## Description

A management simulation game of a merchant traveling through another world.

You've been summoned to another world.
What was waiting for you there was a harsh merchant life ...
Let's travel with the spirits to various towns and bring back energy to the world!!
Hope you don't meet the thief...

Let's sell the items you got side by side on the display stand!
If you need an item to sell, ask the adventurer from the Adventurer's Guild.
Various products and high-paying requests are waiting for you in the Merchant Guild!
If you buy an alchemy pot for sale in the Merchant Guild, you can spend HP and materials to synthesize new items.
If you can afford it, donate to the temple. You will be blessed by the spirits in each town.
If you get tired of the same scenery, let's leave the town. The higher the merchant rank, the more towns you can visit.
Travel around the world and try to find a way to return to your original world.
