Chapter 978 Clothes
"You two are here? Come over here and see what I am wearing."
After picking out an outfit, Karin found two men gathered together. She was wearing a long skirt with deep sapphire blue as the main color. The skirt was embroidered with delicate lace patterns and the edges were decorated with layers of ruffles.
She wore a tight waistcoat that was cut to perfectly show her figure and was inlaid with pearls and gemstones. On her head was a tall hat decorated with long feathers, the brim of which was slightly turned up, revealing her pretty face wearing a monocle.
"It's really nice. It's beautiful."
Yaeri clapped, and Otto nodded slightly, with a gentle smile on his face.
"It's really beautiful... but it seems a little inconvenient to move around, and this monocle can't cover the face..."
Karin just wanted to show her new clothes to her companions. After thinking it over, she decided to change into another set. As for this set, she could use it as daily wear.
"You two wait here, I'll go take a look."
After saying that, Kallen left in a hurry and picked through the pile of clothes, leaving Yaeri and Otto looking at each other helplessly.
"Then I'll go try on some clothes too, I'll be right out."
Yaeri also went to change clothes. Normally, she didn't pay much attention to it, but since she was out, she might as well add some new clothes to her wardrobe.
"Ah."
Otto watched Yaezakura walk into the fitting room, and a moment later, Yaezakura and the other two came running to find them.
"Hmm? Where's my brother?"
Yae Rin changed into a dark green lace dress, embellished with intricate patterns and pearls.
"Change, he should be out soon," Otto replied, pointing in the direction of the changing room.
"Then we'll come over later. Is Kallen changing clothes too?"
Yaesakura was still wearing her original clothes. Perhaps it was out of habit, she didn't like wearing tight clothes here. There were loose ones, but they didn't suit her aesthetic.
"She picked out a nice outfit, but Karen wanted to look at other things, so she went over there again." Otto gestured in another direction.
"Well... I hope the operation goes well tonight."
Yaezakura said this, but there was no sign of worry on her face.
"The way out has been prepared, so it doesn't matter whether we succeed or fail."
In the past few years, Otto's say in the family has become more and more powerful. If he can't even handle this kind of house-like operation, he might as well find a place to jump into the river.
Yaezakura nodded slightly, called Yae Rin and wanted to go to the left to take a look. Unlike her, Yae Rin liked the clothes here very much.
After walking a few steps, he remembered that there was a third person who had no sense of existence. He suddenly turned around to look in the direction of Yaeri's fitting room, and saw Yaeri, who only had time to change into a shirt under the dress, walking towards him with a frown on her face, carrying Theophile.
"Ying, help me keep an eye on her."
Yaeri didn't expect that a white-haired head would pop in while she was changing clothes. She was a little nervous at first, but after seeing that it was Theophile's face, she felt normal again.
As a guy who is not even a human, this guy has no sense of distance at all. However, no matter what, Yae Ri is not used to having someone watching her change clothes, so she can only ask her sisters to help watch her.
"Did she go and peek at you changing clothes again, brother?"
Yaezakura had no expression on her face.
"I can't cure her."
Yaeri shrugged, giving up on herself.
"Perhaps we should carry a black cloth with us and cover Sister Theophile's eyes whenever this happens."
Yae Rin was also dissatisfied with Theophile's self-willed behavior, and used her body to block Yae Rin and Theophile.
"Maybe you can try to be a little stricter. After all, it's not a good thing to spoil a 'pet' all the time." Otto hinted. Yae Li glanced at him and felt that something was wrong. Was the knowledge that Xu Kong Wan Zang passed on to this guy too comprehensive?
"I think that in order to teach Sister Theophile well, I should use the experience I gained in dealing with disobedient children."
Yae Rin didn't understand what Otto meant, nor did she expect how explosive Theophile's sister's identity was. "For example, every time she peeks at her brother changing clothes, she is punished for a day... No, she can't eat a meal?"
"..."
But people don’t need to eat.
Yaezaki thought so, but seeing Yaezaki Rin talking excitedly, he just agreed casually.
In the end, Theophil was pulled away by the two sisters, but before leaving, Yae Sakura glanced at the buttons on her brother's chest that were not completely fastened, and waited until her sister called her before she silently looked away.
"Li, Otto, how do you think I look like?"
Not long after the three of them left, Kallen came over wearing new clothes, this time a black ruffled skirt that was a bit short with a red bow on the back and a pair of black boots on her feet.
When being stared at by Otto and Yaeri, Kallen felt a chill under her butt. Only then did she realize that her skirt was a little too short.
Kallen's face was a little hot, and without waiting for the two to comment, she ran back in a hurry.
When no one came, Yaeri also changed into her new dress completely and looked herself up and down in front of the full-length mirror. Behind her was Otto, who was hugging his chest.
"not bad."
Yaeri commented that the dress fit him unexpectedly well, the fabric was comfortable, and the style was okay. At least he was quite satisfied with it.
"I'll talk to the clerk and have it packed for you."
"Oh, thanks."
This time it was Otto's turn to walk away. Kallen, who had changed into her third set of clothes, came over. She didn't see Otto, but only saw Yaeri, who had also changed into new clothes, and her eyes lit up.
"Li, you are so beautiful~"
"I think I'd be happier if you could use the word handsome."
Yaeri glanced up and down at Kallen's third outfit—a slim dress with purple as the main color, a purple iris pinned on the collar, purple stockings and gloves of the same color, and a black eye-covering mask obtained from the red-haired girl. Except for her particularly eye-catching white hair, there was nothing impeccable about her as a phantom thief.
"I suggest you dye your hair, maybe dye it blonde like Otto, so that if you are discovered you might be mistaken for Apokalis."
"No, I'm an upright Phantom Thief. I won't do anything like framing others. Besides, the Kaslana family can't just dye their hair!"
"You're already a phantom thief, how can you talk about being aboveboard?"
"I don't care. Just tell me if I am a righteous Kaslana warrior or not."
"Yes, yes... So you've already chosen? This is it?"
"Yes, I think this outfit is very good. It is convenient for movement and will not be easily recognized."
Karin put her hands on her hips and became more determined to succeed in the evening after putting on this outfit.
