Since coming to the city, she has been looking forward to experiencing all that the city has to offer. Being able to walk around the city without being challenged or not having to kill people in the streets is a very novel experience.

She was so happy that she couldn't help humming a little song, and strode down the road with her hands behind her back.

Judging by Cornelia's memory fragments, there is no memory of Kailura. There are only bits and pieces, as if they are meaningless blurs. There is no feeling of attachment or affection. Cornelia, you're a very unhappy child, aren't you? Well, I'll make it both of us have fun.

The blonde girl discovers a stall selling strange dim sum. It looks like cream and fruit sandwiched between a very thin dough.

"Hello. Do you want to give it a try? ”

"What is this?"

"Why, it's a crepe! The hero who invented it a few generations ago sold the formula to my great-grandfather. See? He pointed to the sign. Hero Grandin recognized. ”

"How much?"

"Ordinary people 3 copper coins. Add 1 copper for more fruit. ”

"Do you have any change for gold?"

"Why yes, I had a great day. A pancake with extra fruit for the beautiful lady. ”

Soon Connie receives the crepes and finds a nice little shade to eat underneath. She took a bite and found that the pleasantly creamy taste of whipped cream and the sweetness of fruit were a very nice dining experience. "Wonderful! This can't even compare to sweet dumplings. ”

She ate everything in four bites and washed it off with a piece of apple she bought on the side of the road.

"It's a wonderful city," she said, leaning her arms against the street stalls. She took a bite of the apple. "The economy looks good, everyone is dressed cleanly, although the horses still smell like horses."

"But the city is too big, and the road has no rhythm and no reason! How on earth can I find a tailor and a blacksmith? I should have asked Bertus. ”

She found herself underestimating the city. It doesn't matter if she just wants to hang out. But she has a goal for today.

"What should I do?" She said to herself.

Just as she pondered what to do, she felt her skirt being pulled.

"Beauty, do you want to buy flowers?"

When she turned around, she saw a little girl offering a flower. The flower has bright yellow petals with a blue tip. She was a stranger to it.

"One only costs 1 copper. Very fresh. She said hopefully. Picked it up this morning. ”

Her fingers were dirty, with calluses on her knuckles and fingertips. She has beautiful brown hair and freckles on her face. Although her clothes were ragged and a tooth had been lost, the little girl's smile was very bright.

"Flowers, huh? Do you know what kind of flower this is? ”

"I don't know. I chose what I could find in the forest. She said in a panic.

Connie accepts the flower and eats it immediately.

"Y-Why did you eat that young lady? Flowers can't be eaten! ”

Well, there are trace amounts of alkaloids, and the taste is similar to that of daffodils, but the color is not right. In fact, I don't know the flowers in her basket. "Do you pick flowers every morning?"

"Yes, ma'am. I only pick fresh ones. Other kids would sell whatever they could find, but my sister said hard work always paid off. ”

"You have a good sister." She patted her on the head. "I'll buy the whole basket. Is that enough? ”

When she saw the gold coin between her fingers, the girl's eyes sparkled. She grabbed it and put it in her pocket, as if she was afraid of losing it.

"No retraction!"

"Aha, it's so much better now! You are a precocious child. I like that. She nodded to herself. Tell me, girl. What is your name? ”

"Sen!"

"All right, Senator. Do you know the city's roads? ”

"I know. I'm familiar with the alleys, the shops, the stalls. The best place to get cheap food! All! ”

"Okay, then show me around the city, there's a coin for you."

"Absolutely!"

"Bring the basket, I want to eat as I go."

The young woman moved on, and the little girls followed her, chattering happily about the city. As she walked, she took some flowers and put them in her mouth, listening to Sen with a smile on her face.

Truly. Even though her heart is cold, she is still soft-hearted towards her children.

After walking for twenty minutes, they came to a small old building with beautiful clothes on display.

Connie was about to go in when she saw Sen awkwardly stopped in front of the door.

"Don't you go in?"

"This ...... It's not a place I can go into. ”

"Nonsense." She grabbed her by the shoulders and walked inside.

The rhythmic jingle of bells on the door frame stopped an old man in fancy costume who was repairing clothes for a mannequin. He looked up from a pair of half-moon-shaped glasses and wrinkled his nose.

"What's that smell?" He frowned when he saw the dirty forest at the door. "Now get out, quiet, quiet."

"Are you going to chase away customers? That's not a good thing. ”

The well-dressed old man lifted his glasses and said, "Oh, Ms. Connie? What wind brought you here? ”

"Oh, you know me?"

"Of course. I remember my regular customers. The old duke often commanded me. Especially his last order, for your debut. Alas, it was not intentional, because the Duchess of Steelheart canceled the order," he said. "Ah, I mourn his passing."

My stepmom looks naughty.

Connie playfully rubbed Sen's hair and smiled. "She's my guide today."

"Hmm...... If she has to be here, then I insist that she sit on the chair over there and not touch anything," he said. "Anything goes. "Got it?"

Connie raised an eyebrow. "I don't like your tone."

"Hmm." You have to understand. I don't care if a wet dog or some arrogant big guy gets into my shop. What matters is my work. He said proudly. Every dress and suit here is made from the best materials, rare and expensive. To use an analogy, destroying any of them is like having some barbarian do something to my daughter. ”

"A person who takes pride in their work," she nodded approvingly. She understands this kind of man. A man who loves his craft more than he loves life, a man who is what she wants. She clasped her palms together and saluted as a sign of respect. "Pleasant! What is your name, sir? ”

The man tugged at his collar and stood proudly. "Exclusive tailoring. Everything here is made and planned by me. There is no ready-made thing! Only make made-to-order goods! ”

"Custom-made, huh? That's nice. I would like to order a set of clothes. Completed and delivered within a week. ”

"Huh? You must be kidding. I've had a backlog for over a year! That's something I can't do. ”

"A hundred gold coins is fine?"

"Even though! I'm going to defend my reputation, ma'am. No amount of money can change that. ”

"Why don't you see what I think?"

The man raised an eyebrow. Looks interested. It's been a boring week, and it doesn't hurt to take a little rest. "I guess it doesn't hurt to pamper old customers."

"Do you have a pen and paper?"

The girl and the old tailor discussed things, and Mori sat in a chair doing nothing and was bored. She turned the gold coin in her little hand and smiled, thinking that she could make a good dinner for her sister and mother.

"Genius!!"

The sudden shouting almost caused her coins to fall. Her heart pounded, and she quickly put it in her pocket.

The man's expression was full of madness and joy. He held the design so carefully that anyone would think it was his child.

"It's beautiful! I've never seen anything like it! He said, looking frantically at the details. Where did you find such a concept? ”

"It's my personal design. Importantly, can you do it? ”

"Yes, yes. Of course! It is my pleasure. ”

"I want the whole thing to be made of silk. White, the pattern is black. The shirt inside should also be white. The lining should be made of gold wire. It would be great if you could order me a nice pair of boots to match. ”

"You. You've gone too far! Where can you find so much silk?! ”

"I'll send it to you by tomorrow. Money is not an issue. Just send me the bill later. All I need is a week to complete. ”

The old man looked at Connie, then at the name of the shop painted on the window, and then at her.

"Ahh Very good. Let's measure it now. I still have to ...... Belch...... Friends ask for help," he sighed. "Do you mind if I share this design with my friends?"

"Can he be trusted? I hope this design is unique to me. ”

"In honor of me as the best tailor in the kingdom."

"Very well, let's do it," she said as he closed the curtains and locked the door.

He unfolded the tape measure and tucked a pen behind his right ear.

"Do you have any requirements? Lapels, pants? Maybe there are some different shades of white accents? ”
