Chapter 62 – The sold bars

Even in the Erishe that I fervently believed to be peaceful, I was attacked by bandits

And even if that weren't the case, o without saying that so like that definitely couldn't be called peaceful In the first place, the empire that Erishe was a part of was in the ht now)

Looking back on the bandit case now, it was a blessing in disguise

Firstly, the ene

Further fro a proper weapon was piqued If I hadn't bought a weapon and just wandered around in e chance it would have gone badly Even if Diana's spirit ic could restrict one person's ainst three opponents I was carrying , but it wouldn't be enough to go against bandits armed with broadswords Rather, there was no way I could have resisted at all In other words, I would have been 'dead'— to put it precisely, I would have been 'killed'

”So because of this, I have decided to set aside so, but I want to prioritiseable to run away, after all Marina, you will be following Rebeccsan's training as usual Diana will practice using weapons I bring from the other side Apart from that, there'll be battle tactics You'll have to ask Rebeccsan and Hetty-san for instructions though…”

”T-That's fine, but what about the stall?”

”I'll only go in the afternoons Etowa can handle the s by herself now, probably”

The only reason ere able to evade the bandits this tiood enough… I was still a little anxious about leaving the store to Etowa by herself, but I had to prioritise training otherwise, the next ti happened there, wouldn't be a next tile skilled person a us, I cannot confidently say we'd be able to resist in our current state

I handed Diana the weapon I ordered through the internet

A crossbow and polycarbonate shi+eld

Most people iht this ti it a crossbow, it was un in appearance For the record, 'bowgun' was apparently the product name of a crossbow company Kind of like the era where smartphones were equivalent to iPhones Probably

At any rate, it was still a crossbow The more expensive ones exceeded 100,000 yen, but those were the ones used by the more serious hunters (Perhaps the cheap ones were used in target shooting sports Not that I kneas involved in that Or ? Like for ducks) The ones withto be pulled by a crank were difficult to maintain and over-the-top in terms of power, so I passed up on thee of 100ht had ainst other people The accuracy wasn't bad within 20 nise this as a weapon, so it could be used as a surprise attack However, it was necessary for the support string to be rigid, so the fact it acted up during battle so resulted in complete defencelessness Which wouldn't be much of a probleular small-sized arroas the safest option for battle The reality was that the crossbow could only be used as a single surprise attack… It seeal to do so in japan) I wondered why that was It'd be the end if you missed I could kind of understand why bows becauns spread Well, if I could getleft to fear in this world

As for the polycarbonate shi+eld—it was just that A light, transparent shi+eld Apparently, its official nahter than a mythril shi+eld and as for its abilities—I hadn't tested the used by the riot police (I bought it through online delivery so its quality was probably not as good, though) I also bought a large one, though it was a little h to cover the whole body and could guard against most projectile weapons in the other world, or at the very least against arrows It should also be able to block h it was probably like paper to people at Shello-san's level

I had already given Diana tear gas and a stun gun (bought online) before this for self-defence She hadn't had a chance to use them in the last battle with the bandits, but these self-defence iteeted

Other self-defence products obtainable in japan included slash-proof vests and stab-proof shi+rts, which I had considered, but decided against as the amount of defence they provided was not worth their cost To put it bluntly, the leather armour at Erishe had a better cost-perforht and noise to consider too Perhaps it would be better to have boughten a hly around 200,000 yen—so I couldn't buy it that easily

My net auctions were going well too I was regularly putting out the iteht at the ular custoher too Deh (especially for linen), so I would sell the fabric I bought from japan in the other world, then use that money in the other world to buy fabric to sell in japan… kind of like an international trade I should just buy all the second-hand fabrics in the Erishe like this Thesoiven out flyers stating I would buy any fabrics at my store too, and people sometimes came to sell theirs There were all kinds of ite the ite from the ed second-hand ones, quantity mattered more than quality

Furthermore, 'antique' iteely popular in this international trade with the other world, so having unsold stock of those was useful Strictly speaking, that unsold stock was still newly made other world items, so it wasn't exactly antique

Fabric—especially this 'antique linen' ter at the bid history it was evident that there was quite a lot of demand

Cotton was also quite popular… but linen was overwhel japanese yen at a fairly good rate At this pace, I could leave my parents' house and live on my own soon I had movedI usedself-defence ite s of japanese yen, the self-defence tools were unexpectedly expensive, soto put any money into this house? You parasite!” I lost to her pressure and went to the gold pawn shop again Last tiold cup I found at the flea market It was only as small as y for 'gold coating' existed in this world yet, so it was undoubtedly gold The Mirror of Truth also said as old it was In the end, I sold the 126 graold pawn shop was less than the tih cash …Especially since it only cost old coin and 4 silver coins) at the flea old was a little over three tiold…

Anyway, I received 450,000 yen so now I had soh leeway to slam 50,000 yen on the table and say to ht be a little dishonest earning 450,000 yen so easily like this, but it was also in a grey area where neither I nor the pawn shop trader and cup seller lost anything—in other words, a in situation!

Battle training was usually held in the hts with Shello-san, they were always one-on-one—so ent through nearly every combination you could think of Like 'Shello-san and Rebeccsan vs me', 'Shello-san and Rebeccsan vs me and Marina', 'Shello-san vs me and Marina', or 'Shello-san and Rebeccsan vs Marina' Within them, the most helpless combinations were 'Everyone vs me' and 'Everyone vs Marina' (even when the opponent's weapon was a wooden stick)

Firstly, if you were surrounded like the shi+nsenguht back in this situation That hy you had to defeat each unit before that happened, in any ed yourself to be disadvantageous, run away as soon as possible Or if just retreating the er at all

Shello-san had said so like, ”If you defeat one of theet all of them Wahaha!” which wasn't useful at all, so I asked Rebeccsan to teachIt would have been nice if Hetty-san was there too, but because of that Chubby, she was nowhere to be seen
