I bought hats with ears as a gift

---

“Sebastian couldn’t move right away after getting off of Rahle. He’s fragile!”
“…Lady Tilura…I’m sorry.”
“Ah… Well, it cannot be helped…haha…”
“Wuff.”

Tilura was quick to expose her butler when I asked.
As they were just going around to the east gate, it should not have taken too long. But I suppose Sebastian felt a little sick.
I doubted Rahle had gotten carried away…but perhaps there was a little aerial acrobatics.

As for Sebastian, he seemed to have recovered after walking through the town.
I had also given him herbs, but they wouldn’t solve everything… Maybe I could make something to prevent him from getting sick.

“Welcome! Ah, Mr. Takumi and Lady Tilura!”
“Mr. Halton. It’s been a while.”

We then entered Mr. Halton’s store.
Nicholas and the guards watched over Leo, who was still being petted by the people.

“Liza. I see you are wearing that hat. I’m glad you like it.”
“Yes, it’s very cute!”
“It’s nice to see a customer enjoy our products. So, what can I do for you today?”
“Uh, do you have another hat like this one?”
“Yes, we do. We made more since the last time you were here.”

Rosalie, the daughter of the Range village chief, had liked the hat a lot.
As she had likely bought one on the way back, perhaps its reputation was spreading in the village.

“I want to take some to Range village as gifts.”
“Ah, for the children. I see. I will prepare them right away then.”
“Also… Would it be possible to repair Liza’s hat, as it is getting a little worn out?”
“Of course, right away.”
“Thank you. See, Liza?”
“Thank you!”

I wanted the children over there to be friends with Liza. And so it might help her earn some points with them.
Well, I also wanted to give them the hats so as to not draw attention to their differences. It might make them less likely to discriminate against her… But perhaps it wasn’t that simple.
Still, she might be able to befriend them more quickly.

“Wow! It looks so nice! Thank you.”
“Not at all. We are just happy that you like it so much.”

Liza’s hat was fixed in just a few minutes.
As it wasn’t washed, there was still dirt on it. However, it still looked much better than before.

“Here, Tilura.”
“I can have one too?”
“Yes. You seemed to have wanted one too. And since you worked so hard in the forest, I got it as a reward.”
“So you could tell, Mr. Takumi. Though, I wasn’t the only one who worked hard in the forest…but thank you!”
“Now we’re matching, sister Tilura!
“Yes, we are!”

Mr. Halton had given me a bag that was filled with the hats, and so I took one out and gave it to Tilura.
She thanked me and put the hat on. Both Tilura and Liza were happy that they had matching hats now. It was good that they were having fun.

“Papa, you put one on too!”
“…Huh?”
“You too, Sebastian.”
“…What?”
“…”

At first, I didn’t understand…
They wanted me and Sebastian to wear hats with ears on as well?
