With a bang and a crash, the sound of breaking objects echoed.

"Truly detestable young whelp!"

The Nuier family is a faction known as the technical nobility.

In this country, where the affinity with spirits is strong, the family that can create protective stitching, which houses the power of spirits, is special.

The founder of the family was a collateral descendant of the first queen.

The founder of the Nuier family also created the core of the barrier that prohibits the existence of a certain level of magic within the country, to protect the country and the spirits.

"We, who are first-class nobles, should not be mocked like this!"

Nobles are divided into ranks according to their status.

There are seven ranks in total, and the Nuier family, which was first-class until the previous generation, has now fallen to third-class.

The family lost most of its territory due to a business failure in the previous generation, which led to a drop to second-class, and despite being technical nobles, they fell to third-class due to their poor skills... and they lack the awareness and reflection to improve.

The current head of the family is secretly angry at having to let go of his talentless eldest daughter for a reasonable price to a nouveau riche.

After shouting to his heart's content and taking out his anger on furniture and breakable items, he twisted his mouth into a grin.

In contrast to the Nuier family, which fell in rank from the previous generation, Rodan rose from fourth-class to second-class due to his overflowing talent and popularity.

It was whispered that the only reason he hadn't risen to first-class was the lack of royal blood in his lineage.

Though she was a talentless, poor-looking eldest daughter, she was undoubtedly of the Nuier family's blood... a daughter who would have been the heir if she had talent.

"Hmph, you say you want the seamstress's skills, but I know your true intentions. You're just trying to take over the family and rise even higher."

He took out a piece of leather paper from his pocket.

Just looking at it made him feel as if his frustration and jealousy were fading away.

It was a curse passed down in the Nuier family.

The head of the family has a family rule to rewrite the contract with spiders for those who marry out.

However, the current head had not done this and had not given any warning.

Spiders were originally creatures that devoured spirits.

The founder of the family had made a contract to change their nature.

"Hehehe, the moment the name is changed, this contract will be broken, and that young whelp and those around him will..."

In a corner of the room, a spider the size of a person, with a slave collar around a woman's back, chirped in response to the head of the family, making a creaking sound.

No matter how expensive the fabric, it won't change what I do.

Since there was an excessive amount of fabric, I was able to easily turn the cheap golf shirt from my previous life, which was only for old men, into a regular dress shirt.

"Fast"

The former king muttered, almost involuntarily.

So far, I've sewn with ordinary thread.

Well, because the spider silk was torn apart by the spirit's sword.

If the same thing happens again, it would be a disaster... No, he wouldn't do such a thing indiscriminately, but since I know, I should take precautions as a professional.

"Please try it on once."

I think it should be fine, but I want the wearer's opinion.

The former king, with a serious expression, took the shirt I sewed and put it on.

"...This is amazing. Ordinary clothes... are not this comfortable..."

"No, Yui's clothes are not ordinary. Even without protective stitching, it's the skill of a first-class seamstress. If I could do protective stitching, it would be unfair to compare it with the skills of a non-ranked seamstress."

"Are there any tight spots? Any places where movement is difficult?"

The former king, in response to my question, had a face that looked like he was about to cry.

"I'm sorry, I've only ever worn tight, uncomfortable, and restrictive clothes... I can't find any specific requests. In fact... the shirt feels so good that my undergarments are becoming uncomfortable..."

"......"

"......"

Poor thing!!

Former King, you're so pitiful!!

Even though you're a great person!! Even though you're a great person!!

I couldn't help but tear up, and Lord Rodan also groaned and pressed his eyes.

"Yui, please finish it quickly for him."

"Yes, sir!"
