Chapter 41 – I’m Just Telling You
There’s no way Madam’s words are lies.
“Are the heroes really from the same world?”
“It’s still a story of possibility. The future I saw only told me that he was from another world and didn’t show anything more.”
“… Is that so?”
Wouldn’t it be good if we were the same transferees because we could share the same concerns?
You may think so.
I would have done the same if I had simply heard that the warrior was a transference.
The problem is.
‘They said the landscape of the continent will change.’
It means that there will be enough chaos that the situation will become dizzy.
It meant that there might be cracks in the stable life of a convenience store manager.
If a situation arises where you need to subdue a hero to prevent it, being a transferr to another world will definitely be a hindrance.
As I gained the convenience store cheat ability, the hero will also gain an ability equivalent to or greater than that.
“What are you thinking like that?”
“I was thinking about maybe having to fight him.”
“Are you saying it could be a danger to the empire?”
“I don’t know. But if something happens that causes harm to my convenience store, shouldn’t I step forward with both hands?”
“Hehe, that’s just like you.”
After drinking tea, Madame smiled calmly.
“Don’t worry. Because the warrior does not directly shake up the game.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. “Nothing the store manager is worried about will happen.”
“Then that’s a good thing.”
I came to talk about Luna, but she ended up hearing more serious words.
“I’m exhausted.”
“Would you like to take a rest? Our lake has good facilities.”
“Isn’t the meaning of resting here a little different?”
“Hehe, of course.”
“I wouldn’t be able to stand anyway… That’s it.”
“Huh, that’s a shame. “I have a child who is a virgin.”
The fox mask was tilted.
Madame smiled slyly.
A new person came in?
“It’s done. “If there’s an atmosphere like this, there’s nothing left to do.”
Rooms that explicitly encourage sex.
The VVIP rooms, including Madame’s room, were full of old-fashioned decorations to accommodate nobles.
If you look closely at this place, it has an erotic atmosphere.
Most of the paintings on the wall are depictions of actual actions.
There were engraved pictures of people enjoying activities in strange postures.
The large mirror next to the bed was so transparent that all activities could be seen.
“You’re not even a virgin anymore. Stand up like a man.”
“What? Madam!”
“Just joke. Seeing such a strong reaction, I guess you really did it?”
“Hmm!”
“Who is your opponent? Are you Elena by any chance? Has love finally bloomed in the store manager as well?”
“No. Elena is like a daughter. It is difficult to have such feelings.”
“Hmm, is that so? The other person didn’t seem to think that way.”
“Yes?”
“No. Pretend you didn’t hear it. If not Elena then did she fuck with the princess when she went to the imperial palace? That child’s pure and pure love was exactly what I liked. From her audience’s point of view, she…
“Not her either.”
The golden eyes inside the fox mask twinkled at my answer.
“Then who is it?”
“Do I have to listen to it?”
“I hope the store manager also understands my position. “For me, who is bored with the daily routine, news of an acquaintance’s love life gives me new energy.”
“I can’t speak.”
“Are you really going to tell me the store manager’s future after seeing it for myself?”
Madame’s cheeks were swollen.
I didn’t want to say it, but if I didn’t say something, I was really going to see my future.
In fact, her fox mask sparkled.
A sign for her to gather strength to see her future poetry.
She glared at me cutely and placed her hands on her fox mask, trying to activate her future poetry.
“This is Lepis.”
She spoke honestly.
“… Lepis? That’s surprising. “I thought it would be either Elena or Chloe.”
“Why did you nominate these two people?”
“It’s just a feeling. Hehe.”
After hearing what I said, Madame nodded as if she was trying to gather her thoughts for a moment and then asked me.
“But is it really true?”
“What do you mean?”
“Was Lepis a virgin?”
“… That surprised me too.”
“It’s surprising. “She is a pervert woman, so I thought she had a lot of experience.”
Even Madame was surprised, so how surprised was I?
“But I didn’t know you would like it that way.”
“Yes?”
“I mean Lepis. Doesn’t she like to torment men?”
“I didn’t hear that.”
“Eh? That can’t be possible.”
“Don’t try to understand this crazy bitch with a normal human mind.”
Lepis was a woman who could not be understood.
“Let’s stop talking about Lepis and get back to the main topic. Hero.”
“Do you have any more questions?”
“If we go to the hero or the devil first and finish the job now, the game will change, right?”
“Hmm… Well. I don’t even know their location. “The contents of the trust are also ambiguous.”
“…”
“And the future seen in future time rarely changes. In fact, there are times when the actions you try to change bring about the future.”
It also happened in our world.
Aren’t the Greek oracles like that?
A case in which things done out of fear after receiving a trust ultimately lead to the future of the trust.
Madame is talking about that case.
“It’s not wrong.”
“It would be better to prepare for the future rather than fear it.”
“That is correct.”
I couldn’t deny it.
“Then did you tell this story to His Majesty the Emperor?”
Madame shook her head.
“Sometimes what you don’t know is helpful.”
“Then why did you tell me?”
“Because you are special.”
Underneath the fox mask, the corners of Madame’s exposed mouth rose.
She spoke with her warm smile.
“So only the store manager knows this fact. “Never say it.”
“… “I understand.”
When she came to check on Luna’s condition, she heard unexpected information.
“So, are you going back?”
“I guess so.”
The wolf mask is starting to get frustrating.
“Take care. “Don’t worry Luna.”
“Yes, then…” …”
I bowed my head to the store manager and left the store.
Countless lake customers pass by me on my way to the convenience store.
Even today, there were so many woodcutters who came to the lake to look for the fairy.
***
“Jeonjara…”
It’s not that I didn’t imagine that there would be people from my world besides me.
But there was no news for over 3 years, so I thought I was alone now.
‘How should I treat it?’
Let’s at least allow Koreans to use convenience stores.
Because that person would also like to eat Korean kimchi.
But why on earth did Madame have such sad eyes?
I couldn’t figure it out.
“It’s the store manager!!”
Elena, who was organizing inventory, called me.
“What’s going on?”
“Oh, it’s not like that. Do you have any concerns?”
Did it show off that much?
Elena is so worried.
“It’s nothing.”
Let’s not reveal it.
If I show that I am having a hard time, it will also affect my part-time workers.
“Oh, I guess that’s why.”
“That?”
“It’s almost festival time now. National Foundation Day Festival.”
“Ah.”
Has it already happened like that?
Empire Founding Day.
It was an anniversary commemorating the day the first emperor declared the empire in the capital Oscar.
Around August, when the summer momentum becomes strongest.
One of the biggest festivals in the empire, celebrating the beginning of the empire.
Many people take to the streets, and parades prepared by the royal family and numerous top officials fill the streets with the capital.
A very noisy day with fairy tales retelling the founding myth and plays taking place everywhere.
At the same time, it was also the peak time for our convenience store.
People flock to see the spectacle.
A stall selling street food that is good for hungry people to eat while walking.
But no matter how good the stall is.
‘It’s difficult to sell drinks with floating ice.’
That’s why there are so many customers.
It means there were a lot to begin with, but more are coming.
The week before and after National Foundation Day was considered to be extremely busy.
“Now that I think about it, it’s August.”
There are less than three weeks left until the anniversary.
“I think more people will come this year. Dmitry I think he will have to work during the day too.”
“Hmm, that’s difficult.”
“Yes?”
“He can only work at night.”
“Then should I ask Mr. Robinson again this year?”
“Hmm…”
At that time, a thought occurred to me.
‘Luna.’
I need to check.
Madame said it was okay, but she was very anxious and couldn’t do it.
I have to check with my own eyes whether she is really normal and whether she is possessed by Dmitry.
“I have someone else to ask for.”
“Oh yeah? Thank god. But just in case, I think it would be a good idea to gather a few more people.”
“The more, the better.”
The sales coming in at that time are much greater than the labor costs incurred due to additional recruitment.
Even if we use ten people, it’s not enough.
“Well, store manager…”
“Huh?”
Elena twisted her body and wriggled towards me.
“Perhaps. During National Foundation Day, we watched the parade together… Do you want to go?”
Watching the parade?
“Ah.”
During the three years she worked here, Elena could not really enjoy her National Day.
She was always busy with her work.
In the beginning, we couldn’t get used to each other, and in the second year, there was a huge increase in customers.
Last year, she also brought Robinson, but she didn’t have time to attend to all the guests.
I’ve never been there.
Me and her too.
Now that things are stable, there will be quite a few people who can help. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to give her own holiday on National Day.
“Do you want to rest for a day?”
“Is this really okay?”
“Okay.”
“So the store manager is also taking a break?”
“Well, if we’re going to go together, then that’s the way to go, right?”
“Hehe, I’m glad. “I thought I would be lonely if I went alone and wouldn’t be able to see the sights properly.”
“Did you miss me that much?”
“Sure! Oh, I wasn’t looking forward to going with the store manager. Well, I just thought I could watch the National Day parade…”
Her face turned red.
I smiled involuntarily at the reaction of a 20-year-old, fresh-faced girl.
“I’m excited too.”
“Um, store manager too?”
“I’m going with my favorite employee, so how can I not be excited?”
“Ah, dear…”
Elena fidgeted.
“Let’s have fun during National Foundation Day.”
“Joe, great! I really like it!”
Elena smiled brightly.
It was a flawless and clear smile.
By the way, if I ask Luna to work for me, she’ll agree, right?
Since I work at night, do I have to pay a weekly surcharge?
