From the next day, teaching Noir a job was added to my work.

I'm temporarily busier than I've ever been, but if I were to hire someone, it would be a necessary and normal process.

Nagi and Melissa, the first adventurers to hire, were doing their job right away, but that was only because they had experience working in a tool shop.

Normally, I can't do it well and it's obvious.

It is a common sense that makes no difference whether you are an arms dealer or an adventurer.

"Well, let's start with the display"

"Wow, okay..."

- In the early morning, shortly after the opening of the store, I decided to try to get Noir to do the selling work for a small number of visitors.

The product breakdown is for a crate of crates.

Not only is it used by adventurers to explore the 'Sun Clock Forest', but it is also in demand as a regular conduit for Green Hollow Town residents.

What, this is a town in the mountains.

If you go outside at all, the grass is growing everywhere.

"... ugh...!

Noir tried to lift the crate placed on the counter, but it only moved to the point where it dragged a little.

…………

…………

Try it again, but it still doesn't lift at all.

"... was it heavy?

"It's... it's okay...! See, this way......!

Noir opened the lid of the crate on the spot and began to run back and forth between the counter and the display shelf with a few pieces of litter in his sheath.

Watching him move around busily from a distance, I thought he could move like that too... and I couldn't let him hear me.

- It's after noon and I'm getting more customers' feet, so now I'll let you help me with my accounting.

Up to now, I've only been able to use half of my accounting counters, but today I decided to try and free them all up on an experimental basis.

It is a form of simultaneous change between one and two employees in charge of accounting.

Although the task is simply to charge the price as posted and give the change and goods, it is a task that is quite hurried when queues begin to form.

"When discount negotiations or troublesome customers come, call me or Garnett. If a customer wants to buy a Mithril product, it's my turn. It's a hassle to make a purchase."

"Wow, okay..."

I know from the start that the noir is vulnerable to pushing, so I'll instruct him to call it as soon as he thinks he's out of hand.

Nevertheless, I have rarely encountered troublesome guests before.

Some of the highly-ranked adventurers exploring the 'Demon King's Castle Realm' are the ones who gathered because I spoke up.

This is a well-known fact among other adventurers, who are also known to have received orders for weapons from Travis of Black Sword Mountain and the Golden Tooth Knights.

Very few adventurers really cause trouble in a place like that.

"... Welcome, no..."

Noir continues to work pale.

He seemed to do it right without panicking, but his affection wasn't surprising.

Instead of smiling, he doesn't even seem to be eyeing his visitors.

Besides, this store doesn't sell the goodness of affection, and Garnett doesn't have affection in the opposite sense of noir, but if you can fix it, you should fix it.

"Hey, Noir. I know it's pretty good, but here's some more... can't you try and laugh?

In anticipation of a broken leg, I'll throw a request at Noir.

"Wow, I laugh... like this...?

... Noir's face was so wretched.

"Something... I'm sorry. Say something unscrupulous."

"When I'm apologized, the... reverse..."

Right, this is what happens when Noir tries to laugh at you forcibly? I've never known it before.

- Eventually in the evening, the guests' feet settle down quite a bit.

I left the store to Garnett and a short-term hired adventurer, and I took Noir to one of the rooms I use as my office.

All the work we leave to short-term adventurers is done in stores alone.

Sometimes we don't have time to teach a tricky task, but more than that, there is a great deal of circumstance that we can't entrust the work involved in management.

For example, paperwork on orders and payments.

This kind of work is an area that cannot be left to short-term employment adventurers in any industry.

It's always the only work I do, so I wanted to share it with you once I hired a regular employee.

"Wow... can I do this...?

"It's getting tighter for me to do it all by myself. Of course, I'll do the final confirmation, but until then, I want to leave it to someone else."

"... there's Garnett, too. I, the…"

"I don't want to assign him any more because I always leave him with other tasks. Just do it."

Because of the notion that he works for sin, Noir had shown difficulty in taking on important tasks, but for now he pushed it off forcefully.

Noir took the pen with his troubled face, and when he spread the sample documents and blank paper onto the table - he ran the pen on the paper at a fierce speed.

In less than half an hour than I would have written, a purchase order to the Adventurer Alliance would be written up.

"... done, I think..."

"That's amazing... perfect. I'm surprised. How could you be so fast?

It's not just fast.

The letters were beautiful, easy to read, no ink seeping, and no misspellings were found.

This will multiply the work efficiency.

It's a huge harvest I never expected.

"That kind of skill... so..."

Noir clumsily began to describe the earlier quickpen in a pompous manner.

"Magic is academic... Wizards can't just get skills, they can't do it. Loading magic books... making precious copies of books... making your own research into books... [Quick Read] and [Quick Pen] are handy anyway..."

"I see... I'm not familiar with the wizard industry, but I do have images surrounded by tons of books and documents"

It was a substitute that I had no ties to, but I've often seen high prices on the Magic Book at the store.

"Even so, all the magic books were handwritten... I hear the printing press started selling if you're from the city, but you don't use that"

"Oh, I can't do that...!

Noir raised his voice uncommonly.

"The Magic Book makes no sense if the author doesn't write it with magic from his hands...! Because just physically putting ink on it makes it easy for third parties to tamper with it, and I can't describe binary ternary information by magic as well as character information...... oh my despair came back when I saw the printed version of Rose Crossroads' magic guide Zhuxian History...! The artistic writing that grants different wavelengths of magic to each item has been scraped off... that's blasphemy, brutality, genocide against the devil's guide..."

"Wow, okay, okay. Just calm down, please."

Somehow calms down the noir that shivers its shoulders with a desperate expression and speeds up what it doesn't quite understand.

I wonder if this fiercely quick-mouthed, slightly fast-chanting skill has erupted.

- Anyway, there were two useful discoveries today.

One is that Noir had a high degree of aptitude for clerical work as a by-product of the wizard's skills.

The other was that Noir had a strong commitment that I hadn't even noticed before and something like a switch I shouldn't have touched.
