02-06-Half of the sand in this leather bag
TN: Sorry about the month-long break between updates, had some issues to deal with. Regular weekly updates will now resume and thanks to all those who donated and commented during this time.
See you later, Fujima-kun!
Fujima-kun, thank you very much, See you.
Let’s see, ...... Fuji ............ ta? See you at school.
I don’t know.
I really don’t know.
I can’t believe these guys.
I don’t know if it’s their fault or my fault at all.

By the way, my name is Fujima, not Fujita. What kind of self-proclaimed genius makes a mistake after thinking about it?
Don’t do it, man. Don’t be a weakling. They’ve always been like that.
They’ve always targeted me when I’ve been weak or defeated.
Elementary school, junior high school.
What happens twice, happens three times. It’s bound to happen in high school, too, isn’t it?
…but...
………but...
Half of the sand in this leather bag is made up of their sweat.
“Oh.....”
When I went up the stairs somehow, a good smell filled the hallway. It seems that this smell was smelling faintly from the entrance ......
“ I’m back”
Ad
“Oh, welcome back!”
Ashima was standing in front of her workbench. The source of the sweet, fresh smell was sitting on Ashima’s bed.
“Hello, I dropped by.”
“Hi, Lydia. Is it twelve o’clock already?*
“No, it’s not. It’s only eleven o’clock. My schedule ended early, so I came to visit. Is it a bother.”
Her face is as neat and tidy as ever, and her eyes are a shimmering ice blue. And as always, her intonation is so lacking that it makes me hesitate for a moment to ask her a question.
“It’s no bother at all. As long as you don’t mind getting in the way of Ashima's mixing.”
“Of course I’m not bothered. I love you, Lydia.”
“Me too. I love Ashima”
“Ehehe ...... Lydia-san ♡”
Ad
“Ashima.”
Ashima hugs her and Lydia accepts it. What the hell is this?
“If you want to do Yuri, do it when I’m not around. If you want to do serious yuri, do it somewhere else. Also, Ashima, your face is melting and you look like a biohazard.”
“Gabin!? What does that mean !? Fujima, you look like a zombie with a lazy face!”
“Don’t be weird. It’s rude to zombies.”
“What kind of self-deprecation is this? Mental toughness!”
I was having a stupid conversation and forgot that I was overworking my arm, so I dropped the leather bag filled with 30 units of Orpheus Sand on the floor with a thud ....... It was heavy, really heavy.
“Whew. ......”
“Tohru is a workhorse.”
When I finally sat down on my bed by the wall and settled down, I saw Lydia looking at me from her bed against the other wall.
“There are things I want. Before that, I have to work to eat.”
“I said I’d give it to you.”
“I can’t agree with that. I’m sorry I’m bothering you by not being able to go get Mandrake until I can summon him.”
“No. I’m still very grateful. So please take this.”
I was pretty tired, so I said, “Hmmm ......?” I looked up miserably and saw that Lydia had stepped closer than I expected, and before I knew it, she was holding a leather bag in her beautiful hands.
Ad
“I don’t use it.”
──────────
☆ ？？？？？？ LV1
LV1? Up to 50 ？？？？？？ Bag.
How much does it weigh??? Of? The weight will be minute.
──────────
When I held my hand over it,a window was displayed.
“What, is this not a normal leather bag? It’s like a question mark.”
“Magic Bag. Holds more than it looks.”
When I heard Lydia’s voice, the window somehow updated.
──────────
☆ Magic bag LV1
A leather bag that can store up to a capacity of 50.
Weight is half of the contents.

“Oh, ....... Seriously, can I have this? It’s got a star on the top of it. Isn’t that a rare item?”
“Yes. But it’s okay, I don’t use it. It would be better for me if you used it, rather than me selling it.”
“Are you sure about this? I’ll take it. I’ve been dying a lot, so Iit will be bad if I lose it.”
“Fujima-kun, you also look backwards when receiving things. ......”
At first glance, it is smaller than the leather bag I usually use. But it’s strange that this one can hold more than the other. ......
“Hmm ... you received this. I was wondering if you would receive it with the will of the Kobold.”
“I have a policy, a belief. I want to do the summoning by myself.”
“Hmm. I’ve been thinking about it since I got home yesterday. Why would Tohru say such a wasteful thing?”
“I told you yesterday. I don’t want to just get power from you.”
“I don’t know. But it’s rare for people to think like that. That’s why I decided to think, ‘It can’t be helped because it’s thorough.”
“what is that……”
Next to Lydia, who remains sullen, Ashima laughs softly. She stood up while she did.
“I’m going to make the bottles now. Lydia-san, I’ve finished nine bottles of the medicinal bath, so please take them with you.”
“Okay. Toru, here’s the money.”
“Oh, you’re a fast calculator, .......”

The medicinal water, which can be made by mixing medicinal herbs and Orpheus bottle, is to be bought by Lydia for 24 coppers.
Two silver coins, one large copper coin, and six copper coins.
In total, I received two silver 16-coppers.
This, along with the 86 coppers in storage, brings my total wealth to 3 silvers and 2 coppers. I put the 2 silvers for living expenses and the fractional 2 coppers back into storage and look back at Ashima with only 1 silver.
“Ashima, nine medicinal baths from nine bottles, now mistakes?”
“Yes, thanks to Fujima-kun’s purchase of a skill book for [Compounding LV3]...”
“Thanks for everything.”
I said an unaccustomed thank you to Ashima to interrupt her and left the room as if I were running away without seeing anything.
“You’re alchemizing Orpheus’s sand into glass, wait a minute. I’ll buy the alchemy skill book now.”
I go out the door, which closed itself, and went down the stairs.
I ruminate on the words that Ashima was about to say just a moment ago, before I interrupted her.
How many times did Ashima say that since she came here?
It’s because of me, she said.
Indeed, I gave Ashima a bed to sleep in. I bought her a towel and gave her a shower.
But that’s it.

The benefits of blending, smelting, and processing are huge. So I don’t think I’m giving priority to Ashima over me, in fact I think I’m more incompetent than Ashima, because she can also collect.
It’s just that the first time I met her, I still kept teasing her.
I’m the reason Ashima is where she is today. ......?
No, I’m not.
Rather.
………… I guess.
But there was no way I could say such a thing out loud, so I kept teasing her as ugly.
I’m finally an equal after having the mount that I hated so much.
How can I make fun of anyone but myself?
...... Troublesome personality.
Can’t I at least say thank you in a dignified manner?
I guess I’m a pain in the ass.
I wonder if shady people are too much trouble.
When I opened the door, which seemed to be filled with the aroma of coffee, Goregrius, the store keeper, was standing in the same position as before.
I was somewhat relieved by this and smiled to comfort my still buzzing heart.
