After a few hours of sleep. They got out of the room.
"Where are we going?"
Asser asked.
"Let's buy some nice clothes."
"Oh. Good thing."
On their way out. They come across a maid.
"Hey. Where do you think we could buy clothes?"
"Ah, sir… Just a few houses away to the left, there is a store. Though it might be a bit expensive as this section of the city is where most rich men live."
"Price doesn't matter. As long as it is nice."
"Uh… Yes. Sorry, I have to go."
"Alright."
They then go. The inn is still quite busy with many people at the reception chatting to each other. There are beautiful women and many other rich men.
On their way to the main door. A man came running to them.
"Sir!"
"Who are you?"
Rai asked.
"I, I am the manager of the inn. Sir. I wanted to ask. Who exactly are you?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Because of yesterday…"
"I know. The pouch. Go ahead and take it."
"But sir!"
"Oh, I see. You wanted another one huh?"
"No no! It's not like that! It's way too much!"
"You're worried that those are our only money? Don't worry. We have lots of money."
"Uh…"
"We had to go. We're coming back later."
"Y, yes…"
They opened the main door and heads outside. It is now nighttime and the streets are still busy. It seems that the city is much livelier at night.
"Alright. To the left she said."
They strode forward to find the said store.
After coming a few houses away. They found it.
"So she's telling the truth that it might be a bit expensive."
Rei said.
"Yeah. Just look at the design of the store. Only rich bastards could truly wish to buy in here."
Niel replied.
"True."
They head inside to look for clothes to change onto. They are more than seven hours in the game. They haven't even got a message about what's going on with their real body and some of them are becoming quite anxious about their current predicament.
"Hey, hey! Come on people! This is not a place for people like you. So I kindly ask you to leave please."
A man said as he approached them.
"Do you mean us?"
Rei replied.
"Yes."
"Oh. I see. We look like commoners, huh? How much for the shop?"
Rai said.
"Eh? W–"
"How much?"
"Hey! I don't want a commotion in my store. I am asking you to leave as the reputation of my store will be tainted if people like you are seen buying here! As if you even could afford a handkerchief made in this store."
"Alright. Let's see your clothing first before we buy the shop."
Rai looked at a nearby dress and inspects it.
[Quality: 40%]
[Durability:60%]
"Hmm... Quite nice. Unlike our clothes that are just a fraction of those numbers."
"What do you mean? Y, you know. Just get out please."
"Alright. I'll buy the store then. I'll pay for all the workers' salary for one whole year in one payment and they will still be going to work here. Don't worry. You'll be managing them so it won't hurt as you also had a salary. Guess that will clear your mind of us being commoners. How much?"
"Y, you're crazy."
"Come on. Name a price. No matter how much that is."
"You'll regret this."
The man mumbled
"One thousand gold coins! Excluding all workers' salaries. There are twenty-seven workers. If you'll pay for them all for one whole year. It'll be one thousand four hundred gold coins!"
"Deal."
"Huh!? Are you out of your mind!? Just how can you–"
"Here. Count it. Now that we bought the store, we'll be picking our clothing."
They proceed to do so and eventually. They were now had been able to find nice clothes and wear them.
"Oh! This fabric feels nice. It gives off the aura of a noble. Haha!"
Rei said.
"Yeah. It is."
The man comes back after then.
"T, the amount is correct. Are you sure about this sir?"
"Yeah. I kind of doesn't like being belittled so I bought the store. That's not a big money though."
"But still! Being able to pay this much! Are you a noble from another city! I have nobles from other cities come here just to buy my products! How come I do not recognize you!?"
"Well. We just settled earlier this day. Not a big deal. We're going."
"Eh!? But sir! The papers of the store."
"Just keep it. Just feel free to be still the owner of the store. We just wanted clothes. You don't need to think about the reputation of your shop. If others have money to buy. Don't turn them away."
Rai said waving his hand as they go away.
"You're a total badass big bro! Haha! His reaction. It's hilarious. So. Where next to?"
"Let's drink!"
Asser proclaimed.
"Really? Then. Alright! Big bro, let's go?"
"Yeah. If you said so."
After asking around. They eventually found a nice tavern.
"Alrighty! Let's drink here."
Rei said.
They came inside and many people, most of them are nobles saw them and are drinking, some of the women are chatting. Some are just discussing business.
They took seats and after a while. A waiter asked them.
"What service could I offer sirs?"
"Can you just give us three bottles of wines?"
Rei answered.
"Yes, may I ask what wine is it, sir?"
"Uh…"
"Just a red wine then."
"Yes, right away."
After a while. The waiter comes back with their desired drink.
"Here, sirs."
"Thank you."
"If you'll excuse me."
The waiter then left to attend to the other guests.
They then started drinking.
"Everyone. Don't forget to turn off your poison resistance or you won't get drunk. Just turn it back on when you don't want to be drunk anymore."
Rai advised them.
"Alright! Let's see who'll be the first to get drunk!"
Rei then said happily.
