READ WEBNOVEL Chapter 67 – Deposit.
Nahida went to the meeting room together with Rimuru, and Shuna stayed in the room to listen to what they had to talk about. Nahida then started talking about the new building he wanted to serve as a deposit.
"A deposit... Yes, that makes sense. It's good to store a lot of products."
"But Rimuru-sama... We don't have space to build another building next to the market. There are too many houses in that area. We can't make the residents move."
"Nahida, is it okay if the deposit is far from the market?"
"Yeah, sure. The only thing that matters is that it's big and has good security. Although I don't think anything will stop Milim from breaking into any place in this city." Nahida smiled bitterly.
"Don't worry about her. She won't steal anything anymore. But then... I think this is a good area." Rimuru was holding a map of Tempest. It was the first time Nahida had seen that map.
The map wasn't faithful to the city as it didn't show where the buildings were, but it was still very helpful. Rimuru was pointing to an area opposite the market.
Two blocks away.
"I don't think it will be a problem; It could be in this area. But won't it disturb the residents if it's built there?"
"No need to worry. Most houses are built in another area, so there's no problem. Shuna, arrange it."
"Yes, Rimuru-sama," Shuna replied with a smile. Nahida smiled with satisfaction and then started talking about the employees.
"It doesn't matter what race; they just need to work hard. I'll give them a good salary, so there's no need to worry."
"There are plenty of people who can take these jobs, so you don't have to worry about that. I'll choose the best people for the job."
"Thank you very much, Rimuru. I didn't know what would become of me without you."
"Don't exaggerate."
"Oh, and about our exchange, I'm going out tomorrow to buy everything for you. You wanted another TV, video game, and more games, right?"
"That's right."
"All right. I'll go to my hotel now and get some rest. I'm tired. Even raising my level and increasing my stamina weren't enough. I guess I'll have to work on it a bit more."
"That's right, I didn't ask you about magic... Did you manage to use magic?"
"I haven't trained once in that period, but..." Nahida tried to feel his magic and use magic again. He closed his eyes to concentrate, but he couldn't feel anything. He couldn't use magic.
"Yes, I can't..." He said to Rimuru.
"I see. Well, I'm sure you'll be able to use it at some point." Rimuru tried to cheer Nahida up, but he just sighed and shrugged. Even if it were impossible for him, he wouldn't mind.
However, he felt that he should try a little harder in the future.
Once his new business ran, he promised to focus on learning magic and raising his level. He hadn't focused enough in the past.

The deposit was already being built, and the people who would work in the market had already been selected. Nahida was excited to open his new market, but he would only do it the next day.
He would use the day to rest. He would take the opportunity to buy what Rimuru had asked him for: a television, a video game, and some new games.
He left his hotel in the afternoon and took the train to the center of Tokyo. The bullet train was fast, but it was a long journey. When he arrived in central Tokyo, the first thing he did was get a hotel.
Nahida would be there all day, so he needed a room.
"Right, here's the money." Nahida paid for the room and took the card to open the door. But he didn't even go to his room. He went to a big store near the hotel to buy everything he wanted.
It was a big store.
"I'm going to get a television even bigger than last time, another PlayStation, and a lot of PlayStation games and also Nintendo Switch games." Nahida chose everything and paid a very high price.
Nahida asked for the television delivered in the afternoon of the next day when he was home. Not just the television, he asked the store to deliver everything. They took his address, and Nahida left the store.
"Now that everything is bought, I can have some fun." Nahida headed towards Akihabara so he could take a look at the new releases and also have some fun in an arcade.
He spent long hours enjoying himself until night fell.
"I'm hungry. Hm?" Nahida was walking with his hands in his pockets through Akihabara when he saw a strange woman being followed into an alley. Nahida clenched his fists and headed that way.
He reached the alley and began to peek.
"That son of a bitch." Nahida's blood boiled.
The hooded man grabbed the woman's neck and pressed her against the wall. He was preparing to grab her breast when Nahida decided to intervene using his skills.
Physical skills.
At last, his level increase had done some good. He approached the man in an instant. With one swift movement, he squeezed the arm the man was using to hold the woman until he broke his bone and then kicked him in the waist.
The man cried out in pain and fell unconscious to the ground. Nahida had used a lot of force.
"Haaa~~ Haaa~~" The woman was breathing hard, without oxygen.
"Are you all right? What?" Nahida's eyes widened.
