T.N: d.a.m.n it. They raised the electric cost by 23% and they even cut the power in my district from 8:00AM to 8:00PM each day. Minus 8 hours+ of work. They stole me 4 hours of free time to play.

In this hot weather, I can"t even use a fan or air conditioner. I barely have 3 hours from 8:00PM to 11:00PM and I can"t even play games.

— 5:00 pm North District Grand Market —

During the explanation, Irene came into the reception room and told us our results.

And I was the only one who could answer all the question.

I have not felt it yet, but in that reception room, I was trembling for an unknown reason.

Rina grabbed my hand to support me.

As for Pochi…

Pochi smiled out loud.

I"m glad I could afford the money, but it was clear that our monthly life was tight.

I heard that there"s something like a student dormitory at Magic University, so I asked Trace about the details and she told me the wonderful information that we could stay at the dormitory for 500 Gold a month.

I and Rina went to do the dormitory procedure and decided to stay at dormitory from March.

However, for the time being, I must earn more money by doing guild"s quest.

Because we don"t have to spend 10,000 Gold for each of us for the admission fee, we can spend it for yourself. I don"t think that I need to buy clothes anytime soon but Rina said she would like to give me a robe with that money.

I said that Rina should use it for herself but she stubbornly refused.

And then here we are, the North District, Grand Market

It will be a disaster if Pochi chooses it, but it would be safe with Rina.

We went to various stores and searched for clothes. Sometimes we decided to buy things at some shops but we were refused entry because of my appearance.

By the way, we can freely bring our familiar to go shopping.

In the fitting room of the last store, I received these words from those two.

Black boots, brown pants, a necklace with a silver key accessory from the top of the black turtleneck inner. And…

I feel malice in Pochi"s words, but Pochi helped to choose this cloak.

Yes, I wanted to celebrate Rina for pa.s.sing the entrance exam and was trying to buy a present.

****************

The store is located on the west side of the Magic Academy and looks like an old-fashioned wooden house…

A rough voice echoed when I opened the door along with doorbell.

At the back of the store, a thick black-haired uncle was sitting on a chair while reading a book.

Gaston corrected the gla.s.ses and looked at me. Then he pointed at the left direction.

I was surprised as if something grabbed my heart. I felt as if the blood flow in my whole body stopped for a moment.

Gaston, who called me from behind, approached me without footsteps and went around in front of me.

I appeal for Rina"s approximate height by hand and convey the desired size.

The old man handed me a silver-colored cane.

An unknown word that I didn"t know.

It can be said that civilization has advanced in these places.

I pointed to a price tag “9800 G” stuck on the shelf and asked Gaston.

I got an immediate decision and decided to buy both canes.

I came out of the store while hearing the same doorbell and cool greeting voice.

The area is already getting dark.
