Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events
1.1-10 Village 4
So.
After breakfast, the waltzes headed to the shopkeeper who was in the store's backyard.
What you don't know is you just have to ask the adults in that world......
Waltz seems to have thought about that.
As a result, the two find a shopkeeper in the backyard and try to talk to him...
The shopkeeper there looked at the pile of firewood (...) piled high in the backyard and seemed to solidify in a flash.
"Uh, excuse me...... store owner?
"... oh, dude? What's up, ladies? Have you finished your breakfast?
And, did you return it to me with Waltz's voice, the shopkeeper looking back at the Waltz and the others in a shabby move?
Towards him like that, Waltz asked for direct access.
"Yes, thank you. By the way... there's no store near here that buys out ores and gems... right?
"... very abrupt..."
"No, actually, I thought I'd make some money... Look, we have money from another country, but we don't have any money from this country, do we? But I know a little bit about it, and selling ore and stuff like that is going to work out."
and waltz, blurring everywhere, asking if there is any way to sell ore or metal.
Then the shopkeeper answered this, scratching his thinning head of hair poly.
"Exactly, I have to go to town. But to get to town, it's going to cost a lot of travel............ oh yeah, once every two weeks, if the merchants (caravans) go through the village...... maybe they'll buy it out?
"" Khiraan?
"Oh. You don't have to go to town and shop all the way, it's about the guys who bring you stuff. It takes days to get to town, so we don't get there that often either. People like us who keep an eye on people who can't get to town easily, marginalise and do business, they come here regularly."
"Margin... is it like a commission... By the way, when are you coming next?
"Right, it's been awhile since the last time... probably in the last few days... maybe... we'll be here the day after tomorrow or so?
"Okay...... (Sounds like a good time...... I mean, could we make it?
and waltz to mine the ore by the day after tomorrow to figure out if refining can also be done.
Then she just wondered if there was anything else to ask...
I seem to recall something.
"(Ah... I'm good, but I need to think about Lucia's bunk...)"
Waltz himself, because he doesn't sleep in the first place, can continue his activities with insomniac rest, but a normal human (?) In Lucia's case, she needed a place where she could rest in peace.
"(Dangerous, I almost forgot...) And then I have another question... is there an inn nearby or something?
"Inn is next to our 3 houses..."
"Really? (Then again, the problem is the cost of the inn... I hope this one lets you stay in barter too...... what do you think?
and that waltz is haunting my mind about the inn tonight......
At that time, the owner of the liquor store asked the waltzes.
"By the way... this pile of firewood... did the ladies really do it?
"Huh? Oh, yes. Only the firewood that was loaded there didn't get that amount, so if I had also slashed the trees that were growing in the nearby woods... when I noticed the firewood was piling up, sorry..." sneaky
"I'm sorry......" Shin
"No, I don't mean to be angry or troubled... or crack so many raw trees... maybe the ladies, wizards or something?
Waltz thinks for a moment about how to answer a store owner's words like that.
Lucia is undoubtedly a ”wizard” because she can use magic.
But in Waltz's case, it was just a force move using superscience.
She wondered if it was a good thing to do this and say it was magical power.
"(The science that went on is Nantara, if you truly take the story, maybe I can call myself a” wizard ”too...)"
And after a short time, Waltz thought about what power he had...
You found the right answer, I said it like this briefly.
"Yeah, well, that's the place,"
By not unequivocally affirming it, I make it aye free......
She seems to have decided, with such a half-answer, to delude herself.
Then I don't know if I guessed what that meant, but when the shopkeeper smiled bitterly in its face...
I threw these questions at the waltzes.
"Then... what do you say? Why don't you work for us?
"" What...?
"Well, it doesn't look like an adventurer... or a stuffed animal... but... it feels like one of us is running away, right?
…………
"Then you can work for us. Inns will be prepared, meals will be prepared. Three meals a day, of course."
I didn't have anything like luggage, I came hungry......
Looking at them like that, the shopkeeper seemed to think they were refugees who had fled the war or children for a reason.
Waltz, on the other hand, seemed wary that the store owner's story was too good.
... I was wondering if it would be a guilty idea for the store owner.
But from the look on his face that seemed soft, that didn't seem like it.
As a result, Waltz asked what he would do and what he would do.
"... by the way, that's... not a waitress, is it? I just want to stop being a clerk..."
And, you just didn't like to serve customers at the tavern, waltz mouthing such confirmation words.
The owner of the liquor store who heard that somehow, after his eyes were dotted and hardened...
"No, I won't let that go to waste!" Gahh.
And with his mouth, he seemed to begin to laugh audaciously.
Then for a while we just calmed down the laughter of the store owner......
He started talking about what he was doing.
"My shop uses demonic meat for cooking, but lately, it's been poorly purchased... I also have the hunter do his best... that lady, she's not a wizard, so the hunt doesn't go as far as she wants. So I asked the ladies, with the hunter, to hunt demons. It's so easy to crack firewood, you can't possibly be weak, can you? Of course, it's a hazardous job, so you can pay extra for turnover. Well, even if the hunting doesn't go the way you want... we'll provide you with a place to sleep and about a meal for free, huh?
When I heard the owner's suggestion...
"Hmm... if you're with your sister, I'll do my best, okay?
and Lucia looking positive.
Until recently, she was passive about hunting demons, but she thought that if she could stand on her own without taking care of Waltz, she could hunt.
Or maybe the fact that the specific story came out of the store owner's mouth was one reason.
In contrast, waltz, uh, after roaring...
He said that he had heard it earlier, but it seems that he has spoken of this question again.
"I'm confirming... you don't have to work as a waitress, do you? It's true, isn't it?
Apparently Waltz, thoroughly, didn't just want to be a clerk.
... thus.
Waltz and Lucia were successful in winning three meals a day and an inn after drinking a suggestion from the liquor store owner.
