As the seasons change and the days become cooler, the Magical Garment Factory is as hard at work as ever. With Lucia at the helm, the factory works to develop warm yet breathable toe socks made of baphomet wool. And that's not all-Dahlia has devised another magical tool to combat the chilly weather and enlists the help of the Tailors' Guild as well as the factory. Meanwhile, Lucia takes on more personal requests, such as a ball gown for a surprising client that comes with the opportunity to observe a dance for nobles. As Lucia continues to gain recognition, Forto finds that his desire to protect her grows even stronger.

It was through that connection that Lucia had begun working for the Tailors’ Guild, which had led in turn to her being appointed the head manager of the Magical Garment Factory.

However, the position of head manager—a role that included handling business with the castle and nobles—presented several difficulties for a commoner like herself. But even bearing in mind the inevitability that she would someday be replaced by another head manager, she worked to the best of her ability alongside her colleagues.

“Good afternoon! Another sunny day today, huh?”

“Yes, but we were just fine. All thanks to those toe socks and zephyricloth you gave us!” the guard replied with a broad smile.

Zephyricloth was one of the magical tools made by the Magical Garment Factory. It was a coarse fabric enchanted to produce a gentle flow of air. When used for undergarments, it kept them from getting sweaty and sticking to the wearer’s skin, making it the opti
