【Toast is full of maturity and has a very high tolerance for others. People feel comfortable and safe around him.】
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZgw6i5ggR
【Often chased around by Sandwich asking to lend him some money.
Toast is a very reliable person.】
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRI8iKu37Y
When I opened my eyes, my Master Attendant doesn't show any hint of doubt.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ6jrfCHKW
The way he looked at me was as if he's looking at an old friend whom he is pretty familiar with.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4XhJobp1e
After he looked at me, he gave me an order as if we've been together for a long time already.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbThoic1Gcx
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hey, big guy! What are you doing, looking around restlessly like that?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytaqtCMn4Y
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'm talking to you! Hurry, come here and help me out!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCpG0WGlpS
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJ1x1Ju9AW
「Master Attendant」 :
"Why are you standing still like that? Hurry up!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCL2aSMeVU
Toast : "...... Yes, sir."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzEAsCEJXg
This man capable of sitting and working so casually in the middle of this "mountain of trash" is my Master Attendant.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8ND86ja04
He has a great talent in making counterfeits.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIduSLBpdyx
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡag9jD7NnvC
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcJ059tbOW
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rwPoeXDg5
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBWSQ0zcCk
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wRt8AlMVt
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPI9XEq2I3
And now, what got his hands tied is the biggest, most difficult challenge in his life.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvVE5QGb6b
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tcHt9vOOm
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaAs2mMYEO
The doll looked almost alive as little by little it's approaching completion by Master Attendant's skilled hands.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj0rjoPC5n
Even the pale blood vessels under the skin is looking nothing different than that of a human's.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSTmkNWSYP
Just as I thought that the doll is finally finished, he threw that doll to me, and grabbed his toolbox.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHK7D0Iwzv
「Master Attendant」 :
"Let's go! We'll go to my friend's place! He can make this doll looking even more alive!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8amyGxgoU
I looked at the doll, which 90% looked just like a real human, in my hold.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66H30yeXb0
For some time, I couldn't understand what my Master Attendant meant by his words.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8qteeDxQA
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjM6nYJ7Mc
「Master Attendant」 :
"Oy! Come out!! I have an urgent business with you!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbkvnDfKss
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf36re4JLVi
This airplane designer isn't only an expert at designing airplanes.
He's also skilled at handling machines.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡue7THmZb7s
If we can get his help, then even an ornamental doll would be able to move just like a human.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfdscu7HV3
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUWN8yqs3d
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUwnIe54Mc
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgnEaP4kX5
Toast :
"What's your name? Do you want to drink something? I'm good at cooking."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22ppumTvVv

617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXqWNt77Up
Toast :
"Then... do you have anything that you want to eat, B-52?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wkyk77QYU
B-52 :
"A machine doesn't need eat to food."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOk01makeyd
Toast :
"...... You're not a machine. If you have something that you want to eat, I'll make it for you."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwvwBnJ5iF
B-52 :
"This machine still has enough energy. Meal isn't required right now."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2ERzIwSLs
He's just like my Master Attendant. He can't just be left alone.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTQM8kHIsq
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JmmYY4pny
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfKYDhExUw
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahaha! It's complete now! It looks just like the real thing! I'm such a genius!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpkczB4Hri
Seeing my Master Attendant laughing proudly, I couldn't help but shake my head and then pushed him to the bathroom.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxe8xJ48Vb
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."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUN7q5q8Zwh
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahahaha, I'm a genius!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6G8RRX5Ec
Toast :
"Yes, yes, yes. Please hurry and take a bath, Mr. Genius."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdc223DLPs
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8PXOdPr1v
Toast :
"Next time your Master Attendant falls asleep, put on a blanket on him like this, okay?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aunogRodr
B-52 :
"Understood. Command received."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkpiKv54Xd
Toast :
"You... don't talk like that, please... you're not a machine after all."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO80GRPR8pA
B-52 : "Yes."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKkiYWTp3S
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sTaF00Dbw
Toast :
"That's the one which is a real machine, you're a Food Soul, which isn't so different from a human."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUp8f541Fq
B-52 : "Human?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdORFxS1gFq

Five days left before the chivalrous thief will be executed.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvRzFiMXDE
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0mnkH18QN
Then finally, the day to execute the plan arrives.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYs56M6TvX
The numerous citizens whom the chivalrous thief helped surrounded the gallows, worriedly watching over the hero who got captured in order to protect them.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPmETjP1pb
They didn't know that the real chivalrous thief had changed into clean clothes and left the town.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4q1rdZbuB
The doll that Master Attendant created looked so real that the government officials pushing it to the gallows didn't suspect it at all.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcmr7iJWBY
The moment its head got chopped off, a girl whose life were saved with the money that the chivalrous thief brought burst into tears.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6ay9wy2RI
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOjOCOBNa0
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnUfe0rXz0
A fat, mediocre nobleman even fainted because he got so surprised.
Only after his aide pressed his medial cleft that he regained his consciousness.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUfL4o4GoC
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaBLUX02Or
Their laughter caused the nobleman to become even angrier.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVl9hpcmWW
Official :
"Reporting! We found a signature inside the doll!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVcgJ3QUw5
Nobleman : "...... Signature!?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zX06YyKoD
Official :
"Yes! It's the name of that famous artisan!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHUiOK8L3m
Noble :
"This is an order! Capture that person!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgDWl5Jkv1
Looking at Master Attendant, who had a triumphant look on him, makes my head ache and reflexively massaged my temple.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMKihUjQum
Toast :
"Why did you put your signature in it?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6hp4KmIde
「Master Attendant」 :
"It's one of my finest works! Of course I have to write my name on it!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZtL5XGtos
Toast : ".................."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLosA3KjD9q
「Master Attendant」 :
"Besides...... I can't let someone else take the blame for me."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrouI7b8kSY
Luckily, I've already made preparations beforehand, packing enough of our properties and prepared a wagon for us to escape with.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFfVvhbF9b
The scenery at the sides quickly changed, and we'll soon leave this land, which doesn't grant freedom nor fairness to its people.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWSAabqXrc
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNMkuNZnNj
The jailer who helped in replacing the imprisoned thief with the doll.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44CTmpc06D
The maids who blocked the nobles' line of view.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1GgF0kprC
The old man from the fruit vendor who sheltered some people.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7rBHqbJlL
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy22sPutJAW
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'll surrender, so please let them go."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXxgNVwteX
Surprisingly, the noble released those people so easily, and then invited him to his mansion.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdhaYqqsov
Looking at the smile on the obese man's face as he tried to curry favor with Master Attendant makes me feel uneasy.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5IzyLoxGe
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1N8B6bwGq
I tried to stop him, but I was surprised to see the solemnity in his expression.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXCe3jGLSN
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgXzGQtSTl
Politely nodding to him, we exchanged a promise between men.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43DHFegKuZ
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzMfRrvGtZ
Just what had happened here?
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlqE9Y7nmq
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0y54lIJbNo
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoRzPBWVYj
And my Master Attendant's friend I found lying on the ground, already dead.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4E8GnFxEK
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5rXdLNgeo
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5gpV67ZOa
The only thing I can do then is placing the dead body of his Master Attendant in the coffin, in place of him.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSxQLjY5bp
Master Attendant soon returned. After confirming that he's not wounded, I told him about his friend's death.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9A2crPZ6k
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hpMiCqMyX
「Master Attendant」 :
"Where is B-52......? His Master Attendant trusted me with a last will for him."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhYeh52N8B
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbmp2M7IuV
「Master Attendant」 :
"None of the previous owners of this Azure Stone ever managed to live out their natural lifespan.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP0aAXDVSL
「Master Attendant」 :
"Lately, I feel a strange uneasiness that I can't quite express with words."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhjbCa6dRy
「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."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4wOtAJIyx
「Master Attendant」 :
"But if I die, I want you to give this letter to B-52."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLdG1k15U6
After Master Attendant and I hold a memorial service for B-52's Master Attendant together, he once again confined himself in his atelier.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97UetPwuO5
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiCMD6I6Yj
When he left his place again, he handed over some of the antiques to a noble's attendant.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID2qLeZk9k
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDbYU3YzyO
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xnkuEKKLX
"W-why are we running away? You've given them the antiques, right?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLgXEHZLC4
「Master Attendant」 :
"As if I would do that! It'll be too late if we wait until they realized that I'm tricking them!
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xqdX9V6yp
「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!"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoaGrYCtpD
Looking at Master Attendant's smug grin makes me feel relieved.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EkqGLUvuH
Just like what I thought; my Master Attendant isn't someone who would accept his defeat so easily.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp58DUkhLxI
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUuBV7s047
But when the furious noble tried to capture Master Attendant, the atelier had been emptied.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqG3sH2wlD
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0YXdZ9ipD
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5kZIw0RWj
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO0v0mAvWX
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HfHFsvFzQ
Even if one were to lose a precious memento, he would be able to make one which looks just like the real thing.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PVpCOc4Qg
But what got his name to be well-known, in the truest meaning of it, throughout the land is the incident with gorgeous fireworks.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdPMzddYKD
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoD3H15XlJN
These unfairness made Toast's Master Attendant, who is a bit childish, to be determined.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShocPgIaJQ
He decided that he will rescue the captured hero from the prison.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7KovPtdoi
He can make skin and eyeballs that looks just like a human's, but he can't make them move.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQH8L7goXL
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38ZbprLC12
The moment the robotic doll's head touched the ground, beautiful fireworks exploded right before the eyes of numerous people present in the plaza.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNn2IWH3TKM
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4dIg1MTAZ
Not wanting to involve others in it, the counterfeit maker wrote his name in his creation, which could never be rivaled by others.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmru0TLQ1e7
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1IWNF8lB0
In the end, he got arrested.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0HqaY5QYS
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGaTF1HWb8
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQ1mj2iOvk
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoHVBahNQC
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsENm7Ay6B4
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPIRE2EHup
「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!!!?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMsie3Xyzf
Toast's Master Attendant came out with his usual filthy appearance.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OuWQiIQGZ
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.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm517DY6qVj
But the two looked at each other, and laughter spilled from both of them.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHLJvNoIom
That was the first "encounter" of this shop's owner and his dearest wife.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRT0jpwUEb
One beautiful, sunny afternoon. The girl, who then had become a madam, came to the shop while carrying their newly born child.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5tvGdEe1R
A few years had passed since she became his Master Attendant's wife, but still she would blush every time she looks at Toast.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tBEKY9RXN
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.

Looking at how the boy danced around happily while holding the wallet, Toast couldn't help but heaved out a sigh.
