Chapter 894 894 Prepare For Dinner

??Wolfe used Detect Hidden to look through the hotel and find the fashion of the Nobles in the area, and then adapted the styles a bit so that they would fit in, but still look slightly foreign. They didn't want to look quite like the locals, to avoid confusion, but the suits that the men wore were very similar to the ones that men in his world did before the war, very formal with split tail coats and ties tucked into their vests.

So, he kept searching until he found styles that he liked. There was a tall tower in town that he could see out the window, and with [Detect Hidden] at full power, he could see the people inside in wizard robes, but also in elegant dresses that had stripes on the sleeves representing the power of the woman wearing them.

That would work well for the witches. He would have to turn their levels down a little bit, but it was a decent fashion statement at least.

The problem was that they seemed to be the military forces of the Fallen Army, and impersonating the army would lead to all sorts of headaches that he didn't need or want.

So, he kept searching, until he found men in the fanciest district of town that had some magic and were dressed decently. The men were wearing fancy leather coats over a more modern suit, and the ladies were wearing...

"No, that won't work." Wolfe muttered to himself.

All the women from that district were wearing translucent black silk gowns that left nothing to the imagination. What he had thought was the most upscale area of town, thanks to all the wealthy people headed there, was actually the brothel and casino district.

He might still take fashion cues from the pimps or gangsters that were running the clubs, though.

The Noble Ladies were wearing reasonable enough dresses, though the number of layers seemed excessive. At least with the magical construction, the weight wouldn't matter, but they would still look good, and not immediately stand out in the crowd.

It was harder to hide his own power, but Wolfe managed to shield all but the central core of his mana cores from casual inspection, which would greatly reduce the amount of power that others sensed from him, but he would still feel much more powerful than most.

Wolfe adjusted his power, and created a fresh set of outfit spells for the others and himself, then paused when he noticed the strange looks he was getting.

"What? Did I mess it up? I should have cut my power signature to about one seventh." Wolfe asked.

Ella shook her head. "You did that, but what is left feels entirely like the Lower Planes, it's really creepy. But maybe that's a good thing. They'll never know that it's you if you feel like this to other magic users. They might even think you're some sort of emissary from the Divine One, since you feel like his home realm."

"We will have to see when we leave again. We will get all dressed up and head down for dinner, with an attempt to socialize and make friends. The more we can learn about this world, the better. Ideally, we can get someone to tell us where the portal inscription is without directly asking. If I can get close enough to it, I should be able to send us home." Wolfe explained.

Stephanie nodded. "But if you directly ask about or mention the portal, which is probably a significant facility, it will make them suspicious, and that might lead to them mentioning it to others."

With everyone on the same page, they got changed, with the two little ones dressed as Noble Children, so others didn't keep mistaking them for servants.

Stephanie laughed as Molly did a spin in her new dress.

"I don't mind if they think I'm your servant. It might make things easier than explaining why you're travelling with random children that are too old to be yours." The young beastkin laughed.

lights??v?l ??m There were a number of other beastkin in town, but they were all servants, menial workers and such. They didn't hold any of the noble, or even the higher merchant roles. Wolfe didn't see a singe one running a shop, though most shops had one working there.

"Alright, If you're going to be the Family's servant, you can let your ears show. There are other beastkin in town, but they don't hold any rank." Wolfe explained.

Stephanie, pulled the hat off the beastkin girl with a smile. "I will also take up that role. I like being underestimated, and I have a lot of practice with hiding my aura. They will never suspect that I am a magic user until it is too late."

Wolfe altered the two smaller dresses to look like very well treated servants, but not quite across the line into what would be inappropriate for a commoner.

Everyone followed Wolfe out of the room, and the hotel staff did a double take when they saw them come down.

"Did I get it right? I'm not entirely familiar with local fashion, but I thought this looked fairly good." Wolfe asked.

The maid nodded frantically. "Yes, Lord Noxus, you all look stunning. It was just a shock to see you dressed more locally after the foreign outfits you arrived wearing."

"We will need dinner for everyone. Together, is fine. We travel as a group quite frequently." Wolfe explained.

The maid bowed politely and led them to a small private dining room, where there were two tables, one larger, and one at the side for servants.

Stephanie and Molly giggled about being set at the kids table, and then again when they got an actual kids' menu. It wasn't a "Commoner" menu, it actually said kids menu on it.

None of the food names were really familiar, but there were descriptions underneath, and Stephanie was happy to play along. They had a local version of chicken Parmesan, and while the cheese name wasn't familiar, the dish sounded the same. So, she requested it for both her and Molly, by telling Wolfe in his mind, so he could order for them.

That was how things were normally done here, and she noticed that Wolfe's menu was the only one that had prices on it. The thought made her smirk to herself. If he wasn't cheating and just making money as he went, they could really hit his wallet with this setup.
