Reincarnated in the game world ~ A gamer's beginning to [Dungeon job hunting recommendation]

"Hn, how is it?"

"Sure enough, it's as if it's made for Karua! It looks good on you!"

"I also think it looks perfect on you. And its performance also looks great. Well, it's selected by Zephyr after all so it's to be expected I guess. But doesn't the size look a bit bigger?"

"You're right. Let's ask Marie-senpai's guild to fix it."

The sound of girls merrily chattering could be heard from behind the door.

Needless to say, it was about trying out the ‹Fairy Mercenary Armour Set›, and they must have been sizing it as Karua probably changed into it.

Lana praised the design and performance, Rika Seemingly worried about its size and providing the solution to it is Sierra.

Well, Karua is quite short. Though not as much as Hannah, she is petite to the extent her legs dangle in the air when Lana scoops Karua into a hug. I guess equipment size was more leaning towards the average girl's body.

On this note, we are currently in a room in the venue of the auction, checking the items we have bid for while I am standing outside of that said room.

When we were checking items, the topic shifted to how about we have Karua try it? And that's how I was kicked out of the room and that is the current situation.

"You can enter now, Zephyr~"

—-Ah, Lana has finally called out to me.

I quickly opened the door and entered inside. As I went inside, Karua immediately attracted my attention.

"Hn. How?"

"Great. You look really cool!"

"Hn-mm. I'm glad."

A broad smile appeared on Karua's face in satisfaction when I gave my impression as she twirls on the spot.

Karua was sporting a bit of wild appearance after equipping complete ‹Fairy Mercenary Armour Set›, though it didn't diminish the adorable appearance which one would expect from female equipment.

Just the leather jacket seems a bit long, the rest of the clothing were all small size so they tightly snuggled against Karua's body, showing off her healthy skin color, navel and thighs. To sum it up, they looks great on petite Karua.

"Zephyr. Can I really use it?"

"Of course. Though you gotta pay the rental fee."

Equipments are expensive, furthermore they are a part of the guild's support as well as its property, so it was not something to be given away for free.

So, in case of lending the equipment, the guild would cut off a certain percentage from the salary we pay to the respective members. I have already discussed it with Celestine and Sierra as well.

Of course, they can purchase those equipment as well if they fancy them.

In that case, they would just have to pay for whatever the amount is left after deducting the rental fee amount they have paid so far for that equipment from the total price of it.

Though I guess that would not always be the case since they would be constantly improving themselves and challenging new dungeons, so it would depend on members themselves if they want to buy or just rent.

"Hn. Thank you. I will use them with care."

It seems like she has really taken a liking to these equipment huh. Let's have Celestine prepare the procedure to loan the equipment.

"Speaking of, how much we have used now in today's auction, Sierra?"

"You know......Alright, ‹Fairy Mercenary Armour Set› for 21 million Mir, ‹Glowing Sea Shell Armour Set› for 28.3 million Mir and the last one, ‹Soaring Sakura Magic Tree Armour Set› for 23 million Mir, making a total of 72.3 million Mir."

I see, I see.

Also, ‹100% Superior Apple Juice› isn't included as well because we are not the one paying expense for that. Obviously.

Nevertheless, where did Celestine get the money for purchasing it? I have a feeling I shouldn't touch that topic.

Anyway, speaking of other equipment sets, the first one, ‹Glowing Sea Shell Armour Set› is armor type equipment for tanks.

It was also the most expensive one due to its robust defense ability. More like, tank equipment is generally that expensive, and since armor is the core part of a tank, it's impossible to cut corners here.

There is only Sierra and Rika or sub-tank Lulu and I who can use the tank equipment...... though I have yet to decide who will use it.

I mean, the other three have their princess job equipment while I have mine firmament series, so there is currently no need to upgrade our equipment. Now one would wonder why I even purchased it then, mostly because I quite like the performance of this set. I intend to keep it for when we have a dedicated tank join us.

Moving on to the next one, ‹Soaring Sakura Magic Tree Armour Set› is the set oriented for rearguard magic attackers. It would be suitable for Lana, Celia, Mert, Misato and also Rina. Though the first priority is Misato, she is the one with lowest performance equipment among other guild members. Next would be Mert.

I will talk with them later.

"We also have sold ‹Furious Bamboo Splitting Battle Axe› for 21.8 million Mir. So adding it, minus 10% auction fee, the expense total 52.58 million Mir."

Sierra used some calculator-like function on her ‹Smartphone› and quickly calculated the expense.

So about 50 million huh, and converting it into QP, it would be 50,000 QP.

My financial sense has gone so haywire I don't know if I should say it is expensive or cheap. That being said, we still aren't D-rank, so we mustn't splurge much at this point.

I think this should settle the thing for now.

"That much huh. Got it, and thanks, Sierra."

"It's fine. You can always ask me about this kind of thing."

I patted my chest in relief that we didn't spend more QP than planned and decided to visit Marie-senpai's guild then. Such was our plan, but......

A slightly strange thing happened. Shizu, Pamela and Ester suddenly appeared when we were on our way and took away Lana and Celestine with themselves.

"Hey, Shizu!? What are you doing, I'm going to help adjust Karua's equipment!?"

"The plan has to be canceled unfortunately. Celestine, you also came with us. There is something we need to talk about."

"......Understood. Then, Zephyr-sama, I will be leaving for a moment."

"Ahh, okay. Be careful?"

"Huh!? hey, Zephyr——!?"

And that's how they were taken away.

I don't know what is happening, but with this, only four of us are left behind now.

Anyway, we reached the ‹Emblem Seal Sticker› guild as planned and met Marie-senpai who is always there to take care of shop matters.

"And that's the gist. I would like some adjustment to ‹Fairy Mercenary Armour Set› to make it more suitable in size for Karua."

"Yes-Yes. But still, I am happy you purchased one of my proudest works. I see Onii-san has eyes for such things eh."

"Ohh, did you make it, Marie-senpai?"

"That's right. My job is ‹Magic Dress Maker›. I quite excelled at making light armours. Didn't I say it?"

"Eh, no, I just came to know it now."

"It's also my first time hearing about it."

It seems like not just me, but even Sierra didn't know.

So Marie-senpai's unexplained job is ‹Magic Dress Maker›! It's even a high-ranking production job! Wait, so she was actually a super elite!?

‹Magic Dress Maker› is a high ranking job from the ‹Cloth Maker› category, a production job mainly specialized in making light armours.This job can utilize various production skills and since the finished product used to have a cosplay aesthetic, it was a popular job in the game.

Ah, now that I think about it, she did seem to always ask for leather material, didn't she? I guess I will bring in a large amount of them next time to show my gratitude for her care all the time.

"Hnn? Is it just me or does it kinda feel a bit...... chilly? Hmm, ah, so you see, due to a certain guild placing a massive order for quests, we've had a huge influx of materials over here as well. I've been so inspired that my creativity just exploded."

Further surprising fact was that the maker of ‹Fairy Mercenary Armour Set› is none other than Marie-senpai.

The performance is quite good, and the price isn't that high. It's been a great purchase. Feeling grateful, I pat her head.

"Zephyr, I wonder what that means?"

"Ah, eek!"

"Don't eek me."

Crap. I ended up patting Marie-senpai's head as I always do, but I forgot that I am not alone today. I gingerly turned to take a look and there was Sierra, looking at me with her stern glare—— no, it was no longer stern, her eyes were practically shooting sparks.

That's right. I haven't done anything wrong! So please don't report me!

However Marie-senpai looked unbothered by all this as she just put a grin seemingly gloating at my situation and began adjusting ‹Fairy Mercenary Armour Set› on the spot.

She is even sending furtive glances here. She is completely enjoying it, isn't she?

"Don't tell me you are always this rude to Marie-senpai, Zephyr? You aren't, right?"

Her eyes are no longer just on the level of stern! Is it that problematic!?

"N, No, I don't. Now just happened to be that you know, I was just overcome with emotion."

"So do you usually pet other people's head when you are overcome with emotion?"

Sierra further presses for an answer. Stop it, Please!

"N, No, it was Marie-senpai so it happens."

"So you want to say Marie-senpai is special?"

Arrrrrgh! What the hell should I do here! It doesn't seem like any of my answers will be enough to calm her down either!

Help me, Marie-senpai!

However, all Senior Marie did was cackle in laughter while enjoying this situation.
