Chapter 32 (1/2)

After their arrival in the kingdom, Shin and Irene separated to prepare each of them.

Irene had run away with excitement, which made her really beautiful and cute.​​

At the sight of the direction Irene was heading, Shin could guess that Irene was heading towards the shopping and commercial streets, probably to buy clothes or something else.

Shin didn't care any more than that, because he already had to choose for himself and since he had never been on a date, he didn't know what to wear.

Especially since the customs of dress were different from those of the Earth and he had to adapt.

He hurried back to the palace to return to his room.

He had about 3 hours to prepare what should be enough.

*PAM*

Slamming the door behind him, he went to sit at the end of his bed.

”What should I wear?” Shin wondered.

”A suit? No, too formal and I doubt it's a normal outfit for this place.”

Shin continued to try to dig his head but after a good half hour, he still had no idea and finally went home in a simple outfit.

The ”system”

Shin asked the system to respond to his wishes, but received it a few seconds later.

That's what I call fast service.

He had basic white sneakers, plain black shorts with small straps on both sides, a white t-shirt with a green flame pattern and a small black jacket that was quite light.

Well yes, it was the summer season, so the temperature outside was quite high.

So Shin thought that a nice summer outfit like this was the right thing to wear.

It was not flashy and not too modern, perfect to fit the codes of the Fairy Tail era.

This outfit gave Shin a cooler, more casual side to his usual outfit that could seem a little more noble.

A little hour of preparation later and in the meantime, Shin was prepared for his appointment although nervous.

He was hoping to make a good impression, not ruin everything and have a good day.

With a nervous step, Shin arrived at the exit of the palace.

When he arrived a few meters from the exit, his eyes were averted and drawn to his left.

In front of him was surely the most beautiful scene and the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life.

Real or fictitious confusion.

In front of him, a few meters against the wall, was Irene, with her head down, waiting with a staggering impatience in her eyes and a fairy-tale smile.

Her clothes were simple, a one-piece white dress that went down to her knees and beautiful brown sandals.

There were no decorations, jewelry or beads to go with it, only a simple, ordinary white dress.

Her long scarlet hair reached her waist, loose and free as the wind, spreading over her shoulders and back, releasing a soft and delicate image.

Shin's mind had become empty and his attention was focused only on Irene, all around him had disappeared and only she was left to support his world.

All that remained was this face and his whole being, which was even more illusory than a dream.

No light helped him or presented itself as if he was covered with shame in relation to this celestial one who supported the colors and beauty of the world.

Irene, who was against the wall, slipped her hair behind her ear, adding a fatal charm.

Then she realized the motionless presence on the side.

Moving her gaze, she fell on the appearance and the person for whom she was dressed like this.

When she saw him in his entirety, her heart began to beat in a frantic and frantic race.

She could only blush at the sight of Shin in a casual outfit like this, it was the first time she had seen him like this and it didn't look so bad on her.

What's more, Shin's face and expression only made her blush even more.

For several minutes the two of them were standing and did not move a finger while he was lost in their thoughts and remained stoic looking at the other.

Shin was the first to come to his senses and when he saw Irene in the same state as he was, he decided to call out to her to get her out of it.

”Are you ready?” asked a thoughtful Shin.

”Yes,” Irene nodded.

Then both smiling and in a good mood leave for the city to enjoy their day together.

First, they walked around the city a little randomly while chatting until a very specific and known smell of Shin passed in front of his nose.

*Sniff* *Sniff* *Sniff*

Shin couldn't help but sniff the air discreetly to capture the attractive and appetizing smell.

Unfortunately, his discretion was not very good as his action was captured by Irene who was looking at him confused.

”Sorry, I smelled the smell of the skewers,” replied Shin who was scratching her head embarrassed by his action.

Irene laughed softly when she saw Shin's embarrassed face but was happy that he was relaxed enough and not too serious.

”So let's go eat some,” Irene said gently.

”Are you sure?” Shin asked, surprised by Irene's answer.

”Of course I'm sure.”

”Thank you,” replied Shin with a smile, acting like a child who knew he was going to eat his favorite food.

When Irene and Shin went to the kebab stand, Shin asked for 4, 2 each, and chatted with the granny who ran the stand.

Since he was at Dragnof, he used to go to this booth a lot and it became a habit so he and the grandmother became kind of friends.

Irene had been surprised at the familiarity with which he was talking to the grandmother.

She was happy to see that Shin was gentle and kind to the locals and was not an arrogant ȧsshole who took advantage of his identity.

The grandmother gave the skewers to Shin who thanked her.

”Thank you obaa-san”

”You're welcome, you two are cute together, you make a lovely couple.”

Irene and Shin couldn't help but blush at the grandmother's remark.

They looked at each other and quickly turned away because of the embarrassment.

Shin explained to the grandmother that they were not a couple while Irene repeated the same thing in her head.

'She said that we made a cute couple' She was holding her face with both hands while she imagined a lot of things with Shin and smiled stupidly.

After explaining, they went on their way and landed in a small park on a bench to enjoy their spicy and flavored kebab.

”You really like this skewer” added Irene amused to see how quiet Shin was to enjoy his skewer and his face blossomed.

”Hehe, it's the first food I've eaten in a long time so I was seduced right away.”

”Where were you before that so you couldn't eat food?” asked Irene curious about her past and daily life as a mythical beast.
