"Speaking of which... the fruit of evolution, I'm getting it from the sheep"

I remembered that the moment I first got out of the guild.

I totally forgot...... Well, there's also the Black Dragon God thing and Mr. Altria, and I'm just in a hurry...

"It's more the fruit of evolution than checking in the library or buying a horse."

I think I'm the one who knows the most about the awesomeness of the fruits of evolution.

Salia has evolved, too, so you know it's amazing, but I know and appreciate the fruits of evolution more than that. How many times have I been helped...

That's why it was so important to me now that I couldn't compare to a demon king or anything.

Fortunately, I originally had business at the tool store.

That's because I wanted tools to make healing pills and stuff.

"I don't know because I need proper tools or a bottle"

Clevermonkeys are amazing because they even made their own bins.

"Uh... oh, tool shop, you're surprisingly close"

If you look at the simple map Gastle gave you, it showed the location of the tool shop not so far from the guild.

"All right, let's start with the tool shop."

That's what I decided to do. I walked out to the tool shop.

On the road, Osama from Loricon saw the girl eating sweets and was rough on her breath, but I don't care. Ah, soldier. There's a criminal over there.

But...... I didn't even care until I heard about the gustles, but if you look around you a lot, there are quite a few people in jeans or something. I guess I didn't feel uncomfortable because I didn't have too many gaps with the Earth.

Some other people are wearing clothes that seem normal on Earth.

Brave man, weigh yourself a little.

When I was on my way with that in mind, I quickly reached the tool store.

"Here."

The tool shop you arrived at is not an unusual building. It was a very normal store.

When I opened the door and walked in, there was a sloppy line of tools I had never even seen.

"Oh, you're a customer?

When I was surprised by a bunch of strange tools, my aunt came out of the back.

"Oh, thank you. I'm here to introduce Gustle."

"Ha. Well, I'll see what I can do."

The aunt laughed and said so, pulling back into the back of the store again.

... No, I have trouble being left alone!?

I don't know most of the tools there!?

"I don't have a choice... let's see"

The product has a product name and price tag, so let's imagine what kind of tool it is from a name or something.

Worst of all, you can use 'Advanced Appraisal' for your skills.

"Uh... what's this?

With that said, the first thing I had in my hand was a white sphere I wasn't sure about.

The price is 100G.

"That's affordable. So, what's your name?

I'll check your name.

"Just balls"

"Hey Cora Store Owner!

The balls! What the hell are you using it for!

No, it's quick to decide. Even if it's just a balls name, it might do something.

Yes, I told myself and tried to activate my skills.

"Just balls"...... really just balls. It can also be a cat play tool and if you hit a demon, it can distract the demon...... maybe.

"Chickshaw, it's really just balls......!

I was the fool you hoped for!

Recently, I feel I have had many opportunities to be betrayed. Mainly, Gustle, Mr. Ellis......

All of a sudden I'm tired of products that are only scratchy, but I quickly regain my mind.

"So what about this pot?

The next thing that caught my eye was a pot with a strange atmosphere.

I don't know, I think I can smell the alchemy.

Maybe that's the tool.

For a good price, I would do 100,000 Gs. Is that all that precious?

Now he activated and confirmed his skills as they were, without checking his name.

"Kettle of Happiness"...... Kettle where the owner feels happy. If it sells, the store owner will be happy.

"Soldier, come on, oh, yeah!

It's a scam! There's someone here in bad business!

Can a store like this exist!? And more than that, Gassle introduces me to the store!

Is that it? Did you introduce it because a newbie who knows nothing can look into his painful eyes and teach him a lesson!? If so, it's too vicious!

No longer had my trust in this store fallen to the ground.

But if you look around closely, there are certainly some decent products.

For example, the goods written 'paper of different worlds' were made with a papermaking method knitted by brave men summoned to this world and boasted an ease of use that was inferior in quality to Earth's things but still incomparable with parchment paper.

The price is also 500 G for 100 sheets. I'm not sure if it's cheap or expensive, but for what it's not extreme, I would still have.

There were other items called "Magic Stones," which were made using an item called "Magic Stone". Perhaps this camera idea was also conveyed by one of the brave men.

He's the guild guy, he said he'd steal it, but you were doing it with this...

There was still a lot I didn't know, but it was a waste of time watching all the time, so I looked again for the tools I needed.

Then, without any particular difficulty, I quickly found what I wanted.

"There it is. Uh... breast bowl and breast stick. Plus, give me an empty bottle... 10 for now."

To grow the fruits of evolution, I decided to buy a planter and a jouro once and for all, and the soil put in a hemp bag.

I picked the thing I wanted the whole way, and I called Obasan, who pulled into the back.

"Excuse me, can I have your bill?

"Oh? Have you decided yet?

"Yeah, well."

The response gets a little cluttered, I guess, because I've learned a lot about this store.

There's no way we're gonna talk about this, pale as hell. I did the accounting. The price was 3000G, but I still don't know if it's expensive or cheap.

Well, I hope I haven't had any trouble with the money so far.

When I got out of the store, the bustling landscape popped into my eyes again.

"Well, what do we do next?

Honestly, even if I were to buy a horse, that would be a good end.

If I bought it now, it would seem like a lot of trouble.

"Then it's the library."

I wanted to see some magic books about demon kings, brave men, and so on.

Having decided where to go next, I turned to the library while checking the map Gassle gave me.

◆ ◇ ◆

"Hmm...... big"

My first voice when I got to the library was that.

In front of me, there was a giant building, reminiscent of the famous museum on Earth.

There was also stained glass and a watch stand, which looked beautiful and very much in the city.

This is the Royal Library.

If it's this big, it looks like it could be a magic book or something.

With that in mind, as I stepped into the library, a book lined up with Biscilli caught my eye on a beautiful, extraordinary number of bookshelves inside.

Admission fees and the like don't exist in the library, but instead, they're not renting out books.

They simply publish the book to the public.

Each book has all the antitheft magic, and if you try to take it even a step out of the library, they can force you to transfer it to the location of the bookshelf where the book originated. Magic is awesome.

However, they don't have anything like reception, so if they have a book they want to read, they have to look for it themselves.

So I looked for it myself, but there were too many books and I didn't know what I was doing from the way in.

But thanks to all that hard work, I was able to find some books that bothered me.

Hold those books, I'll sit in the library seat.

Unexpectedly, not a single person took possession of a much wider library by himself.

"Okay, let's read it first."

That being said, the book I spread out was called "The Brave and the Demon King," which passed and the title stayed the same.

Like a history book, it's not difficult, it's like a story for kids, but I brought it with a single confirmation.

... Well, in the end, it was futile.

Because the contents of this story were bent like good on the human side and the Demons were portrayed as absolute evil.

What I was looking for was a fairer, third-party perspective.

Ma, I was asking for that in the first place. I'm crazy.

With that in mind, I read and fished out a book that said something about demon king relations with other brave men.

But still, there was nothing I was looking for.

Every book is evil for the Demon King and righteous for the brave.

Maybe that's the truth.

But now that I've seen the Black Dragon God's past, I'm not very much, but I didn't think so.

"Doesn't work..."

I squeal unexpectedly.

But there's only one weird thing about that.

It says here that the brave men who appear in the history books all lived in peace after they eventually crusaded the Demon King.

I read Abel the Brave, and I can't believe it.

If the contents of that diary are real, then the brave man must have been killed by the country.

"... the country that summoned the brave don't want to put it on record even if it just kills the brave"

If the brave men knew such a record in the usual applause, the wise men would escape. No one will bother accepting the fate of being killed.

"I have no choice... let's give up on the Demon King"

At least I decided not to trust the information about the Demon King by the book and about the brave men.

"Do you want to get back on your mind and see it in other books?"

The book I spread out while saying that was a book written about our status.

Until now, I have relied on the knowledge gained from games and comics about the status to convince myself, but if I look into it in detail, maybe not.

So I brought this book.

But what was written was hardly different from what I perceived.

Still, only part of the charm was a little different from my perception.

Until now, I thought charm was something that represented good looks. Of course, that's actually true, but that's not all.

Oh, my God, the atmosphere surrounding the person seems to be one of the attractions.

So even if you don't look good, if you have something to attract people to, the appeal of that person will be high.

Often, it's charismatic, but it's also about this charm.

... Is that it? So what about me if my charm was blank? That you didn't even have the elements to attract people?

Lightly caught on to such a thing, but soon came back to life.

Because the book I'm about to read is a book with magic on it. There's no way I wouldn't mind.

The title of the book, which I spread in an exciting mood, was: 'How do I use magic?' It was a thing.

Proceeding with the reading, there was an explanation from the very thing called magic.

To sum up briefly, magic is a power that can directly interfere with the world by consuming the energy of magic......

Is it important that you need magic and the ability to imagine it as a condition for activating magic?

To make that image easier to fix, a thing called chanting exists, and wizards with skills such as chant discarding and unchanging seem to be the leading wizards that it is naturally made of.

... Weird, huh? I've been using magic all over without imagining it at all.

That's why you exposed yourself to the ugliness of dropping tons of water directly over you when you were fighting Salia, right? 'Cause I don't know what magic it is.

Perhaps the reason I was able to use magic was because I had already acquired it under mastery, so I no longer needed the process of imaging it.... Wow.

Thinking about it, suddenly an inorganic voice sounded in my head.

I have mastered "Skills" Unchanted "

…………

"... ugh..."

Oh, my God...

Boulder, you just don't know your title. I don't know anything, I suddenly got a first-class skill...

I wonder if it has arrived at its own weight during the fall of the altercation.

Me with a distant eye, seriously thinking about that kind of crap.

But I understand that I'm not a normal person anymore, so I could get back on my feet pretty early.

After that, I read magic books divided by each attribute, from the beginner edition to the advanced edition to the most advanced edition. There was no magic book of purgatory attributes on boulders, though.

Among other things, what was surprising was that there was no book written about space magic.

Something about the item box, and I thought you had a book.

So the books of attributes I could read are fire, water, wind, earth, thunder, ice, light and darkness, which are basic attributes.

In the book I've read, all of the magic that was written in my books of fire, water, earthly attributes, and dark attributes was the same magic in my knowledge.

So when I finished reading the books on those attributes, I had a complete grasp of the magic I could use. Except for space magic.

"Okay. Now, this isn't gonna be the first magic dance I've ever used."

Only consuming magic has ever been known, but it even details the effects and power.

However, I don't count on the magic I use there because the power is different digits...

Thus, having finished reading the magic books of fire, water, earth, and dark attributes, I also decided to read the remaining magic books of no, wind, thunder, ice, and light attributes.

Because I can't use it now, but I might be able to use it someday, and if someone uses these attributes on them, I thought I could handle it.

Fire and water had a lot of magic that seemed highly aggressive, but wind and thunder, in one way or another, had a lot of magic in the versatile system that seemed to be applied. In that sense, wind, earthly attributes would be easy to use.

What do you care, attributeless magic was a wide range of applications. There are few ways to strengthen your body, simply float things, or attack them directly, but I think they are very powerful depending on how you use them.

Anyway, I've finished reading all the magic books of all the attributes. I think time, too, finished reading it so fast that I couldn't think of it at Earth. Is this the benefit of evolution, too?

"Phew... it's over!

It was the moment I said so, stretching my back.

"I have mastered [Unattributed Magic: Pole]. I have mastered [Wind Attribute Magic: Pole]. I have mastered [Thunder Attribute Magic: Pole]. I have mastered [Ice Attribute Magic: Pole]. I have mastered [Light Attribute Magic: Pole]. I have mastered the title [Ultimate of Magic Guidance]. Confirm that you have mastered all attribute magic at its highest state. Therefore, I have mastered skills [Synthetic Magic], [Numerous Expansions], [Magic Creation], [Engraving Magic: Polar], [Formation Magic: Polar] '

Such a merciless voice struck my head again.

…………

That's funny. Why can't I stop crying blood from my eyes?

No... right? Are you crazy? I was just reading a book. So this is it, huh?

Maybe I can't even read a book easily? Two dances of this every time you read it? Oh, the curse?

It was me who didn't have nearly as much energy left to scratch anymore, but I manage to squeeze that little energy and confirm the skills and magic I've acquired.

However, I somehow understand the magic of nothing, fire, water, wind, earth, thunder, ice, light, and dark attributes without having to check, so I will check otherwise.

'Unchanted'... without chanting, you can use magic.

"The Ultimate of Demonic Guidance" … a title sent to the Ultimate of All Attribute Magic. Magic attack power is doubled.

"Synthetic magic" … can synthesize magic between different attributes or between identical attributes to produce powerful magic.

"Majority Expansion" … Many magic can be used at the same time without being tied to attributes.

"Magic Creation"... unprecedented, you can create your own magic. Once created, it can be activated without chanting. Before we create it, we need a clearer image and we also need to decide on a name.

"Engraving Magic: Poles" … can engrave magic into swords, accessories, etc.

"Formation Magic: Polar" … You can use powerful magic, using magic formations.

"Da-me. Damn, it's not in my hand...!

I still seem to be moving away from humans.

◆ ◇ ◆

……

It was from the library. I was mentally tired.

Come on, me. What do you want, brave man? Or the Demon King? Now, I feel good about both. That's what I feel like going to the convenience store. Haha, seriously Yo-You.

Walking through the city, feeling more and more comfortable, he wore it sometime in a place like a square.

"... um, it's busy"

There were numerous dewstores lined up around the fountain where perhaps magic or some force was working.

A store that makes you smell delicious, or someone who sells huge paintings with a flashy impact. Various people sell and buy there.

"That being said, you weren't having lunch."

Because I was in the library, I didn't really understand the time, but when I realized it, it was past lunch. Still, within some time after lunch, I've read a lot of books and I think it's unusual.

"Somehow, you don't want to eat in this square with so many people..."

My mood right now is I would rather eat in a calm store than eat in a busy square.

With that in mind, as I walked in the square, I saw one shop in my sight.

Like other dewstores, they don't have solid stalls, and they don't have any customers.

I was just spreading sheets on the ground and selling something that looked like a painting.

When I was on Earth, I was only interested in art to the extent of the crowd, but for some reason, I was naturally fit for the store.

There's a girl sitting in the store. That's also the girl with the dog's ears. Probably the store owner. Ear, I want to touch it......

He was a little younger than me, and his face was cute, but now his face was sinking.

When I get to the front of the store, the girl looks up.

"Ah...... Welcome!

Then he erased the look that was sinking and gave me a cheerful greeting.

While observing the girl's condition, I will also look at the painting, which is a product.

This...

I was stunned by the paintings that were arranged there.

It's not flashy either. It's not like it's an unusual painting style.

To put it bluntly, not all of the paintings lined up looked appealing to me, although they didn't have great features.

Water-drinking bird paintings, bickering people paintings, paintings of this city dyed in the sunset, paintings of the night sky… were all paintings on the subject of triviality, in everyday life.

I saw it when I got here, D There were many people lined up at people selling flashy paintings, but not one here.

That was strange to me.

'Cause de flashy painting...... that, I didn't know what you were painting. Picasso, in being able to paint properly, was drawing up that original painting to impress people, but I didn't feel anything from that painting.

Well, even Picasso's paintings, I've seen them in textbooks, to the extent that I thought they were awesome, and I don't even think I have such a clear artistic sensibility in the first place, so I can't say anything.

"Did you draw all this?

I asked him that unexpectedly.

Then the girl was suddenly surprised that she was asked, and after opening her eyes a little, she immediately said, "Ha! answered."

Sugai...... I can't paint at all. It feels like you're younger than me...

Anyway, I was impressed with the girl's painting.

This is the first painting I've ever been interested in coming to this world and... buy one.

That's what I decided to buy the most heart-catching, sun-dyed city painting of all.

"How much is this painting?

"Huh? Uh... it's a thousand G"

Hmmm...... it's a painting, I don't know the market for extra. Is it expensive? Is it cheap?

Either way, I like it and I buy it, so I figured how much, but I wouldn't regret it.

"Then give me this painting"

"Ah...... oh, thank you!

The girl carefully wrapped the painting when she received 1000 G from me, in a very impressive way.

Next time, I'll have to buy a frame.

With that in mind, he gave me the painting he had finished packaging.

"Thanks"

Upon receiving the painting, I immediately punish the item box. I don't like it when you get hurt.

"Oh, thank you!

Trying to leave the store behind, the girl stood up and bowed down.

Sugay delighted, but weren't they selling that much? It's a good painting.

Somehow uncomfortable, I decided to look for a place to rest.

◆ ◇ ◆

"I don't have any inside..."

Away from the square, I was looking for a store where I might be able to take a break.

But the shops along the road were full of customers, not very much, but they didn't seem to be able to slow down. It's noon.

I couldn't find it, so I decided to go somewhere a little less crowded.

That, I don't want to recall, can be where that horrible homo group attacked me right after I came to the guild.

Around there, it wasn't popular, so if you look around there, you'll find about one house.

Unexpectedly, however, an unexpected light and less popular shop was found.

"'Coffee Shop Acolliente'..."

... What is Acolliente? A new breed of food?

I walked into the store thinking nonsense.

The door has a bell, which sounds like a suppressed eye. The store was a little dark and had a moody space. There is something like a bar counter, beyond which a tannic old man with gray hair stands, dressed like a bartender.

... it's a coffee shop, right? This is a bar, isn't it? I'm a minor...

Being pressured by the atmosphere in the store, it seems that there was only one customer besides me, and the person noticed me and spoke up.

"Am I right? You, don't stand there like that, why don't you come in?

"Huh? Oh, yes..."

I accidentally replied, I stay close to the bar counter.

Then he saw the face of the customer who spoke to me.

"You're the first face I'll ever see. Are you an adventurer?

The man asking so roughly turned his beautiful blonde hair upside down and wore clothes commonly worn in this world. He looked about 40 years old, but his face felt like a very cool uncle.

"Uh, I just officially became an adventurer yesterday."

"Right. I'm Lanze. Well, I'm a small citizen. Say hello."

"Oh, thank you. I'm Makoto."

"Makichi? I see, from the sound of the name, are you from the eastern country? Well, that's a little convincing, too."

"Really?

Or is it the eastern country here? Adriana said the same thing...

You looked into my mind like that, Mr. Lanze said, frightened.

"Huh? Speaking of eastern countries, you're famous for having a lot of tenacious warriors. That's why the two names" Heavenly Blade "are known all over the continent, right? Besides, they look like the brave men summoned in the Kaisel Empire, and many of them have hair close to black... I'm from a country like that, so you're dressed like that to keep me out of a lot of trouble? Or are you different?

"So, Sounandezyo! haha, hahahahaha"

Hey, eastern country! Why are you such a pain in the ass!

Besides, there are a lot of tenacious warriors...... which fighting nation!? Who is' Heavenly Blade 'in the first place!?

Right, well, being close to brunettes doesn't mean you're from the same planet as the brave guys so far, but you're from the east country and you seem to be able to get through.

With a dry grin and desperate to repair the surface, suddenly something cake-like and tea were placed in front of me.

Surprised, he opened his mouth quietly when he turned to someone who looked like a bartender.

"… this is the first time you have come to the store, it is a service to our customers"

Mecha, good voice! I can't help but overhear!?

Heavy bass, tiny but often sounding voices were very comfortable just listening. I even got a service.

Then Mr. Lanze says, laughing, was my reaction funny like that?

"Hahaha! He's doing the shop owner here, Noad."

"... it's Noad. Thank you for your continued support."

"Ah, here we are!

Mr. Noard began to wipe the dishes after a surprisingly beautiful bow.... really like a bartender......

With that in mind, I'll try the cake placed before me.

"Mmm!?"

Hey, Nanicole, it's awesome!?

Because it's different worlds, I thought the taste was very subtle, but that's not true at all. Fluffy, exquisitely sweet cream was likely to be eaten as much as it wanted, in good harmony with the sweetness and sourness of the fruit on top.

To my surprise, Mr. Noard tells me politely.

"… your cake is applying a recipe brought to you by a brave man who said he was summoned from another world. Black tea is made from Lendel leaves that are not very well known, but are flavorful and characterized by a refreshing aroma"

Yeah, I don't know Rendell, but I found Mr. Noard to be awesome.

'Cause I can't make a cake this good because I used a recipe brought in by a brave man.

Besides, as Noird said, tea enjoyed a refreshing aroma and a deep flavour with little crunch.

"Why are you so tasty, so few customers?

I know it's rude, but I couldn't help asking.

Then, for some reason, Mr Lanze replied, not Mr Noard.

"Well, there's one thing about being in a sparsely populated place, and Noah himself doesn't want so many guests. Right?"

"... Yep. I want visitors to be able to rest in this store."

"That's what I'm saying. Besides, it's me, one of the few guests, but the others won't tell anyone about this place. I want to be a hidden and famous store."

"I see..."

I don't know how that feels. It's pretty superior to know you're the only one.

I'm a little convinced, and I ask Mr. Noard what I care about.

"So what does the name 'Accoriente' mean?"

"Oh, I don't know that either. Noard, what do you think?

He doesn't even know Mr. Lanze, so he ate my question.

Mr. Noard then smiles gently and opens his mouth.

"... somehow."

"" No real reason!? "

Hamo surprises us, Mr. Noard continues.

"... for some reason, when I started the store, I came up with this name. I'm still not sure, but I don't really care because I like the sound of it either"

"Really..."

"Hmmm...... well, it sounds funny. Doesn't that make sense..."

Seeing our reaction, Mr. Noard smiled gently again.
