Mr. Krua contacted me about something I wanted to talk to you about, so I was out of work by the end of the evening.

What do you want to talk about?

What happened to the story of selling herbs to the adventurers?

I hope it goes well.

I was on my way to the Adventurer Guild but didn't have any more info in it.

It is also possible that Mr. Krua has failed to sell it.

If that were the case, the herbs I made would be wasted.

Well, I don't mind because it's made out of magic.

... What if it's something else?

For example, if the contract is terminated…. I was anxious because the content was not deliberately written.

When I went to the store where Mr. Krua called me, Mr. Krua was playing a little trick.

... Clearly not like me, a civilian like anywhere else.

It's the kind of outfit that works even when it's called a junior nobleman. However, what she wears is close to a swallow tail suit.

Well worn clothes by merchants.

When the female merchant wore it, it felt like a woman who could work.

"Ah, Mr. Relius. Long time no see."

"Yes, it's been a long time"

"I'm talking to the store, so I'll be right inside. Are you all right, sir?

"Yes."

Mr. Krua walks inside with a smile.

Looking behind her, she walks into the store with her.

There are many table seats lined up. Unlike the tavern and our dining room, it was a somewhat calm atmosphere store.

I just got a seat, order the food.

Nevertheless, they have some kind of course dish.

Sure, the determined dishes came out in order?

Don't get a little nervous when you hear about course cooking.

"Does Mr. Krua usually come to these places?

"No, I'm hardly, am I? I've been taken by my master for several experiences."

"... is that right? It was my first time, so I'm really nervous now."

"I did the same thing the first time."

Mr. Krua smiled with a grin.

... The look on Mr. Krua's face doesn't look unusual.

I hope it's not a bad story, what do you think?

The salad is carried first, and Mr. Krua will split it into plates.

"Oh, speaking of which, do you drink alcohol?

"You don't drink because you don't like it"

"Really, I don't like it either... for once, don't hesitate to say it because it seems you can drink all you want"

Right.

When the salad was finished, I saw Mr. Krua.

"Mr. Krua. So what's the story today? I'm sorry, are we talking?

I'll have to ask Uzuba too.

She opened her eyes to my words.

... I knew it, did I?

"Chi, no! Rather, it's a good story!

"... Oh, really?

"Yikes! I don't know where the hell to start anymore...... First of all, I got a story from my master's shop about wanting to put the product down and now I don't need the cost of the place!

"... Really?

"Yes, because even though you're a master, you're a businessman. All of Mr. Lelius's products are very highly valued. So I was able to negotiate this one vigorously.... Well, you're a master for once. I took a look at you somewhat seriously."

"That's good."

Don't be relieved.

It is still a pleasure to hear how many times what you make is appreciated in this way.

"With regard to the furniture, please continue with the delivery"

"Okay."

"So, the next thing I know, it's about herbs..."

Separate conversations there once.

I'd love this one if it was a good story, but it wouldn't go that conveniently.

When he was somewhat prepared, Mr. Krua let his eyes shine all the time.

"I was able to get the herbs to market well!

"... Oh really? But you may act as an adventurer yourself, but you're not really in circulation, are you?

"You're going to be"

"Are we going to?

"Yes, I've decided to negotiate with the guild and ask the adventurers I know to collect the herbs as a matter of priority. So I was able to deliver a little bit more herbs than normal."

"... I see. Are you suggesting you've accommodated adventurers?"

"Yes, use my connections."

Sure, then we'll be able to flush it well.

"It's just that if only the adventurer delivered directly, wouldn't they say something like that?

"I originally decided to ask an adventurer working in another city. … with my connections, I emphasised strongly the part that"

"I see..."

"It's just because this adventurer is fictional. Being poked too persistently can be a hassle."

"Are you all right?

"I'm not lying about anything. You can handle as much later as you want."

That's what it is.

"In the meantime, the herbs were quite daunting as a first delivery. Next delivery, please."

Basically, I'm supposed to get paid for all my products when they're delivered.

Whether it sells or not, it's a good contract as far as I'm concerned because it pays just what I deliver, but I was wondering what it would be like for her.

However, if there was a lot, my worries decreased a little.

"Anyway, thanks to Mr. Relius, I was able to sell my name. Thank you so much. I'll pay for today's meal, so be free to eat!

"No, it's nothing. It's okay. Let's go there on a reciprocal basis."

It's not as worthless as having you treat me otherwise.

Or maybe I'm making more money now.

But Mr. Krua looked pompous in my words.

"What's wrong with you?

"... Mr. Lelius is kind of different from other craftsmen, isn't he?"

"Are you another craftsman?

"Right.... er, will you decide not to ask me what I told you here about that?

"Yes, I don't mind."

That said, after Mr. Krua sighed small, I said.

"I thought craftsmen were selling technology, didn't they?

"Yes."

"So, um... pretty much a sight from the top, a lot of people have a grand attitude."

"... uh, right"

Well, in my case, I don't feel like I'm making things.

Others make it from scratch, and I wonder if they have attachments, etc.

"So I hope it's pretty hard to do. Sometimes I get the chance to dine with craftsmen like this... but it's hard to deal with them."

"... I see"

"In the first place, they're just older people, and they make sexual harassment statements normal, and whatever, sometimes they try to touch me... if that's what you want, you just have to go to that store!

She said so with a bumpy face.

If you look closely, your face is a little red.

She puts her mouth on the glass she had at hand.

... That, possibly alcohol?

She and I have already welcomed adults so we can drink without any problems.

I just barely ever said it because I didn't really know how good it tasted.

For once, I drank with my parents the day I grew up. He never got drunk at all, so alcohol seems stronger.

Speak up to the clerk who brought the next dish.

"Um, excuse me. Did you bring alcohol?

"... no? This seat is - hey, hey, hey, come on!

She looked at Mr. Krua's glass and backed off in a panic.

Then came the clerk and possibly the shopkeeper.

"I'm sorry. Here, I think I carried it by mistake..."

"... Ha, did you"

"I didn't have all-you-can-drink today, but I also have this mess, and you're free to drink it..."

"... ok. Mr. Krua, what do you want to do?

"Osakinomu!

To be honest, I'm not happy because I can drink all I want.

Whatever, I'd have been happier to give you about half the price, but, well, Mr. Krua, it sounds like fun, okay?

"Leliusu! Listen to me!

She pulls her arm like a waste.

... Looks pretty weak for alcohol, Mr. Krua.
