About a week after Yoku Bahr left the village.

Having settled down after everything, I was slowly enjoying my afternoon tea with Lorea and the others.

It was in there with the stuff my master sent me, with Maria's handmade tea treats.

Very delicious treats not available around here are also very popular with Lorea and the others.

But you can be a little shy, right?

Because it is rarely edible.

"Now you can finally relax."

"Right ~. But, Mr. Sarasa"

"Yes?"

"Even before that merchant came, he was pretty bummed, wasn't he? It wasn't long before Hell Flame Grizzly came out of the woods or Sarasa."

"... you can't deny it. I wish I could alchemy."

When I sigh, Mr. Iris throws another cup of tea sweets into his mouth, pacling and pointing out with a grin.

"It was the manager who decided to face that merchant, wasn't it?

"'Cause we're all gonna put our hands up against each other."

"Sure, but... you don't have any regrets, do you?

"You didn't. In total, it's more profitable."

"Big... the manager hasn't made a lot of money on this one? You don't use fangs the way you told that merchant, do you?

Honest Lorea rounds her eyes to Kate, who says with a slight deliberate grin.

"Oh, was that a lie?

"I'm not lying. Because there are definitely ways to process it into magic crystal stones."

However, it is very inefficient.

From the fangs of ice tooth bats that specialize in cooling, the best advantage of this is that they remove the "cooling” part and turn it into a generic Demonic crystal stone, so to speak, something like "melt ice and make water because you need water”.

We need the cost to melt it, and if we use this demonic crystal stone to make the smelter Artifact, like a cooling hat, multiplier don. It is an outrageous waste.

So it's basic to use ice tooth bat fangs as they are.

The problem is that if I don't have that much use, I don't have a seller, but this time I pushed a good part of it on my master.

The King's capital, far from here, can be quite a few.

That's why I hitched a ride to send ice tooth bat fangs, and I also sent most of the ice tooth bat fruit.

And after a while it was sent back a large quantity of alcohol and gold coins, besides Maria's treats.

The drinkers have already brought it home with great joy.

"I mean, you made a lot of money, didn't you?

"I won't deny it"

Ice Tooth Bat Scatter, Priceless.

Sale of fangs, money jarring with some increase in the market.

Tooth buyout, overwhelmingly cheap to buy and beat.

Sell the fangs you bought and beat, discount them by a few percent over the market and push them against your master.

Clarified, a pile of gold coins I'd never seen before.

"Er, what do you do, that money"

"I'm an alchemist, so I'm planning on buying a lot of materials, but most of them are on loan."

"Lending?"

"One to Mr. Dillall. Look, Mr. Dillall's house, you started building more."

"Right...... hmm? Is that the manager?"

"Yes, this time we've asked the collectors to help us, so it's a partial reduction"

I pay my daily allowances and fees properly to those who cooperated directly with me, so my contribution in other respects, that's the expansion of the Inn.

There seemed to be a good number of collectors who were in trouble because the inn room was full and they couldn't even enter the dining room, so they invested to get rid of it.

The truth is, I thought I'd give you the money to build it, and Mr. Dillall said, 'Exactly. I can't take that!' So I solidified, loans.

I decided to lend it without interest and have it repaid one by one with the profits that came out of the newly built building.

"Others are the alchemists who were the victims of Yorke."

Exactly because I'm hard to move directly, I co-offered money with Mr. Leonora, who made a profit on this one as well as I did, and I bought and beat the claims Yorke has.

I guess he didn't want to die either.

With the time limit looming, he slammed quite a bit on the rows and bought out all his claims... Apparently.

I don't know because I'm not present, but Mr Leonora and Mr Filione, who came back from the negotiations, had a very good smile on their face.

As a result, he survived safely... what do you think?

Mr. Leonora said, "Maybe a little short."

"Really? So there's not that much money in this store anymore, is there? I'm relieved. I thought the floor would fall out."

As for Lorea, it seemed more important that she "spent the money," exhaling deeply with a relief look on her face.

"Lorea, don't exaggerate -"

"I'm not exaggerating! Me, I was trying to stay away from the room where the money was!

Lorea almost collapsed, didn't she?

... What happened when I saw when I had the most money?

"The manager is sweet. Those people are pathetic, but it's not like the manager's throwing personal property."

"Uh, because you were a new alchemist. I don't think of it as" every other person. "

It was surprising that there were more people than expected.

"But the“ newcomers ”are all older than the manager, right?

"Well, that's right. You're older than Mr. Kate. Because we have a store."

I set up a shop as soon as I left school.

Normally, I train in other stores for a few years, save money, and then set up a store.

"But I didn't lose anything, did I? Because now it's with those alchemists, me and Mr. Leonora. Huuuuuuuuuu..."

"Ah, another bad grin..."

"It's okay, Lorea. 'Cause that wasn't such a bad idea."

"Right, you're the manager."

To Lorea's words, Mr. Iris and Mr. Kate shrug their shoulders with a bitter smile.

"Well, that's not true, is it? I'm going to pay my debts properly, and in some cases, I'm going to ask a lot of questions that I can't."

"Really? How much interest do you plan to have?

"... so far, I haven't thought about it"

I don't have any money, Peppy, and I'm telling you, you can't take it, can you?

So far, I've been struggling.

"In the first place, do we need the immature alchemist in that part of the world to hear the impossibility? The manager. You'd have a master in trouble, wouldn't you?

"... yes"

I'm trying not to beat that alchemist in the first place. Me.

"Good. I knew you were Mr. Sarasa."

I said nothing more to Lorea's smile and hid the teacup in her face.
