【Toast is full of maturity and has a very high tolerance for others. People feel comfortable and safe around him.】
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKaA5qzlYK
【Often chased around by Sandwich asking to lend him some money.
Toast is a very reliable person.】
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOqg48dJCW
When I opened my eyes, my Master Attendant doesn't show any hint of doubt.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiee7VuOQs
The way he looked at me was as if he's looking at an old friend whom he is pretty familiar with.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyg9lk0FpVp
After he looked at me, he gave me an order as if we've been together for a long time already.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4oeVwasNe
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hey, big guy! What are you doing, looking around restlessly like that?"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTRnqudR7M
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'm talking to you! Hurry, come here and help me out!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFMqjJNK0O
Looking at his eyes, I then looked at my surroundings, and only then I realized that I'm the only one standing in the middle of this dirty room.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXpu4jTrYh
「Master Attendant」 :
"Why are you standing still like that? Hurry up!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36CYTdPoGK
Toast : "...... Yes, sir."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mxjykFkLd
This man capable of sitting and working so casually in the middle of this "mountain of trash" is my Master Attendant.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7teTDbQepk
He has a great talent in making counterfeits.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRFZqPpmCW
He's not only capable of forging things like antiques, currencies, and paintings.
According to him, he can also make dolls which looks completely like a real human.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe89NypLkp
I then became Master Attendant's assistant, helping him with handing over tools that he needs as he sits in the middle of mountains of materials.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFa2mvm3ncT
His creations are completely different than his dirty outward appearance.
The numerous creations he made deserve to be called works of art, for it looks just like the real thing, even to the point of scars and scratches it has.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lASbv765n
On the front, he works as someone who repairs everyone's valuable items.
But what he's trying so hard to create right now isn't a request coming from his front job.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0pPABdCwQ
In this unfair world, there will always be something that can make someone angry.
Ordinary people who has neither privileges nor authorities will always long for a hero who will help out the weak.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEGsGP3uFG
It is his job to provide help and faked goods for those heroes.
The nobles always met terrible experiences because of the counterfeits that can't be differentiated from the real deal, such as heirloom jewels they snatched away from poor people, or gold bars made out of relief fund for victims that they took from the treasury.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSnLBzWYrF
And now, what got his hands tied is the biggest, most difficult challenge in his life.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FWQvmMmVc
After the chivalrous thief, who wrenched open a rotten government official's treasury and gave out the money taken from there to poor people for free, were captured, it is decided that he will be executed according to the noble's will.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wkYd8Fmd3
Master Attendant wanted to help out that "comrade" who shared the same ideal as him, but there is only half a month left until the execution date.
That's why, he need to finish the scapegoat doll as soon as possible.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2fHNOu2B8
The doll looked almost alive as little by little it's approaching completion by Master Attendant's skilled hands.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjs2Sc5lGYi
Even the pale blood vessels under the skin is looking nothing different than that of a human's.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBwgVRcQJA
Just as I thought that the doll is finally finished, he threw that doll to me, and grabbed his toolbox.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZb5rQWLRdc
「Master Attendant」 :
"Let's go! We'll go to my friend's place! He can make this doll looking even more alive!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxWFeMOtxb
I looked at the doll, which 90% looked just like a real human, in my hold.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsI6uxlpWY
For some time, I couldn't understand what my Master Attendant meant by his words.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNDueFGSeo
I followed him to the house of a well-known airplane designer in this country.
I couldn't help but opened my eyes when I saw how he kicked the door open without any hesitation and boldly made his way inside.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySxpZHfQCA
「Master Attendant」 :
"Oy! Come out!! I have an urgent business with you!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHVos9b4SQ
The frowning man who came out then looked disgruntled, but unlike the outcome that i feared, he and Master Attendant didn't start quarreling.
It seems that these two have been friends for decades, which is why he's already used to Master Attendant's attitudes.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbqPnGb3c8
This airplane designer isn't only an expert at designing airplanes.
He's also skilled at handling machines.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGd5VTM2qI
If we can get his help, then even an ornamental doll would be able to move just like a human.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4AKC1OPeS
Creating a machine is a process which required an enormous attention to details.
Since they only have a short amount of time left, the two of them need to get into working immediately.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX29JQIyv7
Because he has the designer's help now, I would only be a bother if I stay inside.
Just as I was about to leave and wait outside, my eyes caught the sight of a Food Soul with mechanical wings at the back of the room.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXP73fVc8B
He hasn't spoken a word ever since we entered the house.
If I didn't notice that he has the same kind of presence as I do, I probably would think that he's a robot created by the designer.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbNBWcmZfR
Toast :
"What's your name? Do you want to drink something? I'm good at cooking."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxl3L2g9vP
??? : "......"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHASExsbodB

440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLkVa7y1N1
B-52 : "I am B-52, a Cocktail."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgInYxiikTk
Toast :
"Then... do you have anything that you want to eat, B-52?"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJMfgQakei
B-52 :
"A machine doesn't need eat to food."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡII4miENiAk
Toast :
"...... You're not a machine. If you have something that you want to eat, I'll make it for you."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52aWiHmkKr
B-52 :
"This machine still has enough energy. Meal isn't required right now."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyY5CPfc4kU
He's just like my Master Attendant. He can't just be left alone.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIUnQpgCmA
After Master Attendant came out from the working studio with his friend, the doll that was only quietly sitting down can now do simple movements and talk.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwiMZf3yOw
Master Attendant stretched out as he received the hot milk I prepared for him, and put on a refreshing smile.
Looking smug, he patted the doll's shoulder, and couldn't stop himself from laughing proudly.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bN4tBcu63
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahaha! It's complete now! It looks just like the real thing! I'm such a genius!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBCexAAFyu
Seeing my Master Attendant laughing proudly, I couldn't help but shake my head and then pushed him to the bathroom.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6W4z5L5uO
Toast :
"Hurry and take a bath. You stink of oil and sweat. I've already prepared the fresh change of clothes and towel for you."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWl694WWS1o
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahahaha, I'm a genius!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXA9h3JuA9
Toast :
"Yes, yes, yes. Please hurry and take a bath, Mr. Genius."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptrA6CAzxI
After pushing my Master Attendant, who got a little weird because of lack of sleep, into the bathroom, I put a blanket over the soundly sleeping designer, then turned around to look at the standing still B-52.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBKiPSLmhj
Toast :
"Next time your Master Attendant falls asleep, put on a blanket on him like this, okay?"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWTjDzyezD
B-52 :
"Understood. Command received."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTlyHkuONm
Toast :
"You... don't talk like that, please... you're not a machine after all."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9knEubgFFs
B-52 : "Yes."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujVsWTrV34
I reflexively stroked B-52's hair, and after letting out a long sigh, I pointed at the mechanical doll standing still by the wall.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmleT6A6dhv
Toast :
"That's the one which is a real machine, you're a Food Soul, which isn't so different from a human."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPziNwZuJzu
B-52 : "Human?"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRP0pHuLCj

"Yeah, That's right.."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOui5DnfDNv

440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ8dgB9zS2
Five days left before the chivalrous thief will be executed.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cHL4eNGKI
We parted ways with the designer who had helped us out a lot and returned to Master Attendant's atelier.
Fortunately, Master Attendant and his friend's plan progressed smoothly.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF9faaQlhh
Then finally, the day to execute the plan arrives.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uJz4FQSV4
The numerous citizens whom the chivalrous thief helped surrounded the gallows, worriedly watching over the hero who got captured in order to protect them.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrg6B6QJVi
They didn't know that the real chivalrous thief had changed into clean clothes and left the town.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaFK4BZnek
The doll that Master Attendant created looked so real that the government officials pushing it to the gallows didn't suspect it at all.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQp5cG9B9kL
The moment its head got chopped off, a girl whose life were saved with the money that the chivalrous thief brought burst into tears.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBB9otyZon1
The plan was a success. There's no mistaking it.
But no one ever considered that Master Attendant had placed a trick in the doll's head.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwn4dsPvW2w
The moment its head touched the ground, with everyone's attention focused on it, said head exploded, just like a fireworks.
The nobles were still smiling in satisfaction when they heard the loud sound, which surprised them and made them tumbled down from the viewing platform.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ey6QYqBkG
A fat, mediocre nobleman even fainted because he got so surprised.
Only after his aide pressed his medial cleft that he regained his consciousness.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62o5kVoRPU
His whole body trembled with fury, and seeing him looking like that, the commoners who came because they were worried of the chivalrous thief couldn't help but laugh.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMtQf3FxwS
Their laughter caused the nobleman to become even angrier.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKM9Q5yUVy
Official :
"Reporting! We found a signature inside the doll!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmc9friYgW
Nobleman : "...... Signature!?"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeEMLAM9yE
Official :
"Yes! It's the name of that famous artisan!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHgBUupesH
Noble :
"This is an order! Capture that person!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPxNUWae4D
Looking at Master Attendant, who had a triumphant look on him, makes my head ache and reflexively massaged my temple.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbS1qmUeXhC
Toast :
"Why did you put your signature in it?"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAO7dyYvHA
「Master Attendant」 :
"It's one of my finest works! Of course I have to write my name on it!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiEspDYXk9
Toast : ".................."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNFEGqI5B0
「Master Attendant」 :
"Besides...... I can't let someone else take the blame for me."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z63ciS0Ak
Luckily, I've already made preparations beforehand, packing enough of our properties and prepared a wagon for us to escape with.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0rQP4Blmi
The scenery at the sides quickly changed, and we'll soon leave this land, which doesn't grant freedom nor fairness to its people.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkqj5LryNO
But I was too optimistic about that.
Even though Master Attendant is the one named as the criminal because of his signature, it couldn't prevent the noble from lashing out his anger at the people who helped us out.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiySMzyMSA
The jailer who helped in replacing the imprisoned thief with the doll.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2cVYrwycz
The maids who blocked the nobles' line of view.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAC5RqbG6s
The old man from the fruit vendor who sheltered some people.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQY6pixG3yQ
Looking up at his captured comrades, who were placed on the castle gate, Master Attendant hold me back from trying to surrender myself in place of him.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOhiFZn7Dm
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'll surrender, so please let them go."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZltgOpcJN
Surprisingly, the noble released those people so easily, and then invited him to his mansion.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXY9pBwyLfR
Looking at the smile on the obese man's face as he tried to curry favor with Master Attendant makes me feel uneasy.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o23zQID00
As if he can feel my uneasiness, Master Attendant patted the back of my hand and told me to go to his friend's place together with his other comrades and wait there.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiE0VMvEyG
I tried to stop him, but I was surprised to see the solemnity in his expression.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2SwaHdf1E
I've never seen this sloven man looking so serious. It rendered me speechless and, after suppressing the feeling of uneasiness in my heart with the help of warmth and strength felt on the back of my hand, I decided to trust him.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DCMAR4OEd
Politely nodding to him, we exchanged a promise between men.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu9xzT6hLJ
When I arrived at the designer's house, I noticed that the door is half opened.
I cautiously entered the house and saw that there is only remnants of a riot left. Then, I noticed that there are bloods on the design papers scattered on the floor.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcww3QP2DL
Just what had happened here?
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmXTlzGBKn
Unlike my Master Attendant, the designer is strict on himself and is a bit of a clean freak.
So there's no way he or B-52 would mess the room like this.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTdic2wmf0
When I had cautiously entered the house earlier, I couldn't find that guy, who usually would stand quietly like a machine by his Master Attendant's side.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Twh8vAgNV
And my Master Attendant's friend I found lying on the ground, already dead.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqyfg494R7
Looking at how the blood on the ground already dried make me opened my eyes wide. The thick scent of blood in the air makes me feel sick.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHoFcJp2R8
After calming myself down, I tried searching for B-52, who's supposed to protect his own Master Attendant, but still I couldn't find him after searching through the whole house.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHnDanypLK
The only thing I can do then is placing the dead body of his Master Attendant in the coffin, in place of him.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DQ0JtVtoZ
Master Attendant soon returned. After confirming that he's not wounded, I told him about his friend's death.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmvwrzFCO7
Master Attendant went silent for awhile after hearing about it, and when he opened his mouth to speak again, he said something that I didn't expect.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2kLNslzfU
「Master Attendant」 :
"Where is B-52......? His Master Attendant trusted me with a last will for him."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlSn4oSf95
According to him, on that day when we left this house, as if he had predicted his own death, B-52's Master Attendant entrusted a letter of will to my Master Attendant.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1I1N1t1mu
「Master Attendant」 :
"None of the previous owners of this Azure Stone ever managed to live out their natural lifespan.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0LiIZew3P
「Master Attendant」 :
"Lately, I feel a strange uneasiness that I can't quite express with words."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wceUBYs2a
「Master Attendant」 :
"I don't know whether it's just a misapprehension because it's in my possession now, or if it's a real premonition."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH921PZDtAP
「Master Attendant」 :
"But if I die, I want you to give this letter to B-52."
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lOhLABrY5
After Master Attendant and I hold a memorial service for B-52's Master Attendant together, he once again confined himself in his atelier.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo63q79l9Bs
I don't know what he's trying to make, but I then noticed that among the things he created, some of them is really similar to the best treasures that now had long gone.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvk2rj1eGJM
When he left his place again, he handed over some of the antiques to a noble's attendant.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpmCmzD2u0
I didn't want to ask about what he made. Because if I were to ask him, I probably would reopen the wound ― the fact that he's lending a helping hand to the evil in order to protect his comrades.
I decided to respect his decisions. And, I decided that I will face its consequences together with him.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiEzM0wQev
But, after he handed over the antiques, as if he's feeling relieved, he took me to a hidden passage that B-52's Master Attendant had prepared, and we hurriedly make our escape from the castle.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3jaIUjcTO
"W-why are we running away? You've given them the antiques, right?"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5YHY4xyeY
「Master Attendant」 :
"As if I would do that! It'll be too late if we wait until they realized that I'm tricking them!
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznkTka7W5T
「Master Attendant」 :
"Just hurry and run! I still have to give the letter to B-52, and I refuse to die in this sort of place!"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxmOTxi5UI
Looking at Master Attendant's smug grin makes me feel relieved.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LPihoQPbo
Just like what I thought; my Master Attendant isn't someone who would accept his defeat so easily.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7XPYgMkVt
The only thing that missed his prediction was that it didn't take long for the noble to notice the word "fake" inside the antiques.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjnUfEeqQq
But when the furious noble tried to capture Master Attendant, the atelier had been emptied.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzDJTdCGv7
When we reached the outskirts, our pursuers had already draw pretty close. As I was trying to let Master Attendant to go ahead of me, suddenly some hands stretched out and dragged us into the thickets.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2mRAVsRxZ
In the darkness, I saw a pair of bright eyes. He's looking at us, who are breathing raggedly after running, with an inquisitive look.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2Eidp9LkO
He peeked his head out, and after confirming that our pursuers had long passed through where we were, he turned around and asked..

Toast's Master Attendant isn't the type of person who would keep his things tidy, but surprisingly, Toast is someone who is good at taking care of others.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kWS448qHX
His Master Attendant was a famous artisan. Be it an art object of high price or a mere lousy toy, if he had his hands on it, he would be able to make them looks like they're new again.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QbEviRaUR
Even if one were to lose a precious memento, he would be able to make one which looks just like the real thing.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Xqk8JEgDP
But what got his name to be well-known, in the truest meaning of it, throughout the land is the incident with gorgeous fireworks.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGsDMJuEic
The hero that tried to oppose the rotten government officials, who embezzled the relief fund for disaster victims, was captured by means of foul play.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEzUfildiQ
These unfairness made Toast's Master Attendant, who is a bit childish, to be determined.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqNNCjKHr3
He decided that he will rescue the captured hero from the prison.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL7QvGxsYX
He can make skin and eyeballs that looks just like a human's, but he can't make them move.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0iZ2K8hu6
That's why he relied on his friend.
He and his friend, who is a machine designer, gave their all on it, and finally, they were able to make a robotic doll that almost can't be differentiated from the real thing and managed to switch the chivalrous thief everyone respected and loved with the scapegoat before his execution day.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYn1Q4vmlgP
The moment the robotic doll's head touched the ground, beautiful fireworks exploded right before the eyes of numerous people present in the plaza.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsNuIGDmZH
It was a sight that they won't forget for the rest of their life.
The fireworks also lit a flame within some people's heart.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsrXJMKYlT
Not wanting to involve others in it, the counterfeit maker wrote his name in his creation, which could never be rivaled by others.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78KKbaRcQT
But the counterfeit maker, who had arranged everything to perfection, didn't expect that one of the nobles would be so despicable to the point that he would threaten the life of people unrelated to the incident just to lure him out.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3gmAFIPPy
In the end, he got arrested.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtdkYzNSX0
The Heaven's might be on their side. The noble, after seeing that the man got quite the talent, said that in exchange of guaranteeing the safety of Toast and his Master Attendant's life, ordered the man to make imitations of precious treasures that had already been lost.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOs7DwlntB
For the counterfeit maker, who always called himself a genius, it's a pretty easy thing to do.
If only the noble's daughter's hand didn't slip and let one of the valuable breaks, surely they wouldn't have noticed the little word "fake" written inside so quickly.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pE6LVZYDV
In one of Gloriville's towns, where it receives just the right amount of exposure to the sun, has a moist atmosphere, and very suitable to live in, a small repair shop is quietly opened. The employee of that shop is a dashing man with overflowing charm.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSwzCxaRSw
One day, a blushing girl was getting pushed by her friends to enter the store, and she was almost suffocated when she heard the employee talking to her with his magnetic voice.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3TYLRid9r
Toast looked at the broken pocket watch that she placed on the counter, and after unintentionally let out a laugh as he shook his head, he brought the pocket watch to the inner room.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FTqWbh1MJ
「Master Attendant」 :
"Th-th-th-this is! This is a pocket watch made by Gloriville's most famous watchmaker!! Who's the bastard who broke it!!!?"
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdsEKx2Eme
Toast's Master Attendant came out with his usual filthy appearance.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzRKkOcNTD
After blurting that out to the girl's face, whether it was because he was captivated by the girl's looks, or because the girl thought that his words were funny, no one knows.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpKO7DtAfT
But the two looked at each other, and laughter spilled from both of them.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9mYg6vSwk
That was the first "encounter" of this shop's owner and his dearest wife.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotDZLxfRAz
One beautiful, sunny afternoon. The girl, who then had become a madam, came to the shop while carrying their newly born child.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrvtcfOl7L
A few years had passed since she became his Master Attendant's wife, but still she would blush every time she looks at Toast.
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd6J7YTLwW
After the blushing woman handed over the lunch she brought to Toast, and just before Toast thanked her, a face peeked out from the shop's entrance.
