Chapter 60: Only Looking at Me
"Indeed, if that's the case, how about these?"
Saying so, the owner of the clothing store "Silk Wings," Dominique-san, laid out a variety of clothes and dresses made from fire rat and chain snake leather, known for their excellent fire resistance and high cut resistance.
Dominique-san, the store owner, is a talented designer who creates works combining practicality and design, an accomplished dwarf woman with an aura of capability. The combination of her yellow hair and slightly tanned skin exudes a subtle charm.
Dwarf women are often skilled in clothing and fashion-related professions, with little difference from humans except for their slightly shorter stature. Except for their chest, which is comparable to that of cows.
The two of them eagerly choose clothes and enter the fitting room. Women do love shopping, after all.
Especially someone like Sara, who has been making do with makeshift clothes, seems delighted.
"Oh my, it's quite an honor for a beautiful girl like that to look so intently. Both of you seem just like princesses from somewhere."
Yes, we are genuine princesses.
"By the way, you two must be the store owner's fiancées, right? You're quite the catch."
"That's correct, but how did you know we're fiancées?"
"Only a fiancé or husband is referred to as 'sama' by an elven woman. It didn't feel like a married couple, so I thought you must be fiancés, Hero-sama. By the way... Is there still a seat available?"
Oh no, she's onto us with those dark eyes and black hair.
As Dominique-san continues to gaze at me intensely, she takes my hand and slips it into her cleavage. What are you doing, Dominique-san!? The soft sensation and the faint warmth of her slightly sweaty skin make my heart race.
Well, that's sweet, Dominique-san, but unfortunately, I prefer smaller chests. This won't work... Wait, what's going on? My arm isn't moving despite my intention (outwardly). I can move my fingers freely though. Could it be due to the substantial pressure from both sides? But I have physical nullification. So, could it be a form of mental control? Move, my right arm!
"Dominique-saaan! Could you take a look, please?"
"Oh, too bad. I'll excuse myself for a moment, Hero-sama."
Alright, my arm is moving! My right arm is moving. Mental control indeed. Dwarves are impressive.
Currently, the two of them are changing in the fitting room. They seem to want me to see the outfits they like.
But, this is bad... My hearing clearly informs me of their changing situation. N-no, it's not because I'm a pervert! At this rate, they'll finish changing simultaneously. When that happens, which one should I look at? Even though we share senses, or rather, because we share senses, not choosing one might make the other sad.
When will I ever use the power granted by Lady Ilize? The blessing of the goddess makes skills more likely to manifest.
I wish. For the necessary power. The stronger the wish, the stronger the image, the more likely the skill will manifest.
"I have memorized parallel actions."
Parallel Actions: The ability to perform multiple actions simultaneously. (God-tier skill)
Yes, I did it! Now I can look at both of them at the same time. Thank you, Lady Ilize.
"Your Excellency, we're finished changing. C-could you please take a look?"
"I'm done too, look, Your Excellency!"
As expected, Silphy and Sara finished changing at the same time.
(Your Excellency, between Silphy and me, whom will you look at first? Even though we share senses, I know it doesn't matter, but still...)
(You'll probably look at Silphy first... After all, you met her first, and you always call her name before mine. I understand, and it doesn't really matter. But...)
"Please, just look at me..."
Because they share senses, they both know it. It's an impossible thing, but Kakel did indeed look at both of them simultaneously.
Happiness always multiplies. The joyous feelings are doubled.
Silphy and Sara leap into my arms with happy smiles. Why are you both crying?
"...You both look absolutely stunning. Even a fairy tale princess would run away barefoot."
"We love you, Your Excellency, we love you so much!"
Yeah, yeah, you're both cute. But, don't forget these are trial outfits, okay?
"...I'm sorry. Dominique-san, I'll take both of these."
Since they got all messy with tears, not buying them isn't an option. I'm glad they look good.
"Hehehe, what a situation. I'd appreciate it if you didn't flaunt it too much."
Dominique-san lets out an exasperated sigh.
In the end, I purchased additional clothes, dresses, and even combat underwear through custom orders, totaling 20 gold coins.
It's worth it for the two of them.
"Thank you so much for your generous purchase! We'll be waiting for your next visit."
Dominique-san has a very pleasant smile.
And as she leaves, she whispers in my ear,
"Next time, come alone. I'll always be waiting."
Wait, is this world an erotic game or something? Tell me, Lady Ilize!
"...There's no way that's the case!! Come on, Kakeru-kun."
Ilize interjects with a sigh.
"Uh, Lady Ilize, one of the god-tier skills in the storage is missing..."
"Oh, that was me using it. Don't worry about it."
(Really, you're such a handful... Just this once, Kakeru-kun.)
