Darkening Guardian Knight

"I'm afraid it's because he can't attack anymore." Kate glanced at Joey and said cautiously, "If it's true what Joey said, that person may not be an ordinary kidnapper, but has some other purpose."

Kate guessed: "Maybe...he is your father's old enemy?"

"Is Joey's father very powerful?" Royard, who had been an audience for a long time, asked curiously.

"He is a powerful eighth-level magician." Kate's answer was concise.

"Oh..." The teenage boy immediately looked at the chestnut-haired little girl with admiration, "I didn't expect her to be a strong queen."

"Is Dad's enemy? It's possible..." As for Kate's conjecture, Joey agreed.

After all, apart from Joe and the mysterious town, she doesn't have many ways to get in touch with advanced practitioners.

"If that's the case, you've got to watch out, Joey. That guy might come back later!"

"Yeah!" Joey nodded obediently, feeling that the air was a bit too heavy, so he squeezed out a smile and said in a lively atmosphere, "Anyway, it seems that the problem is not big now, and Dad's insurance can still be used twice. So worrying about something is completely unnecessary!"

"That's right." Kate breathed a sigh of relief, "Then, let's go back! The business district seems too dangerous."

"That can't be done!"

Joy, Flim and Royard objected in unison.

"I just came here to buy clothes for you. What's the point of going back like this?"

The three refused to be justified.

"..." Kate was speechless.

She really wanted to say that she just bought a batch of clothes a few days ago, but she didn't have to buy them.But seeing the enthusiasm of the three of them, she was too embarrassed to refuse.

"Okay then, let's go back after shopping for clothes..."

So, Kate led a group of people back to the empty shop that she went to before.

"Hey, hey... To be honest, is this store okay?" No matter how he looked at it, Royed felt that this kind of store was unreliable.

Kate said: "No problem, I always buy clothes here. The quality of clothes in this store is quite good."

"Hey...then let's look forward to it." At this time, Flimm gradually recovered from the previous shock, and the desire to choose clothes for Kate completely replaced the horror of being attacked by a mysterious master.

"Boss, bring me ten pieces of old-fashioned clothes." As soon as Kate entered the door, she greeted a middle-aged man sitting in front of the counter with ease.

He is the owner of this shop.

The old man raised his head slowly, and when he saw that it was Kate, he pointed to the small wooden cabinet next to the entrance and said, "The third row, the second compartment, is full of the style you want."

"Oh, thank you, boss." Kate replied politely, and opened the drawer, only to see that there were all black suits of the same style inside—exactly the same as the one on Kate!

new clothes

"Um, Kate, is that what you call, good quality clothes?" Royard rubbed his temples, looking like he had a headache.

"That's right." The black-haired girl nodded and said honestly, "This set of clothes is quite cheap, only 50 Guangming coins each. And it won't feel cumbersome when wearing it in battle, it's very light. The fly in the ointment is , this dress has no defensive power, but in terms of cost performance, it is really good."

"Maybe that's true from the combat point of view... But no! If I only compensate you for such inferior clothes, I will feel very sorry! And it seems, Kate, you guys don't have anything other than this kind of clothes." Do you have other clothes?"

"Well, it seems that there are not many of them." After thinking about it carefully, Kate found that it seemed to be the case.

When she left Fernand, the old man gave her some women's clothing casually.After breaking a few pieces in the arena, Kate found that women's clothing was not enough, so she started to go to this small shop to buy this black combat suit.

So, now Kate has nothing else in her wardrobe except for the wholesale black suit!

"Is that really the case?" Royard read the answer from the black-haired girl's reaction.

He was overjoyed in his heart, and said to Kate: "This is not okay, Kate. Although I know you like fighting very much, you still need to prepare a few more sets of clothes that you usually wear. After all, you can't always wear this simple combat uniform, can you?"

"That's right, then come and see Lloyd, I'm not very good at buying clothes." Kate didn't hesitate too much, and lightly threw this difficult matter she found to the teenage boy.

Royard was so happy, he agreed wholeheartedly: "Don't worry, leave it to me! I know there is a good women's clothing store on the south side of the main road of Commercial Street, we can go there and have a look."

"Ah! As for women's clothing stores, I know quite a few!" Seeing that Kate entrusted Royard with the purchase of new clothes, Flym couldn't help interjecting, "Kate, how can such a thing as buying clothes be so difficult?" What about boys? Of course I know better as a girl too!"

After Kate thought about it, she felt that what the red-haired girl said made sense: "That's right, then listen to Flym?"

"No! It's definitely my choice that is more suitable for Kate! Believe me, you will become the most beautiful queen!"

Royard showed his stubborn side and said very forcefully, hoping that Kate would change his mind.

"No! It must be my eyesight! I know exactly what kind of clothes Kate should wear to look good!" And Flym didn't admit defeat, arguing with Royard, "Kate, are you right?"

"Well... I'm casual." As far as Kate herself is concerned, she can actually wear anything, but she doesn't want to see Flym and Royard quarreling, so she turned to the little girl beside her and said, "Joey, what do you think?"

"Hey, ask me?" Joey found that his eyes were suddenly focused on him, and he felt inexplicably stressed.

She caught a glimpse of the serious eyes of Flym and Royed, and felt that no matter which side she turned to, it was not good.

"Hmm... I don't think it's better for Sister Flim and Brother Lloyd to put their ideas into action, right? That way we can tell the difference." After thinking for a while, Joy finally came up with a compromise .

"That's right! It makes sense!" Flym first agreed with Joy's remarks, "Well said! Let's choose a dress for Kate each! Let's see who chooses the perfect one! How about it? The elite class , dare to compare?"

"Hmph! Why don't you dare?" Royard was also very satisfied with this proposal, "You will understand, only my clothes are the most suitable for women like Kate!"

"Hehe, let's wait and see! I must be the one who wins in the end!" Flinm acted vigorously, and immediately pushed the door out, displaying a more agile movement than in the previous few days of fighting, and quickly disappeared in the business district in the vast sea of ​​people.

"Tsk, it's so fast." Royard smashed his mouth and turned to Kate and Joey and said, "You two stay here and don't move around. I'm going to buy a dress, and come as soon as I go."

After all, he also blessed himself with wind magic, and left in the dust.

The little girl who made this suggestion was already stunned.

"Wait, I mean... we can go shopping slowly and try on clothes... there is no need to be in such a hurry..."

It's a pity that Joey's true thoughts are destined to be unable to convey to those two quick-tempered people.

new clothes

"Well... Forget it, let them go." After sighing, the little girl no longer struggled with why the situation turned out like this.

She thought about it carefully, and felt that even if she said her true thoughts, she would not be able to stop those two from competing.

It seemed that the noise from Kate's side had alarmed the shop owner. The old man stood up, walked over, pointed at Kate, and asked gently, "Are you picking out clothes for this child just now?"

Seeing the store owner approaching, Joey straightened up politely and replied: "Well, yes. We want to buy a set of clothes for Miss Kate... You see, Miss Kate has been buying for a long time. They are all combat suits, and they don’t have their own regular clothes. So we took this opportunity to choose a suitable and beautiful new dress for her.”

"Oh, that's how it is. What a group of loving little guys. Your...is your name Kate? I remember that you often visit my store, and I want to do my part."

The store owner showed a very gratified expression, and said kindly to Kate, "What kind of clothes do you need?"

"As long as it's convenient for you to move around." Kate still had that indifferent attitude, "Of course, if it has high defense, magic resistance, and affordable price, that would be even better."

"Hmm...Miss Kate is indeed the ultimate pragmatist, just think I'm asking the wrong person." Hearing Kate's words, the smile on the corner of the owner's mouth twitched slightly, and he turned to ask little Joey, "Then, this friend of Miss Kate——"

"My name is Joey, Joey Victoria."

"Oh, so Miss Victoria, what kind of clothes do you think is more suitable for Miss Kate?"

"It's more suitable..." Joey fell into deep thought after hearing this.

She had imagined Carter's appearance in women's clothing a long time ago, and she had already had a rough idea in her heart.

She firmly believes that if Kate wears the dress she imagined, she will definitely become the most beautiful person in the world!

But even though she has an idea, it is quite difficult for her to describe it in words at once.

The process of turning my vague and scattered fantasies into tangible words has never been easy.

"That dress, it should be a pure black one-piece dress dress...with light gauze and lace skirt...the fabric should be soft and the weave should be delicate...it will give people a dreamy feeling...generally It's like this..."

Joey clumsily and tried hard to describe the impression of the dress in his mind, but he still felt unable to express that artistic conception.

After all, that dress was just her imagination, not real.

She had never seen such attractive clothes.

However, the store owner seemed to understand what Joey meant.

He nodded and said, "Oh - it's clothes like this, I understand."

"Huh?" Joey was taken aback for a moment, "Do you understand, manager?"

"Hehe, yes." The store owner smiled, opened the wooden cabinet closest to him, and took out a very neatly folded dress from it, "Look, is it like this?"

Joey reached out to take the dress, snapped it open, and saw the whole picture of the dress.

"This is that dress?! Unbelievable!" Joey's eyes widened, unable to believe the scene in front of him, as if he was living in a dream.

The dress that the store owner took out was almost exactly the same as the one in Joey's impression!

Exquisite silk texture, superior craftsmanship, it is black but shining with invisible light, everything is no different from my dream.

But the clear touch in his hand told Joey that these were real clothes, not his own false fantasy.

"My God! Is there really such a dress in the world? It's a coincidence!" Joey blinked, wondering in his heart, "But, this dress is so beautiful... even more beautiful than the one in my dream..."

"This dress...it's so beautiful..." Seeing this dress, even Kate didn't hesitate to praise her, "I might like this one quite a bit. Although it doesn't seem to have any defensive capabilities, it's not easy to move."

"Well, indeed, this is a nice dress." The store owner said as if boasting, "Ahem, what do you think? Does this dress meet your requirements?"

"It matches... right?" Joey said uncertainly, "Sister Kate, what do you think?"

"Okay, just this one." It seems that Kate really likes this dress, and she is very straightforward, "How much does this dress cost?"

"Well... To be honest, I have never sold a dress of this quality." The shop owner said distressedly, "Well, this dress is a gift from me, as a benefit for regular customers."

"Send it? Isn't it good?" Kate can feel the preciousness of this dress. Such a quality dress must be worth a lot of money. Although she is a frequent customer of this store, she only buys 50 pieces of wholesale suits. , and did not consume much.

The store owner has no reason to give such a beautiful and expensive dress to himself.

"That's right, it will make the little guy feel uneasy if you don't charge some money for clothes of this level?" Seemingly feeling Kate's thoughts, the shop owner murmured, and then changed his words, "I was joking before, such a beautiful Clothes, how could I give them away so easily?"

"Sure enough, let me ask the store manager, how much does this dress cost?" Kate breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that.

"Buy it now, [-] Bright Coins!"

"Ten thousand..." Kate was a little confused.

Ten thousand Guangming coins was her income for more than ten days. It would be too expensive to pay this price just to buy a good-looking dress.

"Bought!!"

Two New Clothes

"Bought!!"

This sudden voice did not come from Kate's mouth, but came from outside the door.

"Royald, are you back?" Kate recognized the voice and turned around.

Sure enough, I saw the figure of the young-haired boy pushing the door of the store, "It's so fast, have you bought the right clothes yet?"

"Ah...don't talk about it." The young man looked a little embarrassed, hid the bag in his right hand behind his back, and sighed softly, "With this dress in front of you, you won't be able to take out other clothes at all!"

He turned to look at the shop owner and said seriously, "Is that [-] Guangming coins? I bought it for Kate!"

"Royald, I can still get [-] Guangming coins, there is no need to help me pay..." Kate didn't want to owe too much favor to Royard, and just wanted to decline, but she didn't even finish her sentence. It was rejected by Royard.

"It's okay!!" The young-haired boy roared with a sullen face, "I'll just pay for it!"

"Royard..."

"I was the one who ruined your dress, but now there is a dress that suits you, of course I should buy it!"

Royard plausibly said, "It doesn't matter how much it is! Because that's what I should compensate you!"

"Let's talk! Do you think I'm short of this money?"

"Alright then." Kate also knew that it was impossible for Royard to be short of money.

Unlike himself and Joey, he is a descendant of a big family and has far more resources than he imagined.

Maybe the price of buying this dress is just a drop in the bucket for him?

Seeing that Kate agreed, Royard felt a lot more relaxed.

Just as Kate thought, [-] bright coins may be a huge amount of money in the eyes of others, but to him it is just a small amount of money.

The formal dress that was originally intended to be given to Kate in the bag in his right hand at this time alone cost more than this price.

"Kate, don't you want to try this new dress?" After paying the full amount, Royed looked at the black-haired girl expectantly, "Will this size be too big or too small? Is there anything that needs to be adjusted?"

"You should have asked this kind of question earlier." Kate said with shame, "I have read it, and there should be no problem with the size. This dress seems to be tailor-made for me."
