A Highest Rank in Another World!

Walking down the main street, they soon came upon a clothing store run by a woman with cat ears. She was a beautiful woman who had light pink hair that went down to her shoulders.

But even though she ran a clothing store, Luna wondered why she was wearing such simple clothes.

It was a not very big store. It had a window displaying some nice dresses and some shirts and pants that seemed to be of quality.

Inside the store, there was a big wooden counter where the woman was. And all around there were some hangers made of wood that put all the clothes on display. Not only that but there was also a table where shoes and sandals were placed.

Luna and Ward seemed quite amazed at the number of clothes inside the store. They walked on while looking everywhere.

The woman with cat ears behind the counter looked at them while tilting her head curiously just like a small cat. Her tail was also wagging, she was excited to receive the two.

"Excuse me, I would like to buy some clothes for me and my little brother" She pulled Ward forward and the woman looked at him and analyzed him.

His cat ears wiggled along with his tail as the woman ran to the back of the store without saying anything.

"This here will look great on him." She came back carrying a few pieces of clothing and placed them on the counter. Luna looked at those clothes and seemed quite intrigued by them.

A black social shirt with a white design embroidered on the chest. The design looked very much like the sharp eyes of a hunting bird. Like a hawk or an eagle.

And besides the shirt, also had a gray jacket that was closed in the front by buttons. Luna touched the jacket and noticed that it was made of a material very similar to jeans.

"That's nice." She picked up a pair of black pants with some gray details it is on the counter.

"All right, you can come here to try it on." The woman snatched the pants out of Luna's hands and picked up the other clothes on the counter. She then grabbed Ward's hand and began to drag him away.

"Ah." He looked worriedly at Luna, but she just smiled bitterly and let her brother be taken away.

It didn't take more than five minutes before Ward came back wearing his new clothes.

"That looked great on you!" Luna exclaimed in surprise as she gave small claps. Ward, on the other hand, his face was red with embarrassment, probably because it was an unknown woman who helped him change clothes.

"As I imagined, that turned out great." The saleswoman seemed in awe of Ward's appearance. She was more in awe than she should have been since she was starting to get extremely excited.

"All right, how much would that outfit cost?"

"The complete set would be 1 silver coin." The woman said with her finger up and looked at Luna with a smile on her face.

"1 SILVER COIN?" Luna shouted without thinking.

"Hey, don't yell in here, all right?" Because of this, the saleswoman glared at Luna, and the girl could do nothing but remain silent.

She then looked at Ward who looked worried because of the price of the clothes.

'1 Silver coin is all we have. Should we look for cheaper clothes? No, but that outfit is so pretty.' She thought as she looked at Ward.

"Hey, Ward. Did you like that outfit?" Luna smiled at Ward.

The boy looked a little reluctant but nodded. He had liked that outfit, so Luna walked over to the woman and handed her the only silver coin she had.

"Sister, you don't need to do it! Let's just buy some cheaper clothes, all right?"

"It's okay. The one who was complaining about your clothes before was you, wasn't it? I like the clothes I'm using so you don't have to worry."

"But..."

"All right, let's go."

Ward took the clothes he was wearing earlier and put them into a bag that the saleswoman offered.

"Oh, and thanks for that. Maybe I'll come back here another day." Luna turned to the saleswoman and smiled.

"Come back again." Waving to Luna, the saleswoman turned and went behind the counter quietly.

After leaving the store, Luna and Ward walked around town a bit to get used to the place.

They saw some stores, crowded restaurants, bars full of drunks arguing and shouting in the middle of the morning, and many other things.

But what most caught their attention were the people who set up tents in the alleys between the buildings and lived right there.

Luna wondered if they would be one of those people if Yomu had not helped them.

"I have him to thank a lot for all this," Luna said aloud without realizing it.

"Hm?" Ward beside her tilted his head in confusion as he walked.

"It's nothing. It's lunchtime now, let's go back." Luna smiled and then walked towards the inn along with Ward. When they got there, lunch was already being served.

Quietly, they ate while talking about what to do from now on.

"I think I should join the guild. If I train a little I think I can fight."

"Are you crazy? You've never used a gun in your life." Ward said as he looked surprised at his sister, not believing what she had just said.

"I said I'm going to train. What am I going to do besides join the guild? It's not easy to get a job around here." 

"Well..."

Ward didn't know what to say after that, but fortunately, a person came to his rescue.

"Are you talking about employment? Are you thinking about joining the guild?" Raquel who had heard Luna's absurd statement approached the table of the two while keeping a gentle expression.

"Well, it's not easy to get a job. If I go to the guild I'm sure they will allow me to be an adventurer."

"They will, but... Are you sure you can do it? Are you sure you won't die while fighting? From what Ward said, you've never used a weapon in your life."

"And I said I can train, if I train I might be able to fight. I have enough strength."

"Haaa~~" Raquel sighed and then sat down together with the two.

"Idiot, you don't need to be an adventurer."

"But I do need money. And from what I've seen, being an adventurer makes a lot of money, so it's the perfect job."

"Only skilled adventurers will make a lot of money, you'll never get by on that just doing harvesting missions and stuff like that. That's the kind of mission that novices do."

"Have you been an adventurer before?"

"Oh, yes. Before I opened this inn I was a very capable adventurer. But I got tired of it, and as soon as I had enough money I invested in this business. Fortunately, it worked out."

"I see. But if I can't be an adventurer, what do I do to make money?"

"I can offer you a job, what do you think?"

"A job? Here?" Luna who heard this proposal felt her ears rise and her tail begin to wiggle.

"Yes. I'm having a hard time running the kitchen and serving customers. How would you like to work as a waitress? I'll pay you well and you can stay here with your brother while you work."

"CAN I?" Luna stood up excitedly.

"Sure." Raquel smiled.

Ward was a little startled at a smile coming from that fully made-up face, but Luna just thanked him deeply and started making some cute sounds as she jumped around in happiness.

The evening had already arrived and Luna was getting ready for tomorrow that would be her first day of work.

She was given an outfit by Raquel that was very simple, but it was a very characteristic waitress outfit. A somewhat long dress and a brown apron.

After placing her clothes hanging inside the closet, Luna got ready for bed.

Being so excited, she no longer even remembered the little demon that had appeared in the morning. Unlike Ward, who couldn't close his eyes and looked around the bedroom in fright.

But Luna didn't notice how her brother was.

While humming and smiling, she lay down on the bed and soon fell asleep.

Ward didn't want to wake her, so he stayed silent as he somehow tried to sleep.

[ Hey, Ward. ]

"Uh." With a strange voice, Ward startled and crawled under the blanket.

Soon after recovering from his fright, he decided to say something.

"What? You scared me!"

[ I'm sorry about that. It's just that I'd like to know why you're so afraid of me. ]

"Afraid of you?"

[ Yes, why are you so scared? I said I was your friend. ]

"I don't understand what you mean."

[ I'll try one more time, promise it won't get scared? ]

"What are you talking about?"

[Right. In five seconds get your head out from under the blanket and look at me. ]

"Look at you?"

[ Yes, look at me. ]

Ward swallowed his saliva and then slowly removed the blanket from his face.
