It smells bad, but tastes good when you lick it.

I really want to hug Shilufi, who hasn't showered yet, and give her a good kiss under her armpit.

That being said.

It's highly likely that Hilfi won't agree.

……

We headed straight toward the market.

The market looks very close.

That being said.

When we arrived at the market, it was already evening.

The ground was no longer a desert, but a reddish-brown earth that seemed to lack nutrients, with many fist-sized stones scattered around it.

It is somewhat similar to the surface of the Demon Continent.

The temperature has dropped considerably, although it is still very hot.

But at least you don't have to keep maintaining fire magic all the time.

In previous lives.

Alina Lige and I encountered the warriors of the desert here.

We embarked on this journey together for a variety of reasons.

However, this time, due to the staggered timing...

It's obvious we won't be meeting them.

But it doesn’t matter.

It may be a little tiring.

But with my and Sylphie's strength, it shouldn't be a problem.

……

By the time we actually entered the market, it was already quite late.

That being said, there are still many lights on here, and many shops are still selling goods.

"Rudy, um... I'd like to go buy some toiletries."

"I'm a little embarrassed," said Hilfi.

what……

When she set off, she hadn't imagined that the environment on the continent of Becallit would be so harsh.

I rarely bring toiletries or anything like that.

Having finally made it to the market, we naturally need to buy some things.

"Of course, but we need to replenish our currency first, okay?"

"Replenish...currency?"

"The money used here is different from that in the Central Continent."

Hilfi had no experience traveling to other continents.

There are many different types of currencies in the world, and basically every continent has a different currency.

The currency circulating on the continent of Becallit is called "New Sa".

In appearance, it is just an ordinary coin with a crudely engraved pattern on a round metal plate.

I've met Alice a few times before in the Eastern Port.

Bartering is also an option.

However, I carry with me the world's hard currency—magic stones.

Thank you, Mr. Long, for your generous gift.

The status of magic stones in this world is equivalent to that of gold on Earth.

You can always get the corresponding amount of money, no matter when.

I found some stalls that looked relatively large and exchanged magic stones for some local currency.

While exchanging currency, I inadvertently pulled out my Adventurer Card.

The age column was changed to "14".

Oh yeah?

Before I knew it, I was already 14 years old.

……

anyway.

Goods from the Central Continent can fetch high prices here.

Cheap jerky can be sold for three times the price.

on the other hand.

Glassware from here could fetch a very high price if it were sold in the central mainland.

Well……

If there were magical items or spells similar to "spatial storage," it would be quite profitable to simply resell them, right?

However, thanks to Boss Long's generosity, I am not short of money at all.

"Rudy knows so much."

Seeing my smooth decision-making process, Hilfi spoke with an air of admiration.

"It wouldn't have gone so smoothly without Sylphie, would it?"

"I'm glad I can help Rudy."

After exchanging the currency, Hilfi and I immediately went to replenish our supplies and buy food.

That being said.

Because it was late, many stalls had already closed.

I wasn't able to buy much.

Looks like we'll have to talk about it tomorrow.

120. Nightfall

It's getting late.

Hilufi and I are getting ready to rest.

Come to think of it, this wasn't the first night I spent with Silphie.

However, today is a little different from usual.

Since it's in a populated area, there's no need to worry about monster attacks.

In other words.

I can finally get a good night's sleep.

That being said, there were no hostels or similar facilities in the market, and travelers without tents seemed to be sleeping outdoors.

That's not a problem at all.

As long as there are no monster attacks, I can easily build a shelter using earth magic.

After making a selection...

Hilfi and I found a place where there weren't many people around.

Because I'm going to sleep in the same bed with Silphie tonight, I made the bed very big.

and many more……

If the bed is very big, wouldn't it end up with the two of them each occupying one side?

Don’t do that kind of thing!

all in all.

While Silphie wasn't looking, I secretly made the bed a little smaller.

That way I can sleep while holding Silphie.

I'm a genius.

Winning a Nobel Prize shouldn't be a problem, right?

……

"Well then, you must have had a tough journey."

"Did Rudy do the most work?"

"It's because of Hilfi that I'm so motivated."

"Honestly, Rudy always says things like that..."

Hilfi hugged her knees with both arms, puffing out her cheeks in anger.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I really want to hug him and pamper him.

That being said.

There's other work to be done.
