Chapter 11 (1/2)

The inn was the template.

Oh, I remember Colette-chan. It’s unnatural to go meet her right now. Alright, let’s be healed by this girl.

…Eh, you are busy helping, is that so?

I teleport with my luggage from my inn room. After changing luggage at home, I teleported again and returned to the inn. The dress, shoes, and other things that were unnecessary for now were returned to my house, and a change of underwear and daily necessities were carried back. There is always a possibility of theft even if it's a trustworthy inn. There is nothing to worry about if only something on the level of underwear and daily necessities get stolen.

I walked around the city after changing into plain clothes. It is elementary in the art of warfare to obtain geographical advantage. Only a small handgun in the shoulder holster and a knife attached to my inner thigh for self-defense​, well it will be fine if it's a main street in the capital at daytime. I need be careful after moving around a lot though.

Yup, as expected of the capital. There are such splendid buildings even in a developing world. The food stall​'s skewer is quite delicious. I won't mind what the meat is. Keep away from dark alleys and slums. I’ll deal with such clichés in time.

After walking around for a while, the sun was setting so I returned to the inn.

I ate in one my house's room. And take a shower for the first time after a long while. I'm revived…

Next morning, I head out to the town immediately after eating and went to a realtor. No, I woke up late and barely made it before breakfast ended, so I think the realtor is open now.

After asking pa.s.sing people several times, I finally arrived. It’s probably okay because it’s the shop recommended by earl-sama. I gently enter the shop. No, it was better to enter confidently, but out of habit….

“Please come in(Ira.s.shaimase)”

It might have been some other phrase, but for some reason the young clerk greeted me with words recognized as that.

“Thank you for coming over. What kind of service would you like to receive today?”

While being impressed, she gently presents the letter of introduction.

“Em, I want a store with living s.p.a.ce… This is my letter of introduction”

Ahh, as expected of earl-sama, it’s working it’s working.

An elderly man jumps out in an panic.

The owner comes out to meet in person. Ah, it’s obvious, because it’s an letter of introduction from one of the leading n.o.bles.

“Thank you. Actually, I wanted a shop… ”

Lutz-san guided me to the back of the store. Perhaps ordinary customers get served at the storefront tables. It’s VIP treatment. I wonder if delicious sweets will be served.

The sweets are so-so. No, I think it's good for this world. However, not when compared to j.a.pan's. I’m sorry.

Well, maybe because Lutz-san thinks I’m used to eating delicious sweets, he doesn’t seem so disappointed when he sees my face that shows it's not so delicious. No, for Lutz-san, right now is not time for that.

“… so, these are the places I would recommend around here…”
