Chapter 11 (2/2)
Stone-built houses were lining the stone-paved street and the city's level of civilization didn't appear that low, a little like Europe during its later half of the Renaissance
”Are those street lights electrical? Maybe they've got outlets to charge at?”
”You and your console Anyway, about e should do from here”
”Whatever we do we should probably do it before nightfall Did you have so some weapons!”
Tomochika seemed very passionate about her proposal
*****
They couldn't read the letters of this world, but thanks to the pictures drawn on the shops' signs they could more or less find their way and soon they discovered a weapons dealer
”Honestly, I don't really see the point of relying on weapons for self-defense”
”But using your power for self-defense basicallykilled for trying to kill someone is a 'reap what you sow' sort of deal if you ask me”
”Sure, but don't you think people are less likely to co weapons?”
”You think? I don't know, doesn't feel like it'd really er about it he decided to at least give it a try
The inside of the shop was boo with custoh for weapons to be in such high demand All kinds of equip the, rade items
Soing fro people with no ular ones to people covered in fur or even scales, far from comparable to humans They all appeared to coexist in this world
”How about this?”
Tohly 30 centihter than he expected and lay well in his hands, but he couldn't say it gave hi of safety
”If it's for the sake of threat then wouldn't a rougher looking one be better?”
”Yeah, but how are you going to walk around with soreatsword? You don't see's fine by ht, so this one it is!”
Tomochika was oddly enthusiastic about it
The way she handled the weapons somehow looked like she was used to it For herself she picked a quarterstaff and a bow
”The balance is a little, well, h a hazuyari, but that doesn't see”
(TN: A blade attached to the tip of bows for sake of melee combat)
To as she fiddled with her bow
”Sorry to interrupt, but can we even pay without talking their language?”
”I guess we just show hi her words into action she went up to the counter, the weapons in hand
”Excuse me, do you speak japanese?”
”OK! Understand! japanese, regular customers!”
You couldn't call him fluent, but it appeared the residents of this world were used to dealing with japanese
To an appropriate sum and put it on the counter, but the shopkeeper was visible surprised It was probably too much, but since they had ed hi to rob thes like arrowheads and a scabbard to their purchase
”It's nice that we've got all these weapons now, but aren't bows pretty difficult to handle?”
”Ah, no worries Used to them”
”Oh, were you part of the archery club?”
”Not a club, but yeah, so like that”
Theyabout their purchase, when suddenly a girl with cat ears walked up to the
”Are you two Nyapanese? First tiuide, nya?”
They were addressed by soe verbal tic

Thanks for reading Next chapter so out typos and mistakes
Hazuyari are short blades attached to the tip of bows Occasionally the bowstring is quickly re it possible to use the bow like a spear Note that only a japanese bow enthusiast would know of the here
En is written in katakana,currency and not the japanese yen itself
Regarding chapter 10:
shi+on's name ritten in kanji for the first time, only then was it revealed that she is japanese
Kurayami's name isn't written in kanji so we left it untranslated, but its reading essentially means ”The Darkness”
