[Yaa, Am I late?] Feria

The next day, me and Feria-san met each other at the clock tower of the royal capital, *Malgarest.

[No, I just got here.] Alty

[Thats great. What a cute one piece! That ribbon on the back makes you look like a fairy.] Feria

Feria who said that was wearing the same traveling clothes as yesterday.

But if you were to look carefully, there are some parts that are different like-

[You are wearing a red scarf today. It looks good on you.] Alty

[Thank you. Its a date with a lovely princess after all, I tried putting it on to get me psyched up.] Feria

Feria-san had such a smile which made the girls who were walking on the street cant help but turn to look at her until they were out of sight.

[Well, then. Shall we go, Altirea-san?] Feria

[Please, just Alty is fine. All my close friends call me that.] Alty

[No, to not use honorifics towards a lady who isnt even an acquaintance, even if towards a younger party, is .] Feria

[Isnt it just fine? We are both girls, right?] Alty

A casual phrase came out of my mouth.

However, it seems like it has a bigger meaning to Feria-san as she blinked her eyes in surprise and looked as if she was perplexed about something.

Finally,

[Aah, thats right, now that you mention it.] Feria

She mumbled happily.

I have mentioned it before. That I was also an *Ouji-sama character in my high school days. Being admired by the girls around me in their shrill voice was so pleasant that I wasnt able to stop acting like one even at graduation.

On the other hand, I also wanted to be looked at as a girl.

It was a difficult personality but it seems like Feria-san is of the same kind.

That is why I wanted to do something that I myself would find happy at that time to her.

[Wear this? Not you, but me?] Feria

The first place we visit is not the sightseeing spot Res fountain gate but a cloth store.

The wide interior of the store was lined with dresses and hats, and elegantly dressed ladies can be seen from time to time.

[Since youve already in the royal capital, you no longer have to dress like a boy, right?] Alty

[That is right, but.] Feria

Feria-san might be saying that, but her eyes betrayed her. They were glued to the tunic and skirt that I brought out.

[Its because Ive been wearing this type of clothes for years already that I just dont feel familiar wearing girly clothes.]Feria

[No way, thats not true. Feria-san, Im sure itll look good on you since you are so beautiful, oris it that you dont like it?]Alty

I tried begging with an upward glance.

I do feel too much of a *burikko, but to achieve my purpose, I wont back off.

[Its only this time, okay. Only this once.]Alty

Anyway, I should keep insistently pushing her.

Since she wouldnt be able to refuse unless her heart really disliked it.

My old self was also like that.

[Haa.]

Feria-san sighs as if she had given up.

[ OK. But please dont laugh at me later.]Feria

While Feria-san was changing behind the curtain of the fitting room, I idly look around the store.

N?

The guy talking closely to the female owner, I feel like Ive seen him before.

Aah, our eyes met.

He nodded as a greeting. I also responded courteously.

He walking here.

I wonder if we are acquaintances. He was a young man with a bright smile.

He has short trimmed hair and his skin look a bit tanned wheat color.

[Long time no see, Altirea-sama. It has been 2 years, hasnt it?

Do you remember me? Im *Hial Talbot.]Hial

Aah!

I remembered.

He is the eldest son of that wealthy merchant, Mr. Oak Talbot, who was eating Karaage together with Els at the party.

His fathers left an impression so strong that his presence was hardly noticed, but I do remember having talked with him for a bit.

[I never thought Id see you in a place like this. I am acquainted to this shop owner as we are wholesaling the empires clothes. Are you not here with the Wisp duke?]Hial

[Yes, I have come here with someone I know.]Alty

[I see. They seem to be in the fitting room I suppose. *Oya, isnt that one piece the one made by miss Will Ridel?]Hial

[Yes, you really seem to know it well.]Alty

[The ribbon at the back is pretty noticeable, and its also handled by our business, you see. Actually, my daughter really likes it. Aah, thats right. Among the clothes delivered here today, there is one which is handmade by miss Will mixed in.]Hial

Mr. Hial went back to the female owner while leaving me behind. With the chance of selling something, a merchant acting quick like this is really merchant-like. *

[This is the newly made one. Actually, it is made by magic threads.]Hial

And so, the browned skin merchant came back.

[. How is it? Is it not weird?]Hial

It was at the same time that a sleek lady came out from behind the curtain.

Both of us went quiet at the same time.

But our reason was different from each other.

Mr. Hial was fascinated by Feria-san who was dressed as a female.

His mouth that should be eloquent, could only stumble around with [ah, Etto, that-].

His face was also boiling red.

This is my first time seeing someone falling in love so easily like this.

Feria-san also seems to be fascinated. However, it isnt Mr. Hial, but the new work of Miss Will.

Its only natural that Feria-san is attracted by it. This is the kind of cloth that I really really wanted to wear in my previous life though I had to give up on wearing it as it felt like it didnt fit me.

A red checked *salopette skirt, the straps are crossed at the back and below there, blooms a big ribbon.

With that, it somehow became the design of the Red Riding hood.

However, Feria-san let down her gaze in disappointment. The dress was too small for her tall stature.

well, Mr. Hials love should be taken care of by himself as a man. Though he does have a child, his wife did ran away, and he doesnt seem like an unfaithful person.

Lets leave it at that. I want to grant Feria-san her wish.

There is a way.

The magic threads used in this dress is to prevent wrinkles and dirt, but the size can also be altered by using magic on it.

As for why I know about things like this, it may have been obvious already but Will Ridel is me.

Strictly speaking, its a name created for selling the clothes made by me and the dolls.

.. It is actually an insurance for when the Wisp house collapse if according to the original game scenario.

So that Id be able to live with the familiar handicraft I used to do in my previous life.

Now, it should be the dolls at the Wisp house who made the clothes according to the design left by me, and handing it to Talbot in a route that is impossible to track who miss Will Ridel is.

I never thought I would see it in a foreign land like this.
