Chapter 796 Makeover

Chapter 796  Makeover

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Since they'd already spent the gold, and Emilia also looked so happy, Danielle could only sigh in defeat and accept that raising their 'little star' wasn't cheap. "Okay, okay. You look very cute. Now, can we move on to looking for things that will help us in the dungeon?"

Emilia shook her head quickly in denial. "Not yet!"

Rushing to the still-dazed Sylvia, she clung to the girl's arm coquettishly. "All those people were looking down on me earlier for wearing torn clothes and being so poor."

Her teammates wanted to refute that they were obviously just staring at her because it was hard to resist looking at such a pretty girl in torn clothes, but Emilia didn't give them the chance.

"So I want all of us to look pretty and dazzle their eyes till they're blind!"

Unlike the rest of the team, Crystal could tell that Emilia's decisions were far from being as naïve and willful as they appeared. Though even if that had been the case, it wouldn't make much of a difference in her choice.

She was obviously aware of the fact that Sylvia had been in a very complex mood since meeting Dolly again, and honestly, she couldn't blame the yellow-eyed girl. After all, if one of the crimson-haired girl's friends were to treat the 'little princess' like that, they'd be lucky if Emilia didn't climb onto their neck to pry Sylvia, Emilia still considered her a good friend now, and also an integral part of her team. So she thought cheering the other girl up their skull open to check what was wrong inside.

In comparison, the yellow-eyed heroine was taking it too well.

Plus, although she might not have many romantic feelings for Sylvia, Emilia still considered her a good friend now, and also an integral part of her team. So she thought cheering the other girl up was just right.

Everyone vaguely heard her exclaim 'Sylvia is next!' while dragging the taller girl into the boutique.

Crystal only shook her head with a smile as she followed after them. "Let's go quickly, or our princess will be mad."

Danielle and the other two, however, remained stuck on the spot.

Obviously, they were still trying to comprehend the fact that they'd be becoming Emilia's dress-up dolls next, and they didn't even know whether to be excited or scared.

After all, while Emilia seemed to love trying on different clothes and twirling around to show them off, that wasn't really the case for any of them. If anything, it was quite the opposite.

Except for Danielle, who loved taking care of her hairstyle too much, none of the other members of the 'Crimson Witches' had much interest in fashion. They were perfectly happy wearing whatever looked good to them at a casual glance. Their real interest was in playing games, after all.

But having known Emilia for so long, the three 'old friends' could only look at each other helplessly.

Crystal was probably right.

"Well, she's as stubborn as she's pretty, so there's no point in fighting it." Danielle sighed.

Nico shuddered. "Hope she makes up her mind quick."

Robin also pretended to agree, but internally, she was trying to decide how likely it was that she would be able to drag Emilia into the changing room under the pretext of not being able to figure out how her clothes worked.

Given how closely everyone guarded her usually, this might be one of the few times the two of them could be 'alone', after all. Even if she couldn't make anything special happen, Robin was still fairly confident in being able to make 'some' progress with Emilia.

Much to Danielle's surprise, it didn't actually take as 'nightmarishly long' as she first expected while surrendering to being Emilia's 'dress-up doll'. If anything, it was just the opposite.

While the crimson-haired beauty took care of their opinions and tried different things to see what they liked more, it seemed like she had some special talent for being able to figure out exactly what would suit each of them best.

She even took care not to 'replace' any of their good gear, and was able to 'transform' them just by making use of the available slots.

Of course, it helped that most of the outer clothing without stats and abilities could be 'used' as an accessory if every other slot was full. And none of them had reached even close to hitting the ten accessory limit.

By the time she was done, the 'Crimson Witches' had completely transformed from just an attractive team of girls to what looked like a heartthrob idol group. Even the 'NPCs' seemed to find it hard to resist looking twice from time to time.

Emilia, in particular, had gone 'all out', not even caring about how shameful her outfit might be. Though luckily she had been more considerate of the rest of her team.

Danielle could only sigh in relief at the fact that Emilia had picked the somewhat medieval noble girl look for her. 'In fact… it's not so bad to get a makeover. Our mindset was really disturbed before, and it's good to change things a little and cheer up.'

After looking around a little, she also realized that her idea of 'gear upgrade' before had been too optimistic.

It was true that their team had made a fortune by slaughtering the hordes of goblins, however, what was available in the market was actually quite limited.

Things that could be directly purchased usually came with some fancy effects depending on their price, but they all had their own drawbacks. Not to mention, unless they were highly compatible with some niche skill a player just happened to have, most of them were just for show.

As for things that were being sold on the player marketplace… well, the situation was even worse.

Not to mention that most of the gear was almost immediately grabbed by others at some ridiculous price, whatever was being sold was also laughably weaker than what they already had.

Instead of spending most of their gold on some 'trash' item, even Danielle would much rather spend some of it to cheer Emilia up.

'The only problem is… it's a little too distracting. That stupid Sylvia can't even keep her hands to herself…' Danielle frowned, then shook her head in denial.

She'd also had similar thoughts when Emilia first joined their team, but weren't they able to treat her normally now? Even Robin was no longer caught trying to molest the crimson-haired beauty as often.

'We'll probably get used to it soon. At most, I'll have to scold them a few times.' She thought.
