Chapter 442 - A Place For Nobles



Chapter 442 – A Place For Nobles

Lisa and Elina were trying to appear like nobles while trying to hide the fact that they were princesses, which was why Lisa went with a wig in the first place.

They walked into a clothing store and Ning waited for nearly half an hour before the two princesses could finish choosing 10 sets of clothes, including ones for Reever. Now that he was a prince consort, he needed to stop dressing like a commoner. 

Once they were done, they left the area and went to another place at the behest of Elina. It was a jewelry shop with many different kinds of necklaces, rings, earrings, bracelets, etc hanging on the wall in full display. There was a high-ranking Aether user there at all times to protect the store.

Elina seemed to really like the jewelry and started buying a bunch of it. Lisa, after having lived as a peasant for the last 10 or so years, didn't really care much for such materialistic needs.

After many requests from Elina, she bought a simple-looking necklace that also doubled as a storage device at a rather hefty price. Her heart bled when she saw the price, but as a princess the amount she had to spend was astronomical. Such that she could buy thousands of such jewelry in a year, and still have enough to buy it all over again.

Due to Lisa's insistence, they didn't stay in this place for a very long time and moved on to a food market. 

"What are we doing here?" Elina asked, looking around at what she would call a low-status market.

"Just buying some food ingredients," Lisa said, walking around the market. As Elina and the rest watched, she bought many things such as flour, vegetables, rice, etc. 

She also bought quite a lot of spices before she was done. 

"What are you planning to do with that?" Elina asked.

"I've been wanting to cook for a while. After coming here, I've been missing my bakery, so I will cook this food," Lisa said.

"Why did you buy the ingredients then? There should be a lot of ingredients back at the palace," Elina said.

"Yes, but that's the royal pantry. I wouldn't know how much trouble I would create if I wanted to use as many ingredients as I wanted. So, it's better that I just buy what I will be using," Lisa said.

"But… isn't that a lot? You bought nearly 25 kilos of flour alone. How much food will you be able to make with that? You aren't planning to feed the entire palace, are you?" Elina asked.

"Of course not," Lisa said. "I will donate the food I make. There are less fortunate out there that can use the food."

"You've changed, sister," Elina said. 

"Of course," Lisa said. "I've lived as a commoner for over 10 years. While I may have been one of the more fortunate ones, I've seen how the less fortunate have to suffer each and every day just to fill their stomach."

"I know I can't change that, at least not with the status I have right now, but I can hopefully fill their stomach for even if it's just one day now," Lisa said.

Reever smiled when he heard his wife say that, and also got a little sad at the same time. 

"What's wrong?" Ning asked, seeing his sad face. 

"Oh, it's nothing," Reever said. "I'm just sad remembering that I won't be able to go help those people in the deserts now. I hope they find a way to get their food somehow with me not around."

"I see," Ning said. He made a mental note to go let those people know later on that they could go to the city on their own and sell their stuff for more money. 

"Alright, I'm done," Lisa said after buying the final ingredient from the market. "Let's go back now."

"What?" Elina cried out. "It's barely 2 in the afternoon. We still have a lot of time before we need to leave," she said. 

"Where do you want to go now then?" Lisa asked. 

Elina thought for a while, and said, "There's a place opened up not far from here where only the nobles are allowed to visit. Do you want to go there?" 

"Hmm? What is this place?" Lisa asked. Reever got curious too. 

"Hehe, I bet you've never visited a place like this before since it was only established in the capital two years ago and took the high ranking people by a storm," Elina described.

"What are you talking about?" Lisa asked.

"Come, it's better to show you," Elina said and took the lead. They walked out of the place and went to a location that was a bit more… wealthy. 

After walking for just 3 minutes, they reached a large building with flashy lights on it even during the day. 

Ning looked up at the building and read the name, "JERRY'S DELUXE CASINO?" 

Elina was trying to show off a casino place.

"What is this fancy place?" Lisa asked.

"It's a casino, sister," Elina said.

"What's a casino, sister-in-law?" Reever asked with his head tilted upwards to look at all the words in the building. 

"It's a place where you can earn a lot of money using very little money," Elina said.

"It's a gambling place. You put in your money and play against other players or the casino itself and see if you can win money," Ning explained from behind.

"Gambling? Did you take us to a gambling den?" Lisa suddenly got angry. 

"No! This is more sophisticated than that," Elina explained. "Come on in, you will understand when you go inside."

Elina walked first and walked in. The guards of the casino seemed to recognize her and let her in without question. 

"They're with me," she explained to them and they let Reever and Lisa enter as well. 

"What about the guards?" Reever asked.

"Since miss has so many people in her group, you may take in 1 servant," the guard explained.

Without even deciding amongst themselves who would get to go in, Ning walked into the casino. 

"Let's go in."
