"What's up?

"No, the oak had a sword. I just thought it was a superior species because I said so."

"Huh? Are you a superior species when you have a sword?

"... it's just likely that"

"Really? Because of that, it seems like it's been about a day since the orcs started holding swords..."

And when I said that, somehow, I felt signs from Mr. Egil that I was making it seem strange.

"How do you know that?

"That's because it's only been about a day since I heard she didn't have it when she first encountered it, before she actually ran into an orc"

"Really..."

So Mr. Egil walked into the back room.

"Duh, where have you been?

and yua came from behind me asking me that a little worried.

"Come on? I don't know"

"Huh?... Could I be the cause?

"That's not true. Maybe, but you'll be back in a while, won't you? I don't think Yua needs to worry, do you?

"Yeah, I guess..."

And Youre seemed anxious, but I have a feeling about this behavior of Mr. Egil. But I didn't know if the same thing would happen this time, so I was waiting for Mr. Egil to come back while I calmed Yua down.

Then a while later, Mr. Egil finally came back. Then Mr. Egil comes to us and gives us the dagger, so we take it.

"Ooh..."

(... Could it be a knife?

And the dagger you were given? That's what I thought when I saw. Because the blade was opposite, just like the knife I have, so maybe not? and I was surprised to think so.

Youre, on the other hand, was pulling the dagger out of his sheath and rounding his eyes. I don't know what you're so surprised at, but it's not a bad surprise, so maybe you'll be okay? I asked Mr. Egil what bothered me with that in mind.

"Mr. Egil, did you match the weapon I had?

Sure, the knife wasn't supposed to be hard to sell and make, so maybe this weapon is, too, 'cause maybe you made it on purpose? Because I thought so.

……

Then Mr. Egil remained silent for a while but nodded slowly.

"Really? Thank you. Maybe, but it's a knife, isn't it?

Mr Egil's expression was the only thing that didn't change, but he was nodding as he scratched his head. Could it be illuminating? and I asked what bothered me as I thought about it.

"... so what is the price of this weapon?

"Three silver coins. Your lady's weapon is a silver coin."

"Huh?"

Yur, who heard the price, was shouting surprised. I was surprised when I first came here too...... And when I paid for it with that in mind, Youre was also taking the money out and giving it to me.

Mr. Egil disappeared inside when he received the money and nodded. And the rest of us.

"Is this weapon really okay with one silver coin?

"Come on? But wouldn't it be nice if Mr. Egil said so?

"... is that right?

"Yes, I am."

That's how we went to the woods to do our request after the weapons store.
