I finally arrived at town. By the way, this town was called ‘Resta’. I knew it after communicating with the gatekeeper.

First, I went to the adventurers’ guild to see if there was any request I could complete. I saw the words for ‘blue wolf’ and ‘goblin’ so I peeled those papers and took it to Dan who was managing the counter. 

I showed the goblin’s ears and the blue wolf’s fangs and claws. 

“○～◆△★”

After checking the items, Dan said that while making a circle with his fingers, implying the quests were complete with a hand gesture. I guess the word he spoke just now meant ‘okay’ or ‘fine’? Today I learned another new word. 

In exchange for the goblin’s ears and the blue wolf’s claws, I got 4 silver coins and guild points as my reward. By the way, Dan had also taught me numbers. I would hold out one finger and he’d tell me the word for ‘one’. Right now, I have 14 guild points. With a hand gesture, I conveyed my intention to learn magic and Dan wrote I needed to have 150 points for that. I still had a long way to go.

Next, I stopped by Sarasa’s store. After appraising the store’s sign that was decorated with a picture of a weight scale, her store was really called Mithril’s Scale. 

“Sell.”

I said in the local language to Sarasa. She then pointed toward the counter, telling me to take out the goods I had with a hand gesture. 

By the way, Sarasa was quite a beautiful woman. She had reddish brown hair with sharp facial features. She was pretty tall too, she looked like she was at least 160cm tall. Judging from her appearance, she looked like she was about 25 years old. She was really kind to me even though I couldn’t understand her language. She was a really kind woman. 

Now then for the sale of the goods I brought, I got 5 silver coins for the blue wolf’s leather and fangs. 1 silver coin for blue wolf’s core and 6 copper coins for green goblin’s core. I wouldn’t be selling the goblin’s dagger since I needed it for dismantling.

A single tube of HP potion could be sold for 3 gold coins. The price was pretty high, maybe it was because making one took time and effort. They could last longer in liquid form too.

When I showed her the potion that I had stored in a plastic bottle, she judged one plastic bottle could fill 5 test tubes with a little surplus. After deducting the agent’s margin, she agreed to buy one plastic bottle for 15 gold coins. 

Then I showed her the dual potion (small) that I made. I copied the local language of dual potion (small) based on the writing I saw from appraisal in a magic board. Sarasa was surprised to see it, she told me the potion was worth 20 gold coins. After deducting the agent’s margin, Sarasa bought the dual potion (small) for 19 gold coins. 

Sarasa put 34 gold coins, 5 silver coins and 6 copper coins in a leather bag and presented it to me. I took the bag and said ‘thank you’ in the local language. We concluded our trade by shaking our hands together. 

I gestured to Sarasa, asking if she had any bedding or toothbrush. Somehow my intention was conveyed properly. She showed me a quilt made from blue wolf’s fur and a mattress made of cloth filled with straws. These two items cost 2 gold coins and I agreed to buy them.

Also, since it was impossible to bring a mattress along with the quilt back with a carrier, I also bought a cart that I could pull manually. Furthermore, I received 3 toothbrushes as a freebie. 

After loading the cart with the items I had purchased, I left the store.
