Return to the Alliance from the Refinery to make a report. Now rank up.

"Hello, Sally. I have fulfilled my request."

"Yes, may I have your guild card?

As usual, Mr. Sally handles me with a smile. I will also give you an Alliance Card with a smile.

I felt Sally's smile twitching.

"I'm not going to penetrate... I'm not going to penetrate... Yes, it's 9972 kg, so it's 19944 tel."

Sally comes into the back with a bump and handles the coins and guild cards. I threw it in the item box. The Alliance Card says Rank F.

I have 4 pieces of iron cargo. Iron cargo seems to have been cast, but it seems to be a little too shaped and the iron itself has a lot of impurities. Well, you can't afford to spend so much money on the cheapest currency.

Thank you and leave the Alliance. I've become a little rich again. Nevertheless, it is likely that they will disappear soon because they still have to collect what they need to live as adventurers.

Enter the grocery store next to the Guild for now. It's about half the size of a convenience store on Earth.

"Welcome, what are you buying?

The old woman talks to me. The shop is in quite a good location, but the clerk seems to be just this old woman. Maybe people don't depend on what they look like.

There is a shelf in the shop, and the layout is different from the convenience store where the goods are stored but the crime prevention is also considered. Of course there is no cash register or cooler.

Instead of drinks are the potions. The shape of the container cap varies depending on the type. The container has a wooden cup (but about twice the size of the lid of a pet bottle) and a wooden lid, and the lid and the container are cemented together. How do I open it?

The price is high for the quantity, but now it is slightly cheaper than usual, so it is written that it is time to buy it. Did something happen? The old lady was a mess, and she bought too much by mistake?

Compare the price of the potion with the appraisal results. The potion is still quite expensive.

A potion that seems to restore about 2 HP per potion costs 1200 tels for 2 days. But can you say it's cheaper if you can recover one fifteenth of normal human health? Simply weighing 1/15 would restore about 4 kg of body function.

I don't know what HP is, but the fact that 2 recoveries are sold at such a high price would still be quite helpful.

I am in trouble if I cannot use healing magic, so I will buy about 5 bottles for now.

I don't think I'll get into such a situation soon, and I don't know if I can use the medicine then. It says that if I use one bottle in the first place, it won't work even if I use the medicine of the same system for 30 minutes. If we run out, we can refill it.

The potion that restores magic is also expensive. The potion that restores 7 MP is 1000 Tel. Wizards like MP30 can quickly replenish the amount of magic they heal in about four hours, but I don't need it. It's a level that recovers while I'm taking out and taking medicine like MP7. That's exactly what I might say too much.

Continuous use of Magic Recovery Potions is more permissive than Health Recovery Potions. Still, it doesn't seem to work for 5 minutes.

And I found about 20 dusty containers on the edges of those potions' shelves.

Price tags - like the billboards used in guilds. Value plate? It says 100 tel. It's cheap.

I'll do an appraisal.

Magic Heal Acceleration Potion

Description: Increase magic healing speed by 10x. Effective time is 3 hours.

It's exactly like a potion for me. I can heal nearly 3,000 with one of these. Moreover, there are no restrictions on continuous use. Besides, when it was cheap.

I have to buy it. I grab all the magic healing acceleration potions on the shelf and put them on my hands and arms to carry them to my old lady while dexterily balancing with my HP potions.

"It's not a magic potion, it's a healing acceleration potion. Are you sure that's okay?

"Yes, I'd rather have this! Rather, I don't know why these things were dusty!

Well, it's probably because ordinary people have less MP.

"Well then, that potion is cheap because there are few ingredients. It won't be useful for adventurers unless it's quick, and it's better to consume magic potions continuously for the same amount of time if you use them for a long time. As long as it's good, the magic potion won't be good. At best, it's a safe place for those who work with magic to use it for combat."

Really? Well, I can use it, so thank you for buying it all. By the way, how do I open this lid?

"You don't know that either, do you? Of course you can use life magic, right? If you say open it, I'll open it. If you're not familiar with it, you'd better not. I hope you buy it, but if you die, we'll lose one customer."

I don't have life magic, but I don't think I can use it because of my skills. Regardless of whether it is okay to just say it is opened or imagine it.

"Yeah, I'll try not to push it. And this, please."

That's why I'll give you 8 silver coins as well as an HP potion. Though I thought it might not be enough, there were just 20 Recovery Acceleration Potions.

"Thank you. Please come back. Well, if only we were both alive."

That said, the old woman smiles. I want you to stop making jokes that are not very funny. I am troubled with the reaction.

Parry the old woman's jokes with the unique skills of the Japanese, and leave the shop behind, pretending to stick the medicine in her pocket.

It's hard to get stuck in an item box. But you did a good job.

What shall I buy next? I don't think there was anything in particular that I needed. Ah, a cane. Mr. Deverag's shop didn't have a cane.

Looking around, there is a shop with a cane. Mr. Devereaux didn't recommend it, but it's near the Guild and if it's a strange shop, it'll be eliminated.

I'll go to the front of the store for now. The shop said "Magic Tool Store." There is a wand made of trees about 1.2 meters in length.

There are no doors, they sell magic items, but they look like used bookstores in the shopping district. I don't see any shutters, but if I steal, I'll become a bandit, so I guess I don't have to worry too much about security. Besides, this is in front of the guild, so I think it's easy to find out if you try to steal it.

In addition to the long cane, there is also a 60cm cane and magical equipment that makes the lights in the inn look a little smaller.

If you look at the magic equipment that looked like the lights in the inn, you can see that it's called the "magic lamp". It seems to be a light that uses magic by name.

It says it operates for about 8 hours at an MP of 1. Looks like a lot of fuel. The price is 500 tels and it's very affordable.

Looking at the magic lights, you can hear voices coming from the back of the shop.

Are you interested in magic lights?

It was the woman who called out to me, who was the wizard.

A wizard doesn't mean an old woman wearing an eagle nose and a mountain hat.

A Lori wizard like Lanobe. Short blue hair, blue eyes, low height, light chest armor, not as good as a armor shop, and a wand about 1m 20cm in hand.

Which is the perfect Lori wizard.

"Yes, no. What I want is a cane, but I was just looking at it because it got into my eyes. It's a short cane, like this one."

That said, about 15-20 cm is shown by hand.

"Heh? Fufu, you're a strange person. Isn't there such a wand? Even if you use a wand that long, the magic speed is at most 2,3 times higher. If you use your magic a little faster, but not at least 10 times faster for combat purposes, you won't be able to use it.

The Lori Wizard laughs when he thinks he's done something. Cute.

"Ah, I'm pretty quick, so that's fine. Until now, I have been fighting using magic with a sword and shield, but since the shield is a type that attaches to my arm, my left hand is open. I want a wand that won't get in my way."

"Now you're going to use magic with a sword? I want you to tell me a joke and take a rest. But if there's even money, I'll make it. What do you do? If it is that size, it will be about 2000 tel. I can't return it even if they say it was useless later."

Apparently they'll make it for me. But I think I can just cut down the cane around there, but do I have to wait for it to be made?

"Can't you just cut what's in that corner? It could be a little higher."

That's what I said, pointing to a 60-cm wand that says 4000 tel on the value plate.

"Cut...!? Squeeze it... cut it...! The wand... Kukukuku....."

I think they laughed at me. Did I say something so strange? [M]

"The wand, hah, kuku, depending on the part, pupu, depending on the part, functions, kuku, so even if you cut it down, pupu, there's no point. Pukuku" (It seems to say that the cane has a function depending on the site, so it makes no sense to cut it down)

Is that so?

That's right.

Well, that's it, please.

I give two silver coins and leave the shop waiting for the Lori Wizard, who has fallen down too much in laughter, to rise.

Lori, who seems to have finally recovered from laughter, said, "I think we can do it tomorrow at noon." We'll have the gear by tomorrow evening, including the armor.

If the F-Rank request may have been a request for a crusade or an extermination request, why don't we go hunting? I don't think it would be more profitable to harvest herbs, but I paid for all the equipment and didn't have to pay that much. The more you hunt, the higher your level and the higher your rank.

I didn't fight today and I'm not tired, but I didn't have anything to do. So I went back to the inn and ate dinner at the restaurant before going to bed.

Tomorrow I'll spend some time picking herbs and then I'll pick up my gear.
