"Right!" Isabella opened her Warrior Dimension and reached in for something. "Do you have enough money? I have some..."

Money? Right! It suddenly occurred to Qian Jin that the gold bricks he had earned from Lucifer Nihan were still in his Warrior Dimension. He had planned to give this fortune to Rosella, so she could invest it in business ventures. All these days he had been so busy dealing with Marc Gavin and the Mayor’s son that he completely forgot about it.

"Well, seems you don’t need it." Isabella waved her hand and said, "Then I’ll just leave you two lovebirds alone. Have a good date!"

Lovebirds? Qian Jin frowned and tried to say something but only to find that Isabella had already gone towards classroom building. Gabriella stood there and buried her head almost in her robe out of embarrassment.

"Shit..." With a swing of her hips, Isabella stretched herself. The thighs looked immediately much slender and the butt firmer, which caught most the passing eyes. "I thought I might receive an invitation from that young warrior. Who would have known...?"

Qian Jin turned around. The timid mage Gabriella bowed her head to the ground as usual. The two fell into a weird silence.

"I say..." Qian Jin first broke the silence with curiosity. "I saw you go to the classroom. What did you come back for?"

Gabriella raised her head a little, held out her pink hand from the oversized robe and pointed at Qian Jin’s chest. "My book bag..."

Qian Jin patted his forehead. They were partners. Whey they fought together, it was always the warrior who carried the baggage. The overweight book bag should naturally be put into the Warrior Dimension to spare the mage’s hands.

Gabriella couldn’t attend the class without textbooks. When she came back to fetch the book bag, she saw the harassing Abela so she stepped forward.

"I see..." Qian Jin scratched his head. "Shall we go now?"

The girl nodded resolutely as she clenched her fists in the magic robe. Walking along with Qian Jin, she clearly felt the passers-by were all looking at them in a weird and curious way.

Yulee city was the center of Yulee Region.

Every force would try every means they were capable of to infiltrate this city! That’s why Yulee was so vibrant. Although it was not that spacious and imperial as Qian city, it was full of thriving business.

Food, drinks, entertainment, daily supplies and inferior goods to make up the number.

You could find anything you wanted except prohibited magic weapons for war.

Strolling along the street, Qian Jin suddenly realized it was the first time he had been out shopping even though he had been in this city so many times.

Gabriella quietly followed behind. The hat kept turning back and forth, which showed this quiet and even timid girl also liked shopping as other girls did.

"Dance party...Huh?" Qian Jin walked aimlessly when Gabriella suddenly stopped and stood still in front of a clothing store. Along the line of sight, he saw a transparent wardrobe, in which there was a carved wooden model.

It was a floor-length gown with a greenish blue satin bodice and slim skirt of ivory jacquard. On the dress, there was a blooming lotus embroidered in silver line. Around the neck, there was a matching golden gem necklace. The whole picture was lordly but also fresh.

Even the model was just a piece of wood, it looked positively enchanting in that dress like a goddess carved by an art master with time and effort.

It was indeed a fancy dress! Qian Jin pointed at the dress and asked the girl who had lost herself in it, "You like it?"

Gabriella nodded in an extremely subtle way. If Qian Jin hadn’t practiced [Divine Shot] so hard for a keen eyesight that he might not have been able to detect the gesture.

Qian Jin grinned. This mage, who only cared about magic in normal days, did have a taste in clothing. Women were surely born for this.

"Why not go in there and see it for real." Qian Jin pushed the glass inner door and move aside to make a way for the lady to enter first.

Pressing her hat low onto the forehead, Gabriella walked into the room. Before the two shop assistants in uniform came forward, she quickly bent over. The two assistants were stunned! They had never seen a client bow to them first.

Qian Jin quickly walked forward and with both hands, helped the silly mage to straighten up. He then smiled at the two dumbfounded salesgirls. "We are just looking around. Could you please leave us alone?"

In suspense, the two salesgirls moved aside and secretly looked at the strange group. The female mage seemed timid while the male warrior confident. He was not arrogant and even somewhat genial. But it was this geniality that made him confident as if he would never be tensed up by anything in this temporal world.

Only at this time did Qian Jin begin to look at this large shop. There were at least hundreds of wooden models and they were all in different styles of clothing! The roof was made of stained glass, through which the sunlight was reflected into the room to form a dreamy atmosphere.

"Huh? Jin?"

Qian Jin had a shiver at this familiar voice, or, this name. There was only one woman in this world would call him like that! No, no, a female demon!

Lucifer Lucy! Qian Jin turned around and he was surprised to see three women walk into the shop. Lucifer Lucy, Gomez Jane, and Rosella!

In their eyes, Qian Jin saw curiosity, surprise, and bewilderment. Shouldn’t this man be in the class right now? Why was he here, in the most luxurious, beautiful and also the most popular clothing store in the city?

The embarrassed man scratched the back of his head. "Uh... What a coincidence?" In fact, before they left the academy, he had thought about inviting the three gorgeous women to shop together. At the same time, they could also offer some advice for Gabriella. But he shrank back at the destined question, "Why do you need a dress?"

Should he answer like this, "There is a ball in our school tonight and I’m taking Gabriella with me. You three stay home and... Count the stars?".

He didn’t know how Gomez Jane and Rosella would react, but the demon? She would definitely badger to go! If Qian Jin didn’t agree, she would still show up there at the end and dress like a queen!

That’s why Qian Jin had given up the idea. He least expected he would have run into them in this clothing shop.

"Gabriella?" Lifting her dress with both hands, Rosella went to them at a speedy pace! She looked at the mage and her man then a trace of disappointment and sadness flashed in her eyes!

He felt unease straight away! For the first time, Qian Jin had realized that there was such a lethal look in this world! The plaintiveness of Rosella was a more effective weapon than any Forbidden Spell, Fighting Technique, and Soul Weapon!

Gomez Jane followed up and patted Rosella on her back. She looked at Qian Jin and said in a complaining tone, "We have told you we are okay with Gabriella..."

Qian Jin helplessly exclaimed to the sky! No matter how he worried that Lucifer Lucy would make trouble at the party tonight, now he had to deal this and explain himself. "Here’s the thing! There is a ball tonight at our school! Gabriella is my partner for tonight and we are here only to buy a dress."

The pathos in Rosella’s eyes seemed reluctant to leave! Qian Jin asked: "You do not believe me?"

"Of course I believe you." Rosella gently rubbed her index fingers back and forth and answered in a lowered voice with her head buried down.

"Then..." Qian Jin became more confused, "Why you still look at me like that?"

"I did not blame you for being with Gabriella." Rosella looked up and said in an envious tone, "I just... I have never been out shopping with you, alone!"

What? Qian Jin became almost speechless with shock and bewilderment. Was that all? That’s why she’s so sad? This... Qian Jin felt like he would never figure out what was on a woman’s mind. They were like vexatious enigmas that were a hundred times more difficult than practicing Warrior Power and Fighting Techniques.

Compared to women, the most complicated Warrior Power and Fighting Techniques became the easiest.

Gomez Jane walked to Qian Jin in with springy steps and the bright eyes also revealed a touch of sadness. "I haven’t, either..."

Was this shopping-alone thing important? Qian Jin would like to ask this question out but a faint hunch kept telling him not to. He might be choked to death by these unpredictable women! action

Qian Jin mentally ran over this question... Right! Hayen Brianna! Fortunately, he had known a female warrior! He could turn to her about this question once he had the chance.

"Next time, next time." Qian Jin nodded with cold sweat on his forehead. "Next time, I’ll go shopping with you guys one-on-one."

Hastily the clouds dispersed! Joy and happiness occupied her beautiful face again! Even Gomez Jane looked much merrier.

Lucifer Lucy couldn’t keep quiet any longer and burst out, "And me!"
