"Damn, Kyoto is the best, " Issei and two perverted friends said as they wiped the blood that was coming from their noses. For perverts like them, Kyoto is simply a paradise. Especially when everyone they see is wearing kimonos that hardly hide their gorgeous assets.
"You three perverts should just die. " Katase, wearing a pink-colored kimono, said with a disgusted expression.
Murayama also nodded her head in agreement. And like Katase, she too was wearing a kimono. But hers was yellow. In fact, all the girls who came on this school trip were wearing colorful kimonos. Even Rosswiese was not spared.
The reason for this sudden change of outfit is that Roxanne, after returning from her visit to Takamagahara, decided that when they travel in Kyoto, they should follow the local customs.
So she generously decided to sponsor everyone so they get to choose their own kimonos. Of course, all of these kimonos were custom-made. In fact, if one looked closely, they would realize the material used for these kimonos is not ordinary wool. These clothes are made out of Jorōgumo's silk, which is very popular in the supernatural community.
Jorōgumo is a shape-shifting spider creature that appears in Japanese folklore. It is said that she appears as a beautiful woman to lure in unsuspecting young men. Unfortunately, these types of yokai are not that powerful and are often hunted by other strong yokai.
But in the last few years, the treatment of the Jorōgumo has been changed drastically. This is because a certain princess decided to take the Jorōgumo clan under her command. And from that day, the Jorōgumo were no longer hunted down casually, and a new brand of luxury clothes also entered the market.
These clothes were made out of Jorōgumo's silk thread. At first, many didn't pay much attention to these clothes and only casually glanced over them. But in just a few months, the demand for these clothes shot through the roof.
The reason for this is that these clothes are unlike any other clothes that could give the wearer some protection, and supreme comfort is also able to channel magic to repair itself. These properties made it more dazzling for the supernatural community, who have to fight almost every day.
Not only would buying it reduce the costs of constantly needing to buy new clothes, but it would also allow them to be protected without needing to wear heavy armor. In this modern world, who would want to wear that bulky armor if they couldn't help it?
It could be said that with Roxanne's new brand, the whole supernatural community went through a big, massive trend.
And of course, these students didn't know how much of a gift Roxanne had given them. This also included Rosswiese, who was so poor she had never even known such a thing.
As for the boys, well, they honestly didn't need anything else, as the view alone was enough for them. Even though most of them don't express their desires like the perverted trio, Roxanne completely understood that they were also very much satisfied with the service she provided.
"Alright, everyone, remember to gather here around 10 o'clock. Don't be late, as we have many other attractions to visit. And also, if anyone wants to buy any souvenirs, there is a 100 yen store three blocks away from here. You could go there and pay a visit if you want. "Well then, kids, see you later, " Rossweisse said as she skipped happily and walked towards the direction where the 100 yen store was located.
"Hey, is it me or doesn't teacher Rossweisse seem to be too excited about going to a 100 yen store? " one student asked as he nudged his friend with his elbow.
"Yeah, no kidding, " his friend also nodded in disbelief. Never in his life did he think that he would one day see someone who loved going to a 100 yen store this much.
Although those who come to Kouh Academy cannot be called rich, they aren't so poor that they need to go through that much difficulty. So, everyone couldn't understand why someone would be this excited about finding a 100 yen store. Especially when you can buy all kinds of souvenirs in the shops next to them.
Hell, there is even a shop that is called ' The perfect souvenir finder ', and one glance and you can definitely tell that this store has some good stuff.
Rosswiesse's actions puzzled not only the students but also Roxanne. She even took a phone call just to be sure she paid Rosswiesse's salary correctly. And after hearing a positive answer from the other side, her confusion deepened.
In the original timeline, the reason why Rosswiesse had to go to 100 yen stores is that the salary she gets from working as a teacher isn't enough to cover all her expenses. But now that Rosswiesse works for her, there is no way such a future could happen.
Although Roxanne doesn't consider herself a good person, she still honestly pays wages to her employees without any hidden taxes. So Rosswiesse's monthly income should be enough for a normal family to live happily without any concerns.
But looking at Rosswiese's expression, Roxanne can hardly see any qualities that a rich person should display. Is Rosswiesse one of those people who love to save money, living a frugal life even when they earn much more than the average person?
"Hey, Roxanne, where should we go first? " Xenovia, holding a pamphlet, asked as she looked at Roxanne. She was one of the few people who wasn't bothered by Rosswiesse's attraction to 100 yen stores.
"Hmm, why don't we start by going to see the Fushimi Inari Taisha? " snapping out of her wild thoughts, Roxanne answered after thinking for a bit.
" Okay, girls, then let's go. " Aika, hearing their conversation, instantly came across and dragged the two of them away. She looked like an energetic girl excited to see the wonders of Kyoto—well, that is, if you ignore the barely lewd smile on her face.
Although Aika doesn't show it much, you should never forget that she, too, is a pervert that the perverted trio had to look up to. And this pervert has been very restless after seeing the sight of all these women in beautiful kimonos.
Her eyes were especially on Roxanne, who, unlike the rest, wore a different type of kimono: a vibrant crimson garment detailed with black accents and a striking cherry blossom tattoo-like pattern across the shoulder. It featured wide sleeves and was cinched by a broad, light pink obi, creating an overall look that was both intensely fierce and elegantly traditional.
Honestly speaking, Roxanne looked like someone from the Yakuza. But due to Roxanne's face and the subtle aura she releases, she doesn't have that intimidation effect, but she looks more like a cute girl trying to look tough.
