Is it the face! It's the face isn't it!
◇
Because there were various things happening yesterday, I was fast asleep right after dinner
Today is a reading day!
Is what I thought, but the rooh but it's still not enough to make books readable, it's too dim
If I' this inn
Let's eat a breakfast special on the coffee shop I dunno if it exist but
The tavern in first floor of the inn is croith people who are taking breakfast It seems that the customers has increased a bit compared to yesterday
I give the key to the landlady since I'reets me when I co radiance
The gate also looks re carriage are going in and out pulled by peasant-looking people Do they not use cows or horses to pull it?
I immediately find the coffee shop when I look around outside It's slightly farther away than what I remember
It seems that the coffee shop use the indoor for meal while the open terrace is for tea time When I naturally ask the waitress, it doesn't seem that it's the owner's decision to do that Because the inside of the shop is a bit dark, I secure a seat on the open terrace for easy reading
For breakfast, I order a fruit and sandwiches The sandwich has haetables and cheese sandwiched between the malt bread The fruit juice is sie The cup isn't lass but copper but since it's cold, it's still quite delicious I wonder if it's cooled using life ic increases~ ♪
Oh, yeah, there are 3 waitresses A 20 year old plump red head, a 16 year old slender chestnut-colored hair with an iirl who looks younger than 12 with a long black hair
Everyone is working cheerfully
While enjoying these sights, I read the introductory book for life ic
Life ic not classified in any of the four ic useful for daily life It's a ic incoe the required ic power is not ic can use it Nevertheless, even with so ic They call ic, spell-users, and rather than as icians, these people are treated as town handyicians who learn lifethis written in the book
”Good , Satou-san!”
I was greeted from outside the terrace It's Nadi-san
I thought that she's still in shock froetic She's strong even for an energetic archetype!
”GoodHow is your condition, Nadi-san?”
”Thank you very et away froe”
”It's fine, it wasn't much”
Since she's here, I offered her a chair
”Is that a book on life ic?”
”Yes, I bought it yesterday hoping to at least be able to use the basics”
Sinceis the chants though
”For lifeon your nition but if you cause fire in the town, it could be dangerous”
Certainly, it's just as she said
”If it's Water Spring then you can store the water in a bucket, but please don't use the metal cup beside you since it's easy to scratch”
Do I draw the water from vapor?
”If it's Dry then you can practice using wet clothes placed on a hanger”
It's quite a scientific talk Even though it's fantasy
”That's right, Does Satou-san not use a cane? You can't use ic if you don't equip a cane”
What! There's such restriction
Coicians fro a cane
Wait, how about that soldier? And the priestess didn't have one too
”Do you mean Parion priestess? If so then they have holy mark in place of a cane The soldier probably had other kind invocation tools or maybe a backup short cane?”
”Nadi-san, what is invocation tool? Is it different from a cane?”
”Invocation tool is so like a cane, it's an iteic The effect is lower than a cane, but it's expensive so there are few ic swordsman where it's not possible to use a cane then it's a necessity”
As expected of the live Wiki The one woman encyclopedia, Nadi-san
Cane huh There are various type of , it's scary If possible, I'd like to practice with cheap things first
But the ic shops in the town center won't be in operation for a while, I wonder where I could get one?
”Nadi-san, Do you knohere I can buy a short cane?”
”Then the ic shop in the central But as expected, it's closed because of yesterday, right? I think you can buy one from the alchemy shop in the west town”
I make a note of the way to the alchemist shop from Nadi-san
Then after telling me the important points to note in the west area, Nadi-san went back to her work
Now that it's lunch time in the open terrace, the customers have increased
◇
I finished reading the introductory book just as I finished eating pasta for lunch
Why is this fantasy town very peculiar about taste!
10 minutes after I've entered the western area, the content of the duone The bottoh there were only pennies inside
Froame-like function
I've passed through the area where they're selling daily necessities, and suspicious looking shops began to increase in nu oldaround
There's a square in the center of the west area The alchemy shop is further ahead
Street stalls are lined up in the square, selling birds, cattle and the like co with each other
On the entrance of the square, aabout slave market It seeht
When I look at it carefully there are boys and girls with slave collars on their neck standing in line with cattle Half of them seems to be hurt Every one of those slaves have dead eyes The cattle look healthier than them
