Chereads / The Mage Poe / Chapter 52 - Fluffy Cat Pajamas

Chapter 52 - Fluffy Cat Pajamas

Hearing Lucia in the distance, Poe hurried over and was soon met with a worried looking Lucia.

"W-where is Ivy?"

Even though it was great to have found Lucia once again, Poe did not dare to relax his guard, Ivy was after all still dangerous. Looking around, Poe did not even see the shadow of either Ivy or Cecilia, so he decided to stay cautious for now.

"They went after you almost immediately and from the looks of it they should have finished looking through this entire floor and be back soon. By the way, what is that dress? It looks quite good."

While looking around, Lucia's gaze soon shifted from the surroundings and onto the dress held in Poe's hands.

"Ah, this? I found a good battle dress that can talk. Now I don't need any of the things Ivy or Cecilia found!"

Poe said with a proud look on his face. Poe was indeed quite proud of the dress he found and remembered to put weigh on not needing anything Ivy or Cecilia found.

"That sound gre- wait… Did you just say it can ta-"

Before Lucia got the chance to say anything, she was splendidly interrupted by the sound of someone coming over.

"Poe~"

Looking towards the source of the interruption, Poe and Lucia saw Ivy coming over from the distance with Cecilia following her closely.

Poe saw the enemy approaching and hurriedly hid behind Lucia in hope that she would be able to defend him.

"Look, Look, Poe~ me and Cecilia both got you some cute clothes~"

"Y-yes and both the cat pajamas and dress Lucia choose does not need above 5 strength."

Saying so, both Cecilia and Ivy put on a splendid smile. Poe however saw this as a chance and presented the dress he found.

"N-no need, I already found a dress… A-and I have no need for more than one!"

Poe tried really hard to look like he did not care about it at all, as he showed the dress to Ivy and Cecilia.

Ivy looked a little sad while Cecilia did not really care and after thinking for a bit, Cecilia said something to Ivy, who in return turned happy once again.

"That is great, Poe. Now we found both a dress and a pajamas for you~"

Ivy said while smirking slightly with a triumphant look on her face.

"B-but I alr-"

"You have a dress~ not a pajamas~ Don't tell me you are going to sleep in the dress?"

Hearing Ivy, Poe realized that he would most likely not be able to do anything about it and he would only sleep in it, so it should be fine… Right? Poe slowly started to doubt whether it would be a good idea to just accept Ivy, but as he would only sleep in it, Poe decided to just accept it.

Cecilia was also the one who chose it, so Poe was convinced that there was nothing wrong with it. Cecilia was after all not Ivy…

"By the way Cecilia, can I see the description for the pajamas?"

"Sure~"

Cecilia said, as she handed Poe a piece of paper.

[Fluffy Cat Pajamas]

[Requires: 15 AGI]

[Increases comfort while sitting down or laying down, increases agility by 5, increases recovery rate while sleeping]

[Costs: 150 gold]

Seeing the price of the overpowered pajamas, Poe was really shocked. 150 gold just for a pajamas… Did Cecilia really want to buy something so expensive for him…?

"Don't worry about it~ 150 gold is not that much and you would look really cute in it… I think it is 100 % worth it~ I will also soon be leaving the training ground, so spending a little here and there is fine~"

Poe was quite shocked by the way Cecilia spoke about gold, that was 150 gold! How is that seen as spending a little here and there…?

Seemingly not caring about Poe's shocked face, Cecilia started dragging Poe towards the stairs back to the 1'st floor to pay for the clothes.

As Poe and Cecilia disappeared from the third floor, Lucia and Ivy was left standing there shocked at what just happened. Somehow Poe was just taken away so smoothly by Cecilia, even Ivy started feeling a little dissatisfied when she saw how close Cecilia and Poe seemed. Well at least she convinced herself that they were close or why else would Poe accept the pajamas Cecilia chose and not the dress she chose?

Ivy thought, ignoring the fact that Poe already found a dress for himself.

Lucia, who saw her sister's dissatisfaction let out a sigh, as she made her way to the 1'st floor.

On Poe's side they had already arrived in front of the cashier and was about to pay.

"That will be a total of 150 gold and 1 silver."

"Here."

Somehow, Cecilia was also paying for his dress, Poe really did not know how he was going to pay Cecilia back for the pajamas that cost 150 gold, but thinking that he did not really ask for it and that Cecilia was the one who gave it to him, Poe decided to just ignore it and waited for Lucia and Ivy to make their way to the 1'st floor.

When Lucia and Ivy had made their way to Cecilia and Poe, Ivy was for some reason in a bad mood, but Poe decided to ignore it, as nothing good would ever come out of meddling with Ivy.

Having finished getting clothes for Poe, the group decided to go out and eat dinner, before going back to sleep after.

Poe soon changed into the dress he found and Cecilia was so kind to buy for him, before the four of them made their way towards the flying kitten to get something to eat.

For some reason, Poe's dress never said a word after Poe met up with Lucia and Poe had already forgotten his dress could speak, as his mind was mostly worried about Ivy and excited about the food he was going to eat soon.
