Jelas was already fantasizing about pinning them beneath him! He wasn't worried about failing at all, after all, he was a Professional! Not an ordinary person!
Professionals possess immense power. It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to awaken as a Professional; only one person in a thousand manages to awaken.
As Jelas, a Professional Warrior, his Professional Level had reached Level 30. He could take on a hundred ordinary adult men, so dealing with a few little Lolis would be an effortless task.
Illustrious was currently happily walking and chatting with Aircraft Carrier and the others, completely unaware of the impending danger. After all, Illustrious believed that in such a safe place like town, no one would dare lay a hand on them! Thus, she followed Nagato to the clothing store with great peace of mind.
After walking for a long time, Illustrious and the others finally arrived at the clothing store. It was filled with beautiful garments, making them stare wide-eyed.
The Shopkeeper inside was a beautiful blonde woman who looked around twenty-three years old. The clothes sold in her shop had always been popular with the villagers, not only because the designs were beautiful but also because the prices were much more affordable than other clothing stores!
"Four lovely customers, how may I help you?" the Shopkeeper asked enthusiastically.
"Excuse me, Older Sister, could you show us around? We want to buy clothes," Illustrious said sweetly.
"Oh, I hate being called Older Sister! I'm already forty-two, and I didn't expect anyone to still call me that. No problem, leave it to Older Sister! Seeing how delicate and cute you all are, if you wear the clothes I sell, you'll definitely become as beautiful as little princesses," the Shopkeeper Older Sister said with a smile.
"Eh! Older Sister is already forty-two? I can't tell at all!" Belfast whispered. "Um, if possible, could you show me some Maid Outfits? I want to buy a Maid Outfit."
"A Maid Outfit? You would look absolutely adorable in a Maid Outfit." Although Belfast was wearing a burlap dress and had some dust on her face, the Shopkeeper could still make out Belfast's delicate and cute features.
After the Shopkeeper's introduction, Illustrious and the others all found clothes they liked. Illustrious immediately took off her old clothes, packed them up, and put on the new ones.
The outfit Illustrious bought was a white off-the-shoulder dress, with a cute little bunny single-shoulder cross-body bag slung over her shoulder. Three copper wind chimes hung on the bag, making a clear ringing sound with every step.
She wore a lace white bonnet on her head, white pantyhose wrapped her slender legs, and her delicate feet were clad in small black leather shoes. Overall, she looked quite cute and charming.
The saying, "People rely on clothes, Buddha relies on gold," was absolutely correct. After Illustrious changed into her new outfit, she looked utterly adorable.
"Older Sister, you look so cute after changing into this outfit!" Aircraft Carrier said excitedly.
"Really? Just so-so! Hehehe!" Illustrious blushed slightly after being complimented on her cuteness. No girl dislikes being called cute, even Illustrious, who usually looked reserved, was no exception.
"Aircraft Carrier, you too! You don't look any worse than me!" Illustrious said, looking at Aircraft Carrier's clothes.
Aircraft Carrier was currently wearing a dark-style Lolita dress, black lace gloves on her hands, a dark Lolita lace choker around her neck, and a dark Lolita headdress. She looked mysterious and beautiful, like a Dark Maiden.
Aircraft Carrier's outfit was personally chosen for her by Illustrious. Aircraft Carrier originally didn't particularly like such flashy clothes, but seeing Illustrious say that she would look absolutely cute and beautiful in this set.
As soon as Aircraft Carrier heard her Older Sister say that the outfit was cute and beautiful, she agreed to wear it without hesitation.
"Really? Older Sister, do you like how I look? Then I'll take this outfit!" Aircraft Carrier spun around, smiling sweetly.
"Belfast, did you really choose a Maid Outfit again? But Aircraft Carrier and I are no longer the Baron's daughters," Illustrious said, seeing Belfast choose a black and white Maid Outfit.
"Even if the Young Mistress is no longer the Baron's daughter, I cannot forget the maid's mission. My ultimate goal is to cultivate the Young Mistress into an elegant and dignified lady. Besides, when taking care of the Young Mistress, I feel that wearing a Maid Outfit better represents my determination," Belfast said with conviction regarding the maid's mission.
Seeing Belfast's enthusiastic appearance, a fine sweat broke out on Illustrious's forehead. "Uh! You really are something, aren't you? As long as you like it."
After Aircraft Carrier, Belfast, and Illustrious had all chosen clothes they liked, Illustrious noticed that Nagato hadn't chosen any, and asked curiously, "Nagato, why haven't you chosen clothes? Don't you like anything here?"
"Oh, I don't need any. Today is for you all to buy clothes! How can I let you spend money on me?" Nagato said awkwardly to Illustrious.
"That won't do. If we only buy for ourselves and not for you, we'll feel guilty. If you're embarrassed, just consider it payment for bringing us to this shop! Or are you saying you don't consider us friends, which is why you won't accept me buying you clothes?" Illustrious said, crossing her arms and pretending to be angry.
"N-no, absolutely not! Older Sister Illustrious, please don't be angry. If that's the case, then I'll listen to you and accept the clothes you buy for me." Seeing Illustrious look angry, Nagato panicked. Illustrious was her first friend! She didn't want to lose her!
Seeing Nagato's panicked face, Illustrious immediately smiled and said, "That's better! Come, let me show you this outfit. How about this one? It will definitely suit you."
Illustrious led Nagato to a corner of the shop, where there was a red and white Kimono that looked quite noble and beautiful.
Nagato instantly fell in love with the Kimono; she couldn't take her eyes off it! In her heart, she imagined how dignified and elegant she would look if she wore it.
"Customer, you really have a good eye! This is a high-end kimono I imported from the Sakura Kingdom. Seeing as you've bought so many clothes from me, I'll sell this one to you cheap!" the store manager hurried over and introduced enthusiastically.
"Then, how much is it?" Illustrious asked.
"Not expensive! Only three gold coins," the store manager replied immediately.
The corner of Illustrious's mouth couldn't help but twitch. Good grief! That's not expensive? You should know that her own clothes plus Aircraft Carrier's and Belfast's clothes only cost two gold coins in total.
This kimono with hardly any fabric actually costs three gold coins, and he says he's giving it to her cheap? You call this cheap? Profiteer! Why don't you just go and rob someone!
