"Yes, I am, what's the problem?"
Reiner raised his eyebrows. Originally, he wanted to hide it, but since the other party used the honorific title and accurately stated the award he received, there should be no malicious intent, he guessed.
"This, this, this, I'm sorry, please forgive my gaffe."
The clerk was a little incoherent, her cheeks were slightly red, and she was hurriedly rummaging for something on the counter. Under Reiner's strange look, she took out a sketchbook, opened it to the first page, spread it out and handed it over.
"... Can you sign your name for me?"
The originally polite and generous clerk now looked shy, as if facing the idol he had longed for.
No, why does it seem like Reiner is really her idol
"Uh, okay."
Reiner then picked up the pen handed over by the clerk. He wanted to sign directly, but he suddenly remembered something and stopped writing.
"Can you tell me your name?"
"Huh? Uh-huh, okay, okay, of course, my name is Elise Sophienit."
She was a little panicked, making people feel that if this girl had a tail, she might have started wagging wildly.
"Then, 'To Elise Sophinet, I wish you a happy life every day, Rainer Inglete'... That should be fine."
Reiner left a sentence and signature on the sketchbook in beautiful cursive calligraphy and handed it back to Miss Sophie.
“Thank you so much!”
Miss Sophie looked excited, couldn't help but glance at the signature, and then said to Reiner.
"To show my respect for you, there is no need to pay for these clothes."
"Eh? Is this really good? Wouldn't the store manager object?"
Claire on the side poked her head and said, she subconsciously stood next to Reiner, as if she was a cat declaring sovereignty.
"It doesn't matter, because I am the store manager."
Miss Sophinet smiled, pointed to the sign of the clothing store on the counter, and then explained.
"My uncle is a mage. Under his influence, I also studied magic for a period of time, but unfortunately I had no talent. In the end, I failed to be promoted successfully and had no chance of magic, so I could only inherit the family's magic. business, making clothes here.”
She reached out and gently touched the dress hanging in the closet.
"But I still like magic, and I used my experience of learning magic at that time as a source of inspiration. I designed many skirts with mage elements, which were also liked by many customers."
The skirt has complex geometric patterns, and its design should be inspired by spell models and magic nodes.
It seems that Miss Sophie is using this to commemorate her lost magical life.
Maybe Reiner has been at Crescent Academy for a long time, and occasionally has the illusion that most people in this world know magic, but in fact, except for the Rainbow Tower and the major magic academies where magicians are densely populated, magicians are still relatively rare in normal society. , more of all living beings are ordinary people who have nothing to do with magic.
"As for Mr. Iain Gray's name and deeds, my uncle told me. I think that a person who can promote the progress of the entire magical world at such a young age is quite worthy of respect."
What's more, the real person is much more handsome than the rumors say, Miss Sophienit added.
"I'm just going with the flow of history."
Reiner said humbly, but he felt a little proud in his heart.
This is a real female fan! ! !
"You are so humble. I didn't expect that Mr. Iain Gray, who is extremely knowledgeable, is also such a handsome and considerate gentleman in reality. I really envy him."
Miss Sophie looked at Claire and joked.
"This guy is not..."
Claire's cheeks were slightly red and she turned her face away, not knowing why she was shy.
"Thank you. I appreciate the compliment."
Reiner accepted the praise graciously. He suddenly thought of Dana. He wondered if Miss Sophie was interested in exchanging her experience in fashion design with this student, so he asked.
"By the way, Miss Sophie, there is a student in my school who also has some experience in fashion design. I wonder if you would be willing to give her some guidance?"
"Of course, although this store is a family business, I don't mind mentoring promising young people. In addition, there is one thing I want to explain a little bit."
Upon hearing Reiner's words, Miss Sophie was stunned for a moment, and then said helplessly.
"I'm actually a man."
"... ..." "... ..."
Reiner and Claire were immediately petrified on the spot.
"Isn't this some Toronto joke?"
Reiner asked, and couldn't help but look at the "girl" in front of him.
With that delicate fair skin, slender limbs, cute face, and elegant dress, how could it be that he was so cute
"My family has made a living by making dresses for generations. The heads of the family are all women, but in my generation, I am the only son. Originally, I wanted to escape from the responsibilities of the family by learning magic, but I failed, so I accepted After fate, I wore the dress I made.”
Sophinet explained, seemingly no longer caring about the eyes and comments of others.
“My mother once told me that only by being in contact with these clothes all the time can you appreciate the care put into them. That’s why I dress like this to show others. Over the years, I have gradually gotten used to it. It’s a pity that I can’t measure the size with my own hands. "
Reiner didn't know where he heard a saying, saying that men understand women better than women. Now it seems that there is nothing wrong with this saying at least for Sophie Nite.
This is a living cross-dressing boss.
And compared to the careless Claire, Sophinet is more like a quiet and elegant noble daughter.
Reiner shed a few drops of cold sweat. The real female fan suddenly turned into a cute boy. Once he accepts this setting, it seems... there is no way he can accept it so quickly!
"Don't worry, Mr. Iain Gray, I only dress like this at work. Outside of that, I'm still an ordinary man."
Sophinet smiled, as if she was expecting Reiner's performance.
"Sorry, it's the first time I've seen this happen, so I'm a little surprised."
Reiner explained that he was conscious of his gaffe and hoped not to make the other person feel hurt.
"It doesn't matter, you know at the beginning, I was questioned much more seriously."
Said in an understatement, Sophinet took out a business card. This kind of popular gadget among businessmen is mostly used to express the relationship between the two parties and also reflect some of the characteristics of each person.
Sophinet's business card is just like his outfit, full of lace and pink color blocks. On it, Elise Sophinet's cursive calligraphy is simple and straightforward.
"Mr. Iain Gray, if you are in need, you can come to me at any time. As for these clothes, although customers in our store always pick them up, I can make an exception for you and deliver them to your door personally."
Sophienette said with a smile.
