Arthur and Ruby were still telling stories, Rias got up and went straight to them not forgetting she was holding her sword.
" What ?." Rias shouted to see Ruby who was not wearing clothes, her body was only wrapped in a red robe.
Rias immediately ran to close Arthur's eyes with a jolted hand Arthur was surprised to get Rias' panicked reaction.
From the beginning Arthur had seen it all, he assumed that Ruby was still a child so he did not care.
" Mister, did you see it from earlier?." asked Rias full of probes.
Arthur only shook his head, if he answered it, Rias' chatty mouth could not stop talking.
Ruby just silently did not understand what the two people before her were talking about, Ruby and Rias were only 3 years different.
Rias tidied up Ruby's red cloak so that her tiny body shape was not seen by Arthur.
Arthur tells Rias that Ruby will come with them, "Have you won?" asked Rias in light of the promise between the winners.
" He, should you take care of him?" said Arthur.
Rias is very happy, has a little sister that she can tell stories to.
" Let's go back to the town of Terion." Arthur invites the two of them back to the city to buy Ruby body armor so that the chest and bottom are not visible, if people see him Arthur can be considered a pervert.
They ride a horse-drawn carriage given by the village chief of Newdia, making it easier for Arthur to travel casually.
Arthur immediately invites Ruby and Rias to the Blue Sky Association in the city of Terion because only the store treats Arthur well.
" Welcome, Mr. Arthur." said Derton when he recognized Arthur.
Derton looked at Ruby quite surprised to see a little girl carrying a large scythe in her hand, He frowned realizing Arthur was carrying a good slave, he thought Arthur was showing off a new slave to him.
" It's not so!" said Arthur quickly as Derton spoke of himself.
" Sir is very fond of little girls, yes" said Derton.
" No." Arthur was a little upset by Derton's words even though he knew Derton was just bothering him.
Ruby's stomach rang when she saw the food on Derton's table, when they came Derton wanted to have breakfast with the Bread he had down from home.
" Mister, I'm hungry" Ruby said innocently.
Derton picked up the Bread that was on the table when he knew the little girl in front of him was hungry.
" If you want, you can eat it" Derton told Ruby.
" Thank you." Ruby quickly took the Bread from Derton's hand
" Hey, Ruby." Call Rias, she thinks what Ruby did is rude.
Derton knew who the little red-hooded girl Arthur was carrying, and he still thought Arthur was showing off Ruby.
" Is there any clothing that matches her?" asked Arthur pointing at Ruby with a glance.
Arthur to the clothing store in the city, he looks for clothes that match Ruby, Arthur looks for magic clothes that are not easily torn when fighting.
Actually Arthur has some magic clothes that he made himself but the size he has is nothing that matches Ruby's small body.
" Welcome" said the shopkeeper, he immediately ran up to Ruby.
" Well, cute. She's so pretty like an angel, huh." The shopkeeper pinched Ruby's cheek.
" You don't know if he's a terrible little monster." Arthur sat there looking at them.
Arthur stood up, "I want clothes that don't break easily while fighting monsters."
The woman who owns the clothing store understands that Arthur wants magic clothes that are resistant to attack, "do you have magic threads?" asked the woman.
" Magic thread ?."
Arthur first heard the name, because he usually made clothes directly using magic while the shop owner's women worked manually.
" To make magic clothes requires magic threads." the owner's woman tells.
" So it can only be made on order?" asked Rias who heard the conversation.
The shopkeeper woman had no stock of magic threads, she asked Arthur to look for magic threads in the magic tool shop.
Arthur returns to the capital, he goes to the grandmother who gave Rias a magic book. They got there already afternoon trip from the city of Terion using the horse took quite a long time.
Arthur immediately approached the shopkeeper's grandmother and asked about the magic thread, he wanted to buy it.
" I did accept the order for the magic thread making, but the magic stone used to make the thread was not there so I could not take the order" said the grandmother looking at the thread making tool.
" What magic stones are expensive?." asked Arthur when he found out the shop owner's grandmother did not have magic stones to make threads.
" Not only expensive, but magic stones are very rare" said the shop owner's grandmother, she will urge the merchants in the city to immediately provide the magic stone.
" Magic stone, huh ?." Arthur recalled that he had kept a lot of the stones he had gotten from the underground labyrinth.
Arthur asked the shopkeeper's grandmother to give an example of the shape of a magic stone, she explained the shape and characteristics of the stone.
Magic stones can only be found in magic stone mines and now they are difficult to find since the attack of otherworldly monsters.
The magic suit fits Ruby perfectly, as she does not have the soul power to fight.
Arthur imagines the shape of the magic stone and takes the magic stone from the storage space, Arthur immediately shows the stone that he considers to resemble the characteristics of the magic stone mentioned by the shop owner's grandmother.
