Chapter 481: Maria and the Girls on a Shopping Spree
Maria and the others were having going around the Royal Capital to shop, but that didnt mean that they were not being on guard.
Although she wasnt visible, Kaede, whose humming seemed like it break out into singing soon, erased her presence and, because of her high level Stealth Skill and presence concealing coat, she could monitor the people who gazed evilly at her companions without being noticed by anyone.
In terms of monster ranking, Kaede was a unique type of Arachne, which was was already a disaster class monster that could annihilate one or two cities. That was why Kaede would be in stealth whenever were not at Volton or the Sanctuary.
Even in the Adventurers Guild in the Royal Capital, there was no one who could compete directly with Kaede. Naturally, the same goes for the members of the small and medium sized dark guilds.
Even now, a fool unaffiliated with dark guilds was being rolled up in threads without anyone around him noticing.
Furthermore, the Dwarves Doganbo and Golan would not lose in power to the goons of those dark guilds. Before they lived in the Sanctuary, they would go to dangerous places to mine and hunt monster materials, after all.
Maria and the others were choosing clothes at a clothing store for the common folk in the Royal Capital.
The Sanctuary has an abundance of cloth purchase by Takumi through the Papeck Company which the residents are free to use, so theres no worry over clothes, but of course, there is a clear difference between homemade clothes and those made by pros.
Thats why the Cat Sith mother Poporo and the Elf mother Melty did not miss the chance to scrounge up some clothing.
However, Maria, Marnie, and Akane were a little bit different. That was because the clothes they wore were made using Kaedes special threads, and it goes without saying that Maria and Kaedes skills were higher than pros, so there was no need to buy from the clothing stores in the city.
Then, why was Maria looking intently at the clothes? She wanted to reference the Royal Capitals fashion designs.
Waa, Oneechan,, these clothes are pretty nya!
Youre right, these are also pretty, you knyow!
The Cat Siths Miri and Lala were having fun picking out clothes.
Cat Siths, which looked like bipedal cats, are covered in fur so they do not wear much clothing. Even now, Miri and Lalas attire consisted of matching short sleeved shirts, thin spring vests and shorts. These were stitched together by their mother Poporo, it couldnt be helped that they were far from being fashionable.
Maria and the others have different goals, but they were choosing clothes seriously.
Hey hey, Maria, what do you think of this design?
Hmmm. As expected of the capital, theres a lot of designs we can use as reference.
But dont you make up your own designs, Akane-san?
I didnt think of those designs myself. I just copied the designs from my old world. Its Maria and Kaede-chan who are amazing for being able to reproduce it from my sloppy drawings.
Thats nyot true nya. Thanks to Akanye-sama, Lulu is able to wear cute maid clothes like this nya.
T-thats cosplay stuff in Takimis eyes.
Kospure nya?
Come now, Lulu you go choose clothes too.
Yes. Lets buy everything we can use as reference for designs.
Influenced by Akane and Takumi, Maria made various clothing designs that didnt exist in this world, but even so, the designs popular in the Royal Capital could be useful so they decided to buy every possible design.
This time, Takumi gave a lot of shopping money so they could buy clothes in the Royal Capital. Even in a world where buying cloth and sewing it yourself is the norm and clothes were expensive, the amount he gave made it questionable if he wanted to buy the entire store.
This was also because the clothes Takumi wears were made by Maria and Kaede, so Takumi, who has only ever been to thrift stores in the city, was under the impression that clothes were expensive in this world.
Everyone but Takumi knew that that much money wasnt needed, but no one pointed it because a bigger budget was more than welcome.
Maria and Akane bought a ton of clothes together with Poporo and the others.
After their purchase concluded in one store, they stuffed all of it in the Magic Bag that Takumi made. Then, everyone clamored over onto the next shop.
Those who got fed up of it were the Dwarves Doganbo and Golan.
Doganbo regretted it. He endured it for the alcohol, but even so, he didnt know it would be this troublesome to come along in the girls shopping spree.
I should have guessed it from Takumis reaction.
Stop complaining Doganbo, just give up and think of it as training.
Doganbo finally understood why Takumi didnt come along.
Doganbo and Golans tribulations have only just begun.
After all, Maria and the girls shopping spree would continue for the entire day.
