Chapter 133: Wearing Kagura Clothes Stylishly?

「……I became sober right away」

「……yeah, it’s frustrating since I can unexpectedly get addicted as I continue to eat it」

With a complex expression on their faces, Irvine and Mort said behind us.

There are tsukudani hanging on their waist, given by the old man of the Tsukudani’s shop as though it were farewell gifts. It was interesting looking at those two screaming because of the inago that I hadn’t seen in a long time.

Naturally, it goes without saying that the contents are only inago.

We told them to send the other tsukudani that we bought to the ryokan so that we don’t carry any luggage with us.

「Serves you right」

「Ahaha, with this you guys are even, right」

That’s ‘cause Aleutia and Ilya were made to eat the octopus on the ship, huh. It looks like even the gentle Ilya has no particular intention to stand up for them.

「It’s alright if you’re used to it, y’know?」

「No, we’re fine.」

Perhaps Roomba is especially fine with it, so he recommended the inago tsukudani to Ilya - which he is eating as a snack.

I also tried to eat one just now, but as expected, I’m still not used to it yet.

Certainly, that slightly tough texture is a fresh experience for me, but I hesitated when I looked at him.

It was pure black, soaked with soy sauce and even though I know that I shouldn’t look closely when I am trying to eat it, I wonder why can I see it clearly………

「Ah, it’s a clothes shop」

While I was thinking about something like that as I walked, Ilya pointed to a building ahead of us.

There is a two-story building in that place, a signboard hangs at the front with 『Clothes Shop Fuji 』written on it.

「That looks good. Let’s go and see some Kagura’s clothes」

Aleutia and Ilya run ahead to the front of the clothes shop while raising their voices in joy.

When I looked at their figures, I realized the fact that girls like clothes no matter what world it is. Seeing beautiful women looking like they’re having such a good time is really a feast for one’s eyes.

It’s as if the scene from the pillow fight yesterday was being washed away………not good. It can’t be forgotten that easily. Especially the scene where Gunther fell on his back, that was………

「What’s wrong? Alfried-sama?」

「……it’s nothing」

I half-run up to the clothes shop to keep up with everyone, despite the fact that Irvine is worried about me.

The interior of the shop is beautifully decorated, with brightly colored Kagura clothes and cloth being displayed inside. Even if you walked outside of the shop and saw that you would involuntarily stop. Though it’s not an extreme assertion or anything, it felt like the gentle beauty, the neat, and clean feeling are seeping out from the Kagura clothes.

Toward this kind of shop that has such an atmosphere of tranquility and sense of being long-established, it feels like it will be a bit particular to enter but because Aleutia and Ilya have already entered the shop the men were also able to enter without any concern.

The fragrant-like smell of tatami mats wafted in the air when I enter the clothes shop.

I feel a little nervous when I enter, but I manage to calm down after breathing slowly. The smell is similar to the smell at the ryokan’s room, it’s not something that will make you nervous.

「Somehow it feels high-class, isn’t it」

「That’s right. I feel out of place」

Perhaps they have never been in a shop with this kind of atmosphere before, Irvine and Mort appear to be a little uncomfortable. They don’t look like the same people who are making a racket, doing a pillow fight, or drinking sake at a high-class ryokan yesterday.

「We can just think of it like being at the ryokan, right」

「「Indeed」」

When I exasperatedly said that, Irvine and Mort quickly relaxed. Although I said that, you can’t have a feast or a pillow fight here, alright?

Ilya and Aleutia are happily looking at the Kagura’s clothes inside already, as they listen to the employees' sales talk.

「Welcome. Are you looking for Kagura’s clothes, dear customers? 」

At the timing when we were thinking ‘Should we also look for some suitable Kagura’s clothes’, a woman called out to us.

It’s a woman dressed in light cherry blossom-like colored clothes.

I wonder why do the employees of a shop like to interact with customers at such timing when the customers are about to act, it’s strange. Oh well, I’m not bothered by it this time, so it’s fine.

「Yes, we would like to look for Kagura clothes for men.」

「I understand. Well then, we shall go to the back, if you will」

When I answered, the woman bowed with a graceful movement and encourage us to go to the back. Apparently, the products near the entrance of the shop are mostly Kagura’s clothes for women.

As we followed the employee who guided us to the back, we arrived at a room that had the same appearance as the one from before.

There are Kagura clothes for men that have relatively calming colors displayed in the room, rather than the brightly colored Kagura clothes like the clothes at the front.

As we enter the room, we look at the Kagura’s clothes being displayed on the tatami mats in accordance with our taste.

If you look closely, there are also gaudy, bright-colored clothes for men, and some with elaborate golden embroidery on them.

You can clearly see that they put attention down to the details of the embroidery and the lines on the sleeve and the area around the collar.

「Ohー! This is the clothes that look easy to move in that I saw before!」

As I was looking at the Kagura clothes in the shop, Roomba picked up clothes that looked similar to a Jinbei.

「That is a jinbei. It is something that has become popular in Kagura as casual clothes recently.」

「I see, so it’s called jinbei, huh. This looks comfortable and cool to wear.」

「It’s like wearing casual clothes, isn’t it」

The employee-san answered Roomba while smiling wryly.

That is the criteria for men to choose their clothes. We’ll gladly wear it as long as it’s practical.

Even Sylvio-niisan and Nord-tousan, should also wear more rough clothes.

This is by no means because of my inferiority complex and jealousy for them who dressed so properly, alright? This is my kind consideration for them since you should dress comfortably in the mansion, you know.

「You may try the clothes if you like, would you like to try?」

「Ou, please do!」

「I also want to try some jinbei for children.」

「Certainly.」

Such being the case, Roomba and I change our clothes into jinbei.

「……dear customer, it’s wonderful. Even though customer is still young, the jinbei truly suits your figure. ……how should I put it, you have such a presence that wouldn’t have thought of you as a child.」

The woman who helped me wear the jinbei said such things as she looked surprised.

The one reflected in the mirror is me, wearing a somber, deep blue jinbei.

「……thank you」

………I wonder why is it. Even though I should have been praised, I’m not feeling happy at all.

A normal, young child would look cute if they were to wear jinbei, but that is not the case with me. With brown hair, sleepy-looking eyes, and perhaps it’s because of the fatigue from my previous life oozed out from my body that I look like an adult in the way I dress.

Though I’m not sure about the fact that a seven years old kid would even look good wearing jinbei………

While somehow having a complicated feeling inside, I returned to the tatami mats space, but I found that there was no one there.

Irvine and Mort - who were still here just now - are probably also trying on some Kagura’s clothes.

I thought, and when I looked at the clothes to kill some time while waiting, Roomba's voice could be heard coming from the back of the room.

「Ohー! Al also wear jinbei, huhー?」

「Un, Roomba too――」

When I look back, I stop talking midway when I was about to ask if Roomba wore the jinbei properly or not.

No matter how you look at him, Roomba - who came out from the back of the room - looks like a boss who is in charge of the backstreet.

Lion-like wild hair, chiseled frightening look, and an eyepatch on his right eye.

With more than 180 centimeters tall and swelling muscles, Roomba is wearing a black and gray jinbei, giving a different meaning of the word ‘dressing stylishly’ from the usual style.

I thought that Roomba would look good if he were to wear something like jinbei, but this is more than I expected it to be.

「……Romba, no matter how I see it, I can only see you as someone who does some shady job.」

The employee who helped Roomba change his clothes nodded as if agreeing to what I said.

「Really? Well, it’s fine if it suits me, right? 」

「I guess」

In reality, Roomba will probably be fine no matter who is the person picking a fight with him. Though the people who do shady jobs might get terribly frightened if they see Roomba.

It’s possible that there will be a misunderstanding like someone who came from another country trying to meddle in the backstreet.

Just when I was thinking about something like that while looking at Roomba, this time Roomba is staring at my appearance in jinbei,

「……even so, that jinbei looks really good on Al, doesn't it? I mean, when a kid wears jinbei it would be more……hmm, adorable, right? You look very different from Kagura’s children in the city」

「Customer have this certain atmosphere, like a man who enjoyed his time as he leads a quiet life after retirement, you see」

Even the employee said that kind of remark.

「Oh well, it’s fine if I look good in it, right?」

I say the same thing as Roomba while having an inexpressible expression on my face.

「That’s right! It’s fine as long it looks good on you!」

Given the choice, I wanted to be a guy who dresses properly and looks good in his clothes just like Sylvio-niisan.

Those close-fitting kimono doesn’t suit me, you know? I tried to casually check it before, but it surprisingly didn’t suit me at all.

On the contrary, I felt that the kind consideration from the smiling employee who has a vague expression greatly perturbs me.

「How is it? This makes me look good, doesn’t it? It makes me have a refined atmosphere around me, don’t you think?」

「Don’t be stupid, it still looks better on me. But well, if you talking about which one of us look like a thug, then I can give way to you.」

「What’d you say! Then let’s have Roomba-san and Alfried-sama judge it!」

「Fine by me」

The argument between Irvine and Mort can be heard coming from the back. It seems like it’s a dispute over which one of them looks good in their attire.

Though, after seeing Roomba both of their impressions are going to pale in comparison.

「「Roomba-san, Alfried-sama! Which of us looks good in our current attire!?」」

「Oh?」

Roomba turned around to look at those two - who eagerly came out from the back.

「「Hiiiiiiiiiiii!?」」

With just his impressiveness alone, Roomba made Irvine and Mort scream pathetically.

「Wha, what the. So it’s Roomba-san. I thought that it was someone who did some shady business somewhere.」

「Too powerful……」

I understand that feeling. Even I will avoid him if I bump into him on the streets.

「By the way, between me and Mort, which one of us do you think looks more stylish wearing Kagura clothes?」

「Of course it’s me, right? Right, Roomba-san?」

「Nah, it’s me, isn’t it? Right, Alfried-sama?」

Mort and Irvine asked while taking some poses to make them look better even if a little.

With his black stubble on his face, Irvine is not wearing jinbei like the one we wore, he is wearing a subdued purple kimono.

Choosing a purple kimono all of a sudden, this guy has quite the refined taste. Coupled with his old-looking face, it match-ed with the purple-colored Kagura clothes but if it’s about whether he looks stylish or not then I feel that it’s doubtful.

On the other hand, Mort - perhaps it’s in consideration of his blond hair - wore a relatively bright blue kimono. It can be said that this one is different from Irvine, as he looks normal wearing Kagura clothes, however, the flashy atmosphere emanating from him has somehow been spoiled.

「「…………………」」

Roomba and I stare at those two.

Rather than the clothes suit them, or they look stylish those two………

「「No matter how I see it you guys can only be seen as some thugs」」

「「Nnaaaaa!?」」
