Jobless Reincarnation: Live Seriously Even Without Transfer Events

The boss turned his back to us, swung his arm, which was as thick as a telephone pole, and then got into the carriage and left.

This is the first time I've ever thought someone could be so handsome.

I think I just saw some wooden planks. Hilfi and I went into the warehouse and carried the planks out.

The wooden board was small, one meter long and one meter wide, which is only about one-third the size of a regular blackboard.

This size is perfect for making samples.

Next, Hilfi and I need to go to the Duchy of Basheland.

I discussed with her that we would set off tomorrow morning. Afterwards, we went to the Magic Guild, booked a carriage to the Duchy of Basheland for tomorrow morning, and asked for a map of the Duchy of Basheland.

With the token given to me by Merlin, I feel that everything is very convenient. Seeing the object is like seeing the person. As long as I show the ring given to me by Merlin, I can use almost all the resources of the Magic Guild at will.

I remember the city that the boss pointed out to us, Rosenberg, the second largest city in Basheland. On the way to Charia, Bruno mentioned that Rosenberg was one of the largest cities in the Duchy of Basheland, and it was said that more than half of the Duchy of Basheland's income came from magical items exported to the Kingdom of Asura through this city.

On the map, Luxembourg in the Duchy of Bachelard is much further north than Charia. Charia's winters are already unbearably cold, let alone Luxembourg's.

After lunch, Hilfi and I went to the street outside the school to buy warm clothes.

To be precise, this was a time that Silphie and I could consider a date.

Walking down the street, passersby cast strange glances at us, but Silphie and I had gotten used to it. Now, we walked hand in hand through the crowd like any ordinary couple.

Along the way, we looked at many shops, and the clothes inside were of varying quality. Some were too thin, some were too ugly, and some shop owners even kicked us out as soon as they saw Shilufi's green hair.

Hilfi no longer showed the self-blame she had before when we were treated unfairly, as if "we were being looked at differently because of her." Instead, she comforted me and encouraged me, saying that things would get better eventually.

Finally, we arrived at a very high-end shop. This was a shop exclusively for the Asura nobles. I had seen similar shops in Roya before. Those shops were called "special supply" shops. It was perfectly reasonable for a "noble" like me, bearing the title of "Bereas," to come to a special supply shop of the Asura nobles.

Across from this shop is the official store of the Asura royal family. For an ordinary "noble" like me, if I were caught by the royal family for going into such a store to buy something, they might just accuse me of "great disrespect".

Kidding.

Both shops had customers coming and going, but one was just a bit more upscale than the other.

"Hello, two guests, is there anything you need?"

As soon as we stepped into the store, the manager greeted us warmly, a stark contrast to the previous stores.

"Do you have any warm clothes? We need to go to a city in the north tomorrow."

"Oh, yes, this way please."

This high-class shop has a much wider variety of clothes than in Roya. I saw more than a dozen kinds of warm robes for magicians, as well as swordsmen's robes, noble formal wear, and so on.

Not only is the fabric soft and smooth to the touch, but the embroidery on it is also very delicate.

There were a few clothes that Silphie liked: a brown shawl coat, a white lace dress, a black flip-top hat, and so on.

She glanced at it twice, touched it to check the feel, sighed, and then put the clothes back.

"May I ask, would you mind revealing the purpose of your trip to the northern city? Are you going hunting or something else?"

"Let's go buy some goods."

"Oh, so you two are in business. Please come this way."

Next, the shop manager led us to a place with many exquisitely embroidered garments, as well as some relatively simple and practical clothes.

"I'm so sorry, I haven't asked your names and family background yet. This is a special shop for nobles of the Kingdom of Asura. We offer discounts to nobles of the Kingdom of Asura."

“My name is Rudius Boreas Grerat. Her name is Silphiet, and she is traveling with me.”

Upon hearing my name, the shop manager gasped in surprise, then bowed and said:

"Oh dear, so it's the young master of the Boreas family. I've been so disrespectful."

"No need for such formalities, no need to be so polite."

Next, the shopkeeper picked up a black cloak. The outside looked like a stiff cashmere material, while the inside was made of fluffy gray fur, which looked like something like wolf fur.

"Lord Rudius, what do you think of this? The outer velvet of this cloak is made from the fur of the summer-sleeping bears of the Duchy of Neris, and the inner lining is made from the pelt of the northern ice wolves. It is lightweight and comfortable to wear, and it is also extremely effective in keeping warm. It is definitely the best choice for merchants traveling to the north."

"Take a look at this one."

Before I could even consider the price, she picked up another garment that looked suitable to be worn under the cape. It was similar to a dress, but not as formal; it resembled a hunting outfit. It was a five-button lapel coat, predominantly gray with white cuffs. The edges of the cuffs and the buttons on the coat itself were decorated with black crystals.

"This garment is a popular style among the nobles of Lanoa recently. It was designed by Vorone, a well-known designer in the Kingdom of Lanoa. The outer and inner linings are made of tightly woven cashmere from the fine wool of sheep from the northern lands, making it extremely warm. It is very suitable for wearing in spring, autumn and winter in the climate of Sharia."

To be honest, the two clothes she picked out didn't look cheap, and I suddenly suspected that she was recommending them because she thought we were naive and had too much money.

How much are these two pieces of clothing?

"The total is five gold coins, but since you are a member of the upper-class noble family of Boreas, it will only take three gold coins."

"It's a bit expensive."

"Why don't you give it a try first?"

The store manager pointed to the fitting room. I hesitated for a moment. In all the years I had lived in Luo Ya, I had never had to worry about food or drink. I had no habit of saving money. When I had to spend money, I only felt that it was expensive, but I had no intention of saving.

Although these two pieces of clothing are expensive, I still want to try them on after hearing what the store manager said.

So I took the clothes and went into the fitting room.

……

Wow! Rudy is so handsome!

When I came out of the fitting room after changing my clothes, Hilfi was covering her face, looking like a fangirl meeting her idol.

Seeing Sylphie like this, even though the price made my heart ache a little, I still bought the two outfits for three coins.

I then went back to the fitting room and asked the store manager to pack the new clothes.

I've finished buying my clothes, and Silphie also has a few items she likes. Clearly, no merchant is honest, and the shopkeeper, as a businessman, wouldn't overlook any opportunity to make money.

"Miss, what do you think of this one?"

Then the store manager took out a very tight-fitting black leather jacket with thick white fleece lining and cuffs.

"This coat is made from the fur of the Lucky Rat, which inhabits the Demon Continent. It was designed by Lorenz Hamsaray. This coat looks thin but is actually windproof and warm. It can be adapted to the harsh climate of the northern land while also outlining the perfect figure of a woman."

"If you add these leather boots, it would be absolutely perfect."

Then, the store manager took out a pair of tall leather boots with white fur peeking out from the top of the boots, making them look like snow boots.

From the moment the shopkeeper took out the two pieces of clothing, Hilfi stared at them intently, clearly liking them very much.

Since Silphie likes it, I'll just buy it for her; after all, I'm not short of money.

"Miss shop manager, how much are these two dresses?"

"Even after the discount, it's still three gold coins."

"Isn't it a bit too expensive..."

Although Silphie liked it, she hesitated after hearing the price.

"I bought it!"

Chapter 97: Dyeing (Part 6)

……

"I bought it!"

Seeing how cute Silphi looked, wanting to buy it but reluctant to, how could I let her suffer such an injustice!

I gritted my teeth and decided to buy it anyway.

"Rudy... Forget it, it's too expensive."

Hilfi came closer and hugged my arm, still looking hesitant about whether to buy it.

"It's alright, Silphie, you go and try it first."

When the store manager heard what I said, his eyebrows practically flew to the sky. Of course, what businessperson doesn't like the landlord's foolish son?

Then, the store manager brought the clothes to Hilfi.

Hilfi reached out and stroked the black coat, her gaze lingering on it, a slight smile playing on her lips, as if imagining what she would look like wearing it.

The shop manager must have been overjoyed to see that Sylphie really liked the dress; he probably knew all too well how many rich young men had splurged on their girlfriends, whom they'd picked up from who-knows-where.

"Oh my, as expected of the young master of the Boreas family, he's so generous. Miss likes it so much..."

"I'm so sorry, I won't try on the clothes. Please put them back."

Hilfi only touched it a few times before pulling her hand back.

Then he turned to the store manager and said:

"I'm so sorry, I don't really like this style. Let's go to other stores and take a look."

“Let’s go, Rudy.”

Then, Hilfi pulled my arm and walked out of the store.

She gripped my hand tightly, as if afraid I would keep her or break free from her.

And so, she pulled me outside the store.

"Wait, young master, your clothes!"

"Oh, I'm so sorry."

In my haste, I even forgot to take the clothes that had been packed up, until the store manager chased after me with the clothes and handed them to me.

"Rudy..."

Hilfi released my arm, looked at me shyly, her small mouth half-open, as if she wanted to say something but somehow held it back.

Sure enough, she still couldn't bear to spend so much money on clothes.

"Silphie?"

"Rudy, although..."

Hilfi mumbled something in a low voice, which I couldn't quite hear, but I still wanted to go back to the store and buy Hilfi that outfit.

“I understand, Silphie is reluctant to spend money, but I can buy it for you.”

“I…but, Rudy, that money can’t be spent on me.”

"What are you talking about, Hilfi? Our tuition fees, plus..."

"Since you put it that way, Rudy, then let's buy the whole street."

"The whole street..."

Hearing Silphie's words, my face started to burn, as if I had done something wrong to upset her.

Hilfi's face was expressionless, her eyes fixed on me with a look that resembled that of my parents when I did something wrong, or of the teachers I faced when I failed an exam at school.

I turned my face to the side, trying to avoid eye contact with her.

“Silphie…I…”

"Rudy, look at me."

Hilfi reached out and grabbed my arm, pulling me to face her.

She noticed I was avoiding her. What, was she going to lecture me? Put on an air of superiority and then scold me like she was reprimanding her own child or student?

No, no, Sylphie would never do that.

She was trying to save me money. I was immediately swayed by the shop manager when we entered the store. Even though the clothes she recommended were ten times more expensive than the ones I'd seen with Shilufi, her persuasive sales pitch convinced me they were worth the price. So I bought them without hesitation.

“Although I’m happy that Rudy is going to buy me clothes, Rudy, let me ask you, are you using your own money right now? That money was given to you by your family, not for you to squander on me.”

"..."

I couldn't answer. Just a moment ago, I was spending money like a high-spirited young master, not even feeling the pinch when buying clothes that cost several Asura coins.

“If Rudy buys something for me with his own money, I will cherish it like a treasure, no matter what it is.”

“Sylphie…”

She reminded me that the money in my hand wasn't mine; it was given to me by Philip.

Five years ago, when Alice offered to buy me books, I refused, saying that it wasn't my own money and I couldn't accept it.
