Chapter 176: 176 Episode 176 "I tried to turn a failed work I bought at the" Aristocratic Market "into a bargain.".txt

I'm going to upgrade my equipment while I'm in Ilgafa.

I said.

When I put together the rewards for the 'Next Lord Royeld Rescue Quest' that I received from the lord and the rewards for Ilisu's 'Golden Rabbit Capture Quest', it's quite a bit of money.

The items are better in the port city of Ilgafa, the trading center, so let's finish our shopping while we still have time.

''Strengthening the equipment is ...... perhaps a countermeasure against the 'Heroic Quest'?　Mr. Nagi.

I don't like it, Cecil.

I nodded at Cecil's words.

The 'wise goblins' I met in the village of the beastmen were looking for a demon dragon dungeon as a 'heroic quest'. The reason why they attacked the village was to get the items needed for it.

In the end, Rita got the item.

But that guy with the Transformation and Acceleration abilities was definitely a formidable opponent.

That's why we need to assume that an enemy of that level is wandering around, and we need to take countermeasures.

I have no intention of getting involved in it. But I want to do what I can. It's not always possible for my 'cheat skills' to get through.

Aine agrees. I think it's a good idea to cover their weaknesses with an item.

Iris agrees. Especially since Iris is a weak fighter and I don't want to slow you all down.

"I'm also going to fly through it with more zubar and zukunn and penetrate it, gogogogagaaaaaan...... zubar dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I need a weapon that feels like ... (silence).

Aine and Iris both seem to agree.

Also, that in Raphilia is a modern weapon of destruction for all intents and purposes. We don't have them on this world, do we?

Speaking of which, what you just said reminds me of something.

Iris clapped her hands with a plop.

'Just now, I heard that the merchants are opening a special market in town?　Big brother.

"Special market?

''Yes. I heard that the merchants have opened an invitational market for the nobles and merchants who come to the next lord's party to buy rare items. The nobles must have left by now. There may be some bargains left behind.

Sounds interesting. Does that include us?

'Let's take care of that on the Illith side. As a very commonplace adventurer, introduced by the Ilgafa Lordship House.

All right. I'll do it. Iris.

That's why we decided to go to the "special market" in the port town to buy equipment.

We decided to go to the 'special market' that was open in the port town to buy equipment.

''Is Master really not interested in the 'Hero's Quest'?''

While walking next to me, Rafilia asks me.

''It's only 'just in case' that you prepare your equipment, right, Nay-kun?''

On the other side of me is Aine.

She's dressed in her usual maid's outfit and is peering into my face.

This time I had Aine, who knows a lot about weapons, and Rafilia, who is used to direct and magical combat.

Cecil used great magic a while ago, so I want to give him a break, and Iris might have a merchant who knows his face.

Besides, with Aine, we can buy equipment for Rita, Cutlass, and Letitia.

Aine has complete knowledge of the party members' clothing sizes. It's so much easier to buy ready-made clothes and ask Aine to adjust their measurements, and she'll make them fit right away. It's fine to buy weapons and armor, but let's ask Aine to give you a look here so that you don't end up with a size that doesn't fit.

''Of course, I'm going to ask Aine to look over the equipment for me, just in case. I don't intend to get involved in 'The Brave Quest'.

I replied to Aine and Rafilia.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. If there is another dragon in this world, I should at least have some knowledge about it.

I remember reading a story once with Lady Iris about slaying a demon dragon.

What's it like?

It was a story about a chosen hero, who defies his lover and goes to slay the demon dragon. However, the author has passed away, so there were no detailed descriptions of the demon dragon.

'There is a 'demon dragon' in the legend of Saint Delilira, but what did she say?

'Sure, there were such things, and Delilira and her party defeated them, but they were just rare demons. They said they weren't like mythical beings like celestial dragons and sea dragons.

At least he wasn't amazing enough to be involved with someone like 'Demon Dragon Dungeon'.

If that's the case, I wonder what kind of 'demon dragon' in 'Hero's Quest' is.

Anyway, my basic stance remains the same. If there is a need, we will investigate, but we won't meddle with it without a request. Our goal is to live as slowly and peacefully as possible without working. That's all.

It's the Wheel of Fortune!

Aine and Raphilia matched their voices.

'Rita-san, Cutlass-chan, you'll be in charge of the equipment for Leticia. Aine knows exactly what everyone's body shape is.''

I'm counting on you. Aine.

I can tell you the three sizes.

...... that's fine.

'Of course, I have everyone else's three sizes memorized, right?

............ Yeah.

You want to hear it?　Nah-kun.

Will you tell me if I ask?

I'll tell everyone that you heard that, okay?

Aine smiled mischievously as she said this.

'...... You can just use that knowledge to choose your equipment.

Yeah. It's just so boring being a number.

...... hmm?

Aine turns her head to the side and sniffs, hmmm.

...... You're not up to anything, are you?　Sis.

I can see it. That's the hidden marketplace that Lord Iris told us about. It's the Hidden Market!

Rafilia pointed to a large warehouse.

It's in the shadows of the warehouse district by the port. I've heard that a market is being held there secretly for some people.

I've received an invitation through Iris.

We are neither a nobleman nor a merchant, so I'm sure we wouldn't be turned away from the market even if we entered.

Excuse me. We were introduced to you by the Ilgafa lord's family. ......

We knocked on the door and went into the warehouse.

And there was...

The space was filled with gloom and doom.

...... Huh?

'Ah yes, yes. I've heard of you. You're the adventurer who introduced us to the Ilgafa lord house.

A woman at the entrance greeted us.

But the inside of the warehouse is mostly empty.

Only a few merchants have set up a small stall. There's hardly any merchandise left.

''I'm sorry. We're a market for noblemen. There's hardly any goods for the common adventurer.

The woman in the doorway said.

She looks at us and smiles wanly.

...... That's not very nice.

And the nobles have gone back to their homes early. It's a very good idea to be able to have a good time with them.　So, when you all left, I pulled out all the equipment I could use.

Okay.

So what do we do now?　You're welcome to leave, but...

The woman folds her arms and looks at us.

'If you don't mind me selling out, I'll show you... What would you like to do?

When you say unsold, for example?

How about this one?　I'll give you a discount!

The woman placed a small skill crystal on my hand.

It's 'Insomnia Lv 1'. I worry a lot about this job, so I can't help but awaken ...... it's a skill that makes me feel awake. I'll give you a discount if you want?　There's no point in holding onto it as an inventory.

You really are a sellout: ......

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one. You have two slaves with you, you must be of a decent level, but ...... we are a market for noblemen, so we don't have much time for adventurers.

The woman is snapping her heels in frustration.

She's pale and has dark circles under her eyes.

Maybe 'insomnia' isn't the skill he was using: ....... To work all night long .......

'...... nah-kun. We should get out of this place as soon as possible.

...... I don't like people who underestimate their masters, either.

Aine and Rafilia whisper in my ear.

Hmm. But, since Iris introduced me to them anyway.

Besides, this 'unsold' skill. I'm sure there's a surprisingly good use for this 'unsold' skill.

Insomnia Lv 1

Skill to 'wake up' with 'vigor' in 'worry'

'It's still a useful skill. I'll buy it.

Huh?

The woman's eyes widened.

'If these are unsold, there are some pretty good bargains to be had here. Let's take a look around, since we're going to have to. Aine and Raphilia, too.

If you're so sure...

I don't mind. I'll serve you, Master.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make your life easier," he said, "and if the shopkeeper's cold treatment causes the master's heart to ache, I'll be there to comfort him. That's what my life is all about.

Oh, it's not fair. Miss Rafilia.

Aine hugged her other hand.

You're right. You have decided to buy the items here, so Aine should support you to the best of her ability. If you're tired of shopping, you should soothe him with all your might. That is the way to be a slave to Nah-kun.

That's right. Use this shopping experience as an opportunity to show your loyalty to your master!

"Hey!

Can you stop flirting with ...... without me? ......

The clerk mumbled with a slumped shoulder for some reason.

'It must be ....... This feeling of defeat. I've never felt like this against a common adventurer ...... I'm going to wake up to insomnia again .......

Can I see the merchandise?

'You might be wasting your time, don't you think?　There's hardly anything that can be sold to the common adventurer. Don't just complain because you don't have anything good to sell, okay?

We'll figure out what we're dealing with over here.

All right. Let me show you around.

She invited us into the back of the warehouse.

''This is the 'Sacred Sword Metergillus' that contains the 'Divine Power'!

""Oh,"

This is a sample of... I've already sold the real one.

Yeah. I knew it.

There was a board in front of us, cut out in the shape of a sword. The surface was painted with colors and patterns. The "Sacred Sword Metelgilus" has red lines on it, and it has something that looks like fangs, right? It's instructive.

''Though I don't show the real thing on the surface, though.

You have a system that you can bring to a negotiation?

You know exactly what I mean.

That's because there are no glass cases or burglar buzzers in this world.

You wouldn't display a one-off magic sword, let alone a cheap sword or spear.

''Was this also bought by a nobleman?

"...... buyer's information is confidential,

The guide woman - whose name is said to be Maryse -'s eyes were swimming.

I guess I was right.

''If a nobleman bought ...... 'The Sword of Divine Power,' what's the purpose of ......?

The need for ...... sacred power is usually an anti-undead measure.

...... The sacred power is also effective against the Demon Dragon ...... 'Demonized Dragon', isn't it?

Me, Aine and Raphilia look at each other and mumble.

I guess I'm reserving judgment.

Last time, there was an undead outbreak on the streets, so it might be for that.

I've heard that they also sold magic swords that increase attack power and magic spears. Just like the "Sacred Sword", a full size sample remains. They're all sold out though. The remaining items are at .......

"This spear is not 'sold out', is it?

Oh, ......, is that what you want?

Maryse, the guide, said with a look on her face as if she was trying to stifle a laugh, for some reason.

In front of us was a long, spear-shaped board.

I could tell it wasn't sold out because there was a description in front of the sample.

"The 'magic telescopic spear fetra,' huh?

The sample board gives you a general idea of what it looks like.

The length is a little longer than my arm. A short spear - a short spear in the game.

''When you say 'telescopic spear,' do you mean that it stretches and contracts?

"...... Simasyo. Magical powers de-shrunk.

Why is it cataclysmic?

...... When you talk about it that way, it makes you want it.

''Well, it's certainly something that's within the reach of the average adventurer.

Is it a violation?

'Just so you know, we don't take complaints, do we?　I can't waste my time or return it after I've purchased it, in case I've wasted my time, right?　I'll bring it to you if that's okay with you.

I'd love to see that.

It's good. Weapons for a reason.

Like the ones that got too complicated because the makers were too obsessed with gimmicks. It's been a while since I've made a game that reminds me of the games I used to make in my old world.

I made ....... Or a weapon that was so powerful if you understood the gimmick and used it, but the conditions for activating it were too complicated for anyone to use it. There was ...... a holy sword whose name was an anagram of every character's name, and when equipped in that order, it activated its true power.

Maybe this telescoping spear is also powerful depending on how you use it.

''Aine.''

Yes. Nah-kun.

'I think a spear of this size would be just right for Cutlass to hold, but I'm not sure.

I think it's a good idea. It's lighter than a sword and gives you more time. Cutlass will also be able to fight on horseback.

''I have a question for Raphilia. A magic spear would be sturdy and would allow you to fight ghosts and such, right?

I think so. And you can create your own alter ego with your armor, can't you, Mr. Cutlass?　If that's the case, I think I have a good amount of magic power, so I think I can use this spear as well.

While we were talking about this, Maryse, our guide, came back.

In her hand, she holds a short spear wrapped in a cloth.

'Here you are. Here you are, please try it.

His tone is polite, but the edges of his lips are twitching.

''This is the only thing we have for adventurers, you know. We're a market for the nobility. ......

Saying that, Maryse-san, the guide, opened the cloth that wrapped the spear.

''Oh!''

We screamed.

This is the "Telescoping Spear Fetra"?

It's about the same thickness as a normal spear.

When you hold it in your hands it is ...... light. It's a good idea to make sure that you're not going to be the only one who can do this.

''Do you want me to pour my magic power into it?''

'That would stretch it out. Why don't you try it?

I'll see what I can do.

From hand to spear, you pour the magic into the spear...

Sneaky.

The spear extended, about an inch.

Do you need more magic?　Let's pour a little more magic power into it.

Slurp, slurp, slurp.

"Nah-kun: ......

Master ......

Yeah. It's growing.

You said 'failed' because it's ....... Hmmm.

Maryse, the guide, has a thin smile on her face.

The spear extends slowly. The speed of the spear is like a caterpillar crawling.

...... it's very, very frustrating.

Good luck!　Spear. I'm so close!

You're a spear that can do it!

With Aine and Rafilia cheering him on, the spear gradually extends its length and...

Click.

''Ohhhh!''

Ten minutes later.

The Telescoping Spear Fetra was successfully extended to twice its length.

It's as long as an ordinary spear. It's a bit light in weight, though.

Probably because the handle is double-layered. There's a thin handle inside the normal handle, and it's designed to stretch out with magic power. The fact that it's not mechanical makes it more robust, but...

I think it's too late for that: ......

'That's why I said 'failure'!　Do you have a problem with that!

No, I'm not complaining, okay?

............. We can't show these products to the nobility. If you show it to them, they'll be angry. You don't want to waste your time with this useless stuff.

I think it can be useful, though. If you keep it extended, you can use it as a light, long spear.

Things should be back to normal in 10 minutes, though.

It's a magic spear that can be used against ghosts and magical creatures and such: ......

The tip of the spear is detachable, just like a normal spear, though.

Then use it as a shortspear: ......

'It's much cheaper to buy a regular shortspear, though.

......

......

I'm not sure if it's just the spear with magic on the hilt.

It's a magical weapon, right? ...... would have a 'concept' too.

It's possible that it's a 'magic-powered spear' or something like that.

...... All right.

"Here, please.

Huh!

The name 'Hidden Market' isn't just an excuse. It's a great bargain.

...... ah, ah, ah.

Huh?

Maryse, the guide, why do you look so drawn out?

What do you need it for?

Well, well, well.

"...... I'm showing ...... useless equipment to get rid of the common people, and it's .......

Did you say something?

'No!　Now let's get to the negotiations!

I will. Well then, Aine, nice to meet you.

I got it!　

The conversation came together in a few minutes.

The price of the "Telescoping Spear Fetra" is about twice the price of a normal shortspear. It seems that they were really unsold, and Aine didn't need to negotiate to get a discount.

''Well then, can I try it out for a moment?''

We can't return it, okay?

We own the place now, don't we?

''Yes. Even if it's not the ability you imagined, or if it has some weird effect, it's yours now. No returns or refunds will be accepted, okay!

For some reason, we left the warehouse with an angry Maryse's voice behind us.

'Keep going,' he said, 'and go somewhere less popular.

'Activate!　"Ability rebuild, skill structure!

I decided to confirm the concept of the 'Telescopic Javelin Fetler'.

'Telescopic Javelin Fetla'

A spear that "expands" to "two levels" with "magical power

I knew it. The concept exists properly.

We can rebuild this into a usable item. As for the corresponding skills, I'll use this one you gave me earlier.

"Insomnia Lv 1".

Skill to 'wake up' with 'vigor' in 'worry'

Can we just make it a '4 Concept Cheat Item' for now?　How about this.

Run!　"Fast Reconstruction Quick Structure!

And the result is...

"High-Speed Telescoping Spear Fetlar 2

A spear that is "magically" and "vigorously" and "extended" in two stages.

Residual concepts: 'Worrying' and 'Waking up'

...... awesome, 'hidden market'.

It's indeed a market that I'd recommend Iris.

I didn't think I could get a cheat item in such a short time.

I'll have to thank Iris and the lord, as well as Maryse-san for guiding me later.

''Aine, Raphilia. Is there anyone around?

He's not here. I've already made sure of that on the motion observation test.

There are no people in sight.

Okay, I'm going to do an experiment, okay?

Yes?

So I held up my 'reconstructed' magic spear.

When I lightly poured my magic power into it...

Ta-da!

In an instant, it doubled in length, and stretched.

'Oh.'

One more dose of magic.

Shuffle!

"'Oh. Oh!

This also returned to its original length in an instant.

''Looks like we can use it. This might make fighting Cutlass a lot easier.''

'I think it's good. I can attack from outside the enemy's range.

You've found a bargain.

Mm-hm. Yeah.

Me, Aine and Raphilia look at each other and nod at each other.

I'll keep this in Aine's storage skill 'Sister's Treasure Chest' and personalize it when I meet up with Cutlass.

'Master, please look at the sky.

Suddenly, Rafilia pointed to the sky above us.

Aine and I also look upward with a hint of enthusiasm.

There's a birdie over there.

You're here.

They eat fish all the time at 'Horihara Chicken', and they're delicious with a lot of fat.

I see. So, since you're not popular around here, can Rafilia shoot you down?　Should I give it to you for dinner or ...... no, as a thank you to the lady who guided me to a good product?

I wish I could, but I don't have a bow and arrow at the moment.

I'm sorry to hear that.

I wish I had something else to use.

We looked at the "Telescoping Spear Fetra 2" and smiled.

As I recall, the tip of this spear is interchangeable, right? It should be the same standard as a normal spear.

If that's the case, you'll have to remove the clasp.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make sure that Aine and Rafilia are also separated.

"Extend!　The telescoping spear!

Swoon!

The spear is extended.

Swoosh.

The tip of the spear, which shot out with great force, pierced the flying bird.

When you pour your magic power into it, the "telescopic spear" literally grows "vigorously". If you attach the tip of the spear to the tip of the spear with the clasp removed, the impact will send it flying. I was worried about whether it would fly straight or not, but this spear is designed to be locked in place with a metal fitting so that the tip of the spear can be easily changed. It's very stable.

Probably, the person who made it was also thinking of shooting out the tip of the spear.

'............ kukee'

A hollyhock bird, pierced at the base of its wings, landed in front of us.

"Yes,

Before it falls to the ground, Aine unfolds the leather bag and catches it before it falls to the ground. She also retrieves the spearhead.

''Yeah. That's going to be a trump card.''

It's a waste of a hosaki, so it's a last resort.

It's good to be away from the enemy. It's safe.

So, we returned to the market with the "Hollyhawk" in our hands...

" " " Thank you for introducing me to a great product!　Thank you!　Please eat with everyone!

I handed the bird to Maryse, our guide, who was surprised for some reason.

'What?　Why the birds?　How can I thank you?　Why ......!

Would you have preferred it to be cooked first?

'No, we're staying in the warehouse district, so we can cook right away, though?　Huh?　Why?　How can I thank you?　I don't know what that means, huh?

It's not that kind of thing, it's not that much of an eye-roller.

That "Telescoping Spear Fetra was more than worth the price. The remaining concept of "Insomnia Level 1" could be of some use.

You should at least thank them for introducing you to such a good product.

''So, I'd like to see if there are any other bargains at .......

He-I told you we don't take returns!　You can't buy that spear back now, you know!

I'm not going to return it now. Even if it's ten times the price.

"............ e ...... oh, oh, what's that ......

The woman who was guiding us was shaking her shoulder and looking at us.

And then...

Sure!　Then let's take a look at some more different products. Worthy of oddball adventurers like you guys!　Curiosities that a nobleman wouldn't give a second thought to!

' "'Nice to meet you!

Then, with the help of Maryse, our guide, we looked around and saw things...

It's a good buy." "You can't get this kind of stuff anywhere else." "That's the difference between a 'hidden market' and a 'hidden market'.

It must be ............, this feeling of defeat: ......

'Can I come back when I've saved up enough money?　I'd like to see another item.

'No!　We're going back to the commercial city of Metecal now!

At our words, Maryse, our guide, shook her head. She shook her head absurdly vigorously.

For some reason, she was half in tears.

'We are special merchants for the nobility, sir!　I'm too proud!　If you can sell ...... real unsold curiosities to folks and be happy about it!　I'm feeling so defeated!　Please, please ...... no more ......Please don't do this to me ............

I'm sorry to hear that.　

I would have thought you could buy more interesting products in this market.

But, well, ...... is fine. I've had a good harvest.

Thank you very much!

............ ugh.

Then we left the "Hidden Market" with some market-recommended curiosities in our hands.

So, after returning home, we tried to experiment with various things.
