"Oh, I need your father's permission..."

"I thought so, so I've already spoken to the Marquis. You can go. Let's have lunch before we head out."

"Thanks, Alice!

With less joy, Silvi hugged Alice. Take it, Alice laughs.

"If that's all you're happy about, it's worth the invite. Drink your tea first. I want to do everything I can to make sure I can go out in the afternoon without worries."

"Yeah."

Away from Alice, Silvi sat down in a chair that was nearby. Take the tea placed on the table.

"Delicious..."

"I just recently got a new cup of tea. Come on, then I'll go because I have other business to attend to. Meet me in front of the entrance lobby after lunch."

"Okay. Thanks."

Alice was thankful, and Silvi grinned.

Honestly, it was pretty depressing, so I appreciate being able to change my mood. Silvi, who dropped off Alice, shook off her dark feelings earlier and decided to figure out which store to visit in town.

◇ ◇ ◇

The town, which I haven't visited in a long time, showed quite a bit of buzz, just like when I used to come.

Civilians, of course, are obviously aristocrats, and some of them are disguised.

I suppose it's to make sure you don't know it's noble, but it floats backwards because it's different from the civilian population in the first place because of its standing behavior, but he doesn't seem to realize it at all.

The shop facing the boulevard is called the popular store. There are many restaurants lined up and some have long queues.

Slightly off, there are also shops, bookstores, florists, etc. that handle expensive precious metals, and there are many different types of shops.

If you put it in the back street, there will be more stores dealing weapons and protective equipment in pharmacies selling special magic drugs, and the customer base will change. There are no foreign intrusions and no wars because we have ties in the country, but many demons live there. There were also taverns with inns and whorehouses where people in the business of defeating the demon would gather. It's a horrible story, but there are also intermediaries in the back streets for assassination requests, who occasionally interact with Boso in a liquor store or in a corner of the road, whispering.

Of course Silvi has never approached the back street, and I'm not going to, but I know what kind of place it is. My father taught me a few years ago not to get too close by mistake.

It's more obvious than seeing fire what would happen if noble daughters went to the back streets or something, even though they were about to be kidnapped just walking in civilian streets.

There are guards, but they rarely come to the back streets. Actually, they have a horrible group of cows running down the back street, and they maintain an inviolable relationship with each other.

"It's been a while since I've been here, but the boulevard store is replacing me again. This is always a war zone."

While walking down the most popular boulevard with Alice, Silvi looked around with Kyolokiolo.

There are many shops that have never existed before. Everywhere was queued up, in such a state that they could not line up if they were interested but could not afford a lot of time.

"Where are you, and where do you want to go?

In response to Alice's inquiry, Silvi said as she turned her gaze to the store along the boulevard.

"There was, but I don't see it, so I think I crushed it. There are a number of stores I'd like to go in, but they're lined up everywhere, and it could be difficult."

The store you were looking for in Silvi had turned into another one at some point. It was a delicious baked sweet shop, but it didn't seem to win in the war zone. The new store looked like a restaurant that had just recently opened and queued up to outside the store.

"I guess I want to check all the boulevard stores and then decide where I'm going to go in. If you don't have a lot of shops in line, you might be able to get in."

To Sylvie's words Alice said, showing a slight gesture of contemplation.

"Um, can I run my errands first?

"Fine, but what's Alice's errand?

"Kind of. Oh, Sylvie can't follow me. It's a little deep, so it might be a little dangerous for you."

"To a place like that? Is Alice okay?

"I'll be fine. It's not my first place to go, and I know a lot of ways to do it. But you've only walked about the boulevard, right? That's just the first time, neither should it take a noble daughter"

"... ok. I'm looking around the boulevard."

"Yeah. It's appropriately in the store. When I'm done with my errands, I'll look here and rendezvous."

"Properly...... then, if Alice doesn't come after two hours, I decide to come back here"

How many shops are on the main street? The store is glazed and you can still see how it is from the outside, but it would still be bone to go around checking every house. That's what I thought.

Alice smiles and nods.

"Okay. It's just the right time. I'll meet you here in two hours."

"Yeah. You're waiting."
