"Picking a gift?"

The pink-haired girl quickly realized the reason for Leah's troubles.

It must be a party hosted by Linda, and it's about to start.

But that idiot Leah hasn't decided what gift to bring!

"I think that store is pretty good."

The young girl pointed to a store selling designer luxury goods, and, like a cunning saleswoman, giggled:

"Magic watches from brands like [Clear Ocean Sky], [Sexy Elf], and [Old Man Adventurer] are popular with boys. The only downside is that they're a little pricey, but for a Rock-level captain, it's definitely not a big deal."

Lia's expression changed.

She herself lived frugally, using her gold coins to buy magical equipment, and had no valuable ornaments on her body.

They actually bought Linda those magical watches that cost tens of thousands of dollars?

Expensive, too expensive!

"Bye-bye, I have something to do, I'm leaving now!"

Just as Lia was struggling with her decision, the pink-haired girl and the butler disappeared at the end of the shopping street.

"Such speed, Star Rank...?"

Leah blinked, muttering to herself in surprise.

Why does she feel a sense of familiarity with this kind of person?

She scratched her head, racking her brains, but couldn't remember where she had seen him before.

"Lin Xi does resemble her somewhat, but Lin Xi has black hair."

Leah muttered to herself, "I wonder if Linda has found any clues about Lin Xi. I bought the gift to go there, not to attend the party, but just to ask about Lin Xi!"

With that thought in mind, Leah felt a little guilty as she entered a shop that specialized in selling men's luxury goods.
