My Sister is Jealous of Another World Girls~Fun Harem Store Management Chapter 8

Two people are facing each other across the table.
Ruel talks to me with lonely look after a long silence.

「Since there’re a lot of things you can do, having a magical power is just a minimum requirement. So you don’t have to worry about that, Yuki.」 (Ruel)

「Minimum requirement? Is that so? Well, it’s probably that I’m not a special person after all.」(Yuki)

*karan koroーn*

The bell-like thing attached to the store’s entrance rings. It seems that we have a customer.

Her clothes are common like me, is it because that we’re the human race?

「Welcome. h.e.l.lo.」(Ruel)

The expressionless Ruel stands up, walks toward the girl who entered the store and greets her with an amiable voice. At least, you should be polite a little bit when serving the customer, you know?

「Are you looking for something?」(Ruel)

「I heard from my friend who came here that there’re cute accessories in this store. 」

「The accessories are over there. Take a look at them since they are lining up side by side. You can try them before buying since the sizes of the rings and other things are a little bit different from one to another. And just call me if you find something that fits your taste.」(Ruel)

「Eh…ah…yes.」

Ruel’s simple customer service ends and she comes back here.
I wonder if the white one-piece dress that she’s wearing right now is her working uniform? By the way, the clothes that I’m wearing is just plain clothes no matter how you look at it. Let’s ask her if my clothes are also commodities.

Ruel who is sitting on the chair this whole time looks at me.
Eh, what? Is there something on my face?

「Yuki, you’re making face. Are you thinking about something?」(Ruel)

「I’m not making face. This is my normal face. By the way, did someone entrust Ruel with this shop? 」(Yuki)

「It’s my own shop.  I used to have my grandfather and my parents but they aren’t here anymore. I’ll tell you the detail if I feel to do it .」(Ruel)

「Is that so? Anyway, Ruel’s customer service is lacking courtesy.  Would it be better if you smile a little bit?」(Yuki)

「For what? If you show me the commodity I want, I’ll buy it with or even without a smile.」(Ruel)

What kind of thinking is that?

You don’t have the word 『please』 too in your customer services…

「Hey, what happens to smile when serving customer, speech or personal grooming in this world?」(Yuki)

「There’s none particularly. Everybody does whatever they please with their businesses. There’s Uncle Bomb who always yells with a loud voice on the other side of the road. Oh, Uncle Bomb is a dwarf tribe who produces and sells weapons, guards, and other things.」(Ruel)

Uncle Bomb.
Bomb.
*Dokan*
An image of a small and stout dwarf with an explosive hairstyle.

「I see, so does this store run smoothly?」(Yuki)

「I wonder about that. At least, it’s not that easy. I just barely make a living.  The only stores that prosper are the prospered stores 」(Ruel)

There’s one thing I don’t understand about another world.
Everybody does as they please, Are they running their business like that?

*karan koroーn*

Nn? Did the little girl just went home?
She didn’t buy anything though.

「So, what were you thinking just now? 」(Ruel)

「Ruel, do you feel any grat.i.tude toward the customer just now?」(Yuki)

「Nope, She didn’t buy anything. I’ll feel grat.i.tude if she buys something.」(Ruel)

Ow! This one hurts!
This kind of business standard is unacceptable! This shop has to learn some standard to make a profit so that I can pay back Ruel’s gold coins and return to the original world! That’s right, I’m a businessman! (probably)

*cough*

「Ruel. Do you want to make a lot of profit?」(Yuki)

「Well, I don’t need it to be wild merrymaking. Though, I want to have a better life at least. Because I always barely make it……」(Ruel)

「I understand. I’ll make a profit. That’s why, I’m going to teach Ruel the basic of business.」(Yuki)

「Oh, that’s great. Then, I’m going to teach you the basis of magic. For the time being, I’m going to teach you the minimum magic to make living since it looks like you’re going to stay in this world for a while.」(Ruel)

Like that, Ruel-sensei’s magic course begins.

Ruel prepares a quite big tub as we move to the kitchen.
There’s a faucet.
There is also something like a cooking stove.
I wonder, how do you use them?

「First of all, take the water out. I use the water for drinking, preparing meals, tub, toilet and others in my routine life. Right now, I’m going to take out the water from the faucet so please watch it properly.」(Ruel)

*jiiiーー*

I stare at Ruel’s chest.
Ah, I can see them…a little bit more…Ah! That’s too bad!!

「Yuki, I’m serious. Your life and death depend on it. A knife might stick to your forehead if you mess around next time.」(Ruel)

Yes.
I’ll watch it properly.

Ruel grasps the k.n.o.b that is attached to the top of the faucet.And there’s a small light blue gem is attached on to the k.n.o.b.

「A water magic stone is attached to this faucet. The water will come out if you pour your magical power into it. By the way, it will crack if you use it too much which then you can’t use it anymore. The Water Service Guild will change it every 30 sunrises. Of course, there’s a fee for it.」(Ruel)

It’s like water department.
Do they exchange monthly to collect the fees?

Won’t it better if I make it myself? This faucet.

「Yuki, knight corps will restraint you if you sell your own handwork magic stones at the guild. So please be careful.」(Ruel)

O-oh, that’s scary.
Looks like my mind has been seen through completely.

「Then, I’ll be taking out the water. Just grasp the faucet and pour magical power in.」(Ruel)

*jaーーー*

Yup, it’s water. Beautiful. Transparent. It’s more normal than I thought…

「Then, go and have a try too, Yuki. 」 (Ruel)

「Alright, here I come.」(Yuki)

I grasp the faucet. Pour magical power in. Concentrate.
Haaaaa!!

*chorochorochoro*

「Yuki, please do it seriously. There’s no water coming out at all.」(Ruel)

I’m doing it seriously! Did my concentration was not enough?! A-alright.
Water, things that are related to water…

That’s right, a girl with wet hair is surely s.e.xy.
It feels good to have a bath or a good smell, right?

Bath, shower, showeーr………
My right hand becomes hot.

*jaーーーー!!!!*

Oooh, the water comes out! T-the force is amazing.
I have to stop it.
Should I take my hand off it?

It’s already too late when I took my hand off it.
The kitchen is flooded. Unintentionally, I look at Ruel.

Her clothes and hair are wet as she’s covered with water.
Yup, she’s s.e.xy. Her white clothes stick to her body and there’re some places which are slightly transparent. Her body line exposes as those two mountains treasure revealed themselves.

I immediately press my hands together like in prayer.

Thank you for the treat.

Wait, that’s not right!!

「Ruel! I’m sorry. It was unintentionally! That was an accident! An accident!!」

「Yuki, since I’m going to dry my hair and change my clothes, I want you to bring a pail and rags from the cleaning tools just now. Right now.」(Ruel)

「Yessirーーー!!」(Yuki)

I go to the storehouse with the speed of light. It’s the storehouse where I’ve been before.
I hold a candle with my right hand since the room is dark.

When I open the door, I see a familiar face.

「Brother!!!」(Ai)

「Ai! Why are you here!!」(Yuki)

「N-noooo!!!」(Ai)

A punch hits on my right cheek at Mach speed. Ai is stark naked exactly like when I came to another world. I can’t avoid the punch, so I soar like that.
Ah, slow motion.
Am I going to die here……

Ai immediately takes a tray and pot lid nearby to cover her top and bottom. Ai, I want you to hide them before you punch me.
And then, I want you to listen to me………

Anyway, Ai, finally I met you, I’m glad……

*Batan!*dota*gorogorogoro!!*chiーn* 

「Brother! Are you alright!? Are you still alive?! What just happened!!」(Ai)

No, I’m not, Ai punched me, right?

Well, I’m alright. I’m not dead yet. I still have something to do. There’re mountains that I need to climb which are in front of me right now.
Right, comrade……
