It seems like we can find it by showing what’s written on this memo to the shop clerk.”
“Then let’s head over to the electronic shop over there!”
Saying that, I use my finger to point at the huge electronic shop that appeared on my sights as soon as I exited the station. “……S-So this is what an electronic shop of Japan with economic power looks like.”
Xenovia mutters while having sweat on her forehead. We are taking a rest on the bench at the uppermost floor of the building after entering the store and having looked through the building. All of us are astonished and speechless at the unfamiliar scenery of this electronic shop, and we have our heads spinning because of it. T-This is amazing…… There are big and thin televisions all lined up, and something that looks like speakers are emitting out sounds from every direction…… The small digital cameras, the washing machines with high specs, and the shiny lighting equipment that we see every day looks like something from a different world. That’s right. We were raised in a Church since we were young. We lived in a world which is distant from a world like this with technology. W-Well, we use television and computers at Church, but if we compare it with Tokyo with the most advanced home technology……
I hear that tourists from all over the world come to Akihabara; however I did not expect this. I’m actually shocked. We are having a shock from their culture simply from having a look through a single store. “D-D-D-Donki, Don Quijote……”
Asia-san starts to sing the song that was being played inside the shop while having her eyes spin! “Asia, get a grip of yourself! This is only the first battle! How can you go down this quick!? We still haven’t finished our shopping yet!”
Xenovia tries to get Asia-san’s consciousness back by shaking her shoulders. “……Donpen-kun is so cute. Donpen-kun……”
“Asia! Uuu! No, Asiaaaaaa!”
First, let’s drink some cold drinks to calm down. Maybe Asia-san calmed down since she drank her juice, so she says it again. “Let’s at least buy the thing for Otou-sama, or else it seems like we won’t last.”
What Asia-san said is appropriate. For Asia-san, Xenovia, and me that were raised in a Church, maybe this Holy Land is too sudden for us. It feels like we will be taken away by the mysterious power residing in this land if we don’t move more quickly. We refreshed our attitude, and went downstairs once again. We head towards the area where there are many televisions in order to buy the product for Ise-kun’s father. We accomplish one of our shopping tasks safely by showing the memo to the shop clerk. After that, we went to a lower floor, and each of us looks around the mysterious machines while being nervous. “Look at this, Asia, Irina!”
Xenovia is looking at a box that seems to contain a small machine while having her whole body shake. “W-What’s wrong, Xenovia?”
When Asia-san and I ask Xenovia suspiciously, she answers us while swallowing her saliva. “T-Take a look at this…… It seems like you can bake bread……just by using this machine box!”
—! Asia-san and I became speechless at Xenovia’s words. ……Y-You must be joking! I can’t come to believe that so suddenly……
However, by looking at the panel where it is explaining about this machine, it really does seem like you can bake bread simply using this……
“I-It can’t be…… I can’t believe you can bake bread without using a pot…… The bakery will lose their jobs……”
Asia-san says it with a shivering voice while covering her mouth with her hands. I check the name for it. –Home bakery! A bakery in your home! Such a straightforward name! “Home bakery! I never imagined for Japan that is so fixated in food will go this far……!”
“I-It seems like it will bake it if you simply put the ingredients in it!”
“I wonder how many lost sheep would be saved from this…… So this is the technology of Japan that is going far ahead in technology……! It far surpasses the technology of alchemy!”
Asia-san, Xenovia, and I, put our hands together at the spot. “ “ “Oh, Lord! With this, many of our believers would be saved!” ” ”
I’m deeply moved that my mind went to the Heaven! So this is the Holy Land! Amazing! I really am starting to think that this is a Holy Land! “I want this. The price is……ngh.”
Xenovia had her eyes sparkling, but she mumbles after she looks at the price. The price is approximately thirty thousand yen. It’s expensive! We are basically high school students, so such prices like this will be too much for us. I am an Angel, but my salary is no different than that of a female high school student that is working part-time. It also seems like Asia-san and Xenovia that are doing Devils job is no different from me. The three of us check our wallets. All of us put on a stern look. “……I bought new clothes and shoujo manga the other day, and more importantly, I don’t have that much money left……”
“I also bought equipment for my training……mu.”
It seems like we can’t rely on Asia-san and Xenovia’s budget. I’m no different from these two, I think. I ended up buying the new goods in Heaven with my own expenses, and I also bought equipment that I can put on display for my room, so my money is gone……
Oh! T-That’s it! M-Maybe, this is it! This magnificent idea flashes inside my head! “I think I can buy this using this as the expenses for Heaven’s use! I’m sure Michael-sama would forgive me if I use it in order to save even a single lost sheep if possible!”
I use my mobile phone right away to call Heaven directly. After exchanging several words with the person in charge, I make peace sign towards the other two. “They said I can use the Heaven’s credit card as an exception!”
Xenovia and Asia-san cries when they heard that! “Is such thing possible! ?”
“It must be Michael-sama’s compassion!”
I can only use the Heaven’s credit card when I need to buy something I really need, but I received an approval for today as an exception! Oh, Michael-sama! Such a merciful heart he has! I have tears running down, and then I pray towards the Heaven and Michael-sama. Michael-sama, please watch! I will make many types of bread with this home bakery, and I will save the lost sheep! After that, I received a harsh call from Heaven where they said, “I’m entrusting the expenses for the ingredients to you”. The path for our faith is hard! However, I’m going to work hard for it! “Now then, next is the shopping for vice president Akeno.”
Xenovia looks at the memo while carrying the huge box for the home bakery so easily. I feel strong when I have someone with strength at a time like this. That’s because she can be of help when we suddenly buy something. “Yup. It seems like she wants a cosplay costume.”
“Cosplay? Is Akeno-san fascinated with cosplay lately?”
I tilt my head at Xenovia’s words. Akeno-san— that is referring to Himejima Akeno-san, and for Asia-san and Xenovia, she is their senior Devil who is in the same group as them. She is a Japanese beauty that has silky black hair, and she has magnificent proportions.
