Chapter 63 – Innocent Soul.

[My name is Jade Stratos. Errm…an independent equipment craftsman. Well actually it's only been three months.]

I see. I think I kinda get what Jade wanted to say..

[In other words, you want me to wear your equipment that you haven't sold yet to advertise it.]

[Yeah, I bet it'll be very convincing. You're a very strong warrior, judging from the wear and tear on your clothes. How about it? In exchange for for the discount, I only want you to attach this to the equipment.]

Jade took out an emblem with "Stratos Equipment Store" on it from the back drawer. If he sewed that on my clothes, of course people would be able to tell from where I had bought the said clothes.

[But, is it okay if it's me? What if I'm not the kind of warrior you expect me to be? If I do something terrible in the future, won't that also affect the reputation of your store?]

For example, caught in conflict with the holy knights, being involved in the fight between the kingdom army and the Tenryu (TL Note: Heavenly Dragon), and more bad things started to pop out in my mind.

Jade simply showed an amused look and said.

[Hahaha, why are you anxious about that? Warriors are just that kind of fellow. Those kinds of things are fine. Life for the moment, think about the repercussion later. Arrogant and rough. That's how the warriors are. It's somewhat similar to having business with someone who's about to die]

[It's similar?]

To that, he said while scratching the bridge of his nose,

[Ee, I just want to be famous. First in Babylon. Then, the whole kingdom. That's impossible to achieve by merely crafting the best equipment. I need a warrior who is also aiming for the same height to don them in battle….that's what I want.]

[……I understand. There is really no reason for me to refuse after all. From now on, let's work together.]

[Yeah, likewise. Please drop the formality, We're partners now.]

[Right. In that case, I'll do just that.]

Jade shook my hand. With that, the exclusive contract was established.

So from now on, I'll be wearing armor crafted by Jade. I couldn't use any other weapon but Greed. So it's only armor.

First of all, we'll be adjusting the displayed black shirt according to my size. After a while, Jade reappeared from the back room with the clothes in hand.

[I've decided to do a little extra work on it. What do you think?]

[This….looks good.]

Linings of red fabric had been sewn over the black shirt.

[You can only see the red linings when the shirt is folded. It's the hidden accent. Please try wearing it immediately.]

[Eh, then]

Amazing….he's already familiar with my body size in such a short time. It fits fortably. Very easy to move while wearing it. This person….he's the real deal. Even if he didn't meet me now, he'd surely be able to bee a famous artisan in the future.

While I was quite overwhelmed by the difference in quality to what I could buy on the kingdom,

[How does it feel?]

[Exceeds my expectations. It's as if my strength increased just from wearing it.]

[I'll feel troubled if you praise me too much. How about changing the boots too?]

[Please]

In addition to the boots, he also sold me a belt and thimble, which totaled up to 80 gold, same as the original price of the black shirt.

I finished changing and checked my appearance on the body-tall mirror the shop had set up.

Looks good, if I have to say so myself. Although it's pure black at first glance, the red linings can be seen on occasion, giving it a good accent.

There will be no problem if I meet Roxy next time. While thinking that, Greed came to plain through 《Mind Reading》.

『The tailor truly makes the man』

[You…I dare you say that again!]

He said the same thing when I bought a new clothes back at the kingdom…..can you praise me even a little?

Jade seemed curious upon seeing such an interaction. Out of habit, I got into a conversation with Greed. To another's eyes, it looks like a weird guy who talks to his black sword one-sidedly.

That was a blunder on my part for doing that right after striking a great contract. While my forehead was sweating bullets,
