"Hehe, is this your first time here? Well then, let me, a true native of the North, show you around. You should be thrilled to have an A-rank adventurer as your guide!"

"Actually, we can explore on our own."

"That's true. We don't necessarily need a guide, since we have legs."

"I'm sorry, I was wrong. Please let me be that humble, unpaid guide..."

So after they put their luggage in the hotel room and came out again, Toor really did act as a guide for free and with great dedication.

"Hi, ladies and gentlemen, we are now in the central square of the Ruins City, which is also the most bustling commercial center in the city."

"Come, please follow me this way~"

"We're walking down a bustling commercial street now. Young man, you've been wearing that black trench coat for far too long. Girls are getting tired of seeing it like that."

And Miss Forty-Seven, Miss Florentis, could you perhaps change into more casual clothes for everyday wear? The boys might get tired of seeing you like that!

"If you don't have any spare clothes, this place next to me is Rockefeller, the most popular high-end fashion chain store in the North these days!"

Originating in the Lionheart Empire, it's a favorite among nobles, royalty, social elites, and young ladies; even they wear it, and it's said to be revolutionizing fashion worldwide!

When Domi looked at Toler again, she was startled.

This guy had changed into his everyday clothes at some point.

On top, she wore a simple black shirt with the chest open, but on the bottom, she wore floral beach shorts and flip-flops, paired with a pigeon headgear—it was just too ridiculous.

Is this really an outfit that a carbon-based life form could come up with?!

"So high-class?" Afu was a little hesitant to go in. "Then... what do they sell inside?"

The store's style is light luxury, neither overly flashy nor appearing impoverished, making it appealing to both the wealthy and the poor.

But Afu had never shopped at a clothing store of this caliber before; clearly, it was the legendary 'country bumpkin mentality' at play.

"Don't worry, of course we can't afford the expensive ones, but even the cheaper ones have a lot of fashionable and unique clothes to choose from, such as lipsticks, perfumes, bags, socks, shoes and hats for girls, which are also sold here."

"Come, come, Miss Florentis, let's go inside and have a look! A change of clothes will surely impress the young man!"

"Hey kid! Are you standing there dumbfounded? Hurry up and catch up!"

"Oh...it's here."

When Domi first heard the name 'Rockfia', it sounded strangely familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he realized, "Oh, it's the name I chose myself!"

Let's rewind to four years ago.

I remember that many taverns in Bloomfield were squeezed out by Hearthstone Tavern and lost their space to survive. So Domi had Morey buy these shops and then opened a clothing store using the clothes from his previous life.

It was only later that it developed into a luxury goods store.

He ultimately underestimated the power of those luxury goods and men's and women's clothing from his previous life, especially women's clothing.

Examples include well-designed preppy style outfits, various lightweight yet elegant women's clothing, and everyday looks that are both beautiful and sexy, and perfectly suitable for wearing on the street...

It received widespread acclaim upon its release, and people did not react with the resistance and disdain that Domi had imagined.

However, if it were a different clothing store, the situation might be quite different; it would be a blessing if they weren't shut down.

The main reason is that 'Rockfield' is backed by Dominion and Brofell.

At Domi's request, all the members of the Broadfield team tried on the latest outfits and made their debut at a banquet.

Because of people's tendency to follow the crowd, even the nobles eventually began to imitate them.

After they had gained considerable popularity among the nobility, Domi sent several hundred more to Shia, asking her, the princess, to help promote them.

With this two-pronged approach, Rockefeller's clothes quickly became popular among the upper classes of the empire, and even the common people noticed the change in clothing.

At this point, when Domi launched more affordable everyday clothing, it immediately won the hearts of ordinary people.

Chain stores are springing up one after another like mushrooms after rain.

In four years, it not only spread throughout the Lionheart Empire like Hearthstone Tavern, but also opened chain stores in the Northern Republic.

And now he's run into it again.

There's no time like the present, let's let this behind-the-scenes boss experience our services today!

Chapter 131, Section 130: Reasons for Giving Up Everything

Wearing a skirt in the North is obviously not a very wise thing to do, so this 'Rockfia' store located in the ruins city mainly sells fashionable down jackets and thick coats and trench coats, both for men and women.

The sales assistant selected a white wool coat with snow-white mink fur for Afu and a thick-lined jacket for Forty-Seven.

When the two of them came out of the changing room one after the other, Domi and Tori, who had been waiting anxiously outside, clapped and cheered.

Afu, who already had long blonde hair and was quite pretty, looked even more like a noblewoman after wearing this coat with a mink collar.

If it's a coat that reaches your calves, you can still wear a skirt on the bottom. Pairing it with warm nude stockings and brown ankle boots definitely makes you more charming!

"They say that gods are made of gold and people are made of clothes. When Afu puts on this outfit, her temperament is instantly elevated! I thought she was the wife of some nobleman."

The toddler was generous with his praise.

"Thank you for the compliment."

"Mr. Death Omen, what do you think?"

"It's very pretty! And it suits you very well."

"Thank you!"

"Hey, hey, hey, your attitude has changed!"

Then the number that came out was forty-seven.

She wore a black leather jacket on top and black matte trousers and high-top snow boots with crisscross straps on the bottom.

Forty-seven's temperament is naturally cool, and with her unique blackcurrant grape purple hair color tied in a single ponytail, plus this outfit, she can be summed up in one word—cool!

She has the dashing style of a female rider, but it's still best to wear a helmet and protective gear when riding at high speeds...

Forty-seven was a little shy after coming out, since she had never been in this kind of clothing before.

In fact, apart from the clothes in the style of Fomalhaut, she basically never wore any other clothes.

Domi noticed his embarrassment and smiled, saying, "You look great in it."

"Mmm." Forty-Seven's voice was barely audible, but it was clear she was very happy.

“Wow! Isn’t this better looking than that adventurer’s outfit?!” Toll chimed in.

"Do you two like it?"

"Of course!"

"Ah."

So Domi bought them all with a wave of his hand.

"Then it's your turn, young man~" the tortoise said with a wicked grin.

The two girls seemed to become inexplicably excited, as if picking out clothes for others was a very interesting thing.

Domi was gradually forced into a corner.

"Hey...you guys...don't come any closer!!"

After that, Domi was like a clothes hanger, constantly being dressed in new clothes, from suits and prince-themed outfits to beach suits and coats like the ones worn by toddlers.

After much deliberation, he finally chose a brown detective-style jacket, but without a newsboy cap, as he wasn't used to wearing hats.

After the four of them came out of the shop, they no longer looked like adventurers at all, but rather like tourists who had simply come for sightseeing.

"Hmm~ This creates a much better atmosphere." Toll expressed his satisfaction, then led everyone to continue upwards: "Please continue with me~ The big news is coming up next."

With anticipation, they made their way to a church built atop a hill.

The structure of this church is amazing.

Upon entering, the original lectern and the wall behind it were completely removed and replaced with an open-air environment for viewing and railings to prevent falls.

Sitting on a church pew in front of the railing, one can clearly see below, the ancient magical ruins that seem to have a glorious history, with gray-white columns and carved railings scattered on the ground.

From the existing outline, it can be seen that it must have been a huge gate in the past, but what it was used for is unknown.

Sitting here, the morning sun shines straight down on you.

Everything in sight is bathed in a golden glow, as if filtered, making you feel like you're in a fairyland.

The four people's faces were bathed in a golden light.

It felt like I was being healed.

"This is the best spot to overlook the ruins. Countless tourists come here every year. Isn't it beautiful?"

“That’s great…” Afu murmured.

Even Forty-Seven was stunned by what he saw.

"What do you think, young man?"

The light reflected off Domi's mask: "If only others could see this sight too."

I want to share this with my friends and family!

"If I have the time, I definitely can. Revisiting the place with a different group of people will surely be a different experience."

“Sometimes you say some very philosophical things, Tuo’er.”

"How rude of you..."

That evening, Domi and the others found a slightly remote hotel to stay in. It wasn't that they couldn't afford the skyrocketing hotel prices around the ruins, but rather that they simply couldn't get a room.

Some tough guys even arrive a month in advance, while those who arrive two days early are lucky to even have a hotel to stay in.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, they deliberately chose a hotel with a nice roof design and a view of the vast sky.

After taking a shower and having dinner, Domi, as usual, climbed onto the roof with a bottle of wine he had somehow acquired, and lay back on the tiles to look at the night sky in a different way.

The night sky here is very bright, probably because it's illuminated by the bustling town below that never sleeps, but there are fewer stars.

Occasionally, one or two stars adorn the night sky, like tiny, exquisite desserts in a high-end restaurant—rare in number, yet all the more precious and dazzling.
