Chapter 133 \n<h1>Chapter 133 – Wearing Kagura Clothes Stylishly?</h1>\n「……I became sober right away」

「……yeah, it’s frustrating since I can unexpectedly get addicted as I continue to eat it」

With a complex expression on their faces, Irvine and Mort said behind us.

There are tsukudani hanging on their waist, given by the old man of the Tsukudani’s shop as though it were farewell gifts. It was interesting looking at those two screaming because of the inago that I hadn’t seen in a long time. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

Naturally, it goes without saying that the contents are only inago.

We told them to send the other tsukudani that we bought to the ryokan so that we don’t carry any luggage with us.

「Serves you right」

「Ahaha, with this you guys are even, right」

That’s ‘cause Aleutia and Ilya were made to eat the octopus on the ship, huh. It looks like even the gentle Ilya has no particular intention to stand up for them.

「It’s alright if you’re used to it, y’know?」

「No, we’re fine.」

Perhaps Roomba is especially fine with it, so he recommended the inago tsukudani to Ilya – which he is eating as a snack. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

I also tried to eat one just now, but as expected, I’m still not used to it yet.

Certainly, that slightly tough texture is a fresh experience for me, but I hesitated when I looked at him.

It was pure black, soaked with soy sauce and even though I know that I shouldn’t look closely when I am trying to eat it, I wonder why can I see it clearly……..

「Ah, it’s a clothes shop」

While I was thinking about something like that as I walked, Ilya pointed to a building ahead of us.

There is a two-story building in that place, a signboard hangs at the front with 『Clothes Shop Fuji 』written on it.1

「That looks good. Let’s go and see some Kagura’s clothes」

Aleutia and Ilya run ahead to the front of the clothes shop while raising their voices in joy.

When I looked at their figures, I realized the fact that girls like clothes no matter what world it is. Seeing beautiful women looking like they’re having such a good time is really a feast for one’s eyes.

 

It’s as if the scene from the pillow fight yesterday was being washed away……..not good. It can’t be forgotten that easily. Especially the scene where Gunther fell on his back, that was……….

「What’s wrong? Alfried-sama?」

「……it’s nothing」

I half-run up to the clothes shop to keep up with everyone, despite the fact that Irvine is worried about me.\nThe interior of the shop is beautifully decorated, with brightly colored Kagura clothes and cloth being displayed inside. Even if you walked outside of the shop and saw that you would involuntarily stop. Though it’s not an extreme assertion or anything, it felt like the gentle beauty, the neat, and clean feeling are seeping out from the Kagura clothes.

 

Toward this kind of shop that has such an atmosphere of tranquility and sense of being long-established, it feels like it will be a bit particular to enter but because Aleutia and Ilya have already entered the shop the men were also able to enter without any concern.

The fragrant-like smell of tatami mats wafted in the air when I enter the clothes shop.

I feel a little nervous when I enter, but I manage to calm down after breathing slowly. The smell is similar to the smell at the ryokan’s room, it’s not something that will make you nervous.

「Somehow it feels high-class, isn’t it」

「That’s right. I feel out of place」

Perhaps they have never been in a shop with this kind of atmosphere before, Irvine and Mort appear to be a little uncomfortable. They don’t look like the same people who are making a racket, doing a pillow fight, or drinking sake at a high-class ryokan yesterday. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「We can just think of it like being at the ryokan, right」

「「Indeed」」

When I exasperatedly said that, Irvine and Mort quickly relaxed. Although I said that, you can’t have a feast or a pillow fight here, alright?

Ilya and Aleutia are happily looking at the Kagura’s clothes inside already, as they listen to the employees' sales talk.

「Welcome. Are you looking for Kagura’s clothes, dear customers? 」

At the timing when we were thinking ‘Should we also look for some suitable Kagura’s clothes’, a woman called out to us.

It’s a woman dressed in light cherry blossom-like colored clothes.

I wonder why do the employees of a shop like to interact with customers at such timing when the customers are about to act, it’s strange. Oh well, I’m not bothered by it this time, so it’s fine.

「Yes, we would like to look for Kagura clothes for men.」

「I understand. Well then, we shall go to the back, if you will」

When I answered, the woman bowed with a graceful movement and encourage us to go to the back. Apparently, the products near the entrance of the shop are mostly Kagura’s clothes for women.

As we followed the employee who guided us to the back, we arrived at a room that had the same appearance as the one from before.

There are Kagura clothes for men that have relatively calming colors displayed in the room, rather than the brightly colored Kagura clothes like the clothes at the front.

As we enter the room, we look at the Kagura’s clothes being displayed on the tatami mats in accordance with our taste.

If you look closely, there are also gaudy, bright-colored clothes for men, and some with elaborate golden embroidery on them.

You can clearly see that they put attention down to the details of the embroidery and the lines on the sleeve and the area around the collar.

「Ohー! This is the clothes that look easy to move in that I saw before!」

As I was looking at the Kagura clothes in the shop, Roomba picked up clothes that looked similar to a Jinbei. \n「That is a jinbei. It is something that has become popular in Kagura as casual clothes recently.」

 \n 

「I see, so it’s called jinbei, huh. This looks comfortable and cool to wear.」2

「It’s like wearing casual clothes, isn’t it」

The employee-san answered Roomba while smiling wryly.

That is the criteria for men to choose their clothes. We’ll gladly wear it as long as it’s practical.

Even Sylvio-niisan and Nord-tousan, should also wear more rough clothes.

This is by no means because of my inferiority complex and jealousy for them who dressed so properly, alright? This is my kind consideration for them since you should dress comfortably in the mansion, you know. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「You may try the clothes if you like, would you like to try?」

「Ou, please do!」

「I also want to try some jinbei for children.」

「Certainly.」

Such being the case, Roomba and I change our clothes into jinbei. 

◆

「……dear customer, it’s wonderful. Even though customer is still young, the jinbei truly suits your figure. ……how should I put it, you have such a presence that wouldn’t have thought of you as a child.」

The woman who helped me wear the jinbei said such things as she looked surprised.

The one reflected in the mirror is me, wearing a somber, deep blue jinbei.

「……thank you」

………I wonder why is it. Even though I should have been praised, I’m not feeling happy at all.A normal, young child would look cute if they were to wear jinbei, but that is not the case with me. With brown hair, sleepy-looking eyes, and perhaps it’s because of the fatigue from my previous life oozed out from my body that I look like an adult in the way I dress.

Though I’m not sure about the fact that a seven years old kid would even look good wearing jinbei……….

While somehow having a complicated feeling inside, I returned to the tatami mats space, but I found that there was no one there.

Irvine and Mort – who were still here just now – are probably also trying on some Kagura’s clothes.

I thought, and when I looked at the clothes to kill some time while waiting, Roomba's voice could be heard coming from the back of the room.\n
