Trucker, upgrade

TL/ED: Bogdi

“38 Green Goblins, 29 Fighter Goblins, 15 Big Goblins, 5 Goblin Ogre 5, and 1 Goblin the Demon have been defeated. Level has been increased. [Medium Missile] has been unlocked. ［Large Missile] has been unlocked. ［Tomahawk] has been unlocked. ［Railgun] has been unlocked. ［Gatling Gun] has been unlocked. ［Laser Cutter] has been unlocked. New [Drive-in] item has been unlocked.”

I knew this much had been unlocked. Well, there are pieces of meat all over the place, and we got rid of some goblins that looked dangerous. But what’s [Drive-In]?

“A new item [Drive-In] has been unlocked. Would you like an explanation?”

“Yes, please.”

“Yes, Master. ［Drive-In] allows you to spend your points on shopping. Coffee, nutritional drinks, newspapers, comic books and food and beverages such as alcohol and snacks.”

“Seriously……?”

“Yes. But there is one rule.”

“Oh…”

I wonder what it is. I feel that the rules in such cases are usually not good. Perhaps the truck might not be functioning properly or something severe like that.

“If you drive within eight hours of consuming alcohol, 5,000 points will be deducted as punishment and you will lose all functions of the truck for 72 hours. So, please do not drink and drive.”

Ah …………………, I see.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

“Okay, I need status on the truck.”

“Understood.”

“Okay, I bought everything but the cushions!”

“Understood, ……… Installation complete.”

Then, with a vibration, the back of the truck changed.

There was a new door in the back. It looks like the living room is beyond it.

“Okay, let’s go, Mireina!!”

“I’ve gotten used to being surprised by now….”

Me and Mireina excitedly opened the back door to …… huh?

“………”

“………”

There was nothing there.

There was no furniture, no chairs, no tables, no kitchen, not even running water. Just a large, wide, deep room. …… What’s going on? Then I heard Tama’s voice from the driver’s seat.

“The living room, shower and bedroom have been purchased. I’ll update the equipment list.”

Me and Mireina looked at each other and hurried back to the driver’s seat.

Then we were surprised to see the new items displayed on the windshield.

“Seriously? ………”

“Oh, um, what’s a fridge?”

I had to put aside the cute Mireina’s question for the time being and decide what to buy.

To be honest, I want to improve the kitchen because I want to eat Mireina’s cooking. And since Mireina is a girl, I want to make sure she has a shower. I want her to have a soft bed to sleep in. It’s all about her, isn’t it?

“……… Okay!”

I’ve made up my mind. First, let’s enhance it little by little.

So, I made the following purchases.

I’ve spent 10,000 points, but for now we can live a normal life.

I’ll be able to eat Mireina’s home-cooked meals as long as I keep the kitchen well-equipped. After all, food is important.

“Okay, next we’ll strengthen the vehicle body.”

“Understood.”

We never know what might happen, so let’s reinforce the vehicle.

The more prepared we are, the better. There will be monsters in this other world, so it’s best to be cautious.

Well, that’s about it.

I have no idea how great this is, but I guess it’s good enough for now. If there is any damage to the vehicle, it can be further enhanced.

“Alright, next is the [Drive-In]!”

“Understood.”

Oh, my goodness, this is so good.

These are all the ones I like. I think I’ll stop drinking and have some tea.

“So, what do you want, Mireina?”

“Uh, well, I’ll leave it to Kota-san.”

“Okay, so apple juice is fine? And potato chips for snacks?”

“Yes.”

I’ll have tea and crackers. I used to bite into a cracker while driving to work. I especially love the combination of salted rice crackers and tea. When I didn’t eat lunch, I often used this combination to get through the day.

“I’ll take that, please.”

“Yes, Master. ……… purchase complete.”

“Oh !?”

“Cha !?”

A plastic bag popped out from inside the dashboard.

Inside was a nostalgic Japanese package. It contained my rice crackers, tea, Mireina’s potato chips and bottled apple juice.

“What a strange material this …… is. I’ve never seen it before. …… How do I drink it?”

“You twist off this cap and it goes …… like this.”

“Wow, that’s amazing! And it smells …… good.”

“Try it. It’s delicious.”

“Yes. Thank you for the drink. ………”

Mireina put her mouth on the bottle and drank. Then her eyes widened and she looked at me with a blank stare. I was a little surprised.

“It’s …delicious! I’ve never had anything like this!”

“Haha, eat some potato chips then. They’re good.”

“Potato Chips ……”

I opened the bag, took out a potato chip and put it in my mouth. The crunchy and salty taste spread and I drank my tea.

Mireina also ate a potato chip and began to mindlessly munch on it. She seemed to like it.

I took a bite of my own rice cracker and returned to my original goal.

“Okay, we should leave after checking our rooms. Let’s take the goblin treasure and go to the Kingdom of Zenimouke.”

“Whew, whew!”

Mireina, chewing on a potato chip, was quite cute.
