《HERO CHRONICLES:》BK2; Chapter 31: [ At the Tailor Shop ]
Advertisement
- Dream's House of Fashion -
A new store owned by a player.
Establishing a store or business in this world isn't really that difficult and complicated compared to the real world because as long as you have enough money, you can just go to the merchant guild and registered.
The merchant guild will give you a list of free lots to build your store. You can also choose already established store to rent.
[ Dream's House of Fashion ] is the latter.
However, the owner of the place has a very big problem. That is....
... the place hasn't sold anything in the last 5 days.
"The prices are too expensive! Rare materials I need to level my tailor skills are too expensive! Most of my clothes are at poor quality, if only I have good materials... ha~"
Saaya with an in-game name of [ Cutie lady ], sighed as she laid her head in her tables.
Aside from the material needed for her to level up her skills, she also needed money to buy bread to eat. She could drink water from a fountain but it wasn't food!
She can fight monsters with a bow and farm for golds and materials outside the city but at most, she wanted to avoid that way.
She was scared of dying!
She can join a party but no one would want to take her because of her class a [ Tailor ].
Saaya could only anguish at her situation.
"Haaa~ worrying is not going to do anything. I don't have any customers, might as well clean..."
She started to clean however, all of a sudden.... suddenly a sound of a bell ringing resounded in the room, followed by the store door opening.
For the first time in her life, she hasn't feel excited more than today!
"Welcome customer!" Saaya greeted with a huge, beaming smile!
What entered was a white haired man wearing a black plain mask with jet black attire that looks very expensive and high quality.
Holding his hand was a cute and beautiful red-haired little girl.
Behind them was a blonde haired girl wearing a gorgeous looking white armor that made her look like a knight.
Seeing her first customer for a long time, Saaya couldn't help but gasped in surprised.
They don't like players... Don't tell me, they are.... Nobles!!! She thought.
Quickly dusting her clothes, she then did her best to act properly.
"H, how may I h, help you... ?" Saaya stammered while asking.
She couldn't help it. This is after all, her first time having a noble customer.
She was also worried and anxious about the noble's attitude as she has read about their really bad self esteem.

Who knows if the nobles in this world are the same from those stories?
Contrary to Saaya's silent worries, the white haired man whose face couldn't be seen because of his mask seemed to
be giving off a good and calming presence as he slowly raised his right hand to his left chest and give a slight bow.
"Good day to you my lady. My name's Sol and together with my lovely daughter and companion, we would like to look around a little bit inside your store~ Can we?"
The white haired masked man politely said.
Saaya, caught off guard, could only stare at the man with a flabbergasted expression.
She felt as if she was in those stories she read and watched before!
This is a real noble?!... she screamed in her mind.
But what caught her attention more was what the masked young man called the little girl...
...that's right! He called her 'daughter'! How?! Isn't this man too young to have a daughter?!
Various questions popped out from her mind but she tried her best to ignore it as she thought 'Yeah, this is a virtual
world after all!' with no choice.
"O-of course, p-please do so..."
... ...
Hero / Hein Vilestone [ Alt ]
"Can you show us your most prized products?" I instructed.
"Yes sir!" The girl in front of me immediately responded.
The first time I saw her, I've already knew that she is a player just like me.
She looks like, no, I'm certain that she is a Japanese person from her appearance.
[ Cutielady ] Level 10 Tailor
Her face, although not really beautiful compared to the women in this world, can still be called acceptable and
presentable.
She's more to the cute type rather than the beautiful type, with her long black hair fluttering around, I would say she would be beautiful if she wore a kimono instead of western clothes.
While walking, I noticed her stiff actions... must be the first time having a costumer like me.
I guess she thought I'm a noble or something~
She guides us to a room inside the shop and took out some samples from the interior.
Putting it on the top of the table, she then left for a while and came back after a short time, bringing a tea-like
drinks.
The cups were quite elegant, it suits my taste~
Seeing this, I couldn't help but sigh in amazement. This girl is quite good in entertaining some important customers~
"My lady such hospitality is unnecessary but still I'm very grateful." I said.
Her face dyed slightly red as she lowered her head in embarrassment.

Picking up the clothes, I inspect it one by one.
In the game, leather armor takes the least in terms of defense. They were only often used for easy movements and style.
In my hand, these leather armors and clothes seemed to be decent in my eyes compared to the ones in the NPC stores.
Although its defense can't be compared to those light armor and heavy armor but its style is quite acceptable.
Contrary to the medieval style of this world, this stores design seemed like from the real world.
I have some high level leather armors in my [ Spatial Rings ] but their designs and styles seemed to be so ancient and old. Though they look quite extravagant and majestic. It's not suited for daily wears.
"S, since it'll be cold from now on, how about this thick fabric? Although the quality isn't that great but I assure you
that these clothes will be useful..."
"Hmm~ my lady, can you kindly choose for me ten casual outfits of the store's best quality for them?" I asked while pointing Ashley and Iona.
The girl seemed shocked at first but then immediately nod her head.
Even Ashley beside me was surprised as she stared at me,
"Y, young master? M, me too?"
I looked at her and gently stroke her hair, "Yup, don't worry it's on me~"
"But young master..."
"Nope, no need to say anything, just try those clothes she'll bring, okay?"
Cutting her off, I picked up Iona and raised her up high in the air and bring her down again, making her giggle with happiness.
"My lovely Iona should dress beautiful for your papa to see, okay~"
"Uun, Iona will be very beautiful for papa!"
"Uum..."
As I was playing with Iona, the girl finally returned.
"Uum, miss and young mistress, follow me to the c, change room."
The girl whisked Ashley and Iona to the change room.
Waiting, I sat on the chair outside the change room patiently.
After a while, Ashley and Iona showed the first outfit she changed into.
"Not bad," I said.
"I'll take it."
"Y, young master... although this is the first time I saw and wore these beautiful clothes but is, is this really okay?"
Ashley shyly asked.
As I expected, western clothes; tiger stripes - print top together with short shorts.
As expected Ashley really looks very beautiful in western clothes. Even the models in earth was overshadowed.
Thighs! Soft looking thighs!!!
I certainly didn’t have a thigh fetish, I didn’t even understand why some people love thighs.
However, right now, I think I definitely join the Thigh Fan Group.
A truly perfect beauty wouldn’t have any flaws in her body.
In front of perfection, other than kneeling down and giving thanks to the lord's miracle, what else could I wish for?
She looks wildly sexy that I can't help but fight to calm down my wolfy paws.
"Y, you look good so it's fine... now change into the next outfit!"
A few minutes passed, Ashley and Iona had changed into ten casual outfits. All seemed to perfectly suit the two beauties with their western looks and physiques.
Sitting all the time, I wasn't the least bit tired instead, looking them changed into various outfits seemed to soothe my eyes.
"I would like to buy all the clothes they tried"
"Oh? Really? T, thank you very much!"
The girl looked overjoyed as her face glowed brightly and her eyes sparkled.
I'm guessing that this should be her first successful sale since a long time~
"Yes.... the total amount is.... etto... 54 gold coins. No wait a moment. That was the original price so I need to properly calculate it again."
The girl calculated again.
Based from my own estimation, the price would substantially lessen.
Even without the trading skill, I had an enormous amount of fame compared to the other players, so the price of the
items I'll purchased in stores like this would substantially decreased.
Buying these things was much cheaper than through a merchant!
Looking at her surprised expression, she must have noticed the substantial discount.
Well, even if I have such big discount, she would still have earned a gain.
The girl in front of me swallowed as she asked, "Its 54 gold in total but because there were discount it decreased into
52 gold. Would you like to make the purchase?"
"Ah, I will buy it... well, 54 gold is enough anyway~"
I have money that I can't use in my entire life so why do I need to be stingy~ It's only 2 gold coins anyway.
Borun left me with so much money, if I still act stingy in front of a lady, it would become a shame to my noble self.
"Ah!" The girl seemed surprised after hearing my words.
"T, thats..."
Without waiting for her to finish, I took her hand and place 54 gold coins.
She looked at me with wide eyes and her mouth flaps closed and open as if she turned into a fish that was thrown out of the water.
Amused by her actions, I unconsciously let out a chuckle.
When she heard it, she lowered her head embarrassed while softly muttering a 'Thank you'
