The Legendary Daddy Merchant

All around the continent, conversations goes like this… The Hero’s party “Woah! Where did you get that sword?” “I purchase it from that place.” A group of birdmen “I heard that place have a Wing Wash service that can increase our speed in the sky.” “You’re also headed there?” A group of green goblins “Since we have a long break, where can we go for our vacation.” “That place sounds good. Maybe I’ll be lucky to see Young Boss and confess to her.” “Haha, go ahead if you don’t mind being beaten up and blacklisted in that place.” Scholars say that every citizen in their city has given 'that place' at least one gold coin. They estimate that 70% of the whole continent’s economy is somehow related to 'that place’s name'. How did this happen they ask…? It is because of the Boss Merchant who only provides them with only the best products and services one can imagine.

Don't Use That On My Wife

"Welcome! I suppose Raju is your…"

"All of us came from the same Triphon tribe. And coincidentally, or not, we are all part of the same group working in the Hunting Guild."

Brian never knew that tens or even hundreds of people can join in a single group. Maybe because it was the Hunting Guild and not Adventurer's Guild that Raju's tribe were co-workers.

It makes sense since the usual tasks they perform need a lot of manpower to meet the needed supply.

"Hoho~ This should be the Makaze Old Raju will not stop talking about." The glass container with the Makaze is being surrounded by interested and curious stares from wolves of different colors and sizes.

Seeing this, Lucy decided not to leave her area because if she tries to, she will be lost within the cramped-up crowd. There were even more waiting outside because there barely was any space to move inside.

"Oi, you came back much earlier than expected."

Brian was excited to see the sudden influx of potential customers in front of them. However, he still needs an explanation so he can sleep well at night.

"I'm also not sure why…"

"Huh?"

"No one expected the leading party for killing the Variant Leader ended so soon especially after it was discovered there were two of them and one was a step below being a Calamity Grade. People have even begun calling him the hero because of his achievement."

Hearing this, Brian wanted to laugh because a dragon being scolded by an elf came into his mind.

Now he knows why Raju and his group ended their shift early. With no leader leading those Mantises, all its minions will fall back like the instinct Pests almost always have. Those planning to make an earning during that invasion must have curse Makoto's group silently.

'Wait… Is it because of Makaze and Nova's product that they were able to do it? I should have put our brand name on everything if he was going to be that bigshot.'

A shameless thought came to his mind. Brian does not know as each day pass, he was becoming more and more fitting to be a merchant.

Fortunately for him, his conscience is stopping him from doing so because people of Soliel will definitely hate him for it. The world is not yet prepared for logos and brand names to be in everything.

"Let me change the subject a bit. Why does the sword look much better and now more expensive compared to when I first saw it? And what's with the hairbrush?"

"Richi got better so that's that. For the hairbrush… Let's just say it's a treasure I know of."

Brian's explanation was not something very compelling, but Raju still believed anyway. If the man who has taught his son to create a sword such as Makaze, then what he says is a treasure is surely a treasure.

The only problem he got was the price of the brush. Raju deduces that anything displayed on the center would be something of extravagant quality. However, that does explain why a simple-looking hairbrush was priced 5 gold. Maybe it was made from the rarest tree, but Raju will never know value unless he tries it for himself.

Fortunately for Raju and Brian, some wolf's curiosity got over them and handed Lucy five coins. Although they have not noticed it yet because both fathers were busy following up with one another on what they have done during the past week.

Lucy who entered and came out of the workshop bringing the same brush displayed, straight away became the center of attraction of everyone present. She will not take directly from the workshop unless someone bought one of their Specialty Product so Brian saw that.

"You're buying it? I thought you just came to take a quick look?" A friend of the wolf who purchased it was baffled.

"It's not for me… I promised my wife to buy something for her after I am done with my overtime."

"But five gold for a hairbrush? You can already buy pretty-looking jewelry with that."

"She does not like those things. But at the same time, I want to gift her something special. And I can feel this brush is the one I'm looking for."

The owner of Nova was watching this scene with a mixed feeling of reminiscing and joy.

As this customer received the brush in a customized box the System has provided, he was satisfied with how delicately packaged his purchase was. He never understood what the purpose was of putting things in a bag after you bought it, but now he appreciated how a small beautifully designed wooden box will make the receiver of it feel special.

"Come, take it out. Let me try how brushing my fur like a rich woman."

"No! My wife would be the first one to take it out. Buy yours if you want to try one."

It only takes a pioneer for others to follow in their footsteps. Once this brave customer bought one of the most expensive ware in the shop, those who were hesitating are now taking what they want and hand their payment to Lucy.

Almost all of them do not have any plans to buy anything. They only came to Nova because they wanted to see the sword one of their leaders used to hack tens of Mantises easily.

But after seeing how cheap they were, they were convinced that it would be a waste of a trip if they did not buy anything. Many pick equipment they have damaged during their time on the battlefield. Some choose to replace their lesser quality weapons. And one of their leaders has decided to risk and trust the words of Raju in regards to the Makaze.

Or he was simply jealous enough since Raju took most of the spotlight in their last expedition.

'Raju has brought a big haul of profit today, but it is still not enough…'

The means are already in Brian's hands so he will not waste this opportunity to finish the quest today because it would be his last chance. With a plan in set, Brian claps his hands to gather the attention of everyone.

"May I introduce to my friend's companions what our blacksmith is prided for… Many of you should already understand the sword named Makaze is unlike any swords that you may know of… But the Tranquility Brush is a treasure not less than Makaze."

They looked at Brian like a swindler making empty promises. However, with Raju backing up his words, they gave him some face and tried to entertain this said treasure.

"Since it would be difficult to show it through words, I'll have to ask someone to volunteer for me to demonstrate its value. Don't worry because all I am going to do is brush you with this."

The crowd went quiet and they look one another. But the first one to talk was the wolf who was bothering her friend a while ago. She really wanted to try the brush after seeing it up close.

"Move a bit closer so I can brush it on you." Brian noticed that his volunteer was shaking a bit so he let her prepare first internally before putting the hairbrush on the tip of her fur.

Brian touched the fur of Triphon wolves many times through the sons and daughters of Raju and Raine. He can conclude that they were born with an inherited conditioner that makes their fur the best condition one could have. The volunteer is also the same.

With one soft and smooth stroke, Brian comb from head to the upper portion of the already bareback.

"…Ah~!"

"!!!" Heads were turned in seconds when a seductive moan coming from their female brethren echoed inside the blacksmith. Even those who were outside got their attention taken when something lewd sound came out of the normal shop.

Brian who was holding the Tranquility Brush got goosebumps when suddenly the tail of his volunteer began wrapping on his delicate yet steady arms. He can feel it enticing him to something he should never go to so he immediately moves a step back towards a safe distance.

"…I guess it's really effective for those who are a furry race."

"Bry… Don't use that on my wife."
