Magic Tower (3)

+++

While Amelia was seeking sleep with the attachment blanket, Paulen came out to the villa’s yard and taught exercise to the slime and sparred as usual.

“Good! Let’s do only this much today.”

‘Yeah!’

At Paulen’s words the slime immediately stopped the movement trying to go for the next tackle.

Because clearly remembered the words of strolling around the Magic Tower when finishing even the sparring.

“But became regrettable. To think could bring only one because of inventory capacity.”

In heart wanted to bring all the dumbbells and barbells prepared for the slime.

However, there was a limit to the inventory’s capacity.

Food and luggage that must prepare essentially.

Paulen’s main weapon the large shield and sword.

Excluding items for just in case besides that bringing one set of dumbbells for the slime was the most.

Paulen was extremely regrettable about that.

‘Ugh! If a month’s time Buduri would have been able to raise at least one stage more.’

Motivated and does not complain even once and does not avoid.

Rather the appearance of the slime trying to lift the dumbbells motivatedly made Paulen feel intense thrill.

‘Because a monster growth is also fast so there is the taste of raising.’

Poyong! Poyong!

The slime jumped twice and went over Paulen’s shoulder and went up on the head.

“Want to be on the head today?”

Burrurrur!

‘Yeah!’

The slime that answered trembling increased the tentacles not yet put in and brought in front of Paulen’s eyes.

‘Paulen! Magic Tower stroll! Let’s go!’

“Yes yes, saying let’s go sightseeing?”

‘Buduri really overflows with curiosity.’

“First let’s change clothes and go. Anyway if continuing to wander in this appearance people will also be surprised.”

After arriving at the Magic Tower, since not yet changed clothes Paulen was wearing the paladin’s armor as is.

Not the Holy City but if wandering wearing armor in the Magic Tower people might be surprised looking at people and might gather gazes excessively.

After lightly changing clothes, Paulen put the slime on the head and started the stroll.

The Magic Tower.

A place where mages research and gather for a higher realm.

But the Magic Tower no longer meant only the tower where mages are.

Around the high Magic Tower a market formed and people lived and a so-called city arose centered on the Magic Tower.

Therefore, the Magic Tower had 2 meanings.

One the meaning of the mages’ huge laboratory the original meaning.

The other meant the name of the city centered on the Magic Tower.

And what Paulen said was the latter case.

Of course even the Magic Tower the laboratory could sightsee if Paulen requests.

‘Because will go with the saintess tomorrow.’

Since arrived at the Magic Tower the one with the highest status in the Magic Tower.

There is a schedule to meet the Magic Tower lord tomorrow too.

Anyway will enter the Magic Tower to meet the Magic Tower lord so decided to show the streets today.

Paulen thought while wandering the streets.

‘As expected the atmosphere is different from the Holy City.’

The Holy City is a city devout believers form.

A place overflowing with smiles but rather than lively a harmonious atmosphere was large.

And the Magic Tower’s atmosphere.

“Hihihit, there is a good magic tool don’t you think of buying once?”

“This is the scroll that fireball flies right away if just unfolding right?”

“Of course! Ah, still be careful of the unfolding direction. Because you can become grilled.”

“No, why is one shoe this expensive!”

“Not even thinking of the enchant value and the life value arising when wearing!”

Even if noisy a dangerous feeling was also full somewhere.

Of course not a dangerous feeling that makes feel threat to life.

‘A feeling of trying to sell expensive somehow and make a big hit.’

Magic tools that need special skill to make.

Scrolls that make unfold magic without magic power though only once.

Because all these are skills that cannot be easily followed magic tool or scroll merchants had a tendency to sell as expensive as possible to those who do not know the value of magic well.

‘Magic tools! Many!’

Meanwhile the slime’s interest in magic tools had increased a lot after hearing the explanation from Gracie.

Even the transaction scene trying to sell expensive somehow against customers interest was focused on the magic tools on the display stand rather than the conversation content.

Poyong!

Pyong!

The slime moved to Paulen’s shoulder and took out tentacles and pointed at one magic tool shop.

‘There! Want to see!’

“Huh? Want to go to that shop?”

‘Yeah!’

Burrurrur!

Paulen moving toward the shop the slime wants.

That place was a stall magic tool shop an elderly wearing a robe operates.

“Hehehe. Welcome, customer. Is there a magic tool you want?”

The elderly rubbed both hands and flowed laughter.

“Came to sightsee a bit because wondrous, elder.”

“I see. But in my eyes the customer is more wondrous. Taking a slime around on the shoulder.”

The elderly raised the head and looked at the slime that went up on Paulen’s shoulder.

“The body looks sturdy but seems there is talent in monster taming.”

Taming.

That was a skill ones who have the occupation of trainer that can be said very rare possess.

So to speak trainers who tame monsters and fight together.

To say representative trainers there were knights who ride wyverns also called dragon knights and wolf riders who ride wolf-type monsters, wargs.

Even monsters without intelligence enough to use the system if taming well could follow people’s instructions.

However, because dangerous and takes a lot of hands the number was extremely few.

“Hahaha! Not taming, elder. Thanks to Buduri being friendly to people.”

“Hmm? A slime friendly to people? By any chance from an eccentric village?”

Eccentric village.

That was the nickname of the village raising slimes and obtaining help in life.

Because a village raising monsters saying seems helpful in real life not the purpose of hunting or fighting through taming looked bizarre and wondrous to anyone.

“No. From the Holy City.”

“Holy City?”

“Understand the heart. More than that can you explain in detail what effects the magic tools here have, elder?”

“Ooh. Gathering magic tools?”

“No. I do not use magic tools and just curious.”

“Hmm.”

Dissatisfaction was revealed on the elderly’s face.

That is, asking to kindly explain all the products without even buying makes only useless effort.

Paulen who has biased thoughts about muscles, but besides that has correct character as a paladin.

“Please a kind explanation, elder.”

Paulen taking out the tip and handing to the elderly.

An amount that cannot even buy one magic tool the elderly sells.

“Hehehe! If explaining again!”

Just an amount more than enough to explain the magic tools.

‘Magic tools! Explanation!’

Burrurrur!

The slime rejoiced at being able to hear the explanation of new magic tools again.

▶Why do human guys like such round things so?

▶Ah~ don’t know currency?

▶Humans exchange items with that and so.

[Squishy Queen]▶That that! Arrogant humans! Daring to think the same kind a tamed monster!!!

▶Having a seizure again.

▶lmao where did the dignified act done in the broadcast go?

[Squishy Queen]▶Dignified act! Did not do any act!

▶Scratch?

[Squishy Queen]▶This nooooom!

While the chat window was flowing as usual the elderly was chattering and explaining the magic tools he is selling.

“This is a bracelet that raises flame resistance. Not supplying with magic stones but sucking the wearer’s magic power and has the function of making get hurt less by injuries received by flame. And this side...”

Magic tools that make have resistance to each attribute.

Shoe-type magic tools that make a foothold under the feet if granting magic power and enable 2-stage jump.

Magic tools that can shower anywhere by emitting water consuming the magic power contained in the magic stone etc.

There were various magic tools.

‘The shoe side is a bit tempting.’

Paulen had interest in the shoe-type magic tool that enables 2-stage jump.

However, since cannot not wear the paladin’s armor originally wearing as combat clothes gave up in the heart.

Around when the elderly finishes all the explanation, Paulen had one question and asked.

“But does this magic tool that makes water come out sell well here?”

“Hehehe! Know what saying. There are mages who use water but thinking whether such a magic tool not even used at home would sell?”

“Yes.”

“Think well. To wash need considerable water. If trying to create that one by one with magic power rather later magic power becomes insufficient and might have a big nose.”

“Oh.”

“Moreover the water created here can of course be drunk as drinking water! Convenient even when water runs out, and very useful when wanting to do soup cooking during travel! Hehehe! Unexpectedly this is the product that sells the most.”

“Indeed would be so.”

Paulen immediately accepted at the elderly’s explanation.

Then the elderly’s eyes flashed.

‘Those eyes... watching whether to buy or not!’

“Moreover if the needed magic stone is a size that can put inside this cover! Any magic stone! Even unprocessed magic stones possible! Well, efficiency would drop but isn’t being able to use important!”

“...”

Hearing the elderly’s words Paulen thought carefully then opened the mouth.

“How much is this?”

+++

“...So bought this?”

“Hahaha, the heart was tempted!”

Around when evening became.

Amelia who woke from sleep looked at the portable water generation magic tool Paulen bought when strolling with the slime.

“Does this really have use?”

“Unexpectedly when traveling around would be needed.”

“...Paulen usually is together with me in the Holy City so not that much case of traveling around.”

“Amelia, as a paladin I must protect you from danger. And this magic tool! Is for when Amelia by any chance is thirsty or wants to eat cooking like soup! Cannot guarantee always wandering outside riding a carriage comfortably like this time. People always prepare for just in case...”

“...”

At Amelia’s cold gaze Paulen stopped the excuse.

“Ahem. Men cannot help but have the heart excited at such travel tools, Amelia.”

“As a saintess will accept the paladin’s honest confession. More than that let’s eat dinner. Today I will make.”

“Amelia? Could cook?”

“I was also an ordinary believer before becoming a saintess. There were times in charge of meals. Just no case of cooking after becoming a saintess.”

‘5 years passed, but skill didn’t rust?’

The materials to cook had heard explanation that there is a magic tool that stores ingredients when visiting the villa.

And since confirmed there are materials inside no need to see the market separately.

“Will make soup but is Paulen okay?”

“I eat anything well.”

‘Cooking!’

Pyong!

Poyong! Poyong!

The slime reacted at the words of cooking.

Took out tentacles and the slime lifted the magic tool on the table and moved to the kitchen.

“Buduri?”

And the slime put the magic tool on the pot in the kitchen then.

‘Water!’

Click!

Swaaaaa!

Operated the magic tool and filled water inside the pot.

“Puhut. Seems Buduri also wants to help cooking?”

“B, Buduri! Turn off for a moment! If putting too much water no!”

Amelia hurriedly ran to the kitchen.
