How To Live In A Different World

Episode 16: Gaffi the Blacksmith

I woke up at 4: 00 in the morning, just like yesterday.

After dinner because a lot of money came in, I really thought about playing in the city at night, but I stopped.

Because of my character, I'm afraid that someone who has become a billionaire in a common lottery is going to end up bankrupt.

I wanted to make sure that I could only earn the same amount and explore the use until my height was right.

Incidentally, the current holdings are close to 170,000 zennies, and the Japanese yen is about 1.7 million yen.

Considering the cost of a day's inn and meals, it's about 400 zennies, so I can afford a year.

However, I'm not going to carry this much money with me, so I deposited 160,000 zennies with the bank, the service of the Adventurer Guild, after talking to Celine yesterday.

The Adventurer Guild provides a lot of assistance to adventurers on things they may have trouble with on a daily basis.

Deposit services are one of them.

I don't know what will happen if I get out on the field, it is an outlaw profession.

It is safer not to carry large sums of money to avoid being targeted by suspicious people.

The money is absolutely fine because the adventurer guild fully guarantees it.

The adventurer's guild has become a huge network all over the continent and, depending on the conditions, even royal marquis nobility cannot easily export it.

Well, there are various other services, but I'm going to use them.

That's why I was tired yesterday, so I just went to bed.

I squashed my time in my room and came down to the 1F dining room around 7: 00 in the morning.

"Good morning, Uncle, I'll have breakfast."

"Aye, I'm a little stuck at the table. I'll have it ready in a minute.

I sat in a seat with a view of the street and watched the merchants starting to work early in the morning and the commuters working in the factory district right next door.

"Ooh, Elban, I had breakfast today, too. Well"

In the meantime, a man of disappointing stature with a low mustache in his toy came in.

It's commonly known as Dwarf.

I think the dining room was supposed to be here only day and night?

I thought that way looking away at the man who came in.

"Ooh, Gaffi, good morning. I'll have it ready just fine.

My uncle answered as usual.

So the man looked at me and approached me.

"Whoa, you're the odd adventurer!

"Yeah, which one is it?

"Whoa, I'm not like Gaffi. He is mainly a craftsman of weapons and protective equipment in the next factory.

"Ha, ha, I'm Yoji using this inn. Regards."

Something feels familiar, but I don't really feel bad, so I'll just say hi back.

"You, I often stay at such an inconvenient lodging.

"Oh no! If you say anything more, I'll kick you out!

Elban said to the man with breakfast for two, feeling a little musty.

"Ooh, I'm sorry. I got a little serious. Kanban Kanban."

I'm serious!, and penetrated in my mind.

"This guy, he's one of us when I used to be an adventurer. When I started the inn, he stopped being an adventurer and became an artisan.

"Heh, was Mr. Elban a former adventurer?

"That's right. This guy, this guy's wife and me and the other two five had an adventurer, and suddenly I started saying that I was getting married and starting a lodging house, and I became an artisan because I was just fine too.

"It's just that Gaffi is still single with this look. The house is in this neighborhood. That's why I come to dinner every morning, noon and night.

They both sat at the same table at some point and started giving me explanations.

"Well, the inn meal here is delicious. I know it comes every day.

"Whoa, brother, you're going to say something nice. Right! Right!

"I have a problem with it for me, but honestly I think it would be more profitable if I made all 2f into the dining room!

"Whoa! You think so too? I say so too, but I don't try to hear it at all.

"That's all, don't get sloppy. No matter what anyone says, I'm an uncle at the inn and I'm not a diner! Cooking is only a hobby, hobby!

"Well, that's fine if that's what you are."

They talked to each other in a way they liked each other, even though they felt bad about it.

"But lately, I've been having a lot of sleepovers here, and I've had quite a bit of fun. You said you were going to stay here for a long time, so I thought you were definitely going to give me a hard time.

"You, fool! What do you mean, a valued customer? What will you do if you get away with it!

"It's okay. I've decided to stay for three months.

"Whoa, seriously. Maido!

"I don't know what I liked about this inconvenient lodging... it's odd.

That's what Dwarf's Gaffi looked at me like he was looking at something pathetic.

Then we had a fun breakfast while the three of us talked.

"So, Mr. Gaffi is an artisan, isn't he?

"I see.

"Can you ask me to repair or adjust weapons and protective equipment?

"Oops, I'm just saying it's no problem, but I don't usually need you to go through the store. I haven't been hired.

"Oh really?

"What the hell, do it to him. Your brother is my good at this, so you need to be a little accommodating.

"Okay, okay. But don't tell the others. I'm still a nominee by name, so it's hard to ignore an appointment without going through the store.

"Were you such a famous person? I'm sorry."

"Well, it's Elban's favor, and I like you, too, so I'll do it. Just bring it.

"I understand. Wait a minute, please.

That said, I went back to my room and came down with all my weapons and protective equipment.

"You, take a lot of weapons. You're gonna use all this?

"Yeah, I'm solo, so I change my weapon every time.

"Oh, don't do it in an interesting way. It's just that way, I don't think I'm going to be cleverly poor.

"I'll think about it if we start throwing parties ahead.

"Well, I hope you like it.

That being the case, Gaffi checked out knives, short swords and short spears, and began to look more and more harsh.

What am I, that? Seeing it like that.

"Are you sure you're using this?

"Yeah, that's right.

"Hmm."

"What's up, Gaffi?

"I'm not an amateur at taking care of it, but I do it right. All cheap weapons."

"Oh, my God, what's wrong?"

"If you look at this usage, you're defeating a monster. It's not a hundred or 200, this usage. You look like you've just started an adventurer.

Come on, do I still look weak here?

I feel like I've been told the same thing several times before.

Well, no.

Aside from that, I listened to Gaffi and was surprised to see how many demons he crusaded after just looking at this old man.

In fact, nearly 500 goblins were defeated in the village of Tales, and I was alone during the escort, so I have slaughtered about 600 if only a few.

"Heh, that's amazing. Can you tell the number of crusades just by looking at them? Well, it's just a weak demon. I think it will be a good number when combined.

"All right, all right. For now, the price is 3,000 zennies.

"What? Can I be that cheap?

"Well, it's cheaper than it used to be, and I'm going to rework it a little. I don't mind."

Honestly, I expected three times the price I offered, but I'm very lucky.

"Well, thank you.

"Okay, I get it. I have other job adjustments. I will keep them for three days, okay?

"Yes, I don't mind. Because I was just about to take a few days off.

"All right, let's negotiate.

I decided to give Mr. Gaffi 3,000 zennies to get a set of gear repaired.
