The only exception is probably Fujiwara no Mokou, who claims to be the leader of the Human Village Self-Defense Corps, but actually looks more like a delinquent girl in the daytime.
The girl would occasionally bring some oddly shaped items, which had decent resale value in stores, and exchange them for some daily necessities from him.
For example, barbecue spices such as cumin, Sichuan peppercorns, spicy seasoning, and chili oil.
Once, he rushed back to get a pot and two bottles of hot pot base, but I don't know what he cooked...
"Guest, is there anything you need?"
Snapping out of his reverie, Bai Ye narrowed his eyes as he looked at the new "guest" before him.
tick tock...tick tock...
"Hiss~ Roar~~" (Food?)
Bai Ye's face immediately fell.
Besides trading, the dimensional shop also has some amazing features, such as built-in language translation...
This is also why Byakuya was able to communicate with Dave and Mokou.
So Bai Ye understood the strange-looking new guest's roar—
While ordering food, you're staring at yourself with drool dripping from your mouth. Am I, Bai, so weak that I can't lift a knife, or are you some kind of alien that's gotten too cocky?
Relying on his ability to grant invincible defense to anything in the store, Bai Ye gave an invincible buff to everything in the dimensional shop except for the alien, and then swung his sledgehammer down on the alien's head.
boom~
The alien was a bit confused.
boom~
Several cracks appeared on the alien's skull.
Boom boom boom!
The alien's health bar mysteriously disappeared.
With a cold expression, Bai Ye recovered the alien's corpse for five hundred Origin Coins. He then smiled and looked at his new customer, who had walked out of the teleportation portal just after the alien, staring dumbfounded at his one-stop service of disposing of the body and erasing evidence...
"Oh, is there anything you need, sir?"
"Sorry to bother you, I didn't see anything!" After glancing at the large hammer in Bai Ye's hand, the other party turned around and walked back to the teleportation portal.
white night:"……"

They actually left?
Looking at the store space that had suddenly become empty, Bai Ye's lips twitched.
What the hell is going on here?!
However, today seems to be a day of good fortune for Baiye.
Before he could put away the hammer, the portal lit up again.
This time, a white-haired woman carrying a flag and wearing black armor emerged from the portal.
"Welcome to the Dimensional Shop, sir. What can I do for you?"
"need?"
The woman's lips twitched, and with a flick of her wrist, a flame erupted from beneath Bai Ye's feet amidst a somewhat neurotic laugh.
white night:"……"
Holy crap, is this never going to end?
So you can't have a normal customer?
Enraged, Bai Ye didn't say much. He jogged a few steps, holding the hammer upside down, and came to the woman's head, delivering a powerful blow.
When~
"Not bad." The white-haired woman nodded, looking at the large hammer that was obscured by her flag.
Although the force wasn't great, it was enough to block his own flames, and the force he had added to the flag, which he intended to use to bounce him off, had no effect on him at all...
Does being a woman mean you belittle yourself?
"Heroic Spirit opposite me, I admit your strength is not bad, but if you underestimate my strength just because I am a woman, then you are only fit to stay in the Hall of Heroes and retire! So, if you don't want to be burned to ashes by me, then show me your full strength!"
Heroic spirits...?
I vaguely remember this job; it seems to be from some anime, right?
When his roommate recommended it to him in his past life, he didn't pay much attention. He never expected that he would encounter a living Heroic Spirit after transmigrating...
What was the name of that anime again? Was it all the fault of the time?
Anyway, it's just a name, so it doesn't really matter.
"Those who can become Heroic Spirits are all famous figures in history, right? What's your name, Woman?"
"Hmph, what an unpleasant title." The white-haired woman raised an eyebrow. "However, since you were able to withstand my attack, I'll make an exception and let you know my name..."
"Listen up! I am Joan of Arc Alter, a world-destroying witch born from the flames of vengeance, destined to destroy France!"
"Joan of Arc...really?"
"Don't compare me to that cowardly and foolish woman...!"
when!
"As expected of a Heroic Spirit, even the armor he wears is so tough."
Looking at the decorative helmet on Jeanne Alter's head, which had withstood a blow from his hammer without a single scratch, Bai Ye nodded with admiration.
Hmm... To avoid someone suddenly barging in, after putting away the weapon that was either a gun or a flag, Bai Ye dragged her to the guest room of the Dimensional Shop—heaven knows why the Dimensional Shop would have such an oddly placed guest room.
Speaking of which, I remember there was a Command Seal in the anime that controlled Heroic Spirits. How was that supposed to be drawn?
Looking left and right, Bai Ye's eyes fell on the flag that he had put away.
The pattern on it is quite unique.
……
who am I?
"I am Joan of Arc, or more precisely, Joan of Arc Alter. I am the avenger born from the flames after my predecessor was burned to death by those ignorant people. I am a witch who vows to destroy France!"
where am i from?
"I don't know where it came from. The last thing I remember is passing through a strange door and seeing a heroic spirit wielding a giant hammer?"
Where am I going?
"Of course, we'll go back to France and take revenge on those who burned our predecessors alive!"
That's right, revenge!
I barely opened my eyes, and the first thing I saw was that hammer-wielding hero, with that smug, fake smile on his face... Where's my sword? Where's my flag?
"Can't find it, right?"
"..."
Soul pale!
"Actually, I wanted to say yesterday that it was a misunderstanding, that I'm not a Heroic Spirit, but I can't say now that I have nothing to do with you."
Bai Ye raised the back of his hand, showing off the blood-red pattern that he had spent one Origin Coin to carve.
That was the same dragon witch emblem as the Joan of Arc flag, which was quite different from this character's personality, except that the color was changed to red.
"No, you're lying to me. There's a connection between a Heroic Spirit and their Master. I haven't sensed any connection between us!"
"Uh...maybe it's because I'm not a traditional magician?"
"I see."
"..."
I was just trying to make a joke, and you actually believed it?!
Chapter 009 My name is Rin... I am Accelerator!
Three days after Byakuya accepted a Servant as his Master.
At the counter, Fujiwara no Mokou drank the papaya milk that Byakuya had kindly gifted her, looking on with suspicion.
"I said, where did you snatch this innocent woman from? This place doesn't allow bullying of men and women."
Following Mokou's gaze, there was Jeanne d'Arc, looking rather awkward as she mopped the floor... well, Jeanne d'Arc in a darker state.
“As an honest and upright shop manager, how could I possibly do such a thing?” Bai Ye opened her eyes wide and looked at Black Jeanne seriously: “My dear Jeanne, you agree, right?”
“…Yes!” Jeanne Alter squeezed out a single word through gritted teeth.
Fujiwara no Mokou: "..."
I always felt that I saw the shadow of a very familiar rabbit in this woman named Joan of Arc.
Joan of Arc still had some resistance, but the rabbit had completely given up on treatment.
However, if Byakuya is serious, it won't be too long before she becomes Jeanne Alter (the submissive character in the game)...
Wait, why am I able to accept this so calmly now?
It's all that damned woman's fault!
Thinking this, Fujiwara no Mokou looked at Byakuya, who was chatting with her while typing on the mouse and keyboard, seemingly doing nothing, and felt inexplicably annoyed.
Another homebody!
"Hey, you! We have guests. Is it really okay to be so casual?"
"Guest?" Bai Ye lifted his head from in front of the screen, looked around, and then realized what he meant: "Stop messing around, Mokou, when did you change your role to 'guest'?"
“I’m talking about this…” Mokou shook her head, pointed to the counter, and turned to walk out.
Today is sunny and the weather is perfect; it's the perfect day to go and cause trouble for a certain woman.
……
In the Dimensional Shop, after Mokou left, Byakuya looked at Jeanne Alter, who was angrily poking the floor with a mop.
"Is there really someone?"
Black Jeanne glanced at him sideways: "Can't you see for yourself whether there's anyone around or not!"
Huh?
Byakuya raised his hand to indicate the Command Seal (fake) on the back of his hand.
"Yes, that's right, we have guests."
Images from doujinshi featuring the phrase "sit on top and do it yourself" flashed through her mind, causing Black Jeanne's face to turn pale and her to retreat in defeat.
While marveling at how foolish this woman was, Bai Ye was also conflicted...
Did I go too far?
"Hmph! ╯^╰!"
Oh, you dare to hum?
It turns out I was just doing my duty.
With a wicked smile, Bai Ye stuck his head out from behind the counter, and sure enough, he saw a little white-haired brat standing in front of the counter, his small face full of humiliation and suppressed anger as he stared intently at him.
"I'm so sorry. Due to some objective reasons, I accidentally overlooked the presence of the customer. On behalf of Dimensional Store, I would like to express my sincerest apologies to you."
"Eh? This... I..."
Perhaps it was the first time he had encountered such a situation, but a hint of panic appeared on the white-haired child's face.
"Well... I'm Bai Ye, the manager here. May I ask your name, young guest?"
