STARTING THE TRAINING

One week later...

Aristia got up in high spirits. It was her first day of training. The Grand Duchess had gotten training clothes made for her after a little persuasion.

That time, she had said to the Grand Duchess, "Mama, could you please get me training clothes? Here is the design." She handed over a sketch of her envisioned training outfit.

"But this... This is men's clothing," Catherine was caught off guard. How could her daughter wear male clothes?

[No, these aren't men's clothes. They're practical female training pants, thank you very much.] She thought, but didn't voice it.

"Please, Mama. I need this so I can avoid tripping and falling during training, and so I have the freedom to move. The gowns are too heavy and restrict my movement. What if I fall and injure myself?" She asked coquettishly.

Credits to her, she didn't cringe.
