【Toast is full of maturity and has a very high tolerance for others. People feel comfortable and safe around him.】
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpeCfCcEoX
【Often chased around by Sandwich asking to lend him some money.
Toast is a very reliable person.】
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSrg04TVvq
When I opened my eyes, my Master Attendant doesn't show any hint of doubt.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPp9Xo5Q7o
The way he looked at me was as if he's looking at an old friend whom he is pretty familiar with.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8toTCOyOSu
After he looked at me, he gave me an order as if we've been together for a long time already.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6RM528DbS
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hey, big guy! What are you doing, looking around restlessly like that?"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxB5srrIKF
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'm talking to you! Hurry, come here and help me out!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGwFu9GYvT
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZeRVyQ1V0
「Master Attendant」 :
"Why are you standing still like that? Hurry up!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHqO7oRiJt
Toast : "...... Yes, sir."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6msAith4rA
This man capable of sitting and working so casually in the middle of this "mountain of trash" is my Master Attendant.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PzhUaH3MR
He has a great talent in making counterfeits.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNPHAWaeeF
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSJua22yLc
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7sqB2j1vU
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7And9EswZ8
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgN3qb0O0s
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomuQmU76dl
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTJ8IWjces
And now, what got his hands tied is the biggest, most difficult challenge in his life.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqGTmj4AVN
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjKWm1agbc
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YyrUz0lAv
The doll looked almost alive as little by little it's approaching completion by Master Attendant's skilled hands.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VFbf5wJC9
Even the pale blood vessels under the skin is looking nothing different than that of a human's.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZEeOgmlhV
Just as I thought that the doll is finally finished, he threw that doll to me, and grabbed his toolbox.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfuAIIxNtu
「Master Attendant」 :
"Let's go! We'll go to my friend's place! He can make this doll looking even more alive!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMP0NpZxcfq
I looked at the doll, which 90% looked just like a real human, in my hold.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorF68SFEoS
For some time, I couldn't understand what my Master Attendant meant by his words.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFHpwg15IC
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L1TNWVO2I
「Master Attendant」 :
"Oy! Come out!! I have an urgent business with you!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDIgrLKuiU
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡie4ytf6HmA
This airplane designer isn't only an expert at designing airplanes.
He's also skilled at handling machines.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9x89wLvt8z
If we can get his help, then even an ornamental doll would be able to move just like a human.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgnOv2gGmQ
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJFDMSyBSP
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVokexTLxd
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6EmPLxiVW
Toast :
"What's your name? Do you want to drink something? I'm good at cooking."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCH2GSTZXXH

B-52 : "I am B-52, a Cocktail."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMX48B5dsO
Toast :
"Then... do you have anything that you want to eat, B-52?"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVnVJPw1XO
B-52 :
"A machine doesn't need eat to food."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAN8puO7z4O
Toast :
"...... You're not a machine. If you have something that you want to eat, I'll make it for you."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TdqRpFksp
B-52 :
"This machine still has enough energy. Meal isn't required right now."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJtAxQiGW2
He's just like my Master Attendant. He can't just be left alone.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4mUUHOGwT
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4UxHoJgKd
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzKJLkDFM1
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahaha! It's complete now! It looks just like the real thing! I'm such a genius!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGXTiOYZ8k
Seeing my Master Attendant laughing proudly, I couldn't help but shake my head and then pushed him to the bathroom.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimtHQwZ0RY
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."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekosjcFuXN
「Master Attendant」 :
"Hahahaha, I'm a genius!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqLzau6yJl
Toast :
"Yes, yes, yes. Please hurry and take a bath, Mr. Genius."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryjczhR810
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡure8ekGBvi
Toast :
"Next time your Master Attendant falls asleep, put on a blanket on him like this, okay?"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvl6bOriHhq
B-52 :
"Understood. Command received."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJRxe15HCe
Toast :
"You... don't talk like that, please... you're not a machine after all."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOIlB8a1wy
B-52 : "Yes."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkoO4PAUus
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsdNepibtT
Toast :
"That's the one which is a real machine, you're a Food Soul, which isn't so different from a human."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEZSOJqiQh
B-52 : "Human?"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE05NcigxN2

"Yeah, That's right.."

Five days left before the chivalrous thief will be executed.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQQyfgAeBe
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡts3qdszqjt
Then finally, the day to execute the plan arrives.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Kp491G4mb
The numerous citizens whom the chivalrous thief helped surrounded the gallows, worriedly watching over the hero who got captured in order to protect them.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmARIglqLl6
They didn't know that the real chivalrous thief had changed into clean clothes and left the town.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBXkZzGrOX
The doll that Master Attendant created looked so real that the government officials pushing it to the gallows didn't suspect it at all.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HteLKxaDJ
The moment its head got chopped off, a girl whose life were saved with the money that the chivalrous thief brought burst into tears.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZp1bLNNq6s
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfwVOUwKsI
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNR073LQLv
A fat, mediocre nobleman even fainted because he got so surprised.
Only after his aide pressed his medial cleft that he regained his consciousness.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIH8U8zrq0
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYadTR94PgC
Their laughter caused the nobleman to become even angrier.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IJDVghDGN
Official :
"Reporting! We found a signature inside the doll!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAc3zUMXcg
Nobleman : "...... Signature!?"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw1HnJXZmo
Official :
"Yes! It's the name of that famous artisan!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nKES7RthM
Noble :
"This is an order! Capture that person!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOfx6CBmuH
Looking at Master Attendant, who had a triumphant look on him, makes my head ache and reflexively massaged my temple.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jam2w404Q
Toast :
"Why did you put your signature in it?"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEz3NvF7yb
「Master Attendant」 :
"It's one of my finest works! Of course I have to write my name on it!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKM1a7M3Dwy
Toast : ".................."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaXkn8ejno
「Master Attendant」 :
"Besides...... I can't let someone else take the blame for me."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MFUsmLlIH
Luckily, I've already made preparations beforehand, packing enough of our properties and prepared a wagon for us to escape with.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2baUbqBTl
The scenery at the sides quickly changed, and we'll soon leave this land, which doesn't grant freedom nor fairness to its people.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLI5pvY7WB
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWOL0EH5du
The jailer who helped in replacing the imprisoned thief with the doll.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPaKa6KW0g
The maids who blocked the nobles' line of view.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUg47n3iNf
The old man from the fruit vendor who sheltered some people.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQ8jkHRWev
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxfGEMteTM
「Master Attendant」 :
"I'll surrender, so please let them go."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bKybwQufR
Surprisingly, the noble released those people so easily, and then invited him to his mansion.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs0qk5wCOL
Looking at the smile on the obese man's face as he tried to curry favor with Master Attendant makes me feel uneasy.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHoAwtzOZu
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxAvFSioQC
I tried to stop him, but I was surprised to see the solemnity in his expression.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9dpt4Nrl7
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AlfdCke52
Politely nodding to him, we exchanged a promise between men.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Zk3R0XE6f
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTL8HYm0BDi
Just what had happened here?
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDUFTFLeZN
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ695V5CwZvq
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdYmRl52Jy
And my Master Attendant's friend I found lying on the ground, already dead.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbV20qbrJ0
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTghYeEtFQ
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5G63HFrP0
The only thing I can do then is placing the dead body of his Master Attendant in the coffin, in place of him.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNz29rRaUH
Master Attendant soon returned. After confirming that he's not wounded, I told him about his friend's death.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hJ2nqGKER
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOgJr5qjxB
「Master Attendant」 :
"Where is B-52......? His Master Attendant trusted me with a last will for him."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntFIXovvLE
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSNCsVuccm
「Master Attendant」 :
"None of the previous owners of this Azure Stone ever managed to live out their natural lifespan.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59ePr7dean
「Master Attendant」 :
"Lately, I feel a strange uneasiness that I can't quite express with words."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBPrxwJIR1
「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."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tnZWLDIDY
「Master Attendant」 :
"But if I die, I want you to give this letter to B-52."
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWEBan2RsM
After Master Attendant and I hold a memorial service for B-52's Master Attendant together, he once again confined himself in his atelier.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo6nDqkVJx
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtzTEFFvQC
When he left his place again, he handed over some of the antiques to a noble's attendant.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrO6z3pism8
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lV8ltVjER
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fSlrse44d
"W-why are we running away? You've given them the antiques, right?"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEusFDsNMH
「Master Attendant」 :
"As if I would do that! It'll be too late if we wait until they realized that I'm tricking them!
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgLUk9KkuF
「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!"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmb0OZaTCre
Looking at Master Attendant's smug grin makes me feel relieved.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVznYvU8xI
Just like what I thought; my Master Attendant isn't someone who would accept his defeat so easily.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpJXrO83wJ
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fDw8IVbgT
But when the furious noble tried to capture Master Attendant, the atelier had been emptied.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wE4SPxTtd
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1sq0zAQrN
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OriRJbVWL
He peeked his head out, and after confirming that our pursuers had long passed through where we were, he turned around and asked..
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqIQ64gmkP

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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2Sl3laByz
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XtyfBKLHG
Even if one were to lose a precious memento, he would be able to make one which looks just like the real thing.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHjYiecMYC
But what got his name to be well-known, in the truest meaning of it, throughout the land is the incident with gorgeous fireworks.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDMl2nsVbh
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfRLu0mXvr
These unfairness made Toast's Master Attendant, who is a bit childish, to be determined.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ii8mWx0L7
He decided that he will rescue the captured hero from the prison.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HAba2zcE5
He can make skin and eyeballs that looks just like a human's, but he can't make them move.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXulVIz8Eg1
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Y5ynJA3Si
The moment the robotic doll's head touched the ground, beautiful fireworks exploded right before the eyes of numerous people present in the plaza.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn13wJCD4TK
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWUwdi1kE8
Not wanting to involve others in it, the counterfeit maker wrote his name in his creation, which could never be rivaled by others.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwuliaI3jf
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuDdajzSVA
In the end, he got arrested.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhXwHQjUYj
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nO8FpJnC3
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv8O2DlDk9
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkGzsDHBoV
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fbkUS736i
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCvoFPfqqQ
「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!!!?"
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBlUPmJAiX
Toast's Master Attendant came out with his usual filthy appearance.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBG8qNofrj
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.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rC8d6dKyx
But the two looked at each other, and laughter spilled from both of them.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30noQEnD43
That was the first "encounter" of this shop's owner and his dearest wife.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMW7MSg0Qd
One beautiful, sunny afternoon. The girl, who then had become a madam, came to the shop while carrying their newly born child.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzTnCDdTb3
A few years had passed since she became his Master Attendant's wife, but still she would blush every time she looks at Toast.
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9ZnoEFfB4
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.
