In a Different World with a Smartphone

# 85 Collect bottles, and store.

I think I'll start the business I came up with. To do that, we need a former hand first. I could have sold Mithril, but I decided to leave it because I find the array quite useful as a material.

And that's why I copied my bike in the "workshop" and made about 50 first. He went to Mr. Orba, a trader in Mismid with it, and when he negotiated it, he bought it for a pretty high price.

Uhm, can I get so much with that little bit of iron and rubber? Well, I'm a merchant over there, so I can't negotiate to lose money. Probably should make more money with that one. Let's not shy away.

In the meantime, we have all the funds. Go straight to the Mismid bookstore and buy many major story books in this country. If it's a series, I'll buy the whole roll. However, only the one that is complete. I don't want the continuation to remain over on the way. There's no "due date" in this world. It is up to the author whether or not there will be a continuous volume. I can't wait for that. I bought about 500 copies in total.

Now I go to Oed in Echen and buy a book here as well. I thought it might be a scroll or something from the Japanese atmosphere, it was a normal book. I also buy and fish for this at the center of the story. Echen's books are a lot of fairytales. And the monster? I bought about 300 books again and put them in "storage".

I get Yumina's memories handed over to me, and I transfer to Bern, the Imperial capital of the Reef Reese Empire, and I get about 400 books in the bookstore as well. It's my first time in the Imperial Capital, but I'll see you next time for sightseeing.

Likewise, I receive from Mr. Lapis the memory of the Leggles Empire, of the Imperial Capital Galleria, from Mr. Rebecca, of the Kingdom of Sandra and the King's Capital Curry, and transfer them to each country to collect the story books of that country.

The last time I bought it from a bookstore in Belfast, it turned into quite a collection of books.

"... so many books, what do you do?

He asks as Linze looks at a book piled up like a mountain on a table. There was a book that caught my interest, and I was turning to read it in pieces. Wait, this is the product for once.

In the meantime, I'll enchant "protection" on all the books I've bought. This should keep this book spotless and perfectly fine if it gets wet in the water. It wouldn't even burn in a normal fire. Maybe not if it's a magic fire.

I opened the door there and Else came in.

"I've been looking for the property, as I was told. There was just one. It's at the end of Central Street in the South Side, but the location isn't bad."

"Okay, well, let's take a look at it and then buy it there if it looks good"

"... do you even open a bookstore?

Too bad. You're not a bookstore.

"No, it's not a bookstore. That's officially a coffee shop. It costs money to enter the store, though. There's a time limit, and in the meantime, you're free to read any book in the coffee shop."

Well, that's what we call "cartoon coffee" over there. Story books are so expensive in this world. It can't be bought, but few people in the general public will have a lot. I sell cheap picture books to remember the letters, etc. There are no public libraries in this country. Although the Royal Palace has a library.

That's why you thought it would be nice to have a place where you could easily read these things. It's not just this country, I can read books from other countries. And without buying it. Shall I say "reading coffee"?

"... I see. I'm free to read a lot of books and eat… I'm going to be immersed."

I see a pile of books loaded with Linze and it snaps like that.

"So you're leaving that coffee shop to those kids?

"At first. You can quit if you find something else you want to do. If that happens, you can hire someone else."

Looks like they could cook quite a bit in the desert of Sandra, and they should be fine there. Because the main dish is not cooking, I don't think it would be a problem if it wasn't so unsavory. If we pay them from there when the sales come out, they'll earn their living.

"Let's just go check out the property"

Else and Linze were transferred to the South End.

The property itself was not bad. It was originally a lodging house, so it's a very spacious creation. The ground floor was like a liquor store, but would it be renovated and filled with bookshelves so that you could choose and read them here? Upstairs and third floors can also be used for people who want to read slowly in a private room. Set a slightly higher price for private room use.

"It doesn't seem like a problem. Let's decide here."

Sign the realtor you've called for and buy out your rights. It was never a cheap amount, but it would be okay.

Come on, we're renovating. I will. I called Wendy and the others from the mansion and asked them to clean upstairs for all but Wendy and Will (who didn't call me but Will also came).

When I say "modeling," I deform the furniture one after the other and create a fluffy sofa. The reception counter is this way, should I leave a drink here? Do you want the first floor guests to be self-service? Can I just get some water or a simple cup of tea for free? I'll take the entrance fee. Can't you just make ornamental plants… so do you want to bring some from the "garden" later? The bookshelves are on one side here in different sizes.

Should I also make some like reclining sheets? with a small table. Um, it's getting fun.

Ask Will and Wendy to arrange a pile of books out of "storage" onto the bookshelf.

Sir, I have one question for you.

Wendy asks me as she arranges the books on the bookshelf. My husband wants me to stop, but somehow she won't stop calling me that.

"Aren't some of our customers going to sneak a book home?

"Oh, I thought so, too. For example, the guy who walks into a private room and puts books in a bag or something and leaves with a face that doesn't eat anything. What are you gonna do there?

In short, are you worried about 10,000 deductions? Books are valuable here. I don't know. There's no way out of it.

"Well, will try and steal it. Let me sneak under my clothes or something."

"Me, sir?

Will looked surprised, but as he was told, he hid a book under his clothes and tried to get out of the exit. but.

"Phew!?

"Will!?

Will collapses at the exit with a weird voice. Yeah, success. When you try to take a book out of this building, the "paralysis" of the book is triggered. A further 10 meters away from the building automatically causes the book to transfer to the counter. Dimensions are that even if you can prevent paralysis with a talisman, the book will come back.

Heal the fallen Will with "Recovery".

"Surely you can't steal this"

"The one who stole it sticks out to the guards. Of course you'll never be allowed in or out again. Still, I'd like to ask Mr. Rebecca, Mr. Logan, and Will to do some security work for me when I'm in trouble. You'd better get to know him if you can. If it's really not convenient, I'll hire a guild or something."

"I don't mind. I'm going to do another request at the guild three days a week, and I'm going to guard this place for the rest of the three days."

I see. Hmm? And the rest of the day? Is that a holiday? I asked around and Will turned red and his eyes swimmed out. It's like Wendy next door is only red because of her heart.

Twisting his neck, he gets punched in the back of the head by someone. Turning around, Else stood with a frightened face.

"Still nibbling. Guess what. It's a date, date. You'll need a day or so to hang out with me."

"Whoa, sister, I don't really say that to direct balls......!

Lindsay panicked, but Will and Wendy's face became more and more red. Apparently, it's a picture star.

Well, I know how you feel. Let's not get too stuck. Leaving two people quietly starting to arrange books on the bookshelf, I deform the chair with "modeling" to create a reclining seat. Let Else sit down and adjust one by one for a comfortable shape.

"My husband can use attributeless magic. I'm jealous because I don't have any attributes..."

Will stopped his hand and looked at this one. I mean, I want you to stop calling me husband.

"Our deceased grandfather could have used unattributed magic. I knew I wouldn't inherit magical qualities."

Will sighs and begins to line up the book again. That's right. They don't inherit magical qualities. Else and Linze are one-egg twins, so the genes should be the same, but Linze has three attributes, but Else is one attribute-free.

"What was Grandpa's unattributed magic like?

Unattributed magic is personal magic. It is rare that people can use the exact same magic. It is also a magical treasure trove that is unlikely to help. Slightly soaking up the water, I can't believe it. They usually use salt.

Still interested. It doesn't seem to work, but depending on the way you think, some of them will work.

"Grandpa's unattributed magic wasn't a big deal of magic, though. It was magic that could weigh a little bit of what I touched."

"Heavy...?

"It's only going to be a little heavy. Honestly, that was unusable magic." Gravity. "

... Wait a minute. That.

"Will, can you tell me more about that magic later?

"? Fine?

The magic has tremendous potential, if I may think so. If it's magic to do something about "gravity" as its name suggests...

Well, that's later. I finished the reclining sheet in front of me and started making another one.

I have to think of it as a menu. I'd like something light to pinch. Maybe some cake or something sweet. Think about a parfait or something.
