son of noble.
More important thing is 120 million......
Should I think price is high or low when I heard price of person’s life is 120 million?
If it was me, 120 million is cheap for one life.
That is only if that is Wendy’s price.
If I only look at numbers, it looks expensive.

[Dardaril-sama.... This person is] (Butler)
[I am Wendy’s master.] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[What? A man like you is the master of Wendy?] (Dardaril)

Wendy look at me with flushed face.
That's right. I'm the master of Wendy for today.
Normally I would say, "Oh, I'm just asking for guidance today ..." but when I imagine this guy buying Wendy make me piss off.
Also, the face of Wendy, who was laughing all day today, instantly became cloudy. You know? I can understand it without having to say she hate him.
That's why I have to protect it, as a man.
After all, I feel like I'm short-temper after come this world. I get angry soon. I think it's too early for change of life.

[……Yes. This person is my master] (Wendy)
[What did you say? ……. Don’t be absurd! It’s Yashisu! Call Yashisu!!] (Dardaril)

When the man yells at the butler man while split coming out, the butler hurriedly walks towards the slave trading house.

[Good Greif! Hey you bastard! Wendy is not a woman for someone like you should not touch. A perfect man like me is suitable for her who is as beautiful as a jewel. Roadside stones are a good match for the odorous and dirty people like you! If you even try touch your one finger on her a bit, I will expose your neck in central square!] (Dardaril)

Hoo. Even touching one finger he said.

[here.] (Kazuki Shinomiya)

Not just one finger, I touch Wendy with my entire body.

[Pugii! Hey, you bastard! Who do you think I am!] (Dardaril)
[No, I don't know at all.] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[...... Puha, master?] (Wendy)

I'm sorry. Was it painful?
Seen like I hugged her a bit stronger.
I gently put my hand on Wendy’s head while embracing, smiling at him.

[I am the son of the lord of this town! I believe you understand what I’m saying it!] (Dardaril)
[If so, what?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[You Bastard, Ahhhhh!!!] (Dardaril)
[Shall we stop this in here?] (Yashisu)

It is Yashisu who entered between us and stopped them with a quick intimidation.
Behind him is a man in a butler's clothes, who is out of breath.

[The jeweler was bringing me something that looked good. So ... Dardaril-sama? What can I help you?] (Yashisu)
[Yashisu! What are you going to do this?! Did you sell Wendy to this guy? I was supposed to buy Wendy.] (Dardaril)

Is there reservation in such place? No, Yashisu will not let her together with me if he accepted reservation.
That’s mean, this guy just made it up for himself.

[Sorry for my rude word but do you already prepare 120 million to buy her?] (Yashisu)
[Ku...... Daddy said it's no good ... but I'll get it soon! What do you intend to do!] (Dardaril)
[What do I intend to you mean?] (Yashisu)
[Why does Wendy call him “master”?! You saying this kind of guy has already prepared 120 million?!] (Dardaril)
[Haa...... Today, we are only lending Wendy as a sample of subordinate slaves to our customers as we guide him through this city. So, for today that customer are the master of Wendy and Wendy is his slave.] (Yashisu)
[Don't mess me around! Then why did I can’t get that sample thing.] (Dardaril)
[It's not sampling Wendy, but a subordinate slave sample. We are doing this because we are going to have a long relationship with our customers from now on.] (Yashisu)

As expected, Yashisu is good at talking.
Maybe he can talk same level as Reinrich.

[You know who I am! It is my daddy who govern western district. You know?] (Dardaril)
[Yes, of course. I’m fully understand. So, do you know who I am?] (Yashisu)

Hmm? Did he say when he was the son of the lord?

[excuse me...... Recently, the lord has been in poor physical condition, but since he has no children, let alone his spouse, the next lord is to be selected from among the governors of the north, south, east, and west districts.] (Yashisu)
[Then, Thing he said he is lord’s son is just something he selfishly dream about future?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[Yeah ... However, Dadaril's father has economic power, and it is said that he is the most powerful because he has backup from underground.] (Yashisu)

Western district governor that he said.

[By the way, Yashisu is also in the western district. Are you going to be ok?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[Yashisu has his own route and his own backing, so there is no problem. Rather, I do not know what will happen to governor if he put out a hand.] (

Yashisu. Scary!!
Yashisu is more powerful than governor who control his district.
Immediately, Yashisu look at me. His mouth laughed when he turned around, but I had a bad feeling.

[Even if it stays this way, it will repeat again. So, how about try to fight each other?] (Yashisu)
[ Did you say match?] (Dardaril)
[Yeah. It's a match between Dardaril and the customer competed on buying Wendy] (Yashisu)

What?

[You said it! I will remember this! Good. All right! I have already collected 50 million Nord after all! I will receive Wendy when I win!] (Dardaril)

Yashisu become to smile.

[First, the rules. How much money does your customer have?] (Yashisu)
[It's about 3.5 million Nord ...] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[Then, please prepare 80 million knolls. Dardaril also prepare 120 million knolls with that] (Yashisu)
[It is unfair! Why I'm 120 million and this guy is 80 million?!] (Dardaril)
[Unfair? Is that so? If you think about the difference in number, Dardaril presented the advantageous conditions, but ... Or should I make 120 million Nord for both without counting money currently you have?] (Yashisu)
[Ah ... No. It’s good. It is true that I’m about to reach 120 million Nord soon.] (Dardaril)
[And also, deadline is one week. Please note that if there is no match, there will be no winner so please remember that.] (Yashisu)

Hey, wait a minute.
Are you planning to make me earn 76 million Nord within a week?
Its mess up...

[Also, direct interference between each other is prohibited. If either get restriction to act, the other party will be lost as we will see it as cheating. Of course, when there is death, I will report it to the lord and conclude that it is the criminal.] (Yashisu)
[..... chi. It’s fine. There is no way that I can lose. Hey, with this, you can't use dirty method] (Dardaril)

Dardaril smile grinningly. You just chick from your mouth and I thought you was going to use it.

[Ahh. And Dardaril-sama. This time, I would like you to stop the dark business.] (Yashisu)
[…… What are you talking about? I'm not doing that kind of business.] (Dardaril)
[Yeah. That's right. I was saying that I should not say to Dardaril-sama who facing fair and square. I am sorry about that.] (Yashisu)
[hmm. You better remember when you take Wendy back] (Dardaril)
[Yes. Of course. Is it okay to say that both parties have agreed?] (Yashisu)
[Sure of course] (Dardaril)
[And how about you, customer?] (Yashisu)
[You must not. Master....] (Wendy)

Good grief.... What is your customer? You know.
Yashisu. I admired you today.
I will takeback my statement. You bastard.
I just want to live in relax quietly and peacefully.
Why isn't it going so well?
Do drifters are all get in trouble like this?

But well...
I gently stroking Wendy's head as he looks up in an anxious look.

[Why are you having anxious look?] (Kazuki Shinomiya)
[However, even for you this match is...] (Wendy)

To be precise, earnings has been improved. It’s a little bit easy. It was just about 20 times.
It’s okay. Right? Even if I try to be like the protagonist.
The opponent is just a pig, not a monster.

[Excellent. I'll take it] (Kazuki Shinomiya)

Since I’m together with her today, I wanted her to be with me for my planned slow life.
So, I can't afford to lose this match.
