When I noticed, I was standing in the forest. A dark forest with large dense trees lined up and the end cannot be seen as far as you can see. It's dark and there is no undergrowth, so you can see a good range. In the place where I am, a straight giant tree like a conifer is lying down with its roots exposed, so only that space has a hole in the forest. Trees-especially conifers are surprisingly easy to fall down. It is the principle of leverage that the straighter and longer it is, the easier it is to fall.

What happens when a tree collapses and a hole is opened in the forest? Looking up, you can see the sky, and the sunlight is shining there. The sky is a blue sky. Well, what is this situation? Wash your memory-remember your name, your age, and the address you lived in. Using an optical cable that was finally opened in the countryside, he enjoyed a slow life by doing a kitchen garden while doing small business of drawing illustrations on the Internet. Did he go to a nearby mountain to pick edible wild plants and get involved in an accident? For that matter, there is nothing wrong with my body and I am pinning.

After walking in the forest for a while, I get sweaty, but I can't roll up my long-sleeved shirt. Because there are insects and frogs in the forest. I don't know what the situation is, but I'm glad I wore a long-sleeved shirt. Below are the cheap work trousers I always wear and the sneakers I bought at a discount store. In the woods, it would have been perfect if I wore boots ... but I can't help it. Actually, I want to wrap a towel around my neck. If the neck is open, mites can invade from here and eat your back. I'm often taken care of by mites when picking edible wild plants.

lived in the countryside, so even a hospital in a small town is tens of kilometers away. If you are bitten by a bee and have an anaphylactic shock, you will die by the time you reach the hospital. That's the countryside. Even if you walk in the forest, it's flat with no undulations, so it's probably not a mountain. There must have been no such place in the neighborhood where I lived. The flat place was reclaimed in the fields, and the forest was a mountain.

Fu ... "Take a break and look around-nothing. It's good that there is nothing, but it's over when a bear appears. However, there is no water or food as it is, and it is visible that life will end eventually. I'm thirsty, I'm hungry, but nothing, my pocket Flirt, Even if you try it, it's empty... Mushrooms are growing around me, but I haven't seen them all, and-mushrooms have no nutrition at all. This is first, I'm sorry. have to somehow get out of this forest and go out to the village." Look around again. Then, I felt that something white was shining. For the time being, I decided to go there.

"Oh ... what's this?" You will reach a place where something shines. There was a silver armor lying at the base of a large tree with rust floating on it. It's an iron armor called plate armor, like the one worn by medieval knights. Maybe it was devastated by wild animals, but it's a little disjointed. The contents are properly contained, and the skeleton with the chin and neck removed is hello.

"Yeah, I found a corpse." When I looked around while I was scared, the sword had also fallen. A double-edged straight sword-probably a good one with both hands... The blade has spilled and is quite rusty. It seems a little difficult to use even with sharpening. In this case, it seems faster to try again. I'm a little sorry for the Buddha, but I'm going to catch a corpse in case of an emergency. He didn't have anything, but he got a ring and a knife. The knife has a scabbard with a string, so I decided to use it by fixing it to my belt.

Weapons have been managed for the time being, but the problem is prey. But what is this plate armor? I don't know anyone who is doing this kind of drunkenness in my countryside. The structure is not odd. No matter how you look at it, it's not a replica, it's a real thing. Moreover, it has been scratched and has been used for a long time, and there are traces of repairs. As a hobby, if you just play pretend, this will not be the season.

Besides, even this worn-out sword should get caught in the gun sword method. Of course, it's real steel, not an alloy like a imitation sword. What is this situation? Is it a trap? Is someone trying to trap me? But what do you do when you fall into such a non-celebrity country man? You don't have any money to deceive, right? Besides, everything is too big. I've never seen a place like this. This armor and sword shouldn't be free. ――Maybe ... Is it a different world? A real story like a joke? Then, if you say'status open!', It will open!" In response to that word, a shining white board appeared in front of me.

"Seriously came out" "What? Only this? HP or MP? Skills or magic?" Besides, what is Shangri-La? The first thing that comes to my mind is the mail-order site that I always used. I don't understand the meaning. For the time being, I tried to say Shangri-La, but there was no reaction. Well then-let's touch it. The screen has changed. And what was displayed there was the screen of the mail-order site I always used-Shangri La.

Shangri-La is a comprehensive online shopping company that sells everything seriously. From books and perishables to clothing, toys, new and used cars and motorcycles, trucks and heavy equipment. If you pay 1000 yen a month, you can watch e-books and videos as much as you want. Only airplanes and firearms are not sold.―― I thought so, but when I searched recently, I was surprised to find that even business jets were sold. "Seriously? Such an ant? What kind of cheat?" Then, when you touch the item box and the trash can, only a white window is displayed. "Since it's called an item box, can you put things in it?" As a test, I brought the sword that was lying on the side of the armor closer to the screen-it was sucked inside. "Wow!" The screen is--.

[Rusted sword] x 1 ――The display has changed. Then, when I touched the [Rusted Sword] item on that screen, another window opened up.

[Do you want to take it out? 】【*Garbage can*】 -Two choices. When I pressed the eject button, the sword appeared in front of me again. "Oh! This is convenient" As a test, if you select the trash can, it seems to be moved to the trash can window. And below the trash can window is a swirl button. "this is……?" When I pressed the swirl button, another window popped up. It is unknown at this point how much the item box and trash can will fit. For the time being, I somehow understood the specifications. But is it okay to use this as it is? Isn't it creepy to be able to use such a convenient thing for free? What is the price? Isn't it a scam to pay the fee after using it a lot? Or, at the end, the devil comes out and gives you a soul instead of a fee-isn't it a story?

――But, however. Even with my incomprehensible ability, I have to rely on it now-it will run out of physical strength in a few days and starve to death. It will be the same fate as the knight in armor lying here. I'm angry to use this ability, so I'll turn to Shangri-La. When I check the screen, it's the same site I used all the time ... Do you decide to use it anyway? There is a search window at the top of the screen, and when you tap it, the on-screen keyboard is activated. Try typing [*bread*]. --Then, the search results will be displayed normally. Well, it's convenient. It's no different from what I use all the time. [First time limited] Assortment of delicious bread――Select a set of about 10 pieces of bread and put it in the basket. The rest is a drink. 3 packs of delicious milk, It sells for about 1000 yen. Let's make it this guy. If you check the contents of the basket, it's about 2500 yen. Press [*Purchase*]... [*Insufficient balance*]--A sad character string that is displayed ruthlessly.

"Yeah? Money? Well, you need money, but you don't have that? What should I do?" When I was worried, I noticed that there was an item called [Charge] under the insufficient balance. Try pressing [Charge].--Then, a new window was launched. "Put money here ... but what if you don't have money?" The window doesn't answer anything, even if it's boring. I got sick and thrust the sword I had put in the item box earlier. "Take this with you!"

However, the sword was sucked into the window. [Rusted sword] x 1 And below that--. [Do you want to assess / buy? yes? Can you buy it? Is it the price of iron bullion? For the time being, I'll push it. [Assessment result] [Rusted sword purchase price 100,000 yen] "Ichiju Hyaku-Is it 100,000 yen? Is it so expensive?" There are more items under the purchase assessment. [Display details] Can you tell me what kind of assessment it is? This is convenient. [Rusted sword (bully) assessed price 5,000 yen]

[Assessed price 95,000 yen], e? Ruby? Did ruby ​​come somewhere? It may have been rusty, dirty, and even stoned in an invisible place. But I want money right away. I decided to buy it at this price. "Pochitto" It was settled immediately and charged 100,000 yen. "Yeah! But if this is true, I'm not in trouble with food for the time being ..."

　However, at around 100,000 yen, if you use it every day like this, you will only have about a month, right? I really need to go to a remote place and make money. Or, if there is a mine where precious metals and gems come out, you can charge it, but how do you find such a place from now on? -It would be impossible. It can't be helped even if I'm worried, is it rice for the time being? I don't know if it's a lie or a truth, or if it's a joke, but display the basket containing the product and press the [Purchase] button.

--Then. From the empty space, a bag of bread and three packs of milk fell. How about falling a little? If it were a precision machine, it would break, right? Well, rather than that, it's better to silence the bugs in the stomach ... but I'm worried about the skeletonized corpse of the armor in front of me.

"Hmm ..." I thought about it for a while, but I removed the armor from the skeleton corpse and bought a shovel at Shangri-La- 2000 Yen. This is used to dig up the ground, which is called a scoop in my hometown, but it seems to be called a shovel in the JIS standard, so that may be correct. It seems that the name is different depending on the region. Now that I have a new shovel, I dig a hole. The soil is soft because it is humus. Is it okay to have a depth of about 50 cm? When a hole is made, insert a skeleton and backfill. "Please make a Buddhahood" Put the shovel in the item box and put your hands together-I don't think there is a Buddha in this world. God must be different. However, I did my best to thank you. I am grateful to use what I get. The plate armor, which had been peeled off from the skeleton corpse, was also plunged into the purchase window, and an assessment came out immediately.

[Assessment result] [Plate armor (used) purchase price 50,000 yen]. Hmmm, 50,000 yen-it's a pretty good price. Generally speaking, where do you buy it? I do not get it it. The skeleton corpse in front of me was gone, so I tried to eat bread-I could use mail order, so I thought I would like to try it. Buy a cassette gas stove at Shangri-La-2000 Yenya. By the way, I bought a cassette gas, and it costs 300 yen for 3 bottles. It's 100 yen per bottle. Buy a pot with a small lid for 1000 yen. And water-natural water of Nantoka is 1200 yen for 6 bottles of 2L. Finally, 12 curry cup noodle bigs are 2500 yen. "[Purchase]" The thing I bought was falling. Immediately, set the cassette gas on the gas stove, put the pot on it, add water and boil the water. When the water is boiling, put it in cup noodles-wait for 3 minutes. Oh yeah, I have to buy disposable chopsticks. I like the bamboo one-500 yen for 100 sets. With just this, even disposable items can be used for a while. "Hahaha! It's done! This is the taste of civilization!" Eat bread while sipping curry cup noodle big. "Ume!" This is very convenient if you bring it to a camp. Even Everest can climb. I don't know if this is a different world, but for the time being, my stomach was filled.
