Mr. Krua then left the inn.

By the time I got home, my expression was a lot softer, so I guess I'll be fine.

... Good. We can continue to work together again.

Mr. Krua, I felt quite responsible.

Nothing. You don't have to worry so much. Hopefully, a little more shoulder strength.

I look at the paper placed on the desk in the room.

Previously, the day on which a merchant who had asked Mr. Kulua to visit the city was written sloppily.

Starting this afternoon, they're opening the city.

By now, the square will be busy preparing for it.

I woke her up earlier today because she told me she was going to help too.

I checked about the city to gain new skills.

I hope they sell good gear.

It's only in the afternoon that we head to the city.

Because in the morning I had a few things to verify about my gear and skills.

First of all, when I act as an adventurer, I'm equipped with tons of weapons.

Because it doesn't activate if you're not wearing the effects of your skills.

I knew that, but how far is the treatment of equipment?

In fact, I would have activated my gear skills off my hands during the battle as well.

So what comes off the gear under the conditions and will you be equipped again?

I wanted to look into them.

Especially if the problem comes off.

You'll have trouble falling out of gear unexpectedly during the battle.

First things first.

The item box that is now the material storage area......,

"I can't do that, can I?"

Well, I understood this. Even now, I have a skilled knife, but it has no effect on my body.

Just take out the skilled knife and start verifying.

I grabbed it, and after about ten seconds, my body was lighter.

... Now I guess that means I'm equipped.

The next step is to test your skills.

The easiest thing to find out is an automatic return.

This is probably one of the curses of getting back to the equipper where it has become the limit of the equipment.

Once you wear it, you'll never be able to take it off again.

Well, if it's meant to be, it's not user-friendly, but it can also be used like boomerang if applied to combat.

I count the seconds where I left that gear.

... Ten seconds have passed and it looks like my skills have been activated and they are back on my hands.

Is it ten seconds that it will no longer be gear handling?

I'll even try some other gear.

Equipped with a large amount of muscle strength, then placed away.

... Is that it?

After a while, there will be no change in the body.

... Could it be because it's close?

If you reach out and you're kept at a distance that you can reach, don't you have to wear something else?

It was then.

The door to the room was knocked.

"Who is it?

"It's me, it's Meir"

Mr. Meir.

When I was concerned and opened the door, there was Meir dressed in cute clothes.

... Is that it? I wonder what that is.

It's similar to our uniform, but I feel more glamorous than before.

"What's wrong with you?

"Hey, everything's a new uniform to hire, apparently. They're going to take this opportunity to renew it."

"... hey, you look great"

"Does it look good on you? I didn't really wear these pretentious clothes..."

"Meir is good, so she looks great in whatever she wears."

Ms. Meir turned red at that moment as if her face had exploded with mine.

Her face is nagging, but her tail is shaking happily.

... right. Just fine.

"Mr. Meir. Is this a break now?

"Oh, oh... it's a lunch break"

"Then can I ask you to hang out a little bit?

"Huh? Yes, no... well, there's so much room to go somewhere -"

"Could you grab the knife that's lined up there?

"Huh?... Oh"

After tilting his neck, Mr. Meir tried to grip one of the knives that was lined up in bed.

"Is this it?

"... Yes"

Then ten seconds later, my body got a little heavier.

... So you're off the gear.

If it's a distance to some point, does that mean the skill will be activated if the owner doesn't otherwise move?

Assuming the demons are doomed, idiots, just rolling your skilled gear over there is going to boost my abilities.

... Nevertheless, such a situation would be difficult.

"Thank you, Mr. Mere."

"Oh, oh... what were you doing?

"I was checking the activation conditions for the skills on my gear."

"I see...?

Mr. Meir was nodding but leaning his neck.

I briefly explained it to you.

Thanks to Mair's help, I'm a little bit sorry to investigate my skills.

And then, how far will it go?

"Relius. You got a second?

"What is it?

"Next time, I'm going to try a nearby labyrinth. However, I also think it's hard to just be alone... and if you like, why don't you join me?

"... am I okay?

"No, I think it would be impeccable if you had as much power as Relius..."

... Wouldn't you?

Goblins are still the only demons I can defeat.

However, there was also a desire to try to fight a slightly stronger demon while Mr. Meir was there.

It could annoy Mr. Meir.

But I'd like to have a little adventure, too.

"Okay. I'm good."

"Ho, is that true? Then why don't you come with me on my next vacation!

"Okay. If it was three days later, we'd be on vacation together, right?

"Oh!"

"Shall we go that day?"

"... oh, nice to meet you"

I'll give this one back to you the same way, as Mr. Meir has been keeping his head down with pepper.

Mr Mere, who raised his face, then cheeks.

The expression seemed kind of hard to say.

"What's wrong with you?

"... No, I don't. I wanted to ask you a few questions."

"What is it"

"Was that Mr. Krua you brought in yesterday? You're a merchant at everything, and you work together, right?

"Yes."

Speaking of which, I hadn't explained the details of the situation since I met Mr. Meir yesterday.

I should have told you, because you took care of Meir a lot.

"Nothing more than a work relationship with her...?

"... more than a job relationship? What is it?

"Did, for example... that, lover... or something?

"... be!

Oh, my God, you're asking me!

In his brain, Mr. Krua's underwear floats. Besides, feel a little edgy!

No, no, no! Go away, clutter!

"No. Yikes. Mr. Krua and I are merchants and craftsmen!

Mr. Krua is a man who pursues a dream of being a merchant.

I would never do anything to get in the way of that person.

"Oh, did you? Hey, um... Listina asked me! I thought it was a suspicious relationship!

"Mr. Listina...... Ah"

He's a newbie who teases people right away.

The first week or so was quiet, but now I'm totally familiar with it, making fun of people.

... I'm not a bad kid, and I can do my job, so that's okay.

"I'm sorry. I heard something weird! Bye!"

"Yes, good luck with your work this afternoon"

"... ahhh"

Mr. Meir smiles at him and then leaves the room.

I'll do the final skill test then.

The range recognized as equipment was approximately up to about three meters.

It was shorter than I thought.

However, it seemed fine no matter how far away I was for ten seconds after I gripped it.

If automatic returns are activated in the meantime, they will be treated as equipment again.
