"How much for that hat?"
I asked a guy running a stand who was selling different clothes.
"H-Huh, 18 Eden."
The man stuttered.
I was still covering my face but what was diverting his gaze was the scary black-haired girl next to .
"..."
Mary was looking around her curiously, she wasn't showing it but I could feel that she was a little excited.
"Here, I'm paying with the Eden Guild card."
"Yes,"
The man nodded and I swiped my card into a card reader.
I took the hat and headed toward an isolated spot.
Removing the clothes from my head, I gathered my grey hair and hid it in my hat.
People would find strange wearing a hat in sumr, but since it was early in the morning now, it was a little cold, so it wouldn't necessarily attract attention.
I also removed the clothes from my face as well. People would only recognize if they saw my grey hair, which was unique to Falkrona in the Celesta Kingdom, but my face was hardly recognizable right now. I lost weight and the fat on my cheeks and even my features changed a little, so it was alright.
"Finally, I can breathe calmly."
I let out a long breath to which Mary didn't react. She was just staring at .
"Let's go buy clothes now."
…
I wandered in the streets with Mary.
…and I still gathered attention.
It must be because of Mary's gloomy aura and the dress she was wearing. She was also bare-footed and in the capital of nobles like that, it wasn't well-seen.
"This one will be good."
I nodded my head while standing in front of a big building. Screens were showing the different dresses available for both won and n.
TrueStyle huh.
It was definitely a famous brand.
The automatic doors opened and we entered, but before we could take the next step, a guard in a suit stopped us.
"What?"
I asked with a frown.
The guard looked at and pointed at Mary.
"This girl cannot enter. You are also barely barely, but it's okay for you."
"..."
Mary didn't show any expressions like usual, but I was annoyed.
"I thought the 'custor is king' though?"
"Have you ever seen kings wearing beggars' clothes?"
[]
Cleenah stifled a laugh.
"TrueStyle huh."
I swept my gaze around and snorted.
"CringeStyle would be better, don't you think so?"
I put my palm on my forehead and shook my head.
"Brat, you should better leav-"
He tried to put his hand on my chest but I grabbed his wrist before.
"Don't touch with your filthy hands."
Disgust welled on when that guy tried to touch .
It was unlike.
No.
It was definitely how I acted before gaining Nyrel's mories. I hated strangers touching , even more when they weren't nobles.
"Aghh!"
I squeezed his wrist hard and he yelped in pain.
"Know your place."
The man kneeled on the ground because of the pain and I let him go after that.
"What's happening?!"
"Call the security!"
"Let's leave Mary, this store is not that good actually."
[]
"Don't retort to like that! You know what I an."
I replied and looked for another store.
"Here!"
"Hm?"
I shifted my gaze toward a little store, eclipsed by the bigger ones. A man wearing spectacles was waving a white flag and on it was written [50% sales!].
The na of the store was [RealStore].
I think I know where he got his inspiration.
Since I was feeling too much pity for him, I decided to give a look at his store.
"Y-You ca! I thought you would avoid like the others!"
This guy was sure pathetic.
"I will take a look."
"I beg you!"
Pathetic…
"Milady!"
He bowed nobly to and Mary behind .
Well, at least he was courteous compared to the other guy.
"Welco!"
A little boy and a little girl were there to welco us.
No one was there except them.
Were they staff mbers…?
They were barely ten though…
"I need shoes and a total dress-up for her. Help her, she's a little awkward in such a place. As for , just show the n's area."
"Yes! Please, Milady, follow !"
The little girl dragged Mary by her hand.
"Sir, I will take care of you."
The boy said and I followed him.
I glanced behind and saw the man, who was probably the children's father, still waving the flag. He must have full confidence in his children to let them alone like that.
…
…
…
"Now, it's better."
I looked at my reflection in the mirror and nodded.
I'd already thrown away my previous clothes and now was wearing new black pants, black shoes, a white shirt and a black jacket.
"Are you perhaps…a noble?"
"!"
I flinched when the boy asked that. He seed nervous.
Has he found my identity?
I touched my hat but it was still there.
"Why do you think that?"
I asked curiously.
"Your stance, gait and…your face."
"My face…?"
Do I have the face of a noble?
"The lady is ready!"
Cutting off from my thoughts was the voice of the little girl. She was dragging with her hand Mary that I nearly didn't recognize.
""Woooowww…""
Both the little girl and little boy exhaled in admiration. The difference was that the girl was looking at and the boy at Mary.
As for , I was looking at Mary shocked. She was even more beautiful than what I witnessed in her life in the Sekrin town.
She was wearing a one-shoulder white sweater with black pants with simple white sneakers. Her black hair was tied behind her, showing her pretty face well.
Mary was looking back at , showing no emotions.
"I will buy them. How much?"
I decided to buy them without waiting.
They were really good clothes.
"Of course, Sir!"
The man was back in the shop and had a broad smile on his face. He was very very very very happy, without a doubt.
Don't tell their store rarely has custors.
Well, it was obvious since his store was located near another famous clothes store.
"120 Eden, please."
It was rather cheap.
I paid for the clothes with my card and left the store.
I had already bought sothing for Belle. I hope she won't beat up.
…
…
…
It was already afternoon and I was standing in front of my aunt's mansion.
I already told Mary to go back to her world since she was attracting TOO much attention.
I have to admit that she was really beautiful. She could have been a [Heroine] easily.
All the boys and even girls stopped to look at her.
