Volume 9 Chapter 2 Part 8
I warp us to Quratar’s Merchants Guild and then we walk from there.
「Is this a plate mail?」
「Yes, It is.」
After we enter the store, I confirm it with Vesta as we look for plate mails.
Steel Plate Mail.
Is this it?
It is not full armor. Rather, it is basically a metal cylinder covering you from your shoulders up until your waist.
As for the waist potion, there’s something which resembles a fluttering skirt. I’m in luck. It’s not separate, but integrated.
I wonder if she will look like a badly designed robot when she wears it. But then, I wonder how you can even wear it. Maybe it can open up into two from the side?
It looks heavy no matter how you look at it.
I try to lift it by hand. It is not to the point where I can’t hold it, but it is heavy. Can you really go around the Labyrinth while wearing this?
「Oh, this one here is frilly and looks better.」
「It has tassets, too. Other than that, it doesn’t look much different from mine.」
Sherry tells me about it.
Tassets? Is that how it’s called?
Even if you say it is different, I don’t see any difference. There are also only three Empty Skill Slots on it.
「It’s Heavy. Vesta, will you be able to wear it?」
「Let me see. I think it will be alright.」
Vesta raises the steel plate mail and looks at it.
That’s strange. It seemed a lot lighter when Vesta lifted it. Maybe it gets subjected to correction when someone from the Dragonkin tribe is holding it?
「Will this armor be fine with you?」
「Yes, it is going to be plenty enough. Thank you very much.」
I move to other shelves. I choose steel gauntlets and steel demi-greaves to go with the plate mail. They are bracers and footwear made of steel. Steel demi-greaves have knee-length leg guards attached to them. They all have three Empty Skill Slots in them, so I let Vesta choose from among them.
I pass on the head equipment. She would look like a proper Knight if she were to wear a full-face helm. However, Strengthened Hard Leather Helmet will go to waste if that happened.
「Be sure to choose the one you like and bring it over to me.」
「Okay.」
I leave the choosing to Vesta, and go back to the counter, since I hate carrying heavy objects.
「Do you have any Tower Shields for sale?」
「The shield for Dragonkin tribe, eh? Sadly, we don’t have any of those in this store.」
「I see. In that case, I am good.」
I tried to ask the shop clerk about Tower Shields, but as I suspected, he doesn’t sell them in his shop. And since it is not here, then there’s nothing I can do.
It seems that even on the eighteenth floor received damage will not be a problem, so Vesta can keep on using 「Dual Wielding」for now.
「I would like this one.」
Vesta and the others bring protective gear over to the counter. Sherry had steel gauntlets, Miria had steel demi-greaves and Vesta was carrying steel plate mail in her arms. Couldn’t she have carried all of these?
I guess it would be hard even for her, so it’s fine.
I pay the amount and put all of the armor pieces into my Item Box. Even the big plate mail fits nicely inside of it. I am grateful for that, since I won’t have to feel how heavy it is myself.
「How about buying food ingredients after this? Since I will be cooking the oysters, can I ask of you to make another dish?」
「Understood.」
I ask that of Roxanne and the others after we left the Armor Shop.
Since no one seems to know how to cook oyster, I have to be the one to do it.
When we arrive at home, I wash the oysters well, then dredge them in wheat flour and saute them in butter.
「Vesta, squeeze that lemon for me, please.」
「As you wish, master.」
Vesta squeezes the lemon with ease. It feels like a small mandarin instead of a lemon that is being squeezed. From now on, I will have her help me to the utmost of her ability. Once I apply the lemon juice, which I asked Vesta to squeeze out for me, it’s going to be done.
I think that he butter sauteed oyster went quite well. The oysters were cooked pretty nicely. The inside is soft and rich in taste. The sour tinge of the lemon added a good accent to the overall taste
I brought the finished dish to the table so that we could all eat it together.
「The dishes that master cooks are absolutely the best.」
「It is as good as expected. I really feel like it had the same kind of taste as back then.」
「Tasty, desu.」
「Is it really okay for me to be eating such extravagant food?」
It seems popular with the four of them.
「Vesta, try on your protective gear after the dinner is over. It will be a problem if you get confused tomorrow morning, so we might as well take care of it now.」
「Okay. Understood.」
I talk to Vesta while eating an oyster. They might have been quite large, but because there was just one for each of us, the oysters vanished right away, and there’s nothing I can do about it.
After the dinner, I had Vesta try on the plate mail. Since she could have trouble putting it on tomorrow in the morning when it’s still going to be dark, it is better to have her try it out once before that so that she could get the hang of it.
「How is it? You think you can wear it alone?」
「It may be difficult for me to do so, I think.」
「I thought so.」
「Do, desu.”
Miria opens the plate mail and helps Vesta lift it up. She’s puts it on Vesta’s body, and then closes the clasps on it.
She seems to have fitted into it somehow.
「Miria, thank you.」
「Big Sister, desu.」
「Thank you very much.」
Vesta expresses her gratitude. Next, she wears the demi-greaves.
「I should have put on the demi-greaves first.」
Vesta rues herself. She puts the gauntlets on as well. I guess it was hard for her to bend her body after wearing the plate mail. It was a good decision to have had her try it now.
The steel equipment is more stylish than I thought. I was wrong to think she would look like a badly-designed robot.
Her body lines are being emphasized without it being too tight.
Her figure is gorgeous. No matter how you look at it, she looks like a reverse-trap, even though there’s probably no such thing as reverse-trap in this world.
I would like to call her Oscar.
「It fits you well. Is it heavy?」
「A little bit, but I believe I will be fine.」
So it is heavy, after all, huh? Is she perhaps not able to do anything but stand there?
After having her try them on, I make her take them off immediately. Thereafter, I have her take off her clothes, and go to the bathroom to wipe the sweat off with hot water.
After cleaning the sweat, she puts on the camisole negligee.
「So, how is it, Vesta? Were you able to put it on?」
「Yes. But, uhm, the hem is too short…」
When I enter the bedroom, Vesta was wearing the black camisole. Because of her big chest, the camisole looked more lifted than it was supposed to be. Just like… a pyramid? Mount Fuji? Twin Towers?
I would like to call it King Khufu.
「Ooh, Isn’t it better?」
「Thank you very much. But it is embarrassing since it is too short.」
The hem was a little above her knees. It isn’t that short, even though it is called ‘mini’. Well, it’s a given that he would be embarrassed if her knee caps were visible, especially since miniskirt is not known in this world.
I would name it Twiggy. That’s how enchanted I am.
In Japan, pushing down the girls wearing miniskirts was unthinkable. Shit, I can’t wait.
I make her sit down on the side of the bed. Her thighs get exposed further when she sits down. And because of the black colored camisole, her charm blooms even more. This extreme charm can’t be imitated by anything else.
I pull Vesta into my embrace. I touch her knees. The soft and smooth feeling between the satin hem and her bare legs is incredible.
While my hands were feeling her body, my lips go for hers. As for the order of kissing before going to sleep, Roxanne is last, which makes Vesta first. I’m grateful for this order.
Good job me, who came up with this order in th first place.

Versailles no Bara reference? I have never read the manga or seen the anime, but going by the synopsis, it should be set at around the same time as The Three Musketeers, probably a bit later, so I really don’t believe that Oscar would sport a cuirass with gauntlets and demi-greaves…
