Volume 8 Chapter 5 PaRT 9
I can only hope that the fact that I have paid so much to obtain Vesta is not going to cause me any problems or conflicts in the long run.
「It’s fine because it’s Master.」
Roxanne seem to support my idea, too. Looks like there won’t be any problems in that regard after all.
「Then, does Roxanne-san have one, too?」
「Yes, I have mine since quite a while ago, actually.」
Roxanne pulls the hem of her trousers up and shows her Sacrificial Misanga to Vesta. The Sacrificial Misanga is tied on her gorgeous foot. It’s making her ankle shine. Should I head to the bed with them both right now?
「Ok, wait here for a minute.」
「Okay. Umm, thank you very much.」
Vesta bows down to me again. The place where I am going is not the bedroom, but the storeroom at the back of the house. The item that I am looking for in there is the Iron Sword that I have placed there long ago and almost forgotten about it since I had pretty much no use for it. I take it out and bring it back with me to the living room where the girls were patiently waiting for me.
「For the time being, you can this sword. It might not be the best one out there, but it should be enough for you for now.」
When I return to the living room, I pass the Iron Sword to Vesta. There was a time when I was wearing this Iron Sword around on my waist when I was going to the Labyrinth, but after a while I stopped doing that altogether, so now is the perfect chance to give this sword a second chance at being useful for something.
If Vesta is going to use a two-handed sword, then it’s obvious that she is going to use the Steel Sword. But if I give Vesta the steel sword, that would mean that I would have to carry the Iron Sword for a time again, which would in turn mean that Vesta would be having a better equipment than me, her master.
Doing something like that would probably not be a good idea, since it might cause others to question my authority over her.
「Okay. Uhm...」
Vesta anxiously looks toward Roxanne, most likely because she was seeking her approval to take the Iron Sword from me, but personally I don’t see why she would have to do that, since I don’t have any problems with it. This Iron Sword is an entire tier below the Steel Sword when it comes to quality, so I’m not going to lose anything by giving it to her.
「It’s fine. Because it’s Master.」
It seems to be alright, exactly as it should be.
「Well then, shall we be on our way?」
We are going out shopping for some daily necessities for Vesta. Facing a wall in the living room, I cast 「Warp」. This is going to be the second time, so I hope Vesta won’t have any problems going through the portal.
Our first stop is going to be the Adventurers Guild.
「「Yes, master!」」
「Did we forget to buy something?」
「No, this is something meant for me.」
「I see.」
I paid for all of our things, while Roxanne paid for the additional thing from her own money. It costs about one silver coin and it seems to be... a brush?
「This brush is a present from me.」
「Ahh, thank you very much, Roxanne!」
「I am glad I still had some money left. Today, I also bought something for Miria and Sherry as well.」
So the thing that Roxanne bough was a hair brush for Vesta? How very nice of her to be so considerate of the newest harem member. Roxanne shows it to Vesta for a brief moment, then puts it back in Vesta’s backpack.
We head to the clothing store next.
「Do you have any clothes that would fit this girl’s size?」
「Yes, I believe we do. This way, please.」
After I asked the shop clerk if they had anything that would suit Vesta, we were then led to the inner part of the shop. They seem to have clothes for her. Good.
「These ones right here?」
「Yes, the clothes that we have on display right here are the biggest ones that we have available. They might not look like it, but they will become fairly large when worn.」
「They will?」
「Yes, they will. Unfortinately, we don’t have many customers from the Dragonkin tribe, so we don’t have that much variety when it comes to the clothes that the members of that race could wear, so allow me to apologize for that.」
I don’t know how far this inner part of the shop extends, but there seems to be a fair number of clothes being stored here, and they still say that they don’t have that big of a selection when it comes to the members of the Dragonkin tribe? Is it similar to how even the Dwarven adults need to wear clothing designed for Human children because there is not that many clothes that would otherwise suit them?
The male slave from the Dragonkin tribe that I saw back at the auction was huge, too, so I guess all the members of the Dragonkin tribe must be quite tall.
「With these many clothes to choose from it’s not bad at all, so don’t worry, I think we’re going to find something that’s going to suit you just fine.」
Roxanne says while she steps forward.
Roxanne’s eyes seemed to flash when we heard there were not that many clothes that the members of the Dragonkin race can choose from, and if my hunch is correct then her switch was probably switched right at that very moment.
