The prepared carriage was not lavishly decorated, but was a simple box carriage with the bare minimum functions.
It's a carriage with little or no decoration, and is similar to the carriages often used by lower class aristocrats and wealthy merchants.
When Lady Michelle got into the carriage, her destination was the shopping district in the center of town.
You can find a lot of people who have a lot of experience in this field.
The area of the shopping district is large, and is divided into various clientele depending on the district.
Of course, Lady Michelle was headed to the district where the wealthy shop.
There are many stores in that area that sell luxury goods, and there are many high-end stores that are hard for the commoner to afford.
I'm not sure if I'll ever see it again. It's a beautiful place that I wouldn't have the chance to be in,
In this area, the streets were cleaned up and the air seemed to be crystal clear.
Many places where common people gather are not so clean, but this place was clean in every way.
The aisles were so wide that if you parked your carriage in front of a store, there would be enough room for another carriage to pass by it.
Many carriages were stopped in front of the store in the aisle where the carriage is now running.
You'll be able to find a lot of people who are willing to pay for your services.
"Hey old man, which store is Master Michelle going to?
It's a pastry store that the young lady has been loving lately. It's a popular store, so there's always a line in front of it.
Candy. I've never had one, but I wonder if it's good?
Sometimes the young lady buys sweets for her servants as well. It's so good that my cheeks will fall off.
Wow, I'd like to try one of those at least once. Maybe I wouldn't have a chance.
After confirming the destination from the guru man, with whom he had spoken a little and become friends, Dan again turned his attention to the beautiful cityscape.
◇ ◇ ◇
Later, the place where the carriage stopped was already lined with several carriages along the road.
Normally, if a nobleman's carriage stops, other carriages will give up their space to the carriage, but there is no one who knows that Michelle, who chose a simple carriage to hide her identity, is the daughter of the countess who rules this land.
"Come on, let's get in line. Follow me.
Lady Michelle jumped down from the carriage and got in line at the end of the line as if she was used to it.
Dan also noticed for the first time that she was not dressed for the carriage ride.
Had she changed clothes in the carriage?
Their current appearance is not so different from the women walking around.
When Mary stood next to Michelle, they looked like normal sisters.
Dan followed Michelle into the long line.
Even after Dan and his friends got in line, the number of customers increased and the line grew a little longer.
Hey, noblemen don't usually stand in line to buy goods, do they? I thought you were supposed to call the store's people at home or get priority entry into the store to buy it? And then the servants can go buy it?
This knowledge is something I learned from Label and Alice.
There are times when I go to a store, but even then I never have to wait in line.
It's a good thing that you're a member of the county's governing family, or else you'd have to wait in line to have your store demolished.
It's my choice. It's what I wanted to do, so stay out of it. You just need to keep me out of harm's way. Do you understand?
Michelle replied curtly.
It's true, Michelle, you're right. You wouldn't normally do this, would you? I'm curious too.
Dan had approached Michelle casually.
It was only at the beginning that he was careful to use respectful language.
Normally, I would get chewed out for using bad language, but Michelle didn't say anything in particular.
The line is slowly progressing while Michelle and the others are chatting, but it will still take some time to get into the store.
Michelle let out a sigh and replied to Dan, "I'm your father's only son.
I'm your father's only daughter. I'm not going to be the only one who has a good idea of what to do with it. I have been taught by my father that I cannot govern the territory if I disrespect the people just because I am a nobleman, so I will follow the rules and will never tolerate any injustice.
Michelle dismissed him with a clear face.
Dan's eyes widened in surprise as he never expected the Countess to say such a thing.
Michelle is amazing," he said, "even though she's younger than me. Even though you are younger than me, you are much more mature than me.
"What a stupid thing to say. It's really disrespectful to think of me as an adventurer who can do nothing but fight.
Michelle crossed her arms and puffed out her cheeks.
'Ha-ha, true. That's my fault.
Hmph, you'll understand. Be careful from now on.
Dan was surprised, as if he had only just realized what was going on.
But he didn't lie, and he didn't seem to be really angry, as Michelle knows that.
We're almost ready to go inside. This time I'll make sure Dan gets to eat as well.
After saying that much, he looked forward shyly.
Then I heard the voices of children from behind.
The children's voices are high, and they seem a little excited.
Hey, Hugues," he said, "we're almost there. We're almost there, aren't we? You can buy snacks with this money, can't you?
Raina, we're almost there, hang in there! Don't worry, I've already checked the price. You can buy one for this money.
"Really! Mom, what would you think if you saw the candy? Will you be pleased?
"Isn't he supposed to be happy? I'm going to buy it with the money that me and Raina have been saving up for a year. Your mother will be very pleased.
"Uh-huh. Looking forward to it.
From what I could hear, it seemed that he had picked out some sweets for his mother's gift.
As it is, Dan turned his attention to his siblings and saw two children dressed in commoner's clothing lined up in a row.
The older brother is about Dan's age and the younger sister looks younger than Lady Michelle.
The older brother held the younger sister's hand tightly and kept her in line to keep her close.
Michelle, like Dan, turned her gaze to her brother and sister for a moment, but they didn't seem to react.
Others in the line also looked at them, but no one else seemed to be interested in the child in commoner's clothing.
The line continued to go on, and when it was almost time to enter the store, an adult in line behind Dan and his friends started shouting loudly.
The man was wearing the most expensive clothing of the people in line.
Judging from the design of the clothes, he must be related to some nobleman.
You are finally here, this way. Get in here!
When the man says that, it's like he's calling someone from a distance.
Then three men come up to you from a distance.
The three men are of the same design as the man in line.
The men who arrived later joined the man behind Dan and began to interrupt the line.
You can find a lot of people who have been in the line, but there is no one to blame aloud.
It's a good idea to have a good time with your friends and family.
Really, it's a servant!
Michelle's cheeks were puffed out and she was getting angry.
It's a rare outfit, maybe it's from a different territory. This confectionery is a popular store, so it's no surprise that anyone would come to buy it.
Mary has aptly analyzed and pointed out.
Dan felt that she was a Mr. Lindbergh-like person.
'Interruption is a bad thing. You shouldn't do it.
At that time, a sister of a brother and sister said that to those who interrupted them.
This is a word that only a child can say, and she has no ill will.
It's a good idea to have a good time with them.
The people around him started giggling at the act.
In the midst of their laughter, one man, thinking they were laughing at him, suddenly became angry.
'What are you laughing at! Hey kid! Who do you think you're talking to?
I've been yelling at children in an adult manner.
I'm sorry. My sister is still little. I won't let her say it again.
It is a very good idea to be able to have a good time with them.
You can't just say "I'm sorry, that's not enough! I've been standing in line from the beginning and taking these guys' share. If you have a problem with that, speak up!
It makes me sick just to watch him start blowing up his children in a loud voice.
Whoa .......
For a moment, Dan was about to address the man, but swallowed his words with a gulp.
The reason for this is because of the possibility of harming young lady Michelle because of his actions.
Now Dan is Lady Michelle's bodyguard.
You should not act in a selfish manner.
Because I know that, I bent my will and swallowed my words.
But you can't hold back your frustration, and your expression is distorted.
You will be able to find out what is going on. I was taking your turn, but I didn't expect to be behind you. Now get in front of me.
"What ......!"?
Come on, come on.
Michelle said and winked at them.
"Michelle-sama ......?
Dan was also staring at the situation, stunned, unable to understand the situation.
Michelle moved directly in front of them and took hold of Hugues' hand and pulled him to the spot where she was standing in line.
'Finally, we're going to meet up. You can't just walk away from me now.
Michelle said and turned her gaze to Dan.
Finally, Dan caught on to Michelle's intentions and smiled.
'Hey, you've got to be kidding me. What's taking a turn? You know how we've been standing in line the whole time? Don't tell a lame lie to help.
I don't know what you're talking about. I'm two friends, and I've been taking their places beforehand. You guys are the same, right? You can't complain to me because we did it ourselves.
"Ggh! Screw you! Do you know who we are?
How would I know someone as unrefined as you?
Those around them began to giggle at the men.
'Shit. I hear you want to hurt me. You think you can't raise your hand just because you're a woman?
As he approaches, full of rage and madness, he raises his arms and strikes at Michelle.
Michelle watches the scene without even blinking.
'Ouch!
Later, it was not Michelle who screamed in pain, but the man who had struck her.
Dan grabbed the arm that the man had punched at and grabbed it on the way out and spun himself around, wrapping his body around the man's arm and holding it down to the ground in an instant.
The impact of the man's fall to the ground dislodged the man's shoulder bone, causing the man intense pain.
'Wow, you're not as strong as you look. Let me give you a little review.
Michelle tells Dan that.
It's not just the bow, Gulliver is also teaching me swords and body skills. I'm not afraid of this kind of opponent.
Dan stood up and took up position in front of Michelle and stuck out his left hand against the rest of the men.
