46 – Lawless Zone Requitas (6)
Just because the southern part of Requitas is called the entertainment district, that doesn’t mean all the stores are involved in crime, prostitution, or drugs.
For there to be a shadow, there must first be light. Requitas in the middle of the day had a decent shopping street.
It was a place that the street rats protected by collecting ‘protection fees’.
Sirien and I went out to the shopping street alone.
It was to buy a few clothes.
Now Isha was wearing Sirien’s borrowed clothes, which caused Sirien to run out of clothes for her to wear.
Sirien had to carry her holy clothes with her, so her spare clothes were always lacking.
After I lent it to Isha, I didn’t even have clothes to wear tomorrow.
Ishawa decided to cooperate with each other until her father was found.
We became interested in the information that the rats were keeping an eye on, and Isha’s life was in immediate danger.
Since there was a lot of street rats outside, we had to procure the supplies we needed.
Luckily, Isha’s physique was slightly smaller than Sirien’s.
If you buy clothes tailored to Sirien, you will be able to wear them.
“Wow. “There are so many clothing stores here.”
“Why is it like I’m seeing the mall for the first time?”
“Is this your first time seeing this? “When have I been here?”
“There were a lot of clothes in the castle.”
“At that time, what would I do by coming to a place like this? “If it’s my clothes, they should come make it themselves.”
“Ah… ….”
I was speechless.
In modern times, is this the difference in thinking between common people and conglomerates?
Of course, Sirien had a lot of clothes in Reheim Castle.
I have never once wondered where all those clothes came from.
During the day, she trained as a knight, and by the time Sirien came, all she could do was listen to her brag about having new clothes.
So, I thought that clothes were something you would go to a store to buy.
It seemed natural for a daughter of a grand duke to not wear clothes sold on the market.
Sirien, who was looking at the clothing stores on the street one by one, pointed to one store.
It was a store called ‘Fairy Thread’.
“Let’s go in from there first.”
A hand suddenly grabs my arm and guides me.
Sirien, who went ahead first, had a smile on his face.
I obediently entered the store with Sirien.
‘Fairy’s Thread’ seemed much larger on the inside than it looked on the outside.
There was quite a variety of clothes, from fancy dresses that seemed to mimic those of the social world to casual clothes that looked quite luxurious.
Inside, a strict-looking woman looked at us and became angry.
“A pretty girl has arrived. Welcome. “Which of you two is looking for clothes?”
“I’m thinking of buying some casual clothes for myself. “I only brought a few clothes.”
“Then what about underwear?”
“…… Yes. First.”
Sirien followed her mistress and began to look through her clothes one by one.
Meanwhile, I sat on the chair brought by the clerk and waited, and it was amazing to see Sirien choosing her clothes.
Imperial law stipulates that a person becomes an adult at the age of sixteen.
But in Korea, where I lived, I was 20 years old. If you calculate it by age like here, you are considered an adult from the age of 19.
In my eyes, Sirien is still a girl who hasn’t completely shed her youthful appearance.
I’m at an age where I want to go to sleep for a while.
Sirien grew up in a place where she could have as much as she wanted, whether it was expensive jewelry or a fancy dress.
What I once held in my hand was taken away. As if that wasn’t enough, I’ve been going around the battlefield and suffering for several years already.
Thanks to that, Hibras now has a small number of church members, and I guess we can call them colleagues. There were some guys who ended up eating together within the mercenary group.
However, there was still not a single insignificant accessory in Sirien’s hands.
While she was lost in thought, Sirien seemed to have decided on a set of clothes for her.
A girl with silver hair and red eyes stood in front of me wearing new clothes.
“How do you like this outfit? Suited?”
Pure white dress. A wide-brimmed hat was on her head, and lace was attached to the end of the fluttering fabric, giving her an airy look.
Sirien’s skin was very clean and white, and it blended in well with her long silver hair.
Since her face completes her clothes, Sirien easily pulls off whatever she wears.
“It’s okay. “Because you’ve always liked white.”
“Really? “Then I must buy this.”
It seemed like my praise was well received.
Sirien smiled and returned. Even looking at her back, I could feel that her mood had improved.
Even though she pretended not to do so, our princess had a side that was surprisingly easy to understand.
When Sirien went far to choose her clothes again, she happened to have a clerk waiting next to me.
“Do you also sell accessories here?”
“Is this for a gift?”
“Yes. “The person who will receive it is over there.”
He pointed at Sirien with a nod.
Then the clerk smiled. I don’t know why, but women tended to be sincere when choosing gifts, even if they weren’t hers.
“I think a bracelet would be good.”
“Something just came in recently. Would you like to take a look?”
“Yes, of course.”
“Please wait a moment.”
Soon, a clerk came pulling a cart.
She whispers to me as she shows me some luxurious boxes.
“It’s okay to choose slowly. In cases like this, the store manager doesn’t let you see this place. “You should be brushing her hair by now.”
“That’s good. Can you recommend something that would go well with it?”
“Of course. How about something like this?”
The recommended bracelet was a bracelet with rubies embedded between silver threads woven like a chain.
Silver and red. It was the same color as Sirien’s symbol.
Personal color based on hair and eye color may seem common, but beauty is most powerful when something obvious works well.
“You have a very thin body, so it looks better if the thread is this thin rather than too thick. “I’ll show you a few other things as well.”
After that, the clerk showed me other bracelets, but there wasn’t one I liked better.
There were some things that were densely studded with colorful jewels or had gold threads intricately intertwined, but they didn’t make much of an impact.
I don’t think Sirien would like something that flashy.
It looked much better to reveal oneself rather than dazzling the eye with a promiscuous array of accessories.
Originally, the most precious luxury goods show off a calm and sophisticated beauty. In the end, I decided to buy the bracelet I first chose.
Although quite a bit of money was lost, it wasn’t worth it at all.
Anyway, it was money I received that I could use for personal use, and my circumstances were not so tight that I was struggling for just a few pennies.
“I guess he’s coming soon. “Would you like me to put the cart away?”
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. “Have a good love.”
“Yes?”
We are not in that relationship yet.
No. There is nothing like this yet.
-Before I could answer, the clerk quietly disappeared with the cart.
After waiting a little longer, Sirien arrived, dressed much more daringly than before.
This time it was a black evening dress that was exposed from the shoulders to below the collarbone.
Her finely combed hair fell softly, and the braided side braid as if to give a point was extremely pretty.
Light flesh-colored light gathered on the sculpted collarbone.
The chest expands with inhalation and exhalation. The outline of the body changing with small movements was mesmerizing.
Sirien could be s*xy just by exposing her arms, shoulders, and lower neck.
I couldn’t really recognize her face because I had seen it so often, but when she decorated it a little like this, I felt like I was suffocating.
Sirien’s cheeks turned red and he bowed down.
“Huh, what do you think? Is it still a bit empty? Since I can see all of her shoulders, it feels so empty…… “If you don’t like how it looks, you can change into other clothes right now.”
“No. No. Are you okay. It’s pretty. Goes well. Huh. It suits you really well.”
Sirien suddenly became very talkative, and I stuttered, cutting off her words.
My head was so hot that I couldn’t think properly. I couldn’t find my composure.
I tried to look to the side because I felt like I was staring too hard, but I kept looking again because I wanted to see it again.
Fortunately, our eyes never met.
If I even made eye contact with Sirien at a time like this, I might be ridiculed for the rest of my life.
“Is that so? So should I buy one of these too? Actually, I’ve seen a few more before, but I wanted to show you this one. Her hair was also slightly new. “I usually just unpack it.”

“Uh…… OK. Since it’s here, if you like it, buy it all. Can you give me that bag? “I will listen.”
“Ugh. Thank you.”
Sirien’s expression relaxed.
The corner of his mouth twitched as his cheeks were as colored as apples.
I saw it, but I didn’t dare to point it out.
It was a good thing that Sirien didn’t really see me because he was melting under her praise.
Unlike usual, I couldn’t even look properly. So I had to turn away with the excuse that I was going to pay.
What ended our skit was one mischievous remark from the clerk.
“I guess you two have been dating for a while now? “You’re fresh.”
“Well, well, it’s not like that!”
“Oh, excuse me. Was it yet? “We get along so well with each other, so let’s stop.”
“Hi-“
Sirien hiccuped.
