On the third day after returning to the city of Lienz, Jin and the others have had two days off since yesterday.

It's just that yesterday I was chased by chores that each accumulated, such as cleaning and cooking for laundry, so it's only today that I'm free all day.

Aria went to the orphanage in the morning, Elsa to adjust her bow to her aunt's shop, and Rachel to the treatment center, each of which had her first holiday in a long time.

In the first place, the way people spend their holidays is their own.

Some people are chased by hoarded chores such as cleaning, laundry, etc., while others enjoy traveling, shopping, etc. Others will learn and study to enhance themselves, or sleep and spend time doing nothing. But whatever use it is, there is nothing wrong with it if it is the result of his choice. Even when it comes to simply sleeping and spending time, it's a meaningful way to have a holiday in the sense of physical recovery.

So what holidays does Jin have in this world?

For Jin, who was an old man in the original world, after retiring, every day was like a holiday. There was certainly something I had to do, such as daily chores, but I still enjoyed playing games and reading every day.

But naturally there are no digital games like the so-called TV games that I loved in this world. Although there is something like an entertainment novel, there are very few relatively expensive things to do. Not to mention none of them leading up to the comics.

It was a holiday in a world lacking in entertainment based on such an original world, but Jin nevertheless sincerely enjoyed his first holiday in a long time.

"Thank you for sharing so much today"

"No, thank you very much for your precious herbs this way. Come back anytime."

When she finishes her conditioning training, which took until after noon, and Jin bows her head deeply to Bean, Bean also laughs and answers.

It had been a few months since I first learned how to formulate from Bean, but Jin continued to come to Bean this way and learn how to formulate when it was on holiday.

In the original world, learning was the only thing I had done as a child, but now I can't help but enjoy the process of gradually increasing what I can do.

Not only is that because of the rejuvenation of the spirit, but also because of the talent skills and high status, it will be one of the reasons why improvement is fast. Now there are more types of medicines that can be made, and the skill level of "Formulation" has risen to 4.

By the way, as usual, Bean doesn't receive a gratuity, so Jin is giving him a rare herb he collected when he left the city at his request, etc., instead. Still, the bean was reluctant to receive it at first, but now she accepts it in case something happens. Because of this, potions that are rarely used, but that work for certain diseases, and so on, are always available in bean stores, even medicines that normally do not exist.

Of course, the medicinal herbs used by Jin to create them at home are well secured, and there are quite a few handmade potions in "Infinite Storage". With Rachel's healing magic, the potion doesn't turn up much, but with the replicated game-era "HP healing potion (small)," it was properly prepared for times of need, with a little more with each day to follow.

"Now if you'll excuse me."

As she thus had a unique holiday in this world, Jin said goodbye to Bean, after a late lunch she headed to her next (...) training destination.

Everyone can easily imagine, but it's still Guntz's weapon shop that Jin headed for.

As with the 'conditioning' training at Bean's store, learning 'blacksmiths' from Ganz was a classic way to spend a holiday in Gin.

"(Ooh? Are you a customer?

Coming close, Jin felt two signs of people in the store by 'sign perception'. The same thing has happened several times before, so Jin drops more volume than usual to say hello so as not to get in the way of business.

"Hello ~"

There were still two customers in the store, but both faces I've seen.

"Oh, gin. You've come to a good place. It's a good opportunity, so I'll introduce you. It's A-ranked 'Blast Axe' Oswald and C-ranked Jade with him. So, Oz. This is the C-ranked gin. Well, the rank is C, but this guy's pretty good at it, huh?

Gantz introduces him in a good mood. The nickname Oswald also made the relationship between the two possible. However, at the end of the day, I laugh a little pranky and niggly and add, it seems to be Gantz.

"Hmm?"

Oswald's eyes look intriguingly directed at Jin. I wasn't experiencing any particular intimidation with a favorable gaze, but somehow Jin felt weird nervousness as he seemed to be being trampled on in price.

"(Mr. Gantz, please introduce me normally ~)"

"(Humph)"

Another gaze directed at the bewildered gin is what seems naturally unsatisfactory. I don't put it in words, but it was the same thing that was pointed at two days ago.

"Haha. Thank you for introducing me, Gin. Not a big guy like Mr. Gantz said, thank you very much."

With a slight bitter laugh, Jin bows his head properly and greets him. Apart from excessive referrals and interests, it was a pleasure to get to know Oswald in this way, an active A-rank adventurer.

"Oh, it's Oswald. Nice to meet you. So, this is..."

"... it's Jade. Greetings."

It was Oswald who answered and Jade who was prompted by it to say hello back, but from that perspective it was a little more dangerous than earlier.

"Okay, hey, I need to talk to Oz, so you wait with Jade there for a while. The usual is after that."

Expecting each other to greet each other, Gantz disappears with Oswald into the workplace behind him, yes, putting a no to Jin. The only two left are Jade and Jin.

Being left alone with someone who I know isn't very fond of here, Jin thinks about the topic of what to talk about even though he feels a little awkward.

"(From yesterday's attitude, my first impression would suck ~)"

It would be helpless to blur inside out so much. However, Jin understood that his first impression was important in relationships, but that was why he had no choice to remain bad and good.

But before Jin could talk, Jade opened his mouth first.

"Your wooden sword"

At the end of Jade's gaze is a wooden sword lowered to Jin's waist. Gin's outfit today is as simple as having a wooden sword lowered to his waist for everyday wear.

"What are you going to do with that?

The gaze you ask is harsh and straight. He was a gin who had a slightly crude image of him from what happened in the guild, but he was reviewing him as if he was the one who had judged him by his first impression that maybe that was just a assumption.

I just couldn't understand what he was trying to ask, and Jin couldn't return a word for it.

"You were in the guild two days ago, weren't you? Even then, he was lowering his back. I wasn't even going to tell you, but you seem to have something to do with Mr. Gantz, who I know in Oswald, and let me tell you that this is how I met him.... Are you willing to kill or lose your sword even if it's C-ranked?

It was a slightly reprehensible tone, but here Jin finally understood what he wanted to say.

Not because Jin was surrounded by women at that time, either, but because of the wooden sword.

Generally speaking, wooden swords have a strong image for practice. Of course, even wood can be a proper weapon if it is well made, but it is true that it is one step inferior to metal in terms of durability and killing power.

Not to mention the C-rank, which sometimes targets people such as bandits, none of whom are purposefully equipped with under-performing wooden swords. From those who do not know the awesomeness of the wooden sword held by Jin, it would also appear that Jin, wearing the wooden sword, is not prepared.

"No, I just use this wooden sword because it's an important one I got from a friend and it also performs well as a weapon. I know what C-rank means, too."

As mentioned before, until the D-rank, requests such as convoy escort duties across the city cannot be ordered, and can basically only be requested by the city to which they belong. That's because even if it's extremely rare, it can target people like bandits. Naturally, when encountered, it is an exchange of lives, so even if there is hesitation there, it can be a life-saving. So those who do not do good at killing people dare remain in the D-rank.

In other words, being C-ranked can also be said to have prepared people to kill.

And in fact, Jin had already taken one life.

"I don't know what you think. Well, hey, it's how you see your surroundings."

It was Jin's dialogue with some bitterness, but Jade cuts it off and throws it away with a bassari.

"If you say you're ready, that's fine. But do you realize that we adventurers are bowing down to represent ourselves? Anyway, if you run out, you seem to be lowering that down your hips even when you're C-ranked. Then it's like you're declaring yourself unsure of the fight. Naturally, some of them are fooling around, and I think they call you the Wooden Sword Guy."

It is damning. But what Jade said was not a mistake either.

In fact, although Jin's name became known in one of the earlier 'magic fever' cases, his strength is still not widely known. Aria is an armed adventurer for a former guild employee, Elsa as a young Hope, and Rachel as a proven "healing magic" user at the treatment center, although the matter of "shelter" is secret, as opposed to each being recognized for their prowess.

That's why his obsession with Jin, especially after Aria's accession, was awesome.

Of course, it was largely reviewed as it became known that it was a role player in the Magic Fever solution, but there's still nothing Jade can say about the wooden sword that doesn't extend to his fellow women.

In fact, it was also true that some people were small in number but still only saw Jin as a "lucky guy who just happened to be well," and that one of the festival stories where such people pull down Jin was a wooden sword.

Normally, because it is unlikely that the wooden sword will have a higher performance than the iron made of black iron, there was no other way to make it seem that way.

"I don't mind if you just make fun of me, but I can't bear to think that if I jump at you, Mr. Gantz, who has eyes on you because of it, and even that acquaintance, Mr. Oswald. I know your wooden sword is important, but I suggest you change it."

In the end, I guess there's something about Oswald at the root of Jade's thinking. But that was never offensive to Jin.

"... what are you laughing at?

Jade asks, stirring up a little anger. Jin's mouth at the end of his gaze was happily broken.

"Oh, excuse me. I'm just a little happy, no other way"

Jin apologizes in advance when a bad habit has emerged.

The way Jade talks is somewhat abusive, but he also thinks about Jin when he says these things. Even if it's mostly for Oswald, I'm pretty sure I have those feelings. That's why Jin was unwittingly happy to say "thank you".

However, this cannot be a pleasant attitude from those who are giving advice. In fact, Jin has failed with this several times, and I was trying to be careful, but sometimes it seems like he's getting loose on someone close to his age.

"Oh my god, you have such good guts... If this happens, I'll give you thorough guidance."

It looks like Jade's fuse wire has been set on fire. Jade is awesome as he pounds his fingers.

"I've always wondered what your way of talking about it is. You're too polite to talk to the same C-rank opponent to feel comfortable. That's why I can lick you. Look, I'm an adventurer in the first place..."

Just because I rang my fingers didn't mean my fist bones were involved, but Jade's instruction, which heated up slightly this way, lasted awhile.

"Got it?

"Yes, no, yeah. Thanks for everything."

I was a gin who was coached to talk with a tame mouth quickly, but basically it's normal for adventurers to talk with a tame mouth like this. It can be a loss of familiarity with the other person, but it's not uncommon to see obvious elders and young people talking with a tame mouth.

On the contrary, you may use proper respect, but that's if you respect them or if they admit that they are clearly better off than you, like Jade against Oswald, the A-rank adventurer.

So basically speaking in a polite tone, Jin can also be said to be easily insulted, but if this is the case for everyone, it becomes well known and the problem is gone. However, in Jin's case, if a friend or opponent wants to talk normally, but in this case, the problem arises because it fuels the other person's mistake.

To put it plainly, you should be able to imagine the sight of talking respectfully to the first-time D-rank adventurers while talking to the B-rank adventurers Zach and the others you know in one of Gerd's cases.

Not only will Jin be insulted, but his friends and friends who normally talk can also be insulted if he is bad.

"(I guess I should finally think of it as a company with a loose relationship up and down)"

I also feel like a slightly abusive expression, but this was Zinn's conclusion.

"Hmm, what are you going to do with the wooden sword?

I jumped out of Jin's relaxation into words, but here's the real deal in the first place.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry you had to advise me, but I'm not gonna stop using this wooden sword."

The same goes for the wooden sword and the way it talks this time, but Jin thinks it's very important to know how to look at it that he doesn't realize.

Even if I don't intend to, I still have an unintended impression around me. As Jade said earlier without trying, it's not what I think, it's what I see around me.

So I thought I'd fix the way Jade taught me to talk this time, and I thanked him for thanking me. I just can't accept everything because of that. Because wooden swords are memorabilia for gin, as well as indispensable objects as sub-weapons and sometimes trump cards.

However, knowing that there was such a view, Jin did not have the option of not reviewing his behavior or attitude.

"It's just because you found out it wasn't good as it was because of Jade. Let's have Mr. Ganz make a wooden sheath too..."

Jade's face, who seemed slightly dissatisfied, also heals in the dialogue that Jin pronounced. I just don't have the confidence in Jin that this is the best solution, and I get a voice from the back in Jin thinking about further solutions.

"Shall I teach you a good way?

There was Gantz and Oswald laughing with a nice smile all in place.
