After studying the vegetables and mushrooms, Dad bought the ingredients he had identified.

Then he began to talk with the shopkeepers and farmers about the ingredients.

As I glanced around, I noticed that Hurt was also there, as a matter of course.

He said, 'These tomatoes taste better when they are roasted. They get sweeter when they are heated. I love them in a gratin with cheese, vegetables and pasta.

'Oh, I see! I'm going to try it today.

Apparently, today's meal is gratin.

From what I've heard, it sounds pretty tasty, so I'm looking forward to it.

Hey, Tori. Can you follow me for a minute? I bought vegetables too, but I haven't bought condiments and fruits yet.

''Yeah, I guess so. It's going to be a long day over there, so let's finish Ira's shopping too.

I say a few words to my father and then go with Ira.

It seems that they have bought all the vegetables they need, so they will buy seasonings and fruits.

That shouldn't take too long.

Excuse me. Can I have some sugar?

'Three silver coins for this amount of leather bags.'

Seasonings are a bit pricey in this world. But they are not so precious that they are worth as much as gold, as they were in the past.

It is not high quality white sugar, but the price is high enough for us common people.

Of course, things that can only be found in different countries or are rare are ridiculously expensive.

May I check inside?

'Girl, you're pretty solid for your age.'

Although rare, seasonings such as sugar and salt are sometimes mixed in.

It is rare in this kind of market, but those sold in the back alleys are often mixed up.

If you buy them without checking inside, you will find that they are not what you expect to find inside. It is often said that only the upper part is real and the lower part is mostly sand.

Of course, stores in such markets would not do such a thing, but it is important to check everything.

Even though the price is affordable for common people, it is surely rather expensive.

Yes, no problem. Thank you very much.

Ira, having properly checked the contents, presented the three silver coins to the shopkeeper.

The owner did not mind that he had checked the contents, but said, 'Thank you! He accepted it with a smile.

'Well, all that's left is the fruit.

'Yes, that's right.

Me and Ira move around, Ira looking at the fruits to buy.

In the meantime, I looked at the grimoire shop across the street, just out of curiosity.

A grimoire is a tool that is imbued with magical power by a wizard.

It is a very useful tool that can cause magical phenomena by drawing magic letters on a magic stone, which can be taken from a demon, as an energy source.

Simple mechanisms such as producing water or fire are still affordable even for common people.

However, offensive magic and complex magic to create defensive magic are quite expensive.

The cheapest one is said to cost more than fifty gold coins, so common people like me will never be able to afford them.

Well, I don't want to fight. As long as I can spend my time leisurely and happily working at an inn, I am fine.

But there is a magical tool that even I want.

It is a magical tool that can emit heat for a long time and a magical tool that can emit hot or cold air.

With these, I can spend hot summers and cold winters leisurely.

Especially in winter, sleeping in an attic with thin walls and no fireplace is quite difficult.

I would definitely like to get a magical tool that has a heating effect.

I glance at the magical tools lined up in the store.

A grimoire that can produce warm air. Sixty gold coins.

A magical tool that emits cold wind. Seventy gold coins.

And if you need a large magic stone as an accessory, the price will increase even more. .......

It's not something we can afford, I'm afraid.

''Are you looking at magic tools again?

As I was thinking about the price and letting out a sigh, Ira came over to see if he had finished his shopping.

'That's right. I wanted this magical tool that can emit warm air and this magical tool that can emit cold air.

When I pointed at the price, Ira frowned as soon as he saw the price.

There's no way we can afford something that expensive. Such things are bought by rich merchants and aristocrats.

'But if I had one of these, I could sleep more comfortably. In hot summers, cool air cools the room. In the cold summer, the room is warmed by hot air. ......

'Tori is obsessed with the weirdest things, isn't she?

Ira looks at me with a subtle expression as I speak passionately.

Inconvenience is fine once you get used to it, but it is the human heart that wants to live in luxury if possible.

I want to have magic tools to live a comfortable and carefree life.

There is nothing wrong with having goals to enrich your life.

I will work hard to buy this grimoire.

Of course, I will not work as I did in my previous life.

In this life, I will work leisurely to earn money.

Sadly, such a normal thing is not possible in my previous life, but in this world, where everything is so sketchy, it can be done.

Yes, work moderately this time and live a carefree and happy life.

That's the basic premise.

'......Well, then we should head for the fruit shop as a first step towards that.

''Why not?''

Laid-back life and fruits. I don't know how to make sense of this.

I look at her with a dubious expression, and Ira gives me a puzzled look.

Souvenirs for Letty. Abel, you've been so absorbed in talking about foodstuffs that you've forgotten all about them.

'...... Oh.'

I forgot too.

If I had gone back to the inn, Letty would have been in a bad mood and I would have been in trouble.

I leave the grimoire shop and hurry to buy Letty's favorite fruit.

It is important to keep your promises to your family in order to have a comfortable life. It's not a promise I made, but I'll follow up on it.

I'll follow up with you.

'Well, I'm leaving! Keep up the good work at night, Tori!

'Yes, yes, be careful.

After we finish our shopping, my dad and I see Ira off.

'Wow, Ira's gotten so cute!

''Yes, that's right.''

I watch Ira disappear into the crowd and agree with my father's words.

Then he pokes me in the side and says in a hushed voice

'...... how's it going from Tori's point of view?

What do you mean by 'how'?

You just agreed with my dad and said she's cute.

'Hmm, you're not very perceptive. Don't you fall in love with Ira?

'Er, I'm not so sure about that. ......'

It's true that Ira is cute and I feel comfortable with her, but maybe it's because of my previous life, but I don't feel like thinking about such things at my age.

You're already twelve years old. It's time to have a love affair or two, isn't it?

Yes, 16 is the age of adulthood in this world.

That means I am almost a high school student in my previous life.

It is natural for my father to worry about my love life.

However, my true intention is to enjoy my life while working more leisurely than having a family.

I don't want to tell my father this because he might get angry with me.

I mean, I don't think it's good to have two loves, right?

What are you talking about? When I was young I had a lot of women come on to me...''

'Does your mother know about that?'

'Hey, wait a minute! You don't leak a conversation between a man and a man to a woman, do you?

We went back to the inn, trying to avoid the topic at all costs.
