Direct Wholesale Purchase At Lazur


 After taking a break and drinking chai, I arrived at Rassha’s store, which sells spices. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

 When I went to buy spices last time there were Salva, Shanaria, and Baghdad waiting for me inside, but as expected I want to think that they won’t be here this time.

 Even if he’s a member of the royal family, he probably doesn’t have that much free time.


「Welcome! Ah, Salva-sama’s friend.....!」


 As soon as I entered the store, Rassha came over but then she raised her voice in surprise as soon as she saw me.


「Sorry for handing you over last time. Salva-sama asked me to」

「Nah, it’s fine. If anything, I’m sorry for the inconvenience because of me」


 I’m sure that Rassha and her family were feeling really anxious that the second prince and his guards were staying at their store.


「No, we received quite a lot of money as compensation so I feel quite lucky you know? And Salva-sama is so handsome!」

「Ah, is that so」


 I thought she would be greatly troubled over getting involved with the mess with Salva, but it seems to have been a good development for her.

 Un, she has such a strong commercial spirit and doesn’t seem to mind it at all.


「By the way, they are not here today, right?」

「They are not! But, he told me to call his guards if you were to come to the store」

「……can I just buy some spices and go home?」

「If you do that then the remuneration of the store will decrease and I will get scolded, please don’t do that」


 Apparently, Salva is giving money to this store in order to make contact with me.

 Just how much do you want to meet me?


「Well, I’m fine with that as long as I can return by evening I’ll just stay here then」

Waaーi, thank you! We’ll also earn big this monthー!」


 When I told her I could stay for a while, Rassha left toward the street happily and called out to the guards who were patrolling. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

 After the guard blew out his whistle, a series of whistle sounds resounded from here and there.


「I think Salva-sama or his guards will come after this」

「R, right」


 It’s scary that they created a system that affects the city’s guards just because of my coming.


「Shall we finish the shopping first then?」

「That’s right. I’d like five bottles each of cumin, cumin seeds, coriander, and turmeric please」

「What’s that!? Haven’t you bought quite a lot previously?」

「I used them all up for my cooking research」

「So it’s like that. You buy a lot so I can give you a discount so it’s 10 gold coins total」

「Thank you」


 That’s a considerable discount of 15 silver coins but, I guess it’s probably as thanks for me staying here to wait for Salva.

 Rassha continues to bottle the spices and pack them in a box.

 I paid 10 gold coins as payment and received boxes of spices.

 I bought a lot so I can store them as stock so it’s also the reason it came down to this price, but if you think of the normal amount, the 3 gold coins Eleonora-neesan gave me would be enough to buy the spices.

 Now I can make as much curry as I want.

 As expected, it’s best to purchase spices directly in Lazur by Teleporting here.


「Then, my business is done here, I’m going home now」

「Eh, wait! That’s not what we agreed on!?」


 Once I got the spices, they were mine.

 When I tried to leave the store’s entrance, a man with a large build appeared as if to obstruct me.


「……that’s right. It would be troubling if Al were to go home」


 Baghdad stretched both of his arms and suddenly picked up the spices boxes I was holding.


「Ahー, Baghdad! Give it back!」

「No」


 I tried to get it back by jumping to get them, but I could do nothing if a man with a large build more than two meters tall were to keep the boxes away from me. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

 I tried to take it back by casting Psychic, but then Baghdad instantly covered the boxes with his mana to resist my magic.

 While I was surprised there was such a way to defend against Psychic, I strengthened my mana to forcibly take control of those boxes.


Nuu.....!」


 Perhaps he realized that I was trying to remove his mana over the boxes, Baghdad resists it by strengthening his mana over the boxes.

 However, not only is the amount of my mana higher than his, it also has more mass so they continue to push his mana aside.


「Wa, wait a minute! The store will end up collapsing if you use such an incredible mana inside!」


 Calming down after hearing Rassha’s words, I saw that the air inside of the store was vibrating intensely and the displayed shelves were rattling so much that the bottles on them were about to fall.

 It seems like that was the aftermath of thick mana clashing.

 As expected, causing physical problems to the store was not something we wanted to see, so we then decided to quickly remove our mana.


「Sorry. We’ve gone a little overboard messing around」

「……I’m sorry」

「That level of ‘messing around’ is too high!」


 If we were seriously going to fight over the boxes, it would simply be a matter of us using different magic spells. 

 The reason I didn’t do it was simply because I enjoyed a contest of strength as a magician.


「This is the first time I experienced Psychic getting resisted like that」

「My control was about to be taken over even though I resisted. As expected of you Al」


 We exchange compliments for our effort and smile wryly. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

 There was a pleasant atmosphere between us since we both respected each other.


「Can you give me back the spices I bought?」

「Al will run away if I give it to you. So, I’m going to keep this」


 After Baghdad sat down on a nearby chair, he placed the wooden boxes at his feet.

 Even if I used Psychic to try and take it instantly, I probably wouldn’t be able to do it due to the chair’s legs.


「So, why does Salva want to see me?」


 Looking around inside the store, there was only me and Baghdad inside, the important people - Salva and Shanaria - were nowhere to be seen.


「……Salva-sama is teaching the soldiers swordsmanship. Please wait here for a bit longer」

「Salva is a swordsman?」

「Salva-sama has mastered the first-class Lazur Royal Swordsmanship」


 I don’t know how amazing this ‘first-class’ is, but I couldn’t imagine that wayward prince teaching others swordsmanship.


「For now, Salva will be late because of instructing others swordsmanship then」

「Yeah」

「How long? I, I have to be back around evening though......」

「He will probably arrive within an hour」


 If I were told to wait for half a day then I would just return since there’s no need to argue about it any further, but I can probably wait casually to wait it out if it’s just around that much time.


「Speaking of which, did you make Dally back in your place?」

「Ah, un! I was able to make it now thanks to Baghdad! It was so well-received by my family members and friends that I ran out of spices in no time at all」

「……is that so. That was good then」


 Even though he lacks expression on his face, if you look at Baghdad closely you can see the corners of his mouth are raised.

 It seems like he’s happy about it in his own way. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com


「That’s right. I modified the recipe, do you want to try it?」


 I haven’t had lunch so I’m getting hungry now.

 Salva won’t arrive for a while anyway so I want to hear his thoughts on the curry bread - or the Dally bread - I secretly developed in My Home.


「Did you use Dally?」

Un

「I’m interested in that. Please let me try it」


 Hearing about a new menu with Dally, Baghdad stands up in interest.

 That’s settled then.


「Rassha, let me borrow the kitchen for a bit, okay」

「If you’re going to cook then cook for my portion too!」

「Okay」


 We entered the employee’s space at the back of the store and decided to go to the kitchen further back.

 Since this place is a spice store, there are a lot of spices stocked in its kitchen.

 There probably is no better kitchen to make curry than this. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
