Chapter 8: Shopping
Early the next morning, Leon woke up from his sleep.
"Good morning, Lord Leon!" Vetlill was already standing respectfully on the edge of the bed, with a basin of water and towels on the stool next to her.
"Good morning. Leon yawned, as if he hadn't slept well last night.
But the first time I was in a room with a strange beauty, I was a ghost if I could sleep well.
"Lord Leon, I've already made the washing water, let's wash my face and get dressed first. ”
"Oh, okay. Wait, how do you know where to get the wash?"
"There are other maids in the academy, and I saw that they all went out in the morning to fetch water, so I went with them, and by the way, I also got acquainted with the environment here. With that, Wittelle handed the wrung out towel to Leon.
"Oh, that's right. ”
"Is Lord Leon going to wear a college costume today?" asked Wittelle as she opened the closet and asked Leon.
"Well, yes. ”
"Then please stand up. Vetlielle took Leon's clothes, helped Leon put them on, and finally carefully arranged the collar.
"Lord Leon, alright, I'll make the bed first. Wittelle tidied up Leon's grooming and turned to get ready to make the messy bed.
"The bed will be made later. Leon grabbed Vitrelle's hand, "Let's go eat first, let's go!"
"Oh, okay. Wittelle followed with her head bowed, letting Leon take her hand.
Downstairs, they happened to meet Princess Lia, who also went to breakfast.
"Good morning, Lord Leon!" Ria waved happily at Leon when she saw her.
"Good morning, Princess Liya. ”
"Who is this?" said Leia, seeing Vitrill behind Leon.
"Oh, her name is Vitrelle, and she was the maid I bought yesterday. Leon scratched his head with some embarrassment, for it was probably the only one left with Princess Lia without a servant.
Liya suddenly shook her whole body, looking a little lost.
"What's wrong, isn't it comfortable?" Leon looked at Ria with some surprise.
Liya hurriedly responded, "No, I'm fine. Let's go have breakfast together. He walked forward on his own.
Unbeknownst to Leon, Princess Lea had actually heard his conversation with Kerry about the maid that day. Although Leon didn't think that way.
When Leon and his party came to the cafeteria, they still attracted everyone's attention. However, this time it was not Leon, who was half-elf, who attracted everyone, but Vetel.
Leon also noticed the strange gaze of the crowd, and looked at Victrelle: a thin body, disheveled hair, a slightly dirty face, bare feet, and finally a loose linen jumpsuit. If you stain your face and clothes a little more, it's almost the same as asking for food on the street.
Vitrelle didn't dare to raise her head, she felt that she must have embarrassed Lord Leon now, and she was a little uneasy.
"Sit down and I'll go buy breakfast." Leon didn't expect this to happen either, and in order to try not to embarrass Vetlill so much, he had to do it.
"But......," Wittelle must have said that there was no master who went to buy breakfast for the slaves.
But Leon didn't give Vitrill a chance.
"It's okay, you sit down first. ”
Lea also pulled Vitrelle and walked over to the empty table and sat down.
"Mistress Lea, is it really okay for you to sit with me?" Vetlielle was a little apprehensive, after all, she heard Leon call Lea a princess. And now, Leah is sitting next to her.
"It's okay to call me Lea, I'm just an ordinary person, maybe only Lord Leon treats me as a princess in this world. Lea gave a warm smile, a smile that only comes when talking about someone she likes.
"Has Mistress Leon known Leon for a long time?"
"It's not a long time since I met at the beginning of school. ”
But when Mistress Leon talked about it, she felt very relieved, and thought that Mistress Lea and Leon-sama were old friends. ”
"Really?" Liya didn't notice it herself, and since that day, her psychology has quietly begun to change. In the past, Liya felt that there was no hope in her life, and she lived in fear and humiliation every day. She cursed the injustice of fate, desperate to end this meaningless life. But now, as long as she thinks of Leon, she is very relieved, it is the luckiest thing in her life to meet Leon, and Leon is her hope to live.
Leon was relieved to see that Ria didn't dislike Vitrelle because she was a slave.
"What are you talking about?" Leon already had breakfast in his hand.
"Secret. Lea smiled playfully at Leon and helped take the breakfast and put it on the table.
Leon froze, for he had rarely seen Leah smile like that, and how beautiful her heartfelt smile was. Leon thought to himself: Perhaps, something good happened to her.
"Vetel, we'll have class later, and you'll go back after breakfast, and I'll go back to you at noon. Leon said as he ate his breakfast.
"Yes, Lord Leon. ”
Leon was still completely uninterested in class, and his mind was full of what had happened in the cafeteria this morning.
"Alright, decided!" Leon muttered to himself.
Kerry smiled when he saw Leon's slightly darkened eyes.
"Brother, didn't you sleep after that?" While Hawke wasn't paying attention, Kerry secretly struck up a conversation with Leon.
"You mean to take me to that kind of slave market!" Leon was slightly annoyed.
"But in terms of results, it's not bad. Kerry continued to laugh wickedly.
"Too lazy to talk to you. Although Leon didn't know why this guy was laughing so aggressively today, he must have something to do with him, so he simply ignored him.
At night, Wittelle was cleaning her room. Everything in the room has been tidied up by her, and it looks very tidy. She really does her best to do her job as a maid.
"Isn't this book a little strange, Lord Leon?" Wittelle pointed to a book on the table.
Leon looked at it reassuringly as Wittelle pointed out, wasn't this the same "Holy Canon" that he had given him when he bought the "Guardian of Light" scroll.
Leon picked it up and flipped through it, but he didn't find any difference from a normal book.
"What's the strange?" Leon asked, scratching his head, to Vetel, who hadn't found anything strange about the book.
"I can't tell, I just think it's weird, and there is a faint chill. Wittelle leaned the broom against her chest and stared at the ceiling, trying to remember how she felt when she thought the book was strange.
"Ignore this for now, we're going to go out later, you can prepare first. ”
"Oh, but I don't have anything to prepare. Vetlill lowered her head and whispered. After all, he had a torn jumpsuit all over his body, and nothing else.
"Well, let's wait for Princess Liya to come over. Leon realised his mistake and was slightly embarrassed.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
"It's coming!" Leon stood up happily.
Vitrelle opened the door, and it turned out to be Princess Leia.
"Princess Lia, good evening. Vetelle saluted Leah.
"Good evening, no need to salute. Seeing that Vittell was still the same as she was during the day, Ria thought to herself, "That guy can't have forgotten?" and gave Leon a look of what was going on.
Leon hurriedly explained, "Princess Liya, we don't have the tools for you to dress up here. ”
"Really, follow me. ”
"Wait, Princess Liya, I'm still cleaning, where are we going?"
Liya couldn't help but say something, and pulled Vetelle towards her dormitory.
After a long time, Leah finally returned with Vetel.
"Come in. Ria pulled Vitrelle, who was hiding behind her, in.
Wittel's face was slightly red, and she buried her head low, very shy.
It turned out that Wittelle had already dressed up. The original loose hair has been coiled up, and the face has been cleaned. also put on some makeup a little, and wore a pair of delicate shoes on his feet, but the clothes were still the original torn onesie.
Leon was stunned. At this time, Vetel, although not dazzling, is a unique and pure beauty.
"What do you think, Lord Leon?" Wittelle was a little embarrassed by Leon's eyes, and although this was not the way she looked at herself in the slave market, she still felt very shy. And he was dressed for the first time in his life, and he was eager to know what Leon said about him.
"This hairstyle suits you perfectly. Leon finally came to his senses, "Let's go." ”
"Lord Leon, where are we going?"
"You'll know when you go. ”
It turned out that they were going to a clothing store.
Leon takes Leah and Wittelle into a lavishly decorated clothing store.
It was the first time for Vitrelle to enter such an occasion, and she followed closely behind Leon, for fear that she would suddenly not see Leon.
Wittelier found that the clothes bought here were all women's styles, and they were all very high-end. "It should be that Duke Liya wants to buy clothes. Vetlill thought to herself.
"Is this pretty?" said Liya, holding a pure white lace dress in the middle of the hall, and gestured to herself.
"Well, it's beautiful. Leon exclaimed.
"This young lady really has an eye, this is the latest style launched by our store, it must look good when you wear it!" The clerk picked up the treasure of his town store when he saw Liya for the first time, and he must be rich or expensive.
"I think so, too. Leah smiled happily, "Vitrelle, come over here." Ria beckoned to Wittel.
"I guess you want me to help you get it. Vetlill thought as she walked over.
But Leah directly compared the clothes to Wittelil.
"It's really pretty, isn't it, Leon?" Before she knew it, Liya had begun to stop adding the word "adult" when she called Leon.
"Well, it's very pretty!" Leon nodded.
"Princess Lia, get out of the way, it'll stain this dress!" Wittelle hurriedly pushed Ria away.
"It's okay, because Leon came to me today to help you choose clothes for the evening. ”
"What?" Wittelle couldn't believe her ears, was this to buy clothes for herself?
"Let's try it. Ria took Wittel by the way, and took another red dress of the same style into the fitting room.
Leon waited outside alone. The clerk had an incredible feeling when he saw him, was this guy really going to buy a high-end dress for a slave?
"Come out!" said Leia, who lifted the curtain and Wittelle slowly stepped out of the fitting room.
At this moment, all the people closed their mouths. At this time, Wittelle was dazzling as much as anyone, exuding an elegant and pure white aura against the white dress, catching up with Liya in a red dress. The two walked towards Lyon left and right and became the focus of the audience.
"How's it going, Lord Leon?" asked Vitrelle shyly to Leon.
At this time, Leon had no idea how to describe Vetel's beauty in words. I didn't expect that dressing up a little and changing the dress would have such an effect.
"Hmm. Very beautiful. ”
At this time, the clerk asked Leon, "My lord, do you want to buy this dress?"
"Well, how much?"
"My lord, this dress is the treasure of our town store, it was designed by the store manager himself, the original price is 10 gold coins, now I will give you a discount, how about receiving 8 gold coins for you?"
As soon as Wittelle heard the price, she first refused: "Lord Leon, this dress is too expensive, let's change it." ”
"It's okay, Vitrelle deserves the dress. ”
"But it's not good to work in this dress. Still, Vitrelle tried to convince Leon.
"Then let's buy two more maid outfits!" Riya wittily suggested.
"Well, that's it. ”
Leon was about to ask the clerk about the maid's outfit when the clerk spoke first.
"My lord, I'm very sorry, but we sell dresses in our store, not maid dresses. The clerk looked sorry.
"That's right. I can only go to another house. "Lyon was a little disappointed.
"If this young lady were to be found, there might not be a suitable maid outfit in the whole of Rafael City. After all, I've never seen a maid with such stature. ”
"Ah, what should I do?" Leon asked Lea for help, and he really wouldn't solve these situations.
"Well, I think so. So, can you help us customize two maid outfits?" asked Liya to the clerk.
Suddenly, everyone suddenly realized, why didn't they think of it?
"There should be no problem. What kind of fabric do you need for a maid's outfit?"
"Just the most ordinary ones, the same ones as other maids. Vitrelle told the clerk that she couldn't afford to let Leon spend too much money anymore.
"Well, okay, please come to our fitting room, we need to measure it. ”
"Okay. Wittelle followed the clerk to the fitting room.
"Thank you for your help. Leon said to Lea embarrassedly.
"Nothing. But you're a really weird person. However, I love it. Leah put her hands behind her back, propped herself up on the countertop.
"Why?" Leon didn't understand why Lea said he was strange.
"There is no why. I think Vetlill might not want to buy anything else, so let's just help her pick out her shoes. Lea suggested to Leon.
"Okay, but do you know the size?"
"Of course, Wittelle came out in my shoes. ”
"Oh, let's go. It was then that Leon remembered that Wittel's shoes were Riya's.
After Leon and Lea had picked out their shoes, Wittelle had already measured her size and came out of the fitting room.
"Oh, it's time to change this dress. When Lea saw Vetel, she suddenly realized that she was wearing the same red dress.
"This dress suits you very well, so let's wear it like this. Leon was slightly embarrassed and turned his head to look away.
"Really, thank you!" Lea looked very happy, she didn't expect Leon to buy clothes for her.
"My lord, it will take three days to get the custom-made maid suit, please pay it together or separately. ”
"Let's pay for it. ”
"Okay, you come with me. The clerk led Leon to the cash counter.
"It's good to meet Leon. "Leah and Wittelle stood together.
"Hmm. ”
Back in the dormitory, it was already late at night.
Wittelle was lying on the bed with the bag of her gown, feeling that something was wrong. When I opened the bag, I found that in addition to the white dress, there were two more pairs of delicate shoes.
"Today is probably the happiest day since birth. Wittelle thought to herself, and gradually entered the dream fragrance.
