The next morning, we had breakfast and decided to go out for a shopping trip immediately after .

  “”What first~?””
“Let’s go to the Adventurer’s Guild first . ”
“”Guild~””
“Cuckoo . ”
At the Adventurer’s Guild, I plan to get money by selling the materials I received from Oswald-san . Although I have enough money even without doing that, I’m thinking of not mixing that money with my own money .

  “Good morning . How may I help you?”
“”Good morning . ””
When we arrived at the guild’s reception desk, the receptionist lady greeted us with a smile . Then, Allen and Elena also returned the greetings with a smile of their own . Their shyness has completely softened~

  “We’d like to sell off materials . Oh, there’s a good amount . ”
I stated our business while handing over my guild card .

  “Understood . In that case, please place the items at the space over there . ”
“Okay, got it . ”
I put the materials to be sold on the counter-like large table indicated by the receptionist . By the way, I’m going to keep Lyra’s——Edenbird’s feather instead of selling it .

  “This is all . ”
“Wonderful . Please give me a minute to assess the value . ”
“Oh, I’d also like you to dismantle this for me separately……”
“Then, I will take care of it for you as well . ——!!”
The receptionist gulped as I placed the carcass of the Bloody Wolf, that is the souvenir for the Ruven family, on the counter to have it dismantled .

  “Bl, Bloody Wolf!? Where did you!?”
“Ah, we haven’t come across it around here, so no need to worry . ”
“Ho, however…… it’s still warm, you know!?”
The carcass was as fresh as when we caught it since it was stored in my Infinite Storage . Well, it would become a serious matter if Bloody Wolves appeared regularly around this town, so it cannot be helped that the receptionist was panicky .

  “We defeated it in the Gaya Forest, so please calm down . ”
“.…… Gaya Forest . Ah, magic bag…… you are in a possession of something good then . I’m really sorry . ”
She didn’t question the fact that I had a lot of stuff because I was pretending to be taking it out of a magic bag, but because magic bags that slow down the passage of time are rare, she did not think of that right away .

  “You want this dismantled…… so that means you are not selling it, correct?”
“I want to make a rug out of the fur, so selling it would be a little……”
“T, then, at least the meat!”
Regaining her calm, the receptionist negotiated to get at least some of the Bloody Wolf material .

  “Can’t have . ”
“Meat~”
Allen and Elena were against selling the meat .

  That reminds me, did we ever eat…… Bloody Wolf meat?

  “Err, I’m sorry, it doesn’t look like I can sell it . ”
“.…… How unfortunate . ”
The children’s opinion comes first, so I decided to reject selling it .

  I could have taken out the other Bloody Wolf carcass I have, but I somehow managed to stop myself .

  “The total price came out at this amount . Please come again . ”
After receiving the money, I decided to come for the dismantled Bloody Wolf later, so we went shopping at last .

  “”Next is~?””
“N~ let’s systematically visit the necessary shops, I guess?”
“”Systematically?””
“It means to visit every shop in order . ”
“”Got it! Then~””
“First place is . ”
“There~”
The place Allen and Elena pointed at was a bakery .

  “”Bakery~””
“They didn’t ask for ingredients, but I did forgot to tell them about sweet buns and stuff like that . ”
Sweet buns——jam buns, cream bread, anpan . In addition, Oswald-san could enjoy berry filled pastry, too . Oh, but they probably don’t sell cream bread and anpan here, so let’s buy only jam buns and berry pastry .

  Ah, I surely can’t take Lyra inside the bakery, so I had her wait at the roof for a little .

  “.…… Huh? They have cream bread here?”
When we went inside, I saw that they were selling cream bread .

  “Lad, you are lucky! Cream bread usually gets sold out right away, but there are still some left today!”
“Eh, I will take the rest then . ”
I reflexively buy up all the cream buns left . There are only three, so I wouldn’t have a chance to buy them anywhere else if I didn’t take them .

  “I would also like three of these and these, and also these . ”
There were also bean jam buns and maro buns on the shelves, so I bought all the kinds that Oswald-san would be okay with, in numbers .

  The magic ring that Lyra is wearing does not have the effect of slowing down the passage of time, and I don’t know if Oswald-san has that kind of magic bag, so I tried not to buy too much .

  “.…… I have to thank Rebecca-san when we return . ”
I’m sure Rebecca-san is supporting this bakery . In addition, the bakery is located right next to the Adventurer’s Guild, which makes it easy for us to stop by . I’ll have to thank her when we get back~

  “Onii~chan . ””
“N? What’s up?”
“Allen wants to eat too . ”
“Elena also wants to eat . ”
“Eh, a bread? It has not been that long since you’ve had breakfast, no?”
“”We will do halfsies, so~””
I’m weak to children pleading to me~ Moreover, to make it even harder for me to say no, they said they will split it in half beforehand!

  “N~~~ Sure, if you split with Lyra, too . ”
“”Ya~y . ””
“So, what bread do you want?”
“”Maro bread!””
…… Their reply was too quick . It seems that they were really eager to eat as they had already decided on the type of bread . They probably had no doubts that I would allow it . As their elder brother, I occasionally have to tell them no clearly, but Allen and Elena never do something that needs me to scold them strictly .

  It’s…… difficult to know whether I should feel proud that my younger siblings are good kids or lament that I have nowhere to show my dignity as an older brother . Well, if anything, it’s better to be proud .

  “”Lyra, thank you for waiting~””
“Cuckoo . ”
When we stepped out of the bakery, Allen and Elena immediately called Lyra .

  Then, Lyra flew over right away and settled on my shoulder .

  “Lyra, can you put this into your magic ring?”
“Cuckoo . ”
Because there were no people in sight, I had Lyra store the bread which we just bought into her magic ring . Of course, except one of the maro breads .

  “.…… Nn~?”
When I handed the bread to Allen, he, with a serious look on his face, split off a third of the maro bread off .

  “Here, Elena . ”
“Yay~ halfsies, halfsies~♪”
Elena, who received two-thirds of the bread from Allen, effortlessly split it in half .

  “Here, Lyra’s portion!”
“.…… Cuckoo?”
When Elena presented the maro bread to Lyra, Lyra tilted her head in puzzlement . She probably doesn’t understand the meaning of the bread being offered to her . So I took the bread instead, split it into bite-sized pieces and carried it to her beak .

  “It’s a bread made from maro fruit . Why don’t you try it, Lyra?”
Lyra alternated between me and the bread near her beak and timidly took the bread into her mouth .

  “Cuckoo!”
“”Delish?””
“Koo~!”
Lyra was clearly in a good mood indicated by the lively chirp after eating the bread .

  She seemed to like it, so I tore off more of the bread and brought it to her beak again . Then she ended up eating her third of the bread in no time at all .
