Feng Wu and Jier had made a lot of headway with Mrs. Malins murder and were now currently waiting for soone. Jier didnt say who and Feng Wu didnt ask. This ant Feng Wu didnt have anything to do other than idle around the inn.
Feng Wu developed a good relationship with Matron La from having lived in the inn and interacting with the older woman. Matron La even sewed the pretty purple skirt Feng Wu was wearing.
Because Feng Wu was being idle, Matron La pulled her along and pushed her out of the inn saying, Go. Shop. There are a lot of specialty vendors around Ri-Frost. So many pretty clothes and accessories. Youre a girl, youll love them.
Feng Wu was confused. Why did being a girl an she had to like them? Still she did as told and went shopping. She walked around the streets with no destination in mind. There werent many people out, but those walking around left heavy footprints in the snow. Her martial arts were strong so her footsteps were light, barely leaving a mark in the snow.
Hey did you hear? XX shop has a new line of clothing out. Theyre made of special material that repel magical attacks. And they look really stylish too! Wanna go see? asked Lu.
Oh my god yeah. Theyre gorgeous. Im going to make sure my dad gets one, replied Lucy.
too! I asked my mom to get one. Theyre a limited edition so theyre in high demand. Theyll run out if you dont get them soon.
Oh hey Lucielle![notes] yelled out Lu and Lucy to another girl across the street.
Feng Wu was close enough to overhear their conversation. They went on and on about clothes
Feng Wu was told to go shop for clothes and accessories but she didnt know where the shops were. The girls in front seed like they were going to buy so, so she decided to follow them.
Lucy you get the feeling soones following us? asked Lucielle.
Yes.. .oh I my god I hope its not the serial killer thats been murdering pretty girls! Lucy cried out in alarm. Her pretty face puckered up in fright.
Honestly what are you two so afraid of! If youre not sure, then just turn around and look! Although Lu was scared as well, she was the most daring of the three girls so it was only natural she would be the one to turn around and check.
She was stunned by the sight: an adorably cute brunette! The brunette wore a flower pin in her waist length hair. The skirt she had on was a light purple voluminous one, and her eyes, her eyes were like black pearls. She was simply too adorable!
Who is that?! Shes way too cute! Ive never seen her before.
The others turned to look at Lus cry.
Yeah, yeah, crazy cute. But why is she following us? Both Lucy and Lucielle cried out in alarm. They were just ordinary school girls, why would anyone want to follow them?
Maybe shes just headed in the sa direction. Lets not worry about it and just keep walking. Despite this the other two still occasionally looked back every few seconds. They finally reached the store they were talking about earlier. Lucielle quickly pulled her two friends inside, trying to shake the brunette off.
Feng Wu had tuned the girls conversation out so ti ago, but she followed behind when she saw them go into the shop.
The three friends were quite surprised that the brunette followed them inside, however they quickly relaxed once they saw her browsing sowhere else in the shop.
They scolded themselves for being silly gooses. It only looked like the brunette was behind them the entire ti because she was headed in the sa direction! The shop was very popular after all. All three thought: wed be a laughingstock if anyone knew about this.. .
In fact, they were correct! Feng Wu had been following them.
A clerk, seeing Feng Wu browse through the clothes, imdiately approached with a wide smile on her face. Greetings young lady! These are the new styles that ca in recently. Theyre made of special material that conform to the wearers body, guaranteed to be a perfect fit! The material also resists magical attacks. Its truly wonderful! Very cost-effective! said the clerk, extolling on the benefits of the new clothes.
What do you an, resists magical damage? Now Feng Wu was curious. She looked at the clothes on the rack more seriously.
The question didnt faze the clerk one bit. She replied, Yes if provides a minor layer of protection, without skipping a beat.
Just a minor layer of protection? Feng Wu frowned, thinking that the item wasnt as good as expected.
Eh! Well.. . what you say is true.. . This was the first ti the clerk was at a loss for words.
Most of the middle schoolers that ca ca to buy clothes. The damage mitigation part of it was just a gimmick; no one really took it seriously. Honestly, what were the odds of them encountering a magic battle?
Would you like to try it on? The clerk wasnt sure if the girl in front of her was there to cause trouble or there to actually buy sothing, but regardless she was a clerk and she was required to smile as long as the custor was in front of her.
OK. Feng Wu nodded her head and took a couple of items to the changing room.
The clerk was relieved. Standing and smiling in front of a girl with such a deadpan expression was intense! The pressure was too much!
Feng Wu tried on the clothes. They fit well and looked good even if the defense was low.
How much? This was the first ti Feng Wu bought her own clothes. Before this Auntie Lian prepared everything for her. After Auntie Lian it was Jier and the shopping spree. The excitent she felt over shopping on her own for the first ti didnt show on her blank face at all.
Its fifty gold! Very inexpensive! The clerk wasnt exaggerating, fifty gold was relatively inexpensive for a garnt woven out of magic material. Given how precious and rare magic material was, the amount in the garnt was severely watered down, thus the low cost.
So expensive! She and Jier made 500 gold from swindling the girl at the jewelry shop but they had to spend 200 gold for the transport circle to Ri-Frost. That left them with 300 to split between them, so Feng Wu right now only had 150 gold on her.
