Chapter 483 – 259 Store Employee: Mr. Dorma
It’s not as fluorescent green as it turned into when I stepped on the pressed carpet at the entrance of the store to ensure a clean floor, put on the white bodysuit provided by the association, and even put on additional parts on top of my head. The interior of the store seen through golden eyes that seem to have been slightly touched.
There was no way to find out whether it had been there from the beginning, or whether customers had entered the store over time as Sonia continued to look at one window of a clothing store that was larger than expected. Clothing store crowded with customers
(Thank goodness… I won’t get any attention if I do this…)
Even if I just went in, it was my fate that I would have definitely attracted people’s attention thanks to the special design of the reinforced bodysuit and the complete belly button exposure.
“Yes, did you call Cody?”
The uniform of the store clerks is so unique that the blond busty hero wearing reinforced bodysuit armor provided by the Hero Association, most of whom are androids, and which exposes the belly button plug port, has become commonplace.
Similar to the reinforced bodysuit that puts pressure on Sonia’s skin, the innersuit leaves her belly button exposed. However, the clerks wear name tags on their chests as clear proof that they are clerks of this store.
Thanks to this, the clothing store attracts more attention to adventurers shopping by keeping their extremely thick tails as unobtrusive as possible, rather than to Sonia, which sells sensitive cyber implants called belly button plug ports.
I keep glancing around to see if I’ve entered the wrong cosplay store, but looking at the people rummaging through the mountain of clothes, I’m sure it’s a proper store…
“… It’s warmer here than the chilly outside…
Well… Then, shall we take a look?”
As Sonia finishes making meaningless excuses to herself that no one will pay attention to, she slowly begins to look at the entrance… Starting from the place where the store clerks won’t stick around.
A hero who seems to have no presence in Sky City, looking for blouses or sportswear that he can comfortably wear while walking around without even paying attention to the suit category that doesn’t look suitable and has no connection. Sonia.
“… Hot?”
When I came to my senses and opened my eyes after searching around for a pretty design.
Of course, it was Sonia who woke up in the corner where the mannequins were gathered.
—
“Everyone… Everyone is pretty. The clothes, the design, but especially… The mannequin…”
All the mannequins were slightly different in height and size, but they all looked so real that you could think they were made by a craftsman… Or a craftsman with a lot of time.
(Not moving. If it weren’t for the shiny skin, I think you’d think it was real…)
Just for a moment. Sonia’s lewd memory that she tries not to show on the outside is a lewd thought that brings up the absurd possibility that she watched it on a pornographic video service site… And by the way, she is pretending to be a mannequin by referring to the video with that tag… It was a circuit.
“As expected… It’s not…”
If she said she wasn’t expecting it, it was obvious she was lying. Sonia looked closely at the mannequins’ chests to see if they rose or fell even a little.
After hearing Sonia’s mutterings to herself… Which were meant to be a bit disappointing that she wasn’t a real person and not a mannequin, the clerk at the clothing store first approached the hero with his belly button exposed, who was fiddling with a black blouse, his favorite color.
“Are you looking for something? If you need some coordination, can I help you? Of course, it’s free?”
“… Huh!?”
Sonia was startled by the lively voice of the store clerk next to her, and only then did she move her head to look.
She was a woman who looked at least ten years older than she was, and although she was not identical, she looked similar. A woman dressed like other store clerks.
‘I’m a designer. So please leave the coordination to me!’
When Sonia approached wearing a costume that made one think,
She gave back the answer she had already thought of.
“Oh… No! I’m fine! Uh… Mr. Dorma?”
It was Sonia who wore a reinforced bodysuit armor with a design that exposed the belly button plug port for the convenience of Android, which should have caught everyone’s attention. At least in this place. In this store, everyone’s eyes are focused on the store clerks, so Sonia’s appearance has become ordinary.
As she spoke, Sonia looked at the name tag on her employee’s chest and continued, ‘I’m just looking…’
“Ahaha… I understand. But this is our job. Don’t hesitate~ The ‘CEO’ likes it when it sells a lot, but I have more fun coordinating other people’s outfits than that.”
The confident and sensible voice of the employee whose name tag says ‘Dorma’. Maybe it’s just my mood. A confident store employee who conveys as much shock as the surprise brought by the mannequins in this clothing store.
(This… Is this… Insa…!?…?)
“I can clearly see what you’re thinking~ Relax. And take a look around. All the employees working here are doing it because they like it, right? Look. Take a look over there and over there. Don’t be so nervous~”
“Uh… Uhh…”
Looking at the end of the direction the finger is pointing, and checking the appearance of the store clerks pointed by another finger, all I can say is the staff uniform,
-How do you feel about this…? It seems like it would suit…
-This. Munjaang… You know… Stinia… Sister… Currently… Working… Part-time… Because…
-The barcode… Is a discount code… I’ll take a picture of it later… Hehe…
To put it nicely… An outfit that shatters expectations…
, Sonia confirmed that she was wearing a unique outfit that naturally blended into the store rather than a cosplay.
Of course, it is printed on the name tag on the chest [Clerk: Dorma], So it is the same for Mr. Dorma…
“Uh… Uh…”
“The employees here are all in the coordination or design field. Anyway, they are very diverse, right?”
I didn’t ask, but the staff member, who used to be an idol’s costume manager and is introducing lingerie costumes to customers as if they were embarrassed, is a part-time student at the academy’s non-combat department and design department. Mr. Dorma, the store clerk, continues to explain.
In front of people. Sonia, who is not particularly confident when talking to people she does not know or is meeting for the first time, tried to refuse…
“And it’s free, right? Not only do we pick out clothes that suit everyone because they like them, but… We also have this power, right?”
Mr. Dorma takes out a round red sticker from his pocket and shows it to me.
Although it’s a cheap post-it sticker. The number written on the sticker is [-50%]
“If you’re not busy… Would you mind if I coordinate your outfit? Sir?”
(Ha… Discount…!?)
(That’s right. It’s free… And… That’s it. If I refuse, Mr. Dorma will have no work… He might get fired later… So, this is also Sky City’s hero. Duty as…!)
There are a lot of clothes properly dressed up on mannequins. There were many products neatly hung on the shelves with hangers. A clothing store where most of the clothes are piled up like a mountain and laid out as if you are trying to choose the right one.
The ironic thing is. I thought it was a clothing store that buys cheaper products in bulk and stacks them up to sell.
The pile of clothes that the ladies, the academy students who couldn’t tell if they were out of class or on their day off, and the adventurers were all running through the pile of clothes, all from well-known high-end brands. It even has the original tag on it… Maybe the cheapest product in this large clothing store is the most expensive luxury brand in another store… You never know…
“Please take care of me…”
Sonia takes a step forward against overconsumption.
It was Sonia who took two steps back from her vague plan to purchase a maid robot.
“Please take care of me. I’m the manager here, Dorma! And the customer is… Can I ask his name?”
“So. Sonia. It’s Sonia…”
Is it so. Please take care of me. Sonia! Sonia was taken aback by the feel of Dorma’s fingers, which were infinitely softer than she thought, in her own hands, and she followed Dorma into the back of her shop as he dragged her along.
—
Sonia is once again surprised by the explanation that the small store she thought had only one window displaying the mannequin she had been staring at was in fact the entire building.
“Actually, this is my first time experiencing something like this. Normally, if you want free coordination when you come in, you have to wait a little bit, but we match it for you… For customers who don’t like being followed by staff, we don’t provide any guidance.”
So, I will do my shopping alone at the entrance, avoiding the employees and hesitating. Mr. Dorma said he tried talking to Sonia once, but not in the hallway.
“And… Is there another reason?”
“So… And…? This… Reason?”
Store employee making a really serious expression while hesitating: Mr. Dorma
“It’s so cute and big! If we just send it back to Sky City. No. It’s a loss for all of humanity, right?”
Sonia thought she was nervous for no reason.
