【Toast is full of maturity and has a very high tolerance for others. People feel comfortable and safe around him.】
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrlD9SF1YX
【Often chased around by Sandwich asking to lend him some money.
Toast is a very reliable person.】
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UXMJU4AMB
When I opened my eyes, my Master Attendant doesn't show any hint of doubt.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0VRBY1aQ3
The way he looked at me was as if he's looking at an old friend whom he is pretty familiar with.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ffars4fdT
After he looked at me, he gave me an order as if we've been together for a long time already.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2JdUt1gjt
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hey, big guy! What are you doing, looking around restlessly like that?"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HVh5VABd9
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'm talking to you! Hurry, come here and help me out!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yVzOzljvi
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4OmvwVmVM
「Master Attendant」 :
"Why are you standing still like that? Hurry up!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPpK3PwCQb
Toast : "...... Yes, sir."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhWZKG0SLs
This man capable of sitting and working so casually in the middle of this "mountain of trash" is my Master Attendant.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdYlqOd1Tv
He has a great talent in making counterfeits.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYSonoQrW6
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA7fINmrIF
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcybxiSf48U
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnean89orgT
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREmJQkzj6k
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskjB6MFodR
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEydFjiJ4E
And now, what got his hands tied is the biggest, most difficult challenge in his life.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qujUIldVT
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9hi5ru8vy
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2XuV9TIsZ
The doll looked almost alive as little by little it's approaching completion by Master Attendant's skilled hands.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5eZsJBy8V
Even the pale blood vessels under the skin is looking nothing different than that of a human's.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9A1tdOV9Vz
Just as I thought that the doll is finally finished, he threw that doll to me, and grabbed his toolbox.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE2ntSNwuo
「Master Attendant」 :
"Let's go! We'll go to my friend's place! He can make this doll looking even more alive!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IvNVaV2pe
I looked at the doll, which 90% looked just like a real human, in my hold.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRcjUL1n2O
For some time, I couldn't understand what my Master Attendant meant by his words.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36HX3RWNNF
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZChMomFwGZ
「Master Attendant」 :
"Oy! Come out!! I have an urgent business with you!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcnaoENA3d
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTZtbBeY51
This airplane designer isn't only an expert at designing airplanes.
He's also skilled at handling machines.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKYeFKqghZ
If we can get his help, then even an ornamental doll would be able to move just like a human.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw99y7Q1jTC
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGus5vtiRJY
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTGTVHnKyw
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8k8b7GCj40
Toast :
"What's your name? Do you want to drink something? I'm good at cooking."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfVvY5hZl5

B-52 : "I am B-52, a Cocktail."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZ7uVNTsVE
Toast :
"Then... do you have anything that you want to eat, B-52?"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIDDqzIXZ9
B-52 :
"A machine doesn't need eat to food."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rF0cCj4ir
Toast :
"...... You're not a machine. If you have something that you want to eat, I'll make it for you."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsK39BpXEjS
B-52 :
"This machine still has enough energy. Meal isn't required right now."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpWbh3nemw
He's just like my Master Attendant. He can't just be left alone.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6Syrt7WJF
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEr6yDjiS4k
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RA1XvkhAW
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahaha! It's complete now! It looks just like the real thing! I'm such a genius!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJMCtxwsXK
Seeing my Master Attendant laughing proudly, I couldn't help but shake my head and then pushed him to the bathroom.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFysoVXhPr7
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."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvcX1k0MWL
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahahaha, I'm a genius!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5h7rB3Y31t
Toast :
"Yes, yes, yes. Please hurry and take a bath, Mr. Genius."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnVKGPV15E
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWLBMQav2l
Toast :
"Next time your Master Attendant falls asleep, put on a blanket on him like this, okay?"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOohm8Bcwp
B-52 :
"Understood. Command received."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmk31CKhfD7
Toast :
"You... don't talk like that, please... you're not a machine after all."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GFQFX0drl
B-52 : "Yes."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuVNYzqaVI
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbfJPsilmF
Toast :
"That's the one which is a real machine, you're a Food Soul, which isn't so different from a human."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpK6buCDpZ
B-52 : "Human?"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6Zp9dpw83

Five days left before the chivalrous thief will be executed.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMXz6G5f4Z
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwU4hdt0hh
Then finally, the day to execute the plan arrives.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKTwPaD8Yt
The numerous citizens whom the chivalrous thief helped surrounded the gallows, worriedly watching over the hero who got captured in order to protect them.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9sEmd6Fdk
They didn't know that the real chivalrous thief had changed into clean clothes and left the town.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xtdNX7ywS
The doll that Master Attendant created looked so real that the government officials pushing it to the gallows didn't suspect it at all.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzRN6u8FPK
The moment its head got chopped off, a girl whose life were saved with the money that the chivalrous thief brought burst into tears.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4CWL2VQ2s
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwywakqE86
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xClj90GXv
A fat, mediocre nobleman even fainted because he got so surprised.
Only after his aide pressed his medial cleft that he regained his consciousness.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk8xPMFMYK
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuox6VCbl0C
Their laughter caused the nobleman to become even angrier.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7IFjS4nKZ
Official :
"Reporting! We found a signature inside the doll!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmOWZTdfoF
Nobleman : "...... Signature!?"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYGrHW5YXq
Official :
"Yes! It's the name of that famous artisan!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskCsBgmycQ
Noble :
"This is an order! Capture that person!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5UirOlcWg
Looking at Master Attendant, who had a triumphant look on him, makes my head ache and reflexively massaged my temple.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9mXRnhwC1
Toast :
"Why did you put your signature in it?"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1ZlTQ0N1o
「Master Attendant」 :
"It's one of my finest works! Of course I have to write my name on it!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77DkUNHAJd
Toast : ".................."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBv8yKXKuC
「Master Attendant」 :
"Besides...... I can't let someone else take the blame for me."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ia6i6KBG0
Luckily, I've already made preparations beforehand, packing enough of our properties and prepared a wagon for us to escape with.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMkfhY1cVi
The scenery at the sides quickly changed, and we'll soon leave this land, which doesn't grant freedom nor fairness to its people.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5ZfGoFX5U
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAfLpDf0tw
The jailer who helped in replacing the imprisoned thief with the doll.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbG8CKBd5x
The maids who blocked the nobles' line of view.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzpIbO3kbY
The old man from the fruit vendor who sheltered some people.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOctcc8IbAD
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK1G6IZ7io
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'll surrender, so please let them go."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4668qCrY0
Surprisingly, the noble released those people so easily, and then invited him to his mansion.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJHYwSPe9j
Looking at the smile on the obese man's face as he tried to curry favor with Master Attendant makes me feel uneasy.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWS88vD2jRb
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yyIYxDJpf
I tried to stop him, but I was surprised to see the solemnity in his expression.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5WopGR551
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIJjaAQr2M
Politely nodding to him, we exchanged a promise between men.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXW3SWTRUx
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPgfirXphl
Just what had happened here?
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAC2WPRP36
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7TM58VIWu
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZptnxIo1XO
And my Master Attendant's friend I found lying on the ground, already dead.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3qnZdpZLF
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrO82syPC7
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVLk8xpokR
The only thing I can do then is placing the dead body of his Master Attendant in the coffin, in place of him.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF78CFxlraK
Master Attendant soon returned. After confirming that he's not wounded, I told him about his friend's death.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGVEnOtQ2W
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYsQ8HmgS3
「Master Attendant」 :
"Where is B-52......? His Master Attendant trusted me with a last will for him."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmNPwCUguy
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1LTzx58B1
「Master Attendant」 :
"None of the previous owners of this Azure Stone ever managed to live out their natural lifespan.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwGELAHFSQ
「Master Attendant」 :
"Lately, I feel a strange uneasiness that I can't quite express with words."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZApf0AYQIR
「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."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tKcN2NI10
「Master Attendant」 :
"But if I die, I want you to give this letter to B-52."
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcWj9TzeFZ
After Master Attendant and I hold a memorial service for B-52's Master Attendant together, he once again confined himself in his atelier.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1P0a5GhKl6
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGtcYds6LS
When he left his place again, he handed over some of the antiques to a noble's attendant.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgtcicNPHi
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMGxBJCp9f
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjtC163Qj5
"W-why are we running away? You've given them the antiques, right?"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6HbNnB20Z
「Master Attendant」 :
"As if I would do that! It'll be too late if we wait until they realized that I'm tricking them!
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYV7vSKOjQ
「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!"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hprW6qjuo
Looking at Master Attendant's smug grin makes me feel relieved.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyri5XqBqvR
Just like what I thought; my Master Attendant isn't someone who would accept his defeat so easily.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDmdzaYnPp
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QLwffJlw4
But when the furious noble tried to capture Master Attendant, the atelier had been emptied.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGgIHzikLq
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiePzepHfa
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2dfx5eP1J
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHftiLeZBq
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ106EmPJu4A
Even if one were to lose a precious memento, he would be able to make one which looks just like the real thing.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY1mtoYmgk
But what got his name to be well-known, in the truest meaning of it, throughout the land is the incident with gorgeous fireworks.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOJfcExoMJ
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ9VRodYry
These unfairness made Toast's Master Attendant, who is a bit childish, to be determined.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwI3TTYUOI
He decided that he will rescue the captured hero from the prison.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTuXVphYP1
He can make skin and eyeballs that looks just like a human's, but he can't make them move.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KXAQJFhP2
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4LIKYw73V
The moment the robotic doll's head touched the ground, beautiful fireworks exploded right before the eyes of numerous people present in the plaza.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo2PRQGwhL
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6k3tuzBP4
Not wanting to involve others in it, the counterfeit maker wrote his name in his creation, which could never be rivaled by others.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnQGETPiqo
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpwXbRiTue
In the end, he got arrested.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEu6xMj9cQ1
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQd2QT2TwT
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.

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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrrvzTmJJV
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lb4lETjnA
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWw0HtIrnQ
「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!!!?"
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67d7K8COMi
Toast's Master Attendant came out with his usual filthy appearance.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriVTjpDenD
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.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8b5Y0OboxY
But the two looked at each other, and laughter spilled from both of them.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBreIxmrtzy
That was the first "encounter" of this shop's owner and his dearest wife.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs0KmbNuO5
One beautiful, sunny afternoon. The girl, who then had become a madam, came to the shop while carrying their newly born child.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWdeYo8qH7
A few years had passed since she became his Master Attendant's wife, but still she would blush every time she looks at Toast.
448Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79EcM9mqrr
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.
