The Japanese Empress Tours the German Capital Part III

After successfully shopping for more hours than Kristoffer ever wanted to participate in, Itami and her family were ready to move on. Out of all the three women, Itami had purchased the least amount. Partially because she did not want to be in Berengar's debt, and partially because she still felt that something sinister was being plotted by the man who sat on the German Throne.

Kristoffer seemed to be perpetually happy, despite Itami's many irksome remarks. The boy just let it go over his head. Maybe he was confident in his own ability and that of the fatherland, or perhaps he just pitied Itami for being such a rueful woman. 

Either way, Itami remained silent for much of the tour. Her reason for doing so? She was processing so many thoughts and emotions that she could not keep her mind on the conversation. Which had now turned to Momo and Mibu, complimenting everything they saw in the reich.
