Meiji and Arthur lead the others to a clothing shop.
Soba: "Lisa's Clothing Transport Shop? Long name."
Meiji: "Most guilds just call it the LCT Shop."
Arthur: "This is where all guilds go to get their special uniforms."
Seiteki thinks to herself before coming to a realization.
Seiteki: "Wait, THAT Lisa?"
Arthur: "Yep. She sends the design to the Mace Kingdom and then they transport the uniform right back. She's the only one who can do it efficiently."
Soba: "Shouldn't there be more guilds here?"
Ite: "Most guilds buy a multitude of uniforms in different sizes. I'm guessing we're here because we could afford to do that."
Meiji and Bakku laugh to themselves while averting their eyes.
Arthur: "Well, let's go."
They enter the shop and see the assistant to the sacred blacksmith standing behind the counter.
Lisa: "Welcome!"
She pouts when she sees Arthur.
Lisa: "So you and Merlin didn't make up?"
Arthur: "Nope. Told you so."
Lisa: "That is too bad. Well, for now let's get these uniforms in order. I'm guessing it's an order for four?"
Meiji: "Yep, me and Bakku already have ours. The design will be like his."
She points at Bakku.
Lisa: "Alright. I already have your measurements Arthur, so I'll send in your order now."
Lisa swipes her hand forward and her eyes glow green. After a few moments, a black outfit appears on the counter in front of Lisa.
Arthur: "The Mace Kingdom works fast."
Lisa: "Of Course. Clothing is their specialty."
Arthur heads to a dressing room. Lisa then points at Seiteki.
Lisa: "I need to get your measurements, so can you come to the back."
Seiteki follows Lisa to the back room. A few minutes later Arthur walks out the dressing wearing his new uniform. An all white uniform that matches Bakku's, with a name tag. "Arthur ACE"
Arthur: "Lisa isn't back yet? She never takes this long."
Not long after, Lisa and Seiteki leave the room looking embarrassed. Seiteki is wearing her uniform and her name tag says "Seiteki Mem"
Lisa: "Her...measurements were kinda hard to take."
Arthur and Bakku snicker.
Seiteki: "It's not funny."
Seiteki looks more embarrassed. Lisa then points at Ite.
Lisa: "You next."
Ite then follows Lisa to the back. A few minutes later they walk out with Ite wearing her uniform. Her name tag says the same thing as Seiteki's but with her name instead. Lisa then points to Soba.
Lisa: "You're last."
Soba and Lisa head to the back room.
Lisa: "Alright take your clothes off."
Soba looks shocked.
Soba: "What, why!"
Lisa laughs to herself.
Lisa: "I need to get your proper measurements. You don't have to take all your clothes off, just down to your underwear. "
Soba: "That's not much better."
Soba slowly starts taking his clothes off. Lisa gets close to him and starts measuring him.
Lisa: "This is probably bad timing, but I'm sorry about Luke."
Soba stops being embarrassed and gets a serious look on his face.
Soba: "It's not like it's your fault."
Lisa: "Still, he shouldn't have done that. I tried to convince him otherwise but when it comes to fairies, he's inhumanly stubborn."
Soba: "That's cool, but the fairies have nothing to do with me."
Lisa looks down.
Lisa: "I wish I could believe you. I don't think you're gonna destroy humanity, but in all honesty, the fairies terrify me. I was alive when they were in control. That mark is burned into my memory. I can't look at your hand and say that the fairies aren't involved, but I'm not gonna treat you any differently."
Soba pauses for a second.
Soba: "Thank you."
Lisa: "Well we're done here."
Lisa does the same thing she did when she ordered Arthur's uniform. Moments later a uniform appears in her hands with the name tag visible. "Soba Mem".
Lisa: "I got something extra for you."
Lisa hands him a pair of fingerless gloves. Soba smiles as he takes them.
Soba: "Thanks."
Soba gets dressed and the two of them walk out.
Arthur: "It suits you. So how much is it gonna cost us?"
Lisa thinks to herself.
Lisa: "Hmmm. 10,000 Peons should be enough."
Arthur looked confused.
Arthur: "Isn't that what you charged Merlin, Chisa and me? Did you forget to charge one outfit?"
Lisa smiles.
Lisa: "Nope. Soba's uniform is on the house. As an apology for Luke."
Soba: "Thanks."
They all start to leave the shop.
Lisa: "Wait! I can't believe I forgot. I still need to take your pictures for your Identification cards."
Arthur: "Oh yeah. I forgot too."
Lisa takes their pictures and they leave.
Meiji: "Alright let's head to our guild hall."
Ite: "Can we afford one of those?"
Meiji: "Not in a million years. But Arthur committed a slight crime and stole enough money from the Dragon Fangs to buy us one."
Ite and Seiteki looked shocked immediately. It took Soba a few more seconds to understand.
Soba: "Wait, we can do that?"
Arthur: "Not legally."
Dragon Fangs Guild Hall.
Merlin: "Hmm."
Karito: "Is something wrong?"
Merlin: "No, I just misplaced a small sum of money."
Karito: "How much?"
Merlin: "70 million Peons."
Karito falls over in shock.
Karito: "How did you- wait did you say small sum!"
Merlin shhs him.
Merlin: "Try to keep it down. Chisa might actually kill me if she finds out."
Karito: "Too late."
Merlin turns around to see a woman standing behind him with her arms folded.
Outside the White Petals Guild Hall.
Arthur: "Alright. Welcome to your new homes. I made sure to get more than six rooms in case we recruit more people."
Meiji: "Let's unpack our bags and then head back down for dinner. I'm cooking!"
Soba: "Bags?"
Soba then notices that everyone else is holding bags. Soba drops his head
Soba: "This sucks."
Arthur: "Don't worry my little subordinate. You can use my old clothes until we get your luggage."
Soba wails. They all walk into the guild hall and up the stairs. Everyone notices that they have rooms with their names on the doors.
Arthur: "I was really confident we'd convince you three."
Soba walks into his room. He sees a bed that can perfectly fit him with white sheets, a night stand next to the bed with a lamp on it, and a dresser with a Koshirae on it. Soba leans Chikara against the nightstand and plops down on his bed.
Soba: "Using magic really takes it out of you."
Chikara: "You're telling me."
Soba looks over and sees that Chikara has reappeared next to him. He proceeds to scream. Arthur rushes into the room.
Arthur: "What's wrong!?"
Soba: "Nothing, sorry. My sword spirit just got the drop on me."
Arthur's face softens.
Arthur: "You're gonna have to get used to that."
He starts to walk away.
Arthur: "Try to get along with him."
Soba: "Her."
Arthur: "Huh?"
Soba: "My sword spirit is a "her"."
Arthur looks puzzled.
Arthur: "That's odd. Most sword spirits match their user's gender."
Soba: "She's kinda different."
Arthur smirks before closing the door behind him. Soba looks at Chikara.
Soba: "So, you gonna tell me why you ditched me earlier?"
Chikara: "I didn't ditch you, I'm just not able to stay in this form while you're using magic. Anyways, it's not like you needed me around."
Soba lays down.
Soba: "Yeah I guess. Kinda worried about Ria though."
Chikara: "I'm sure she'll be fine."
Soba: "You're probably right."
Chikara: "I wonder what was up with Karito. I can tell that you two were close."
Soba: "I don't wanna talk about him right now. He's clearly lost his mind.
I'll beat it back into him soon. But right now, I need a nap."
Chikara: "Good night."
Soba reaches for the lamp.
Soba: "Night."
