Empress: “...”
High Priestess: “May I ask what your field of research is?”
The Star: “No need to be so cautious, sweetie. My research direction isn't some state secret.”
The Star: “Big sister here is a tailor, and my amateur hobby is enchanting.”
Hiss—
Enchanting?
So she was an enchanter?
Lan Qingyou’s brow twitched.
This was a heavy hitter. The term had appeared once in Albert’s alchemy journal.
According to him, enchanters were second only to alchemists. No matter how much of a piece of junk something was, in the hands of an enchanter, it would turn from decay into wonder.
For Albert—a man so proud, someone who held alchemy in such high regard—to give such an evaluation, the profession definitely had to have its unique merits.
The others also had a moment of realization after seeing The Star’s ‘side hobby.’
Although some of them didn't have journals or notes from ‘predecessors’ like Lan Qingyou did to understand what an enchanter was, they all knew a thing or two about enchanting.
For instance, Magician, Wheel of Fortune, and High Priestess, who had created cards, had all studied books related to enchanting to some extent.
It had been mentioned during their discussions, so everyone felt that Ruan Qingyi’s words were highly credible.
The Star: “Oh, it turns out I’m supposed to give a return gift? I happen to have something here.”
【Ding! The Star has sent a Red Packet 12/12】
With that, Ruan Qingyi sent a Red Packet.
Lan Qingyou, worried that the Red Packet might be as massive as the one from Hierophant, specifically reached her hand out past the magic desk.
With a soft thud, a bolt of cloth dropped out from the card.
It was a bolt of navy blue cloth, covered in patterns.
Lan Qingyou picked it up. It felt a bit like canvas, but it wasn't very heavy.
【Magic Pattern Cloth (D)】
【Effect: Crafting material】
【Description: Strong, durable, waterproof, and heat-retaining. Since magic patterns are already embroidered onto it, it is very suitable for enchanting.】
Looking at the regular magic patterns on it, Lan Qingyou fell into thought.
Since she couldn't draw magic patterns as precise as a strand of hair, did she use silk thread to weave them instead?
Lan Qingyou could even feel faint traces of mana constantly leaking from the threads used as magic patterns.
To be honest, this method seemed quite excellent.
But unfortunately, Lan Qingyou couldn't achieve this level of precision. Whether it was the silk thread or the embroidery, she couldn't do either.
Was it really because her primary profession was a tailor and her hobby was enchanting that she could reach this level?
No, it was more likely that the cloth was something she specifically made in order to continue being a tailor in this other world.
Though she didn't know the truth, Lan Qingyou felt that was the case.
After all, they had all adapted in similar ways. Just as she had set up an herb field in her shelter, they were all preparing materials for themselves.
Magician: “Thank you. This cloth is wonderful.”
High Priestess: “So there’s a way to draw patterns like this? My horizons were too narrow.”
Wheel of Fortune: “It’s not necessarily about horizons, but a matter of ideas. Your perspective just hadn't opened up yet.”
The Star: “Haha, it’s nothing special. I’m glad you all like it. If you want to use this cloth to make clothes or something later, you can find me. Private commissions, strictly high-end.”
Good grief.
It seemed this person was indeed a perfect fit for Tarot Villa; she’d started advertising herself the moment she arrived. Private commissions, strictly high-end—she probably charged a fortune, didn't she?
High Priestess: “Really?”
Empress: “Making clothes, huh? I’ve been wearing clothes I found in supply chests this whole time. I never really thought about this.”
The Star: “Of course. If you don't believe me, wait a moment. Witch, I’ve made an outfit for you. Put it on and show everyone.”
The Tower: “Eh?”
Lan Qingyou, who had been lurking, held her card with a face like that meme of the old man on the subway.
How did she end up as the subject of the gossip?
Though she didn't understand what was going on, she still accepted the set of clothes sent by the other party.
It consisted of a blue-black witch's robe similar to an academic gown, a black corseted dress with a white ruffled shirt, a pair of black socks, black mid-calf Gothic shoes, and a witch's pointed hat that was blue-black on the outside and deep red on the inside.
【Extreme Deep Blue Witch Set (D)】
【Effect: Warmth】
【Description: A set created by an excellent designer and tailor. It appears to be both practical and fashionable.】
【Enchantments: Basic Cleansing Enchantment, Basic Constant Temperature Enchantment, Basic Defense Enchantment, Basic Waterproof Enchantment】
Wow, one outfit with four enchantments?
Was this the true power of an enchanter?
The Star: “Did you receive it?”
The Tower: “I did.”
High Priestess: “Put it on, quick! Remember to take a photo for me!”
...Lan Qingyou looked at the outfit, then at the group chat.
Even though only High Priestess was speaking, Lan Qingyou knew that beneath the surface, everyone was watching in secret.
These sneaky lurkers were active enough during discussions, but the moment someone became a test subject, they all collectively dove underwater to watch the show.
Oh, wait, I do that too. Never mind then.
Thinking about it, she really did need new clothes, and more importantly, this set matched her identity as a witch quite well.
So, Lan Qingyou gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
She’d wear it!
It was just a selfie, what was the big deal?
But after putting it on, she noticed something unusual.
It... fit surprisingly well!?
Whether it was the chest or the corseted waist, nothing felt tight or loose. It was a perfect fit.
Lan Qingyou didn't quite understand how she’d managed it, but she ultimately followed High Priestess’s suggestion and decided to take a selfie to show the ‘client’ the results. Since it was free, she still needed to do this much.
However, while taking the photo, she found that no matter how she angled it, the effect wasn't great. It felt a bit like a cheap magical girl costume; something was missing.
Right... the magic broom!
With that thought, Lan Qingyou went downstairs, took out her Magic Broom, and floated on it before taking the photo.
Dressed in the witch set, sitting on the Magic Broom, with her alchemy workshop in the background.
That’s it. This was the right vibe.
Lan Qingyou nodded and sent the photo out.
High Priestess: “Wow! Amazing!”
Empress: “It looks very good.”
Wheel of Fortune: “Whoa, how are you flying!”
The Emperor: “She really is! Wait, can the big boss fly?”
Death: “...She can actually fly.”
High Priestess: “Death finally spoke, that wasn't easy. Is it because The Tower can fly? Or because The Star can make clothes?”
Li Huai rarely spoke in the group. Compared to the others, he wasn't a researcher and didn't have much in common with them. Aside from occasionally taking orders in the group, he mostly provided feedback on equipment through private messages.
So, seeing Li Huai speak up, High Priestess expressed her shock.
