Evelynn didnât expect to be in such a situation.
She also didnât expect to be surrounded by a group of Goblins, Gnomes, and Houndhead Men to come up with a plan.
âAccording to my skirt-chasing experience, if Sherlieâs not a fool, with Evelynnâs figure and appearance, any dress can be a killer!â
âGet lost, you trash. If any dress makes the cut, why would we go through all the trouble?â
âThe important thing isnât the dress. Isnât it the conversation? Though appearance is crucial, with Evelynnâs killer looks, a dress is only a bonus. If she cleans her face, I feel Sherlie wonât be single after tomorrow night.â
âSherlie is already with Brainiac. What do you mean by single?â
Evelynn was confused by the incessant chattering of the gamers.
But some of them were serious in helping Evelynn for their Strange Encounter Mission.
Two Goblins were using tape measures to obtain Evelynnâs measurements. Due to the difference in height, they had to stand on chairs and tables that were stacked together.
From the content of the gamersâ chat, these Goblins were dual dressmakers both in the game and outside of the game. They were supposedly designers for a private fashion label.
Though Evelynn didnât understand what they meant by inside and outside the game, seeing their proficiency, Evelynn trusted them.
Before making the dress, they asked Evelynn some questions.
âDo you have a favorite color?â
âEr... no.â
âIs there any color that you donât like?â
âYellow. I donât like yellow.â
âWhat about style? Do you know what style Sherlie likes?â
âThat, Sherlie is...â
âLord Sherlock.â
âNot very sure. Lord Sherlock has been dressed as a gentleman, and you should be addressing him as Lord Sherlock, not Sherlie.â
âI understand.â
âPerhaps he prefers the virtuous lady style?â
âHmm, thatâs likely. How about adding a bit of the girl next door style? Sherlie looks younger than Evelynn.â
âYounger?â
Both Goblins discussed Evelynnâs age without restraint. How dare they alluded that Evelynn was older. She had just graduated, whereas Sherlock was a Dungeon Lord.
They didnât offer a chance for Evelynn to explain. After taking the measurements, they proceeded to Winterfell to make the dress, as Eternal Kingdom didnât have Magical Sewing Machines.
Besides the dress, the gamers also offered other suggestions for the date.
âYou have to know dating etiquette. As a lady, I have to remind you of certain things.â
âHave to be late for a date? No, no, no, itâs no longer in vogue! The girl must be intelligent and present her good points. What does a guy like in a girl? Bring her out to show off! Thatâs why you have to doll yourself up and attract the attention of everyone. When Sherlie arrives, present your best angle. Then he will overhear the passersbyâs compliments of you...â
âWah! Sheâs beautiful. Is she waiting for someone?â
âWaiting for her boyfriend? Oh my god, Iâm so envious!â
âThatâs frustrating! Why donât I have such a girlfriend?â
âI want to have such a girlfriend! Iâm willing to do anything!â
âThatâs right! This kind of conversation. Sherlie will feel proud and become your slave!â
âGosh! Thatâs how it works! Thatâs the reason Arthur Bro didnât propose to me!â
âOh? Sister Vanas? Did you skip too many steps?â
The gamers were having a fun time, while Evelynn was in a state of confusion.
There wasnât much time since her date was tomorrow.
...
Sherlock was dressed in a black wool coat that matched with a white and blue lined shirt, a pair of straight trousers, and black polished leather shoes.
He was dressed in gentleman attire, but not because it was a date with Evelynn. He had to be presentable when going out with a girl, that was the principle.
âTsk, youâre so handsome today, Lord Sherlock. If the gamers see you, theyâll spread strange rumors on the forum,â Bru said to Sherlock as he walked out of the door.
âThey have already spread strange rumors.â
Sherlock looked at the surrounding gamers who had been waiting outside for him.
It wasnât hard for Sherlock to guess their intentions. They wanted to report his whereabouts to Evelynn.
Sherlock didnât understand. Her inviting him to the drama performance was a gesture of gratitude, so why were they so excited?
Sherlock exerted his dominance to restrain the gamers, then he walked towards the Teleport Portal.
The Drama Theater wasnât far from the Teleport Portal Main Hall. He hailed a Hades Carriage, and the journey took him ten minutes.
The Drama Theaterâs entrance was filled with many guests, and many creatures were buying tickets at a counter. This was a highly anticipated performance as it depicted the story of Michelangelo.
To the inhabitants of the Underworld, he was a hero.
Sherlock walked to the entrance and immediately noticed Evelynn, who was being discussed by the crowd.
Compared to her usual conservative style, Evelynn wore a short skirt that was above the knees, and her upper body was clothed in a light blue tube top that revealed her shoulders and back.
Not much material was used for the tube top, and while the quality of the material was good, it was without any special patterns. The design consisted of layers and layers of folds.
Evelynn also wore a pair of stilettos. The fashion style attracted the attention of the Underworld residents, and they whispered to each other.
âWhatâs with this Succubus? Why did she dress like this?â
âThough itâs not inappropriate, the style is strange.â
âVery ugly...â
âShe looks beautiful, but why is her dress so ugly? Did she give up on herself?â
âIs she waiting for someone? Her boyfriend? If I was her boyfriend, Iâd never appear.â
âItâs embarrassing. Is this a public punishment?â
âYoung creatures nowadays... tsk, tsk...â
Evelynnâs face wasnât red, it was a deep green.
Sherlock didnât pretend not to know Evelynn. Instead, he walked directly to her. When Sherlock appeared, the crowd gave way and kept quiet. Many female creatures even looked jealous when they saw the superior Devil. However, it wasnât because he was handsome, it was because he was Sherlock.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The Dungeon Lord of Eternal Kingdom! Who didnât know him?
âLord Sherlock...â
Evelynn lowered her head. If there was a hole, she would hide in it without hesitation.
âThe dress is bold and a little weird, but itâs not ugly, Evelynn.â
Sherlock smiled and extended his hand to Evelynn, and magical rings surrounded her body.
âLord Sherlock?â
Evelynn looked strangely at the magical rings engulfing her. As for the creatures who had gossiped about her, they went into a daze and then went about doing their own things.
âIâm making you less conspicuous.â
Though she wasnât sure what Mana Skill it was, after the creatures in the crowd shifted their gazes, Evelynn felt much better.
They chatted happily as they went into the Drama Theater.
The gamers who were spying from a distance frowned.
âWhat happened? Why is this game not following the norms?â
âThere is absolutely no problem with my design! The problem is with the game producer! D*mn the game producer!â
âJust put all of the blame on the game producer!â
They ranted.
