Raised the Villainous Daughter and Ran Away

31. The largest clothing store in the empire

Me and Frances left the mansion. This time it was a formal outing, not using a dog hole or jumping out a window to sneak out.

“It feels awkward to go out like this.”

“This is normal.”

I boarded the carriage prepared at the entrance of the mansion. Said the duke’s coachman.

“Where can I take you?”

“Clothing store, Frida Road.”

“Yes. I will leave right away.”

It’s rattled. The carriage moved.

“How long does it take to get to the clothing store Frida from here?”

“It won’t take long. There is a straight road from the duchy to the ecliptic.”

Is it like a highway? It’s such a convenient thing. But I think I’m forgetting something.

‘Ah.’

I was supposed to take Kazar, but I didn’t bring him. He needs to see the inside of the factory himself. I told Frances.

“We need to take Khazar.”

“Why?”

“It’s okay to explain the inside of the factory, but seeing it with your own eyes will be faster and more accurate.”

“Hmm.”

Talk. Tok. Frances tapped the coach’s couch with her index finger.

“Okay, let’s take him along on the way.”

“Then I will tell the coachman.”

I opened the front window of the carriage and gave the address to the driver.

“The princess wants to stop by here for a while.”

“Yes, I understand.”

How far did he travel in a wagon like that? I was standing in front of a familiar mansion.

“I have arrived.”

“Wait a minute.”

I got off the carriage and knocked on the door of the house where Kazar lived.

“Kazar. Grow. Open the door.”

Knocked up. The door opens and long black hair flutters. It was Khazar.

“Uh, what are you doing? Is it princess tutoring time?”

“That’s not true. It’s something we have to do, as I said before.”

“Oh, yes.”

Kajar said, “Wait a minute.” Then he went inside and got ready to leave.

“Let’s go.”

That’s how I boarded the carriage to Kazar, and Frances was alone on the other side. And me and Kazar sat side by side.

France’s eyebrows twitched when she saw that.

“Do you really have to sit together?”

“Then I will get up and go.”

“I don’t mean that… ….”

Frances shook her head and sighed.

“It’s done.”

“What is it? It makes people curious.”

Ka-Zar tilted her head as if she didn’t understand Franche. But was he originally like this? I asked her

“Kazar. If you use gender reassignment magic, will your personality change?”

“Yes. Sudden hormonal changes can lead to opposite personalities.”

That’s why he was such a stiff and blunt character in the game. Right now, she’s just a wild girl.

“But why are you asking that?”

“No, just curious.”

“You seem to have been interested in gender-changing magic since the other day. If… ?”

What kind of crazy thing is he talking about?

“It’s not like that, so don’t worry.”

“Sorry. I wanted to try it on someone else too.”

Sounds scary. Of course, there will be people who welcome it. There were a lot of people who liked it in modern times…….

As Ka-Zar and I were having a good conversation, Frances opened her mouth, frowning.

“You two are on good terms.”

“Yes? Isn’t that just normal?”

“Hmm.”

For some reason, Frances looks at me with cold eyes. What did i do wrong

“If you have time for such small talk, please teach me some magic.”

“Oh, is that so? I had nothing to do anyway.”

Ka-Zar shifted her seat and sat next to Frances.

“Okay then, let’s start the magic lecture.”

Kazar started tutoring magic while having conversations. Maybe it’s because Frances is quick at learning magic and absorbs it like a sponge, so Kazar also has a taste for teaching.

‘You look happy.’

If Frances uses magic, it’s not enough to raise his own value, so he will be able to show great results in future plans.

‘Well, it’s only possible if the business is successful, so it’s a distant story.’

Still, as long as I set my mind to it, that time will come.

During the short ride in the wagon, Frances understood and absorbed most of Khazar’s teachings. It was Kazar who could not hide his embarrassment.

“Princess, where did you actually learn magic?”

“This is my first time. Learning math is all Jin taught me before.”

Kazar’s eyes widened.

“No, that person taught me math? I thought you lived only with a sword because your muscles were weak?”

What does he see me as?

“Even now, they used to be royalty. This level of education is basically received.”

“Ah, I forgot you were royalty.”

What does he really see me as? But what It’s like I’m actually cheating. Because the original Jean Barenberg is a member of the royal family, and the person inside is Kim Kong-ryak, a million-muteuber.

I looked at Frances and said.

“Princess. Try using the newly learned magic.”

“Is there anything I can use in the wagon?”

“Isn’t that one of the things I told you about?”

“Oh, that.”

What is that? Except for me, only they talk about fun things. Frances looked at me and smiled.

“I will show you. It’s still incomplete, so I don’t know if it’ll work out.”

The magic power was condensed in France’s fingertips, and the air around her began to stir. Then, a black mist rises. I knew it. France’s attribute was darkness.

“Look at this! I used magic for the first time!”

France smiles like an innocent child. Looking at her, I couldn’t help but smile of her pride. The moment I opened my mouth.

[The player’s immersion increases.]

[Synchronization deepens.]

Oops, I wanted to. I was told to be careful.

[Person – Jean Warenberg]

[Some of the character’s memories are inherited.]

Chrill! Headache that feels like my skull will break again. Struggling to keep my expression from crinkling, I raised two fingers and pressed them to my temples.

「Has it failed this time too? This long journey shows no signs of ending. What should I do…….」

Some memories of Jean Warenberg crept into me again. Same as last time, same this time. I don’t know what this memory means.

Fortunately, they didn’t notice that I had a headache.

Kajar quietly looked at the black smoke swirling in France’s hands, then clapped his hands in admiration.

“Oh, the darkness is right! You have a rare attribute.”

“So what?”

“Yes! Divine and dark attributes are rare and hard to find. Before that, even wizards are rare.”

I knew that Frances was a warlock. Is Khazar a Divine Attribute? I was curious and asked.

“Kazar. Do you mainly use divine attributes?”

“No? I can use all attributes except darkness and earth.”

What is that munchkin character? If I could use it like that in the game, I would have been able to break it with my feet in the last chapter.

‘I lost that ability because I changed it to a man.’

It’s irrelevant now, but it’s just pitiful.

Kazar asked.

“Why do you look like that? Were you surprised that he is a greater wizard than you thought?”

“Yes. Having competent mages in our France Corporation is reassuring.”

The faces of Kazar and Frances crumpled after hearing my words.

“I’ve been telling you since the other day, what is that strange name? I feel a little bad about my name.”

No, what about France Corporation?

“I will. It’s like some weird cheap top.”

“… ….”

No matter what you say, France Corporation will not give up…….

I just stayed silent. Someday, when the Franche Corporation dominates the upper reaches of the empire, such words will disappear…….

At that time. The carriage stopped.

“I have arrived.”

The coachman’s words echoed, and I was the first to get off, and I held their hands so that they could come down safely in their shoes. Kazar said to me with a mysterious face as if he was surprised.

“Oh, you are considerate of me too.”

“Then you can’t help it.”

Seeing this, Frances said. Her voice was harsh, like a prickly pear.

“How long are you two going to hang out together?”

“Oh, sorry.”

“It’s not like I’m sorry. Let’s go.”

Kazar and I followed Frances while touring the ecliptic. Coming to the ecliptic, I realized that I had really entered the game world.

Because the area where I lived the most while playing ‘Ropanso’ was the ecliptic.

‘Seeing this scenery in real life makes me feel strange.’

Kazar said, looking around as if his head would break.

“It’s my first time visiting the ecliptic, but it looks really splendid.”

“Sure. Whether you look here or there, everything is gorgeous.”

“What was the reason the empire was able to develop like this?”

“I like the land.”

Khazar shook her head.

“No, not that. I’d like to know more about why. Who doesn’t know that the empire’s land is vast and good?”

For detailed reasons, I think I’ve seen it in a book before. The reason why great powers were able to develop.

‘I like the land’ is the standard answer, but there is a surprisingly simple secret to that. I explained it to Kazar.

“It’s rice.”

“Bob?”

Ka-Zar tilted his head, as if asking what the hell he was talking about.

“Now that the food problem has been solved, I can invest in other things. The biggest problem for humans is clothing, food, and food during the week. As long as there is food, the population will increase, and as the population increases, righteousness and state will naturally be resolved.”

As expected, Kazar nodded.

“Then, since food, clothing and shelter were solved naturally, you could have invested in other things? Whether it’s military power, cultural life, or technology.”

I nodded and said, “That’s it.”

“But didn’t you know these things even though you are a noble?”

“Because I skipped all classes and devoted myself to studying magic. So I am an outsider to that kind of thing.”

You’re the so-called magic geek. Yes, there are people like that. People who are passionate about what they like and become the best in that field. The problem is that other than that, I’m an outsider.

At that time. Frances, who was leading the way, stopped.

“We have arrived. Frida clothing store.”

A building that is taller and taller than any other building in the ecliptic. At the entrance, there were knights exuding unusual energy, and gorgeous dresses were displayed beyond the glass windows. Jewelry was also on display, as if they were selling trinkets.

“Definitely. It doesn’t look like an ordinary clothing store from the outside.”

“Tolerable young ladies and ladies use this place. When it comes to clothes and accessories, this place has a tight grip.”

Frances continued, tapping his left hand with the fan he was holding in his right hand.

“There are Frida clothing stores all over the empire. There are no products not covered here. That’s why the clothing business is difficult.”

It must be some kind of franchise concept. I tried to use it first, but someone already used it. He must be a master in the business.

“Let’s go in. I’ll show you the details inside.”

I nodded. Kazar swallowed his saliva when he saw an overwhelmingly large clothing store he had never seen before.

– The door of Frida’s clothing store opens and a bell rings. The waitress came running.

“Welcome, customer.”

“Welcome, customer.”

A straight posture. Polite greeting. One common uniform. It’s a real franchise. Frances shook her head and said. Her eyes were unusual.

“Princess Descartes. I came without a reservation today, no problem, right?”

At the word Descartes, the eyes of the employees widened.

“Wait a minute! I will call the madam!”

The receptionists rushed inside. We passed the time looking at the dresses on display.

“Definitely like the best clothing stores, even the basic dresses are of great quality.”

“Do you understand?”

“Sure! Even if I look like this, I’m Lady Youplane?”

Ah, come to think of it, he was a nobleman. I forgot because there was no grace at all in what I was doing. Frances said with a smile.

“Upstairs there are even more amazing dresses. Custom made is better.”

“Ohh… …. Is there a better dress than this?”

“Yes. Both the design and the texture. There are many dresses that have no flaws.”

It’s all the result of exploiting the ‘talent of a thousand gold who faced misfortune’. For details, it would be faster for them to check the factory with their own eyes.

That was then.

“Princess Descartes! It’s been a long time since you came to see me in person!”

Madame of Frida, the best clothing store in the empire, has appeared.

It’s time to rob that madam.
