The Novice Alchemist’s Store

023 Money Factories (1)

"Master, is that so? Uh-huh."

To me roaring in arms, the strange looks are Lady Adelbert and Mr. Katerina.

"Master of Lord Sarasa? No matter how many alchemists, for an amount that's so easy to give out... wouldn't it?

"That's Adelbert, the manager's master is a master class alchemist."

"Oh my God!"

Sure, a master would normally have that amount of cash, and if it's not the master class, or when he's more than some alchemist and holds a lot of cash, it's not an amount he can't give out.

Of course, I can't do it right now.

"If you ask me, I can handle it, maybe..."

Maybe I said, 'I even owed you money!' If you cry, say even one of the sarcasms and take a light place on your shoulder, 'I'll work for free until I'm done giving it back!' and will take you back to the Wang Du store.

Seems like he's been recognized as an apprentice for once?

However, for the sake of someone I know...... I wonder?

"I promise I will return it. I'm very sorry to ask for more in a position where I already owe a lot of money, but could you please, please, please! You're right!

"Mr. Store Manager, please!

Mr. Iris and Kate lowered their heads so that they could put their foreheads on the table.

Next to that, Mr. Adelbert and Mr. Caterina are confused about what's going on and are unable to decide what to do.

Well, for both of you, I'm the guy you just met today.

The relationship is too thin to ask me to lend you money, and the amount is huge.

And while I was worried about the response, Master Adelbert shook his head and spoke to Mr. Iris and the others.

"Iris, Kate. You must be bothering Lord Sarasa. Keep your head up."

"But Father, you've already relied on us..."

"I don't know anyone with money, we do. Because we only have a relationship similar to our own."

Katerina says she's pretty much without a lid, just like Iris said.

"Mmm."

"Mom......"

Well, I'm in trouble.

If I do my best to ask for it, the master may lend it to me, but it's too big a sum, and I can quite deduct asking you simply to lend me the money.

At the very least, I'd like to keep it to the point where you would buy a normal amount of ingredients, like when you're an ice tooth bat fang.

And the most efficient way to make money is to make money in the main business rather than doing unfamiliar things.

"You don't have to borrow money from your master, you can't handle it. But you don't."

"Is that true! What's the plan?

Mr. Iris reacts instantly to my words, and I whine and say what I think.

"Mr. Iris. I'm an alchemist, and Mr. Iris and the others are collectors. What's your job?

"- A collection of materials! No, but with a forehead that I can handle... the lava lizard material was higher than I thought."

"Dear Mom and Adelbert, if you finally call your dad and do it all together..."

"Still, it would normally be tough just to collect the material. But if you can get valuable material, that's not the case. Don't you have any idea?

"Precious material......?

"... Mr. Store Manager, no way, Salamander?

"Correct! If you get that one, you can have the money just to repay your debt. The problem is with the seller, but you can do something about it if you ask your master."

Although it will be sweet again, it is obviously easier to say the latter simply by saying 'lend me some money' and 'buy materials that are difficult to sell'.

Besides, my master tells me to send "rare materials," so I think if it's a salamander level, I'll have enough of those glasses.

If they say, "I can't buy it," then I'll cry, "I sent something rare."

"But Mr. Store Manager, we were talking about a very unrivaled, dangerous opponent, weren't we?

"That's right. I know that Salamander is dangerous. Not very much, but with permission."

"Yeah, Kate's going somewhere like that... I'm worried"

I instantly shook my head at Master Adelbert and Katerina, who seemed anxious, to say the slightest.

"Of course, I'm not telling you two to fight Salamander. Mostly because it's suicide."

"Then... maybe the manager? If you're the manager, you can defeat the spa..."

Mr. Iris peeps at me like you'd expect...

"No, I can't handle it alone either. However, I have something like my wife...... so if someone can support me, maybe I can figure it out? I'm going to check with my master."

If it seems okay to ask your master, it's worth trying.

Already Master Adelbert doesn't seem to intend to marry Mr. Iris and Howe Barr, either, but that's why I don't like Mr. Iris' house crumbling.

You want to help as much as you can, don't you?

We got along because of this.

"Hmm, the alchemist's hand? Is that not a problem for Lord Sarasa to use? I appreciate you thinking about us..."

"That's no problem. I just want someone to bring me back safely and, if possible, to support me when fighting salamanders because I'm going to be a little incapable of moving after I use them. I don't think it's impossible for one person, but if we're going to make it safer,"

"Mr. Store Manager, is that like when Hell Flame Grizzly?

I shake my head to Kate, who looks anxious, remembering that I've been unable to move properly for a few days.

"No, it's better than that. You'll be able to move after a while, so in the meantime, you'll have no problem just protecting me."

At that time, it was really hard.

I can't even go to the bathroom on my own, so I have a lot of problems... No, let's forget it.

That is something that should be erased from the memory of all of us.

"Is that okay with you? If we can kill Salamander properly, we'll need people to bring that material back, too, right?

"Then I'll raise my hand, too. This has to do with our roots. We can't just leave it to Mr. Sarasa."

In my words, Lady Adelbert and Mr. Caterina immediately offered me...

"If possible, I'd like to ask Mr. Iris and Mr. Kate. How about that?

"Of course, I have no objection! Let me help you!

"Naturally, so am I. I don't know how much I can do..."

In response to Iris, who responded immediately, Adelbert looked a little unhappy about the children.

"Why? Even though I'm a little old, I still can't beat Iris."

"That's right. You can count on me more than Kate, can't you?

"Mr. Iris, Mr. Kate, is that right?

"Oh. Your father is proud to be a knight. It's not in my power."

"I regret it, but I'm still in my mom's arms too, don't you think...?

Whatever Mr. Iris is, considering Kate's bow arm, isn't that amazing?

To the gaze I point at, you two keep your mouths flat, but your mouth angle rises as if you were very, very good at it.

"Uh-huh, is that right? It's just, this time, to Mr. Iris and the others."

To me as I nodded and did not change my opinion, Master Adelbert again seemed grumpy, and Mr. Iris spins the words as if he was a little relieved.

"Father. You know how important it is to have trust between your comrades fighting together in battle? It's between me and the manager."

"Mm-hmm. Sure, Lord Non and Lord Sarasa just met today. You're weak when you say that."

Though slightly unintentional, I apologize to Master Adelbert and Mr. Iris, who puts his chest up with a Doya face like he was convinced...

"No, it doesn't matter this time"

To me clearly, Mr. Iris turned away from his good look and looked back stunned.
