"Mmm!"

"Oh, look. Wait, if you eat now, you won't be able to eat lunch with a full stomach?

Vihella stops the queues of flesh-seekers, the Bühne who tried to line up behind them.

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

"No, don't wait for Seto either. Let's settle down a little bit before we do the meat thing."

Ray stops Seto from trying to get in line.

To Ray's words like that, Seto cries his throat sadly.

"Uh, should I have gone in the afternoon?

Vihera nods back at Ray's words as she stops Büne trying to head to a skewered stall nearby with Seto.

"Right. It was all kinds of dangerous to take Bühne down the main street before noon."

The Rays are currently on their way to Pamidor's, where they suddenly showed up at the wheat pavilion at dusk yesterday.

He said he would make the final adjustment to match Büne's hand, so I tried to pick it up... sometimes before noon, and there was currently a smell on the boulevard that stimulated my appetite from the stalls and dining room.

I guess the number of stalls would have been a little smaller if it had snowed, but should I say raw hate, there is rarely a cloud in the sky today for winter, and the weather is what we deserve to call winter sunshine.

That's why, fortunately, there were many stalls out there.

Some of them mean adventurer leisure time, or some stalls put out by those Ray has seen in the guild.

... Unlike those who really live out of stalls, there are not many customers because they are only free.

Most of all, the adventurers are not really trying to make money and opening a store, they are only acting as leisure-time crushers.

I guess that would satisfy even one or two guests.

Some of the stalls were crazy about what they did, like selling food for one piece of gold per meal, but naturally there are no customers to buy, even if there are customers in such stalls who peek out of curiosity.

(If you say you're not interested, you're lying)

A meal of gold coins… If you don't thread the ingredients, there are stores that charge that much for a meal at Gilm.

Though mainly for aristocrats, large merchants, etc.

But now at the end of Ray's gaze is a store with a single gold coin in the stall.

It would be natural to attract interest.

The fact is, as many people pass near that stall, they look at the price shown and open their eyes, because they stop moving.

"Flesh, huh? I've heard rumors a few times in the inn cafeteria, but is it delicious?

"Right, the taster guy I ate was getting a lot better than when I first ate it. I'm probably not happy with that, so I think it's getting better over time."

"Heh... that sounds kinda funny"

"I don't know what meat they sell in other stores."

Rodrigo taught the other cooks how to make meat, as he had told Ray in advance.

But that was only basic, and it was only natural that if you didn't do your own shop's own ideas properly, you'd be buried elsewhere.

Not to mention that a golden bread pavilion exists as an ancestor after researching meatballs well before being sold, so selling out bad stuff would just be a bad way to talk about it.

(If I could, I wouldn't be able to use pizza or shark fins instead of meat... so I hope you could use dried food or something)

I had that expectation Ray, but unfortunately, no other Chinese has emerged yet but meaty.

Most importantly, it takes quite a few days for Ray to teach the udon to the full pavilion before another variation like baked udon can be made.

Beyond that, you'd expect too many other Chinese men to come out as soon as you put them up for sale.

Either way, the Rays go down the boulevard as they survive the trials for Büne.

Other smells drifting from various restaurants and stalls seduced Beaune, and Seto, but Rays couldn't beat it... while buying skewers and bread, proceeded.

You're losing at the time you're buying food, aren't you? I didn't think so, Ray, but I thought it was something I could eat while walking, and I finally arrived at my destination.

"Yeah?"

But Ray tilted his neck when he saw one carriage parked in front of the store.

Because this is the first time I've ever seen a carriage like this parked in a Pamidor store.

I'm just convinced right away.

Given Pamidor's skill as a blacksmith, it wouldn't be strange if a special request came, because I thought so.

"What do we do? Looks like a customer's coming, and wait a minute? I'm sorry to interrupt your business."

Ray nods a little thinking to Vihera as she asks.

The thing about having this dagger made is that Pamidor is only doing it out of voluntary generosity... no, out of curiosity about wanting to use silver lion material.

Of course there are some there that are closer to the blacksmith's instinct to increase his skill than ever by using purely unknown materials.

But I had this thought about interrupting Pamidor's work to get a living fund.

(Even if I said I'd pay for the dagger, they'd say no)

Given Pamidor's skill, a weapon made of Rank S monster material was inherently a job that could take any amount of money.

Regardless of the rank A monster, there are very few craftsmen who can use the materials of the rank S monster.

It would be natural to assume that the Rank S Monster itself is very hopeful.

I mean, it's not surprising that Pamidor would have asked Ray for a fortune.

However, Pamidor made no other request than to have some material accommodated in addition to his own use of silver lion material.

"Right. Wait a minute..."

Yes. The moment Ray tried to say so, anger sounded from inside Pamidor's shop.

"You're kidding me! Go home! Don't ever come to my store again!

At the same time, it sounds like punching something.

Could he have hit a customer? And for a moment I wondered, Ray, but what I heard was not the sound of beating people... but the sound of beating something hard.

Ray takes a step toward Pamidor's shop, thinking he probably hit him by the desk.

I thought it would be a bad idea to interrupt it if a deal was being made heavily, Ray, but unless something was rubbing up.

"Are you going?

"Oh.... well, I don't think Pamidor can handle it"

To Vihera's question, Ray returns it that way.

In fact, Pamidor, with his muscular and vicious face, has a degree of strength that can't be helped by adventurers around it.

If anything were to happen, it would be very unlikely that Pamidor would be harmed.

But still, in case you think about it, it was true that you should show your face.

Ray with Seto is also famous for his guilds.

I don't see anyone trying to harm Pamidor, even though such a person turned up, and there wouldn't be any more if I thought of it as a deterrent.

"Well, what the hell happened... are you guys coming too?

What happened and Ray tried to move on with that in mind, but seeing two people from behind, Vihera and Büne, and Seto following along, asks so.

Vihera laughs naturally at Ray's words like that, and Büne nods back with no expression.

Seto rings short when he doesn't like being left alone.

Deciding it was useless to say anything to one of those two, Ray heads to Pamidor's store.

(I don't think Seto is allowed inside any Michi store.)

I have some doubts, but when I decide I want to stay close at all, I don't speak any more.

As we approach the store that way, we eventually realize that there are four men in front of the store.

All four of them are muscular big men, and if they're normal opponents like you're walking around, they'll just stare at you and become frightened and unable to move.

Those four people looked at the rays approaching... but the first to go out of sight were the four of them.

If you think of it as an escort, obviously a response to disqualification.

Still, if you knew it was the Rays that came close, there wouldn't be many to blame.

Naturally, these four were people who knew more about the Rays' reputation than they were working in the Guild.

"I'm sorry, but I'll let you in."

"... Yes"

After a moment of hesitation in Ray's words, he immediately nods back.

So when the four of them pull their bodies out of front of the door, Rays, who skipped Seto, enter the store.

Only Seto doesn't go inside the store, he lies on the men's side.

When this happens, the men can't move either.

Naturally I know about Seto.

I also know that it would be safe if I didn't imitate it in a way that stimulates the detour, but nevertheless the griffon that I see up close was incredibly powerful.

"Grrrrrrrr?"

... Though Seto, who is seen in a fearful gaze, leaned his neck only strangely without looking particularly concerned.

"Oh? Is this Mr. Ray again? I'll see you in a rare place."

That's what the person who was talking to Pamidor tells Ray, who came inside the store, with a happy grin.

But just like Ray used to when he met, his eyes aren't laughing, even with a grin on his mouth.

"Right. I never thought I'd see Tris in a place like this."

Tris from the Spiel Chamber of Commerce. It was the opponent who had previously asked Ray to sell silver lion material, and at the same time was somewhat of a causal figure with the nobility who had previously been involved in Ray.

"Really? An armed blacksmith is valuable in many ways. I wonder if it would be strange for me, the merchant, to show up like this.... Oh, this is the first time I've seen you two beautiful girls."

That's what Tris tells him when he sees Vihera next to Ray and Büne looking around the store as expressionless as ever behind him.

"I'm late to say hello, but my name is Tris from the Spiel Chamber of Commerce and I'm a merchant. Thank you for the good fortune of meeting people of the same beautiful beauty as you two."

"Oh, you're good. I'm Vihella, this is Beaune."

"Mmm."

You realize your name has been called, Beaune bows her head small toward Tris.

While doing so, Bühne's gaze contained a light that doubted the other person.

Tris would naturally have noticed that, too, but he talks to Ray without looking at all concerned.

"No, no, that's Mr. Ray. I can't believe you're letting these two beautiful girls serve you."

"... I don't mean it like that"

"Oh, I wouldn't mind serving Ray, would I? Well, the beaune..."

A smiling Vihera turns her gaze to Bühne, whereas Bühne just softly misses her gaze.

That's not what I said.

"Apparently not."

"Ha ha. I'm sorry to hear that, Mr. Ray.... Well, that's about it for greetings. May I ask why Mr. Ray is here?

As usual, Ray turns his gaze to Pamidor, grinning at Tris without his eyes laughing.

"I've had quite a relationship with Pamidor. I order a lot of things because of it."

"Well, are you close to Mr. Pamidor? That's just great. His skill as a blacksmith is very high. That's why I came to buy his hit piece too...... unfortunately it didn't seem right for his glasses"

"Ha, don't say it often. You came here knowing I was being asked by Ray, didn't you?

Pamidor stares at Tris with a vicious face, as he interrupts Ray and Tris' story.

"Well, what are you talking about? Like I said now, I'm simply here to buy Mr. Pamidor's hit piece?

"Ha, you can say that a lot. Buying a piece? You just said this to me, didn't you? 'I have recently heard that we have acquired very rare material and have struck weapons with it. I'd like you to sell it if you can.'"

Pamidor's words sharpen Ray's gaze toward Tris.

Because what that rare material meant was obvious without thinking about it.

That is… Rank S Monster, Silver Lion Material.

Yes, Ray asked Pamidor, because he meant a dagger.
