The Lady Wants To Rest - Chapter 36
However, the youth they had seen just now looked to be in his early to mid twenties. But he was at the level of a magic expert?
‘There’s no way I wouldn’t know of such a young magic expert.’
I tapped the table with the end of my knife and muttered inwardly.
‘West Empire’s young magic expert. Young. Magic expert.’
It was at that moment.
I realized a very important fact.
There was one person who came into mind!
The West Empire’s young magic expert!
But I deflated like a balloon losing air and slightly shook my head.
‘There’s no way. Why would he be here?’
The person I thought of was an incredibly famous person.
Because he was the West Empire’s Crown Prince.
‘Crown Prince Friedhelm is a magician with one of the greatest magical potentials throughout all of history. That was why he had risen to such a level as well.’
I propped up my chin.
‘If it wasn’t Crown Prince Friedhelm, then who was it? Was there someone born with such an immense talent in magic other than him?’
I considered it and shook my head.
‘Why should I care who he is. It’s not as if we’ll ever meet again. Let’s not mind it.’
I neatly erased every trace of thought about that man.
[It seems we will meet again.]
Though I recalled his words, I scoffed. Meet again, my ass. Since I’ve earned plenty of money, I was going to live lazily from now on.
“Thank you for the meal! It was delicious!”
After we finished our meal, we slowly walked through the streets of Renault City. The slightly chilly spring breeze felt good.
“Hehe.”
“Why are you laughing?”
“Because I feel happy walking with milady.”
“And it’s not because you have a lot of money?”
“Ah, no. N, no, that’s true to some extent.”
I let out a chuckle.
“Marie, follow me.”
“Where are we going?:
“Since we’ve earned a lot, we should use it. Let’s use some money before heading back to the dorms.”
The place I led Marie to was the tailor’s.
It was just any tailor shop, it was an expensive one that used only the best quality cloth.
“Wow. This is the first time I’ve been to a place like this.”
Marie’s eyes grew wide as she looked around the shop.
“Milady, I’ll help you choose your dresses. Since milady is so beautiful, you’ll look great in whatever you wear.”
I shook my head.
“We’re not here to buy me clothes.”
“Then?”
“It’s to buy you clothes.”
Marie blinked her eyes as if she didn’t understand my meaning before she jumped in surprise and her eyes grew round.
“What, what? What!”
“Come over here. Let’s hurry up and buy some clothes.”
“N, no! Don’t you know how much these clothes cost?!”
Just like the luxury tailor shop it was, the cost of one dress exceeded several hundred cena.
“It’s alright. I have a lot of money.”
With that, I gestured at the shop employees.
“Take her away and fit her with some clothes. There’s no need to be concerned about money, so do what you wish and pick out a few dresses for daily casual wear and a party dress.”
“Yes, milady.”
Since I roughly seemed to be an aristocrat with a lot of money, the employees politely lowered their heads and dragged away Marie.
“N, no! My money…! N, no… Milady’s money!”
Marie shouted as though she was being dragged into a slaughterhouse, but she was neatly ignored.
The shop employees dressed Marie with clothes as if they were playing with a doll.
At first Marie resisted, but after having worn clothes of such high quality, she made a dreamy expression.
“D, does it fit me?”
“Yes, it’s pretty.”
They weren’t empty words. Be it due to the dress being beautiful or Marie being rather cute, it fit her very well.
Marie blushed as she looked into the mirror, then abruptly shook her head.
“B, but you can’t! It’s too expensive.”
“It’s fine. Please package all of them.”
This time, Marie didn’t give way and resisted.
It was understandable, since the clothes were rather expensive. After all, the total cost for all of the dresses was around 1,500 cena.
