Shopping
Pucit Street, which has the largest crowd, even within the shopping district of the Capital of Veybar. Street performers showing off various tricks by the road, musicians playing the music they like, and the smell of all kinds of food tickling the nostrils of passersby.
“It’s a noisy street as always huh. However……it sure is strange”
Asch focuses on his five senses and enjoys the jumbled disharmony noises. No, rather, that’s precisely what gives this place harmonyーー
“All the clattering noises, they sure are noisy huh!”
“……not as much as you”
He dismisses Mira, who one can go as far as to say is absolutely unappreciative, and starts going around while looking back and forth at the shops and the list.
“Asch-san, Asch-san, doesn’t that look delicious?”
“……”
He passes a stack of Rale notes to the happy-go-lucky butler, who pulls his sleeves while staring at the Keysk beef bun, enthralled.
“So, so much!? Do you like them that much”
“No way, right. Listen up, go and buy it as profligately as possible. You can buy all kinds of things you want besides that as well. Precious metals, dresses, whatever you like”
“Eeh!? Bu, but I……”
“Don’t talk so much. It’s your job. I’m not paying for everything for your sake. I just do it because there’s the need to do it”
“U゛―――u, understood”
Mira goes to the shop and starts lining up, happily.
“Now then……”
Judging from the looks of it, this street doesn’t sell what he desires. However, this place is composed not only of items but merchants as well. People who are trying to search for profligate customers and trick them. People who sell rare goods. His hope is for the latter, but there’s no particular problem even if the former gets hooked.
He’s paying attention to Mira and, 10 Keysk beef buns.
“How much of a glutton is she, good grief”
While muttering something like that, he watches over her following actions. When it comes to something a woman wants, it’ll be precious metal or the sorts next. No, dresses. Well, whichever it is, he wants her to buy as many expensive items as possible, without unleashing the stingy side of her.
・・・
“Haa……haa……sorry to keep you waiting”
10 Keysk buns. 20 bags of Terasci sweets. 15 fish cans. 10 carrots. 3 kilograms of pork. And various others……
All food.
“……are you an idiot―――――――――!”
“Didn’t you say I can buy whatever I want!?”
“I did say that! Anything, you know, anything! Why did you only buy food with that!?”
“I love them!”
“Do you only have a craving for food! There are other things you want as well, like precious stones and dresses, right!?”
“Right now, I am hungry!”
“Like I care! Go and buy precious stones and dresses from now on!”
“Understood!”
“Wai……you, wha, what are you doing”
“Please hold it. Let’s eat it afterwards. Ah, it’s fine to eat the Keysk buns first”
Mira lined the food she bought just now around Asch, surrounding him, and ran off with all her strength.
“……”
It felt as though, he became one of the food ingredients.
