"Right here!

A cheerful boy's voice echoes all around him.

To the boy's voice, Ray sees the store in front of him.

Not to the back street...... but that store, which is built securely off the boulevard, looks frigid to see.

Nevertheless, it is more than this store that the stall owner told me and the children showed me, this store in front of me is what Ray was looking for... it is definitely a store that sells potions of sorts.

"Okay. I'm gonna do some shopping, so you guys stay with Seto."

"Wow!"

To Ray's words, the boy in leadership looks happy.

Following such a leadership, the others looked equally happy.

At first, some of the children were scared of Seto, but in the midst of being guided this far, Seto played with the child as he was doing in the Guild.

As a result, the scared child had also turned into the perception that Seto was not now the one to be scared of, but a friend who would play with us.

Around here, the kids must have been the reason I was able to handle the ad hoc.

"Phew, Seto is amazing after all"

Vihera squeaks when she sees Seto, who quickly became friends with her children.

Ray also agreed with that opinion, so watch as he walks with the kid on his back...... after about thirty seconds, he decides to go inside the store.

"Welcome"

Heh.

Speaking up the moment he entered the store, Ray was just a little surprised by the clerk's speed of response.

At times like this, it is not uncommon for some stores not to speak up in particular unless the clerk doesn't notice the customer, or seems to have money because he sees it, even if he does.

... Most of all, Ray, who is deluding the awesomeness of the dragon robe with the effect of concealment and only looks like an apprentice wizard, is wearing a thin coat that makes the other side look transparent and looks like a dancer or a whore.

Whatever Ray is, it's not strange if the latter is judged to be a superior with money.

(But I guess the primary cause was the noise on the table)

Now and again, I can hear the children playing with Seto all the way inside the store.

With that in mind, it's not a hard story to see a clerk have someone in front of the store.

Ray decided that the clerk must be a good person to have spoken out in such circumstances.

"Let me ask you something, this is a store that sells magic items, right?

"Yeah, of course. There's a lot going on. What kind of things are you looking for?

Ray's appearance did not imitate an insult - although he was blinded by the beauty of Vihera and her body - and Ray likes the person he asks even more.

"My biggest purpose is potion. It's just in the store... Then the residents here may have trouble, so just sell it all."

"... what?

Exactly was the word that came out of Ray's mouth unexpected, the clerk opens his mouth wide to show how flashy he is.

Though, normally shopping like Ray...... that's why it's rare for people to go to stores and shop like 'Everything from here to there', so maybe the reaction is natural.

And to the surprised clerk, Ray takes another blow to the chase... no, he releases a word.

"Aside from the potion, there is something special...... I would like to buy a rare magic item, do you have any suggestions?

"Uh, the..."

Even after a few decades of Ray's words had passed, he was a clerk who couldn't return them to me due to so much shock, but still, after a minute or so, he would finally be able to say the words.

"Anyway, the recommended magic item would be quite a price for all the potions to sell..."

Can I pay? and was a clerk asking Ray in the dark, but Ray puts five white gold coins taken out of the mistering, on the counter.

"Huh!?

The clerk was surprised at the white gold coin that suddenly came out...... but the next moment Ray put a piece of light gold coin on the counter.

"Huh!?

At the earliest, the clerk is completely surprised and voiceless.

Something more expensive than selling magic items naturally becomes quite expensive.

In fact, magic items such as a few pieces of white gold were also sold to this store.

But such magic items are natural, but not so easy to buy, and most importantly, I guess you didn't think that someone like Ray would easily put a substitute such as white or light gold coins.

Now if the clerk had eyes to spot magic items, he might have noticed Ray and Vihera's gear, but unfortunately this clerk does things like selling magic items, but doesn't have eyes like spotting their quality.

I guess that's why I didn't think Ray was such a good customer.

Nevertheless, this is not surprising.

If this city is on the periphery like Gilm, or in a city like Wang Du, some clerks would have quite an appraisal eye, but this city is not something to highlight, it's really just a city.

There was no doubt that the clerk's eye-catching skill was never higher than being a store in such a place.

"So, can you bring me as much potion as I can buy? I think I just told you, it's just the kind of amount that people in this city don't have trouble with."

If I told you to bring the potion because of the rush earlier, that might be the way to bring all of the inventory in this store.

That's what I thought, Ray, I'll tell you again, you don't have to bring it all.

"Yes. Please wait while I bring it."

That's what I said, clerk heading to the back of the store.

This would mean that there are only two Rays and Vihera in the store, but I'm not alert to getting the magic items stolen... or around not thinking that much about the shock, as a Ray, I get frightened.

(No, village or whatever, this is a pretty big city, and you do that?

While I think so, it's actually never unusual for me to be like this as a Ray.

I was in Japan before I came to Elgin.

Where Ray lived was in the country, and that's the only place he would lock up at night or so.

When I went out during the day, the keys were often left open.

So while you're at it, it's not uncommon for someone to come home and leave your hemmed food inside the front door when you're not there...

Or, if it's a store, when the store owner is out on some business, let the store handle a little bit of it.

I grew up in a place like that, Ray, so I've been surprised when I saw things on TV like locking up when I leave the house to throw away garbage.

"Aren't you a little careless?

Vihera also thought the owner's attitude was inadvertent, so she grumbles.

"It was all of a sudden, didn't it surprise you over there? Besides, this city is a piece of evidence, right?

Whatever the place is like a village, this is a bigger city than that.

I'm pretty sure there are quite a few people who should call themselves bad guys than they are, but I guess I thought so too, that there's no particular problem here in that sense.

Or maybe there's just no such obvious bad guy around this store.

(Though, this is a store that sells magic items. If you think about it, I don't think it's weird that you're coming by thinking about something bad)

Basically, magic items are expensive.

No, although some of them are commonly used and there are magic items that you can buy even if you're not the one who makes money like an adventurer.

That's not what adventurers use, and the cheap potion that the general public uses instead of wound pills sells quite a bit.

I want Ray, though not like the kind of potion that ordinary people use.

"Thank you for waiting! It's the first minute!

With that said, the clerk brings a box from the back of the store.

There are a good number of potions in that box, and I can say enough to satisfy Ray.

To say this is the first minute would mean that there are still many other similar potions.

For Ray, it helps that he sells all this potion.

It helps, but if there's anything like bringing all the potions that are still in the store, that's what I'm thinking, like I said the first time, I'm also bringing potions for use in this city.

"A lot of potion helps, but I guess I'm really okay with this city's share? I'm sorry we missed all the potions here, but it's our fault.

Later, when, for some reason, the potion used in this city was gone, an adventurer named Ray... an adventurer with a deep red alias bought it away, so it's hard to be told that it's not in stock.

That's what I was thinking, but the clerk smiles and opens his mouth saying there's nothing wrong with Ray's words.

"It's okay. Because there are pharmacists in this city who are good at making potions."

"... maybe I'm sorry to say, but if you're such a pharmacist, shouldn't that be the place to work where you need more potion?

Vihera mouths such questions, but the clerk opens his mouth with a subtle look.

"Um, right. The pharmacist makes potions at great speeds, but that's where the effect is. Yeah, well, of course not for adventurers."

"I see. But even in potions like that, I think there are some guys who want it quite a bit."

In a neighborhood like Gilm or a labyrinth city, you need to pack as little as you can, so you can't imitate things like carrying lots of potions there.

Unless you have mistering like Ray, but naturally such a person can't be gobbling around.

"It's okay. This isn't the only place that sells potions. As you can see, I have quite a few in stock, so I'd like you to buy them if you can."

"That's well, if there's nothing wrong with this city, and you're selling it with it, I'd be happy to buy it... are you sure?

"Yeah, of course. Buy it all."

To put it mildly, I don't really trust Ray for the lightness of his attitude, but if he still says so much, he snorts.

"Okay. Then sell me everything you can."

"Thank you!

To Ray's words, the clerk bows his head hard.

If you try being a clerk, I guess Ray is a better customer than this.

If I sell all the potions I can, I'll have less stock in the store, but when I do, I'm just talking about purchasing something else.

More than that, the option of not selling here did not exist.

"Well, there's more to it than this, so I'll bring you some. Please wait a little longer."

That's what I'm saying, I'm going back to the back again.

When Ray drops off such a clerk's back, he checks the contents of the potion in the box.

The potion in the bottle can never be said to be of high quality compared to the kind sold in the gilm.

No, I'd say Ning Loo low quality.

However, given the periphery but therefore the abundance of materials, and the gathering of skilled alchemists and pharmacists for it, the difference in quality was natural.

Moreover, even such potions are quite resilient, so they are well used.

"Right there."

That's what Vihera tells me when she peeks into the potion Ray is watching.

Vihera has also worked as an adventurer since her departure from the Bestian Empire.

Naturally, it is not uncommon to buy a potion of its own kind, and I have eyes that just spot its quality.

Even in the eyes of such a vihella, I guess the quality of the potion was something like that there.

If it's not a crude product that you hesitate to buy, it's not about spending a lot of money or the high quality that you want to buy... just tell me, it's worth the price.

No, I haven't heard the exact price yet, so I don't know if it's worth the price.

"I think this store was a surprise hit, what do you think?

"As for the potion, maybe, but the other magic items aren't going to really stimulate Ray's interest, are they?

To Vihera's words, Ray looked around the store... convinced.
