The Forbidden Magic Laws of a Fallen Princess

At that moment, I answered nonchalantly.

That's right. If they seem indifferent, the staff will definitely pay more attention.

So my current attitude proves that I have plenty of money; it's just a matter of whether your store has a lot of clothes and whether they suit me.

"Oh, yes, yes, we'll go pick out some clothes for you right away."

"Oh, right."

I suddenly realized the purpose of my selection. That's right, I actually wanted to choose a noble outfit for an auction, not the kind of revealing, backless dress for a banquet. So, I had to tell them in advance, just in case they gave me the same kind of clothes.

"Hmm, what's wrong, miss?"

"What I need are clothes that I can use to buy treasures, not some useless ones."

When I spoke, I emphasized the word "treasure" very much. If I hadn't said it that way, they might not have understood anything, or they might have known that I was just an ordinary person attending the banquet.

Sure enough, their eyes lit up instantly after I mentioned the word "treasure," and they nodded at me.

"Bring those clothes over."

As she spoke, the female shop manager addressed the several shop assistants who were still selecting aristocratic clothing.

"Oh well."

After waiting for about ten minutes, they finally produced seven or eight completely different pieces of clothing and brought them to my side.

Two of the items were more unisex and were trousers, while the rest were indeed the kind of pleated dresses worn by the aristocracy.

And the workmanship, wow, it's really quite good, so naturally the price should be quite expensive as well.

Finally, I was drawn to that dark blue dress. Indeed, the dress was quite dark in color, because aristocratic clothing was mainly red, blue, and beige. Men's clothing might have black, but women's clothing would never have it.

However, I now need to choose a dark-colored outfit.

Because if I were to sneak into the underground level to rescue Barbiefen, the daughter of William, the dwarf coachman, I would have to do it this way. Otherwise, if I wore red, gold, and white clothes, I wouldn't be able to hide at all, and I would definitely be discovered and caught as soon as I went in.

"I'll take this one."

As I spoke, I pointed to the dark blue aristocratic robe.

"Ok, no problem."

The female store manager then gestured for them to enter and went to a lounge to wait.

Why wait in the lounge? Actually, the aristocratic clothing here is mostly samples, and naturally it cannot be worn by the nobles who come to buy clothes.

Unlike our world, where a piece of clothing might be tried on by several or even a dozen people before it can be sold.

And so the aristocratic clothing in the store is naturally all custom-made.

So it took quite a long time.

And so, her group of female shop assistants got busy, picked up all sorts of rulers, measured and recorded the dimensions of various parts of my body, and then sent them to the clothing production room next door, where they began to work diligently and thoughtfully on the garments.

And this aristocratic attire, naturally, was not what I had imagined.

Although at least 80% of them are the same, she will also design some patterns according to my body posture and temperament. If it is not suitable, there will be a free opportunity to remake it. The rejected clothes will be sold in discount fashion stores, and naturally the price will be much cheaper than in these aristocratic clothing stores.

However, this place is quite nice. There seems to be a musician outside playing a soft and beautiful piano, and there's a bed by the window with a plate of very sweet fruit.

All of this is free to enjoy.

Since we have to wait anyway, we might as well relax for a bit, and then we can recharge our energy for the evening so we can focus on finding out where that little girl Barbiefen is being held.

Then he leaned back on the bed, like an old man with his legs crossed, and enjoyed the fresh fruit.

The fruit was naturally fresh, at most it was brought in yesterday, because it was really wishful thinking to think that I could eat fruit before I defeated the giant black lizard.

The fruit was very juicy and sweet; indeed, the service and attitude of this store were excellent.

And just like that, I finished the whole plate of fruit in no time.

After finishing, naturally, I was already about 80% full, but now I was stuffed from all the fruit and felt so comfortable that I fell asleep very quickly.

I don't know how long I slept, but suddenly someone touched my shoulder.

"Miss, it's getting late, you should get up."

"Ok?"

Finally, I rubbed my eyes and slowly opened them, only to find the female shop manager looking at me with great concern.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

I asked quickly.

"I'm sorry, sir. Actually, there's less than an hour left before the area where the treasures are sold closes for entry. If you continue to sleep, you might miss your chance."

"ah?!!"

Without saying a word, I sat bolt upright on the bed.

I didn't expect to sleep for so long this time... I really didn't realize it.

"It's alright, there's still time. The clothes are already made. We'll help you try them on right away, is that alright?"

At this moment, the female store manager hurriedly asked me.

"Um... okay, thank you for your help."

And so, with the help of about five or six of them, I was dressed in the aristocratic clothes they had chosen for me, in the style and colors I had selected.

Chapter Ninety-Six: Heading to Duke Harman's Residence

However, these aristocratic clothes were quite complicated to put on, and it took about five or six minutes to complete the process.

And there's also a free makeup service here.

Honestly... I've basically never worn makeup since I was a child, because cosmetics are bad for your health. Besides, my skin and face are naturally fair, and I'm pretty, so I'm stunningly beautiful even without makeup.

However, I think I'll look even prettier if these professionals do my makeup, so I'll just quietly wait for them to finish.

And so, I closed my eyes again, just like a doll, waiting for them to be finished.

"Wow!"

Five minutes later, a girl's voice suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"Ok?"

That moment startled me awake, as I had been resting with my eyes closed.

"Miss, you are so beautiful..."

"Oh, really? Thank you..."

As I spoke, I turned my head toward the long, full-length mirror in the distance.

After seeing it, I was also astonished and my eyes widened.

"is that a lie……"

Is this...is this really me? I'm so beautiful! Even the goddess Lanis would pale in comparison if she stood next to me...

No! It's far from it.

I feel like a goddess has descended to earth; I'm so beautiful I want to kiss myself.

"Miss...you are absolutely gorgeous."

Even the female store manager couldn't help but praise me.

"That's alright, I should go now. How much was it in total?"

Seriously, there's only half an hour left before the venue for the banquet and underground auction closes down. If this continues, all my efforts will be for nothing.

Therefore, we must get there before they release the people.

"Uh, okay... I'll calculate it now."

So, the female shop manager next to me took a small notebook and started drawing quickly on it. Finally, after seeing the price, she breathed a sigh of relief and looked at me.

"A total of thirty-two silver coins. Since you are so beautiful, I'll accept thirty silver coins from you."

At that moment, the female shop manager looked at me as if her eyes were brimming with affection.

"Oh well."

This place seems to be a den of wolves, not a safe place to stay, so I need to leave as soon as possible.

And so, I grabbed a handful of thirty gleaming silver coins from my small backpack that I had placed on the ground, put them in her palm, and then quickly left.

However, with such beautiful clothes, such good service, and a comfortable environment to fall asleep in, thirty silver coins are really not expensive, but they are not cheap either.

Seriously, if we were living a normal life... these thirty silver coins would be enough for almost a year's expenses.

So I kept walking forward, and of course, all the merchants who were about to pack up and go home, as well as the people collecting leftover stock, all looked at me.

It's probably because I'm so beautiful.

Hehehe, God has bestowed such beauty upon me, no... it should be my mother, the goddess Shidou, who has bestowed such beauty upon me. I am really too sorry.

However, people, if they are gold, they will always shine, hehehe.

And so, for some reason, I started to become a little arrogant.
