The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1786

Chapter 1786: Meisje Has Ideas

The space that Opal created in the small shop was surprisingly bright and airy, by Meisje’s estimation. There were high ceilings, light coloured walls, a bright chandelier that cast even lighting over the whole space.

It was magnificent, and as far from her impression of Rae as humanly possible.

"Oh, this is lovely. Somehow, I suspected something different."

Rae laughed, and gestured upstairs. "The rooms that you’re thinking of are up there. Dark and sexy and filled with things that make mothers blush. Follow me, I will show you all of it, since you will be running the shop most of the time."

Meisje followed her up the stairs and found that the upper floor was actually separated into three separate "rooms", separated only by a pillar in the middle of the room and a colour scheme. But somehow Opal had managed to make the lighting in all three zones different.

"This will be the gowns and finery. I do make some menswear, but that goes on the main floor. Then that is the lingerie section, and this section is just for sexy stuff and leather that isn’t armour."

"Leather stuff that isn’t armour?"

"You know, essentials like restraint hardware, flogs, handbags and such."

Meisje blinked slowly. How did those things go together, other than all being made of leather?

"Uh, I think that fashion accessories and bedroom accessories go in different sections, even if they’re all leather."

Rae frowned. That wasn’t how she organized things.

"Well, we can try it your way. If you believe that you have better spots, I will let you try. It’s a growing experience. Now, I will put everything out, and you tell me what needs to be moved."

Rae quickly arranged the shop to her usual standards, and Meisje shook her head as she saw how Rae had arranged the leather section.

It looked like a junk drawer, there was no organization.

"Alright. First off, let’s find a spot for handbags on the main floor. Move all the bedroom equipment to the right wall, where you will only see it if you’re looking for it. That will draw everyone’s eyes to the clothing and the leather accessories.

Those will be higher volume goods. The shops back home used to sell a lot of accessories and trinkets. The rest looks good, with the gowns in front, so that the ladies have to pass all the expensive dresses to get to the other stuff.

The lingerie section is... scandalous. I don’t know if it’s appropriate to have mannequins that realistic."

Opal laughed. "They’re not mannequins, they’re the lingerie section staff. Gargoyles shaped like Elves. I figured since you’re part Elf, having all Elves working here would be comfortable."

"Not when I can see their nipples."

"You’re weird."

Opal adjusted the outfits of the lingerie gargoyles to ones that covered marginally more, with a translucent white silk toga over them, so that they could model for customers without fully undressing.

"How about you put actual clothes on them, and have them model in the back by the changing rooms? Not out in the open."

"Ooh, I like the way that you think!"

Meisje shook her head in dismay. The Fae was definitely on a different page than she was.
