"Hmm, then arrange this picture in order..."

"From doop to pull, I took a series of shots of this? So?"

"Tobi, you're waiting for your sister - make it look like you put a picture of your brother at the end!

"Come on, don't do it. If they imitate you like that, you'll weep blood and grieve, that guy."

"You're scared!? Well, it's a joke. Why don't we just give him a couple of decent shots? It's a hassle, Heind sends it to me."

"That's good. I've already received the data, so I'll do it later.... So it's time to go?

"Oh, let's get this done!

When we left the capitol, we did the photo sorting first on the edge of a road that people couldn't get through.

Later to meet a person named "Mr. Din" who pierced the example dagger into the ice dragon, to find a shoe shop and walk around the city.

According to the liquor store owner, the store is built in a prime location in the commercial district......

In front of the store we found a while later, we stopped in disquiet.

"This...?

"That's not what I imagined at all! I heard he was an ex-mercenary, so I imagined a more martial arts store."

"Neither do I. Contrary to my expectations, it's a pretty shabby shop..."

I assumed on my own that I was selling practical shoes and stuff in the image, but apparently that was a mistake.

It is not a craftsman's shop as I thought it would be, but a high-end boutique-like shop.

"I can't help standing here! We're going in for now, Hynd!

"Oh. First of all, do you have the Din you're looking for?"

On this scale, even the clerk would hire them, and he/she would not always be in the store.

We opened the store door as we removed the hood from our coat.

When entering the store, ask the young female clerk who just stopped by to inform her of the situation and call Mr. Din.

The clerk was all of a sudden confused by the story of calling the store owner, but said he would only let me through for a second.

You don't look like the other players I was worried about, and then you just wait for Mr. Din to show up.

"So, what's Yumil doing?

"Hynd, look at these high heels! Gems all over the gorilla!? Practicality is beyond the darkness!

That's the result of pursuing appearance, and I think practicality is second to none...

Did Yumil have time to spare or began to find products in the store.

A gorgeous high heel with plenty of gems, as the words say, sparkles in the case.

"You, do you like that?

"No, not at all? Shoes that are going to hurt my legs like this, who wears them!

"Uh, well... no, you've always been just a sneaker when you're in personal clothes, you are. I figured it'd be easier?

"Exactly! I don't want to wear shoes that are difficult to walk in!

No, you talked about how Lise and her mother just put it on patiently for fashion.

But even with high heels, good quality shoes can make your feet stable and less painful.

There's a lot of fashion with those shoes as a premise, and women are tough...... oh, speaking of heels.

"What about when I have to wear a suit or something in the future? Ladies, mostly heeled pumps, right?

"I'm a woman, too, and I'm gonna wear the right shoes with proper patience? I'm just saying I'm not usually willing to wear it! … well, if you like these shoes, you can increase your chances of wearing them…"

"It looks and is easy to wear… that is, ideally it has both design and functionality. That's hard to get inside. Shoemakers should be looking for heights."

――

Me and Yumil looked back in surprise at the voices that had accidentally interrupted us.

There he was, an old man wearing an apron and laughing cheerfully.

Don't feel strange and similar to the owner of that liquor store 'Kaerla', even though the basic expression and appearance are completely different......

Me and Yumil were taken to the back of the store by Mr. Din.

Warm milk is offered in a workplace with smells of leather and chemicals.

Even in all those fine shops, there are a few of them, including Din...

Thank God we received the milk and spoke, and then we told Mr. Din everything depended on it.

Mr. Din, with his worn dagger in his hand, closed his eyes and sighed deeply - deeply.

"Thank God. The damage to Stampede will be greatly reduced in the future."

"Din's father was strong in his active life just because he could stab a sword in a dragon?

"That's right, it's bursting! - That's a joke, and you're gagged at the gap where your allies are blocking your eyes. I didn't have time to pull out my favorite dagger, but it wasn't calculated."

"Isn't it pretty awesome just the fact that you poked a gap and caused a huge injury? I can't believe you can stand alone from the front like that... I can't believe you're human..."

"Hynd?"

"No, bad. Never mind."

I was just about to say along the way, Alberto's figure crosses the back of my brain.

That guy was stopping by himself when he first ran into the ice dragon, wasn't he? That's from the front, too.

... well, let's leave him alone.

"Anyway, that's how I kept the liquor from the owner of the Caerla"

"Well... the fact that you brought this liquor with you means that he - Toni's bastard - remembered his promise. With our own hands, it's a promise we couldn't fulfill... By the way, what's going on with his shop now?

"It's flourishing these days! It's not that far from here, why don't you go?

"He's clumsy and unfathomable. His shop doesn't thrive... but you do. Until then, you'll keep this liquor."

That being said, Mr. Din laughed happily with the ancient liquor.

Being caught makes me and Yumil smile.

He goes on to tell us this story.

"I'd like to thank you for something from me too... it doesn't even feel like money, does it? Something else... Whoa!

Seeing the dagger, suddenly he took parchment and a pen as if he had come up with something.

Watching it, he wrote up the information and handed me the paper.

Um... place names and maps...? This.

When in doubt, Mr. Din explains with his index finger up.

"I knew visitors were strong and nasty, right? It's my own image. So, what do you think about the information on where Mareus, the maker of that dagger, is?

"Oh, isn't that good, Hynd! It's information that Sepp is going to be thrilled with!

Sure, that sounds like an atmosphere you could teach me about some kind of blacksmith.

The shopkeeper said that the dagger also carries plenty of earthly attributes, and I'm glad it's attribute-related.

"I heard that a man named Mareus is a famous artisan the country is proud of. Could it be information on where it is…"

"Oh. Because I'm in hiding, there's a very small number of people I know. I'll let him have the letter, and my introduction won't inconvenience me seeing him... just in case you take this dagger too, I'm sure. You don't have to give it back, take it."

"... May I? Finally back, isn't it an important sword?

In my words, Mr. Din put his dagger gently on the cloth.

When I held that wrap gently, I shook my head and offered it here.

"Not that I have anywhere to think about this dagger...... the past is the past. Instead, it's refreshing to take it with you. Good memories, bitter memories, all twisted."

"... thank you. Don't hesitate, then."

"Thanks!"

"No, this way. Thanks for everything."

That's what I said. Mr. Din's face was a soft, sunny look.

Me and Yumil then exchanged a word or two with Mr. Din and he left the store with a map and a dagger in his hand.

You could have stopped by within the Federation of Beli before you left for Sarah.

I'll text Mr. Serene later on this matter.
