𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟓𝟏: 𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐬
The gold we received as a reward from the Demon King was enough for the five of us to live comfortably for a year.
We’re quite pleased.
But that doesn’t mean we can just spend it all at once.
We want to repair the clan’s cabin, and we want to save for the future of our four girls.
“But well, since we’ve come all the way to the royal capital of Masrur, a little luxury should be allowed.”
“I agree! I totally agree!”
Asuka enthusiastically agreed.
Of course, the other three did too.
So, we’re touring the bustling streets under Salieri’s guidance.
I thought Gaillia is quite bustling, but there are so many more people here.
Not just the demon race, but beastmen, dark elves, dwarves, hobbits, and other demi-humans, and of course, humans are all walking around normally.
Without any discomfort.
“You can really tell that this is a country ruled by the Demon King, who advocates for everyone to get along.”
“Did you talk about that with His Majesty, Nelnel?”
“It’s a bit late to say this, but isn’t that nickname too silly? I didn’t talk about it. I just read it. We both did.”
I laugh at Salieri’s question.
Demon King Ingral is quite a character who can’t be summed up easily, and he expressed his thoughts in casual conversation.
If I couldn’t read that, then that’s that, he must have thought.
So I mixed my understanding into the conversation.
It was a very heartwarming meeting, wasn’t it?
Among the girls, only Miliaria, who noticed the intentions of me and the Demon King, was rubbing her stomach all the time.
“I want to taste the gourmet food of the demon race!”
“Meisha wants to check out this tool shop.”
“I want a weapon shop! I want a cool breastplate!”
“It seems there is a magic shop in this town. Can you buy magic items with money?”
The four girls are making a fuss.
Well, we can go to all of them.
We have plenty of time.
I was captivated.
In the magic shop we entered under Salieri’s guidance.
It’s the oldest shop in the Kingdom of Masrur, and its selection is unrivaled.
“Is this… real…?”
I stare intently at the wizard’s wand on display.
So much so that I could bore a hole in it.
“It’s rare to see something of this caliber for sale.”
With a sleepy face, Salieri explains to me in a lazy tone.
The name of the wand is [Ice Wolf].
It can fire three of the most powerful magic that Miliaria can use, the ice sphere, at the same time.
Of course, it’s a given that the user must be a caster who can use Icicle Lance, but a three-way Icicle Lance is a feat of a wizard… no, a great wizard.
If Miliaria were to equip this, the combat power of [Hope] would skyrocket.
To put it simply, Icicle Lance is a class of attack magic that can blow off a chimera’s head or defeat an ogre in one hit.
The power is great, but it’s not easy to fire in succession.
But if you can fire three at once, that means you can blow off all three heads of a chimera in one go.
It means that Miliaria alone could defeat the chimera that the five of us barely managed to kill.
“I want it…”
“I want it…”
Miliaria and I stare at the wand.
The problem is the price.
If we buy this, seventy percent of the money we received from the Demon King will be gone.
On the other hand, we probably wouldn’t have thought of buying it normally.
But now we can afford it. That’s why we’re worried.
“Why not! You should buy it!”
“That’s right. It’s a bargain.”
Asuka and Meisha are egging us on.
After all, when they made their debut, they had a history of going into debt to get good equipment.
“I also, for one, agree. We probably won’t have another opportunity to shop with this much money in the future.”
“That’s true…”
This time it’s just a coincidence.
I happened to have some money and was able to find a great item. However, there’s no guarantee that I’ll be given such an opportunity again.
We might not even visit the Kingdom of Masrur again.
“Alright. Let’s buy it as a clan. Then we’ll divide the remaining money among us. Let’s consider it as if there was no reward from Demon King-sama. Is this okay?”
When I look around at the girls, all four of them nod with smiles that suit their personalities.
And so, we were able to obtain an item that was a bit too good for our status.
By the way, if we take this to the Kingdom of Lintrite and sell it, it would probably be worth about fifty times as much.
“But we’re not selling it, right? Absolutely not.”
Miliaria, who received the Ice Wolf’s staff, holds it carefully.
Don’t look at me like that, I have no intention of selling it either.
In other words, I just wanted to say that the Kingdom of Masrur, where we can get such things, is far more advanced in magic technology than the Kingdom of Lintrite.
The people in the royal capital are making a fuss about it being an enemy country, but there’s no way they can win.
If you think about it normally.
“Next is, hmm, food maybe? I know a recommended place.”
Salieri smiled at us, who were a bit excited after buying something amazing.
