The store was filled with many clothes of the same type. Alissa was once again bringing clothes sets back and forth. In the end, I picked out a set of seven outfits and one set of armor. They were all the same style since there was not much to choose from for a girl when it came to clothes that were not dresses. I was quite happy with my selection. The colors ranged from white to hues of blue and even some black. I was never big on very colorful clothing, to begin with. But at least I felt more comfortable. Although I did need to wear a garter belt to keep my legging up. But at least I did not feel too exposed. The shorts were indeed short but they were not so short that it exposed anything beyond my thighs. With a white shirt and a thin white with blue trim long sleeve overcoat that only reached my waist, I was able to move much more freely.

    "Rei, let''s go to the weapons shop and get you a sword." Able suddenly said. His gaze was as warm as the sun as he looked at me. But I kinda wished he would not look at me like that.

    Although his love interest ranking on my screen had gone up to six, I still felt as if it was all just a passing moment for him. Eventually, he and Alissa will fall in love and that will be that. I might be numb to the things that deal with romance but I was not completely oblivious to it. With the way, Able had been looking at me as I tried on different clothes it was pretty obvious his expression was full of love for me. Don''t get me wrong, I felt touched but it was not along the lines of the game… I can only act as if I didn''t know so my heart won''t get hurt when things begin to fall in line. Though In a way I felt sad because Able was an excellent man. Although he was young now he grew up to be a man who was the head of the magic knights of the kingdom and was very upstanding and compassionate. If I could even find someone as good as him, that would love me and care for me deeply, I would be the happiest girl in the world. Maybe I can just enjoy the moment?

    "Rei?"

    My thoughts were broken when Able''s handsome face came close to mine. I blushed and quickly backed away a few steps before nodding my head. "Then, let''s do as you say. "

    Able smiled and excitedly said. "Good we will find a sword that fits you well!"

    Alissa looked at me then Able and a pout formed on her face. "No fair… you only picked the clothes that Able selected!"

    It''s not that I did such a thing on purpose. It was mainly because everything Alissa brought over was a little too revealing… But I felt bad since she was trying to pick out something for me so I thought for a moment before saying: "Then how about picking out some hair accessories for me?"

    As soon as I said this, Alissa ran over and hugged my arm. She seemed to be happy that I was willing to wear something she picked out. I of course choose accessories since there was no way they would make me look like a slut. Alissa had been very forthright with her feelings towards me which made me feel a little uncomfortable. At first, I just thought it was a passing moment for her but after watching her drool over the thought of me changing I realized just how accurate the system was. Sadly I could never return Alissa''s feelings but that did not mean I was not willing to be her friend. I figured eventually she would end up changing her target to Able or one of the other male leads as time passed by.

    But as I thought about it I wondered what made Alissa begin to like me anyway. And that was when a scene came to mind from Magical Love. There was a scene where Alissa was in dire straights fighting two kidnappers when Able jumped off a building to come to her aide. It was then that she began to develop feelings for him. That meant… As I thought back to how I beat up the two kidnappers who Alissa was confronting at that time and let out a sigh. I seemed to have stolen Able''s event… On top of that, her interest grew even more when I tried to protect her from the fireball. "Life can be a pain..."

    "Did you say something?" Alissa looked up at me from her arm hugging position.

    "Ahh, nothing. Let''s go!" I said, pulling Alissa and Able along with me.

    I would have to say one thing at this time is that I am very lucky to meet these two. They have really treated me kindly. Me who came to this world and inhabited this body was truly out of sorts when coming here. I figured I would have to fight tooth and nail inside the Baron estate, but thanks to meeting Able I am now free from that place. I guess I really should just enjoy the moment. Maybe I will understand what love is. Heartbreak is also part of love, right? I already know that Alissa and Able may fall for each other but he was not the only male lead. There may be a chance for me to be with Able in the end. But if things really do turn out how it does in the game and Alissa falls for Able then I will step aside and allow them to be together. Whether I get hurt or not. That is just how life is. It will be a good lesson for me and will bring me closer to knowing what love is.

    At that moment I had no idea that in the future my love life would be more complicated than I could ever have imagined.
