With my right hand I point excitedly at this big building. It's big and beautiful and looks expensive. The glass is crystal clear and the entrance looks like it's only for rich people. It's not nearly as beautiful as my house or the castle, but it's nice.

On my left hand

"Diana. Please let me go. I don't think I belong here" [Neloufa].

"No" [Diana].

And with my left hand, I'm holding Neloufa's smooth, silky hand, preventing her from running away with all her might. She's weak, or maybe I'm the one who's too strong, so it feels like I'm holding a bunny trying to escape from a predator's claw.

Neloufa begins to use her eyes and begs me to let her go. She's in distress because she has to go into this building. Again, this is kind of funny, but I feel bad for her now, so

"Let's go together" [Kara]

"We're friends, right?" [Mara]

"True, as your friend, we are only here for you" [Diana].

"But... A commoner like me... Entering this expensive looking place... My money..." [Neloufa]

"If you're worried about money, it's okay. I'll cover all your expenses today" [Amleth].

"I... I can't!" [Neloufa]

"Then how about me? Having Your Highness treat you is quite an ordeal, but I'm sure it's okay if it's me" [Jean]

"That is..." [Neloufa]

"Big Sister is a generous person, I'm sure you know what she did right" [Liya]

"I... I understand. Thank you very much" [Neloufa].

Neloufa bowed her head to Jean, and Jean just patted Neloufa's head and said you're welcome, trying to comfort her. Even Kat and Linda go to Neloufa's side and try to calm her down. Aunt Amleth approaches Jean and tells her to send Neloufa's expenses to her bill, as she's the one requesting Neloufa's admission to the noble school, as Kara and Mara don't have many real friends. 

This building isn't pet friendly, so Fie uses Master Merlin's magic orb to cast an invisibility spell, which startles everyone. Especially Aunt Amleth

(Master Merlin?) [Amleth]

"Fie is cute, right?" [Diana]

"She sure is" [Amleth].

A smile that said I agree with you. Fie really is a cute kitty, even winning the heart of Auntie Amleth in one fell swoop. 

"Welcome. How can we help you today..." 

The shopkeeper welcomes us with a big and cheerful smile. She looks like she's about the same age as Nar, Sas and Jean. However, the moment she sees Aunt Amleth, Kara and Mara, her reaction is the same as Neloufa's. 

"Auntie Amleth, how did someone as pretty as you scare almost everyone you met?" [Diana].

"I have no idea, my dear. I'm sure I'm not that intimidating" [Amleth].

(Sorry, but your position as our country's leader makes you so) [Kat, Linda]

The shopkeeper comes rushing over to greet Queen Amleth personally. He looks like someone who has just seen a ghost, considering how pale he is. Queen Amleth simply tells the owner that she's here today to spend her precious time with her daughters, who are always sick. Hearing this, Kara and Mara blush and begin to hug Aunt Amleth's legs tightly as they thank her.

"You should come too" [Diana].

"AM NOT!" [Neloufa]

I nudge Neloufa towards the three of them and tell them to hug Auntie Amleth as well. She obviously starts to resist. 

"Diana, don't push Neloufa too much" [Liya].

"AM NOT" [Diana]

"You take a lot from Nar and Sas" [Linda].

"At this rate, you're becoming a mini version of them" [Kat].

"Really!" [Diana]

(We're not praising her... Why does she look happy?) [Kat]

(At least she looks cute and gets our "praise") [Linda]

And so our shopping session began. I browse through many good looking utensils, as well as books and accessories. They're all pretty, which makes it hard for me to choose. Kara and Mara look like they're having so much fun as they comment on how nice it is to be able to walk without much assistance. Neloufa is paralyzed because there's so much to choose from.

Just as we are about to have fun trying on new clothes, my blessing senses a danger approaching. I tried to scan the environment to protect them, but

(Leave it to us) [Jean]

(Can you please not tell anyone? Let them have their fun. We adults will handle this.) [Amleth]

(I'll stay with them all, Linda, you help them) [Kat]

(Of course) [Linda]

They can tell something bad is about to happen, judging by my reaction just now. I just nod at Aunt Amleth's request and continue to have "fun" with the unsuspecting Liya, Kara, Mara and Neloufa.

Fie, on the other hand, lands on Aunt Amleth's left shoulder and begins to purr.

(Master Merlin, it's been a while.) [Amleth]

(We will talk about that later. For now, how about we greet the "guest" who is interrupting this little girl's fun time) [Fie].
