The shopkeeper was dumbfounded for a moment, but after a few seconds, she confronted me with her eyes bulging out of her sockets .

“You mean all of it? Are you sure it’s all of it?”

“Yeah . ”

“Not just what’s on display, but really, everything that’s in the store right now?”

“……Yep . ”

To be honest, I hadn’t thought that far, but I might as well buy their inventory they keep in the warehouse too .

I hesitated a bit, then nodded .

“How much will it all cost?”

“Eh? W-wait, wait, wait! I-I’m not mentally prepared for this… . . !”

More than mental preparation, they should be calculating how many items they have in the first place, but I’m sure my proposal is a bit sudden .

I silently watched the shopkeeper as she fumbled around behind the counter while gripping her chest tightly .

From there, I could hear fragments of words such as “How could it be, this is so audacious…” or “This is definitely a pro…” Maybe she misunderstood me as a professional merchant, or in other words a prideful merchant .

“Understood, I’m also a merchant! I’ll take your proposal . However, I won’t give my stock away at only half-price! Are you prepared for this?”

“Eh? Ahhhh……”

Even though it’s done to the extreme, I’m just shopping here, so I want them to deal with it normally . However that doesn’t seem to be the case now .

“Ten million E!”

“…Huh?”

“If you want to have everything in this store, you have to hand me 10 million E!”

“Expensive!　It’s way too expensive!”

The clerk looked triumphantly at me with a grin on her face .

”Fu, fufufu . I told you before that I am not a cheap woman! If you understand, get out!”

“No, I’ll pay it!”

“Ehhhhhhh??!??”

The fact that she wasn’t a cheap girl or the high price of the store’s merchandise had nothing to do with it . No matter how you look at it, the price was too high . It just so happened that I got triggered at the sight of her self-satisfied smirk . In short, I lost my cool .

“…Souma . ”

Ringo discreetly tugged at my clothes from behind, but I didn’t stop .

“I can pay up front . Here, I’ve got out my crystal . ”

“Eh? Ah, yeah… Ehhhh???”

The clerk stared in wonder as she transferred ten million E from my crystal to the shop, then dropped her shoulders as if to say, “I’ve lost to the customer…”

“I’ve definitely received the money… . Esteemed guest . ”

“Esteemed Guest!??”

I guess I was recognized as an important customer for paying a lot of money, so this shopkeeper started to call me in funny ways again .

The clerk herself seemed to become embarrassed while calling me this, as her face was red . If it’s embarrassing, I think it shouldn’t be said, but the clerk resolutely started talking to me in this way no matter the cost .

”So what do you want now, esteemed guest?”

“Oh, yeah . In the meantime, I’m going to take the merchandise with me . ”

I feel out of my comfort zone with this unfamiliar call, but for now I want to confirm my spoils of war .

When I said this, the shopkeeper smartly bowed .

”Understood, esteemed guest!”

She returned a reply filled with excessive spirit .

There was a lot of stuff in that item shop .

A variety of recovery and condition healing items, adventure tools such as torches, ropes and tents, and disposable items such as arrows that can be used for ranged attacks .

Unfortunately, the Teleportation Stone I was hoping for didn’t show up this time, but in the bargain section, there’s an ultrrare supplement item, the Speed Seed, as well as lots of other fascinating stuff .

[Flower Fire (Rat Model)] . When you use it, the fire (in the form of a rat) attacks enemies, allies, allies, and mainly allies .
[Cooler Box] . A convenient adventurer’s bag that freezes the time of the item you put inside and prevents deterioration of things such as food items .
[Magic Video Recorder] . While this was a video game, a video recorder was practically useless because the general-purpose menu of the VR device had a recording function .

(Indeed, there’s definitely some good stuff in here…)

There are so many interesting junk items that I can’t help but be fascinated by them . A useful item is important, of course, but there’s just something about useless items that attracts people’s attention .

Ah, the peculiar sense of immorality and delight when you buy a lot of items without much thought! This is why I can’t stop going to item stores .

(Plus, it’s good that I’ve got all this stuff in my inventory now . )

The difference between a VR game store and a non-VR game store is that in a VR game, the only products are what is on display in the store .

Of course, there are exceptions, but basically, in VR games, the stock gets sold out when there are no more products displayed, so you can’t do something like [Buy 99 Potions] .

For example, if there are 20 potions displayed in the store, you can’t buy more potions once you’ve bought all of them, so you’ll have to wait for the product to be replenished the next day . I think it’s a bit unrealistic to sell only the items on display even if there’s more stock out the back, but that’s the difference between the real world and a game .

This time, however, we were even able to purchase the inventory of all the items in the warehouse . The amount there is about three times as many as the amount displayed on the store shelves . This way, I won’t have to worry about running out of items for a while .

So this whole store buying thing was a huge success!

As I was thinking about these current affairs with my head in the clouds…

“…Souma . I can’t handle this . ”

Ringo’s voice comes out from behind me .

I wondered if it was Ringo, she could bear it, but it seems that even she can’t do it after all .

I’ll take care of it now .

I look back with a resigned look on my face .

That’s the biggest thing that’s bothering me right now .

There was still a heap of skulls piled up around the place .
