The Antique Shop in the Labyrinth City

大場鳩太郎

Updates are irregular. The paperback edition, all three volumes (Famitsu Bunko), is currently on sale. "Hey there, welcome. Welcome to 'The Era of the Old and Good Wizards.' This is your first time here, isn't it? Ah, I see you've just returned from the dungeon. Thank you for your hard work. ...Oh my, so you found a mountain of treasure from the orc bandits' hideout? That was lucky indeed. It looks like what's in that backpack is your haul. You've got a mysteriously significant grimoire, a dragon statue gleaming with gold, a jade ring subtly radiating magical power, and even a dagger with an ominous aura. Quite an impressive collection. ...You say you don't understand the value of any of them? Of course not. Of course not. Items obtained from dungeons are all unidentified goods. Their value can't be determined until we examine them. Well then, let's start the 'appraisal' right away!" This is a story about a certain magical tool shop in a labyrinth city and the dungeon explorers who visit it. The protagonist is, at least nominally, the shop manager. An item otaku and caffeine addict with low blood pressure, he dozes off and gets scolded by the full-body armor guy—he seems like a good-for-nothing at first glance. But rest assured, his appraisal skills are apparently cheat-level! ※The story is a series of short shorts. Each story is complete per item. ※Item introductions (appraisal certificates) appear at the end of each chapter.
