Looking at Gates with an expression of madness, the store owner almost lost her cool as she introduced herself...wanting to know who this was,
"I'm Victoria Del-hi, Manager of this store. Who are you?" She said as he looked him up and down, his hair was black, so were his eyes, it wasn't common but it wasn't that unusual.
"Del-hi huh... My name is Amon, Gates Amon." Gates said as he looked at Victoria.
Hearing his name, she quickly changed her attitude, his last name, Gates from the Gates family was the last family anyone in the city wanted to cross...
A mage family as well as a noble family, with Theodore holding the rank of marquees... None of the other Nobles in the city had even reached the rank of a count as most were spineless and used the achievements of others to either gain some merits or buy their way into nobility.
"I see, I'm sorry for disturbing you... You said you wanted some clothes? We can give a discount on any clothes made or bought by 10%" Victoria said as she gave a small bow to Amon. He paid it no heed as he grabbed Rosalias hand and pulled her forward in front of him, no force necessary as she just followed his will.
"Good, now get to it, make her whatever she wants..oh and make more fits like this she has on" He said pointing to her leather pants as Victoria nodded, looking at Rosalia with a certain look before gesturing for her to follow her back through where she had just come from.
Now left with Yusuf, Gates had asked him to get his things and anything else he wanted as he looked around, settling his mind after getting the manager.
Walking about, nothing really interested him, instead he started to think about his next moves from tomorrow... He planned to go back to the forest soon, this time prepared as he had the two overly capable knights with him...
He needed alot of things and first was to train, he had never held a blade before, talk less of anything past a fist fight... Since he had both Yusuf who was both skilled in magic and sword as well as Rosalia, he doubted that he would not be able to learn at least the basics before the competition in a month.
He also needed to go back to school and register, The magic Academy was strict about alot of things and since the former Amon was not exactly a student that appeared in school because of the circumstances, it could be more than said that he was basically a drop out without the board announcing it.
"Shit, alot to do with so little time." He voiced to nothing as he stumbles across a section that held a couple of shoes, a black pair of boots that had no design but it's shade of black made the light around it seem to not even reach it.
Picking them up, he walks over to the cashier dropping them on the counter as she looks at him before looking back at the shoe
"Uh, sir, it won't be your size.." She said to Gates as he looked at her like she was dumb,
"Then make it my size, put an enchantment or something." He replied, wondering if most the attendants here are dumb or doing this on purpose.
"Ah, my apologies, however an enchanter is going to be hard to procure.. " She said apologetically,
"Hey, Yusuf, come over here a bit." Gates said, calling out to yusuf who just walked around admiring clothes after clothes ...
"Now, do you have the spell for the enchantment or what?" Gates asked to the cashier.
"The enchantment is on it but it's incomplete as the last enchanter we had left for a trip and no word yet." She said.
By this time Yusuf had arrived and heard the last bit of the conversation between his master and the cashier, Gates asked her another question.
"Tell me, how much would these shoes be if it were enchanted and now as it is."
"As it is, 299 gold and if it were a complete enchantment, 450 gold coins." She said as Gates marvelled at the price, even Yusuf felt a sweat trickle down his spine at such price for a shoe. However, turning to him, Gates asked,
"You think you can?" Not explaining anything as it seemed obvious, Yusuf picked up the shoes and inspected it,
"Here." Gates said dropping 300 gold coins for the cashier as he walked away from it, leaving the shoes with Yusuf whom inspected it, activating his mana.
Soon Rosalia and Victoria came out as she walked to Gates whom stood at the Shoes section once more,
"Youngest master, I am finished with her...although, she does have no choice on what to wear except saying for you to choose whatever." Victoria said while looking between Gates and This woman named Rosalia, wondering their relationship...
Gates glanced at Rosalia whom looked away, still not paying it to mind, he looked at Victoria,
"No problem, I'll get myself measured as we talk about the designs I want for she and I." Gates said as he followed Victoria into her workplace, hundreds of mannequins in such a small place with either pieces of fabrics, completed clothes and incomplete clothes pinned down with thousands of needles.
"Now, what did you say you want?" She asked as the tapes flew out towards Gates...
"I want..."
...
"God damn, how long had we been in that store?" Gates said as he walked out of the store with yusuf whom had four bags in his hands, and Rosalia whom had two in hers. Gates walked in the boots he got, he liked them very much as Yusuf found a way to complete the formation inside...making the cashier and even Victoria flustered as she tried offering him a position as their enchanter.
However, not interested in enchanting hundreds if not thousands of clothes, shoes and accessories, Yusuf gently declined the offer preferring to roam with the madman he knew than the bore he didn't.
