Later, Layette solved the misunderstanding by explaining that I had become an identity underwriter, or guardian, on the edge of her help.

No, I'm going to take care of Layette all the time, but that just affects my marriage if they think she's my daughter, and Layette's attitude toward me isn't mother-child at all, so if my daughter thinks she's a cold mother, or something, it's going to affect my marriage more and more negatively.

... Already handed at the point of having kids? No, if that's not an acceptable man, it's a wish from here. Layette, let my daughter-in-law out of us!

Then, as planned before, I misled the little one by talking about the tears: "When I was a kid, I was poor and I couldn't feed you (Roku)..."

No, as a Japanese, you're tall enough to average! The white race is just too big!

On Earth, it seems that Westerners were also small at this level of civilization, but that's because of the food. Because I had less chance of eating meat and not enough nutrition.

So, how come everyone's height is like the modern earth in this world, is that it?

A demon that gives low yield crops and breeds as much on its own as it wants, even if it doesn't have to struggle to grow livestock. We need to hunt for the safety of the inhabitants, demons. And the demon whose meat can be eaten.

Yes, if you don't restrain yourself from flavor and solidity, it's pretty inexpensive to get, there's a meat of demons that you can eat.

Depending on the type, some are quite delicious. Nobody eats goblin meat on boulders, but oak and gray bears are pretty good.

I don't eat much demonic meat, and nobles who eat only expensive livestock meat say, 'Oak, you can't eat it, just Echizen' or something... And I made it from bore, bore juice. Either it's a pig or a snake, or it's a bore juice ingredient! Well, if the human body melts, is it the snake? I don't care if you think from the rave "Snake Grass" story......

Well, that's why the people of this world are the height and physique of the Westerners of modern Earth with more carnivores. No, really.

And after a tentative (shiitake) welcome, open it.

No, if I go slower, I can't close the store for a whole day without advance notice, even though I was held back, but it's not closed. We're not a grocery store or anything, we're a pharmacist.

"... but I wonder what it was. I wonder if it was just a facial connection..."

Even if I ask Layette, don't you see...

Or so I walked.

"Layette?"

Suddenly, my uncle, who I didn't know, called me.

There's no way anyone who knows Layette, who never stepped out of a country village, is like that in a place like this. If there is, it is......

When I thought so, I saw me sheltering Layette behind me, and Roland and Francette, who consolidated my left and right. Where did it emerge from......

Well, you are ~.

Now he's not active, and when is he going to be active?

Long, long, long, long, long escort standby has finally come to pay off. It's decided to pop up. And Fransette, well, let's not laugh slightly, which seems obviously delightful. Because I'm not going to know what it is, which is the bad guy.

And the francette strips the teeth (kiva)......

"You're safe, Layette! Good...... So, these are your masters now?

"" "Huh?

Something was wrong.

And when I heard from the man.

A slave-like trade in which you pay 80 years' wages in advance for your annual service at a merchant in another country.

But this seems to be an unavoidable measure to save peasants, who have only two choices: muttering their children, or starving to death as a family. The contract is long because of the safety of the family so that in the future the girl is not taken into its shape (or shape) when she owes money. All I pay for cheap is to make it easier for a girl to return the advance with the money she saves on chips and side jobs.

They can also normally live as civilians because they are only "ordinary servants who say they paid their wages first". Accommodation, three meals with bribes, some allowance for the holidays, and freedom to go out.

Worried about escaping? If I do, a foreclosure collector will go to my parents' house, and in a town in another country I don't know, it's impossible for a young girl to live, etc. It will be the mountains of Sekiyama that dwell in the slums and die prematurely. That's about it, you should be at work with a warm bed and three meals. At least it's much better than my parents, who can barely even eat.

And if you save your own money or someone sees you for the first time (miso) and gives you a shoulder replacement advance, you can bring it into a happy marriage. You know, I can grasp happiness that's not even comparable to a hiccups country village.

"... that's what I was sorry about when the kidnapping group grabbed me.

Even though I don't think what we are doing is embarrassing us to get out in front of the goddess, national rules can make us suspected of trafficking in human beings, and we can't even reach officials and leave the city to flee......

By now, I thought to the comforter at some noble or rich place, That's what makes me feel so happy to have a safe, barren life... "

The middle-aged man, saying so, was weeping.

"... mecha, you're a good man..."

Sure, if it was just people buying it, they wouldn't remember the face or name of the product either. Remember that means he cared about it as one person, not as a product of trading.

"So, Layette, what's the situation now? Bought somewhere..."

"Bullshit! You, what are you talking about here!

Fransette yelling in great haste.

Yes, the slave trade is a felony. It wasn't a good topic to talk about here, even though it was after lunch and there were few people.

"... hey, follow me!

And it was "Atelier of the Layette" that moved. We all went upstairs, keeping the store closed.

"Layette is an ordinary citizen who is now bound by no one and no contract whatsoever.

Yes, this, signed by the lord. So, here's my certificate that I'm the guardian... "

My uncle opens his eyes when he sees a bunch of documents I took out of the item box pretending to be out of his nostalgia.

"Perfect paperwork...... Now this child has normal happiness..."

No, I sure am, but is that okay?

"But isn't your uncle losing a whole lot? I paid Layette's parents, and Layette won't get paid because she can't deliver it to the store..."

That's what I hear.

"No, for once it's business, so some loss is woven. Nothing, it's not like I lost hundreds of gold coins. In the first place, when we were kidnapped but didn't deliver, we lost our rights with the waiver of our obligations."

It's an exemplary answer, as the lord's men told me.

No, it's no trouble and it helps, but how good is he! The merchant, is that all right?

"Um, I'm a merchant, so I need to do a little worse business..."

To my advice, drop your shoulders disappointingly, merchant uncle. Was it a little conscious?

And because of it, my turn to talk to the good guy alone is over, Fransette dropping her shoulders disappointingly as well. Apparently, he wanted to protect me and do a great job of your variance.

... No, you couldn't have already fulfilled that wish at the point where the other person was just one tired uncle with bare hands...

Well, now, I wasn't worried about anything, but Layette, I've cleared up one of your tangled concerns. And then your parents said, "Give my child back! It's a case of" trying to sell it to merchants again, selling it as a daughter-in-law to neighboring villages in about ten bags of wheat, letting them work and take care of themselves, but don't let that happen, educate Layette well..., even if she doesn't.

Layette, she's six years old. And pretty smart. You understand that much. Besides...

Layette is squeezing my hand tightly as she drops off her merchant uncle, who looks happy to go home.

... He stays with me all the time until I go to my wife.

Somehow, I feel that way.

Oh, of course, I'm first to go to my wife!

Take Layette and marry her with you.

... What if a guy shows up that you both want to be my daughter-in-law?

It's settled.

... to such a man, let the heavenly punishment drop!!
