I turned around, prepared to leave when I remember something. I took out some high quality leathers from my [ Spatial Ring ] and faced her again.

"Can I order some clothes using these materials?" Saying that, I showed her the leathers in my hands.

Black Steel Rat King Leather

( Grade A craft item )

Red Fur Wolf King Leather

( Grade A craft item )

Iron Back Wolf King Leather

( Grade A craft item )

Skeleton General Bones

( Grade B craft item )

The girl's face in front of me distorted. Her eye widened as if they were going to fall down any minute.

Her jaws dropped open, wide enough for a whole egg to be stuffed inside, "Grade A items!!!"

"Yeah~ so..."

"But, but my skill proficiency is still not high enough! I, I might lower the quality of the clothes!"

Well, not might but certainly.

Although I can do it by myself if I just learn the skill needed but that feels like a pain and I also don't trust my sense of aesthetic that much. I can find another player but that feels a bit pain once again so I'll pass.

If I leave it to the high leveled NPC's, I might get a very high level item but I don't like their old and medieval sense of style and aesthetic so leaving it this girl might prove worth it.

In the first place, skill levels are not the only important in terms of crafting.

Just like when I was fighting a battle, own skills and abilities matters.

Comprehension and the like also greatly contribute and this girl seemed like she was used to this job as if she were also doing it back in the real world just by looking at the clothes inside the store.

"Well, don't worry about it. I trust your abilities."

"B, but... a, alright, I, I will do it... no please let me do it! I will do my best!" The girl bowed towards me.

"I will leave it to you ... oh right, can it look like this? You can change something if you deemed it necessary"

I took a piece of paper and drew out sketches that looked like a ninja - thief outfit.

The waist side of the outfit had a spot where I can slide in two katanas.

I also added many hidden pockets where I can store some small things like hidden weapons. The pants also had pockets that can hide items as well.

I also drew a long scarf.

"This..." The girl seemed surprised after she looked at the design that should've been out of this world.

"Oh it seems you know this kind of outfit. Yup, I'm the same as you a player. These two with me are not though~"

"T, that... I, I see..."

"Well, so much for that, so can you do it? I will just let you design the scarf"

"Yes! Ah, I mean, of course leave it to me ..." The girl, seemingly recovered from shocked nodded vigorously.

"Good. Oh right, I still don't know your name. Can you give me the privilege to know your name?" I gently asked.

Well, it's not like its bad to ask their name anyway~

"Y, yes... M, my real name is Miyamoto S- Saaya, a, a pleasure to meet you M, mister Sol"

The girl, Saaya with a smile said while extending her hand. I took her hand and shook it.

"Likewise, my lady." Bowing, I smiled.

"T, then... uum ..." Fidgeting, she softly muttered.

"What is it my lady? Is something wrong?"

"um..That is ... I want to take your measurements. I want to make sure the clothes perfectly fit you." Her face was

dyed red.

If this were an anime or manga, her red ears would have let out some hot steam right now.

"Okay... Ashley, Iona please wait for a moment~"

"Yes young master."

"Uun, Iona will wait for papa!"

The two immediately responded.

With a permanent blush on her face, the girl, Saaya guided me to a room.

"Should I take off my clothes?" I asked.

"Eh? ah, etto, f, for accurate measurements ... p, please do s, so" While saying so, I noticed that her face were now burning than before.

Amused by her reactions that seemed like a girl in her puberty, I couldn't help but smiled wryly under my mask.

She took a measuring tape like thing and started.

"P, please lift your arms and s, spread them w, wide."

Obediently, I followed her every orders.

Saaya took the measuring tape and wrapped it around my chest and waist. I thought she hugged me from behind but

I dismissed the thought.

"Uum, c, can I ask you a question?"

"Hm? You can, I'll answer it if I can"

"T, that is ... are you really a player?" She softly asked while taking my measurements.

"Yup, I am."

"But those two ... I mean, the knight seemed to called you, young master. And the little girl called you papa ..."

"Oh that ... well, due to some various circumstances, I was adopted by a noble household. And that little girl wanted to call me papa so I just let it be and treat her as my own daughter. The feeling's not bad so why not~"

"I, I see ..." She answered while writing down the measurements.

"Y, you can relax now. I think it will take me about a week or so but I will definitely do my best and give you a wonderful armor!"

"Hm~ I look forward to it."

"B, but is it really okay for me to do it? I mean, these materials are all high grade items. You might find another tailor that has higher level compared to me ..." She asked anxiously.

Raising my hand, I unconsciously stroke her head gently.

Noticing, I hurriedly withdraw it. It seems this has become a habit for me...

She too seemed shock but then quickly regained her senses as she lowered her head while fidgeting. She looks embarrassed.

'Hehe she's quite cute~'

"Well, I'll tell you something good. Skill levels are not that important. While working you should comprehend it perfectly, it will surely produce some unexpected results. From what I can guess, you seemed used to this work so it

should be easy for you. Don't rely on skill levels, rely on your own skills and abilities."

After saying so, I bid her farewell and left the store with Ashley and Iona.

--------------------------

Now then, next is... hm, I guess I'll just look for a great blacksmith in this town.

Although, I met ( not really me but my other self ) several good blacksmith in the Berona kingdom as well as the Royal blacksmith, but there's something lacking...

Yup... something... I guess, it's the mood? The type of people where he thought he can get along with? I guess that's

what my other self is looking for.

Well, he might be also looking for those he can trust with. With all the rare and ultimate rare ore and materials we have he might be acting cautious~

Well, that's where our difference lies with. Cautious or what not, I'm pretty confident in my eyes and instinct. I can guess who to trust with.

"Papa?"

Oh! This is bad, I think I was drowned in my thoughts that I forgot about them~

"It's nothing~ Well, let's just walk around for now~"

I said while wearing a smile. Although I know the stores location from the map, there are too many of them.

I don't feel like going around all of them, it's a pain after all.

After walking for a few minutes, we entered a place filled with food stalls.

Fragrant and delicious foods waffled through the air, tickling my taste buds. If not for my excellent poker face, I think I already might be drooling right now.

In the first place, I still haven't had my fill so maybe, probably.....I'll try each stalls...?

"hm! Smells good?!"

At my side, Iona was looking excitedly towards the stalls. Smiling wryly while looking at my cute daughter, I walked towards one of the food stall and bought food worth of three people.

Skewered Meat, Meat Balls, Kebab looking foods and many others. I've got dizzy just by looking at the delicious bastards in my hands. They really did smell so enticing!

Especially the taste of this Kebab look-alike is simply too amazing! And this pancake like dessert.... uum, it's basically heaven on earth! It's too delicious!

Truthfully, I'm not sure if it's because of the food or was it because I was too hungry, but I still wasn't satisfied after finishing an entire 4 person worth of dishes.

Even Iona and Ashley beside me couldn't help but indulge their selves in happiness from eating.

At first, Ashley was quite stubborn and reluctant but after a few while, just like Iona, her stomach seemed like a wormhole, endlessly sucking all the foods.

.... Because I'm a gentleman, I shouldn't tell that to the ladies, though~

We visited more than ten stalls until our stomach finally gotten satisfied. Satisfied, we stopped at the center of the plaza beside a huge fountain to rest.

Looking at the surroundings, I couldn't help but gasp in amazement, once again. I'm really in a different world, is what I thought.

Street stalls overflow, making the street there squeezed on the center.

Horse carriage and other odd looking animals - powered cart are going here and there. People here were wearing odd and funny looking clothes. There were also people who only wore brown leather, cheap looking clothes.

Although I have already went to various places filled with people back in the real world, ( Well, I've already forgot

how long ago that is though ).... but this is really too different.

The street here is very clean although there are many people staying here. There was also no body of dead animals lying around. The people, although they wore cheap and ragged looking clothes, their appearance were very high

class.... meaning, even the least looking woman was still considered cute and pretty.

But what caught my attention weren't them but the carriages that were pulled by people wearing collars.

Yes! Collars!

It's not like their animals you know! Well, there were people who have animal parts. Yes! Those very famous..... KEMONOMIMIS!!!

D-damn it! W, why are they doing that to the sacred KEMONOMIMIS!!! I, it's not like they're slaves or anything!......

eh, right, slaves they....

"Hey Ashley..." Struck by realization, I called at the girl who was more informed on this world than me,

"...Are those people, you know wearing collars...slaves?"

"Hm? Ah yes young master." Surprised by my sudden question, Ashley's body slightly jolted before answering.

"Why are there slaves here? Ah, I mean is slavery legal in here?" I asked.

"Well, sort of."

"Sort of?"

"In our kingdom, I mean in the Berona Kingdom, Slavery isn't really welcomed. More like, if you are caught selling slaves then you will most likely be imprisoned and punished. However, in this kingdom, slavery is legalized. Slaves like debt slaves, war slaves or monster slaves those are permitted by the kingdom." Ashley explained.

So that's how it is... fumu, for the kingdom to allow slavery... well, not like I can intervene though~

Even though I find it outrageous to treat the sacred kemonomimis like that, I can't do anything to it.

Just like the saying goes ' When in Rome, do what romans do'.

Looking around, I noticed a carriage coming from the downtown drop its speed to match the walking speed of the pedestrians.

When the carriage passed in front of me, I saw around 10 women slaves inside however, when I noticed the one in the deepest part, I couldn't help but trembled.

"...M-meirin?!"
