Fitting session – Women’s edition

Then, next day

We were called to visit the imperial castle

However, the emperor didn’t appear

Instead, I was hit by Forte. As for the reason

「Jiraaaaaaa!? Why weren’t you at home yesterday!?」

「So what about it!?」

I only had a drinking party with Gashi and the other though

「What is fun with a congratulation party with only men!?」

「It was unexpectedly fun though. I was at ease」

「That is not the case!? If you were at home then an even more enjoyable event might happen!」

Forte herself is being evasive, but I understand

It seems like a messenger from Forte came to our house yesterday. It was about some important matters like having a congratulation meal as both of us have become the Twelve Apostles

My parents told me after I returned from the drinking party with my buddies

「Inviting for a meal is fine, but it is hard for me if you come to tell me at the appointed day. I also have my own plan, you know?」

「Uuuu～……!!」

Forte’s newly grown dog ears hang down dejectedly

After receiving the beast piece, she has plenty ways to express her emotion

「I’m sorry for being absence although you invited me……. How about 『Another day』? If it’s fine for you though……!?」

「Really!? How about tonight!?」

Why are you so impatient?

「Hee, interesting story you have there」

「Gyaaa!? Saraka!?」

Saraka appeared despite not being mentioned

「Free meal is good, especially if it’s your treat. I will gladly participate」

「Who even asked you!? Not to mention, whose treat!? Don’t just decide arbitrarily!」

「Oh my, so it’s splitting the cost? Isn’t the princess of Lobos tribe stingy? What do you think, Selen?」

Spreading the fire intentionally?

「Eh!? A dinner party with Forte Onee-chan!? I will go, go, go!!」

「No, Selen, you know!? It’s more meaningful if there are just Jira and I……, it’s a critical moment for me to truly become your sister-in-law……! Ah fine! Let’s enjoy it together!!」

「「Yay」」

As expected, when Selen is about to cry, complete surrender is the only choice

Forte is also extremely weak to my sister

「And you, don’t try to slip in during the turmoil!」

「Eh?」

And Saraka’s invitation was firmly rejected

「Then, why are we being called today?」

It’s not just to have a skit with the beauties here, right?

「The emperor, who summoned us, doesn’t appear. What in the world is going on here?」

「His Majesty the Emperor won’t come due to the government affairs. I will take care of you today」

The one who said so is a woman wearing a beautiful dress, worthy to be called a 『civil officer』

「I am called Simonhart. I belong to the department that oversee all equipment of the empire」

「Equipment?」

「Today, I was honored to be given the order from his Majesty the Emperor to prepare the exclusive battle costume for the ladies and gentlemen of the Twelve Apostles」

「Battle costume?」

Selen jumped up and down while saying 『Waah, new clothes』

Forte and Saraka smirked as if they understood

「I see, it’s new clothes for the top executives, isn’t it? His Majesty the emperor is very good at intimidation」

「『The Imperial Guardian’s Twelve Apostles』 is the strongest fighting force, representing the empire. I was instructed to provide to you the outfit that suits your position」

「I strongly agree with that thinking. Especially Jira, do you intend to behave as the Twelve Apostles with that outfit?」

I was given the cold shoulder?

「Is it no good?」

「Of course it is no good. That costume is just casual wear, isn’t it?」

That is true, but…

After graduating from the training camp and becoming a regular soldier, I had received a military uniform. But I was wondering “What to do with the regular rank uniform after being chosen as the Twelve Apostles?” so I chose the casual wear for today

It was bought from an inexpensive clothing shop in the neighborhood

「As the top executives of the empire, not only your costumes should be functional to withstand the battle, but the appearance should also be solemn. Just like Grey Ryuuga-sama and Wartaiga-sama」

That means those two wore those armors regularly?

「Sound nice! In that case, my new clothes must be super flashy! The clothes must glitter like gold! And must look casual despite that!」

「I’m fine as long as it’s cute!!」

Saraka and Selen are looking forward to the new clothes

It seems like the girls love dressing up, no matter what world it is

「The reason you are summoned today is because I wish for your cooperation in making these costumes. First, I wish to ask each of you about your idea of what kind of costume you want to wear. The intention of the wearer is the most important thing after all」

「Needless to say, the fighting method of each of the Twelve Apostles is unique. Without proper discussion, the clothes may obstruct the wearer during the fight in the worst case」

「It’s as you said. And one more matter, not less important than that」

「Eh?」

「It’s to take your measurements」

The equipment teacher Simonhart-san takes out a tape measure

「Knowing the size of the wearer is the first step in making good clothes. I would like to take your correct measurements here. Height, shoulder width, waist, leg’s length, and more……!」

「Eh?」

「Don’t tell me……!?」

For some reason, Forte and Saraka become noisy

「For the ladies, I would like to take even more detailed measurements. We can’t replicate your beautiful silhouette unless we know about your proportions more strictly!」

「That is, perhaps……!?」

「Of course I will measure them. Bust measurement」

「Bust!?」

「Waist measurement」

「Waist!?」

「Hip measurement too」

「Hip!?」

The sense of urgency of the women camp is increasing

Rather, accelerating……!?

「Yay, body measurement. It’s great if my height increases this year!」

Among them, only Selen was being carefree

「Wait! Hold up! Today is not good! At least 3 days later, no, a week later!?」

Forte refuses in a panic for some reasons

「You are wrong! I am not worry about the binge eating last night. Anyhow, the me today is not the real me! I will change into my ideal figure 1 week later!」

「Please stop the useless struggle. Your figure won’t change that easily in one week」

On the other hand, the clothes maker-san is calm

I’m sure she has kept company with such unsightly customers before。

「Besides, what we are look is the most natural figure of the wearer. You can’t keep the unnatural body shape for a long time. The costume we make with great pains would be like a tight boneless ham in that case」

「I won’t become that fat!!」

The women’s heated argument unfolds

「For the most accurate measurement, please take off your clothes. I’m not telling you to strip everything, but please let your body bare as much as possible……」

「I can’t be helped, I understand……！」

When Forte is about to unfasten the clothes she is wearing……。

Our eyes met

Perfectly

「What are you looking, pervert!?」

「I am sorry!?」

She’s right!

Why did I calmly observe a girl taking off her clothes!?

「No good, no good! Something like that is not good, unless it’s after the marriage ceremony! Even if it’s in the mood, a girl must not expose her body before the marriage!」

Forte immediately close the opened chest part while blushing

That expression suits a girl of her age

「I am sorry, but can you step outside, Jira? I must not expose my body to a friendly gentleman, not to mention a girl’s most secret place would be exposed later……!?」

「What are you doing, Forte? Do it quickly」

「wh..aaaaaaaaaaaaat!?」

Forte made a strange voice due to Saraka’s eccentricity

A girl of marriageable age has taken off all of her clothes and become naked

「I said it’s not necessary to be naked……!?」

「You need to take the most accurate measurements to make the best clothing, right? Then the most natural figure is the best?」

Saying so, Saraka puffed her abundant breasts with pride

And now, nothing is covering those large breasts

「Are you an idiot!? Hide them a bit, will you!?」

In a hurry, Forte tries to hide Saraka’s breasts and the important part below

From my line of sight mainly

「Why? It’s normal to expose one’s chests in the village of Hanuma tribe」

「This is the empire! Get used to its custom a bit!」

「Hmm, the dog of the grassland is acting self-important! Ah, I see, you got used to live in the city, and was worry about your drooping belly?」

「It’s not drooping!!」

「Don’t worry, I will properly tell Jira the numeral measurements here. Oh right, how about having a match? You give up on the 1st match, so it’s 2 win 1 lost for me!」

Where and where and where did you compete against each other?

「Jira!!」

Forte shouted

「How long do you intend to stay here!? This is the sanctuary of the maidens! It’s death penalty if you enter without permission!!」

「Then excuse me」

I ran away immediately
