Sadly, Mira was long past the point of being able to say that. By now, they were no longer trying to fit inner pants for her, but had set up an entire fashion show around her, with employees and other women looking at her inside the fitting room.

Everything had started when an employee came to check on them, as they had been in the changing room for so long, and the moment she saw Mira she let out a loud 「Oh my, how beautiful」 which was her honest and raw reaction, and not just said out of flattery. But that attracted the attention of even more people.

Once they saw what had produced that reaction, they were just as mesmerized, seeing that extremely beautiful girl. It was no exaggeration to say she could pass for a model.

The inner pants Mira was trying out were becoming even more showy.

At some point the onlookers had also started picking out stuff for her to try, passing it over.

It was hard to say what psychological phenomenon had led to that, but it was like all those girls and women wanted to look like Mira, so they were using her as a model of the ideal magical girl they wanted to become.

(I wonder how much longer this will take…)

Mira was starting to reconsider how she had gotten into that position, being made to wear and take off clothes over and over and over, and eventually decided that she needed to do something too, instead of just standing still.

「Meow can do anything, from scouting to disarming traps. When it comes to being thorough, no one comes close to being like meow, Cait Sith. You’ll never go wrong with having me on your side, meow.」

Mira decided to summon Cait Sith to stand next to her, as a way to show off the usefulness of summoners. She had chosen Cait Sith for that, and there was a very specific reason why.

The Magical Knights brand always showcased a mascot character similar to Cait Sith in most catalogs or fashion shows, as having a small cute pet as mascot was a staple of magical girls. Or rather, the look was not complete without such a companion.

In a way, having a companion made her seem even closer to the ideal created by the Magical Knights brand, but that also pulled half of the attention away from Mira and towards Cait Sith, while also making summoners seem a bit more appealing.

Cait Sith went along with that as well, helping to give more attention to the abilities of a summoner. On top of that, it was a rather young audience, so Mira grinned feeling like she was having a stronger effect on them, and continued changing inner pants.

In the end, she spent around two hours modeling for them there. And while it had started with inner pants, at some point she realized that people were bringing her various other outfits from all over the store.

The story that a beautiful girl was conducting an impromptu fashion show at the store also spread like wildfire, attracting more people to the store.

But surprisingly enough, there were hardly any males in the audience that had gathered. Magic Girl style clothes were not seen as some form of cosplay in this world, but as actual fashion, so it was mostly females who were attracted to such an event.

「I feel like this deviated a lot from what I had in mind…」

Somehow her search for inner pants had turned into a really big event, and once everything was over, the store employees allowed Mira to take a break inside the staff room. There, she muttered that while glaring at the three smiling girls.

「I mean… All’s well that ends well, right?」

Milet said that while looking away.

「You’re just too charming so it was unavoidable, you know?」

Marietta also looked away as she replied.

「But 200,000 Rils in two hours is pretty good paycheck, essentially an hourly wage of 100,000 Rils.」 Nene mentioned that as her eyes panned over to a large paper bag next to Mira. Then she broke into a smile, mentioning how much of a privilege it had been to witness someone like Mira try on so many outfits, and that she would use that as a reference when picking out her future outfits.

「Unbelievable… But well, at least my efforts were worth something then.」 Mira could only sigh in resignation, seeing Nene’s innocent smile, and then reached for the bag.

Inside, she found leggings, skorts, tights, and anything imaginable that could be worn under her skirt. They had all been handpicked by the three girls and the store’s staff, as a reward for the fashion show Mira put on. And as Nene had pointed out, their combined value was 200,000 Rils.

Having Mira demonstrate the potential of the clothes had made sales skyrocket, breaking right past their previous record. So that reward was also an incentive for Mira to come back and do the same again.

(Well, I guess it’s fine.)

All things considered, she had obtained the items she wanted, and without having to spend a single Ril. On top of that, everything had been picked by experts, so she felt confident that she could wear any and it would match her outfit. So with those optimistic thoughts in mind, she decided not to worry about the smaller details.

Things had gotten a bit out of hand, but she had still managed to complete her goal, so she bid the three girls farewell and went out to the street. As she walked, there was a faint black strip poking out from under her skirt. That was one of the items she had just obtained, a pair of spats lined with beautiful lace.

That was the first set of inner pants Mira had decided to wear.

That allowed her to retain her outward appearance, while letting her move more freely. On top of that, it would look nice even if her skirt was flipped up. But more importantly, the three girls had mentioned that when they first got into that fashion style, their first set of inner pants had been like that as well, so it was like they were matching.

They had only known each other for a short time, but the girls seemed to rapidly get attached to Mira. Thinking back to all that, Mira looked down to a slip of paper.

The three girls had given it to her, wishing to see each other again one day. The slip had some text on it, which read ‘Magical Knights Official Show and Convention,’ so it seemed to be an advert for an event for lovers of the Magical Girl style.

All three were probably planning on going there, so they were trying to hint at Mira to go meet them there as well.

(I’m not really such a hardcore fan though…)

She really did not feel like going, but she also did not want to betray the expectations of her new friends, so she had conflicting emotions.

(Hmm, it was a short time, but I have to say I’ve grown quite fond of them too.)

It seemed like time had little impact on how quickly people formed bonds and friendships.

And Mira could not help but wonder, what they would say if they saw her again, or how they would look if she did not show up. Then she carefully stashed away the piece of paper, and continued walking ahead in a carefree manner, letting her skirt flutter around.

Meanwhile, over in Arkite, the maids of the castle were also hard at work at making inner pants for Mira. But they had not been able to finish them yet, for the same reason that delayed Mira for so long at the store.

There was simply too much variety, and regardless of how skilled they were at crafting clothing, the maids could not come to an agreement on what to make. They were getting so ahead of themselves that many were considering completely forgoing any underwear, and instead making something resembling a one piece swimsuit instead.

That internal conflict amongst the maids was constantly delaying production, so it would take a while longer before Mira could get inner pants from them.
