Spice and Wolf: MERCHANT MEETS THE WISE WOLF

An old tale from long ago, that began in a village far, far away. There, a wolf brought bountiful harvests of wheat for an exceedingly long time, until memories of the wolf became antiquated stories. What then, was left for the wolf to do?

Lawrence and Holo stay overnight in the town where they sell the furs. As Lawrence learns more about Holo, Holo learns about the current state of the Church and shares her own wisdom.

After arriving in the great merchant city of Pazzio, Lawrence teaches Holo more about the many kinds of currency in use. Then the Wise Wolf earns her keep - and her title - by demonstrating her bargaining skills.

Lawrence has figured out the truth behind the silver scheme, and how to profit from it, but in doing so he has made some dangerous enemies. Meanwhile, Holo and Lawrence discuss his grand plans for the future.

Lawrence reveals Holo's secret to the manager of Milone Trading Company to gain their help in securing Holo's escape. For merchants, money comes first, so why has Medio Trading captured Holo at all? Lawrence must outthink politics to save Holo.

Holo and Lawrence are trapped in the tunnels below the city, with hunters searching for them in all directions. When danger comes, how far will they go to protect each other?
