8. Compensation

---

The goat ... ... No, the merchant seems to be stunned by listening to my story. 

I would like him to understand what I mean. 

But wisely the merchant said nothing 

"I still haven't heard why is your spacecraft stuck in my field?"

"There is usually a flow of space that you can moved regardless of the distance, although it is called a phase route, but its use tremendous energy, It is necessary to have a mother ship and go down to normal route with a small spacecraft ... ... but I came to a place like this " 

The coordinates he specified must be went out of order or there must be some accident why he appears out here. 

"Well, I hope you fix it properly later. " 

"I am sorry, I will repair as soon as possible. I still have something to search and it will be finish before dawn."

"What are you searching?"

"I know that it is in this star area, so after I back to the spaceship, I can probably locate with the radar ... ... it is a small gem?"

What did he mean with "star area"? Is it probably mean the entire solar system? (TN: Maybe it will be better to called it star region?? I will replace it later if it fits better that star area)

"I think too wide to look for that"

"It called Divided Notice, It is a beautiful jewel that blends deep blue representing the universe and brilliant white representing stars, Since it releases a special wave, it can be narrow down to a certain extent. (TN : Can anyone think of a better name for this " 分水嶺の理ことわり ")

I recalled that word.

"Did you mean something like this?"

I took out the pendant on the neck.

I show him the stone on the pendant that was my design by college friend, and was crafted by my other friend.

"Oh oh oh!"

"When I picked up that stone I thought it was acrylic or glass because it was transparent"

The goat merchant opened his eyes when i mention that in this one year that the stone was attach to the pendant, the has color gradually appeared.

"It is colorless and transparent at the beginning, when it releases a unique wave it will change it color, and when it is completed the Divided Notice will stop releasing a wave."

Afterwards, when the repair of spaceship was done he inspected the stone and it was confirmed that it is genuine.

"Minoru, this is the Divided Notice ... ..." (TN: The name really doesn't sit well with me, maybe I can call it Reason of division? Or Dividing ridge)

"It is OK, it seems necessary, so you can have "

I handed the pendant to the goat merchant.

"Thank you very much, this decoration is also brilliant ..."

"It is a work of a friend"

"Yes, it seems you have a wonderful friend ... .... So for compensation for Minoru, how about I exchange with my own stock?"

" Well ... that's fine. "

Although it was okay to give it to me separately.

"Thank you. Then exchange for the Divided Notice ......"

The goat merchant operated the console.

Then a continuous list of item was shown in front panel of the spaceship.

"How about one from among them? "

Somehow, there a lot to choose from.

"...... It's is not just someone can acquire."

"I am a merchant dealing with stars ...... The items I handle are naturally related to it."

This goat! your dealing something dangerous, oi.

Heck! you can even control a planet!

"Well, there is demand."

So I have to choose from these....
