"Sister, can you give me another wand?"
Hulim handed the wand back to the clerk.
"Is this handle too heavy? Sure, I'll change it for you right away."
The clerk noticed the difficulty Hulim was struggling to wave the wand and immediately agreed to replace it.
Hulim thought for a moment and then said, "Shopkeeper, do you have any wands that won't affect the activation of any other magic attribute? Well... I don't want the wand to affect the practice of a certain attribute."
The clerk who was about to leave with his wand stopped.
"Hmm, is that so... Okay, I'll look for it for you, but I'm not sure if I can find it."
"It doesn't matter if you can't find it. Thank you very much anyway."
"Since the guests have no objection, please allow me to leave for a while."
The clerk returned to the interior of the store, carrying the wand.
After the clerk left, Collette spoke up, "Indeed, finding the right wand for all three attributes is a real challenge... My apologies, Hullim-san. As a single-attribute magician, I overlooked the impact of a single-attribute wand on the other attributes."
"Teacher Collette, you don't have to apologize. I should actually thank you. If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have even thought about buying a wand. And you even came with me to buy a wand. Honestly, I know nothing about wands. Even if I had entered the store, I wouldn't have known where to start."
"...Hulim is too modest. I, as a teacher, feel completely useless. Even before, you even boasted that you could be my reference. As a teacher, I feel ashamed."
"No, that's not true at all! Ms. Collette is a very good teacher, I can guarantee that!"
"Ahaha, is that so? I'm a good teacher..."
Collette touched her cheek sheepishly. Even she felt a hint of shy joy at this moment.
"Sorry to have kept you two guests waiting."
At this time, the clerk returned from the store.
In her hand she held a... well, it looked like a wooden wand.
"Oh, I didn't expect to find such a wand. Maybe no one wanted it before, so I kept it under the counter and forgot about it."
"Miss, what kind of wand is this? I don't think I've seen this kind of material before."
Collette was the first to raise the question.
The clerk smiled and explained, "My dear guests, this wand is made from the torso of a Mist Swamp Dryad. Since Mist Swamp Dryads are relatively rare, magical tools made from their body materials are also uncommon."
"The Mist Swamp Dryad has a characteristic: it possesses a similar degree of resistance to magic of all attributes. Therefore, materials made from its trunk will not be repelled by magic of any attribute!"
After hearing the clerk's explanation, Collette's eyes lit up.
"Oh~! Really?! There actually are wands like this! I've only heard of the Dryad, but I never thought I'd actually see one made from its trunk!"
"Hey, Hulim-san, give it a try!"
