A lady in her thirties, who appeared to be the store proprietor, broke out in a chilly sweat when she noticed Philip.
“… Is that younger man the lover of Lisriel Joseph?”
It was an absurd misunderstanding, however she couldn’t assist however suppose that method.
In any other case, there was no cause for Lisriel Joseph to personally deal with all the garments chosen by the younger man.
There have been many costly objects on this boutique that even nobles would discover burdensome.
Philip regarded on the hostess and spoke.
“Oh, good to satisfy you. This younger girl right here is searching for some garments. Might you please suggest just a few outfits which are snug for on a regular basis put on, excluding something with a corset?”
The shopkeeper couldn’t assist however discover that he was essentially the most good-looking man she had seen shortly. She shortly composed herself, realizing that saying something unsuitable might result in retaliation from Miss. Joseph, the top of the Joseph Affiliation.

“Do you see something you want?”
“It looks as if there’s nothing appropriate for me to put on.”
Lots of the clothes showcased within the boutique had been designed for grownup ladies, not ladies like Lua who had been nonetheless rising.
“Simply select one thing that catches your eye. As soon as you purchase it, we are able to make the required changes to make sure it suits you completely.”
Philip settled himself on the sofa inside the shop, providing his steering.
The shopkeeper, greatly surprised by his phrases, blinked in disbelief.
‘What did he simply say?’
It was a comment that appeared oblivious to the world of style. Altering ready-to-wear garments? By that logic, why would kids’s clothes even exist? Caught between skilled satisfaction and the risk to her livelihood, she held again her feedback with a disheartened expression.
“It seems to be like one thing a princess would put on.”

Due to this fact, cute garments appeared to go well with her higher than extra mature apparel.
“Do you might have a becoming room the place I can strive on just a few outfits?”
“We’ve a dressing room arrange over there. By any likelihood, do you might have a maid…?”Ñøv€lRapture marked the preliminary internet hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.

“…”
Philip silently gazed on the girl. His eyes conveyed the message, ‘There isn’t a maid-like individual, so am I anticipated to help her with altering?’
“I might be glad to help you. Please come this fashion, miss…”
Lua adopted the woman and went behind the scenes the place the becoming room was situated.
She tried on a number of outfits, finally deciding on a costume with a polka dot sample, a one-piece costume adorned with frills and a scarf, and comfy sleepwear.
Philip warmly smiled at Lua as she emerged carrying the chosen costume.
“You already know, it will be even cuter when you tied your hair up.”
As males age, they usually grow to be extra attuned to their female facet, growing a keenness for delicate hobbies or possessions.
Knitting, gardening, and even elevating pets, amongst different issues.
Naturally, Philip was no exception to this development.
Feeling as if he had been out purchasing along with his niece, he determined to raise the temper even additional.
“Come over right here for a second.”
“Sure.”

“Hmm.”
The tip consequence was remarkably satisfying.

“It’s like I’m another person.”

The kid was distinctive from the very starting, not solely by way of her well-nourished look but additionally in the way in which she carried herself. Moreover, her naturally fairly face was complemented by tastefully chosen apparel, making her actually cute, like a meticulously crafted doll.
“I would really like the whole lot to be delivered, please.”
As Philip spoke, the hostess nodded in understanding. At that second, Philip’s eyes caught sight of a costume in a stupendous shade of blue. It was an beautiful piece, adorned with jewels and lace.
Magic was the phenomenon the place mana undergoes adjustments in motion and properties, ruled by particular legal guidelines established by means of spells and incantations.
Philip, who gave the impression to be a swordsman, had breathed the standard of “flexibility” into the refined aura with out using any spells or incantations.
For anybody well-versed in magical information, it will be inconceivable to imagine what Philip had achieved with out witnessing it firsthand.
“As I suspected, being a former mage permits you to immediately grasp what I’ve carried out.”
It was a barely gratifying feeling. Philip stroked his chin, exuding satisfaction.
“Properly, then, how did you do it?”
“If I don’t let you know, will you refuse to promote the merchandise?”
“Rattling it! That’s not honest!”
Younson’s steps pounded the bottom as if his physique was ablaze. The feeling was immensely satisfying.
“We’re not precisely shut buddies, so I can’t casually reveal that info, can I? How about we begin by looking on the merchandise?”
Philip’s voice carried a delicate insistence, and Younson shortly grasped his intention.
‘Proper. This man desires look, realizing he’ll be a frequent customer.’
“Simply wait a second.”
Regardless of his youthful look, Younson thought Phillip exuded an air of seasoned expertise, and exhaled a sigh earlier than making his method in the direction of the warehouse.
When he returned, he held in his palms a smooth obsidian longsword with a leather-based sheath, accompanied by a pair of leather-based armgurds.
“… I by no means anticipated to promote this. This black magnificence goes by the title ‘Guidemaster,’ a blade like no different for novices. With frequent use, it adapts to its proprietor’s physique, adjusting its size and weight accordingly.”
Younson prolonged the black sword towards Lua, who stood in awe. Then he offered the leather-based armguards.
“These armguards are crafted from wyvern leather-based and imbued with enchanted manticore blood. They supply sturdy safety and might deflect highly effective impacts that may make the sword slip out of your grasp.”
The mere descriptions conveyed the distinctive high quality of these things.
Philip accepted the armguards and sword, securing the longsword at his waist. Nonetheless, as he tried to slip the armguards onto Lua’s wrist, he realized she was attired in a one-piece costume.
He deliberate to come back again for that.
“Rattling it… Neglect the armguards, however there was somebody eyeing that sword. They’re certain to return, inflicting all types of bother.”
“Oh, and there’s yet another factor I’m inquisitive about buying.”
“What now?”
“Among the many swords you might have on the market, do you occur to own any infused with mithril?”
“… No, how did you discover out about that?”
Younson’s pleasure grew to become palpable as he as soon as once more licked his lips. Whereas such an merchandise did certainly exist, only some had been conscious of its existence.
“Might I take a look at it, then?”
After affirming his understanding, Younson briefly disappeared solely to reappear moments later.
He returned, holding a smooth silver sword in his hand. Philip couldn’t assist however let loose a hushed exclamation upon seeing the blade.
‘Certainly, it hasn’t been offered at this stage.’
The sword’s slender and elongated kind resembled a rapier, its beautiful craftsmanship making it appear virtually too stunning for use in sensible fight.
Nonetheless, Philip knew precisely whose palms this sword would fall into.
‘I can’t permit it to finish up within the possession of that deranged half-elf.’
“I’ll take this as effectively.”
“This? This can be a failed piece. It’s embarrassing to even declare it as my creation. It’s a mere object with no magical properties in any way. For those who’re decided to purchase it, I gained’t dissuade you. Simply pay me the worth of the mithril it incorporates.”
‘Promoting that fraudulent merchandise for a cut price?’
Philip expressed his gratitude by barely bowing his head.
“Oh, I intend to offer it as a present to my sister.”
With these phrases, Philip handed a chunk of paper to Younson. It was a promissory notice stating that Joseph Affiliation would deal with the cost for all of the purchases made by this younger man.
“Joseph Affiliation? What precisely do they do? Are they some type of the Aristocracy? They actually give off that impression.”
“… Excuse me, sir, however what sort of institution is it?”
Younson inquired after a second of hesitation. Whether or not it was a secret weapon of a sure kingdom or a member of the famend “Sword Saints Guild,” he was ready to be astonished.
“Are you referring to me? I’m the newly appointed swordsmanship teacher on the Academy. I’ll be visiting ceaselessly, so please chorus from being too disrespectful.”
Philip said as he left Younson’s vintage store.
“A swordsmanship teacher? What a load of nonsense.”
Younson murmured to himself, now left alone.
The abilities demonstrated by Philip had showcased a exceptional and modern utilization of mana, one that might doubtlessly redefine the boundaries of swordsmanship.
“I have to discover out who you actually are.”
He had the intention of discovering out Philip’s true identification by means of his connections.
