He Is a Master Who Can’t Handle a Slave Properly

chapter 8



8 – outing (3)

The next place I arrived with a shopping cart was a weapon shop.

“Huh? Yes, what should I give you?”

Wasn’t it that I suddenly heard a voice from underneath me, awkwardly looking around in front of the store?

“Wow?!”

Wasn’t there an old dwarf with a shaggy beard and a face full of soot?

“Oops. Did I forget that you can’t see it well for the knuckles? hehehe. Looking at your outfit… it looks like you’re going to explore a dungeon?”

Her mouth twitched, and she turned to me. With her hands full, it would be difficult to do anything. Before she could even speak, she took the items out of her hands one by one.

Tak, tak, she brushed her hands off once, strode into the store and slightly bowed her waist.

“I need sturdy gloves and boots, and leather armor.”

A dwarf who received a spell, no… It’s obvious that he’s a dwarf no matter how he looks or works, so let’s say he’s a dwarf. The dwarf picked up the items from the low shelf and lifted them one by one.

“Hey… Let’s see. These are gloves and boots made of normal leather. Although they are sturdy, they will break quickly if handled roughly, so either buy a new one or have it repaired, or whatever.”

She received them and touched them with her hand, then nodded.

“It’s kobold leather. It’s cheap and durable. It’s a good starting point for the lower classes.”

“Heh, it’s obvious that they’re newbies, so they’re giving them that on purpose.”

With one sniff, he continued to hold the items in his hands, staring at her as she scrutinized them, then turned and stumbled into the store.

Just looking at him like that, didn’t he scream and scream?

“Oh, what are you guys doing? You have to go all the way inside the store to see things, right?!”

Ellie gave me a slightly awkward smile and was about to enter the store, then reached out to me.

“Give me the things. I’ll get them and put them away.”

“What are you talking about? A stout man can’t even carry luggage. Don’t stand there like a man at a distance and look around. He told me to come in quickly, throw away everything at random, and come look for things. That’s because the lady seems to be good at looking at things. come first.”

I was blown away by being beaten for no reason, but the warmth that suddenly wrapped around my hand surprised me.

That fleeting gentle touch quickly took out the bags he was holding and placed them in a corner of the store.

His fluttering ears and rosy cheeks caught his attention, and soon the sound that pierced his ears ruined the moment.

“I did something, so I’m going to salt it very much. I came here to buy something, did I come out? Huh?”

I could only follow her with a smile on her face that still seemed to be bewitching, even though I was getting a fever from the high-pitched voice that rang in my head.

“These days, young people all bring a mate, uhh… they don’t even have time to look at things, but they just stare at their faces.”

The mumbling dwarf soon tapped the leather armor the mannequin was wearing.

“This one is made of cowhide. It’s tough, so it should be strong. This is for a lady. Check it out and buy it, huh? There are several sizes.”

Taking off the robe and handing it to me, she took off the armor from the mannequin and put it on, tightened the belt to fit her body, and tapped the armor.

He nodded as if he was satisfied and was about to unfasten his belt, but soon noticed my gaze and turned to me.

“…does it suit you?”

Cancer, don’t hang out. I admired her body line, which was well exposed even when wearing armor. In particular, that narrow waist was unbelievably great, but…

“Once you’ve tried everything on, take it off immediately and put it down! You too, come and try it on quickly. If you’re going to look at weapons, it will take longer, but these guys are very…”

I hurriedly put on my armor and tightened my belt, pushed by his annoyance as he urged me while shaking my head, and I felt it stick to my body.

It’s a feeling I’m not used to, but when I tapped on my body, I definitely felt reassured.

“wait a minute…”

Approaching from behind, she grabbed me by the shoulders and turned me halfway to face her.

“No problem. I think I can do it with these two armors.”

“Then, do that. Now, the bag is here, so put it in here and move quickly.”

He handed me a bag the size of his height in both hands and quickly moved his feet and disappeared to the other side of the store.

I put two pieces of leather armor in my bag and followed. There were several shelves with weapons hanging randomly.

There, she looked closely at the weapons, and then she picked up a weapon that looked unusual and handed it to me.

“Aha. The lady knows something well. It’s a ‘war pick’. It’s one that can be smashed like a hammer on one side and a pickaxe on the other. There’s nothing like it in the lower classes. It’s a blunt weapon that I can give you, so it’s a good thing for kids like you guys, but I’ll need a better weapon once I start moving down the proper hierarchy… but that should be enough for now.”

“Would you like to give it a try?”

As she said, the warpic was a very interesting weapon. With one side I could break something like a stone, and with the other it seemed like I could do the same.

Satisfied with the weight she could carry with one hand and moving around, she had brought a battle hammer and shield, as well as a small bow and quiver.

Among them, the highlight was none other than the battle hammer. It was a much larger, angular and heavy looking object compared to the warpic, but she could easily hold it with one hand.

“…Isn’t that heavy, isn’t it?”

“Yes, it’s a familiar weapon. If you don’t mind, would it be okay to buy two daggers? For emergencies… are there too many?”

I wondered if the dagger was too much, but the word non-use made me think again. In the end, I thought it would be better to live, so I nodded my head.

“…Buy them if you need them. What about a shield?”

“If you wield only a war pick and wield it, you could get hurt by a goblin who attacks with a weapon. A clumsy attack can easily be blocked with a shield. Would you listen?”

“Was it something I was going to use?”

“Yes, I’ll use this side’s hammer and bow. Usually, I’ll support you from the front, and if I need something, I’ll support you from the back.”

Is it because of her mood that she suddenly looks so big? I stared at her handing over the shield while holding the hammer, mesmerized for a moment, then picked up the shield.

It didn’t seem like it would be too much trouble to hold it with one hand, but imagining holding it and wielding a war pick didn’t make a lot of sense.

“You need arrows too?”

“Please.”

With a rattle, rattle, holding a bunch of arrows and moving waddlingly, he moved his hands busily after arranging the items on the low board.

“Gloves, boots… warpices…”

When I lined them up, I was taken aback by the large amount, and when I looked at her, she smiled at me.

The quantity is good, but the price was quite a concern. Of course, she must have had her own thoughts, so she chose these items, but let’s try to help her as she puts on the scroll again and arranges the items she put aside in her bag –

“Take out the money bag, you bastard. The calculation is complete. One gold coin.”

“A gold coin?!”

“Why is it expensive? Can’t you pay?”

No, just the opposite. It’s too cheap. Even if you put it all together, you can’t even get it close to the price of that long sword.

“I, is the price too burdensome?”

I woke up to her voice, took out a gold coin from my pocket, and gently placed it in the Dwarf’s open hand.

“hehehe, isn’t it right. I think we’ll see each other often in the future, so please take good care of me. As long as you don’t die, hehehe.”

“Wait, I have a question for you!”

He turned his back and called him to stop him as he tried to enter the room.

“Yes?”

“How much do you have a long sword?”

“Long sword? Fifty silver coins if you’re talking long sword. So…five thousand dicats. It’s a little expensive.”

“Uh, why…”

It doesn’t look different from that long sword at all, except for the fancy decorations, there’s nothing different at all.

“Why, Rani? Have you ever been ripped off?”

“I paid five gold coins…”

At that moment, wasn’t the dwarf rolling on the floor holding onto his stomach?

“Uh ha ha ha ha! Gold, five gold coins? Five gold coins?! That’s for a rookie like this!”

As he knocked on the floor, he wiped away a tear once, then changed into a serious expression in an instant and stood up shaking his butt.

“Someone sells things like that. Are there any other things then?”

The longsword at that time was lost due to the incident, but when I said it was no different from the longsword on display, he nodded as if he had guessed.

“They seem to be turning their backs on newbies quite a bit. So… you mean the one near the plaza? It’s popular only with the sons of nobles. It’s well decorated. It’s useless. “

He gave me a strong warning and shook his hand, telling me to leave, and I had no choice but to leave the store trudging along with my luggage.

I entered the room with a lot of collapse, and then I heard her voice.

“Uh, by any chance… could you tell me about that time, if it’s not rude?”
