rmally in the middle of processing Tentacles meat, but this time was different.
He was standing in front of the hut while resting his hands on his waist as if he had been waiting for us.

「Yo, Boy! I was busy processing Tentacles meat last night so I couldn’t talk with you, but congratulations! You’re really an extraordinary child.
I’ve processed the lord meat for you.
It’s over there.」(old man)

Saying that, the old man pointed to several aquariums nearby.

There were rather big chunks of white meat floating in the aquariums.
They looked totally different from ordinary Tentacles meat.

「Thank you.
I’ll collect them right away.」(Mark)

I approached the aquarium and put the lord meat in my Item Box.

Right after, the old man went into the hut and brought a cart with ordinary Tentacles meat.

「And this is the meat from twenty Tentacles you ordered yesterday.
I thought you guys wouldn’t get enough Tentacles because the lord appeared, but luckily, they were more than enough.」(old man)

「Thank you, Oji-san.
Here’s the money.」(Mark)

I took out ten gold coins and handed them to the old man.

「Thank you, but are you sure you want to pay for it? I heard that you defeated half of these Tentacles.」(old man)

Actually, last night, the village mayor told me to take the Tentacles meat for free as the villagers’ gratitude for defeating the lord of the lake, but I declined.

「Yes, I don’t mind.
I got most of the lord meat.
I will feel bad if I don’t pay, so please receive it.」(Mark)

「Alright then.
Thank you, Boy.
You’re very mature for a child.」(old man)

As he said that, the old man put the gold coins in his pocket.
He looked very happy.

When I put the Tentacles meat in my Item Box, the old man looked at me curiously.

「By the way, how many items can fit in your Item Box? I heard Melmina got sick because she overused her Item Box, but you seem to be okay after using it many times.」(old man)

「Aa, that’s right! Melmina imitated you after seeing you use your Item Box.
That’s why she got sick.
You should take responsibility and marry her in the future!」(Sanmina)

「Oh, come on, give me a break… Anyway, I never get sick from it probably because I practice magic every day.」(Mark)

「I see.
So that’s why you’re very strong even though you’re still a child.」(old man)

The old man said that with a face as if he was enlightened.

He seemed to be worried about me, but unlike other Item Boxes, my Item Box was a gift from God.
It doesn’t consume my mana when I use it.

The problem is the capacity.
However, I feel like it can still fit tons of things for now, and even if it’s full, I can just take out the unnecessary things like bathwater and things I made with earth magic.

「Mark, your business is over, right? Shall we go now?」(Celine)

Celine, who has been watching us, called out to me from the carriage.

We’re going to part with Sanmina here and leave the village.

「Will you guys stop by when you return from your adventure?」(Sanmina)

「Hmm, honestly, I don’t know.
It depends on the situation.」(Celine)

「I see… But please come if you can!」(Sanmina)

「Fufu.
Alright.
Thank you for having us here.」(Celine)

As Celine said that I got on the carriage and looked at Sanmina.

「Well then, Sanmina onee-chan, see you later!」(Mark)

「See you, Onee-chan!」(Nicola)

「We’ll come again!」(Delica)

After we said our farewell, Delica, who was sitting on the driver’s seat, pulled the horse reins, and then our carriage started moving slowly.

「Be careful on your journey!」(Sanmina)

「Boy, I will prepare Tentacles meat for you if you come to visit again!」(old man)

「Un! Thank you, Oji-san!」(Mark)

As long as I need Tentacles meat, I will surely come again.

No, even if I could no longer get any Tentacles meat here, I might come again just to visit these kind people and enjoy this village’s nature.

As our carriage moved faster, Nicola and I kept waving our hands at the two until we could no longer see them
