By the time Ella slowly walked to the city gate, the previous group of adventurers had disappeared.

"When passing through the city gates, please state your name, race, and rank, and do not lie."

The guard at the city gate was stunned for a moment when he saw Ella's appearance, and then spoke very politely.

[Perhaps he also sees me as a noble lady.]

Ella secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She had been afraid that she would be suspected because of her outfit.

『Change level to 11』

"My name is Elelaya, I'm human, and I'm level 11."

After saying that, he walked through the city gate and sensed a fluctuation of magical power. It seemed that the city gate had a barrier set up to check level and race.

"You're so young and already at level 11!"

"She is indeed the eldest daughter of a noble family!"

"I think she's a princess from some country."

"Nonsense, which country would allow its princess to go on adventures to increase her rank?"

There was a noisy sound behind me. It seemed that I had set the level too high.

While waiting in line, I had secretly used the "Advanced Identification Technique" to check the levels of the people around me. Except for the adventurer who had spoken to me before, who was level 9, the rest were only level 3-7.

To accommodate the high level setting she had mentioned earlier, she had set it to 11, but now it seemed too high. Thinking about how they would feel if they knew they could actually be level 999, Ella couldn't help but feel a little proud inwardly.

The soldier at the city gate looked at a certain place at the gate as if to confirm. After finding nothing unusual, he continued to ask the next person in the team. However, judging from the tone of his voice, he was not as polite as before to himself.

Ella put her hands behind her back and walked into the city lightly.

[This way, she's totally like a little girl.]

Thinking of this, Ella quickly put down her hand, returned to normal posture, and continued walking forward.

Chapter 7 Undercurrents and Women's Clothing

*South Gate of Ryan Town, Kingdom of Barris

"Is this the town in the other world? It looks amazing..."

Ella walked on the street and looked at the customs of the other world.

The whole city gives people the feeling of a medieval Western stone city.

Maybe because it was afternoon, there were only a few people walking on the two-meter-wide stone-paved road. The people on the street were dressed in very different styles. Since it was summer, most people only wore linen shorts and shirts.

The reason why the clothing is so different is that there are people who wear clothes that look like a hole was opened in a piece of cloth and the head was put through, and it is considered a piece of clothing.

At the same time, almost half of the people have patches of varying sizes on their clothes.

[These people all look a little haggard... I don't really want to see that.]

Ella turned her attention to the buildings on the street.

Looking around, almost all of the buildings were two-story stone buildings, with a narrow alleyway between every few stone houses, just wide enough for one person to pass through. In addition to the two-story stone buildings that looked like ordinary people's residences, there were also some single-story buildings that looked like they were made of wood and were likely commercial buildings.

Looking further away, you can see a four-story brick building standing abruptly.

"That should be where the city lord lives."

After observing the customs of the other world, Ella withdrew her gaze and found that everyone passing by on the street was looking at her.

"Anyway, let's go change our clothes first."

『Topographic Search · Clothing Store』

Immediately, two green spots appeared on the map in front of him.

After Ella summoned the map, she glanced around and saw that everyone was looking at her, and no one was looking at the map in front of them.

"The map isn't visible to others... That's different from the game, isn't it?"

I decided to go to the clothing store in the center of the town closest to me first.

-----------------------------------------------

In the dimly lit room, a middle-aged man with sunken eye sockets, a hooked nose, and thin lips was listening to his subordinate's report.

"Sir, what are you going to do?"

The man turned around and thought for a moment before slowly answering

"We need to investigate on our own before the investigation team from the capital arrives. We'll go to the Adventurer's Guild and submit a request. We'll set off with the guards on the fourth day."

"Yes."

The man who looked like one of his subordinates answered but remained kneeling on the ground without leaving the room.

The man noticed that his subordinate seemed to have something else to say.

"Hmm? Anything else?"

"Sir, the barrier inspection at the city gate revealed a visit from a level 11 swordsman. Could we invite her to depart with us in four days?"

The man raised his head, as if he was interested.

"Oh? Why would an 11th-level swordsman come to Lion Town? Even if he's hunting monsters, he should be stationed in the western defense city."

"According to the guards on duty, there's a very beautiful swordsman who looks like the daughter of a noble family. She said she wants to travel the continent."

After listening to his subordinate's report, the man frowned slightly, stroked the ring on his finger, and after pondering for a while, as if he had made up his mind, he said

"The daughter of a great noble?... How about this? Send someone to secretly monitor her, and I'll visit her in person tonight."

"Yes."

The subordinate stood up, bowed, and slowly left the room.

After the man confirmed that his men had left the room, he sighed softly.

"A swordsman of unknown origin..."

The already dim magic lamp seemed to become even dimmer as the man pondered.

-----------------------------------------------

In front of him was a wooden building, with a sign in front of the door neatly engraved with the words from his original world:

Cocoro

Looking at the words above her head, Ella spoke her thoughts out loud.

"Not only do we share the same language, but even the writing is the same."

For some reason, Ella had the urge to cover her head with her hands. She shook her head and walked into the clothing store.

"Hello, is there anything you would like to receive?"

As soon as I entered the door, a woman who was dressed very neatly and looked like a waitress came towards me.

"I want to buy some clothes, all kinds of clothes."

Ella explained the purpose of her trip.

The waitress, who looked to be in her thirties, looked at Ella and smiled bitterly when she noticed the swordsman's dress.

"Judging from your attire, you must be the daughter of some noble family. I'm afraid we don't have any clothes that suit your taste. I'm very sorry."

"It's okay. I'm just buying some other necessary clothes for my upcoming trip."

The clerk looked at Ella with a strange look and replied

"Okay, so would you like it custom-made or ready-made?"

"Let's take a look at the ready-made clothes first."

"Okay, this way, please."

After saying that, the waiter led Ella to the other side, a room full of women's ready-made clothes.

[Wow… I really want to go out.]

Ella discovered traces of women's underwear among the various clothes placed in the room and subconsciously turned her head away.

"You can choose any clothes from the room and try them on."

The female clerk turned around and said to Ella.

Originally, trying on clothes was not allowed in this store, because if all kinds of people asked to try on clothes, the clothes would inevitably get dirty. In this underdeveloped material environment, the cost of a piece of ready-made clothing was enough to cover the food expenses for a family of three for several days, especially since this store was the best clothing store in town.

But the waitress saw Ella's clothes and appearance, and she knew she was the daughter of a wealthy family. Even if she tried on some clothes, it wouldn't be a big deal. It might even bring in a lot of profit for the store.

"Okay, I'll pick one."

After saying that, Ella began to search through the pile of women's clothing, looking for something she liked. The female clerk just smiled and watched without saying anything.

[Swordsman's uniform, robe, long skirt, cape, smock, hat, dress, casual clothes, huh? Is there something strange mixed in? Hey, is it really okay to buy something like a skirt by yourself?]

A strong wind blew in my heart.

[Hmm... I'm a girl now, so it's okay if I buy it.]

[Hey, hey, you're a man at heart. Shouldn't you have a sense of manliness?]

"But even if I buy it now, no one will notice me. Wouldn't it be weird if I don't buy it?"

[How lame! She actually bought a skirt or something.]

[If I don’t buy it now, what if I need it in the future? ]

【…】

In the end, the female soul in the brain won.

There are a few more skirts in the selection of clothes...

Chapter 8: Shame Play and the Consequences of Acting Cute

*Kokoro Clothing Store in Lion Town, Barris Kingdom

20 minute has passed...

Under the gaze of astonished people, Ella pointed at the pile of clothes in front of her.

"Okay, that's all I'll take."

The female clerk asked Ella with a tone of disbelief

"Are you sure you want to buy all of these?"

"Yes, I want them all."

Ella said confidently with a satisfied look in her eyes.

"No...don't you need to try them on? I think...some of the clothes might not fit well."

The female clerk confirmed with Ella again.

"Hmm—that's right. Where can I try it on?"

The female clerk looked at Ella with the same strange look as at the beginning.

"Where is it? Just try it on right here."

【ah! ! ! 】

Ella wailed inwardly. The culture of this other world was so crude. A seemingly legitimate clothing store actually required customers to change clothes right in front of others...

"Don't you have a fitting room or something like that?"

"Fitting room? What's that?"

Ella felt as if she saw several question marks on the female clerk's head.

【What kind of shameful play is this! 】

A strong wind blew in my heart again.
