A NEW DAY of PRIDE and PERIL

After leaving the palace, Luna, Rania, and Lusserina continued walking together until they reached the Noble District. They parted ways after passing through the gate.

"Oh, right, Lu, do you know where Bartasz works?"

"Yes, My Lady," Lusserina replied.

"Then take me there. I want to see his workplace."

"Of course, My Lady."

Since I didn't know the location, Lusserina led the way. After walking for a few minutes, we arrived at a fairly large shop with three floors. Inside, I was surprised—it resembled a mall. Various goods were on display everywhere, from daily necessities to adventure equipment, swords, and shields. As we entered, we were greeted by one of the employees.

"Miss Lusserina! Good afternoon," the shopkeeper greeted.

"Good afternoon," Lusserina replied.

"Are you here to purchase something?"

"No, I'm here accompanying My Lady to meet the Young Master. Is he here?"
