Magic Tool Store
“Ah, yes, Stefan-san . Do you also sell magic tools here?”
“If am afraid to say that this store doesn’t sell them, but our company has a contract with magic tool craftsmen, so I could introduce you to that store . You are an adventurer, aren’t you, Takumi-dono? Do you need magic tools for that?”
“No, if I had to say, then I need a magic tools for cooking…”
Right, I want magic tools for cooking .
A mixer, a hand mixer, juice mixer, and also a meat grinder . Anyhow, I need something that will allow me to prepare the ingredients finely and mix them together .
Currently, I am doing it myself in my free time, but to do it when I like, a magic tool would be much more convenient .
I have not seen a magic tool like that on sale before, so I thought of having it made . Therefore, I would be happy to get introduced to some magic tool craftsmen .
“I see, I see . In that case, your affinity with the magic tool craftsman contracted by our company might be good . ”
“N? Is the magic tool craftsman an occupation with various specializations?”
“Well, they are not necessarily limited by specializations, but they have tendencies to be good at making different things . ”
Certainly . There are many tools I have on me like the barrier stones, a portable cooking stove, ignite beads, and mermaid bracelets . There are many kinds of magic tools, aren’t there~ It might be difficult for the craftsmen to be able to make everything .
I don’t know whether that person will be able to make the tools I need, but I would like to ask, at least .
“Could you please introduce that magic tool craftsman’s store to me?”
“Yes, of course . ”
“Thank you very much . ”
We left towards the magic tool craftsman stotre introduced by Stefan-san without a delay, however—
“Uh-oh… is this it?”
“”Here~?””
The place indicated on the map was in the back alley of the shopping district, it was a store that scored perfect on the worn-out, suspicious scale .
“Is this really the place?”
It’s a magic tool craftsman the Fiji Company has a contract with, so I selfishly thought they would be running a more respectable-looking store, so I was startled for a little .
“”Going in? Going in?””
For some reason, Allen and Elena were making excited expressions .
Does it perhaps feel like a haunted house for the two?
“Indeed . Let’s go enter . ”
“”Yeah!””
“Excuse~ me- n? —-N?”
“””Huhh~?””
When entering the store, I had an unpleasant feeling .
“… A barrier?”
Apparently, this store has a barrier of some kind cast over it . It had a similar feeling to the barrier spread around the Mermaid village, so I immediately noticed .
Looking over the store one more time, I was startled in a different kind of way .
“Pretty~?”
“Many~?”
“Now this was unexpected . ”
Unlike the outward appearances, the interior of the store was very beautiful, moreover, it was crowded with magic tools lined up next to each other .
No, were the outward appearances perhaps just the result of the barrier?
“Oh my, my, it’s rare for this store to have customers . ”
“Ah, sorry for intruding . ”
An elder with a cane appeared from inside the store . Is he the shopkeeper here?
“Are you the shopkeeper here? This store has been introduced by Fiji Company’s Stefan-san to me . ”
“By Stefan? How unusual for him to introduce someone to me . ”
“Is that so?”
“There are two kinds of stores Stefan recommends to other . Stores he introduces merely for formality’s sake and stores he introduces to considerable guests of honor . The people he introduces to this store are those he is pleased with or absolutely doesn’t want to offend . ”
Pleased with? Doesn’t want to offend? Which am I?
If I had to choose, I would prefer the former?
“Still, you did good entering without turning back . ”
“Well, I did think the store looked suspicious though…”
“”Looks fun~♪””
“The children were eager to enter… besides, the store was introduced to me . So that means, as I thought, you were using a magic tool to make the store look like that on purpose . ”
“Fuo, fuo, fuo . You even noticed the barrier? You are quite good~ I see, I see, I see why Stefan likes you . I am pleased with you as well . ”
Apparently, I somehow managed to earn the old man’s favor .
“Now then, now then, what kind of magic tool is that you want?”
“Err, it’s a cooking tool . Something like one with a rotating blade that would finely mince the ingredients?”
“You want something strange . I recall making something like that in the past…”
“You have it!?”
“I sure made it, but it never sold, I think . ”
He apparently has a mixer-like magic tool . Rather, he’s biding mixers with something strange .
“Let me take a look, you guys wait here . ”
“Yes . Err, can we take a look at the magic tools here?”
“Sure . Go ahead . ”
Grandpa went to look for the magic tool in the inner part of the store, so we decided to take a look at the magic tools that were on display .
“”Onii~chan, what’s this~?””
“N? This looks like a light magic tool . ”
“”Light~? And this one~?””
“This is a magic tool to start a fire . This one looks like a barrier stone? Somehow, there are many tools that adventurers would use, aren’t there~”
There were many magic tools the adventurers would use such as magic bags, water bottles, and even a single button press tents on the shelf we were looking at .
“Adventurers~”
“Need them~?”
“Hm? It’s not like they really need them, but they are convenient tools to have . ”
“Does Onii~chan have~?”
“How about Allen and Elena~?”
When I told them that they are magic tools that adventurers use, Allen and Elena were curious whether we also have them .
“We have most of them . You guys also have ignite beads and water bottles in your magic bags, right?”
“”Ohh~””
When I told Allen and Elena that they have some things too, although not completely same, the two let out voices of admiration .
The two has never used the things in their magic bag, so they seem to have forgotten about it .
“Look, I found it . ”
When the two nodded in understanding, the old man returned .
“When you do this like this, this blade rotates like this…”
“Ohh!”
When the old man brought the thing and placed it on the table while explaining, I realized that it was closer to a mixer than I thought .
“It seems that you are satisfied with it . ”
“Yes, I really wanted this . ”
“I see, I see . By the way, I also have this one for juicy ingredients . ”
“!”
The old man even prepared something that resembled a juice mixer .
“I want this as well . ”
I replied the moment I saw it .
“At least look a little bit troubled . You are too brave . Recently, there were many fellows who tried finding faults with my products, but you, how do I say it… you are too honest . Seems like there are more tools you want? Tell me in detail . If I have nothing resembling it, I will make it for you . ”
“Thank you very much . ”
I was shaken up by the words “honest” but I decided to accept the old man’s offer and requested him to make me a hand mixer and a meat grinder .
