Four days had passed since we had first arrived in Kelg. I was strolling through the town with Yuki and Natsuki. We’d left Touya behind in the reference room, but it wasn’t because he was reading too slowly; it was just that he’d taken way more breaks than the rest of us. Every two hours or so, he’d stand up and tell the rest of us he was “heading out to gather information.” I had checked to see what he was actually up to, and he seemed to be enjoying himself chatting with the guild receptionists. It wasn’t the most inexcusable thing in the world, but it meant he ended up having to remain behind to make up for the lost time. As for Haruka, she’d finished reading the booklets quite fast, so she headed out to Yasue’s place to teach her some skills. Yasue had copied skills from Touya and me as well, but Haruka’s skills, like Cooking and Sewing, were more useful for everyday life. Our other skills were ones that only adventurers would use on a daily basis, so Haruka had decided in advance that she would only teach them to Yasue if we had some spare time. As for why I was strolling through Kelg with Yuki and Natsuki, it was because one of the reasons we had decided to visit Kelg was to look around for bookstores.

“This is the area where Yasue told us to look around, isn’t it?” Natsuki asked.

“Yeah, it should be. Oh, I think we found the place! Wait, hold on.” Yuki, who was walking ahead of Natsuki and me, pointed at a store, then ran over to read the poster on the door. “What’s this? Hmm...”

The poster in front of Yuki read Books on sale! Fifty percent off on all goods!

Yuki raised her voice in shock when she registered what the poster said. “Huh?! Fifty percent off on all books?! In this world?!”

Her reaction was a perfectly normal one. Up to this point, I’d never seen a sale at a bookstore in this world, nor had I seen any posters like this one, since most ordinary people were illiterate. On top of that, most books were one-of-a-kind products and, as such, extremely valuable. It wouldn’t be too unusual to find deals on sheaves of documents that hadn’t been bound into a book, or on books like Time Magic grimoires that were unlikely to sell, but a sale on the entire inventory of a store was pretty unusual.

“Well, I guess it isn’t too crazy for a bookstore to have a poster outside,” said Yuki. “The customers would have to be literate, after all.”

“Mm. However, we certainly are lucky to have come across a store with books on sale so early in our search,” said Natsuki. “I feel like this bodes well for us!”

Back on Earth, Natsuki’s family had been fairly well-off, but apparently even she was susceptible to the word “sale”; she seemed quite happy as she led the way inside. The
