Well, let's get on with it.

Wait a minute.

I had a strong helper, a woman, and I was about to head to the store as soon as possible, but Ilya stopped me.

'What's wrong?'

Mr. Alfried, you usually shop at the Triera Trading Company, don't you?

Yeah?

The relationship between the Sowlett family and the Tory family has been going on for decades.

These days, Tory's trade association has grown so large that when it comes to shopping, it's basically the Triera trade association.

'Have you ever invited them to your mansion to buy clothes?'

Yeah, you have?

'Oh, I see!　So now we can buy kagura clothes in the exact size?

Yes!

Aleusha says with a look of admiration and Ilya nods with satisfaction.

I don't really understand the meaning of their conversation?

What is this all about?

I tilt my head, and Roomba asks if I've been wondering about it too.

'The fact that you've bought clothes from the Triera Chamber of Commerce means that if you ask the people in the Chamber of Commerce, you'll find that they're not the same as Lady Erna and Lady Elinora's body shape.
It means you can see the numbers.

Do you have your customer's body count in your head?

'The Trierra Chamber of Commerce is very close to the Slaulet family, you see. They probably remember all the details of the entire family.

I see, we buy a lot of clothes from Tory's business association.

Naturally, they know our sizes and bring them to us, so if they tell us that data, we can buy the right size kagura clothes.

I also know the approximate height and clothing sizes of Erna and Elinora sisters, but I don't know anything about their detailed body shape figures.

It's a good thing that we're all aristocrats, Ilya. You know what a nobleman and the Chamber of Commerce are all about.

Good, then, let's go immediately to Tory to ask Erna and the others' body shape figures!

No!

Ilya's explanation convinced Roomba to go to the Chamber of Commerce to ask them about it, but he was stopped by two women.

As expected, even I, a dullard, could understand why they were stopped.

'It's not delirious to ask for a woman's figure figures!

This is the kind of information that only we, the same women, should know!

'Oh?　Oh, yeah!　I get it!

Packed by the spirited Ilya and Aleusha, Roomba unintentionally nodded while retreating.

As expected, Roomba also seemed to be defeated by the spirit of the ungainly woman.

''We'll go ask her, you two wait here!

Ilya and Aleusha said that to us and then walked off to find a merchant who had a free hand.

''Well it's hard being a woman, isn't it?''

They have their own set of rules and values.



You're not going to be able to do that.


As soon as Ilya and Aleusha got the information on Mother Erna and the others' body shapes from the female employees, we went to the clothing store.
I headed out.

Welcome. You're the gentleman who visited us the other day.

I've come to buy some kagura clothes for a souvenir today!

Thank you.

We came to a shop called "Wafuya Fuji" where we bought kagura clothes last time.

Maybe because we all wore the same kagura clothes we bought here, the shopkeeper seemed somewhat happy to see us.

Then let's pick out our own kagura clothes first!　When you're done with that, it's Master Alfried's family's kagura outfit!

Okay.

I guess Aleusha would like to do their shopping quickly. That's what I knew, but I decided to nod honestly because I thought it was too wild to go into it.

Ilya chuckles at this.

''Well then, let me show you around.

We're separated from the men's and women's teams and led by the clerk.

As we were led to the back of the room as before, we saw a lot of men's kagura clothes for men in calm colors and a lot of them were displayed in the room.
I was.

'I'm thinking of getting another jimba, but what about the Roomba?'

Originally, I was going to buy another jimbei for myself while I was buying a souvenir. But I don't know about the Roomba
No.

This jinbei is so cool and easy to move around in!　I'm getting another one!

It will be summer by the time we return to the village of Coriat. It will be summer by the time we return to the village of Coriat, so you'll be comfortable in your jimbei.

It's July now. If you are in Kagura, which is quite close to the beach, it's still cool with a sea breeze.

But after two weeks of traveling, I'm sure it will be a fine summer by the time I get back to the village of Koliat.

I don't think I'll be able to wear a cuffed men's kimono because it doesn't look good on me. That's the kind of thing Father Nord and Brother Silvio are for.
Just put it on.

'Al, what color jimbi are you going to wear this time?'

'Hmm, I've actually been wanting a greyish one like the Roomba. It's a calming shade.

'Oh!　What a surprise!　I was just about to get one of those dark blue ones like Al!

As soon as he heard my answer, Roomba said, somewhat happily.

What, we were envying the color of each other's jimbei?

Roomba and I look at each other's clothes and faces and laugh at each other.

'Then I'll bring you a jimbei that fits each of your sizes.

The shopkeeper, perhaps overhearing our conversation, chuckles and prepares to go.

As long as we can decide what we want, we men are quick to shop.

After quickly trying on a pair of jimbos of our respective colors, our shopping is over.

Now we are sitting on the tatami mat space and looking at Kagura clothes.

Doesn't Roomba have any interest in cattily dressed kimonos or anything?

It's going to be a pain in the ass to wear.

I asked out of curiosity, and Roomba answered with a frown.

The thinking around there is very similar to mine.

We sat there for a while chatting with each other. The waiter brought us a cup of tea, perhaps out of concern for us.

"Here's your tea.

Aren't they done with those guys yet?

He doesn't seem to be able to decide which color to use.

The shopkeeper replies to Rumba's question with a wry smile.

It's called bringing tea, and it looks like it will still take some time for Aleusha and Ilya to choose their clothes.

''Ilya-sama told me to pick out some Kagura clothes for Nord-sama and Silvio-sama when you have some free time, but.......what will you do?

While we were stunned as we drank our tea, the shopkeeper inquired in a tantalizing tone, "Well, do you want us to pick out some clothes for you?

''Well, shall we pick out some kagura clothes for Father Nord and Brother Silvio?

'Yes!　I'm bored.

Whether or not the kagura outfit we chose to wear will be adopted is another matter. I'm bored.

After we finish our tea, we go back to picking out our kagura clothes.

'A jimbei would be fine for Nord and Silvio too.

As far as Father Nord is concerned, he might be more comfortable in a jimbei, but I have a feeling Mother Erna won't be pleased.

I'm sure Mother Erna would take Dad Nord around King's Landing to try on some cool clothes, too. I think they also want clothes that are practical but not dressable.

'So women play a part in men's clothing choices too?

That's what having a family is all about, isn't it?

We looked at the jimbei on display, murmuring to ourselves.

I'm sure the color that looks good on the blonde Nordic father and Silvio's brother is blue.　We're both thin in line, and we don't look good in black or gray.

'Yeah. If he's going to wear black as a cape, but if he's going to wear all black in a jimbei or something, it's not going to look good on him.
Duh.

I don't know much about fashion, so it's completely based on feeling.

That's how me and Lumumba choose a blue-colored jimbei at random.

Silvio's brother and Nordo's father have similar hair color and thinness of line, so it's easy to choose them together.

So me and Roomba choose a jimbei and a kimono for my Nordic father.

When we decide on one, we decide right away. That's why we finished choosing our souvenirs so quickly.

All we have to do is get the sizing information from Ilya and Aleusha and leave it to the shopkeeper.

''What about Ilya and Aleusha?''

"...well, I'm just trying it on right now...

The clerk answers my question with some difficulty.

Well, women take a long time to try on clothes, and they do!

Roomba and I listened with a mournful look on our faces, and then lay down on the tatami.

Just then, a dark gray jimbei comes into my sight.

I'm sure sister Elinora would like that jimbei.

'Jimbei is easier to move in. Elinora would be more pleased with this than a kimono.

Sister Elinora always wears clothes that are easy to move in, even in the mansion.

The intuition in me whispers that Elinora sister will be happy with this one.

''Um, do you have a jimbei or something for women?''

"...What?　A woman is wearing a jinbei?　Women don't wear jimbos in our house...

I ask the clerk, what are you talking about?　I was given a look like this.

Apparently there is no culture where women wear jimbei like in my previous life.

'I think women should be allowed to wear a jimbei too.

Yeah!　I'd be cramped if I wore all those kimonos and other things that you layer up!

Roomba laughs as he agrees with me.

''Well I hadn't thought about it.''

The shopkeeper muttered with a divine look on her face, but if you don't have a women's version, you can have a men's version.

If it's Elinora sister, I've seen her every day even if I didn't want to, so I can at least get a general idea of her shape. I don't have breasts at all, so I'll take the men's version.
It's the same for me.

In the meantime, I'll buy a men's jimbei for my sister Elinora as a souvenir.
