36 – Some Interesting Outfits

"We really want to recruit all of you to our guild." Gina sighed as they entered a large room filled with armor, other outfits, and weapons. That place is almost twice the size of a basketball court. "You can check every corner of this house. I guarantee you, you won't find anything suspicious."

Celia, who was standing beside the woman, replied. "Please forgive Al. He had met users who almost killed me and robbed us. So, he became more careful now."

Alan didn't care about the conversation and chose to focus on looking for clothes on a large rack. He can't please everyone, after all.

"Well, I'm sure in the end, you guys will believe us." Gina put her hands on her hips, looking at the young man. "We need to unite to fight that player killer."

"Why did you guys decide to gather so many people?" Alan joined in. "Is he that scary?"

"His name is Sigmund, a man who claims to have done this under the orders of the Ode. You know, one of the goddesses in this world." Gina sat on a chair. "My previous group consisted of five people, including me. They all died by that man. I'm the only one left, and that's because of luck."

Alan stopped what he was doing, and Celia gulped hard.

"I'm sorry to hear that." The female fighter said.

Closing her eyes, Gina continued. "That's why, when I met Ziggy, I asked him to gather people. With more numbers and higher levels, we can definitely beat Sigmund."

"That's actually a great idea," Alan commented. "Are you guys going to act aggressively by attacking Sigmund first?"

"No... We don't know where that man is hiding." Gina's mouth curved into a bitter smile. "Perhaps the more appropriate words are; by being together like this, the probability of Sigmund's survival would also increase. We don't really want to hunt him down."

"That's a good idea too." Alan rummaged through the clothes hanging again. "A large number of members can make your group successful because many people work, but the risk will also be higher. It is because there will be many different personalities and opinions."

"Ziggy's leadership is good enough." Gina continued. "Sometimes there are arguments between the members, but Ziggy always has the best solution to solve it."

"Celia!" Haruna appeared from behind a clothes rack. "I found something good for you!"

Without asking for approval, Haruna pulled the female fighter's hand.

Gina looked at Alan, who had chosen a white and dark blue magic robe, along with a silver magic staff with a blue crystal on the tip.

Grade in equipment in Odeatha refers to the effectiveness of its use. The higher the grade, the faster Alan can carry out attacks or other magic-related skills. The impact is also greater.

Alan wondered what was behind Luz's name. Is it an owner, maker, or just a place?

"Hey, Al." Gina put her chin to her palm. "Is one of them your girlfriend?"

"No," Alan answered without looking at Gina, preferring to examine the robe more.

"I see."

"I can't possibly wear clothes like this!" Celia screamed from the corner of the room.

"Just wear it! You are not alone! Look at my clothes!" Haruna replied in an equally loud voice.

"Excuse me," Alan said to Gina, then approached the fitting room that Haruna and Celia were currently occupying.

And when the curtain of that room opened, Alan felt a jolt in his heart.

"I told you, I don't want to wear this!" Celia protested with the reddest face Alan had ever seen. "This thing barely covers my breasts and pubic hair!"

She was wearing what could only be described as red bikini armor. And just like Celia said, that outfit was so skimpy that it showed off her beautiful curves.

"You saw it yourself, right!?" Haruna insisted. "This armor has a magic defense that will activate when you get hit in any exposed part! So, it's better than using heavy armor! Your movement becomes more agile, and you can minimize the clothes that cover your lower body! That's what you want, right!?"

Even that female fighter's buttocks were exposed almost completely. There is only one metal string covering her butt crack.

Celia gasped hard as soon as she realized Alan's presence, then immediately ran into the fitting room again.

"And she said she liked wearing bikinis on the beach." Haruna grinned. "The only thing that differentiates it from a bikini is the metal material."

Alan took a deep breath. He was sure Haruna was just making fun of Celia and maybe of him too.

"Please, wear clothes that are more appropriate, Haruna." The young man complained. His gaze went the other way.

"What's wrong with this?" Haruna's grin became even broader. She turned around to show off her dark magenta female ninja outfit. "It's also been enchanted with strong defensive magic. This suit is heat and cold resistant too. So, I'll be fine even if a lot of my skin is exposed."

The female rogue then drew a short katana-like weapon from behind her waist. "And it also comes with a weapon."

"That's not the point." Alan rubbed his face. It was no better than the bikini armor Celia was wearing just now. That thing exposed all of Haruna's legs, also revealing the rogue's cleavage, side boobs, back, and some of the buttocks. "At the very least, use something to cover up the exposed bits."

Alan was starting to get irritated. As a normal man, he had to struggle not to see Haruna's beautiful body.

"The effect of this outfit won't activate if I stack it with other clothes." Haruna spun once more, making the flap covering her buttocks and crotch flutter up. Alan held his breath when he caught a glimpse of Haruna's plump behind. "Ah, I just found out that this thing gives me a special skill too!"

While Haruna opened her game UI, Alan asked Celia, who had just come out of the room wearing more normal clothes. "Can you help me, Celia? Maybe as a fellow woman, you can teach her common sense."

Alan couldn't imagine Haruna walking in public in such vulgar clothes.

Before Celia had even spoken, Haruna approached Alan. The rogue slightly bent down, making her cleavage even more prominent, then brushed her tongue against her lips. "You don't want other men's eyes to enjoy my body, Al? Are you jealous of me?"

"It is not like that." Alan could see this trap from afar, but he had a bit of trouble overcoming it. "Well, if you really want to wear this, I will satisfy myself by looking at you."

Alan stared at Haruna's body. The young man hoped this girl would be embarrassed and would wear more appropriate clothes.

However, Haruna took another folded clothes on the shelf beside her. Alan immediately knew that the rogue had deliberately placed that thing there.

That outfit still has a ninja feel but is more traditional. It's a long-sleeved jumpsuit that covers the 'dangerous' parts. Besides that, that suit was quite loose, so it didn't highlight Haruna's curves.

Alan hadn't commented yet, but Haruna was already wearing the black outfit. The young man didn't even notice when Haruna did that.

"This outfit is so easy to take off and put on," Haruna smirked. "I'll take this shirt off if I'm going to fight." She touched both of Alan's waists. "So, you don't have to worry, Al."

The young man looked up, feeling he had lost this time. His attention was on Haruna for a few moments, even though he had avoided that girl's seduction since meeting her.

Meanwhile, Celia was trying to put on a set of bronze-colored armor on one side of the room. Her blank gaze fell on her reflection in the mirror.

Alan returned to his nonchalant mode as he walked into the fitting room.

"Do I need to accompany you?" Haruna giggled, and Alan didn't answer her.

And suddenly, a sound like an explosion echoed from outside the room.
