The day after the ball that flew the aristocratic sword.
It was supposed to be ridiculous.
Yes, in a word, "What's this!"
There was a long line at the magazine store "Ohana Bookstore". There are as many people as there are lines for the first sale in department stores, lines for attractions in rat amusement parks, lines for limited sale of popular sweets, and so on.
The line starts from "Ohana Bookstore", the end point of the first street of Grafner Street, crosses the "Meeting Bridge" that continues to the second street, and the end cannot be seen.
Don't be scared more than you imagined ....
Are all the people who came to buy the fashion magazine "Eimi"?
The fact that they were lined up like this before the store opened means that the first two girls got together as soon as possible. I'm grateful and cry. I want to give you a hot hug. I'm fat.
When I and Claris arrived at "Ohana Bookstore", the manager of the bookstore and Black Brian, who was planning to help with the sale, ran with a different blood phase.
"Lady Ellie! Look at this line! Some 6,000 Ron books are sure to be sold out!"
"What should I do? 500 copies is definitely not enough ..."
The fat, mild-mannered store manager, who seems to like books, is snorting.
Black Brian, on the other hand, seemed to be filled with apologies for the guests in line, perhaps because of his innate responsibility.
"Manager, are you ready for change? Black Brian, please call the printing team. I'm bringing the base paper of the reservation slip, thinking that this might happen."
"Of course!"
"Okay!"
The store manager returns to the store to make a final confirmation of the store opening preparations.
Give Black Brian the base paper of the magazine reservation slip and tell him to print a thousand copies with a "copy copy". She simply "copies" the draft on a piece of paper the size of a bill, stamps the stamp at Ohana Bookstore, and handwrites the numbers from 1 to 1000. Since it pushes the seal, it is unlikely to be counterfeited. Black and white printing on small paper. It doesn't take much magical power and time.
When I told the store manager about the reservation, a young male clerk came out and shouted at the long line.
"The first edition is limited to 500 copies! We are giving priority to customers who can not buy today! Please wait as it is only for those who are okay!"
The clerk screamed, crossed the "Meeting Bridge" and walked to the invisible tail.
Even after hearing the explanation, few customers left the line.
It was a good sideshow, as the quarrel that had not been interrupted started around the middle of the line. It's fine to have a lot of blood, but I think it's a good idea to hit each other until you get a bumpy nosebleed as an adult and take care of the police.
Thirty minutes before the store opened, Misa and Joe came and were surprised to see the procession. Immediately after that, copywriter Boyne and Ariana's younger brother, the fox reporter Frank, came and told him to help the seller and let him go to the store manager.
I asked the erotic photographer who came after me to take a picture of that area, or rather, I ignored it because I released the shutter with an incomprehensible shout "Fantastic!" And went to Mass and Joe. moved.
"Lady ... this is ..."
Misa doesn't seem to realize the sight in front of her. She has her mouth crisp like a carp.
Joe was calling "great" repeatedly.
Then a girl rushed from the line and she called out to Mass. She doesn't seem to know Mass.
"Ah! Where did you buy the clothes? Who designed them? Who made that magazine? Where can I buy clothes? There are clothes of the size that suits me Is it? "
The girls who ask questions in quick succession are probably 15 or 6 years old. She has shining eyes to see the mass in gaucho pants.
Misa regained her mind and replied with a big smile to her pretty girl.
"You can buy this at my shop" Mirrors ". It was designed by this lady Ellie and Joe who is the exclusive designer of Millers. The magazine was also made by Lady Ellie here. This lady is amazing. There are sizes, but there are nice clothes that suit you better than these gaucho pants, so please come to the store. "
"Wow, is that true ?! Where is the store?"
"It's written in the magazine I'm about to buy."
"Okay! Ah ... I was so surprised when I saw the poster in Ichibancho! There was such a beautiful person, I laughed so cutely, and I was very beautiful with nice clothes ... .... I was angry with my dad when I was watching for hours while I was using it. I came with a friend when I saw that a book called a clothing magazine was going to be released! "
"Thank you. I'm Ellie Golden, designer and editor-in-chief of the magazine."
She thanked the energetic girl, pinched her hem and greeted her.
"Just if you ask a stranger, you have to behave like a lady. A woman's appearance is important, but the most important thing is the contents. Look, bow like this, oh no! The shirt is sticking out. Isn't it! Have you seen the mirror? "
"Ah ... I hurried out of my house ..."
"No matter how urgent you are, you have to be groomed properly."
I started preaching for some reason.
I want such a straightforward and energetic child to have a strong heart and become a good woman. Yes Yes.
After a while, when the girl returned to the line, it was time to sell. The time is 9 am. People passing by, people heading to work, rushing carriers, loud salespeople, adventurer-like groups, guards coming to see the situation, and the melting pot of various races, the capital of the Kingdom of Greifner, Greifner was still busy today. .. In addition to the usual hustle and bustle, the queue for magazines is adding to the hustle and bustle.
"Then everyone! We have started selling the first fashion magazine" Eimi "in the Kingdom of Grafner! Please prepare your money and don't push it !!"
When the manager of the Ohana bookstore called out to open the store, the line shouted and applauded, "Wow, oh, oh!". As expected, it is a reaction like the Grafner people with high tension.
"You are the first purchaser to commemorate! Congratulations!"
When the girl at the top of the line paid for the magazine, she happily held it in her chest and jumped away from the line. Their smiles are dazzling. It's a priceless smile, not a million dollars.
It was really good to make this magazine. Despite the grand motive of making miniskirts and hot pants popular, it's a nice sight to make women smile. I'm still a genius.

After seeing Claris and the magazine sold out, I went to Millers.
This was also crowded with people.
The macho door boy who always stands like a gatekeeper is arranging in line, and Usax responds to customers dexterously while raising his ears as if to assist it. 90% of the customers in line are women, and the age group is from teens to twenties. Everyone desperately looks into the magazine and argues that it's not like that.
To be honest, the content of the magazine is thin. The book is also thin.
The number of pages could not be increased due to the relationship between the budget and "copy copy". There are 9 pages in color including the cover, 9 pages in black and white, and 18 pages in total. Seven types of carefully selected coordination are posted.
I received the magazine that Claris had and opened the page I checked many times.
"Eimi"
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Fashionable power rather than defensive power! 』\
One or two pages.
Amy oversized in the spread.
Smile with a refreshing striped dress and cardigan roll.
cute.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Can you protect me?"
~ No more defense. I'll protect that person I like ~
The same as the cover, a knee-length skirt designed with small water spirits studded on a blue background, and a slender white button shirt.
Amy has a bursting smile on her face. cute.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"This year is popular! That person who likes it is also the best! 』\
A red flared skirt similar to what Elizabeth wears at the ball. Summer knit is a short sleeve that is rare in Grafner.
Amy is looking up. It's so cute.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"A big woman is gaucho pants"
Amy wearing khaki gaucho pants and studying with a serious look at the library of the magic school. A photo that breaks Grafner's common sense that women wear trousers as taboo. Anyway, Amy looks like an adult with a crisp face. cute.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Off is relaxing at your favorite cafe"
A thick red border long skirt on a white background. A light brown jacket with a white turtleneck inner. The earrings are bonbons with a processed tail of a mini-mini rabbit of subjugation rank F.
The cafe at the shooting location is the most popular among young people, and "Italeria" opposite "Ohana Bookstore"
If you were a man, you wanted to meet Amy at the cafe. It 's good.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――
I flipped through the pages.
The other two coordinations are an adventurer-like one and a simple one that incorporates the trends of Grafner.
The black and white page has a pretty interesting workmanship.
Mass interview and photos. The article on how we defeated the Bone Lizard contains a photo of a flock of Little Lizard taken by an erotic photographer with the thought of dying.
Other pages have information on clothes, how to dress, special features on meeting places, and women's magazine-like content on how to get rid of those who are interested.
Satisfied, closed the magazine and handed it to Clarisse.
She tried to enter the store so as not to hit the customers in line.
She immediately gets a voice from the women in line saying, "Don't interrupt!" When I was wondering what was going on, a smiling mass came from the store and she deliberately shouted, "Isn't it the designer Ellie Golden Lady!" And let me through. Everyone looks at that fat girl with mysterious eyes.
The inside of the store was less crowded than I expected.
It seems that admission is restricted.
"Did you see the young lady? That big procession, a great success! I'm glad I'm going to get rid of it!"
Mass raises a voice of joy.
I want you to stop shaking my shoulders by force. The flesh of the belly and upper arms sways and seems to get drunk.
Joe has a serious look and is choosing clothes for young girls. I don't seem to notice this. Anyway, it's very popular. Girls flock like cats jumping on food. Joe is kind of handsome.
"It seems that we will run out of stock today!"
"Please sell more and more! Rewrite the fashion history of Grafner!"
"Yes, that's right, young lady!"
And 10% of the profit goes into this pocket as a design fee. I was told by Mass that there were not a few, but this should be enough. I'm in trouble if I get too much and Millers can't make new clothes.

Thus, the first day of magazine sales ended with great success.
He set up his own company called "Kobashigawa Shokai" and decided to throw the management etc. to the members of the magazine editor. If he didn't start his own company as it was, he would be troubled later.
It seems that many merchants who are keen on business opportunities came to Ohana Bookstore and Millers to negotiate. The strategy is to surround the promotion, distribution, sales, etc. with "Kobashigawa Shokai" so as not to be deprived of profits.
Although he is good at sales and planning sales, he cannot manage or manage at all. I'm really bad at clerical work. The chairman was me, and the vice-chairman was left to Usax and Claris, and the other members were given appropriate positions.
I have to create the second issue of the magazine, I want to tie up with other stores, and I want to make special features on cosmetics, makeup, and hairstyles anyway. For the time being, it's like "Kobashigawa Shokai," which supports Millers, which focuses on magazine planning.
