n＝＝＝＝＝

nMy level increased considerably, and my skill proficiencies rose too .

nA new entry,【Contracted Beasts】appeared .

nAnd, strangely, I have obtained【Water Magic】 .

nBecause its proficiency is not in the single digits, I think it means that I didn’t learn it naturally, but it’s something that I was given . It’s not something the Wind God Syl could give me directly, but I think he somehow has his hands in it .

nSpeaking of Water Magic, it’s something Allen and Elena have, but never learned how to use it .

nBut, unlike the advanced knowledge about Wind Magic that was implemented into me, I have little to no knowledge about Water Magic…

nIn the first place, because all the knowledge about the use of magic was implemented, I have no idea how to teach them .

nWould they sell magic books in the bookstores? Let’s look for a bookstore later .

n「「O~ne, two~, three~, fo~ur, five~ ……… ten!」」

nI put the teaching of magic aside for now and taught Allen and Elena numbers .

n「Yes, well done . This is a copper coin . What goes after 10 copper coins?」

n「「This!」」

n

n

n「「Ehehe~」」

nIn the beginning, I thought it would be nice if I could teach them to count up to 100, but the two learned it just like that .

nTherefore, I greedily taught them to count up to 10,000♪

nAnd then, I lined up coins by ten side by side, 10 Copper coins, 10 Large Copper coins…… first of all, I taught them about five kind of coins .

n「Then, next is 54G」

n「「N, this……… here!」」

n「Correct~」

n「「Yatta~」」

nWhen I ask for a specific amount, Allen and Elena correctly count and present me with 5 Large Copper coins and 4 Copper coins .

nThey were nervously presenting the coins at first, but they got the gist of it after doing it for several times, and now they have confident expressions .

nWhen I pat their heads while saying『You did well』, the two look very happy .

nSeriously adorable!!

n「Then, if I shopped for 26G with this?」

n「「N, umm…… this!」」

nI only taught them about five kinds of coins, but they accurately grasped their value .

nTherefore, this time, I handed them a Silver coin and asked them to return me the correct amount . The two correctly returned me 7 Large Copper coins and 4 Copper coins .

n

n

nNot only addition, but they are also able to subtract . Aren’t they amazing?

nIf they were able to come this far, putting it into practice follows, right?

n◇ ◇ ◇

n「Allen, Elena . Is there something you want to buy?」

nWe went to the shopping street at once .

nThe store we went to first deals in dried food . They are selling the dried fruits Allen and Elena often eat for snacks .

nThe shop assistant is a middle-aged woman, and because this woman always looks at Allen and Elena with gentle gaze when we are here, I have decided on this shop to be Allen’s and Elena’s first shopping place .

n「Welcome . Have you found what you want?」

nSure enough, the woman matched the children’s eyes and picked up the jar with products, so it’s easier to see .

n「Can you show what you want and say『Please』, Allen?」

n「Un! This! Please!」

nAllen says while pointing at an apricot-like dried fruit in the jar .

n「Yes . Shuri fruit, is it? How many would you like?」

n「Umm……… five!」

nAfter Allen was asked about the number of pieces he wanted, he glanced at me first, so I showed him “5” with my palm . Then, Allen correctly answered the woman with the right number .

n「5 pieces, is it? That will cost you 75G」

n「Urmm…… here!」

n「Ara? …… Maa! It’s precise! How admirable~」

nThe woman got surprised the moment Allen took out the money . She then looked at me, and I nodded at her with the meaning of request . My meaning seemed to have conveyed properly, as she faced Allen right away .

nAllen took out coins from his pouch and handed them to the woman . The woman received the money, got surprised that the amount was right and praised Allen .

n「Next is Elena, okay?」

n「Un! Elena, this! Please!」

n「Yes . Riigo fruit . How many would you like?」

n「Five!」

nElena who could observe the exchange between the woman and Allen had a smoother time .

n「Yes . Then, that makes 60G」

n「Ummm…… here!」

n「Yes . That’s just right . How admirable~」

nThe woman also praised Elena well .

nIt really helps she praised them equally .

n「「We did it~?」」

n「Un . You did really well~ Admirable, admirable」

nBecause the two clung to me after storing the dried fruit in their pouches, I patted their heads a lot .

n「Thank you very much for going along」

nWhen I thank the woman who helped Allen and Elena with their first shopping, the woman said『Don’t worry about it』 .

nTogether with the thanks, I bought some dried fruit, nuts, spices and fine powders in a reasonable amount .

nWe went to the bookstore next .

nAlthough the objective is to purchase books related to magic, I also need to buy some novels .

nI haven’t read anything since arriving at Aetherdia . I read dozens of novels a month back on Earth, so I’m already missing it .

nThe paper is also produced on Aetherdia, so it’s quite inexpensive . Because of that, the books are sold at reasonable price .

nA paper is a high-class item, and books are luxuries! I’m glad it wasn’t that kind of pattern .

nGood amount of books is displayed on the bookshelves .

nBooks about magic, medicinal plants, monster books with pictures and their special traits, poetry and scriptures . Of course, there are also many in the novels genre . Maa~ most of the contents of the stories are about adventures and love, though .

nAfter looking around the shop for a while, I found『Magic Basics』『List of Incantations』, these two books .

nNot necessary for me, but I thought it would be easier to explain to Allen and Elena, so I brought encyclopedias like『Complete Works of Plants』『Complete Works of Monsters』and returned to the inn .
