Chapter 49 - The Lifetime of Piao: Chapter 47 — Military Privileges

Angela sighs.

"Oh, so I'm not the only one suffering. You also have to pick one of these fluffy clothes, right?" she says, mimicking her sister's voice.

"Actually, no. It's only you."

"Wait, what do you mean?"

"Do you remember that I'm in the military?" Angel says. "I'm the head of the guard forces. Division head and all that. So I have to wear a military uniform."

"Is that why you were wearing a semi-formal outfit earlier?"

"Yeah. It was just the first meeting. I didn't want to intimidate anyone. But now I actually have to go get my uniform. There's nothing for me in this section."

"What are you going to do?" Angela asks.

"Well," Angel says, walking toward the side wall, "I just need to put in a sequence code."

She enters a code near the wall, and another section of the closet opens.

Inside are neatly organized military uniforms.

Angel looks back at her sister.

"This section wasn't originally here. I had to convince Mother to allow me to add it. After a lot of convincing, she finally agreed because I made a good case. I told her that since I'm in the military and attend important meetings, I need emergency uniforms ready. So she approved it and unlocked this section for me. But the main room was made for all the sisters."

"Can't I take one of your clothes?" Angela asks.

Angel looks at her.

"Didn't I tell you to join the military?"

"…Yeah."

"And I told you that you could take any position, right?"

"Yeah."

"And when you said you didn't want to be on the field, didn't I tell you that you could be a military strategist? You could help create weaponry and technology?"

"…Yeah."

"And you refused, right?"

"…Yeah."

"So yeah. If you had accepted, you probably wouldn't have to wear these things. But I'm sure you can find something that works for you. It just can't come from this section. Good luck."

"I despise you."

"Hey, 'despise' is a very big word. You shouldn't use that against family. You understand?"

"Fine. Love you. I'll see you later."

"At the end of each section, there's a place where you can get dressed," Angel adds. "You should go do that. I'm going to do mine, and we'll meet up after."

"Fine."

Angela starts searching through the layers of fluffy, cute, patterned clothes, trying to find something decent to wear.
