[53] "Super (Energy) Potion": Reiji Kirio, a Japanese salaryman, is transported to a different world where he opens a drug store in Kalta village to make and sell potions with werewolf girl Noela as store mascot, and ghost girl Mina Fleuret as shop assistant and housekeeper.
With Feris back to normal Zeral pays Reiji an exorbitant fee, revealing he is actually a rich, carefree noble.
Reiji, a former downtrodden salaryman, becomes emotionally unstable at nobles throwing their money around, and the sweetness of the couple, forcing Mina to treat him with the tea as well.
Doz and Moz, Red Cat mercenaries who protect the town, beg Reiji to sell his energy potions for a discount as their Captain Annabelle requires five a day due to how hard she works.
The repellant is an instant hit with farmers but Noela refuses to be around Reiji unless he has bathed first, due to her heightened sense of smell.
After giving her a potion to soothe her injured hands Reiji advises she use a short bow and brews a medicinal lure that attracts animals.
Reiji discovers a cellar under the living room with the help of the resident carpenter and finds a brooch that belonged to Mina’s mother.

"Big Catch Buddy":Reiji takes everyone on a picnic to a lake but find it is no longer visited by humans as monsters now live nearby.
She explains she took Reiji’s bait because humans used to offer food at her shrine but since monsters appeared no one comes anymore and she is starving.
Unfortunately when drunk by Mina and Noela it instantly increases their muscle size and gives them professional bodybuilder personalities, but only for about an hour.
Anime News Network's review of the first novel gave it a score of 3/5 stars, stating: "There is a lovely straightforward quality to the writing and the story that lets us know that Kennoji isn't winking and nudging towards any deeper plan, but it really is, on the whole, kind of boring.
