【Toast is full of maturity and has a very high tolerance for others. People feel comfortable and safe around him.】
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29gukq2uBr
【Often chased around by Sandwich asking to lend him some money.
Toast is a very reliable person.】
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gaPwoPf8E
When I opened my eyes, my Master Attendant doesn't show any hint of doubt.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y9hwRn1S4
The way he looked at me was as if he's looking at an old friend whom he is pretty familiar with.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9erAwRs7s
After he looked at me, he gave me an order as if we've been together for a long time already.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTRtUoOWX5
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hey, big guy! What are you doing, looking around restlessly like that?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidsNLTCI2Y
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'm talking to you! Hurry, come here and help me out!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocMzwXXETj
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjFpfXaG79
「Master Attendant」 :
"Why are you standing still like that? Hurry up!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahwOZek961
Toast : "...... Yes, sir."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSx51Err5HH
This man capable of sitting and working so casually in the middle of this "mountain of trash" is my Master Attendant.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLTX2GKaMO
He has a great talent in making counterfeits.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoB0w0LHLMM
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhiNXAIZTp
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN4HClxHns
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGB049WiJ5
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGnXqQOesB
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1VLmpl42F
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWDpasPDai
And now, what got his hands tied is the biggest, most difficult challenge in his life.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa68gO2xFtu
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKQs6m0Gr6
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4wXLeVIHF
The doll looked almost alive as little by little it's approaching completion by Master Attendant's skilled hands.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpqje8fZ2f
Even the pale blood vessels under the skin is looking nothing different than that of a human's.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ksf20dKJM
Just as I thought that the doll is finally finished, he threw that doll to me, and grabbed his toolbox.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUudD5JFkK
「Master Attendant」 :
"Let's go! We'll go to my friend's place! He can make this doll looking even more alive!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfffqscwrT
I looked at the doll, which 90% looked just like a real human, in my hold.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgp5KQSgMof
For some time, I couldn't understand what my Master Attendant meant by his words.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrdrmxrfQ1
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhudYvBRd31
「Master Attendant」 :
"Oy! Come out!! I have an urgent business with you!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGV38mgytG
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RzSJC95jb
This airplane designer isn't only an expert at designing airplanes.
He's also skilled at handling machines.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMxO7A2iqA
If we can get his help, then even an ornamental doll would be able to move just like a human.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaQ51lBaSp
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnqtDX8x7v
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeXWCWXCTR
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq22fKEu1H
Toast :
"What's your name? Do you want to drink something? I'm good at cooking."

B-52 : "I am B-52, a Cocktail."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvobrMdVeCb
Toast :
"Then... do you have anything that you want to eat, B-52?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStJ1cH4MII
B-52 :
"A machine doesn't need eat to food."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKO1uYFvee
Toast :
"...... You're not a machine. If you have something that you want to eat, I'll make it for you."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpabOOreI8o
B-52 :
"This machine still has enough energy. Meal isn't required right now."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLNkEpKJHV
He's just like my Master Attendant. He can't just be left alone.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYotswGvvW
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6Y3vd1Jh0
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxZJha3RHe
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahaha! It's complete now! It looks just like the real thing! I'm such a genius!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqwL7It94r
Seeing my Master Attendant laughing proudly, I couldn't help but shake my head and then pushed him to the bathroom.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0KxPfw86A
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."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpHMK2Xg6E
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahahaha, I'm a genius!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoR3awBFQj
Toast :
"Yes, yes, yes. Please hurry and take a bath, Mr. Genius."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ310aQPMBj8
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbR1Fvkl5gX
Toast :
"Next time your Master Attendant falls asleep, put on a blanket on him like this, okay?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHnysZinTo
B-52 :
"Understood. Command received."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcW2moy6fS
Toast :
"You... don't talk like that, please... you're not a machine after all."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JNP9Q4Rc6
B-52 : "Yes."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiAbZUAlXQ
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxTlbWdxzP
Toast :
"That's the one which is a real machine, you're a Food Soul, which isn't so different from a human."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEldgfP2IT
B-52 : "Human?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoikppm2bR6

Five days left before the chivalrous thief will be executed.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzEfHDO8Sc
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM7ZFzEKXn
Then finally, the day to execute the plan arrives.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3oual8Z4V
The numerous citizens whom the chivalrous thief helped surrounded the gallows, worriedly watching over the hero who got captured in order to protect them.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2c9EWejzcg
They didn't know that the real chivalrous thief had changed into clean clothes and left the town.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqmvVkgIEI
The doll that Master Attendant created looked so real that the government officials pushing it to the gallows didn't suspect it at all.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHpaUpMppN
The moment its head got chopped off, a girl whose life were saved with the money that the chivalrous thief brought burst into tears.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ926f6goROO
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76UQmIMoSr
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCwvuksoDm
A fat, mediocre nobleman even fainted because he got so surprised.
Only after his aide pressed his medial cleft that he regained his consciousness.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqiIP57XTw
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGw7XbHlkQ
Their laughter caused the nobleman to become even angrier.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw4U7PYbT6
Official :
"Reporting! We found a signature inside the doll!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQ9rvDEJwf
Nobleman : "...... Signature!?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8srkJuVBiM
Official :
"Yes! It's the name of that famous artisan!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjicsuSxVX
Noble :
"This is an order! Capture that person!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsYDPza9JR
Looking at Master Attendant, who had a triumphant look on him, makes my head ache and reflexively massaged my temple.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHOWWsY7y8
Toast :
"Why did you put your signature in it?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9X1NmsDZiW
「Master Attendant」 :
"It's one of my finest works! Of course I have to write my name on it!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvLR5VCVWh
Toast : ".................."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtlo3hwxXf
「Master Attendant」 :
"Besides...... I can't let someone else take the blame for me."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaoAfT4qit
Luckily, I've already made preparations beforehand, packing enough of our properties and prepared a wagon for us to escape with.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4emS1ytTYi
The scenery at the sides quickly changed, and we'll soon leave this land, which doesn't grant freedom nor fairness to its people.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Tu81NWZf8
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yYKQYVadb
The jailer who helped in replacing the imprisoned thief with the doll.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT03Nynr7L
The maids who blocked the nobles' line of view.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtvGHYpet2
The old man from the fruit vendor who sheltered some people.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx4GVE47MS
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfXL1GsRSe
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'll surrender, so please let them go."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMoklPItTj
Surprisingly, the noble released those people so easily, and then invited him to his mansion.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZE8O1ehBy
Looking at the smile on the obese man's face as he tried to curry favor with Master Attendant makes me feel uneasy.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBlqf0YBoN
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZMZuj4ohE
I tried to stop him, but I was surprised to see the solemnity in his expression.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9m6P35gsR
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvEC69NTie
Politely nodding to him, we exchanged a promise between men.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibFr85lvnJ
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPAYQaPXpw
Just what had happened here?
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwhcVPz5FV
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs48JIy0C80
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoYmBJDJZg
And my Master Attendant's friend I found lying on the ground, already dead.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6sWcOWUj5
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzkBWSZ6DU
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkHPCnNuiK
The only thing I can do then is placing the dead body of his Master Attendant in the coffin, in place of him.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNUzuZabaY
Master Attendant soon returned. After confirming that he's not wounded, I told him about his friend's death.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwky4dfFwlP
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7uDJZJ523
「Master Attendant」 :
"Where is B-52......? His Master Attendant trusted me with a last will for him."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QAFxJJqN8
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVNIkMFER8
「Master Attendant」 :
"None of the previous owners of this Azure Stone ever managed to live out their natural lifespan.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfF4J8yd7w
「Master Attendant」 :
"Lately, I feel a strange uneasiness that I can't quite express with words."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF7cmqUVpm
「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."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGDiiznz7j
「Master Attendant」 :
"But if I die, I want you to give this letter to B-52."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2Uk3bBtZT
After Master Attendant and I hold a memorial service for B-52's Master Attendant together, he once again confined himself in his atelier.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrVvzal2GH
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkAaLQys0t
When he left his place again, he handed over some of the antiques to a noble's attendant.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbIQevT5Yv
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQqAv7eO5L
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaHpQNVVz7
"W-why are we running away? You've given them the antiques, right?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKJiWA6sv3
「Master Attendant」 :
"As if I would do that! It'll be too late if we wait until they realized that I'm tricking them!
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4XJaGoUhZ
「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!"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrjR2SK47c
Looking at Master Attendant's smug grin makes me feel relieved.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQmRtPmmMF
Just like what I thought; my Master Attendant isn't someone who would accept his defeat so easily.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQBFkmJame
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVa0xcKbJDn
But when the furious noble tried to capture Master Attendant, the atelier had been emptied.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2o0IeuFCp
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNV9UbQgiH
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6euOAaY0C
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoSuOT0qo1
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgopJZV16I
Even if one were to lose a precious memento, he would be able to make one which looks just like the real thing.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ksOcoifYW
But what got his name to be well-known, in the truest meaning of it, throughout the land is the incident with gorgeous fireworks.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbeCPe6tgT
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLBtJS0dI5
These unfairness made Toast's Master Attendant, who is a bit childish, to be determined.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A5RCaAfg8
He decided that he will rescue the captured hero from the prison.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2ajYfrRUY
He can make skin and eyeballs that looks just like a human's, but he can't make them move.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCkUmaTBa6
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcuZCAiqdo
The moment the robotic doll's head touched the ground, beautiful fireworks exploded right before the eyes of numerous people present in the plaza.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzJZZj3Ngh
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZEfh8dmho
Not wanting to involve others in it, the counterfeit maker wrote his name in his creation, which could never be rivaled by others.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ5q2br7uk
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0lBgUmwwp
In the end, he got arrested.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7O1wLIWfsz
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUqQIo1aNk
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafZiJ4hXd9
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDkZL6pky0
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yuUXuP9b7
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJXCbdq0RH
「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!!!?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjhui1FUW5
Toast's Master Attendant came out with his usual filthy appearance.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIBkLcPUZZ
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.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dt8tEyLWM
But the two looked at each other, and laughter spilled from both of them.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJPz0kjQJA
That was the first "encounter" of this shop's owner and his dearest wife.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98pYsLKhiS
One beautiful, sunny afternoon. The girl, who then had become a madam, came to the shop while carrying their newly born child.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5y3scu2rV
A few years had passed since she became his Master Attendant's wife, but still she would blush every time she looks at Toast.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvf5AHACtp
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.
