chapter 44
“What did you come here for? Do you want to do an event for your boyfriend? Cat clothes and rabbit clothes can be found if you go this way!”
“No, I… Not like that.”
“Then what? Do you want something more daring? Then inside… ”
“No! disguise, disguise. I want to disguise myself. I can’t find out… ”
Karin hesitated and answered. The sales clerk did not give in to such a response, and continued to talk to him. Finally, the clerk suggested that the impression would be different if the two-sided hair was untied and a wig and lenses were worn.
“Then there is a wig in the corner over there, so choose the one that fits your head! Look in the mirror in the changing room over there and check it out!”
‘I lived… ‘
Watching the clerk giving the diagnosis and returning to the counter, Karin wiped her chest. Then, as instructed, she loosened her hair and put on a black wig. Then, I put on a light purple lens and put smokey makeup around my eyes. I definitely feel like my impression has changed a bit.
‘Didn’t you tell me to check the full-length mirror in the changing room?’
Karin walked towards the locker room in the corner with a pounding heart. It was locked as if someone was already using it. When I knocked on the door, a woman’s voice came out.
“Oh, sorry! I’ll be leaving soon!”
‘yes?’
It was a voice I had heard somewhere. Then the door swung open. Karin made eye contact with the woman who had escaped from the dressing room, and her face hardened. He was wearing an orange wig and horn-rimmed glasses, but he was quickly recognized by the characteristic skin color that looked like it was covered in flour.
“you you. What are you doing here.”
“Uh, Karin is, why, here.”
It must have been Ren. Ren was also in disguise at this shop. Ren also recognized Karin quickly, despite his disguise, and hardened his face. The two men, who had been hardened like mangbu-seok for a moment, turned their heads at the sound of a distant voice.
“Hey, I’ve got it! A bread hat that can hide ears and ears! Wig and lenses, please!”
It was a voice I had never heard before. Karin and Ren walked towards the source of the voice. And I found a familiar friend. It was Nael. Nael, who was trying to cover up the elf’s characteristic pointed ears with a bread hat, found the two and widened her eyes.
“Oh, what a coincidence! You’re both here!”
“Ahaha, that’s it.”
Ren awkwardly raised his hand to greet him. The three of them instinctively felt it. The fact that everyone came to Rottern for the same reason as you. And that everyone is both a collaborator and a competitor. There was an awkward silence between the three of them for a moment. This time, a roaring voice broke the silence.
“hello!”
It was the sound of a nun with straw all over her body, as if she had just gotten out of an oxcart, opened the door and shouted. It was Elaine, a woman in a nunnery that was bold enough to show her pantyhose. As she entered the store, she saw Karin and widened her eyes.
“Oh, you… ”
“Oh, it’s been a while… ”
“The button is loose! If you are a lady, you should be in good shape!”
Then he fixed his clothes and walked out again. It seemed that he was deceived by his disguise and did not recognize Karin. Then I went to the counter and started talking to the clerk.
“Oh, another pretty guest! Do your guests also find tools to disguise themselves?”
“no! I’ve been wandering around looking for a way for 2 hours now, so can I ask where is the cafe that has just opened?”
“Cafe, cafe? Oh, what is Helena doing? If that’s the case, I just go out and it’s right in front of my eyes… ”
“okay! thanks!”
Apparently, he just got lost and came to the store. Elaine showed off her little teeth and smiled broadly, and quickly left the store.
“Hey, wait!”
Karin hurried and grabbed Elaine. He was so strong that he was only able to catch him after being dragged out of the store.
“yes? Why? Do you want to say thank you to the cute me?”
“No, no. It’s me!”
Karin quickly took off her wig and said. Elaine, who only noticed then, shouted in surprise.
“Karin? Why are you here? Dressing up like that!”
“Hey, it’s been a while. Would you like to have a conversation with us first?”
“wren? Nael? you too? What kind of surprise party is this?”
As if Chuho didn’t really notice, looking at Elaine who was blinking, Karin, relaxed, smiled.

Meanwhile, around that time.
Inside the cafe run by Helena, sighs were flowing continuously. It was because Helena, who was lying on the counter, sighed after a minute had passed. Zain was wiping the cup next to him, giving him a pin cup.
“What should I do, there are no customers today… ”
“Look at that.”
“There is such a wonderful cafe, why is no one coming? Damn the public out of date… ”
“Don’t blame the customer for setting the wrong industry. The customer is the king.”
At that moment, the door opened with a rattling sound. Finally, the first guest of the day arrived. Helena’s face turned red.
“welcome!”
On the other hand, Jain’s face twitched slightly. It was because of the identity of the incoming guest.
“What are you? Why are you here?”
It was Elaine. Elaine carefully opened the door and entered, as if waiting for Zain. It was like reading a Korean book.
“Oh my, this is amazing! I just happened to stop by Rotern and accidentally found a cafe because I was thirsty, and I stumbled upon you!”
The reason Elaine entered the cafe alone. It was because of the plans the four heroines had made. A while ago, the heroines met by chance at a party shop and had a meeting. Since they all have the same purpose of reconciling with Jain, the main focus was on cooperation. In the end, it was decided to spy on the heroines one by one. Elaine volunteered to spearhead.
‘Are you okay?’
At Ren’s anxious question, Elaine dismissed it, pounding her chest.
‘it’s okay! I have a secret weapon!’
So Elaine was the first to enter the cafe. Elaine walked in with a stiff motion and sat down on the chair in front of Jain.
“That’s it, so please take care of me! The clerk at the cafe I met by chance, let’s get the cute me around!”
His legs were brazenly crossed. Zain looked down at Elaine like that coldly, then suddenly grabbed the ball and stretched it.
“Stop the bullshit and tell the real purpose. Dog mop beehive milk boy.”
“Ouch, hey, manager! The customer is the king! The clerk is harassing the customer! Can this be okay? You mentioned earlier that the customer is the king!”
At that, Jain sighed and removed her hand from Elaine’s cheek.
“So, what is the real purpose?”
Elaine fiddled with her red, swollen cheeks, and said in a voluptuous voice.
“Because you can’t go home… Let’s say you’ve become obsolete. It’s not like I’m a human being, so I’m saying that I’m here to take care of you. But I’m living my life on my own terms, and I’m still working here. something It means to move according to people’s plans.”
Hearing this, Jain scratched his head. It didn’t seem like he came with bad intentions. Soon after, Jain took out the menu and showed it to Elaine.
“Okay, okay. Then place your order.”
“order?”
“You said you came as a guest.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Elaine opened the menu board. I thought I should sit in the cafe a little more and watch the atmosphere. So far, the atmosphere doesn’t seem that bad.
“Well… ”
Elaine had never been to a cafe. The menu board was full of unknown menus. Elaine, who had been looking at the menu for a while, chose a menu with a familiar name.
“this! Espresso, please!”
“Espresso? One-shot or two-shot?”
Jain wiped the glass and asked indifferently.
‘More would be better!’
Elaine didn’t know what espresso was, but she came to a simple conclusion.
“Two shots, please!”
“I get it.”
After a while, Elaine, seeing the thick espresso in a small cup, called Jain with a disappointed expression.
“clerk! Come here!”
“What else?”
“Hey, isn’t this the only sheep? The price is so high… ”
It was enough money to buy a few potatoes. But Jain only raised his eyebrows and asked a question.
“ok? You asked for espresso.”
“Yeah, it was.”
“But why are you doing this to me?”
“Iknow, right?”
“What, are you arguing with me?”
“no! I will drink well!”
I guess espresso was originally like this. Concluding, Elaine took a small sip of coffee. A bitter and bitter taste came up on my tongue. Elaine, whose expression was wrinkled, screamed again and called for Jain.
“clerk! This is weird!”
“What else?”
“I use it a lot! Does this store sell drinks that are so bitter that you can’t eat them!”
“What are you talking about, you asked me to add two shots. So don’t write it.”
“Wow, did you originally write this?”
“I thought I would.”
Zain sighed and took the espresso from Elaine’s hand. Then, he added water, milk, and sugar to make it soft and returned it.
“Don’t be pretentious.”
“Huh, bluff, it’s not… I will eat well.”
The coffee returned was definitely, much more drinkable. Elaine’s cheeks turned red with shame. For a while after that, Elaine, without much trouble, glanced at Jain for a chance. Zain was talking to Helena.
“Hey, there are no guests, so sweep the floor.”
“Swept.”
“when?”
“By magic. Wind magic, wind gusts weave the floor dust and blow it all away.”
“Wow, magicians are so easy to buy.”
“It’s unusual for a great magician my size to do chores at the cafe. Be grateful.”
“This is cheeky for my sister.”
‘sister? Oh, is that woman Jain’s older sister? Obviously, the hair color is similar.’
Elaine, who had learned the identity of the woman she had been concerned about for a long time, felt a sense of relief in the corner of her chest. It seemed that it would be ok to start the operation now. Elaine put down her coffee and took out a document. It was her secret weapon, a certificate of chastity she received from the convent. She dropped her chastity certificate on the floor and shouted.
“Over there, the clerk!”
“Again, what?”
“Oh my, I accidentally dropped a piece of garbage! Can you pick me up?”
“Pick it up with your hands.”
“The customer is the king! Does this store make customers do that?”
“I am. Did you really come here to get revenge by acting like a guest?”
Jain scratched his head. Elaine had a triumphant expression on her face. The plan to take care of the destitute with big breasts failed, but this plan was meant to be successful.
‘Now, I accidentally picked up this virginity certificate and looked at it, found out that I was a virgin, and would suffer with extreme regret!’
But Jain behaved in a completely different way than Elaine had expected. Jain, who stopped in the middle, muttered a seal of wind magic.
“Wind Gust.”
Then a gust of wind engulfed all the trash and dust inside the store and started flying out the door. Of course, the certificate issued by the church was also swept away by the wind. Elaine jumped up in shock.
“What are you doing!”
“yes? it’s trash So I just cleaned it up with magic.”
“My, my secret weapon!”
“Hey, aren’t you paying? hey!”
Elaine had already gotten up from her seat and was running out of the store. It was to find the certificate that had been blown away by the wind. Jain hurriedly stepped out the door and looked, but Elaine had already rushed away and ran away. Helena murmured coldly as she looked at Jain’s back.
“Is that person your acquaintance?”
“yes.”
“Then I’ll put the coffee price in front of you.”
“Ugh.”
Jain let out a soft sigh.
*
Meanwhile, at that time, in the alley outside the cafe, three heroines were anxiously waiting for Elaine.
“My secret weapon!”
Seeing Elaine running out with a shout, the heroines’ faces hardened. Elaine soon walked away without a trace. Seeing this, Karin muttered.
“Spearhead, down.”
“It seems that he was kicked out without ever using that secret weapon.”
Elaine must have been kicked out of the cafe after being harassed. It was as expected. Nael’s face was gloomy. What, I’m still not angry. Anxious thoughts like that ran through my head. A determined voice could be heard in Nael’s ears.
“Next time, I will go.”
It was Karin. Disguised in a black wig and lenses, she clenched her fists and looked at the front door of the cafe.
‘Please, forgive me, be reconciled and come back… ‘
Watching Karin enter the cafe with a firm expression as if entering a tiger’s den, Nael clasped her hands and prayed.
