Episode 17: Buying a House
My consciousness came up as soon as I took a nice morning sun and I woke up.
When I opened my eyes, Ferris had a face there. They were peeking into my face.
Surprised that I woke up suddenly, Ferris moved to the corner of the room to escape.
"Good morning, Ferris"
"... oh... hey... ya"
In the House Spirit, said to be faceless, Ferris appears to have loosened his expression only slightly. No, maybe I just feel that way.
I wake up and I don't know if it stinks or if I don't like watching Ferris the whole time, but Ferris disappears just like that.
"Is it better now that I can just say hello..."
Get dressed and leave the bedroom and head to the kitchen. To make breakfast with ingredients I bought at the market yesterday. Exactly. I can't rely on game-era items forever.
Remove the eggs and bacon-like meat and cook in a frying pan.
Magic stoves dominate in this world, and of course there are in this mansion. It can be used by incorporating ore that accumulates magic and using magic. It may be ecological in the sense that it can be used repeatedly.
With that in mind, I prepared and transported the dishes I could to the dining room.
Hands in front of the dish at a table just for one before eating.
I haven't even finished redeeming my Adventurer Guild yet. For a little while I wanted to find out about this city, about the country, etc.
"Ferris, are you there?
When I speak in my own room, nature and Ferris reveal themselves.
"I'm going out today, but I'm going to do some research for the time being. I won't be free for a few days."
Ferris nodded, letting my cheeks loosen just a little to my words.
After breakfast, check the contents of the dimensional storage (storage) and kill time.
I only know the name, but there were things that I didn't actually look at about the effectiveness of, and I don't remember everything about the contents of the unnecessary warehouse.
... You were right to have other than Mad Warrior (Berserker) gear... Before you do that, I'll put you in a warrior position...
With that in mind, I grasped the contents.
It will be before noon and we will head to the commercial guild. I told Ferris that I would be back in the evening, and I also asked him to take care of Kokuyo.
Once inside the commercial guild, the young sage (Natalie) already had a meeting with Sammy.
When you find out about me, you smile.
"Toya, over here."
Good morning, Mr. Toya.
"Good morning, Natalie, Sammy"
When I got to the empty seat, Sammy started explaining.
"So that mansion gives way to Mr. Toya... I get it. Please wait while I bring you the document for the change of name."
Once Sammy took his seat off, Natalie put four books (...) on the table.
"This is what I promised. I don't think I can use one yet..."
"You'll find it hard. Now..."
"Thank you for waiting!
In gratitude, Sammy came back with the paperwork.
"Then can we both sign this? And we charge 50,000 gills as a commercial guild as a fee for renaming."
I put five silver coins on the table, wondering if it was like a brokerage fee when I was in Japan.
And he wrote his autograph on three contracts with Natalie.
"Now the mansion is not your lord's. Sometimes it's a treat at the mansion."
"... every once in a while..." I'm not gonna let you out, am I?
"Muggu... no..."
Natalie doesn't seem to forget yesterday's flavor, depressing one.
Sammy continues to explain, even as she leans her neck towards an exchange that only the two of us can understand.
"Okay, I'll charge you a commission. One of these documents will be kept in a commercial guild. It will be necessary to manage the building."
Commercial guilds kept one of the three pieces and were given one each. Sammy goes inside the counter again with the paperwork.
And he came right back.
"This concludes the process of renaming"
"Well, now I'll be excused."
I stand alone, but it was stopped by Sammy.
"Mr. Toya, Mr. Toya still has procedures..."
I've already finished the name change, and I bet I didn't ask for anything else......
I'll take my seat again.
"You will have to pay the taxes on the mansion because you will have purchased the house. land asset tax."
… taxes……. I lived in Japan for rent, so I never paid for it, but you did say that when your colleague bought the house.
I didn't think I had a choice, either, and I nodded.
"Then for this year's sake, - 2 million gills, please."
"?!... 2 million gills!? Is it that expensive..."
I get up unexpectedly at that amount.
If I can't pay, I'm lying. And I feel too expensive. No... I don't know the market, but if it's that mansion, is there no choice?
"You're usually surprised, aren't you? But it's not a big deal to anyone who maintains a mansion of that size... Until now, Natalie has paid for it."
"Bye. Nobody could live there, so the rent wouldn't even come in... It drowned out the deficit. So your Lord recognized you by the Spirit of the House (Ferris). Just great."
Natalie smiles.
150,000 gills a month if you borrowed it, 1.8 million gills even if you borrowed it for a year. If that's what you buy, you need to pay 2 million gills a year in taxes.
One conclusion came after thinking about it.
"- Fooled..."
I drop my shoulders disappointingly. Sammy ran after me even more.
"If, even if you wish to buy or sell, you cannot enter into a contract of sale unless the house Spirit recognizes that it is a house inhabited by the house Spirit. In Natalie's case... Um... I signed a contract quite a while ago, so it seems there were no such terms at that time..."
For decades, houses that landlords could not recognize were finally recognized and decided by the house spirits.
I don't think it's going to be easy to find my next landlord.
Besides, I like Ferris too.
I gave up and put two gold coins on the table.
