Episode 2-6 Invitation to Student Dormitory, Part II

I thought the student dormitory was a mansion. I'll settle the students' misconceptions and wait until everyone cools down from that surprise temporarily. They finally regained their composure.

All right, guys, I'm handing out the uniforms now, so you're gonna have to pick them up in order.

I told everyone that and asked Alice to hand out her uniform.

By the way, a uniform is a blouse with a skirt in two types of summer and winter clothes, a robe and knee high socks, and a set of outerwear tops.

"Then everybody in line. Hand out uniforms that fit your height, so come back later and let me know if they're not the right size."

Alice hands the uniform to each and every one of them. I couldn't help but notice that the student clothes had gone to everyone, but they were all bothered to look at the clothes they had received.

"Um... Master Lion? What are these clothes? It's amazing. It's really touchy."

Liana looks at me anxiously. I know you're surprised... but why are you so anxious?

"Say student clothes... it's like proof that you're a student at our school"

"Is that... is it possible that I have to buy it?

"Hmm? Oh, I'm sorry. Don't worry, I'll give you that."

"" "- Huh?" "

Everyone looked at me like I couldn't believe it at the same time.

"Oh, oh, uh, Master Lillion? I think these clothes are very expensive."

"Ah, what do you think?

I turn my gaze to Alice, the producer of the uniform.

"What, the value of a uniform? That's right... I don't see how expensive a king's meal would be."

"Damn. I can't get that horrible thing. Mm-hmm!

Liana in panic tries to poke her uniform back.

"Wait, wait. I mean, Alice!? That means rarity, right? If we're going to mass produce, it's not that expensive!?

"Huh? Right... I'm going to sell regular clothes, and I guess the price will settle in some time"

"Right? So, Liana, plus everyone else. Take those clothes properly."

"Ho, is it really good?

"It's okay, no problem. Besides, it's not that expensive."

"Including the initial costs, each villager will be able to play and live for several years."

"I knew I couldn't take it. Mm-hmm!

"Hey -!? You mean, Alice!?

Everything about clothing is made in the city of Mullet. So when it comes to the costs involved, labor costs are the majority. The cost shouldn't be that high.

Yet the villagers know for a few years that the cost of looms and facilities is included, no matter what they think.

So I stare at Alice lightly, asking her to do whatever she wants. Alice was laughing couscous as expected. Damn, it would be Alice who told me to weigh myself.

"I'm sorry. Uh... was that Liana?

"Yes. Dear Alice, may I?

"I don't need you. I'm not a nobleman."

Instead, it's a high elf - and when I say it, we're all going to graduate. No, I wouldn't say that before I weigh myself.

"Uh, bye, Mr. Alice. Was that a joke?

"Yeah, yeah, I was just kidding."

"So... uh, talk about value too?

"That's true."

"Awww."

No kidding! That's just too much.... that. Alice's guy, he's got a tender grin, but it doesn't feel like he's playing.

When that happens, is there something you want and are you making fun of me?... Is that it? Either way, it's no different that you're making fun of me?

Right, well, let's leave it up to Alice a little more to see how it goes.

"You know what, Liana? This is the only way to make that fabric. So now those clothes are still very expensive. But in a few years, nobility will be able to help. And in less than a decade, your father or mother will be able to wear it."

"Ugh, we're poor. So no matter how cheap this garment gets, you can't really buy it."

"Maybe I can't do it as it is now. But someday I'll be able to do that.... Ugh, I'll make it possible."

"So that you can, is it?

"That's right. Without the villagers suffering from hunger, without mourning the future of their children. Create a peaceful world where everyone you care about can laugh. That's what we do and what you do."

"A world where everyone can laugh..."

Liana squeaks pompously. To cut it off, the blurring spreads to the other children. That's the majority of the opinion that I wish I could be like that, but I can't possibly be.

Alice was listening to such a blur, but mostly hands up softly. For a moment, the children who noticed it shut their mouths - followed by silence by the other children.

For just a few seconds, the floor was wrapped in complete silence.

"You can't possibly do that. I know what it feels like to think so. But, you know, try to remember what you saw by the time you got here. You've never seen a sight like this before, have you?

"Well, with that said, the road was great until we got here."

"There was a building I'd never seen before."

"My sister, who guided me, said I could wash my body in hot water whenever I wanted in this city."

"If you can make that one, maybe -"

Everyone speaks up one after the other.

But the blurring didn't last long. Because everyone paid attention to Alice to hang up on someone's saying 'maybe'.

"I can't do it alone. I can't even get everything I can hold of Lion. But if everyone can help, I'm sure it will happen. So, huh? Help us. 'Cause I'm gonna make it happen."

In Alice's words, the light of hope begins to dwell in the eyes of the students. And when everyone's will came together, Alice continued quietly.

"That uniform is a testament to my people. Let's work together to make sure everyone we care about can laugh and live together."

"" "- Yes!

It is entirely Alice's private arena.

I don't know, I guess it would be nice if Alice did the protagonist, not me.
