A few days after the meeting at the Young Leaf Pavilion in Spring.

We decided to visit Sylvia's tailor.

When I took Garnett in the name of the escort and Noir in charge to the rendezvous point, there was not only Sylvia but also Sakura's appearance.

"Sorry, I kept you waiting. Is Sakura coming with you?

"I've been trying to get the clothes I've been ordering for a long time. 'Cause I pulled it up late from the second tier and left it in storage longer than I had planned."

"Are you sure you're working with Travis' party now? Sounds like a lot of trouble over there, too."

Walk through the Green Hollow township after Sylvia with casual everyday chatter.

Sakura helps me with my work a lot, but my career in the West (here) is only an adventurer.

Naturally, Theodore has been participating in the exploration of the 'Ark of Elements' since before he discovered the Fourth Hierarchy, so the main place of activity is the Second Hierarchy, which has been at the forefront of his previous exploration.

"Did you even order clothes for a dress?"

"No way! I ordered spare clothes for everyday use!

Garnett teased me and Sakura blushed her cheeks lightly to argue.

Apparently, they both think of Sakura's dress when they used to visit Wang Capital, and each reacts differently.

That did look good on me, but I'm not forced to feel it doesn't suit me either because it's totally different direction than my regular Sakura outfit.

"The tailor is really smart enough to replicate my Oriental-inspired clothes. It's hard to get in the West, so I've been looking after you for quite some time."

"Huh. I thought we were looking at that product while we didn't know it."

"Don't be. What I'm wearing today was also made by him (...) woman (...)"

Sakura let him gently pull the collar of his oriental outfit.

"It was made in the Orient when we first met. You don't know what's different... it's a big deal"

"We use just different materials, so there's a difference in comfort. Although it's not the difference that one is inferior."

Reproduce Oriental-style clothing that is different from the structure, of such quality that Sakura, who has been accustomed to wearing it since before coming to the West, praises it - this is all you can ask about the tailor's skill.

Now that I think about it, more than a year after Sakura met me, I guess I was able to pierce my own outfit without saddling into Western-inspired clothes because of the source of the matter, the tailor.

I didn't realize until recently that there were such craftsmen... well, eighty-nine, because I didn't show interest in that aspect.

"Oh, speaking of when I first met you,"

Sylvia, who was walking at our head, slaps her hand in the face.

"The people here now, that's the touch on Mr. Luke's face right after he started the White Wolf store. I miss you."

"... Speaking of which. Back then, everything was hand-picked."

Even more before the war against the Demon King's army became full-blown.

It is now just after the Hollow Bottom Fortress, half of which has been renovated to the Adventurer Alliance Branch, finally begins to be fully operational with completion.

Until just before that, the only regular White Wolf store employee was me, the manager, and Sylvia and Sakura continued to help me with the favor, but Garnett was also added there as an escort from the Silver Wings Knights.

But still unable to cope with the ever-increasing demand, it was about time that we didn't turn around if we didn't get new jobs, and a new noir joined us as staff.

He seemed only intent on sinning, but as far as I'm concerned, if he works properly, he has no complaints - eventually Noir became an indispensable part of the White Wolf store.

If they say one day when the White Wolf store has built its current standing, it will still mean after the addition of noir.

Of course, Erica and Alexia, who joined shortly afterwards, are not easy to replace, and Leila, who came a little late, has helped me a lot.

"I thought I'd come a long way. I feel a lot more adventurous than the fifteen years I've been an adventurer, even though the hub hasn't moved from Green Hollow and the Ark of Elements."

"I didn't mean the smell of old people. It's not too early for recreation, is it?

"There's no way you're gonna retire. It's still coming."

Sylvia laughs at me and Garnett interacting sideways, tickling.

Noir also looks somewhat smiling.

"Mr. Luke, it's time to arrive. Look, it's that building over there."

What Sylvia pointed to was a building that had no philosophy whatsoever blended into the township.

It is a very discreet shop structure that is easily overlooked if you don't know it from the start, although it can be seen as a tailor from the signs posted.

"Sorry to bother you. Mr. Miranda, are you there?

Sylvia opens the door without hesitation and walks inside.

Sakura followed it naturally, so we decided to ask her to excuse us.

The store has an atmosphere closer to the workplace than… the store.

All that's on the shelf is the fabric of the ingredients, not the product, and the finished product of the clothes doesn't really catch my eye.

Apparently, they manufacture one at a time every time they order, and they're not going to adopt a policy of attracting customers by arranging beautiful finished products in stores, like those seen in the city.

"You're an artisanal tailor."

"Do you understand? He doesn't even seem to be very intent on attracting new customers, and most people go new with regular referrals, like Sakura. But don't worry, I won't say no."

I haven't been worried about that area since the beginning.

Because I don't really think Sylvia would introduce a tailor who would push a new customer back.

Rather, it is proof that at a time when we can do it without problems with such a sales policy, we have the strength not to grasp and let go of customers who come to the store on a regular basis or with their referrals.

"Miranda, huh?

Again, Sylvia calls toward the back of the store.

Then this time, a carefree woman's voice returned.

"Yes, yes... you're Sylvia. I'll be right there."
