8 Episode 7 Slaves and Herds (1/2)

I wake up to the sound of bells. I feel like I've been living a very healthy life since I came to this world. I wake up at 6 a.m. and go to bed a little after dark, like an old man.

The blacksmith has told me to come back tomorrow, so I'm going to look for herbs again today. I only have enough money to pay for two days of lodging, and it's not enough to feel safe.

But first, I need to eat.

I go to the same restaurant as yesterday and show them the key.

Come on in!

The tension is as high as ever: ....... I wish I happened to be having a high tension day. .......

Well, thanks to you, I'm awake. It's even better at waking me up than Messhakis!

The menu is presented to me forcefully, as if it remembers what I did yesterday.

”Which one is it today?

”Which one today? But the food is good. But the food is good, so I'll take that as compensation.

”Orc set meal, please.

I say while holding out two copper coins. The Orc set meal is 80 ter.

As usual, the naming sense is very simple. Well, it's better than trying to be fancy and not knowing what's written on it.

Even if you say ”mireligue alla panna con i broccoli”, all I know is that it looks like it has broccoli in it.

The orcs I know are humanoid, but they don't seem to care about that. Well, demons are demons, I guess.

”Oh!

A piece of grilled meat with sauce and the same bread as last time are served.

I said, ”Is it ready? That's fast! Here it comes! Here it comes! I'm welcoming it. I wonder how they are cooking it. The level of trust in LS on Earth and in the other world was too different.

I ate my food in one go without saying a word. I hadn't had the habit of saying ”Itadakimasu” since I was on Earth. I've always eaten alone. .......

It's still good. It is lighter than Gargon meat, but there is a lot of it. This is probably the reason for the 10-tel difference.

After I finished eating, I was about to buy a lunch box (bread) for today, but I remembered the existence of the item box and decided to buy in bulk.

”I'd like to buy about ten pieces of bread for lunch, is that okay?

”Item box! I don't have that many, so can I buy them tomorrow? I don't have that many, so can we do it tomorrow? If it's okay if it's a little late, I can make them now, but what do you say?

Then I'll take 10 tomorrow, just one today. I'll pay you the money now.

Then give me the silver.

Oh! I'll do it!

I receive a loaf of bread and 45 copper coins, put them in the item box, and leave the store.

Today, I'm not going to the guild, I'm going to go straight to the forest and collect all the herbs I can.

The city in the morning has a different vibrancy than in the evening. A variety of stores are preparing to open their doors.

There is nothing special about the kinds of stores. There are restaurants, grocery stores, butcher shops, clothing stores, and so on.

I didn't find anything unusual in the grocery store, but the butcher shop has a lot of monster meat. I wonder if they buy it from the guild or something. On the other hand, ordinary meat was nowhere to be found. Green wolves, orcs, gargons, and goblins.

What, they eat goblins? Well, Orcs are humanoid, but goblins look filthy to me. .......

Perhaps the image of goblins on Earth is different.

Goblin meat is the cheapest, but it's not particularly cheap, about 20% cheaper than Green Wolf meat.

Orcs and Gargons are almost double the price of Green Wolf. It may be that they are in short supply, as they are highly requested.

There's a burnt corpse of a green wolf in the item box, but is it edible? ....... I don't feel like eating it, and I don't think I can sell it, so I'll leave it alone. I'd be grateful if the day when I eat it never comes.

Clothing stores are not so different from those in Japan. The only difference in the clothes themselves is that they are now sewn by hand instead of by machine.

The only difference is that the clothes themselves are now sewn by hand instead of by machine. However, most of the clothes sold are second-hand, and the only new clothes seem to be custom-made. The strange thing about this world is that no matter how much you use your clothes, they do not get dirty as long as you use them normally, and even if they get muddy, you can easily clean them just by soaking them in water. For this reason, many people wear one piece of clothing for a long time, and reuse of old clothes is also popular.

However, as is to be expected, when clothes are torn or the fibers are damaged, they do not seem to be repaired automatically, and if they are used for a long time, they will wear out and become loose to some extent. It seems that clothes shops buy and repair such clothes, and then sell them as cheaper second-hand clothes or use them to make bags for packing.

If the initial MP is related to the capacity of the item box, then the capacity of my item box is extremely large. If that's the case, then I won't be in need of a baggage bag.

As I walked along, I casually appraised the store keeper of a rather large butcher shop, and discovered a new fact.
