Just like that, the next morning, Baiyi and Mia prepared to leave the dormitory and move to Tisdale's mansion. Both of them did not have much luggage so they kept everything in their storage pouch. Only the animal coin banks that were planted with flowers and plants had to be carried away by hand since they could not be kept in the storage pouch.
Mia was still dressed in the same outfit as the last time she went shopping with Baiyi. She was wearing a white dress and a big sunhat, looking as cute as an angel. She was hugging a kitty coin bank in her arms that was filled with white wildflowers that Baiyi had dug up from the roadside. She looked very excited. After all, it was the first day of the holiday. Baiyi, on the other hand, used his Mana to hover the five pots of flowers behind him, making them look like balloons.
At that moment, the Celestial Fortress Academy was much more deserted than usual. Many students had already left the academy yesterday, including the group of workers from the Seniors Park. Yesterday afternoon, one after another, they came to bid farewell to Baiyi and followed their Soul Armature Practitioners back to their hometown.
Because of that, the two black carriages that were parked in front of the dormitory were particularly conspicuous. With just one look, it was obvious that they were coming for Baiyi.
The person who came down from the first carriage was a fiery red figure. In the hot summer, it was already irritating to look at him and the moment he opened his mouth, it was even more irritating, "Aha! Master Hope! I've been waiting for you to come out! "
That was the Magi-breaker that was cut into pieces by Baiyi the last time. Now that he looked at it, he seemed to have recovered to his original state. Looks like he has found another powerful blacksmith. However, the Anti-Magic Metal itself was soft and brittle, so it was easy to repair.
"I've brought you the best fabric in Arfin City. There are all kinds of colors here. Just take whatever you want. It should be enough to compensate you with a cloak, right?" As he said that, the Magi-breaker opened the carriage door, revealing the inside of the carriage that was filled with all kinds of fabrics.
Is this guy really going to compensate Baiyi with a cloak? But the cloak was not a problem that could be remedied by any amount of cloth.
His Soul Armature Practitioner, a boy with a golden collar clip, walked over from the other side of the carriage and bowed politely to Baiyi. After stealing a few glances at Mia, he said, "Coincidentally, our family is in the fabric business. Here are a few batches of good goods that we have stocked up. Please feel free to take your pick, Master Hope. Of course, if Mia has any needs, please feel free to take your pick as well. We will also contact a tailor for you."
These two fellows really don't have good brains, right? Other people would either give real gold coins or real magic materials as gifts to build relationships, but these two fellows actually brought a cart of cloth over? Baiyi was speechless.
Perhaps it was because of the mention of new clothes, Mia's eyes lit up and she exclaimed, "Wow! Really? But the cloak last time was only made of curtain cloth … "
You're such a good-for-nothing girl! Just you wait and see!
Baiyi already felt that his Soul Armature Practitioner was already embarrassed enough but who would have thought that the silly boy who was staring at Mia would be even more embarrassed. Faced with Mia's question, he replied without hesitation, "Ah, curtain cloth? There are some in here too. I remember that there is also a cloth that changes color according to the weather. It's the most suitable for making curtains... "
This boy was so focused on peeking at Mia that he probably did not even know what he was talking about, right?
Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, Baiyi quickly intervened and pulled Mia back from the carriage door to stand behind him. Casually, he said, "Just pick one that suits the color. Don't take too much."
"Oh..." Now that the new clothes were gone, Mia's mood immediately sank. Turning her head to look at the color of Baiyi's armor, she asked tentatively, "Why don't we choose green? The weather is so hot, let's choose a cool color... Eh? Sniff sniff... Mr. Hope, why did you pinch my face all of a sudden? "
You little girl! Aren't you very good at dressing up? You can just wear whatever you want and you can go out looking beautiful but why are you so muddle-headed when you're dressing me up? Even green is here? Do I have to forgive you or something?
In the end, the suggestion was approved by the Magi-breaker. Clapping his hands, he said, "That sounds like a good idea! I'll go and paint myself green later!"
Are you a prophet or a Magi-breaker? Could it be that your surname is Bo?
In the end, Mia only picked a small piece of ordinary black cloth and the Magi-breaker duo left under the invisible urging of the other carriage. Baiyi believed that the next time he saw the Magi-breaker, he would be able to forgive him because of his green color, right?
The person who came down from the second carriage was a standard aristocratic butler. He did not say much nor did he reveal his identity. All he did was secretly flash a family emblem with a griffin engraved on it as he bowed. Then, he handed a storage pouch to Baiyi respectfully with both hands before he turned around and left. All he said was, "This is a token of appreciation from the young lady."
This guy is really neat and tidy... Baiyi kept the storage pouch and silently gave a thumbs up to the professionalism of the aristocratic butler.
"What's this?" Mia asked curiously.
"Hmm, it should be a gift from your previous opponent, right? She wants to apologize to you for her inappropriate behavior in the arena, "Baiyi replied casually.
"Is that so? That Vidomina sure is courteous, "Mia muttered under her breath.
You're so naive... Baiyi did not say anything. Instead, he bent down to take the kitty coin bank and the piece of cloth from Mia's hands. Holding the little girl's hand, they left the Celestial Fortress Academy together.
When they arrived at Tisdale's mansion, the two girls were instantly filled with passion towards the piece of cloth. Tisdale even took out a whole set of needlework and thread from god knows where and the two of them started to discuss how to make a cloak for Baiyi.
Baiyi, on the other hand, started to tidy up the few pots of flowers and grasses before opening the storage pouch that Vidomina had given him. Holy cow! There was no such thing as gold coins in the pouch. Instead, it was filled with solid magical materials and magical tools.
Necklaces, rings, bracelets and other magical tools that had already taken shape, Baiyi used his Psychic Energy to examine them. They were all good stuff so he put them aside for now and focused on the magical materials. Other than the five bottles of White Dragon Blood which was a rare material that he had already gotten his hands on, the rest of the items were Glittering Ice Crystals and Leaping Water which were high-grade water-based magical materials.
Among the materials, the most eye-catching one was undoubtedly the two blue and red stones. The strange looking stone was called the Soul Suppressor. It was an extremely rare but crucial magical material for a Soul Armature. Its biggest function was to increase the distance between the Soul Armature and the practitioner by several times. Just like the two stones that Baiyi had in his hand, one could be embedded into the Soul Armature and the other one could be worn by the practitioner. As long as the gap between the two of them was not too big, it would be more than enough for the Soul Armature to be able to move freely around the entire Arfin City.
This thing could be said to be the most coveted item for a Soul Armature. Even its price was hard to estimate. Unfortunately, it did not seem to be of much use to Baiyi. But never mind, I'll just put it aside for now.
All in all, Vidomina's generosity had indeed exceeded Baiyi's expectations. No wonder she was the prodigal daughter of the Duke's family. First, she gave him a Saint Quartz staff, and then she gave him a bunch of magical equipment and magical materials that were very suitable for Mia. Just by using her money, Baiyi's impression of her increased by + 1.
"But other than the Soul Suppressor, most of the materials that she gave him are water-based. Doesn't this look like it's tailor-made for that plushie?" Baiyi commented in the Void.
"If we really put all these materials into that plushie, won't it evolve into a sea king?" Someone chimed in and a discussion about the hammerhead shark plushie started in the Void again.
"We should make it into something like a battleship. At the same time, it should have both defense and firepower. Hmm, it must have a cherry blossom background too!"
"Pfft! Ship dogs are so disgusting! If you ask me, why don't we just make it into a battleship? Mia-chan will just have to be the pilot! "
"Can't you guys be a little more pragmatic? I think it's better to make it into something like the Rising Star! "
I say, what are you guys thinking? That thing is just a plushie after all! It's soft and fluffy with a snow-white belly. It's the kind of style that girls like! No matter what, this thing can't evolve into what you guys are thinking! Baiyi protested to the group of people who were bored out of their minds. Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to him at that moment.
So, while Mia's attention was on the cape, he sneaked into her room and took the hammerhead shark plushie from her hands. Then, he cut open the plushie's belly and replenished the Mana that he had used earlier.
As for the next step of the modification work, it would have to wait until the Void came up with a reliable conclusion. The materials could be put aside for now. After all, it was a peaceful holiday now. This thing only needed to take on the plushie's work. Baiyi thought to himself.
By nightfall, the two girls had finally finished sewing the cloak together. This time, because there were two people working on it, the workmanship was much better than the last one. Also, because the cloak was black and white, coupled with Baiyi's gray sorcerer's armor, it made the cloak look majestic and mysterious at the same time.
Other than that, there were some details on the cloak that the two girls did not mention but Baiyi noticed. He grabbed a corner of the cloak and saw two lines of small words embroidered on it. They were Mia's and Tisdale's names.
