Chapter 435 435 Specialists
Once breakfast was done, it was time for Wolfe to get to the little details that couldn’t be done by anyone else at the moment. The first thing to do would be to check on the upcoming weapons orders and make sure that they had enough.
The villages might have slowed down on their orders for ammunition, but it would pick up in the winter, and he wanted to be ready for the surge. Then, after that, he would check around with the various departments and see if there were any Arrays that they needed him to make while he was here.
He could just work his way in a circle around the complex and have it all done in a reasonable time. Assuming that he knew how to actually do what they wanted.
But plans and reality are very different things, and Wolfe didn’t even manage to make it away from the table before the first requests had come to him.
“Wolfe, perfect. I’m glad we found you in time. We positively need the new outfits that you made for Kira.” One of the Magi girls demanded.
“Oh, I should have seen this one coming. Alright, what sort of clothing have you brought me? Kira picked a Kimono, but I’m fairly sure that you all have different fashion sense.” He replied with a smile.
It might not have been on the urgent to-do list for him, but it was for them.
“Well, we didn’t know that it would work on other things, so we all brought Kimonos. They’re cute, though.” The Magi girl replied a bit sheepishly.
“Well then, that will be your fashion for the week until I get time to make you some more clothes. Or you can run off and grab something else, and I can work out how to get it properly enchanted.” Wolfe told her with a wink.
The girls considered it for a few moments, then shook their heads. “I think it’s better that we match. Most of the new arrivals from the villages can’t tell us from the Witches, so there is a lot of confusion when we can’t cast spells for them.
But if we all wear the same fashion that nobody else does, they will know that we specialize in recharging charms and activating inscriptions. That will save a lot of headaches for us.”
Wolfe nodded and held out his hand for the nearest pile of cloth. It was significantly lighter than the one that Kira had handed him, but when he unfolded it to work, it was a full-length kimono, just in a very light cloth.
Not light enough to be transparent or indecent, but very close to it. If the light were shining on it from behind, it would certainly take the second layer to keep her modesty. But in the heat of the Fae Forest, that would make the overall outfit quite comfortable, which was likely why the Witches had made it this way.
It already had the basic repair and self-cleaning charms on it, but they wouldn’t get in the way of the spells that Wolfe was adding.
One after another, he added the layers to the Array on the clothing and then handed it back to its owner.
“I suspect that you won’t take the same route as Kira and change right this instant, but you should go try it on and make sure that it is working,” Wolfe informed her.
The young woman’s face blushed nearly as red as her hair, and she scurried off to the sleeping quarters to change while Wolfe moved on to the next outfit.
They were all identical, both in colour and material, which made the process of doing the others very simple. One after another, the five girls went to change and then assembled back in front of Wolfe in their new outfits, matched in gossamer black cloth with red flowers over a red base layer.
It didn’t escape anyone’s notice that they had chosen to nearly perfectly match the black and red suit that Wolfe wore nearly everywhere, and the witches working the kitchen were doing their best to hide their amusement at the scene.
Everyone knew about Wolfe’s harem. It wasn’t any sort of secret. But if you didn’t know who they were, it would certainly seem that these girls in their matching outfits would be the most likely contenders.
“Thank you so much. We will finally be able to keep up with everyone else in town.” The first girl to have her outfit finished cried, hugging Wolfe as soon as the last of the girls returned with a big smile on her face.
“Well, I’m glad I could help. Was there anything else that you needed right away? Because I should get to making all the Arrays that everyone dreamed up in the last week while they were adapting to the influx of new residents.” He replied.
“In that case, we will be off to make sure that everyone’s Arrays are filled with mana for the day. This is going to be great. No more waiting in line for the lift. We can just fly up.” She giggled, and then the group was gone, off to take care of their daily duties.
Wolfe was just getting ready to make his rounds when one of the Trolls from the border station came to visit him.
“Mister Wolfe, you have a visitor at the river, and I think that it is important that you come to talk to them in person. If you take my hand, I will move you directly there.” The small Fae informed him.
“Alright, if you say it’s important, it is. Let’s go.” Wolfe agreed.
The Troll pulled him to a nearby potted tree, and then suddenly, the pair of them were standing next to the airplanes at the shack on the northwest corner of the Fae Forest.
“That is an impressive trick. Thanks for the lift. It would have taken me far too long to get here on my own.” Wolfe congratulated the stumpy Fae, whose chest puffed out with pride, while his twin looked annoyed that he hadn’t been there to get praised as well.
