The person there was Ray, but I didn't think he was Ray.
　At the very least, if you only know Ray in Gilm, you wouldn't think he was the same person when you look at Ray today.

"What do you think? I tried my best to make it look good on you."

　A merchant woman who brought Ray's custom-made suit asks so.
　She was a woman in her forties, but it was evident from the fact that she was called this by the Duke of Kelevel.
　Ray was surprised but convinced that a custom-made suit had already been made, although he had just taken measurements a few days ago.
　If Ray had a thorough knowledge of custom-made clothes, he would have found out in this short time how out of the ordinary it would be to make enough clothes for the Duke of Kelebel to wear to a large gathering of nobles.
　Naturally, as quickly as possible using magic items... and never cutting corners, no one would make fun of Ray's suit right now.

"Yes, it's a little hard to move, but... these are the clothes, and it can't be helped."

　It's only because it's actually made to order.
　Ray usually wears a dragon robe, and underneath it is a very flexible outfit.
　Therefore, if you wear a suit like this, no matter how good the quality is, you will find it difficult to move.
　Ray doesn't tell me to fix my clothes in this situation, either, because he knows it.
　This is because I fully understand that it was hard to make this even if I wasn't familiar with custom-made things.
　Besides, it's a little difficult to move, and it doesn't really interfere with the movement.
　The merchant woman who brought the suit was relieved by Ray's appearance.
　If you were asked to fix it in this situation, it would certainly be out of control.

(I'm glad he's known as crimson. He doesn't waste his breath.)

　When I looked at Ray's face again, I realized that he had a well-organized face that I could describe as a woman's face.
　He's small, but there's no doubt that he has a kind of flower.
　If possible, I would like to spend more time preparing clothes suitable for Ray.

(though I don't have time to do that.)

　A woman's shop with a skilled craftsman naturally receives a variety of orders.
　Especially at this time of year, I'm so busy that I can't sleep with orders from the nobles who came for parties.
　However, the main job is not to make clothes completely customized from scratch like Ray, but to adjust the clothes already in place.
　We adjust the clothes we could still wear for months, half a year, or last year, but we can no longer wear them because of the change in body shape.
　That kind of work is pouring in one after another.
　Of course, being a nobleman does not mean that they are all such people.
　Anyway, now that there is a lot of work like that, I can't afford to think about clothes that are not very suitable for Ray...

"If you don't mind, may I hand it over to you?"
"Oh, no problem."

　Ray's simple words put a smile on his face, and the merchant simply said, "I'm sure I'll get another chance."
　And it was Miranda who appeared to replace the merchant woman.
　Normally Miranda could have been with the merchant, but she wasn't there because Ray asked her to go and see what was going on.

"How was Seto doing? Weren't you teasing him?"
"Yes, I was playing with Yero. He just looked a little lonely, didn't he?"
"...I see,"

　He showed his power to his enemies mercilessly... he was a clumsy, forward-footed, and skilled man, but he was basically friendly and spoiled.
　Especially because it's so strong against Ray, who loves it... it was pretty sad for Seto that Ray wouldn't come at the time he had promised to go.

"I've just finished handing over my clothes, and I'll go see Seth in a little while. I'll get some souvenirs in the kitchen."

　Seto, who was taken care of in the stable of the Duke of Kelebel, was naturally more delicious than the people around him.
　I didn't mind eating raw monster meat, but I guess they still think it's better to eat delicious food.
　The meals served at the set, however, are not Georgima, but are prepared by others... by Georgima's teachings, they are sufficiently competent to be called first‐class.
　Of course it wasn't everyone, but some people were warned about the temperature of the fire as Ray had been to see it before.

"I think you'd better do that. Just... I think you should take off your clothes before you do that. You might get your pretty clothes dirty."

　Ray nods back after being told.
　If you get this dress dirty, you'll have nothing to wear when you go to the party.
　No, given the wealth of the Duke and Duchess of Quevel, Ray had no intention of spoiling them so much, though there might be some possibility.
　What's more, it's entirely at Ray's disposal to get his clothes dirty.
　That's why Ray takes off his clothes and hands them over to Miranda.
　Normally, clothes you take off can be stored in a mistling, but Miranda forbids it.
　There are a lot of things to do about keeping clothes, too.
　If you say so, Ray can't help but nodding at the words.
　Basically, Ray, who was a high school student in Japan, has no knowledge of keeping suits or dress suits.
　He attended weddings and funerals for relatives, but as a student, Ray wore a high school uniform, blazer.
　That's why when Miranda tells me I have to do it that way, I'm convinced.
　That's why I changed my clothes into my usual dragon robe...

"Oh..."

　Miranda cries regretfully when she sees Ray like that.
　The blatant attitude puzzled Ray a little.

"Well... did something go wrong?"
"Oh, no. That's not the case. That dress looked so good on Ray. I think I could have shown it to the likes of Elena and Arra."

　Once told to show it, Ray feels subtly like he's become a show.
　Still, I didn't feel that bad because the targets were Elena and Arra.

"I don't think you need to go out of your way to show them. You can see them in person at the party."
"You don't understand the woman's heart. Mr. Arra must want to see Mr. Elena anyway. But I think it's too late because I've already taken it off."
"... I suppose. Well, make it a pleasure at the party. Honestly, I don't think there's much to worry about."

　Ray said so, but Miranda felt that Ray's suit would definitely be eye-catching, just like the merchants who brought the clothes.
　Naturally enough to make such a fuss... I understand that it's nothing to compare to Elena's dress. I understand that... but it was a fact that was worth seeing.
　That's enough to make you wonder if you've ever been dissatisfied with seeing Ray in his suit for the first time.
　However, Ray has already changed into his usual clothes.
　If that's the case, it's no use saying anything more now.
　Perhaps, indeed, Ray might ask me to wear a suit again, but as a maid, I can't say that.

"Well, I'll leave my clothes to Miranda. I'll go to Seto."
"Yes, leave it to me,"

　After a brief conversation, Ray left the room...

"Oh?"

　As soon as they leave the room, several people pass through the hallway a short distance away, one of whom notices Ray and cries out.
　Looking in the direction of the voice, Ray feels like he's met a bunch of people who aren't expressing themselves.
　for the man who spoke out... and those around him were clearly dressed in fine clothes.
　such a man at this time of year at the Duke of Kelevel
　It goes without saying what kind of person he is.
　Yes, for example, a nobleman who came to attend a New Year's party came to greet the Duke of Kelebel's Liberte that he had arrived in Annesis...

(Will he get entangled again?)That's what Ray thought, but... that prediction is off the mark.

"Oh, is your lord Ray crimson? I've heard from my son. He wiped out all the other adventurers and aristocrats in the mock war. I'm sorry that he has the skill of his lord, but I'll be glad if we can cooperate in the future."
"What?"

　It's no wonder that Ray made such a noise at the words of the nobility.
　I was wondering if they'd ever get involved again, but that's not the case, and on the contrary, they've treated me in such a friendly way.
　Still, Ray quickly recovered and spoke a little flusteredly.

"Oh, I hope we have a good relationship."

　As he says so, Ray turns his eyes to the man in front of him.
　They are there in their late twenties.
　I wouldn't say that I've never had friendly relations with aristocrats of that age, but there were still a few of them.
　In fact, it is more common for non-noble people like Blueit to build good relationships with Ray.
　Elena and Arra, though also aristocratic, would be classified as less aristocratic.
　In that sense, however, Miranda, who is supposed to be in charge of Ray, is also a noble family...

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
"Viscount, it's about time... until the next appointment..."
"All right. See you later."

　Saying so, the nobleman, called Viscount, leaves before Ray.
　Those men follow suit, but no one gives Ray a contemptuous glance.

"There's such a no doubt.

　That was Ray's honest impression.
　It's only natural, if you think about it.
　If all aristocrats in the aristocracy were like Gaiska, the aristocratic forces would soon have disappeared.
　Of course, there are many people who have high pride, but there must have been more people who could do things that matched their pride or could not look down on others pointlessly.
　Ray leaves the scene with a little surprise.
　It is only natural that we should go to the stables.
　I had Miranda deal with Seto, but I still thought Ray should go directly even if he was a little late.
　However, from what I heard about Seto from Miranda, I understood that he was lonely, so I was in a bit of a hurry.
　But I don't pretend to run in the Duke of Kelevel.
　for this is the residence of the Duke of Kelebel, who is leading the nobility.
　If someone is rushing around in such a place, they may be held in contempt for being rude, or they may assume that something serious has gone wrong.
　Of course, if there was something really wrong with him, he could have run, but... at least it would be better to avoid doing such a thing to please Sett.

(First of all, it's a food to curry favor with Seto. ... A dish made of Gamerion meat... ...or better food if possible? I've been feeling lonely lately.)

　With that in mind, Ray hurried to the stable where Sett was.
