「Ne, ne, Colts, like I thought, this is bad. Didn’t everyone firmly said to absolutely not follow him, right.........?」
「It’s all right. Besides, with this distance, that Nii-chan won’t noticed.」
Kazura was walking to the tree copse that led to Japan; 50 meters behind him were 2 children who hidden themselves behind tree to tree while stalking Kazura.
The children was about 5 to 6 years old, the boy who called Colts had eyes that was shining with curiosity, and the other child was a timid girl who pulled his sleeve to stop him.
「B-but, if Kazura found out........」
「That’s why I said it will be all right...... Ah, he enter the tree copse!」
Colts saw the tree copse that Kazura entered, after losing sight of him, Colts hurriedly entered behind him.
Seeing Colts begin to run, the girl at first was hesitant, but then she at once was run, following him.
「What? He’s not here?」
Although Colts immediately followed and entered the tree copse that Kazura entered, once he was inside, he couldn’t see Kazura’s anywhere.
Even if it was called a tree copse, the tree was not that dense. It was strange that Kazura, who just walked there a moment ago, had disappeared without a trace.
「Look, just like what I had said, Kazura-sama is Graysior-sama. If that was not true then you can still see him.」
The girl, who followed Colts, was feeling relieved and then said that to the boy, who was still looking for the missing Kazura. He look at her with an expression of disbelief, but it was true that Kazura had definitely disappeared.
「Is that so? But I can only see him as an ordinary Nii-chan... Myra don’t you also think like that?」
「Mou, you still talking like that? Look, let’s us just return to where everyone else is.」
(TL: Mou. An interjection to express someone exasperation. If a girl use that to you, you better listen.)
The girl, who was called Myra, took Colts’ hand, who was still looking at the inside of the tree copse while grumbling. She then pulled him toward the forest where the villagers were gathering the humus.

Meanwhile, Kazura, who didn’t noticed the children that stalked him, as usual come out from the tree copse and arrived at a stone paved passage.
Then while asking permission from the unchanging crumbled skeleton corpse at the passage, he crossed over to Japan.
「Then, should I go to Home Center again? As it will be a larger transaction than before.」
As usual, Kazura boarded his car, the he drove to the Home Center when he had bought the farming tools previously.
He looked at Japan’s scenery along the way, it was different from the another world’s scenery he just came from several minutes ago. The fields that grew vegetables can be seen spreading out to all direction without any problem.
The car passed that relaxing scenery for about 10 minutes until it arrived at the Home Center. Kazura then gone to Gardening Corner inside the store and then stopped in front of huge pile of fertilizer bags.
「Umm, there is a lot of different fertilizer type. Which kind should I buy?」
In front of fertilizers that were categorized by its purposes, Kazura folded his arm and worried about which kind of fertilizer would be a good choice.
Then he inspect the description that was written in each bag.
「If only they write ‘It’s for other world’s crops’ it would be nice....... I wonder if this fertilizer is for potatoes.」
While Kazura was mumbling and loitering by himself, an employee, that had seen him, approached him.
「Are you looking for something, Sir?」
「Yeah, I looking for a fertilizer for potatoes. Which kind would you recommended?」
「Ah, then this type is good, Sir. Although it smells bad.」
The employee guided Kazura to bags tin which ‘Manure’ was written in it.
It sure had a peculiar smell but the fertilizer's information box said that it can be used for potatoes.
「Do you want to use the fertilizer for Potato ,Sir?」
(TL Funfact!: This word for the Potato in here isガイモ Jagaimo, while the other potato [without capital] was imo芋. Jagaimo refer to Potato [Solanum Tuberosum] while Imo refer to any kind of tuber part of a plant but also can mean potato. Should I change all potato back to tuber?)
「Well...Something like that.」
That small potato that was eaten in that village had different taste than Potato. But a tuber is still a tuber, so he thought that there will be no big difference between them.
「Then, even if this was manure it’s safe to scatter it. Also,......」
「fumufumu....... Then, I'd like to buy the fertilizer that you just explained.」
Kazura heard the employee’s explanation about this and that on raising Potato, so he more or less, had some understanding about the fertilizer that he wanted to buy.
「Ah, yes, thank you very much. Do you want take one bag?」
「No, I like to buy everything that is in here.」
「...... Eh?」
「I wonder how many kg all this will be...」
Kazura was mumbling while gazing at the fertilizers and walked away. The employee that just heard ‘I will buy everything’ was still frozen in place.
「Wa-wait a moment Sir!」
The employee was half-running to Kazura. Kazura wait for a minute until the employee with 「Manager」 written on his chest reach Kazura’s place.
(TL: Senior Staff? Had a better name? The kanji means person in charge, so Manager? I never work in Retailer shops....) (ED: I changed to manager, since yeah, that is the position in retail referring to those in charge of other employees)
「Sir Customer , I think that I heard you want to bought every fertilizer in the store, but...」
「Yes. Everything, please. Also do you have a folding pullcart? I wonder where do you put it.」
「Uumm, even if you intend to buy everything Sir, the manure is about 400 kg..... If it is for Potato, then for a 100 tsubo field then 30kg manure is enough.」
(TL: 1 Tsubo is 3.31 squaremeter. So 100 tsubo is about 331 square meter or 0,331 hectare. What acre? Please, I’m a metric person, so sorry never heard of it...)
Hearing ‘400kg’ from the Senior Staff, Kazura groaned.
The Manager thought that just like what he expected, the customer made a mistake in the amount he needed, but that expectation was terribly wrong.
「I’m sorry, I want to rent this shop’s truck. If possible, I also want a help for loading and unloading the manure.」
The Manager flinched for a moment after hearing Kazura’s word, if he really intent to buy then it can’t be helped.
The other employees that stood near them were in deep amazement before they started to calculate the total amount of fertilizer, while Kazura was led into the place where they displayed the Pullcart.
