Chapter 45: The villainess strikes back II (1)
The voices coming from behind us stopped. Then Shael immediately got up from her seat, left the dessert store, and started walking.
I started following Shael.
“Where are you going?”
“I don’t know.”
Shael’s face was still red with shame, and it was clear that she was trying to to hide it.
Of course, there was no way I would easily let the opportunity go!
Shael quickened her steps.
I also sped up and chased after her.
In the end, Shael entered a magic tool store.
In fact, as a famous mage family, the Azbel family also produced numerous magic tools, but they were not for amusement like the ones in this magic tool store.
Shael didn’t have much interest in these magic tools either, as she started to walk around while looking at the magic tools with curiosity.
Then, she reached out her hand towards a certain magic tool.
“I need to buy one of these.”
It was a sleep magic tool.
In fact, it was a magic tool with similar effects to sleeping pills. But… why the hell was she buying that?
Even it’s price was quite expensive.
“Why on earth would you want to buy that?”
“You don’t have to know.”
Come to think of it, Shael recently tried to put me to sleep. And, it wasn’t once or twice…
I just couldn’t figure out why.
Meanwhile, Shael started walking in search of another magic tool.
This time, she stopped in front of a magic tool that grabbed even my attention.
‘A gag?’
And, it was one that was designed to put on a person!
‘Why the hell is something like that here?’
I guess there were people in this world with some unique tastes in things. Anyways, I didn’t need to bother myself with these things.
But I had no choice but to bother myself with that thing.
Why? Because Shael reached her hand towards the gag.
“Why?”
Shael didn’t answer my words. Rather, she put the gag in her basket, and then reached out for the magic tools beside it.
They were other magic tools on display next to the gag. Of course, I didn’t have to be a genius to guess that they wouldn’t be ordinary either.
And that guess was perfectly correct.
As I stared at Shael with shock, she put a rope that could be used for suspicious purposes and a pair of handcuffs that prevented one from using their mana in her basket.
Now the basket contained the following “unique” items— a sleep magic tool, a rope, and a pair of handcuffs.
‘Why are they selling things that look like they could be used in suspicious purposes at this store?’
“…”
As I maintained my silence, Shael headed to the counter.
When the cashier saw the items in the basket, he kindly reminded,
“Ah, these items are not supposed to be used for strange purposes. May I ask why you want to buy them?”
Shael pointed at me and opened her mouth without thinking, “I want to use them on this person.”
“Ah! You were a pair of fresh lovers!”
‘She’s going to use it on me?’
Did I hear it wrong? No, that’s probably not the case.
And, the transaction was over before I could say anything.
What the hell! They sold these things after just asking about the purpose?
The world of this romance fantasy novel was indeed very illogical.
“What the hell are those things?”
Still, Shael didn’t answer, and kept walking.
Next, Shael went into an accessory shop, and I had no choice but to follow Shael inside.
“What are you buying?”
“Anything.”
I walked through the store with Shael.
The store had many expensive things ranging from necklaces to precious rings. It all looked gorgeous and noble.
It was then that a pair of rings caught my eye. They were rings with blue jewels that were shining with a blue light.
It was a pair of very beautiful rings. Even Shael, who wasn’t usually interested in jewelry, became interested once she saw them.
“It looks like a pair of couple rings.”
“That’s right.”
It was unusual for Shael to show interest in something other than dessert. So, it was only natural that I would want to buy it. But…
[5 million gold.]
But, why is it so expensive?
I swallowed my saliva. I didn’t expect it to be this expensive, even if it was studded with jewels.
In fact, it was more expensive than all my possessions!
Yes, I was from a ducal family, but that didn’t mean that I was rich. I received only a few gold coins every month as allowance, and of course, that was not nearly enough for this.
Actually, the Baslett family could be considered as quite poor even though it was a ducal family.
As I was lost for words, Shael picked up the pair of rings. Then she took it to the counter.
‘Is she going to buy both of them for herself?’
Fortunately, that wasn’t the case, as she handed me one of the rings.
“Take it.”
Even as I thanked Shael, I wondered, ‘Why is the villainess giving me such an expensive gift?’
