Poor Office Worker Wakes Up In Another World With The Ability Of Online Shopping And Becomes Rich

Konishi is a solitary, middle-aged office worker trapped in the monotony of a deadend desk job. On a seemingly ordinary workday, he overdoes it on his go-to energy drink, leading to his collapse and loss of consciousness. This alarming health incident becomes the wakeup call he desperately needed to make a drastic change. He decides to quit his job and leave his old life behind, relocating to the countryside to Embrace a dull, simple existence as a farmer. settling in an unattractive cabin. One quiet afternoon, as he's in the middle of preparing lunch, something completely unexpected occurs. He's abruptly

transported to an expansive, unfamiliar forest. Feeling bewildered and uneasy, Kenishi scans his surroundings, his heart racing when his eyes fall upon the skeleton of an ancient knight, its armor pierced by a sword still lodged in its chest. Overwhelmed and alarmed, Kenishi glances around, trying to process his predicament and wondering how he's ever going to get out of this bizarre situation. Then, remembering an anime he once watched where the protagonist used a status bar in a similar scenario, he decides to try the same thing. To his amazement, a glowing status screen appears, displaying all his current

stats. This is the moment Konishi realizes he's in another world. Konishi Quickly adapts to the system. Learning how it works, he discovers it allows him to store and retrieve items effortlessly, a feature he finds incredibly useful. Moments later, hunger strikes. The system offers him the option to buy food and water, but it comes at a price he can't afford since he's broke. Frustrated, he wonders what to do next. Konishi soon stumbles upon the systems trading feature, allowing him to exchange valuable items for Supplies. However, he quickly realizes there's nothing in his immediate surroundings to offer

for trade. His gaze shifts back to the knight's skeleton, and his eyes lock onto the sword lodged in its chest. With no other options, he decides to use the sword for a trade. The system accepts the weapon, granting him two cartons of milk and some bread in return. After satisfying his hunger, Kenishi uses the leftover trade points to buy a shovel. With it, He carefully buries the knight's remains, offering a prayer of gratitude for the meal and the sword that helped him survive. Next, he buys a bike and begins exploring the area. Knowing he needs

to find a settlement and earn money quickly, Kenishi spends the rest of the day gathering items and trades them in for food and utensils. As night falls, he prepares a curry meal, ready to finally enjoy it when a pack of black forest foxes starts creeping toward him. Fear grips him as he scrambles for a solution. Searching through his system, the only thing he can find is a box of fireworks, he throws them at the foxes, but they don't work. Panicking, he keeps looking until he discovers a slingshot with unlimited ammo. He fires a few shots,

successfully scaring off the foxes. Relieved but shaken, Kenishi jumps on his bike and gets the hell out of there as fast as he can. The next morning, Kenishi finds himself at the Edge of the forest. Mentally preparing to face whatever challenges this strange new world has in store. Determined to find a way out, he resumes exploring the area. Using his system, he decides to purchase a step ladder and a pair of binoculars. Climbing up with the ladder, he scans the horizon through the binoculars and spots the walls of a city in the distance. This site

fills him with a glimmer of hope as he believes reaching the city might provide him with An opportunity to earn money and start figuring things out. With newfound determination, Kenishi pushes his way through the dense weeds, moving as quickly as he can toward the city. Along the way, Kenishi reaches a crossroad and narrowly avoids being hit by a speeding carriage. The carriage stops in front of him, belonging to a young blondhaired merchant named Fu, who feels bad about the near accident. Noticing the heavy rain, Fu offers Kenishi a ride to the City free of charge.

Konishi climbs into the carriage and notices another passenger inside. Fau explains that she is just a traveling bard and fellow traveler. As they continue their journey, Fu observes that Kenisha's attire and name are unusual. Curious, he asks Kenishi what brings him to the city of Dia, suspecting that he's not a local. Kenishi brushes off the question, simply stating that he's heading there for business Purposes. Before long, they reach the city gates. Kenishi lends Fu a hand unloading boxes from the carriage, and in return, Fu hands him a small pouch as payment for the ride. Curious,

Kenishi opens the pouch and discovers it's filled with pepper. His expression turns serious as Fu cautions him about openly carrying spices. Fu explains that the spice syndicate holds a strict monopoly over spices, making it risky to possess them without proper connections. Despite The warning, Fu offers to buy the pepper from Kenishi, but Kenishi insists on gifting it to him. Fu, however, refuses, stating that as a merchant, he's happy to get things cheaply, but won't take anything for free. After handing Konishi three silver pieces in exchange for the pepper, Fu climbs back onto his carriage and

continues on his way. Kenishi looks at the silver coins in disbelief. Realizing how much they're worth in yen, he's shocked by their value and feels a Newfound sense of fortune. With money in hand, his next priority is finding a place to sleep. He heads to an inn where he meets the attendant, a woman named Aelia. She greets him and guides him to the service counter, explaining the available rooms and payment methods. After paying for a room, Aelia asks Kenishi to write his name in the guest register. It's at this moment that he realizes he doesn't

know how to read or write in this world's language. Feeling Embarrassed, Kenishi explains his predicament to Iselia. She listens carefully before offering a word of caution, pointing out that the merchants's guild will never accept him as a registered merchant if he struggles with fundamental skills like reading and writing. Kenishi quickly clarifies that he's fully capable of reading, writing, and even performing mathematical calculations, but he admits he cannot do so in this nation's writing system. To Verify his claim, Aelia decides to test him with a math question. To her surprise, Konishi answers it effortlessly. Satisfied that

he possesses the essential skills, she guides him through writing his name in the register. Afterward, Kenishi asks if she can teach him how to read and write in the nation's language, offering her some candy as a reward. Excited by the offer, Aelia immediately agrees. As they talk, Kenishi learns that the land he's In is the kingdom of Kaden, a nation governed by a hierarchical system with nobles and a king. Kenishi spends most of the night with Aelia, discovering that the country's language isn't too different from his native Japanese. Lying on the bed with a faint

blush, Aelia is impressed by how quickly Kenishi picks it up, confidently concluding that he'll do well as a merchant. While Aelia takes a moment to rest, Kenishi, feeling a bit bored, Decides to sketch a portrait of her. When he shows her the drawing, she's astonished by how lifelike it appears, remembering all the kindness Kenishi has shown her so far. Aelia blushes deeply once more and gently pulls him onto the bed to thank him in her own way. Later that day, Kenishi goes downstairs to the guild center where he meets the receptionist. She hands him a

handwritten registration form to fill out. He's initially confused about why It's handwritten, but then realizes they haven't developed printing technology yet. After filling out his details, he returns the form to the receptionist who validates it. However, she informs him that the guild registration fee is one silver piece, roughly 50,000 yen. The thought of this makes Kenishi sigh heavily because he knows he doesn't have money like that. He asks if he can pay in installments, and the receptionist agrees, giving him a sense of relief. She then hands him his guild card, a simple metal piece with

a crystal embedded at its center. The following day, Kenishi heads to the market, conversing with various merchants to gather information on the prices of goods and explore potential profitable opportunities. Later, back at the inn, he decides to improve his living space by constructing a more comfortable bed, Aelia observes him from afar, impressed by his carpentry skills and the care he Puts into his work. As she continues to watch Kenishi diligently working on his project, her attention is drawn to the sturdy and uniquely designed clothes spins he's using. Curious, she approaches him and asks if she

could buy a few, mentioning that the thin clothes spins she typically uses tend to break easily. Her remark sparks an idea in Kenishha's mind, and he begins to realize that these clothes spins might have the potential to become a Profitable product. The following day, Kenishi decides to set up a stand at a local market to sell these clothes spins. The stand next to his is run by a woman named Anama. Shortly after, he opens for business. Anama comes over to buy a few clothes spins from him. Kinishi seems surprised by her interest, but Anama casually

tells him there's no rule against Stan neighbors buying from each other. With this interaction, they exchange introductions and strike up an Acquaintance. Kenisha's clothes spin business quickly turns into a massive success. On his very first day, he attracts a constant flow of customers. Much to his excitement, Anama shares in his joy, thanking him for the boost in foot traffic as the crowd drawn to his stand has also brought more customers her way. Later, Konishi takes some time to review his earnings. To his amazement, he discovers he's made a profit equivalent to over 15,000 yen in

Just one day, a considerable sum by the local standards. This achievement solidifies his belief that selling clothes spins alone could provide him with a steady and sustainable livelihood. Just as he finishes his calculations, another customer approaches his stand, a tall blonde man with a sword on his hip, giving off the impression of someone important. The man browses the stand and eventually asks if Kenishi has any knives suitable for Battle. Kenishi shows him a finely crafted blade, which the man inspects closely, though it's a pristine weapon. Something about it doesn't feel right. It's too short for

his needs. The blonde man asks if Kenishi has anything larger. Kenishi nods and presents him with a tall, broadsword. The man is immediately impressed, marveling at the quality and craftsmanship of the blade. He's eager to purchase it and asks for the price. Kenishi quotes one gold Piece, but the blonde man hesitates, clearly feeling the price is steep. Despite this, he finds the sword so beautiful that he can't let it go. Their conversation is suddenly interrupted when a purple-haired catgirl appears out of nowhere and licks Kenishha's face. Startled by the unexpected gesture, Kenishi stumbles backward and

falls to the ground. Noticing his shocked reaction, the blonde man observes silently for a moment before realizing That Kenishi has likely never encountered beastfolk before. He calmly explains to Kenishi that beings like the catgirl are a normal part of this world. Moments later, more beast folk arrive and apologize for their sister's impulsive behavior. One of them climbs onto Kenishha's stand, grabs the cloth draped over it, and enthusiastically announces their intent to buy it. Kinishi initially tells them the cloth isn't for sale, but reconsiders upon Seeing an opportunity to make money. He decides to sell the

cloth for nine pieces of copper, including a discount of one copper piece. The beast folk, however, don't have the exact amount. Kinishi assures them it's fine and calculates the change they're owed. The beast folk look at him suspiciously, unsure if they can trust his math. Just as tensions rise, the blonde man speaks up, confirming that Kenishha's calculations are accurate. satisfied. The beast folk hand over the money, take their cloth, and leave. The beast folk aren't known to be the brightest when it comes to calculations, so it makes sense. The blonde man, impressed by Kenisha's honesty

and ingenuity, ultimately decides to purchase the sword after all. Elsewhere in the city, a maid who purchased Kenisha's clothes spins shows them to her master, Primula. Intrigued, Margaret asks if they could be used in the mansion, pointing out how Much easier they would make the maid's chores. Primula agrees enthusiastically, suggesting they purchase more the following day. Taking the idea further, she envisions selling the clothes spins through her own company. Recognizing them as a potential gold mine. Excited by the opportunity, she rushes off to seek her father's permission to move forward with the plan. That evening,

Konishi is taking a bath by the well. Wishing he could have a warm bath, but Those haven't been invented yet. He decides he's going to have to make one himself. looking through the store if there's anything he could use to make the hot bath. And he happens to finds a barrel for sale and intends to fill it with water and put it over a fire so he can experience a hot bath again. If his idea works out, he thinks he might be able to make some profit from it. That aside, Kenishi has been benefiting a

lot from his online store screen, but he has No idea how it actually works or how the packages even get to him in the first place. Honestly, it feels almost too good to be true, and Kenishi can't shake the worry that it might eventually demand his soul as payment. While his success with the clothes spins has been encouraging, he finds himself pondering what new product he could develop to achieve similar results. However, no fresh ideas come to him. Frustrated, he gazes at the ceiling, his thoughts Drifting to the bigger questions. For now, there's no point

in dwelling on it. So, Kenishi decides to call it a night and get some sleep. Meanwhile, deep within the forest, a young girl named Anemone is on the run. The following day, as Kenishi prepares his shop for the day, he decides to make some adjustments to his inventory. He adds some jewelry to his selection. While these aren't genuine gemstones of high value, they have an attractive Appearance, which should help him turn a modest profit. At that moment, the maid from the previous day, Margaret, arrives, mentioning that she's there to purchase more clothes spins from Kenishi.

When he asks how many she needs, he's taken aback by her request for 100. However, since she has the money ready, he proceeds with the transaction. As Kenishi is packaging the clothes spins for her, Margaret's attention shifts to the jewelry he has Displayed. She inquires if they are made from real diamonds. Kenishi explains that the pieces are crafted from polished glass, but they still look quite appealing. Margaret then asks him to reserve one for her so she can return and purchase it later. The day continues as usual, but just as Kenishi is about to close

up shop, the beast folk from the previous day return to his store. They appear quite serious and Kenishi starts to worry that they might be there To rough him up. However, Miley steps in close to him and confidently tells the others that she can definitely smell spices on him. The rest of the beast folks start cheering and eagerly asks Kenishi to sell them some spices. Despite their enthusiasm, Kinishi hesitates after hearing about the Spice Syndicate and not knowing how they operate or what they might do if they discover he's selling spices. He feels it's too

risky. The Beast folk continue To plead with him, hoping he'll make an exception, but the locals in the area step in, explaining that it's unreasonable to expect someone as new as Kenishi to jeopardize his business for them. Hearing this, the beast folk seem to understand and back down. Kenishi can't sell them any spices. But it technically won't be breaking any rules if he just shares a meal with them. So, he invites the group to come eat with him, but it's going to have to be out in The woods so he doesn't attract any negative attention.

The beast folk are really happy to hear this. Later that night, they all meet Konishi and Anama on the outskirts of town so they can begin cooking. Konishi is about to begin cooking when Anama asks if she can help. He tells her to cut some of the veggies for him. However, when Anama takes a look at the veggies, she can't believe how vibrant and juicy they look. Kenishi explains that he got these from a Foreign country and guarantees that they taste really good. While Kenishi and Anama are busy working on the vegetables, Miley and the

other beast folk are down by the river, trying their hand at catching fish. Before long, they manage to catch a good amount. With all the ingredients ready, Kenishi starts preparing the fish, seasoning it with spices, and then tossing everything into a pot to cook. The result is a meal that the beast folk absolutely adore. They've Never experienced flavors like this before and are incredibly grateful for the food. However, the delicious meal stirs up a strong craving for alcohol among them. Anama warns them to control themselves, reminding them that alcohol is quite expensive. But Kenishi doesn't

see any harm in indulging them a little. So he pulls out a bottle of inexpensive booze and pours a few glasses for them. In return, he makes them promise that they'll never tell anyone about the meal He cooked for them. Anama warns Kenishi that he's being a little too generous, but he doesn't see anything wrong with letting the beast folk enjoy themselves, especially since they seem to be good people. That night, they drink together, bathe together, and eventually fall asleep under the stars. Miley seems to really like Kenishi now. The next morning, Kenishi returns to

the inn and Aelia is a bit upset since he was out all night. Kenishi tries to explain that He was just hanging out with a couple of beast folk outside town, but judging from the cat lady fur on his jacket, she thinks Kenishi did a lot more than just hang out, and she's mad he chose to do it with a cat lady instead of her. Later that day, as Kenishi is setting up his shop for another day of business, Margaret arrives with Primula to pay him a visit. Kenishi is momentarily captivated by Primula's beauty, but

then he notices Margaret standing behind her And realizes they're probably here to buy the necklace Margaret had inquired about the day before. He retrieves the necklace and Margaret pays for it before handing it over to Primula for inspection. Primula is so impressed by the craftsmanship that she finds it hard to believe the necklace isn't made of real diamonds. She then asks Kenishi if he has more necklaces like this in stock. In response, Kenishi retrieves several more pieces from his collection And brings them out for her to see. Primula is incredibly impressed by the quality of

Kenisha's products as well as the fact that he has an item box. She has a request to make of him. She tells him that she is the daughter of the owner of the Malow trading company and if Kenishi is willing to accompany her, she would like to introduce him to her father. Kenishi likes the idea of meeting with the owner of a major trading company, but he is hesitant to Meet any big shots since it might spell trouble for him. However, Anama tells him that Primula's father is wellknown around town and everyone says he's a

man of good character. So, Kenishi doesn't have to worry about getting into trouble with him. Since that's the case, Kenishi agrees to go with Primula and she invites him to join her in her carriage so they can go meet her father. On the way, Primula shows Kenishi some replicas of the clothes spins she had made. While The wooden part was simple enough for her craftsman to replicate, the metal clamp proved too intricate for them to recreate. Konishi understands why they struggled since even he doesn't fully know how the springs are made. He just knows it's

a complex process. Eventually, they arrive at Primula's home, and Kenishi is stunned by its enormous size. However, Primula casually mentions that compared to the homes of other nobles in the area, hers is Actually quite modest. They head inside, and Kenishi is introduced to Primula's father, Malo. They both greet each other, and Malo invites Kenishi to have a seat so they can begin their discussion. Once Kenishi is settled in, he shows Malow some of the jewelry he has. And Malow is just as impressed as Primula was. On top of that, Primula tells him that Kenishi possesses

an item box. And Malo finds this interesting because he also has one. His item box is What allowed him to build his trading company to this level in the first place. So, if it's used properly, he thinks Kenishi could become quite successful. Although, right now, Kenishi is just using it to store his supplies. The reason Malow wanted to meet with Kenishi is to discuss the possibility of making Kenishi the official supplier for the Malow company. Konishi had anticipated a proposal like this and assumes Melo's plan is to market the Goods in a way that will

maximize profits. However, Kenishi wonders why if that's the goal. Malow didn't just continue buying items from his shop at a low price and reselling them later. While Malo could have done that, he explains it would be a dishonest business move. And if Konishi ever discovered they were reselling his goods without permission, it would certainly upset him. Additionally, approaching Konishi directly gives Malow a strategic Advantage over his competitors, who would likely try to strike a similar deal with him in the future. With that being said, Malow would like to begin their partnership negotiations and offers to

pay Kenishi 50% of the retail price for his goods. Kinishi could push for a better deal, but he's honestly okay with this since he's already making a ridiculous amount of profit from his online store. So, he accepts Malow's offer, and the two shake hands on it. He Officially signs the supply contract, and the first few items he supplies Malow with earn him over a million yen worth of coins. However, when Primula sees all the beautiful jewels Kenishi has in stock, she falls in love with them and asks her father if she can just buy these

ones from Kenishi for herself. Malo sees no problem with that, so Primula offers to pay him 10 gold coins for them, which is equivalent to 2 million yen. For the first time since he Got here, Konishi has an 8 figure bank balance. Since things are going so well for him, Konishi decides it's time to start setting up his peaceful life and purchases a house from his store. The following day, he leaves the city walls and ventures into the forest to find a suitable spot for his new home. Before heading out, he mentioned his plan to

Aelia so she wouldn't worry, though she found it odd that Kenishi would willingly choose to live in the Dangerous forest instead of staying within the safety of the city. After finally finding a good location, Konishi buys a weed whacker and begins clearing the area. However, he quickly encounters an issue. While most items from his store are reasonably priced, fuel is expensive no matter what world you're in. With no way around the high cost, Kenishi decides to just deal with it and continues working until he has successfully cleared a path for himself To move in and

out of the forest. After that, he needs to start working on getting rid of all the trees. So, he buys a chainsaw and starts cutting. After several hours of hard work, Kenishi has finally managed to cut through a bunch of the trees in the area. So, all that's left is to move them out of the way. However, when he tries to stuff the trees in his item box, it doesn't work. It looks like the trees are too long to fit, so he's going To have to bust out the chainsaw and cut them down into more

manageable pieces. He eventually shortens the trees into 10 m logs. And this way he's able to fit them in his item box, so he's almost done with the tree removal. The only thing left to do is pull out all the tree stumps. But that's going to be a lot of work, and the sun is already setting, so he decides to come back and finish up tomorrow. The next day, Kenishi heads back to the forest to Continue working. But after spending some time digging at the stump, he realizes the task is far too demanding for a

middle-aged man like himself. Rather than risk injuring his back, he decides to buy a bulldozer instead. However, as soon as he sees it, he's hit with the realization that he just spent 1.2 million yen on heavy machinery simply to avoid manual labor. He feels a bit of regret about the splurge, but at the same time, the thought of not having To strain himself makes him wonder if it was actually a smart investment. He starts up the bulldozer's engine only to discover that it runs on diesel and his store doesn't sell diesel at all. This throws

him into a panic as the thought of wasting so much money on something he can't even use is overwhelming. He thinks for a second and realizes he could probably make his own diesel if he mixes kerosene and some additives. But when he's about to try it out, he Realizes he could destroy the bulldozer's engine if he gets the proportions of the mixture wrong. So, just to be safe, he decides to test out his mixture on a diesel generator first. After filling it up, he tries turning it on, and it seems to work fine. So, he

knows his homemade diesel will work with the bulldozer. He intends to return tomorrow to finish the job. In the meantime, he needs to do something about all the bugs out here. So the next day He decides to head to a local magic shop to buy some bug repellent magic stones. As Konishi steps into the shop, the wizard who owns it greets him and asks where he's from, noting that he hasn't seen him around before. Kenishi explains that he's a foreigner who recently opened a shop in town and has come by to purchase some bug repellent

stones. The wizard informs him that the stones cost three silver coins, which is quite pricey. Hoping to negotiate, Kenishi Offers the wizard two oranges in exchange for lowering the price. Since the wizard has never seen oranges before, he assumes they must be a rare and exotic fruit and agrees to give Kenishi a discount because of the trade. Later that day, Kenishi has a conversation with Anama, who mentions that the wizard is incredibly knowledgeable and someone worth having as a friend, essentially the complete opposite of the wanted criminal Shaga, Whose posters are displayed all over town.

As the leader of a notorious bandit group, Shaga has a substantial bounty on his head. That very night, he orchestrates a raid on a carriage transporting slaves, leaving everyone wondering what he plans to do with them. The following day, Konishi returns to the forest, eager to finally put his bulldozer to use. Any regrets about the purchase vanish as he realizes how much easier it's making his work, and it's Surprisingly fun to operate. With this, nothing stands in the way of his dream of living a peaceful life in the woods. However, after spending so much on

the bulldozer, his finances are nearly drained, forcing him to pause any further construction for the time being. A little while later, Kenishi meets up with Malow and Primula again, hoping to sell them some salt and sugar for a decent profit. Malow tries the sugar and is impressed by its quality. But Unfortunately, he can't buy it from Kenishi. The state holds exclusive rights to the trade of sugar and salt, meaning Malow would face serious trouble if he purchased it from an unlicensed source. On the upside though, the jewels Kenishi sold to Malow earlier are flying off

the shelves, so Malow is eager to buy more right away. The additional jewels Kenishi sells this time earn him 15 gold coins, equivalent to roughly 3 million yen. With this newfound wealth, Kenishi finally has enough money to buy the log cabin he spotted in his store. He's still amazed that the store even sells entire cabins and for just 1.7 million yen, no less. It almost feels too good to be true. But Kenishi isn't about to pass up the opportunity. So, he goes ahead and purchases the log cabin. Unfortunately, the cabin seems to have been sourced

from Walmart because as soon as Kenishi purchases it, he's buried under a mountain of wooden planks And a set of instructions that make no sense to him. He takes a moment to manually read through the instructions, and just as he feared, assembling the cabin is going to be an enormous headache. However, since he's already paid for it, he has no choice but to push through and get it done. As Kenishi starts working on the construction, the beast folk he helped earlier happened to pass by, and as a gesture of gratitude, they decide to lend him

a hand with the Build. Several weeks pass and with the help of the beast folk, Kenishi manages to make consistent progress on building his log cabin while still running his stall. After just under a month of hard work, the cabin is finally finished. Kenishi knows he couldn't have completed it so quickly without the beast folks assistance. So, to show his gratitude, he throws a barbecue party for them. However, even though the cabin itself is done, Kenishi still has a long list of Tasks to handle on his own, like painting the walls and roof and setting

up electricity. It takes him another month to sort out all the essentials. But once everything is in place, Kenishha's home becomes completely self-sufficient. He builds a fence around his house and farm, and for electricity, he installs a couple of solar panels. With his dream home finally complete, the first thing Konishi does to celebrate is enjoy a Nice warm bath. Though he still needs to figure out how to install indoor plumbing, as it took several bike trips to fill up the bath. The next morning, Kenishi heads to the inn to let Aelia know that he's finished

building his forest cabin and won't be staying at the inn anymore. Aelia is a bit surprised as she didn't think Kenishi was serious when he mentioned wanting to build a house in the forest. Still, she's happy for him and proud that he achieved one Of his goals, even if it means she won't get to see him as often anymore. The following day, Kenishi wakes up in his cabin, and with the weather being so beautiful, he decides to head out and take photos of the local flowers. However, his peaceful outing is abruptly interrupted when an arrow

whizzes past him, nearly hitting him. Startled, Kenishi tumbles off his bike. But the attack doesn't stop. More arrows are fired, forcing him to take cover behind A tree. The culprits turn out to be a group of new beast folk living in the forest. They explain that they were out hunting and instinctively attacked him, mistaking him for a threat. However, even after realizing that Kenishi is the human who built a cabin in the forest, they remain hostile and decide to kill him anyway. Kenishi has no idea why these beast folk are attacking him, but he's not

about to sit back and let them do as they please. He reaches into his Inventory, pulls out his slingshot, and fires back. The beast folk, caught off guard by the fact that the seemingly weak human is fighting back, start to secondguess their actions. When Kenishi escalates by throwing fireworks at them and pulling out his excavator, they decide they have no interest in sticking around to find out what it's capable of and quickly flee. Left puzzled by the whole ordeal, Kenishi suddenly hears a wounded animal crying out in pain near The base of a tree. The

poor creature has been shot in the leg and likely won't survive much longer unless Kenishi acts fast. Kenishi cautiously approaches the injured cat, but it snarls at him, clearly not trusting his intentions. Not wanting to risk getting bitten, he spends a little money to buy some cushion armor as a precaution. However, as he starts removing the arrow, the cat barely resists. It seems to have run out of stamina. This makes it much easier For Kamishi to treat its injuries. He purchases a bottle of alcohol to disinfect the wound and then applies some antibiotic cream. While

the immediate wounds have been treated, there's no guarantee the cat will survive if left out in the wild. So, Kenishi decides to bring it back to his house. Kenishi sets up a blanket for the cat to rest on, but it still hasn't moved an inch since he treated it, which makes him start to worry. He hasn't seen Any veterinarians in this town, but he figures there might be some kind of healing magic he can use. So, he decides to consult the wizard. After listening to Kenishha's story, the wizard deduces that the animal he found is

likely a bobcat. However, the wizard doesn't see the point in trying to heal it, suggesting that Kenishi could just kill it and sell its fur for a decent profit. Realizing the wizard isn't going to be of much help. Konishi heads back Outside. As he does so, Miley happens to be passing by, so she jumps on him and starts sniffing around. She smells the scent of a bobcat on him and her people see bobcats as messengers of God. So, she's really excited and wants to see it for herself. She follows Kenishi back to his house and

as soon as she sees the bobcat, she can already tell that its injury was caused by the dog beast folk, so she swears to make them pay. In the meantime, the bobcat seems to be doing a Bit better, but it keeps trying to lick its wound. So, Kenishi is forced to stick a cone on its head. Miley is impressed by Kenishha's skill in providing health care and asks if he's a doctor, but he modestly replies that he only knows some basic first aid. Wanting to thank him for saving the bobcat, Miley heads outside and does

a bit of quick hunting. Bringing back some bird meat as a gift, Kenishi grills it for their Dinner. And after they eat, Miley, feeling exhausted, asks if she can stay the night. Kenishi questions whether it's okay for her to abandon her work to stay, but Miley insists that she's more concerned about the bobcat than her responsibilities at the moment. Kenishi agrees to let her stay, but since he only has one bed, Miley suggests they share it. Later that night, Miley somehow ends up on top of Kenishi. A few days later, the cat is looking much

Healthier, so Kenishi decides it's time to start working on his farm. While he can easily purchase the seedlings and tools he needs, the issue of water still poses a challenge. Running down to the river every time he needs to water his crops would be far too inconvenient. His first thought is to construct a well with a pump, but he decides to leave that task for another day since he's too exhausted to tackle it now. That night, he heads to bed, only to wake up the Next morning to the bobcat jumping on his stomach. Although it's

a bit painful, Kenishi is glad to see the bobcat so full of energy. Feeling confident in its recovery, he removes its cone and releases it back into the wild to live freely. Now, back to that well matter. Kamishi decides to take a few days off from running his stall so he can get to work on it. He drills a hole in the ground and installs an electric pump so he now has access to Fresh water whenever he needs it. To celebrate, he starts filling up his bath so he can take a soak. But all of

a sudden, he hears Primula call out to him. He's surprised to see her here. So, Primula explains that he didn't open his shop today, so she got a little worried. And Miley told her about his log cabin, so she decided to visit him. She's impressed that Kenishi was able to build all of this on his own. But then she notices the giant excavator next to his House, so she asks him about it. Kenishi doesn't want to have to explain how that thing works, so he just says it's his summon familiar to keep it simple. Primula

totally believes him, but now she thinks Kenishi can do magic, so he asks her to keep this a secret when she gets back home. At this time of day, the city gates are likely already closed, meaning Primula won't be able to return home. She's fully aware of that, which is why she plans to spend the night at Kenishhi's place. Even when Kenishi points out that he only has one bed, she insists that it's not an issue. Noticing the barrel behind him, she asks what it's for, and Kenishi explains that it's a hot bath. Excited by

the idea, Primula asks if she can try it out. By nightfall, Kenishi heats up the bath and Primula eagerly gets in, enjoying the soothing warmth. However, being out in the middle of the woods starts to make her feel uneasy. So, she calls out to Kenishi. He reassures her that he's sitting just on the other side of the wall. But Primula says she'd feel more comfortable if she could see him face to face. After finishing her bath, Konishi hands Primula a bathrobe to change into. She falls in love with how warm and cozy it feels and

immediately asks if she can buy it from him. Konishi initially says it's not for sale, but after her persistent pleading, he agrees to sell her a couple of bathroes. Later, he Gives her a night gown to wear for bed, and Primula is amazed by the variety of highquality items Kenishi has in his possession. She confidently tells him that he could easily become the greatest merchant in the kingdom if he set his mind to it. However, Kinishi explains that he has no interest in such an ambition, as it would only attract unwanted attention from the local

nobles and create unnecessary trouble. All he wants is to live a peaceful life and Earn enough money to stay comfortable. Hearing this, Primula promises to do whatever she can to help him maintain his quiet, simple lifestyle. A little while later, they go to bed, but Kenishi doesn't want a repeat of what happened with Miley, so he decides to just buy a second bed for Primula for the night to avoid any funny business. Meanwhile, over in the outlaws camp, Shaga seems to have received a job from someone really important, so this could spell trouble In the

future. The next morning, Kenishi takes Primula back home and while he's there, he decides to talk with Malow about those bathroes Primula asked about. Malow is intrigued by the strange fabric, so he thinks it will sell really well. And since they are on the topic, Kenishi decides to bring up the possibility of selling something a little more spicy. Primula certainly seems interested, but Malow shuts that idea down immediately. Just then, Margaret enters the room to deliver the ledgers Malow had requested. Noticing Kenishha's curiosity, Malow explains that he's in the middle of rewriting the old ledgers

because the Empire recently introduced a brilliant new system for tracking sales, double entry bookkeeping. Kenishi is stunned as the double entry system was a standard practice back in Japan. This reminds him of something Malow had mentioned earlier about the empire's rapid growth being Driven by the inventions of a certain man. As it happens, Malow was just about to test one of this man's latest inventions, which to Kenisha's surprise turns out to be a pitcher pump. This revelation only heightens Kenisha's suspicions creating something as advanced as a pitcher pump would require prior knowledge, strongly suggesting that

someone else from Japan may have been sent to this world. Konamishi feels slightly uneasy, realizing he might have Competition. Over the next few days, Primula makes occasional visits to Kenishi and often spends the night at his place. However, tonight is different. She's leaving for a supply run tomorrow and won't be able to visit for a while. Before she leaves, she asks Kenishi if he still has that spicy night gown because she'd like to buy it from him. Curious, Kenishi jokingly asks if she's trying to seduce someone. And to his surprise, Primula admits that the Person

she's after is him. Kenishi is caught off guard and doesn't know how to respond. He doesn't feel it's appropriate to have that kind of relationship with Primula, especially since he's friends with Malow, and he doubts Malow would approve of Primula pursuing an older man like him. However, Primula assures him that she already has her father's blessing, so that won't be an issue. Even so, Kenishi feels overwhelmed with everything going on in His life and tells Primula he isn't ready for a relationship right now, asking if she would be willing to put the conversation on hold.

Primula agrees, but makes one request. She wants to share the same bed with Kenishi at least once before she leaves, even if it's just to sleep beside him. The next morning, Kenishi gets an unexpected visit from a knight who turns out to be the same man he sold a sword to previously. His name is Norse and he Explains that he was sent to investigate reports of a strange old man living in the woods. However, since he already knows Kenishi, he assures him that he can report back that there's nothing suspicious going on here. Before departing,

Norse shares some intriguing news, there's a mage in the empire who invented a remarkable condiment called mayonnaise and somehow managed to defeat a dragon with it. Konishi immediately suspects that this mysterious mage must Also be someone from Japan. With the sheer accomplishments of this individual, Kenishi can't help but feel a bit outclassed. But it's not as if he's going to cross paths with this guy anytime soon. So, the next month passes without any problems. One afternoon, while Kenishi is sitting at his stall, he suddenly remembers that Primula's supply run caravan should be arriving back soon.

So, he decides to visit her later that day. However, at that very Moment, a loud commotion erupts in the town square, prompting him to get up and check out what's going on. It turns out that a caravan was ambushed by bandits. And everyone on board was taken captive, including Primula. In the streets, Malow is desperately pleading with adventurers to help rescue his daughter. But since the bandit responsible is none other than the notorious outlaw Shaga, no one is willing to take the risk of facing him. Given the situation, it will take Several days before the

Knights Order can organize a proper rescue mission. Meanwhile, Primula is thrown into a cage by Shaga and his gang. She remains unharmed for now, but only because Shaga intends to sell her to some depraved nobles for extra profit. With no real chance of escaping on her own, her situation looks dire. Malow understands that it's only a matter of time before Primula meets a tragic fate. So in his desperation, he turns to Kenishi and Begs him for help. Kenishi isn't suited for combat in any way. But because he deeply cares about Primula, he ultimately decides to

take action. However, he doesn't have enough funds to carry out his plan. So he tells Malow that he'll need some money to make the necessary preparations. Without a second thought, Malow hands over a bag of gold coins. Willing to give Kenishi every last coin he owns if it means bringing Primula back safely. He informs Kinishi That Shaga's base of operations is located in the ruins 50 km west of Dia, which is quite a distance, meaning Kenishi will need to find a way to travel there. Looking through the vehicles available in his store, he ultimately decides

to purchase a truck. But before doing so, he warns everyone that he's about to use summoning magic and advises them to step back. Then putting on an act, he performs a ridiculous chant to convince everyone That what he's doing is real magic. Once his truck materializes, he climbs on top and calls out, asking if anyone is willing to join him in the fight. Shaga has a massive bounty on his head, so if they succeed in taking him down, there will be a huge reward for everyone involved. However, despite how tempting that sounds, no one steps

forward to accept Kenishha's offer. As Shaga is simply too dangerous, Kenishi begins to worry that he might have to handle this On his own. But just then, the bobcat he rescued last month approaches him. Even though he can't understand its language, he can tell that the bobcat is trying to say that it wants to help. Speaking of cats, Miley and the other beast folk also step forward, eager to help Kenishi since they still owe him a favor for everything he's done for them. Seeing that he has allies willing to fight alongside him. Kenishi is relieved

and immediately starts preparing them for Battle, he buys a compound bow for Miley while her brothers receive an axe and some swords. Just then, he hears another voice offering to help. And when he looks down, he sees Norseball standing there. Kinishi feels much more confident, knowing that an experienced knight will be joining them. Though he can't help but wonder why Norse just happened to be strolling through town in full armor. Norseball explains that he recently had a new sword forged using The steel Kinishi provided him and he's been looking for an opportunity to put it

to the test all day. Taking down some bandits seems like the perfect chance to do just that. One more person steps forward, expressing their desire to join, but to Kenisha's surprise, it turns out to be the magic shop owner. Kenishi immediately tries to dissuade him, insisting that it's too dangerous for someone his age. However, the old man reveals that he was once a mage in His younger days, and despite his age, his fire spells are just as deadly as they were in his prime. Realizing that having a powerful mage on their side would be a

huge advantage, Kinishi decides to let him come along, but then Anama insists that she wants to come along as well. Kinesishi tries to convince her to stay behind, pointing out that she wouldn't be able to contribute anything in a fight. However, despite not being a fighter, she argues That she can still offer moral support and cook meals for the group. She also reassures him that the moment a fight breaks out, she'll run away so he won't have to worry about protecting her. In the end, Kenishi agrees to let Anama join for moral support. But he

immediately refuses when Malo expresses his desire to come too. He firmly tells him to stay put and wait for Primula's safe return. Kenishi once again asks if anyone else is willing to join them, but The rest of the people are too afraid to face Shaga. One by one, they step back and before long, the crowd disperses. It seems that the nine of them will have to take on this challenge alone. Before setting out, Kenishi makes a stop at the guild where he officially registers as an adventurer and formally submits a notice stating that he is

pursuing Shaga's bounty. The group then sets out in Konisha's truck, but as they leave the city, all the people who were too Scared to fight begin mocking him because they think Kenishi is just going to run off with the money Malow gave him. Meanwhile, deep within the ruins, Primula's cell is unlocked so the girl Shaga captured as a slave can bring her some food. However, Primula quickly realizes that the girl is starving, so she offers her the bread instead. Grateful for Primula's kindness, the girl immediately starts eating. As she does, Primula takes the opportunity to

Ask her a few questions. She finds out that the girl is being held captive here as well. So, she asks if she wants to escape with her. The girl would love to get out of here, but she doesn't think it's possible given the current circumstances. However, Primula is sure that it's only a matter of time before help comes for them. After approaching the base, Kenishi and the others decide to take a short break. Once they finish eating, Kenishi gathers everyone Together to start their strategy meeting. He lays out a simple assault plan and the group

agrees that it's a solid approach. With the plan set, they all move into position and Miley is sent ahead to scout the area. Kenishi stays in contact with her using the radios he bought. But to keep things simple when Miley asks about them, he just tells her they're magical devices that let them communicate over long distances. With Miley now in position as their scout, Kenishi and the others climb into the truck and prepare to set off, leaving Anama behind for her own safety. Since there's no certainty that they'll come out victorious, Kenishi instructs Anama to

contact the adventurers's guild if they don't return within a day. Late into the night, Kenishi checks in with Miley for an update on the bandits. And from her observations, it looks like they're in the middle of a celebration. In fact, most of them are already drunk, Making this the perfect opportunity to strike. Just before they move in, one of the beast folk catches Kenisha's attention and hands him a nut. Confused, Kenishi asks what it's for, and the beast man explains that it's a nut meant to help distract him from the reality that he's about to

take lives. Apparently, that was good enough for Kenishi, so he takes a bite of the nut, and he is instantly sent on the most intense trip of his life. Kenishi hardly Knows what's going on anymore, but he remembers he has a mission to do. So, he gets behind the wheel and starts driving like a maniac through the forest. Over at the bandits camp, the celebrations are still in full swing. Suddenly, as two of the bandits notice the truck approaching, Miley takes them out with precise shots to the head. With that done, the next obstacle is

the castle gate. to handle it. The old man climbs onto the truck's roof and Casts an explosion spell, blasting a hole straight through. At this point, the entire bandit camp is on high alert. But it's already too late. Kinishi and the others have made it inside. Because the bandits had been drinking heavily beforehand, they're all intoxicated and unarmored, making them easy targets. Miley and her brothers swiftly take down the first few who get within range. Meanwhile, Norse steps out of the truck, eager to christen his new sword with the Blood of his enemies. Kinishi is

so impressed by Norse's strength that he gets distracted, and a bandit tries to use the opportunity to stab him in the back. But luckily, the bobcat steps in to save him just in time. More bandits begin emerging from the ruins, so Kenishi decides to pull out the big guns and summons his bulldozer to squish them. The beast folk continue to take down as many bandits as they can while Norse is busy flaunting his superiority Over them. Meanwhile, Kenishi is wreaking havoc with his bulldozer, sending the bandits into a panic. In the chaos, he accidentally crashes

through one of the walls, revealing a large group of the bandits prisoners inside, hoping to find Primula among them. He quickly scans the area. But to his horror, it turns out that Shaga had foreseen their rescue attempt. He's holding Primula hostage at the top of a tower. Primula is relieved that Kenishi Actually came to rescue her. But Shaga is mortified because all his men have been wiped out. He assumed that a party would be sent to rescue Primula eventually, but he never could have imagined that they would be this strong. However, even with the current

situation, Shaga still thinks he has the upper hand. He orders Kinishi and the others to drop their weapons immediately if they don't want him to stab her on the spot. Everyone hesitates, unwilling To make a move that could put Primula in danger. But Kenishi has no intention of letting Shaga get away. While Shaga is distracted, Kenishi discreetly buys a laser pointer and signals Miley, instructing her to take the shot as soon as he gives the command. Miley understands the signal, so Kenishi directs the laser pointer at Shaga's eye to momentarily blind him. The instant Shaga

releases Primula in pain, Miley fires a shot, hitting him right in the Shoulder, wasting no time, Konishi rushes up the stairs to get Primula to safety. But as Shaga regains his vision, he prepares to launch an attack on the two of them. Luckily, before he can do anything, the slave girl uses some kind of magic to knock him down the stairs. And once he hits the ground, he is perfectly lined up for Miley to give him a headsh shot. With that, the group emerges victorious and Primula is finally safe. Their first move is to Send

Niangi back to inform Anama of the good news. After that, Kenishi stores his vehicles away and purchases clothes for all the prisoners they managed to rescue. As everyone takes the time to clean themselves up, he notices the little girl and asks Primula to help wash her. While she's at it, he also hands her a pair of scissors so she can trim the girl's hair. Primula glances at the scissors and instantly asks Kenishi if he can sell her more, pointing out That they would be a highly popular item. However, before she can continue, the other women

quickly remind her that she's completely naked, causing her to step back in embarrassment. Once everyone is dressed, Kenishi approaches the little girl and introduces himself. She tells him her name is Anemone and reveals that she has an important letter to deliver. The letter exposes the noble who has been funding Shavea's kidnappings. And upon hearing this, Norse vows to ensure that the noble is brought to justice for his crimes. With that, the incident is finally resolved. And it seems they'll be able to return to Dia without any trouble. But before that, exhaustion catches up with everyone,

and they all settle in for the night to get some much needed rest. As the morning arrives, Kenishi drives everyone back to town, where the town's people eagerly wait, curious to see if he has managed to accomplish his Mission. As his truck rolls into town square, Primula quickly hops out and rushes into her father's embrace. Overjoyed to see him again. While they share their heartfelt reunion, Malow's attention is drawn to the dress Primula is wearing, noticing its impressive quality. With pride, she informs him that it was Kenishi who gifted it to her. In that moment,

both of them come to the same realization. Speaking of Kenishi, Malow still hasn't had the Chance to properly thank him. So, he approaches him and sincerely expresses his gratitude for helping bring his daughter back. While he's at it, Malo also asks whether Konishi was able to recover all the stolen goods from Shaga and his crew. In response, Kenishi explains that he stored everything in his item box, but the contents aren't quite what one might expect. What Kenishi actually has in his item box is a collection of heads. Back in the ruins Before Konishi and the

others made their way back to town, the beast folk informed him that he would have to take the heads of all the bandits. Shaga and his gang are quite wellknown, which means there's a hefty bounty on them. However, to claim the reward, Kenishi must provide Shaga's head as proof of his death. But since all those heads will start to stink before long, it would be far more convenient if Kenishi could store them inside his item box. This is without a doubt one of the more unsettling tasks Kenishi has had to handle. But he doesn't have

much of a choice, so he begins placing the heads into his item box. While doing so, he also gathers up everything the bandits had stolen, including a sack filled with 100 gold coins and several valuable items. On top of that, he ends up taking all the women who had been held captive by Shaga. Though he's unsure about what to do with them. Before returning to Town, he asked them if they wanted him to take them back to their villages. Some agreed, wanting to go home, but for others, their situation was different when they were captured.

Shaga had burned their homes and slaughtered their families, leaving them with nowhere to return to. Understanding their predicament, Kenishi offered to take all of them back to Dia with him as they would have a better chance at rebuilding their lives there. The women seemed Absolutely delighted by the idea. Kenishi then looks over at Anemone and asks if she knows where her hometown is. She tells him that her village is called Europe, but it's pretty far from here, about 800 km away, so getting her back there would be a long and difficult journey. Still, Kenishi is

willing to make it happen if that's what she wants. However, Anemone has no desire to return to that village as her own people had sold her into slavery. In that case, Kenishi asks her if she would like to come with him to Dia, and A immediately agrees. Kenishi then spends a while driving the women to their various destinations. And once that's done, he heads to the guild with the others to claim the bounty. The guild receptionist panics the moment a severed head is placed in front of her. But that's just the beginning. There are 50

more to go. So Konishi starts pulling them out of his storage one by one with all these Heads to inspect. The guild staff have a long and tedious task ahead of them. Meanwhile, Kenishi steps aside to take a break while they handle the work. The wizard approaches Kenishi and warns him that with his unusual summoning magic and exceptionally large item box, things could get really complicated if the nobles ever find out about him. But that's all the more reason for Kenishi to make sure he keeps a low profile. Speaking of nobles, Norse walks up to

Kenishi and tells him he's going to go meet with the local Count Essipius to inform him of the corrupt nobles that were secretly backing Shaga's crime operation. So, he's going to be leaving now. Later that night, the guild finally completes the process of calculating the reward, which amounts to a total of 861 gold coins. Kishi, wanting to be fair, suggests dividing it equally among everyone. However, Anama insists that she doesn't deserve a portion as she Didn't contribute during the mission since her life was never at risk. She feels it wouldn't be right for her to

accept a reward. That said, she does have a small request for Kenishi. She asks if he would allow her to take care of A if she were her own as the girl reminds her of her daughter. Kinishi has no reason to refuse her request, confident that Anamu will look after A well, so he entrusts her with the child and heads out into town. Now, while There's no doubt that Anama had the best intentions when offering to care for A, it only takes a few minutes before A disappeared from her side. Meanwhile, since it's already too

late to make his way back into the forest, Konishi decides to spend the night at Aelia's inn before heading inside, he sets out some food for the bobcat, thanking it for keeping him safe during their mission. The moment he steps inside, Aelia immediately lights up with Excitement, overjoyed to see him again after such a long time. Aelia had heard rumors about Kenishi defeating a large group of bandits, so she eagerly asks if it's true. However, Kenishi quickly denies it, not wanting to attract unnecessary attention. Setting that aside, she then reminds him of the supposed promise

he made to take her as his lover once his business becomes successful. But Kenishi insists he never made such a promise and more importantly Asks if there are any rooms available for him to stay in. In response, Aelia tells him that his usual room is still open. Kenishi makes his way upstairs and quickly falls asleep, completely drained from the day's events. However, later that night, he senses someone slipping under the covers with him. He already knows exactly what Aelia is after, but he groggy tells her that he's far too exhausted for that kind of activity

right now. Despite this, Aelia refuses To give up, insisting that she doesn't get to see him very often. She climbs on top of him, and just as things are about to escalate. The two suddenly realize that a child and the bobcat are standing there silently watching them. That completely ruined the mood. In the end, Aelia returned to her room while A ended up spending the night in Kenishha's room. Figuring that Anama must be extremely worried about A. Kenishi went over to her shop to check if she was There. But he didn't see any sign of

her with nothing else to do about it for now. He decided to focus on finishing the rest of his duties for the day. Kenishi still has a lot of loot from Shaga's camp. So, first he heads to the weapon store to sell the swords and shields he got. He then sells the rest of the valuables to Malow's company for 35 gold coins and takes the furniture to the old man's shop for 22 gold coins. Since the loot is going to be shared Evenly, they all end up getting 12 gold coins from it. With his errands

finally taken care of, Kenishi decides it's time to head back home. Upon arriving, A is stunned by how beautiful the place looks. But to her surprise, she finds Anama already waiting inside. Anama had been worried sick about A, but she trusted that Kenishi would eventually find her and bring her here. So, she decided to wait. However, A unexpectedly declares that she wants to live with Kenishi instead of Anama. Anama doesn't understand why she suddenly wants to stay with Konishi. So, she tries to convince A that it would be better to live with her. But A

has already made up her mind. Anama doesn't want to force her. So, she just tells A that she's always welcome to visit her whenever she wants. Anama then heads back to town and Konishi turns to return home with A. On the way back, Kenishi asks A why she wants to live with him in the first Place. However, there's no deep or philosophical reason behind it. She simply thinks Kishi makes really delicious food, so she likes him more. After that, the two take a bath together before settling into bed. This new arrangement will definitely take some

getting used to, but then again, considering A's age, it wouldn't be all that unusual for him to have a daughter. Kenishi eventually falls asleep, but as he rests, several cloaked men begin Observing his house. Luckily, the suspicious people don't do anything for now, so life goes on as it normally would for Kenishi. Two weeks pass, and due to Norse's contributions in the battle against Shaga, he is awarded the title of Baron, granted some land, and according to rumors is now searching for a wife. Meanwhile, some time ago, Konishi had shown Malow and Primula a design

for a bicycle, but they initially laughed in his face, thinking it looked Too ridiculous to ever be profitable. However, it didn't take long for them to come to their senses and realized just how useful bicycles actually are. They apologized to Kenishi for laughing at him earlier and even offered to pay him five gold coins for the idea. Now, bicycles are fairly common in the country, and Kenishi is glad that his idea made such an impact, but he's still feeling a bit uneasy because he can't shake the feeling that someone is Watching him. He ignores the

feeling for now and heads to the guild so he can receive the final payout for the reward. Once he receives his money, Konishi distributes everyone's share. Even though Anama had insisted she didn't want any, he still gives her a small portion. She doesn't believe she deserves it, but ultimately she decides to accept his kindness and in return hands a an apple. Everything appears to be going smoothly, but then out of Nowhere, Kenishi gets that unsettling feeling again. Someone is watching him. And this time, he's sure he's not imagining things because he sees the person that's

spying on him. This could be bad. So, he takes A's hand and tries to get out of the area, but he soon realizes he is being followed by more cloaked people. He's backed into a corner, so his only option is to run into the alleyway to get away. However, at the end of the alley, he finds Himself blocked in by a carriage. The cloaked men finally catch up to him, informing him that their boss wants to meet him alive. They assure him that if he cooperates, there will be no need for violence. With few options

at his disposal, Kenishi pretends to go along with their demands. However, just as they're about to load him into the carriage, he quickly pulls some firecrackers from his inventory and hurls them at the cloaked men and inside The carriage. This provides enough of a distraction for him and aim to crawl under the carriage. And now that he has created some distance, he pulls out a crossbow and points it at the men. He threatens to shoot them if they don't leave him alone. And since the kidnappers don't have any long range weapons of their own, they

are forced to flee. Kenishi lets out a sigh of relief. Glad that he managed to escape. Moments later, Malow arrives in his carriage. Having heard the commotion, he offers Kenishi and a ride. And as they travel together, Kenishi explains everything that just happened. He suspects that this was the work of a noble affiliated with the anti- monarchy faction. Malow recommends that Kenishi meet with the local lord, Eskeipius, to secure some protection. While Kenishi agrees that it might not be a bad idea, he hesitates, worried that Eskeipius could end up demanding that he start paying taxes,

And he absolutely hates taxes. In the end, he figures it might be a better option to simply leave the city altogether. After returning home, Malow tells Primula about Kenisha's decision to leave town, and Primula is upset because they haven't even gotten to properly thank Kenishi for everything he did for them. The bicycles were such a popular item that the local lord granted them a family name because of it and as such they owe Kinishi a great debt. So They can't allow him to leave until that debt has been fully repaid. Because of this, Primula has

made up her mind to leave town with him and spend as much time with Kenishi as she can. She had already attempted to win his affection once before only to be rejected. However, when she was kidnapped, Kenishi didn't hesitate for even a moment to risk his life to rescue her. So, Primula is convinced that Kenishi must care about her deeply. And if that's the Case, then he'll surely wait to see her before leaving town. However, it turns out she may have overestimated his feelings because he's already gone. And not just him, but his entire house

as well. Meanwhile, Kenishi is cruising along on his new motorcycle. and he must be pretty confident in his riding skills because he only bought a helmet for A, not for himself. As he rides, he happens to spot a familiar carriage and knows who it belongs to. So, he pulls up Beside Fou and greets him. It's been quite some time since Konishi last saw Fau, so they take a moment to catch up. During their conversation, Fou learns that Konishi did in fact become a merchant. He also discovers that Konishi was the one who came up with

the bicycle invention. now has a daughter and is currently on the road. Naturally, this makes him curious about where they're headed next. Kenishi explains that he and his new family are traveling, though He isn't entirely sure where their journey will take them. Fau wishes them luck. And with that, Kenishi and the others jumps back onto the motorcycle and speed up riding off into the distance. Kenishi and Anemone have been on the road for quite some time now, covering a distance of nearly 100 km from Dia. However, they are only about 5 or 6 km away

from their next stop, the town of Astranchia. During their journey, Kenishi has been camping Alongside Anemone, preparing all kinds of delicious meals, making this experience quite similar to the peaceful life he has always dreamed of. Even so, with Anemone by his side, he feels the need to find a more permanent place to settle down soon for her well-being. To help him find the next town, Konishi purchases a drone and sends it up to survey the surroundings. He soon discovers that the river flows into a lake with Arstrancha likely situated on The opposite shore. With that

in mind, he takes Anemone and the bobcat and begins traveling downstream. Eventually, they reach a spot that offers a beautiful view of the lake, prompting Kenishi to let Anemone and the bobcat play in the water for a while. Since the area looks so appealing, he decides that this will be the perfect place to build his new home. After cutting away a good portion of the vegetation, Konishi takes his house out of his item box. As he Gets everything in place, he suddenly realizes that he never actually gave the bobcat a name. Taking a moment to

think it over, he spends a few minutes considering different options before finally settling on a name. That night, Kenishi begins teaching Anemone how to read and write. And since she's quite smart, she picks it up fairly quickly. However, when it comes to math, she finds it a bit more challenging. While Anemone struggles to solve the math Problems, Kenishi takes a moment to check his store window, hoping to find a way to get diesel at a lower cost. Up until now, he's been making his own diesel using kerosene and additives, but he recalls seeing a show

that mentioned biodiesel could be made from cooking oil. Not entirely sure how the process works, he decides to purchase a couple of books to learn more about it. As Kenishi is reading, Anemone finishes her homework and asks if she can read along With him. He explains that she won't be able to understand it since the book is written in the language of his homeland. But Anemone insists that she wants to learn that language as well. Seeing how eager she is, Kenishi decides to buy a children's book for her. And without wasting any time, she dives

right into studying it. Next on Kenishha's list, he begins setting up camouflage around his house to make it blend in better with the surroundings. While he's in the Middle of that, he suddenly hears rustling coming from the bushes. The sound immediately puts him on alert as it could mean a monster is lurking nearby. Ready for anything, he loads his crossbow and prepares to defend himself against whatever might emerge. However, to his surprise, the source of the noise turns out to be Miley. She was devastated when Kenishi disappeared without telling her. So, she worked hard to

track his scent and followed him all The way here. And now that she's here, she has nowhere else to go. So, she says she will be living with Kenishi from now on. Kenishi doesn't really mind and Anemone seems to get along great with Miley. So, it is agreed that Miley will live with them. While having dinner, Kenishi asks Miley if anything interesting has happened since he left Dia. She doesn't think there's been much going on, but she does remember hearing that Norse proposed to Primula, and the Two are set to get married soon. Kenishi is

happy to hear that Primula was able to move on and get engaged to a good guy like Norse, though he realizes he won't be able to attend the wedding since he's now so far away. Later that night, Kenishi takes a bath with Anemone as usual while Miley washes herself nearby. Once everyone is dried off, they head back inside. Anemone excitedly shows Miley the Japanese book Kenishi gave her, and Miley finds it really Enjoyable. Even though she can't read the words, the pictures make it easy to understand. Hearing her say that sparks an idea in Kenishi

since books are considered valuable in this world. Selling picture books could turn out to be a highly profitable venture. Although the stories from Japan probably won't appeal to the people of this world. Kenishi asks Anemone and Miley if they know any local legends. They are both excited to hear this since they know a Ton of old legends, but one in particular stands out to Kenishi. So he asks them to tell him more about the forest elf legend. Kenishi finds the story really enjoyable, so he quickly gets to work creating illustrations for it. Once he finishes

the drawings, he purchases an ink press and uses it to produce multiple copies. The first two copies go to Miley and Anemone, and both girls absolutely love their books. However, as they are admiring the Illustrations, Kenishi suddenly spots a boat approaching. Sensing that this could spell trouble, he instructs the girls to go back inside for now. As the boat approaches the shore, Kamishi points his crossbow at the men aboard and demands to know why they are here. The man tells Konishi to calm down because he's not here to cause any trouble. He's from the village

of Santanka. And after seeing that someone moved in on the other side of the lake, They decided to come take a closer look to make sure that there weren't any bandits here. This helps Kenishi relax a bit. So, he lowers his crossbow and explains that he's a merchant who recently moved into the area. At that moment, Vel walks over to Kenishi and the beast folk is taken aback as bobcats are known for never forming bonds with people. Seeing that Kenishi has managed to befriend one convinces him that he must be a trustworthy person. Crouton Chooses

to take the beast man's word for it. So, he introduces himself to Kenishi and the Beastman follows suit. Konishi decides to show Crouton and Nyanas around his house to prove that he isn't doing anything dangerous and everything looks pretty normal. So Crouton apologizes for the intrusion and then prepares to leave. But before he does, he notices the books Kenishi made on the table and asks if Kenishi would let him buy one for his daughter and Kenishi Agrees. Once Crouton and Nana's leave, Kenishi and the girls sit down for lunch together. Afterward, Anemone stays inside, spending

some time reading, while Konishi heads into the forest to search through the bushes for medicinal herbs. However, before long, Miley approaches him. Since Anemone is busy at the moment, she hopes to have some alone time with Kenishi, unable to turn her down. One thing leads to another and things happen again. A little while Later, Kenishi gets to work on his latest project. But all of a sudden, he runs out of the shed because the hazmat suit he was wearing made him incredibly sweaty. So, he jumps in the river and takes a break. Once he gets

back to work, it's revealed that Kenishi has been focused on synthesizing biodeiesel from cooking oil. Although the process is quite dangerous, if he succeeds, he'll be able to produce his own diesel without having to spend a fortune. Now Comes the most critical part, testing the fuel. He pumps it into the generator and luckily it doesn't explode, meaning Kenisha's experiment was a success. Next on the agenda is visiting the town of Astranchia. So Kenishi heads out with Miley and Anemone. Their first stop upon entering the city is the adventurer's guild since Kenishi needs to register. They

walk inside and head to the receptionist's desk. But as they greet the receptionist, there are two big Things Kenishi can't keep his eyes off. After snapping out of his thoughts, Kenishi informs the receptionist that he wants to register with both the city's adventurers guild and merchant guild. At the same time, Miley also registers as an adventurer. The receptionist takes their IDs and heads to the back to process their registrations. However, when she returns, she looks a bit flustered. Having just checked Kenishha's file, she realizes that he's The one who defeated Shaga. Kenishi quickly tells her

to keep her voice down as he's trying to maintain a low profile. The receptionist catches on immediately and assures him that his registration is complete, allowing him to go about his day as usual. After leaving the guild, they all settle down in the town square to have a meal. However, since spices in this country are still under the control of the spice syndicate, all the food tastes rancid. Anemone and Miley clearly aren't enjoying their meals. So, Kinishi hands them a bit of his spice blend to add some muchneeded flavor. Just then, he spots a couple

of thugs with JoJo style hair lurking around, and they definitely look like they're up to no good. Still, as long as it doesn't concern him, Kenishi decides to mind his own business. At the same time, he notices Crouton walking into an alleyway with a young girl, and something about it seems Suspicious, but again, it's not Kenisha's problem. He carries on with his sightseeing and comes across an old magic shop that looks interesting. So, he heads inside. He finds an old lady running the shop and while looking around, he notices a magic device on display. So,

he asks her what it does. Granny is more than happy to demonstrate its function. She pours some water into one compartment and a lot of wine into the other, and as a result, all the Water is separated out of the wine. The first thought that crosses Kenisha's mind upon seeing this is that he can use it to produce his diesel without exposing himself to harmful chemical fumes that could shorten his lifespan. He tells Granny that he wants to buy a magic device and she's taken a back as hardly anyone ever actually offers to purchase anything

here. But since Kenishi is a paying customer, there's no way she's going to refuse. Meanwhile, it Seems like Anemone has also found something that interests her. She excitedly shows Kenishi a book she picked up. Granny explains that it's a grimoire and the moment Kenishi hears that, he immediately decides to buy it as well. He isn't sure if he'll be able to use it, though since wielding magic requires a certain level of magic power. After purchasing the book, Kenishi is eager to start reading it with Anemone right away, but Granny stops them, Explaining that grimmoirs must

be registered before a customer is allowed to take them. Since the process takes some time, Konishi will have to return for it in a week. He doesn't mind waiting, so he and the others leave to continue exploring the town. However, as they step outside, they unexpectedly run into Nyanas. He looks surprised to see them, but is clearly in a hurry and doesn't have time for a conversation. Kenishi gets a bad feeling that he's About to get dragged into something troublesome, so he decides they should all head home. But before they can do so, the group

spots Crouton and his daughter being attacked in an alleyway. Konishi can't ignore it this time, leaving him with no choice but to step in. However, before taking action, he purchases a plague doctor mask to conceal his identity from the thugs. These thugs hold a deep grudge against Crouton and were fully intent on ending Both his and his daughter's lives. Just as they are about to carry out their plan, Kenishi suddenly appears behind them, launching fireworks into the air. He boldly claims that the fireworks are just one of his many magic spells. Unfamiliar with such a

spectacle, the thugs panic and flee in terror. Once he ensures that the man is safe, Crouton sits down by the fountain and begins recounting the entire story to Kenishi. Back when Crouton used to work as a Government official. He worked hard and arrested a bunch of members of the spice syndicate, and ever since they've been targeting him. Crouton's daughter asks if Kenishi and the others are his friends. So, Crouton explains that he met Kenishi a few days ago and he's the one who made the picture book he bought for her. Mary gets excited after hearing

that her favorite book was made by Kenishi. So, she starts thanking him for it, but Anemone gets a little jealous, So she mentions that she helped make the book as well. So, Mary thanks her as well and asks if they can make a book together sometime. And Anemone says she would love to. Kenishi is glad to see that Anemone finally has a friend the same age as her. A few days later, Crouton and his wife brought Mary to visit Kenishi and Anemone. Since this was their first time having guests, Konishi took the opportunity to prepare

a meal for everyone to share. From that Moment on, it became a regular occurrence for them to spend time together with Mary and Anemone happily playing while the others enjoyed each other's company. However, one day, Mary didn't show up like she usually does. Instead, a desperate crouton came begging Kenishi for his help. He tells Kenishi that Mary got sick with one of this nation's diseases, and most children who contract it don't even survive one night. So, he needs to do Something to help her soon. He's ready to spend every last coin he has if it

means saving Mary. But hiring a mage to use healing magic is beyond his reach, leaving Kenishi as his only hope. Kenishi refuses to stand idly by while Anemone's friend is in pain. So he hands Crouton a pack of painkillers, instructing him to give them to Mary to help lower her fever. Hopefully, he also gave some guidance on the proper dosage. Although the painkillers will help Reduce Mary's fever, they won't cure her. So Kenishi quickly rushes off to summon the magic granny for assistance. Later that night, everyone gathers at Crouton's house to check on Mary. And

as soon as Granny arrives, she instantly recognizes that Mary is suffering from a condition known as Chakori fever. Though difficult to cure with healing magic, the illness is treatable, but it requires the seeds of a rare flower that only grows deep in the forest. Someone Must retrieve them before morning. So, Kinishi, Crouton, and Nyanas set out on the mission. However, as they depart, it becomes clear that the Spice Syndicate thugs had been watching the entire situation unfold. And with Kinishi and Crouton now gone, they are undoubtedly planning to make their move. Kinishi and the group

quickly make their way to the river where the chory flower seeds are located. He takes out an inflatable raft and rose into the water to retrieve a Seed. It doesn't take much time for him to spot a cluster of the flowers. So, he plucks one of the seeds and gives it to Crouton, who is deeply grateful for all his assistance. However, their mission isn't over yet. As they still need to deliver the seed to Mary to cure her. To make matters worse, they face another challenge. Na senses something coming their way and soon they realize

it's a pack of black wolves. By the time they notice it's already too late to escape. They're completely surrounded. Kenishi has faced the black wolves before. So he purchases two swords and gives them to Crouton and Nyanas. The priority at this moment is ensuring Mary receives the medicine. So he instructs them to sprint back to the house as quickly as possible while he stays behind to fend off the wolves. To distract the wolves, he starts launching fireworks, drawing their attention and steering them away from Crouton. However, a few wolves Manage to separate from the pack

and trap Crouton and Nyanas. Realizing they're in danger, Kenishi hurries back as fast as he can to assist them. But as this is happening, we notice those thugs from earlier concealed behind the trees, apparently controlling the wolves using some kind of whistle. The wolves then turn their aggression toward Nyanas and Crouton, forcing the two to defend themselves with the swords Kinishi provided. The thugs grow furious, seeing Crouton somehow managing to hold his own, but their intense malice allows Vel to detect their presence. Without hesitation, she swiftly takes down all the thugs. Belle then goes after

the Dogman, striking him and causing him to drop his whistle. The moment the whistle falls, the wolves immediately cease their attack on Crouton. Kenishi witnesses this and understands that the thugs must have been controlling the wolves the entire time. Now that the Dogman has lost his whistle, he urges Nyanas to take Crouton and escape while they still can. The Dogman, however, manages to push Vel off and retrieves his whistle, attempting to command the wolves to chase after Crouton, but the wolves appear too frightened to obey. Confusion sets in as no one understands what's happening until

suddenly a massive bear emerges. The wolves quickly grasp the severity of the danger they're in and scatter, fleeing the forest. The First to fall to the bear's fury is the dogman. After collapsing to the ground, he looks unmistakably dead. The bear then shifts its focus and charges toward Keshi, but Vel steps in, blocking its path and clawing at the bear's face. Kenishi thanks Vel for her assistance and quickly pulls out more fireworks, hoping to scare the bear away. This time he uses 10 times the usual amount, confident it will be enough to drive the beast

off. However, to his astonishment, The bear gobbles up the fireworks, causing a massive explosion inside its mouth. While the bear is still dazed from the blast, Kenishi seizes the moment and brings out his bulldozer, delivering a powerful blow to the bear's face to finally take it down. With the bear now dead, Konishi stores its body in his inventory along with his bulldozer, relieved to have survived the intense fight. However, he still has to figure out what to do with the Unconscious dogman. After some time, Kenishi heads back to Crouton's house to check on Mary's condition.

Thanks to the medicine he retrieved, she's expected to make a full recovery, leaving Crouton and his wife immensely grateful to Kenishi. While Kenishi isn't usually the type to go out of his way to save others, he can't deny that helping out in this situation has left him feeling pretty good about himself. At that moment, Kenishi recalls something Important he needs to discuss with Crouton. So, he asks to speak with him privately for a moment. The two step outside and Kenishi explains to Crouton that he managed to strike a deal with the dogman in the woods.

He bandaged the Dogman's wounds to prevent him from dying, and in return, the Dogman promised never to harm Crouton or his family again. The dogman agreed to the terms, though he made it clear he has no control over the actions of the other Thugs as many of them still hold deep grudges against Crouton. As a result, they will undoubtedly keep targeting him. Though the situation might change if Crouton were to leave the town altogether, Kenishi suggests to Crouton that leaving the town might be the best course of action as it would guarantee no one comes

after him or his family again. Crouton acknowledges that moving away would be the ideal solution, but he admits he has nowhere to go and he can't Relocate to Dia since the Spice Syndicate operates there as well. Kenishi pauses to think for a moment and then proposes a solution to Crouton's problem. He mentions that he knows a knight named Norseball, who recently became a baron and is currently looking for people to settle on his lands. if Kenishi writes a letter to Norse praising Crouton's qualities and skills. He's confident Norseball would allow Crouton and his family to

move there. The next day, Kenishi finally returns home and tells the others what happened while he was gone. But Miley is upset because he went on such an amazing adventure without telling her. Konishi says there was no time to come get Miley. Plus, he needed someone to look after Anemone while he was gone. So, there's no way Miley could have gone with him. A few days later, Crouton and his family finally decide to move away for their safety. So, Crouton heads to Norseball's territory first to set things up, while Mary and her mother wait behind

because Mary still hasn't fully recovered yet. While Kenishi and Miley are out for a walk, Miley suddenly picks up the scent of blood. And that's when she spots a dogman hiding behind a tree. Kenishi realizes it's the same dogman they encountered a few days earlier and asks him what he's doing there. The dogman calmly explains that he made a promise not to harm Crouton, So he's been wrapping up some loose ends to ensure no other thugs come after him. After all, he adds, "Dog folks always keep their word." However, after his recent violent spree, the

Dogman admits he can no longer stay in the city, so he'll be leaving as well. Later that day, Kenishi makes his way into town to sell the bear he killed at the guild. The man responsible for dissection is astonished that Kenishi managed to take down a tusk bear all by himself, but Kenishi humbly replies that he just got lucky. He mentions that he'd like to keep the bear's meat and the magic stone for himself and is only interested in selling the rest to the guild. The man says he understands, but given the bear's massive size,

it's going to take him quite a while to finish dissecting it. He asks Kenishi to come back in the evening to collect his earnings. Kenishi doesn't mind waiting a bit and since it's still only midday, he decides to Head home and work on finishing up one of his projects. As Konishi walks past a shop, he notices a familiar face inside, and it looks like she's searching for someone who's very important to her. Meanwhile, back at Kenisha's house, he finally takes the time to use the artifact he purchased to produce biodeiesel. After a lot of careful

chemistry work, Kenishi successfully creates what he believes to be pure diesel for his engines. The only way to Confirm if it worked is to test it in his generator. When he turns it on, the generator doesn't explode, which means his experiment was a success. Using this method, he managed to produce a liter of diesel for just 300 yen. A significant improvement compared to the 3,000 yen per liter he used to spend. Clearly, that artifact was an excellent investment. Now that that's taken care of, Kenishi decides to leave some food out for Miley and Anemone since

he's Heading back into town to grab a few things. His first stop is the old woman's shop to check if his grimoire is finally ready. Luckily, she's completed all the registration procedures, so Kenishi is able to take his grimoire. As he examines the book, he's surprised to notice that it has a magic stone embedded in it. The woman then explains that the incantation recorded in the grimoire is tied to that magic stone, meaning the spell won't activate without It. Kenishi isn't entirely sure what she's talking about, but he figures he'll work out the whole magic

thing later on. Next on his list, Kenishi makes his way to the adventurer's guild to collect his items. When he gets there, everything is already packed and ready, so he stores it away in his storage. After that, he heads to the front desk to receive his payment for the parts he sold to the guild. However, Kenishi finds it hard to focus on the Money with those two melons right in front of him. Eventually, he snaps out of it, takes his payment, and leaves the guild. But as he's walking down the street, he gets this odd

sensation like someone's watching him. It turns out Kenisha's intuition was right because someone was indeed keeping an eye on him and that someone is Primula. He's completely shocked to see her and immediately asks what she's doing all the way out here. But Primula fires Back, questioning how he could have been so cruel as to leave without her. Konishi tries to explain that the only reason he left Dia was because of the nobles trying to capture him, but Primula insists that he should have at least said goodbye to her. Konishi can sense that this outburst is

drawing a lot of attention, so he suggests they continue the conversation somewhere more private. Primula agrees and takes him to the hotel where she's staying. Once There, she starts yelling at Kenishi again, upset that he left without giving her a chance to repay him for everything he's done for her. Konishi doesn't feel like he did all that much, but Primula quickly reminds him that he saved her life, which means she owes him a massive debt of gratitude. Konishi starts to feel a bit uneasy, so he shifts the conversation and brings up the rumors he heard

about Primula getting married to Norse. While there were indeed Discussions about it, Primula ultimately rejected the engagement, but she brushes that aside, saying it's not the point. Primula declares that she's not going back home unless Kenishi agrees to come with her. However, Konishi has no plans to leave. So, Primula decides she'll just stay here with him instead. Kenishi can see that she's completely serious, so he realizes he doesn't have many options in this situation. Still, he's surprised that she managed to figure out He was living in this city. Primula explains that after Kenishi left, she

spent every single day checking the guild registry, hoping his name would appear in another city. And sure enough, one day, she spotted his name on an updated registry without hesitation, she hopped on a carriage and came straight here. Now that she's found him again, she doesn't beat around the bush and gets straight to the point, asking him to make her a woman tonight. Kenishi is Completely caught off guard, but he can see how serious Primula is, so he agrees and the two of them head up to her room. As soon as they enter, Primula starts

removing all of her clothes, unable to wait any longer. And well, you can guess what happened next. The following morning, Kenishi returns to his house with Primula. At first, Anemone and Miley are thrilled to see him, but their excitement quickly fades when they notice Primula. Primula on the other Hand gets upset because she believes Kenishi left her behind but decided to bring Miley with him instead. Konishi explains to her that he didn't intentionally bring Miley along. She simply tracked him down on her own. The only person he deliberately chose to bring with him was Anemone.

But is Primula really going to allow herself to feel jealous over a child? Kenishi raises a valid point which helps Primula settle down for the time being. However, Anemone then insists that Kenishi promised not to bring any other women back. This stirs up Primula's emotions once more as she starts to believe Kenishi has been bringing women home regularly. Later that evening, Kenishi prepares a bath. But when it's time to get in, all the girls insist they want to join him, not wanting to deal with the situation. He decides to buy a second barrel. So, there

are two separate baths. Once everyone has Finished bathing, Kenishi sets up a blow dryer. After they're all dry, he sits down at the table to test out the grimoire. He reads the incantations for a fireball spell. But as he finishes casting, his fears are confirmed. Nothing happens. This confirms he has no magical power, and he realizes he's wasted a significant amount of money on a book he can't even use. He begins brainstorming ways to sell the grimoire in hopes of recouping some of his money. However, while he was lost in thought, Anemone picked up the

book and started reading it. This time something actually happens. It seems Anemone has a considerable amount of magical power as she manages to cast the fireball spell perfectly on her very first attempt. Unfortunately, they're inside a log cabin, which isn't the ideal place for such a spell. Kenishi panics and quickly purchases multiple fire extinguishers to tackle the fire. After dealing with the Flames, he goes to check on Anemone. She begins to apologize for all the trouble she's caused. But Kenishi isn't concerned about the incident itself. Instead, he's far more astonished that Anemone managed to use

magic. However, out of nowhere, Anemone collapses, causing everyone to grow worried. They take her to bed, and fortunately, by the next morning, her fever starts to subside. Konishi offers her a can of peaches to help boost her blood sugar. The others also have some peaches, and Primula is takenback by the amount of sugar in them. as nobles in the country hold a total monopoly over sugar. After a bit of bed rest, Anemone was feeling fine. So, a few days later, once Mary had fully recovered from the chory fever, Kamishi invited her over for a barbecue.

He still had plenty of wild bear meat on hand and thought this would be a great way to use it up. Sharing a hunt with close friends is exactly the Kind of peaceful, simple life he's been dreaming of. Kenishi takes pride in the fact that his cooking skills are appreciated. So, he decides to impress everyone with a new bear curry recipe he's created. When they all taste the soup, they're amazed because bear meat is typically tough and has a strong smell. But this dish transforms it into something incredibly delicious. As the day progresses, Mary and

Anemone spend time playing together while Kenishi Assists them in creating their own picture books. However, this is the first time Primula has ever come across such books. So, she curiously asks Kenishi about them. He explains that they are simply books that use illustrations to convey a story. After taking a moment to think, Primula quickly identifies a potential audience for the books and is already considering plans to expand sales all the way to the royal capital. She asks Kenishi if she Can use the picture books as she's planning to start a business in Astrancha. Kenishi has

no problem giving her a few books, but he's curious about what else she intends to sell. Primula has already considered this and confidently tells him that she can also sell the canned peaches Kenishi has along with the bear stew he made since both are incredibly delicious. She's certain they'll sell out in no time. However, they'll need someone to assist With customer service. So, Mary's mother steps up and offers to help. She feels it would be wrong not to contribute after everything Kenishi has done for her and her family. Plus, since Primula is still unfamiliar with

Astrancha, having someone who knows the area well would be beneficial. Mary also volunteers to help as she's now old enough to start working. Seeing that everyone else will be involved in running the new stall, Anemone doesn't Want to be left out either, so she eagerly declares that she'll work there, too. The following day, Primula is eager to get started, so Konishi takes her to the city gate and purchases a food cart for her to use. As the day progresses, the food cart gradually gains traction with customers arriving from all directions. However, the growing attention also

draws in a few bandits who sneak a bug into their bowl and then falsely accuse Primula of serving Contaminated food. Meanwhile, Kenishi is occupied with land surveying using his drone. From what he can see, the forest at top the hill remains completely untouched, making him confident that he'll come across plenty of medicinal herbs and wild vegetables. However, what he wasn't expecting was to discover a large number of gemstones embedded in the rock. The colors of these gems are unlike anything he's ever seen before, so he isn't sure exactly what they are, But he's certain they

must be valuable. It seems he'll be trying his hand at mining soon, but that will have to wait for another day as he needs to head back to town to pick up Primula and the others. Kenishi rides into town on his motorcycle and spots the group waiting with all their belongings packed up. Primula excitedly announces that they completely sold out on their very first day, which makes Kenishi happy to hear. However, he quickly notices a new beast Woman standing with them and asks who she is. Primula then begins explaining what happened earlier that day. How

two men tried to blackmail her by planting a bug in the food. But before the situation could escalate, Naima stepped in and exposed them, revealing that she had witnessed them sneaking the bug into the dish. Since Naima despises scammers, she decided to take matters into her own hands. The two men panicked and fled. And after that, Primula chose to hire Naima as her bodyguard for the rest of the day. Kenishi expresses his gratitude to Naima for being such a great help, but she brushes it off, saying it was nothing. In fact, she considers herself lucky

to have met Primula since she got paid a silver coin just for glaring at troublemakers. The group then makes their way back to Kenishha's house together. As they arrive, Miley and Anemone come outside to greet him, but Miley's mood quickly shifts when she Notices that Kenishi has brought home another woman. Sensing her hostility, Kenishi quickly explains that Naima is simply a bodyguard that Primula hired and that she's only here because Primula wanted to treat her to dinner. Miley is fine with it so long as Naima isn't planning to become yet another rival for Kenishha's affection.

They go inside to enjoy dinner. Naima gets her first taste of Kenisha's bare meat stew and is astonished by how delicious it is. The Only thing that could make it even better, she thinks, is a glass of wine to go with it. Fortunately, Kenishi happens to have some, so he pours her a glass, and she practically melts with satisfaction after taking a sip. As they continue eating, Kenishi asks if she'd like to take a bath once she's finished. Hearing this, Naima's ears perk up in excitement at the thought of a hot bath. Since the baths

will be put to use, Anemone offers to heat them up. They Step outside, and Anemone begins to cast her fireball spell, instantly heating up the bath barrels by setting it ablaze. She repeats the process for the second barrel, and everyone is amazed at how skilled she has become with her magic. Afterward, they all take their baths and dry off using Kenisha's blow dryer. Once they're finished, they change into their bedtime clothes. Naima has been enjoying her time here so much that she's thinking about staying permanently. However, Miley is firmly opposed to the idea, arguing that

there are already too many women living here as it is. They soon spot Kenishi in the midst of a lesson with Anemone and decide to ask him what he's doing. Kenishi explains that he is teaching Anemone some fundamental writing and math skills to help expand her knowledge. In a world like this, making a living without an education can be quite challenging. So, he wants her to learn as much as she can While she has the opportunity. He then asks if she would be open to joining Primula and the others the next time they take the

food card into town so she can gain some insight into the business. However, Anemone responds that she would prefer to continue learning magic so she can stay by Kenishha's side. The following day, Primula and the others return to town to continue running the cart business, and it remains just as popular as it was the day before. However, with Naame acting as their bodyguard, they don't have to worry about any troublemakers. stirring up problems. Meanwhile, Kenishi has just finished constructing a scaffolding with Miley and Anemone's assistance, preparing to begin excavating the gemstones as soon as possible.

But since it's already getting quite late, he decides to leave it for tomorrow. As he packs up his things, Primula walks over and asks how he always manages to have Such useful items stored in his item box. Kenishi, however, simply tells her it's a secret. No matter how much she presses him, there are just some things he can't reveal. He realizes that might make him seem suspicious, but she'll just have to deal with it. After that, he kisses her only for Naame to complain, telling Kenishi to cut out the romance since it's just reminding her

of how single she is. The following day, the group heads back to the plane. After Kenishi clears away some of the overgrown vegetation, they all start searching the area for various interesting plants. While the others are busy combing through the bushes, Konishi begins carving into the mountainside to extract some of the gemstones. Once he manages to pry one loose, he tosses it into his item box to have it appraised. To his delight, the gem is valued at 200,000 yen each with so many of them embedded in the mountain side. Kenishi Realizes he's practically struck gold,

or rather gems. After a productive day of profitable gem mining, the group makes their way home and Kenishi gets started on preparing dinner. He has something special planned, so he has the girls help grind some of the bare meat before teaching them how to wrap the gyoza. However, Miley and Naima have to sit this step out due to all their fur. After all the pieces have been carefully folded, Kinishi places them in a pan to Cook, and before long, the gyoza is ready to be served. Everyone is captivated by its delicious flavor and perfect texture,

especially when paired with the yellow sauce Kenishi prepared. When they ask about it, he explains that the sauce is mayonnaise. Naima immediately recognizes the name, as mayonnaise has become quite popular in the empire lately. It turns out that a mage had created it using magic, so Primula asks Kenishi if he also used Magic to make his mayonnaise. Kinishi, however, explains that he simply made it with vinegar, eggs, and oil. Primula is stunned to learn that something as incredible as mayonnaise can be made without any magic involved, and she eagerly asks Kenishi to teach her how

to make it, but he's not in the mood to do that at the moment. So, he responds in another moment. Hearing this, Primula asks if he would be willing to let her sell his gyoza recipe at her food stall The next day. Kenishi has no objections, but he warns her that making Jioza is quite labor intensive, so he's not sure she'll be able to keep up with the demand. However, Primula reassures him that won't be an issue since she can always hire more workers. Kenishi is impressed by her proactive attitude, so he decides to teach

her one more of his recipes. He asks everyone to follow him outside, saying he has something special to show them. Without hesitation, he Pours some liquor over the meat, creating a massive fireball. Once the steak is perfectly grilled, he offers Naama the first bite. She goes completely silent after tasting it, prompting Kenishi to ask if something is wrong with the steak. However, it's quite the opposite. She's speechless because the steak is absolutely perfect. That said, she does notice it has a peculiar smell. Kenishi explains that the scent likely comes from the liquor He used to

marinate the steak. As soon as he mentions liquor, Naimna immediately jumps on him, begging for a drink. After some persuasion, Kenishi reluctantly agrees to let her have a little, but he warns her that the drink is quite strong and advises her to take it slow. Na, however, completely disregards his warning and gulps down the entire glass in one go. She instantly gets drunk and wraps her arms around Kenishi, thanking him for the Liquor. However, Miley sees exactly where this is headed and quickly grabs Naima by the hair to pull her off him. Naima tries to

reassure Miley that she's not trying to steal Kenishi away from her. She just wants him to let her stay in the shed so she can continue enjoying delicious meals with him and the others. Miley still isn't convinced, but Kenishi doesn't see any issue with letting Na stay, especially since she serves as Primula's bodyguard. Primula agrees, Saying she has no problem with Na living there. Considering all she really wants is food, there's no way she'd try to seduce Kenishi when no one is around. A little later, once they're alone, Kenishi takes Na to see the room

he prepared for her. She then asks how much she'll need to pay for rent. Kenishi assures her that she doesn't need to pay rent as long as she continues to help Primula out. With that, he tries to leave, but Naima grabs him and suggests She could repay him in another way. However, Miley, sensing the flirtatious tone from a mile away, bursts through the door and steps into the room to join the conversation. Several weeks have passed and Kenishi continues his mining operation, having earned around 15 million yen from the Rodinite Stones so far. However, that

amount is nothing in comparison to Primula's food stall, which has steadily grown into a full-fledged company called Corolla, Employing a large number of workers. The business now brings in over 200,000 yen per day, meaning its annual revenue exceeds 70 million yen. Konishi still finds it hard to believe that Primula managed to build all of this from scratch in just a few weeks. Though a significant part of her success comes from the incredible products he introduced. Konishi is simply grateful that he's been able to spend the past few weeks focusing on his own projects As it

has been a truly relaxing experience for him. He wishes he could continue enjoying this peaceful lifestyle, but it seems that won't last much longer. He's about to receive rather problematic visitors. Word of his accomplishments has reached the royal castle, and it appears two women are especially eager to meet him. On a large private property, Primula is sitting next to Kenan, the wife of Viccount Euptorum. Both greet each other and Kenan comments that she has heard a lot about Primula as she is the daughter of the owner of Dalia Malow trading company which invented Dreine and

owns Corolla restaurant. Meanwhile, Konishi narrates that Primula is visiting the house of the Lord of Astranchia. Kenishi is at Granny's shop. He buys a book on explosion magic while Anemone is reading a book on household magic. So, the old woman gives the second book to them for free. Later at night, the group sits While Primula explains that Kanon wants a brooch because when she visited Dia, another noble woman boasted about a special brooch that only Melo company produces, which made Kenon feel inferior. Kenishi comments on how the nobles always compete for such things and gives

Primula a stone which has a woman elegantly carved onto it. When Primula shockingly claims that the woman looks like Kanan, Kenishi makes up a story telling her to tell the Vic Countess that the brooch was specifically customized for her and get a large sum of money out of her. In the group, a tigress is also sitting. So, Miley explains that one random day, a tigress named Naima started calling herself the bodyguard of Primula and started living with them. Miley further adds that Naima pretends that she only cares for food, but Miley believes that Naima is

interested in Kinishi. Miley decides that she will fight Naimna for a Decade if she has to, but she won't let her have Kenishi. The next morning, Miley tells Kenishi that there is a dungeon nearby, but she didn't mention this at dinnertime because then Naimna would have asked to tag along. Kinishi tells Miley to try and become friends with Na, but Miley refuses to do so. Their conversation is interrupted by an excited Anemone who says that she wants to explore the dungeon as well. And Miley tries to change Anemone's mind by Telling her that there will

be monsters in the dungeon, but Kenishi agrees to take Anemone with them upon her insistence. The three head into the dungeon and they are fascinated by how beautiful it is. As they venture deep into the dungeon, they take pictures at various spots. Eventually, Konishi discovers expensive crystals and starts to drill them while thinking about the fortune he can make from them. However, the drilling sound is too loud for Anemone and Miley as they've never seen a machine like that being used. And Kenishi tells Miley to take Anemone to the other side of the cave, so

she doesn't hear the loud drilling noise. Suddenly, Miley hears footsteps and warns Kenishi that someone is coming. A large spider emerges from within the dungeon, awakened by the sound of drilling, and Kenishi quickly summons weapons for the possible fight. Kenishi is at the same time amazed by the huge Size of the spider, but Miley tells him to attack the spider. However, the spider doesn't get slightly damaged by the arrow thrown at him as its skin is hard as rock. Miley throws another arrow that lands on the eye of the spider and it causes it to

scream in pain. Realizing eyes as the spider's weak point, Kenishi orders Anemone to use her fireball magic to attack the spider's eyes. But Anemone is so stressed by the spider's appearance that she is unable To do anything. The spider then launches its thread on them, and Miley quickly has to drag Anemone away from being trapped in the spider web. Kenishi throws a few bombs onto the spider to distract it and summons his motorbike before ordering everyone to run out of the dungeon. Once they get out, Kenishi comments on how the spider didn't pursue them outside,

so Miley explains that cave spiders only come out to hunt at night. Anemone is still shaken, so Kenishi hugs her while telling her that she isn't ready for adventures yet. Anemone apologizes, but Konishi comforts her for trying her best. Later at night while showering, Naimna is angry that she wasn't included in the adventure. But Konishi tells them not to fight as they will have to go back into the cave to retrieve his drilling machine. He expresses a desire to get the crystals as well. And Nima says that she will go with them this time. Kenishi

says that Someone will have to stay back to protect Primula, but Primula says that she wants to take a few days off so she can be left alone. However, taking days off is so uncharacteristic of Primula that Kenishi questions if she is okay and Primula reassures him that she is fine. Naimna announces that tomorrow morning they will head into the cave and is excited to fight the spider. The entire group sits in front of the heater and Kenishi tells Anemone that the Grimoire has been registered, so he picked it up. Anemone gets excited and starts

to read the book, but Kenishi tells her to read the spells once she is feeling better. Nima says that she will train Anemone for the adventures and they both head to the mountain. The next morning they finally reach the dungeon and Anemone expresses that she is ready for the battle. They head inside and finally reach the place where Konishi drilled the crystals. Realizing that the Spider showed up once they started drilling, Konishi starts the machine which causes all the others to cover their ears because of how loud its sound is. The spider shows up and

Kenishi summons the weapons. They use bug killer on the mouth of the spider before Anemone uses her fireball spell which hits the spider directly. The group starts celebrating as the spider retrieves back into its den as it is badly burnt. They all praise Anemone for Her skill and Kenishi thinks of how hard it must have been for Anemone. Naima says that they should go after the spider and Kenishi agrees as the thought of such a scary spider roaming around the woods at night gives them all a shiver. As they all head into the cave, they

find an opening of a huge cavern and Kenishi summons a big flashlight that lights up the entire cave. There they see the spider in a corner and quickly spray bugs repellent to poison The spider and Kenishi orders Anemone to throw the final blow. However, before she can, another spider emerges, which Nima identifies as a female spider. Because female spiders are much larger, the group gets scared by the size of this new spider, but they soon realize that this spider can't pass from the openings. Miley says that the male must go out to hunt for food

and bring it in for the female spider as she is too large. Kenishi says that they should run As the female would die on her own when the male spider won't be able to bring food for her. But the female spider is faster than them and blocks the opening so they can't escape. In that moment, Vel rushes toward the spider and scratches its eye, which gives the girls enough time to use the bug killer. After that, Anemone uses her fireball magic, but the spider manages to survive. Konishi wonders why the spider isn't attacking them, and

Naima comments that Maybe the spider wants them to rot by blocking their way. Konishi captures the male spider in his item box. While the girls continue to spray poison on the female spider, Kenishi becomes angry as there is no other exit and the female spider won't die no matter what. So, he summons a huge excavator. The girls are shocked that he can summon such a big machine and Anemone goes with Kenishi to use it to move the spider. However, the spider manages to get a hold of the Machine, but Kenishi uses a shovel attack to

push it away. The spider gets pushed away, but the spider still manages to stand up again. So, Kenishi uses another attack to hit the top of the spider with the crane lift. However, the engine of the machine stops working and the spider starts crawling up the machine. Konishi desperately tries to start the engine, but once he looks to the other side, he finds Anemone using another type of magic spell and she uses The spell explosion which makes the spider fly into the wall. The spider becomes really weak and the machine finally starts again. So Kenishi

lands the final blow which finally kills the spider. Later, Kenishi stores the machine and the female spider as well before going to mine the crystals in the cave. He reflects on how he managed to waste a lot of money on the machine he bought. However, suddenly he comes across a raw crystal that is very Expensive and compensates for the money he wasted. Once they get out of the cave, Kenishi asks Anemone when she learned the explosion magic, and she reveals that it was her first time trying that magic. Back at home, Kenishi summons the female

spider to show it to Primula, who screams loudly in shock. Kenishi then puts the spider's egg on the table and tells the girls that he is going to eat it. The girls are disgusted by the idea, and Kenishi thinks of how He doesn't want to eat it, but wants to see how it tastes. He talks about how the best form of egg is steamed custard egg and prepares the spider's egg that way. He tells them that he won't force anyone to eat it, but it looks so good that everyone enjoys it happily. They find it

so delicious that they wonder if there is meat or cheese inside the egg. During this conversation, Konishi mentions that it is easy to make cheese and primula. Excitedly says that she Wants to learn how to make it. He explains that first the milk is curdled by adding apple cider vinegar to it and all the liquid is squeezed out using a soft cloth. The material that is left behind is called cottage cheese. Everyone enjoys the cheese and Primula says that she wants him to teach Kenon how to make cheese. Kenishi says that he dislikes mixing with

nobles and Primula gets a flashback of Thog, a corrupt merchant destroying the reputation of The Corolla restaurants of her family. Primula had decided to not tell Kenishi about the issue, but now has no choice but to tell Kenishi and explains that she wants to deal with the dishonest merchant by having the nobility on her side. Konishi says that she doesn't need any help from nobles as he and the girls will easily destroy the merchant. However, Primula says that she is aware she will have to use the help of their power soon, but for now, she

wants to Deal with things without fighting. Kenishi decides to teach her how to make cheese so she can teach Canon. A few days later, Thog gets a letter from the Vic count saying that anyone who harasses the Corolla restaurants will be punished heavily. The Corolla restaurant opens again and a few days later, Kenan visits them and tells Kenishi she knows that he is the one who helped in Dalia's fight by summoning iron monsters. However, Konishi pretends not to know What she is saying, but she tells him that she has done her research before coming here

and surprisingly bows down. Konishi doesn't feel good about the nobility bowing to him and fears that she might make an outrageous request as she begins to ask for his help. A sense of dread washes over him. He has a bad feeling about this. Kenan was assigned the task of constructing a canal through the kingdom, but she has fallen behind schedule. If the project isn't finished Soon, she risks losing her funding, and there's even a chance her land could be taken away. The final section of the canal that still needs to be built spans 10 mi,

and she has just one month to complete it. Desperate, she pleads with Kenishi for assistance, offering him any reward he desires, even herself. However, Kenishi declines, making it clear that he's not interested in that, Kenon feels disappointed after being rejected, but she still has one last Thing to offer. She then tells Kenishi that she can reward him with a special grimoire, high protection. Kenishi isn't exactly sure what high protection is, but Naima has heard of it before. She explains that high protection is an incredibly powerful spell capable of blocking any attack, even something as devastating

as a dragon's breath that immediately catches Kenisha's attention. As it could be useful in protecting Anemone, he decides to help Kenon, but Before any construction work can start, he needs to secure funding. Kenishi requests Canon to provide him with any unused furniture she has so he can evaluate it and earn money through his system. Once he finishes all of that, Kenishi ends up making around 120 million yen, which should be more than sufficient to cover the expenses of using his heavy machinery. Now he's all set to start. Everyone hops into Kenisha's car and he drives

them to the Construction site. During the ride, Kenon asks Kenishi if he's truly not interested in her body as a reward. Kenishi firmly responds, "No, I'm good." This, however, upsets Canon because she's aware that he has no issue being intimate with beast women, so why is he refusing her? They finally reach the construction site, and Kenishi happens to bump into Miley's brothers, Naoro, Naomero, and Nangji. It's great to see them again, but Kenishi wonders why They're out here working in construction. After all, they got a huge sum of money from the payout for killing Shaga,

which should have kept them comfortable for a long time. But things unfolded in a way that led them to spend it all. Eventually, they found themselves broke once more. Out of nowhere, Naima shows up to see what's happening. And the moment Miley's brothers lay eyes on her, they practically fall head over heels. But Setting that aside, Kenan proceeds to introduce Kenishi to the supervisor she hired to check on the construction. The supervisor remarks that she didn't have to come all the way out here in person, but Kenon insists it's necessary because she brought someone to

assist. She explains that Kenishi will significantly accelerate the process since he's a mage. But Kenishi quickly corrects her, stating that he's just a merchant. Regardless, the supervisor has no reason To turn down extra help. So, he chooses to carry on with his work and asks Kanan to review the bill for the equipment she'll need. As Kenan goes over it, Primula glances at it as well and is immediately appalled by the outrageous prices. She then asks Kenon to let her take care of reviewing the bill. And after carefully reading through the entire thing, she becomes certain

that this merchant is attempting to scam her. The man argues that he needs to make a Profit from the deal and points out that there aren't any other merchants Kenan can order 200 axes from. However, he's mistaken about that last part because Primula simply turns to Kenishi and asks if he can get 200 axes. Kenishi purchases the axes from his store and shows one to Kenan, asking if it will work. She confirms that it's perfect, but wonders how much he plans to charge for them. Primla mentions that she only needs to pay one silver coin

per axe. It's an incredibly low price, so Kenon asks Kenishi if he's truly okay with it. He responds by saying she can consider it a friend discount. Kenon is thrilled to hear this and decides she'll buy from Kenishi instead. The shady merchant becomes furious and warns her that he's representing the Thogalum trading company, so going against them could have serious consequences for her. Kenishi remembers that Thog was the one responsible for all the trouble with Primula stall. And it turns out he's so influential that even the lord seeks his assistance from time to time. This

means that making an enemy out of him could lead to serious problems. However, the priority right now is completing the canal. So, without wasting any more time, everyone gets straight to work. Since his backho will be in constant use, Kenishi is going to need a large supply of fuel. He pours out three vats of it. And after a few minutes, they Finally get started. Kenisha's machine proves to be an enormous advantage, as it can accomplish in mere minutes what would normally take them hours to complete. After a full day of work, Kenishi cooks a meal

for his friends and offers some to Kanan as well. She's taken aback by how he can prepare such good food even while being in the middle of the forest, and she finds it incredibly delicious, too. Kenishi notices the beast folks watching the Food from a distance. So, he calls them over and invites them to join in and eat with him. But, they aren't the only ones feeling hungry. Nearly all the workers are starving since the tavern they usually visit is in the city, making the trip far too costly for them. Seeing their situation, Primula feels

bad and comes up with an idea, she asks Kenishi for permission to use his recipe to cook for all the workers. Of course, she still plans to charge them, but at a Fair price that everyone can afford. overjoyed to finally have a meal. The workers eagerly dig in, turning the work site into what feels like a lively celebration, much to Kenan's delight. Later that night, Kenishi sets up a bath and lets Kenan know she can use it to freshen up. She's astonished that he managed to create a bath in the middle of the woods. Just

as Kenishi is about to leave, she suddenly grabs his arm and demands that he bathe with her. Kenishi Does his best to resist because technically he's married to Primula. He also has to look after Anemone, so he can't just give in to temptation whenever he wants. Kenan, however, finds it admirable how much Kenishi values his family, especially since, in her case, her own family barely even acknowledged her existence. All her parents ever seemed to care about was who Kenan would eventually marry. Kamishi remarks that it sounds sad, but since it has nothing To do with

him, he decides to leave the bathroom before Kenan has another chance to try and seduce him. The following morning, Kenishi wakes up early and the first thing he notices is Kenon diligently distributing food to all the workers. For a brief moment, he considers that maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea to bath with her at least once. However, as soon as that thought crosses his mind, all the girls close in on him, instantly sensing what he's Thinking. Kenishi quickly clarifies that he wouldn't actually sleep with Kenan, as she's a married woman, and he's wise

enough to steer clear of that kind of drama. Kenon is well aware that Kenishi doesn't want to fall for her, but with a whole month ahead of them, she's confident that sooner or later she'll make him give in. Moments later, a woman arrives at the work site to complain. Upset that none of the workers have been visiting the tavern she runs to eat. Primula explains that this is because she started selling food to them at a much more affordable price, meaning the workers no longer need to go to their tavern. She makes it clear that

they didn't lose their customers because she stole them, but rather because they were overcharging. If they have any hopes of recovering their business, they need to start being more honest with their pricing. After that, work carries on as usual, and once the trees have been cut Down, Kenishi drives by in his backho to collect all the wood and debris for storage. They are making steady progress on the canal, and by midday, Kenon's servants finally arrive, significantly increasing the number of people on site. With more workers present, water is starting to become a bit of a

concern. While he could purchase it from his store, that would be far too costly. So instead, he opts to strike a deal with the beast folks. They inform him about a Nearby spring, but reaching it is nearly impossible unless you have the agility of a cat. So Kenishi proposes a deal. He'll give them alcohol in exchange for fetching water since the beast folks have a strong love for alcohol. They eagerly agree and before long Kenisha's water supply problem is completely taken care of. While the beast folks are busy enjoying their drinks, Kenishi announces that he's

heading to bed. However, before he can leave, a very drunk Kenan Wraps her arm around him and starts dragging him off to the bedroom. After a short while, Kenan drifts off to sleep. So Kenishi quietly leaves the guest room and tries to make his way back into the main house. However, Anemone blocks his path, fully aware of what he just did and refusing to let him in. In the end, the canal is successfully completed within the 1-month deadline and is officially inaugurated during a grand ceremony attended by the royal family. Kenishi had every intention of

skipping the event, but Canon ultimately pressured him into showing up anyway. During the ceremony, Conan unexpectedly calls on Konishi to showcase the unique magic that enabled this project to happen. Konishi has no option but to comply, so he decides to embrace the moment and summons his backho to give a small demonstration for everyone present. The crowd is left in awe as Kenishi skillfully balances a log on the Edge of the backho and it's truly impressive. Once the ceremony concludes, Viccount Thurberg approaches Conan, completely stunned that the mage who defeated Shaga is actually in Astranchia. He

had been convinced that Kanan would lose her land and be forced to flee the country. But instead, she laughs right in his face, telling him that his joke is almost as amusing as his pathetic existence. Kenishi watches the exchange and assumes it's just a Typical rivalry between nobles. But Primula picks up on something more concerning. Inside Thurberg's carriage, there's an old man, someone she instantly recognizes. He's the same man who was stripped of his status in Dia after it was revealed that he had been the one who hired Shaga to kidnap her. The following day,

Kenishi has a meeting with Graham, Conan's husband, who wants to personally express his gratitude for all the help Kenishi provided in Finishing the project. Up until now, he hadn't put much effort into managing his territory. But after almost losing it due to the deadline, he's determined to change his ways. Additionally, there's something else he needs to discuss with Kenishi. He recently came across one of the picture books Konishi sold some time ago and is eager to learn how Kenishi created them. Kenishi goes on to demonstrate the entire printing process to Graham, who listens intently, Absorbing

every detail with excitement. Once Kinishi finishes explaining how the pictures are made, they return to their conversation where Graham expresses his desire to hire Primula to oversee Ostranch's finances. While Primula appreciates the opportunity, she realizes it would be too much for her to manage alone, so she asks Graham if she can seek her father's assistance. Graham is familiar with Malow from the Malow Trading Company, knowing he's a Significant figure over in Dia. So, he'd be more than pleased to have such a skilled merchant collaborating with him. However, he's uncertain if it's a wise move, as

forming ties with one of Dia's most influential merchants might push Thog to take action. Kenishi has been hearing a lot about Thogalum lately, so he questions why Graham doesn't simply expel Thog from Astranchia, given that he clearly has no fondness for him. Graham feels a bit embarrassed to Confess this, but given Astrancha's current financial situation, they can't afford to maintain a night order. So, if it ever came to a fight against Thog and his forces, it's almost certain they'd be defeated. However, Kenon reassures her husband that they actually have a solid chance of winning because

they have Kenishi and his magical machine. She's confident Kenishi would be willing to fight for them after all. She's like a friend for him now. Konishi isn't too Thrilled about constantly getting dragged into troublesome situations, but given how serious things are, he agrees to help fight Thog if it ever comes to that. Later that night, Kenishi and the others return to their usual spot, and he restores their house to its original place. They also received the high protection grimoire that Kenon had promised, meaning Anemone will soon be able to start learning the spell. But for

now, everyone unwinds by taking a Bath under the stars. In the meantime, over in the royal palace, Princess Lilith decides to visit her mother while she's at work after hearing that something had happened. The queen informs her that Vic Count surprisingly managed to finish building a canal before the deadline. It's kind of amusing considering that up until now, she'd been constantly receiving letters from Thunderja urging her to strip Viccount Astranche of both his land and His title for supposed incompetence. Clearly, Thunderja just wanted to seize Astranche for himself. But if the Vic count had actually

failed in his duties, the queen would have been forced to follow through. Fortunately, a highly skilled man showed up and helped him complete the construction in record time. The man they're referring to is none other than our guy Kenishi, who already has an impressive list of accomplishments to his name. So, the Princess considers that it might be appropriate to grant him the title of sacred knight eventually. Meanwhile, Kenishi is still relaxing in the bath with everyone when Naima brings up how incredible it is that Anemone can wield such extraordinary magic. Konishi speculates that Anemone likely

inherited her magical abilities from her mother. So, he decides to ask Anemone if she knows anything about her mom. Anemone responds that her mother was the one who Gave her her name, but beyond that, she doesn't have much information to share. The following day, Kenishi brings Anemone to the magic shop so she can have her new high protection grimoire officially registered. As soon as that's taken care of, Anemone heads straight to a corner and begins reading her new grimoire right away. While she's absorbed in that, Kenishi takes the opportunity to ask Granny if she knows

anything about a woman who died on the Street around 10 years ago. He's hoping to uncover some clues about who Anemone's mother might have been since she was likely a powerful mage of some kind. Granny isn't certain whether this has any direct connection to Anemone, but she does remember hearing about a renowned mage called the silver Armia who disappeared about 10 years ago. And as it happens, the high protection grimoire that Anemone just received once belonged to Armria. So, Kenishi is Beginning to suspect there could be some kind of link between the two. A short

later, as they make their way home, Anemone suddenly feels compelled to try out the grimoire. So, she kneels down and begins casting the high protection spell. She's doing pretty well for her very first attempt. But just as the protective barrier is starting to form, it completely falls apart. Right after that, Anemone curls up on the ground in pain, and Kenishi assumes it must be Because the spell backfired. However, Miley tells Kenishi that Anemone smells like a woman now, meaning she's actually just experiencing her first period. A few hours after the painkillers have taken effect, Anemone

is happy that her tummy pain has disappeared. The following day, Kenishi spots a carriage making its way toward his house. And to his surprise, the one on the carriage is Primula's father, Malow. In any case, he's here not only to see Primula, but Also to talk about the steps they plan to take to eliminate Thog. But before they get to that, Kenishi has something important he wants to discuss with Malow. He's been referring to Primula as his wife for some time now, but he never officially asked for her hand in marriage, so now he wants

to make it official. Primula has been living with Kenishi for several months. Yet, she's still deeply moved by the gesture, and Malo couldn't possibly hoped for a Better son-in-law. That night, a grand feast is held to celebrate the official marriage of Kenishi and Primula. As for the plans to deal with Fog Gallum, they've decided to form a company with the goal of driving him out of the market entirely. The following day, yet another carriage arrives at Kenisha's place. This time, it's Norseball who has come in search of Primula, but he's heartbroken to find out that

she's already married to Kenishi. Essentially, After Norse proposed to her some time ago, Primula left him and vanished from the country. He came hoping she might have changed her mind about the marriage, but out of respect for Kenishi, he decides not to pursue it any further. Meanwhile, over in town, Thog eventually catches wind that Malow is setting up shop in Astranchia, and he realizes this spells trouble for his business. Later that same day, Kenishi and the whole group arrive at the market Alongside Viccount Kenan. Kenon is currently trying to persuade her husband to construct a

road leading to Kenisha's house so she can visit more often, but Kenishi tells her it would be a waste of funds for the time being. He asks her to stay in the carriage with Malow and Primula while he and the others take care of the Thogalum crew. Kenishi then makes his way over to one of Fogllum's shops where an attendant quickly approaches to offer assistance. Without Wasting time, Kenishi summons the giant spider corpse right in the center of the store. The noise and chaos soon catch Thog's attention, prompting him to come out with several armed

men to handle the situation. As soon as Kenishi spots him, he introduces himself as a mage and declares that he's there to settle the score for all the trouble Thog caused Primula. But Thog doesn't see Kenishi as a threat. So, he commands his men to attack. However, they're reluctant to go Up against Kenishi. And for good reason, considering the guy just casually summoned a giant spider corpse, Thog eventually manages to persuade his men that Kenishi probably just stumbled upon the spider's body in the forest and is using it to bluff his way out of a

fight. But Kenishi didn't show up alone. He rolled in with the entire squad by his side, and Norse is more than ready to stab his sword straight up in the enemy's ass. Thogallum quickly realizes That things are going to be a bit more challenging than he had originally expected. Though he remains confident as his men still vastly outnumber Kenishha's allies. But suddenly Vel enters the fry and because bobcats are regarded as the divine messengers of the cat people's god. None of the cat people are willing to fight anymore. They immediately lay down their weapons and

walk away. With his numbers advantage now gone, Thog withdraws into his Hideout to escape. Kinishi and the others follow him inside. But it turns out that this was actually part of Thogan's strategy as he had even more troops waiting within. And these ones are dog people, so they have no issue throwing hands with Holy Cat. The dog people's leader leaps down to strike at Kenishi, but Norball steps in just in time to protect him, sparking a full-on battle. Naima and Miley charge in with their weapons. And since they harbor a Deep hatred for the dogs,

they're highly driven to go for the kill. Meanwhile, Norse is still locked in combat with the thugs leader, but he's caught off guard when a dagger is hurled at him. Fortunately, Vel comes to his rescue, allowing him to regain his footing and charge back into the fight, slicing the dog man in half. Kishi then pulls out his backho and starts wreaking havoc throughout Thog's complex, causing as much destruction as possible and likely Taking out a few people in the process as well. Thog sees that he's on the losing side, so he attempts to escape his

hideout, but Kenishi chases after him and calls in an even larger machine to wipe out the entire building once and for all. However, Malow steps in and tells him to hold off because he's planning to move in once the Malow company sets up in the town. Kenishi agrees to stand down, but then Foggelum starts shouting that Kenishi won't get Away with any of this. However, Kenishi counters by explaining that they've already succeeded in their plan. Because while Kenishi might have initiated the fight, it was Thog's men who were the first to unshed their swords. Coincidentally,

Kenishi was tasked with escorting the Vic Count today, which means any attack on him could be interpreted as an attempt on the Vic Count's life. Of course, this is entirely fabricated, but Kenishi has the Vic Count's support, and all it would take is a single word from him to have Thogalum imprisoned for attempted murder. Now, Thog has no choice but to comply with the Vic Count's demands. So, he instructs him to leave Astranchia at once and never come back. As Thog gathers the few belongings he's permitted to take, he steps into the carriage with his

family, and he's honorable enough to acknowledge his defeat. However, he believes he only Lost because they had Kenishi on their side. He also realizes that all of Malow's recent achievements selling those rare brutes in Dalia must have been thanks to Kenishi as well. With that, he congratulates him on securing such a valuable partner. But he reminds him that he still has enemies out there, like the one who paid to kidnap Primula. So, he had better watch his back. And this won't be the last time they hear of Thog. Right at that moment, a carriage Pulls

up and it's there to deliver a letter addressed to the Viccount. The message comes straight from the royal palace, ordering the Vic Count to send Kenishi to the royal capital as soon as possible for an audience with the king. Since it's a royal decree, they don't have the authority to turn down the summons. But no one has any clue why the royal family would be interested in meeting with Kenishi. Fogallum, having overheard everything, bursts into Maniacal laughter and tells Kenishi that making himself stand out so much was inevitably going to bring trouble his way sooner

or later. As Thogum rides off, Kenishi starts reflecting on what he said about Primula being kidnapped. And now that he's really thinking it over what could have been the motive behind it, it was clear that Shaga carried out the kidnapping because a noble paid him. And at first, Kenishi assumed it was just some noble who had Fallen for Primula or something along those lines. But maybe there's more to it than that. Thunderja might have used his influence to help sweep things under the rug. But there's a chance the Spice Syndicate had a hand in the

kidnapping. They were likely trying to undermine Malow's company out of jealousy over all the success he was having selling Kenisha's products. And if that really is how it all went down, then that would mean Kenishi bears some of the Responsibility for Primula being kidnapped in the first place. That evening, Kenishi sits down with Primula and Malow for a conversation and informs them that he wants to pause selling goods to them for the time being. He lays out his entire theory that Malo is being targeted specifically because he has access to exclusive products and Kenishi doesn't

want to be the source of any further trouble for him. Additionally, with Kenishi being Summoned by the king, he has no way of knowing what kind of challenges he might face. So, he'd prefer not to drag Malow's company into any potential complications. However, Primula points out to Kenishi that he's mistaken about one thing. He isn't the one causing trouble for them. It's simply the risk that comes with running a profitable business. Kenishi counters by reminding her that she almost lost her life because of those very risks. But Primula Is prepared to accept that. She's already

resolved to stand by Kenisha's side. And given the power he wields, it was inevitable that the royal family would eventually take notice of him. No matter what happens, she wants to keep supporting him through it all. The following day, Crouton's family is finally prepared to relocate to Norse Ball's lands. So, Anemone bids farewell to Mary as the carriage sets off. Once that's done, Kinishi gathers all of his Belongings. Initially, he considered ignoring the royal summons and fleeing. But doing so would create a mountain of problems for the Vic count. In the end, he decides to

make his way to the royal capital in his vehicle accompanied by his family. Soon, the group reaches the royal capital. And while it looks quite beautiful, the roads are also incredibly confusing, causing Kenishi to get lost along the way. Eventually, he happens upon a group of castle guards. So, he Presents them with the letter he received from the king. After roughly an hour, the guards come back bringing the princess with them. She's thrilled to finally meet the renowned Kenishi. But since it's only been around 2 weeks since they sent the letter to him, they're all

surprised that he managed to arrive so fast. The princess's advisers request that he explain how he arrived. So, Kenishi tells them he simply drove here on his mechanical beast. After Hearing this, the princess immediately starts insisting that he show it to her. Kenishi obliges and summons his jeep. It appears even more impressive than the princess had imagined. So, she excitedly asks Kenishi to take her for a ride. He agrees, but cautions her that she shouldn't so recklessly get into an unfamiliar vehicle. What would she do if he decided to kidnap her while she was inside?

Surprisingly, the princess finds that idea amusing and tells him he can Go ahead and kidnap her if he wants to. Still, Kenishi has no intention of becoming a wanted criminal, so he simply drives her back to the castle gates. Once the princess steps out of the car, her advisers immediately begin scolding her for riding in an unfamiliar magical beast like that. If anything had happened to her, the king would have all of them executed. So, they plead with her to act more carefully. But the princess just tells them that if they Don't like how she

acts, they're free to quit. Lilith has taken quite a liking to Kenishi, so she tells him he can call her by her first name, and since he's been such great company, offers him any reward he'd like. After a moment of thought, Kenishi asks if she'd allow him to set up camp on a small part of the garden grounds. Lilith finds this request a little odd. After all, he could simply stay in the castle's guest quarters, but he explains that he has Beast folk in his family, and most places don't allow beast folk inside. So, he

wants to camp outside where they can all stay together. Understanding his reasoning, the princess agrees to let him stay in the garden. Since Kenishi showed up ahead of schedule, it might be a few months before the king is available to meet with him. Konishi and the group are taken to a section of the garden that they'll be using. And as soon as he summons his house, Lilith Gets excited and rushes inside to explore it. Kenishi follows her in and tries to talk her into coming back out, but Lilith has already made up her mind. She

says she wants to stay here now. Her advisers argue that she's taking things too far. And Konishi even asks if she's really certain about this, reminding her that he doesn't have much to offer in terms of hospitality. But Lilith says she's perfectly fine just being able to stay there. She doesn't need anything Else from him. If Lilith truly wants to stay, Kenishi sees no reason to stop her. So, he goes on with setting up the house and adds the second room. The only thing left now is to build a bathroom. So, Kenishi summons his bulldozer

and gets ready to start digging. But suddenly, Lilith climbs in and sits on his lap. She's heard a lot about this machine and wants to see how it works firsthand. Kenishi doesn't see any reason to say no, so he operates the Bulldozer like usual, and once the job is finished, he gently lifts the princess out of it. No sooner does the princess step out than her knight suddenly draws his sword, shouting at Kenishi for having the audacity to treat the princess with such casual familiarity. Without hesitation, the knight lunges forward, making it clear he fully

intends to kill Kenishi. Reacting quickly, Kenishi conjures a shield to deflect the strike and pulls Out a crossbow to counterattack. The knight leaps backward to dodge the shot, but Anemone isn't about to let him escape unscathed. After assaulting Kinishi, she hurls a fireball straight at him. Just in time, the royal mage intervenes, blocking the flames, but Anemone is already winding up for another attack. However, before things escalate further, Lilith quickly steps between them and demands they stop fighting. She's genuinely impressed that Anemone can wield magic at such a young age, so she introduces herself properly

and asks what other spells Anemone knows. Anemone casually mentions she can also cast explosion magic, a revelation that carries serious weight. Because if she had used that earlier, those two would already be dead. Later that evening, Kenishi begins making dinner, and both the princess and her maids are drawn in by how amazing it smells. However, she's unfamiliar with a white Grain and asks what it's called. Konishi tells her it's called rice and offers to get her some bread instead if she's not comfortable trying it, but she says she'd be more than happy to have some

rice. When the meal is ready, Kenishi serves her a plate of rice with curry, and she's instantly hooked. She asks if it's common for ordinary people to eat food this delicious since she's never tasted anything like it before. But Kenishi explains that it's nearly Impossible for everyday people to get access to spices since the spice syndicate keeps driving up the prices. Lilith is already familiar with the syndicate as they've been a constant pain on the ass for quite some time. She asks Kenishi if he can tell her which spices were used in the dish, but

he admits he doesn't know. He tells her he didn't make it himself, but he can give her a can of the spice mix so she can try to recreate it later. The princess Takes that as a fun challenge and is more than eager to try and figure out the blend. Meanwhile, Lilith has grown quite fond of the spoon and plate Kenishi let her use for her meal. So, she asks if she can purchase them. Kenishi agrees, but first needs to check with Primula. He explains that normally he'd sell the plate for 20 gold and the

spoon for 10 gold, but since it's the princess making the purchase, he could probably charge 20 gold for each. He Tells Lilith the total will be 40 gold for one plate and one spoon. Surprisingly, Lilith thinks that's a fair price and enthusiastically says she wants to buy them. Kenishi cheerfully hands over the dinner wear and Lilith is slightly takenback. She hadn't fully believed him when he claimed to be a merchant. Now convinced, she leans in with a mischievous grin and asks if he deals in anything less than legal. Kenishi neither confirms nor denies it, But

he doesn't outright agree to sell her anything either. Meanwhile, during their conversation, Anemone has been growing more and more irritated by how chummy Konishi and Lilith are getting. Unable to hold back any longer, she wedges herself firmly between the two of them. Lilith is confused by Anemone's jealousy after all. She had assumed Anemone was Kenisha's actual daughter. While it's true that Kenishi sees Anemone as his child in every way that Matters, the two aren't biologically related. Later that night, Kenishi allows Lilith to take a bath while he keeps his distance. Not willing to risk getting

dragged into another frightening situation. He's also not comfortable with the idea of sleeping in the same room as the princess, so he decides to have Primula and Anemone stay with Lilith while he sets up camp outside with Naima and Miley. However, during the night, both Naima and Miley suddenly Rise, having sensed something unusual coming from the castle. The following morning, Kenishi wakes up bright and early, and just a few minutes later, Lilith wakes up, too. She immediately calls for her maids to come and help her get dressed so she can start her day. In the

days that followed, Lilith continued to ask Kenishi for various favors, one of which was to deal with the castle's rat problem. So, Kenishi ventured down into the tunnels, armed with a massive Supply of rat poison, and ended up killing over a thousand rats in one go. On a different day, Lilith arranged an auction for the giant spider corpse stored in Kenisha's item box. And later, she asked Kenishi to pretend to kidnap her just to see if he could actually pull it off. So, Kenishi picked her up and climbed the castle walls, proving that he could

easily escape with Lilith if he ever chose to. The following day, Lilith decided she wanted to treat Kenishi to something special. So, she had her royal chefs prepare a curry dish for him. Despite its unusual green color, the flavor was excellent, prompting Kenishi to praise the chefs for their impressive recreation of the curry spices. Suddenly, Lilith posed a question. Did Kenishi have any exotic foods in his item box that her palace cooks couldn't possibly replicate? Taking this as a personal challenge, Kenishi immediately produced an ornate Box of premium chocolates from his inventory. The princess tries

a piece and is amazed by how sweet it is. So she gives a piece to her head chef Sambach and asks him if he would be able to recreate it. After tasting the chocolate, Sambach admits that he could never create something like this with his current skill level. The following day, Lilith heads out to visit Kenishi the moment her royal obligations are finished. During dinner, Nima and Miley Suddenly mention sensing that strange presence again. The maids all appear visibly unsettled, prompting Lilith to clarify that there have long been rumors about the castle being haunted. Given

how many lives have been lost defending the royal family, and considering how many of those fallen likely died with unresolved bitterness, it's hardly surprising that at least a few vengeful spirits might linger within these walls. At this stage, the maids are completely Terrified of the ghosts. So, they ask Lilith to request Kenishi to take care of the situation. Lilith herself isn't particularly concerned about the ghosts, but because her maids are so unsettled, she decides to ask Kenishi if he knows how to get rid of one. Kenishi agrees, but only under the condition that Na, Miley,

and his bobcat are allowed inside the castle since they're the only ones capable of sensing the ghost. Lilith accepts his terms, but even then, Kenishi still has no clue how he's supposed to fight a ghost to begin with. After doing a bit of searching, Kenishi buys a sprayer and fills it with holy water. As they walk through the halls, Naima and Miley point in a corner and tell Kenishi that they can sense something coming from over there. So, he sprays the area with holy water and they tell him the ghost is gone. Now that this

area has been dealt with, Lilith takes Kenishi over to the maid's Quarters since they claim there's a ghost lingering there as well. Once Naima and Miley point out the exact spot where the ghost is, Kenishi sprays it. And the moment he does, all the maids say they no longer feel the ghost's presence. Kenishi isn't entirely convinced whether he's actually banishing ghosts or if it's just a placebo effect, but he continues moving through the castle, spraying holy water anywhere the girls direct him to. The Last location is the queen's bedroom, as she's been saying she hasn't

been sleeping well. Kenishi feels a little uneasy about being in the queen's private quarters, but since Lilith assures him it's all right, he proceeds with the exorcism. Vel keeps staring at a vase on the desk nearby, so Kenishi picks it up and attempts to spray it, but nothing happens. He then suggests to Lilith that the queen might want to remove this vase since he can't seem to Expel the spirit from it. Lilith expresses her gratitude to Kenishi for his assistance, and as a reward, gives him and Anemone permission to browse any of the magical books

in the library, though they're strictly prohibited from taking any books outside. Konishi has no plans to steal them. Instead, he'll make copies of each one, so he pulls out a photocopier and begins scanning every page of the books to study later. After 4 hours, they've successfully copied Around 35 books. As it's getting late, Konishi and Anemone finally leave the library. But as soon as they step outside, they find a maid waiting for them. Her responsibility is to ensure that none of the books being extremely valuable have been stolen. So, she begins inspecting every shelf. After

confirming that all the books are still in place, she allows Kenishi and Anemone to go on their way. Later that night, Kenishi is summoned to a private room With the princess and one of her maids. The princess tells him she wants to reward him and that he's free to do whatever he wants with me. At first, Kenishi turns her down, explaining that he already has a wife, but Lilith quickly reminds him that no one ever has to find out. With that, Kenishi gives in, not even minding that Lilith is sitting there watching as he claps

her personal maid. They all arrive at the royal court where the audience looks Down upon them as they believe Kenishi doesn't look like a mage. They also think the king is being too soft because he allowed the beast folk and animals to enter the audience chamber. Kenishi observes the royal family and he senses hostility from the queen. He introduces himself as a mage from the frontier and he informs them that he has arrived there because he was summoned by the king. The royal servant informs him that the majesty wants to see his fighting Skills. So

he must fight the royal court's rising star mage named Melissa. Kenishi finally realizes why the king had gathered so many nobles in the court. And Melissa tells him that she only agreed to fight him because she was told her opponent is an impressive mage from the frontier. But she is surprised since he looks quite ordinary and she feels he is stupid because he even brought his family. She advises him to run away and she brings out a lesser Dragon which shocks everyone. But Kenishi summons a giant excavator surprising her. She believes it's only bigger in

size and it won't be able to compete with her dragon. Kenishi enters his excavator and she prepares to attack him with her dragon, which worries Lilith, but he easily dodges the attack. However, it eliminates several spectators, but shockingly, no one seems to be bothered about it, which makes Kenishi wonder what's wrong with them. Naima and Miley offer to help Kenishi, and they start attacking the dragon, but they fail to land any real damage on him. Kenishi uses this opportunity to grab and slam the dragon, but he realizes it wasn't enough to finish it. So, Anemone

tells him to leave it to her. She uses her magic to attack it. But unfortunately, this doesn't work either. The dragon hits the excavator with its tail, which sends it back, and Kenishi loses control over the machine, Opening it to all sorts of attacks. The dragon tries to burn them, but luckily Anemone casts a high protection magic, which saves them, impressing everyone. Naima and Miley once again attack it and this time Naima manages to hit an arrow in its eyes which blocks its vision. So it starts launching fire attacks in all directions placing everyone in

danger. It rushes towards the excavator and uses its brute force to push it back which makes everyone think that the fight is Practically over and Melissa will easily win it. But Anemone once again surprises everyone as she starts preparing a golem using her magic. However, instead of creating a fully developed golem, she only creates a hand, which disappoints everyone. But shockingly, it still manages to grab the dragon and toss it like it weighs nothing. Kenishi knows it wasn't enough to defeat the dragon, but he still thinks it's enough opening for him to use his final

move. He starts Rotating the excavator, hitting the dragon multiple times before finishing it with a strong final blow, which defies all absurdity. Everyone is amazed at their victory and Kenishi thanks Anemone for the help, but he notices she's bleeding as she is exhausted from using all her mana. He takes out a loudspeaker and thanks his majesty for inviting him to such a wonderful show in the royal chamber. However, he is angry since it placed his family in danger. So, he says he will use his mighty summoned beast to collapse the entire audience chamber and escape.

After which, he will use all his energy to destroy this country. They think he is being overconfident after defeating just a lesser dragon and even Kenishi himself realizes he went a little too far in his range. Primula calls him from behind and he apologizes for overreacting as it places all of them in danger, but she reminds him that she will follow him no Matter what he decides. Naimna also tells him that the beast folk are naturally drawn to strong men and anemone also reminds him of his promise to go adventuring together. Kenishi feels grateful to

have all their support, but he mentions if they run away now, they will never know peace again, and also he fears the trouble it may cause for Malow and others. She assures him that neither she nor her father will blame him if anything Happens to her or the trading company. Princess Lilith suddenly comes down along with her guards and she says that she understands how he must be angry as his family was in danger. But if he runs away from there, he might be giving up on the peaceful life he seeks. for which even the

nobles will start hating him. She notes that she has a better idea to settle this problem and he wonders what that is. So she reveals that he can marry her but he quickly rejects her Proposal which breaks her heart as she thinks he could have at least given it a thought. He tells her that he can't be just another pawn in the royals games. So Lilith mentions that in that case she has a small request as a young girl which he should grant. Kenishi asks her what she wants. So she reveals that her birthday is

coming soon, so he should get her a present. She tells him that if she likes the gift, she will ask her father to forgive him and grant a Document that will declare that they have no grudges against him. He realizes she wants him to gift her something that no other noble can have. And she mentions that it will be almost impossible to surprise her with jewelry, but he considers it a challenge. So Kenishi starts thinking about what to give her. Primula tells him that all his products are wonderful due to the skill involved in making

them. But she is most surprised by how he can create things Which look exactly the same in size and shape. So she suggests he should give her a similar gift. Kenishi gives Lilith a beautiful pearl necklace which shocks her and he wonders if she has never seen a pearl necklace but she notes that she has seen one but not with such big beads that two in the same shape and color. She is very happy and shows it to her father. But the queen feels very jealous. Lilith hands him the document which notes that he's officially

Forgiven for all his mistakes and he thanks her. But he thinks that although this isn't the ideal scenario, he is happy they could achieve peace. The queen suddenly arrives there and he senses she is even more terrifying than that dragon he faced earlier. She asks him if he has anything for her, so he notes it was a present for Lilith's birthday. She mentions that her birthday is also arriving soon. So he remembers how Lilith told him that her mother can Prove to be a nightmare when she is mad. He apologizes to her and presents her

with a pearl necklace which makes her very happy. So she notes she can't accept such a gift for nothing. So she gives him the key to her bedroom. Kenishi wonders if all the nobles in their world believe that if they can't buy something with money, they can use their bodies. He notices the king isn't happy with it. And Lilith thinks the queen shouldn't joke with him and he Agrees with her. But the queen tells him to call her by her name just like he calls Lilith. He makes an excuse that it's because this is their

first meeting. So he asks her for her name and she tells him it's Amara. Konishi asks her if she has any old unused furniture in the palace and she says yes, but she wonders why he is asking this. So Kenishi reveals that he would prefer that over this key. They soon enter the royal storage room and Kenishi is Impressed as everything there is very valuable. But Lady Amara asks him to take a desk as it belonged to her when she was a child and it reminds her of those bad days which she wants to forget.

He takes the table and seeing how easily he did that. She jokingly asks if he can take her with him which Lilith finds crazy. Kenishi thinks that this is the real antique furniture used by the royal family and in his world it would have been stored in some museum. While walking they come across the vase and she mentions that thanks to him she is enjoying peaceful sleep. He is glad to hear it and asks if she is sure that it was responsible for her lack of sleep. So she reveals that when they questioned the noble

who gave it to her, he confessed that he knew it was cursed yet he gave it to her. Kenishi wonders why someone could do this. So she reveals it was obviously done to kill her. She tells him that the one who Wanted to kill her was part of the men whom the lesser dragon killed earlier during their fight. He wonders if she did it intentionally to take her revenge, but she tells him that it was just a coincidence that people were burned to death because of the dragon's fire breath. She tells him that the man

was part of the anti-royal faction which opposes their rule. And she adds that lately the actions of Thumba have caused great trouble. She notes that he is the Lowest rank of the anti-royal faction and she has heard he is conducting all sorts of schemes to take over his neighbor Astranchia such as sending his pawn merchant Thog. She tells him that the anti-royal faction also has numerous thugs and bandits as its pawns and in addition to Astranchia they have also been trying to take control of Dalia. She knows he is the one who defeated the bandits

hiding out in the old castle near Dalia. He is surprised by her Knowledge, but she notes that a good ruler must always be well informed. She tells him that because of that incident, they have managed to slow the anti-royal factions expansion. So, he has their gratitude, but he finds her very scary. Meanwhile, Melissa asks Anemone where she learned to use that high protection spell, and she reveals it was from a grimoire, which she believes belonged to someone named Arriia, which shocks Melissa. So, Anemone wonders if she knew Her. She mentions that she was a famous

witch and she asks Anemone about her mother but she does not know much about her and all she knows is that she is dead. Melissa reads the message written in the book and we learn that the grimoire was left to anemone by her mother. So Melissa tells her to treasure it as it's a momento. She leaves after telling them that she will return one day and she won't lose the next time they fight. After a few days, Kenishi Was rewarded with the land at a still lakefront. Since land had been granted to him, he could

no longer remain a commoner. So, the king bestowed upon him the title of baron, making him one of the nobles of the kingdom. He also purchased a van, as their group had grown larger after Lady Lilith threatened to leave the royal family if she wasn't allowed to accompany Kenishi. The king permitted her to go under the pretense that she would be monitoring Him. She explained that she couldn't risk allowing such a powerful mage to join the anti-royal faction, so she needed to keep an eye on him. Men also joined them as she serves as the

princess's attendant. Fu is surprised to see the van and when he learns that Kenishi has become a noble now, he apologizes for his earlier rudeness, but he tells him it's all right. Later that night, back at the house, everyone is sitting around the table enjoying Dinner. Lilith asks Kenishi if what they're eating is mayonnaise. Now that she mentions it, Kenishi suddenly remembers hearing a rumor about a mage in another empire who also invented mayonnaise. and he finds himself wondering when he'll finally meet that mayonnaise guy. That was it for this anime. Watch this next video
