Miniature Garden Chemister

A cursed slaver with large numbers in the cursed slave market.

I buy slaves from one of them now, no. I'm trying to make a contract...

I'm not too familiar with it, slavery in this world unlike any slave I've ever known on Earth.

The curse is lifted when a person with the curse has been engaged in a person for five years.

For this reason, ask the curse slaver to mediate the "engagement contract” with someone like me who needs a curse slave. And then five years of service will lift the Curse.

I don't know much about the Curse, but I kind of figured out the systemic stuff.

In other words, the place of residence of the cursed slave trader is what Japan calls a dispatch agency, isn't it? The person with the curse who registered there is called a “curse slave”. The contractor is a seconded company.

That seems like a normal system when you think about it. But I'm concerned about the way you say "slave”. Why is that such a bad rhetoric...?

Three cursed slaves have been recommended by their uncle, the owner of the store.

The first is a man who looks handsome. 20 gold coins.

The second is an animal boy with cat ears and no left arm. 5 gold coins.

The third person has a narrow line? Handsome, with long forehair. 9 gold coins.

"Just to be sure... aren't there any female curse slaves?

"Oh, I knew a woman's curse slave would be good."

"Ah, Yes."

"I'm sorry, my lady was nervous, so it was my joke. I'm sorry if I made you feel bad. And there's no woman in my shop, I'm sorry."

After a little stiffness, my uncle called out to me "I'm sorry".

Or were you joking about solving my nervousness... is my father's simoneta a common world language or something? I'm tired.

"A cursed slave who can be escorted by a woman is higher than a man. Plus, some stupid adventurer who mistakes the party for Harlem is going to sign up."

"Really..."

Well, what's the matter? Honestly, I'm not used to being a man... so I was going to be a woman.... but the number of women was low as far as this street goes.

Then again, these three... no, should I choose between two because one of the handsome guys is over budget? It's the beast boy and for some reason the cheap man who can make the contract.

Thinking about the future… First, head home through the Lost Forest. Along the way, have them fight demons. I'm a backup guy. then... wouldn't it be dangerous without arms?

"Well, I know a girl would want a woman. By the way, miss, are you a member of the Merdity family? You were talking to Mr. Clef and Mr. Alfred earlier, weren't you?

When I was worried about what to do, my uncle gave me the names of Mr. Clef and Mr. Alfred. Um... I was definitely talking to you... do you know him? When I looked at my uncle with the question mark floating, he went on to give me an explanation.

"Because those two are celebrities, there's no one in this country you don't know. Earlier, when the lady said she was going to sign a contract with a cursed slave, Mr. Clev was staring at what was going on around here. You're being taken care of."

"Eh! I had no idea...! Really?

"Ouch. So no one can go weird slaves on a lady, haha! Besides, there's no danger to my husband because the curse slave contracts by magic. If you don't like it, I'll pick it up over here if it's within 3 days"

Oh, my God, before I knew it, I got backup from Mr. Clef...! Next time I see you, I have to thank you...!

I swear to my chest so, I return my gaze to the earlier Beastman boy. You have that and a pick-up period...? Is it a clean-off thing?

"I'll pick it up within three days... what do you mean?

"Oh, you don't know much about cursed slavery. If you sell a cursed slave to a customer as a cursed slave trader, you are required to have a return period of 3 days. Now, if you don't mind trying to sign a contract, if you take me to the store you signed, I can get you to pick it up in exchange for the amount you signed. However, if it is not in the same condition as when the contract was signed, of course, the same amount cannot be refunded. Of course, so is my shop. So when you buy a curse slave, you mostly buy it with momentum. And of course, Master Clev! 'Cause I can return it! Ha ha! Ah, but be careful, if you do it three times in a row, the contractor will be on the blacklist."

I see...!

There was such a system. If so, can we assume that there is a system there contrary to appearance? The same as when I bought it means no injuries or anything like that. Hmm... you worry about judgment.

As I conceived it, my uncle explained to me about the cursed slave.

"That's Singh. It seems that the village where he lived was attacked by bandits and injured. I can handle a knife with my right hand for once. But you're not very good at defense."

"Really..."

Seeing that my gaze turned towards the beast man's, my uncle gave me an explanation.

It's a sobering episode… a magnificent life that makes my life so sumptuous, Mr. Singh.

Making, you can make things different from Japan.

"Do you feel like one of these is better on a budget?

"Yes… as you can guess. And... I want to go to the lost forest."

"Oops. Ah... a lost forest in the near field? It's shallow over there, so I think either cursed slave will be fine. By the way, this one's a stick user, Ickle. Pretty strong, but... he doesn't have any left eye vision, and he doesn't really see his right eye."

"My eyes...?

So it was such an indefinite gaze.

His eyes, which are losing light, appear to be burning without power. But in those eyes that get sucked in somewhere... my gaze has been taken away.

"Your eyes... aren't healing anymore?

I crouched in front of the cage and asked Mr. Ickle softly.

He looked up a little and looked back at me. And he opened his mouth small and replied.

"The doctor says... it won't heal. I was told that the right eye that I could still see would lose my eyesight over the course of my life."

Apparently I can't hope for a full cure.

Should it be cured with a healing pill (potion)? If it is cured with it, it should be cured by now… I'm sure it cannot be cured. I don't think there's any trauma whatsoever... is it some kind of illness? I kind of think so, and the flowers inadvertently cross my back of the brain.... wondering how you're doing? But the picture of the flower God gave me, you seemed happy... Oh, shit, I'm gonna cry.

Your eyes are still visible, Mr. Ickle, and Mr. Singh. I gave my hand to Mr. Ickle.

"It may be hard to be blind, but if it's good... would you come with me?

"...! I can see with my right eye now, but one day I will be completely blind...? Still, do you mean to make a contract with me?

"Yeah. Can't you...?

"You can't do that, miss!

"Uh... Ah, Yes"

My uncle suddenly interrupted me when I was talking to Mr. Ickle. Well, sure, it's this uncle who loses money if Mr. Ickle can't respond subtly here and sell it to me.

I take nine gold coins out of my backpack and give them to my uncle.

"I did receive 90,000 lil. Then I'll have a curse slave contract, so lend me your ID. And lend me your left hand, too."

"Ah, Yes."

Whoa, I didn't know you had an ID.

My uncle put his ID on some kind of box-like device... a magic trick? I'm putting it on top of. I was instructed to put my left hand on top of it, and I follow it with great care. Plus on top of that, get only Mr. Ickle's left hand out of the cage and onto it. Then the device glowed and Mr. Ickle's left hand... no, his left pinky glowed.

"All right, now we're done with the cursed slave contract. Miss, can I explain something to you?

"Yes, please"

"Okay. Now I've written information on your lady's ID that Ikuru is a cursed slave. Now the truth is, Ickle has become the curse slave of the lady. The Curse Slave is controlled by a pattern that connects to the Master who appears on the pinky finger on his left hand. Simply put, you can't attack your husband, and if you say" order "when you say something to a cursed slave, the cursed slave can't go against it. If you turn your back, severe pain will strike your body. But don't forget, this" order "can only be used three times."

"Yeah... I'm too afraid."

"Well, it's a safety device. The pinky finger of Ichiru bears a crest made of the magic of her husband, the lady, combined with the magic of Ichiru. Check it out."

"Yes."

I grab Mr. Ickle's hand while he's in the cage, and my uncle shows it to me. If I gently glanced at Mr. Ikuru's left pinky finger, the text would float there like a ring. There are small flowers that imitate, and the grass surrounds them to protect them.

"A spell slave print takes various forms by the contractor and the spell slave. Normally it's one main line, but when it's waved or in other forms, it goes well with the contractor. When that happens, the magic of the contractor is passed through the curse slave imprint and the curse slave is empowered..."

"It's like a flower crown... cute"

"What!?

"... Huh!

When my uncle was explaining the curse slave print, I accidentally and honestly got a voice for my thoughts. You were surprised by my voice, and my uncle and Mr. Ickle both paid attention to your fingers. Stick to your pinky fingers silently and a slightly awkward silence flows. In the meantime, it was my uncle who spoke out first.

"Such a splendid cursed slave print... I've never seen it before"

"Eh?"

"Normally, only one line is called a cursed slave print. You'd be lucky if you waved a little. My lady, Ichiru seems to be destiny rather than perfection."

"Is that so...?

"Oh. And at the end of the day... for the curse slave, that's good if you can prepare a minimum of clothing and lodging. But be careful because a cursed slave can sue you for being terrible. And don't forget, a cursed slave contract expires after more than five years of service. That's when you're not a cursed slaver like me, go to a solid cursed slave shop and rescind your contract. This is because if one of the contractors goes, he can cancel the contract, so often the curse slave goes alone after five years"

I see.

You mean when you treat me badly, I get sued... Yeah, I guess I'd be a little relieved to have that kind of system, huh?

I also drop my eyes on Mr. Ickle's pinky finger one more time.

After all, there is a cute floral crown-like pattern. I guess this is really unusual because my uncle, the curse slaver, says it's the first time he's tried it.

Even though I am weak, these things have amazing results… healing pills (potions) or cultivation of herbs. And this time the curse slave print. Well, should I be lucky as it turns out?

Then we received Mr. Ickle out of the cage from his uncle and we followed the curse slave market.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Then again... I am Hinami Nanki. Nice to meet you, Mr. Ickle."

"Best wishes. … Then, I am a curse slave, so please call me" Ickle ""

"Uh... but I'm younger, aren't I?

"It's your husband."

"Hmmm... ok, icle"

"Yes."

Ickle as I walk one step forward and follow behind it in silence.

Honestly, I'm pretty nervous. 'Cause I was thinking of buying a girl curse slave. It's kind of like having an idol next door.

Yes, it's rice at a time like this...! Just fine, the fixer gets eyes about 3 meters away. Speak up to Ichiru and enter the store.

Large windows in a wooden building. The bright room was full of people.

"Now, what shall we eat? … eh?"

What kind of phenomenon is this? I can't move standing behind me with Ickle sitting.

If I turned my back with a troubled face, he looked like Ickle had a question mark on his head.

"Ikuru... it's dinner, so take your seat."

"O… I am your husband's cursed slave. I can't believe I'm in the same seat."

"…… about seating?

"… Yes"

I feel a little frustrated and my voice is a little low.

But shouldn't a curse slave take the same seat as his husband? If you have such manners, eat shit! You felt a slight tingling sign of me, Ickle, looking sorry.

"Uh... I'm sorry. I live alone in the woods and I don't have much common sense."

"No……"

I was wondering what the problem was, but for now, I'd like to order the recommended meal of the day for two. Then I looked surprised. Are you surprised you asked for Ickle's share...?

It's not like I regret it, but I think it's too much of a cursed slave in my hands after all. To see Ickle's reaction, it doesn't seem that the treatment of cursed slaves is such a good treatment… When that happens, I don't think I can do the general common sense of cursed slavery... I want to deal with it normally. Is this Japanese quality?

"First... I want to talk to Ickle properly"

"Talking?

"Yeah. I did sign a contract in the form of buying you... but I'm not going to treat you like the general common sense of a cursed slave that Ikuru knows. Well... I don't know what common sense is, but you can't take a seat at the store, you can't have dinner with me."

"Your husband is... kind."

"And that tone. One way or the other... when I was in the cage, the talking was the ingredient of the equine, right? I want you to talk to me."

"... Orders, Your Majesty?

"No. Please!

I also feel that Ichiru is pulling slightly on my staring gaze, but I can't pull it here. Instead, I just have to push as much as Ickle can pull me dong...! The conversation continued for a while, and the circle broke for 1 minute… 3 minutes… 5 minutes. It is my great victory...!!

"Okay, I'll do what your husband says."

"Hi-na-mi!

"… Hinami-sama"

……

"No matter how much you stare, this is the limit."

Actually, it is fine to call it off, but it is still because it is a cursed slave or it seems to be a limit in icru, so I pull back a lot. Compared to earlier, I'm afraid the method is forced but much progress has been made. And, we decide to go with positive thinking.

The food was brought in while we had that exchange. Looks like today's lunch is fried chicken with vegetables. Happy to eat meat yesterday for the first time in 2 years and still be able to eat meat today.

Explain your plans for the future to Ichiru while the two of us have a delicious fixed meal. He looked frightened when he needed an escort home. Yeah, I'm sorry about something.

◇ ◇ ◇

After meals head to the weapons store on Ikuru and Boulevard.

Of course, to buy Ikuru's weapon.

The sword motif enters the weapon shop with a sign that is simulated, and I raise my voice unexpectedly to its awesomeness. 'Cause I can't normally go through walking into a weapons store like this.

There were swords and canes hanging on the walls, as well as bows and arrows. A tall sword rested on the wall - the sword there had been placed in a box attached to the wall.

I go straight to the box where the stick is standing. Ickle follows behind it, looking seriously at the stick. The price is… 1,500 lil for the lower price. I can't reach the expensive ones, but I think I can manage to buy them up to about 10,000 lil.

"Ickle, are weapons good with sticks?

"Yes, with a stick, please"

"I don't know what's good about me, so Ikuru picked it out? The budget is 10,000 lire."

"… Yes"

I tell him the budget, and Ikuru has the stick in his hand. Honestly, it all looks the same to me, but does it look different to Ichiru? All I can tell is that the design is different.

Look behind Ickle in choosing a weapon while relieving him that he can finally go home. I mean, I honestly don't know what it's like to have a contract with a cursed slave. Well... slow down, let's do it myself.

When I was convinced of one, Ickle turned around with a stick.

"Decided?

"Yes, this way please."

"Ok."

The stick Ikuru chose was 7,000 lil.

I don't know if you've kept me from using it full of budget, or if this stick is really a good one. I was just a little happy that Ickle picked it out for me. Well, because I can't... let's not worry about it there.

I paid for it and when I went outside, the sun was already completely tilted.

"Dear Hinami... It's dangerous at night, so I was wondering if tomorrow morning would be a good time to leave the city..."

"Oh well...! I forgot it would take a little over half a day to walk to the woods..."

By the way, shopping today.

Fried potatoes = 100 lil

Cursed Slavery Contract with Ickle = 90,000 lil

2 servings of rice = 300 lil

Ikr's Weapon = 7,000 lil

97,400 lil total

3,600 lire remaining

With some anxiety about the rest of the money, Ickle and I started walking to find an inn.

Or, well. Inn...? Yeah, Inn is good. No, that's not the problem...! The fact that Ickle is my cursed slave doesn't mean we live together...?

Yes, that's right...! Silly, silly! My idiot!! Why didn't I realize this was so important...! That's right, it's not the lamp sperm that comes out if you call it...

Ah... Shit. I did it. Even though there is a return period, if I do that, I will be the worst person to treat Ichiru as... a curse slave as a thing. I just don't like that... When that happens, we just have to stay prepared and live together.... Well, fortunately, we can build more rooms, and I'm sure we'll be fine.

Besides, such a handsome guy gives me... I can't think of anything at all. Yeah, it looks fine.

……

Still... walking in silence is hard.

No, because, you know, I rarely walked with a man, so I got nervous! And Ikuru is handsome... and we're going to live together for once. I kind of found a building with a house sign a little bit ahead of me. Probably an inn.

"Ickle! Let's go in there"

"Yes."

A slightly larger building with cute brick making, facing the boulevard. Yeah, weirdly, back street inns, that kind of thing is scary.... and I don't know that much about this [Letty Threel] I think. 'Cause even though it's a bit of an unusual system called Slam or Curse, it's this world with slaves, right? I think Inn is a good place to put safety first...! Never!!

When I opened the door, I said, "There you are!" My aunt greeted me lavishly. Oops, the view of the inn was so cute that my fancy aunt didn't expect it and I was a little surprised.

"Are you staying?

"Yes, I'd like to ask for one night, how much?

"We're 2,000 lil a night with breakfast."

"2,000 lil...!

"We're a little expensive because we're on the surface. If you go to the back street, there's 500 lil or something and it's totally cheap... what are you gonna do?

Hmmm... nothing to do, possession is 3,600 lil. This will only allow me to stay alone. I guess it's a good idea to give up and find a different cheap place to stay. Well, my only possession is the money I got for buying out my recovery pills (potions)... right? Yes, Mr. Clef thanked me.

I take the bag out of my backpack and glance softly at the contents. I thought it would be rude to check right away, so I left it in my backpack. Inside there were 5 gold coins… 50,000 lil. Hey, this... too many, right?

But well... it would also be rude to return what I received, so I will thank you for using it.

Holdings 3,600 lil

Mr. Clef's gratuity, 50,000 lil.

Total 53,600 lil

"No, please stay for two"

"Yes, thank you. Do you mind if I double the room? There's a twin for once."

"Uh, I'm good enough for the Curse Slave Room, right?

"What, are you a cursed slave? It's 200 lil per person for a cursed slave room."

Curse Slave Room...? I wonder.

What I can hardly tell is that you can't do it there. Because 200 lil is cheap, right? That's a tenth of my lodging, isn't it?

"No, one room at a time please...!

"Oh, yeah? All right. That's 4,000 lil."

I gorgeously pass through Ickle's words with my through skills and pay my aunt for two. I don't care about Ickle's subtle gaze. Receive the change and receive the room keys.

"There are two corner rooms upstairs. If you need anything, come to the front desk."

"Yes. Thank you."

I head upstairs as I get a little tense in the Inn of the Other World. The first floor was brick built, but the second floor seems to be used mainly for wood. The smell of wood is pleasant.

I get to the two corner rooms and am a little worried about what to do after this. Do you want to talk to Ickle a little more, or do you fall asleep like this because you're tired? But honestly, I'm more mentally tired, mainly with contracts with Ickle... okay, let's go to sleep.

"I'm tired, so you're going to bed now, right? Ikul rest in his room, too?

"Ah... yes. I understand."

"Let's talk about it all tomorrow! Good night, Ickle."

"Yes. Good night, Hinami-sama."

I wave to Ikuru, who hasn't lost a little respect yet, and I go into the room. Wooden desk and chair, then one bed. Few things, but clean and beautiful rooms. It was just expensive!

In the meantime... write a replacement diary before you take a bath. 'Cause I'm confident I'll go to bed when it warms up.

Turning the exchange diary page, I was thrilled to see the new and increased items.
