Although we had unexpectedly ran into both Frea-san and Eingana-san, this timeās Lilia-san didnāt seem to be upset, and looked rather pleased instead.
I guess I should have expected this as sheās a fan of the Four Great Demon Dragons, and rather, it seemed like she welcomed this encounter.
Well, leaving Lilia-sanās greetings later, we should finish shopping at this store first. Eingana-san was especially interested in Aliceās store.
[ā¦ā¦These are wonderful. Shopkeeper, do you have a lute?]
[Yes, we do. Itās over here.]
[This is one of the Jupiter seriesā¦ā¦ I never expected to see the real one here. How much is this?]
Expensive! In Japanese yen, isnāt that already 4.8 billion yen!? No, Iāve certainly heard of musical instruments that cost several hundred million yenā¦ā¦ but the cost of that thing is just off the charts.
However, the fact that Eingana-san, who obviously seems to know a lot about musical instruments, said āI never expected to see the real one hereā must mean that itās extraordinarily rare.
And she immediately bought it!? Itās just a guess, but that lute is also probably made by Alice. For Alice, the profit for that seems to be tremendous.
Well, I did hear how scarcity gives something value, so I suppose there werenāt that much of things in circulationā¦ā¦
[Iāll also have that violin.]
[Yes, that would be 120 white gold coins.]
[Well then, here you go.]
Thatās a total of 600 white gold coinsā¦ā¦ Iāve never done that kind of shopping before, but Eingana-san is a wealthy person, as one would expect from an executive of the Six Kings.
It was an expensive purchase, but Eingana-san looked very satisfied with her purchase.
[Iāve made a great purchaseā¦ā¦ However, shopkeeperā¦ā¦ Who in the world are you? For you to acquire items like this, I canāt think of you as normal at all.]
[ā¦ā¦Fuuu, indeed, Iām not just a Transcendental Beauty Shopkeeper in a beautiful swan costumeāāā]
[Ahh, that guyās the Phantasmal King.]
[āāāāKaito-saaaaaaaaaan!? Why are you revealing that!? I was just about to reveal my identity after I made the coolest introductory remarks!!!]
[It was gonna take long and feels like youāll be annoying soā¦ā¦]
[Arenāt you too harsh!?]
That aside, that creepy chicken costume of hers was a swan huhā¦ā¦ To be honest, with it being white, at worst, I thought it would be some kind of duck.
[Oh, it was actually Phantasmal King-samaā¦ā¦ Iām sorry for my rudeness.]
[For my comrade to realize that though, that was splendid. Easily recognizing Phantasmal King-samaās identity, whose quality of magic power is completely different from oursā¦ā¦]
[No, well, rather than her magic powerā¦ā¦ the fact that there are no other people who wear such a creepy stuffed costume makes it easy for me to tell.]
[Kaito-san, Kaito-san, do you know what creepily cute is?]
[Yeah, I know that, but in my mind, your stuffed costumes donāt fall under that category.]
Hearing Frea-sanās words, I thought for a moment that it was quite obvious, but after thinking about it again, I realized that if I didnāt know that Alice was wearing costumes like that, I probably wouldnāt know either.
Besides, if someone had only met Alice as the Phantasmal King, itās possible that theyād mistake her for some charismatic king.
[ā¦ā¦Even though sheās originally smart, sheās an idiot.]
[I wonder why? I feel like Iām being treated like a big idiot here. I mean, didnāt you just say that out loudā¦ā¦]
Well, putting that aside, I couldnāt just chat with Alice for too long here, so I decided to say goodbye to her at an appropriate moment and joined the others.
[Speaking of which, where are Frea-san and Eingana-san heading now?]
[We were going to see the Sky Flower Princess Arielās performanceā¦ā¦ but Eingana wanted to see the instruments for sale, so we ended up moving the time of watching to the next play on schedule.]
[What a coincidence. We were actually just about to see Ariel-sanās presentation too.]
It really may have just been a coincidence, but it seems that weāre going to the same place as the two of them. While talking like this, we arrived at the place Lilia-san and the others are waiting for us.
