004. Le tailleur d'Assogate (Sailor of Assogate)
“Where's the tailor you said, Kima?”
The beautiful woman who was wearing a vintage night dress coated by a thin robe asked in a bored tone. That question has been asked more than five times. However, I did not get a satisfactory answer.
“Maybe tomorrow, Her Majesty the Queen.” Kima who was arranging some dinner menu for the queen replied.
Since morning the beautiful woman had been waiting for the arrival of the tailor that Kima promised. However, until 24 hours passed, the seamstress who was said to be very talented did not appear at the queen's palace.
“If until tomorrow he does not come, I myself will prohibit his shop from operating!” cetus Kayena without despair. He has just enjoyed the entree, which is a light appetizer or starter. However, somehow he has gone up in tension.
Chefs at the queen's court were also brought from Kyen to cook the coquilles saint jacquest for dinner. A typical French appetizer that is processed by shellfish in pesto sauce or gratin. Accompanied by a glass of pineau des cahrentes wine, which is a taste-enriched wine. Made of wine and cognac. While the main dish is a heavier roast beef. There are also salads that add to the row of healthy and fiber-rich foods. However, Kayena enjoys a little coquilles saint jacquest, a piece of roasted beef, as well as two salad spoons. It does not touch pineau des cahrentes wine at all and prefers to replace it with water.
The portion of Kayena's meal never changed. He only eats a few bribes, as long as the nutritional needs and fiber for his body are fulfilled. Especially when still in mourning—in previous life—Because can not eat for a day, because it is too late in sadness.
“I'm sure the tailor you want will come tomorrow,” said Kima when she started cleaning up the former queen's dinner.
Since repeating life a second time, Kayena has become more thorough and selective. He didn't want any servants to enter his room. Only Kima, the butler, the head chef, as well as a few maids gained access in and out of Kayena's room easily.
“We'll see tomorrow. She came or not,” muttered Kayena. He needed a tailor who had another level skill to support his first appearance at the anniversary of the birth of the great concubine Katarina. If he missed the golden opportunity, he would have to overhaul his plan from the start.
Kayena is looking forward to making her first appearance. He wanted to see how the look on the face of her husband and her husband's lover. Will they be surprised? Or more than surprised? Kayena can't wait for it.
“Your Majesty the Queen.”
“Hm. What's up?”
“There is a guest for you,” said Kima who came with a few piles of documents in her arms. He was asked to take some documents.
“Who? In my daily agenda there was no meeting with anyone today.” that answer was thrown by a beautiful woman who was behind a desk. He looked serious about reading some documents from morning.
“Tailor from Assogate,” said Kima told.
Suddenly, the hand movement of Kayena who was using a pen immediately fell silent. “Please enter. I've been waiting for him for a long time.”
Kayena smiled obliquely as finally the tailor she had been waiting for came as well. Almost he asked Kima to find other talented tailors in every corner of Robelia.
“This lowly tailor salutes Your Majesty.”
Kayena nodded from behind her desk. “So you are a talented tailor who has recently become a debate among the nobles?”
Kayena looked at her interlocutor with a look of disbelief. He thought the tailor from the shop named Assogate was someone half a century old, or at least a quarter of a century. However, judging from his face, the young man was still very young. Kayena did not even believe that she was a tailor who later became very famous among the nobles. Remembering her first dress designs are popular in the area Robelia used by the daughter of a noble at the debutante event (debytat).
Debutante is derived from the French word debutante (debytet) which means a young woman from an aristocratic or upper-class family background who has reached maturity, and as a new adult, who has, presented to the public on formal “debut”. In Robelia, the debutant or debutante (debytet) is usually held every April, in the spring when the flowers bloom. The noble ladies and young masters went to the palace to pay their respects to the king and queen.
“I'm just an ordinary tailor, Your Grace.”
“Show me your skills,” Kayena said as she folded her hands in front of her chest. “Make me a dress that can change the perspective of others towards the wearer.”
Killian, tailor From Assogate smiled obliquely. “If you may know, what event to use the dress for?”
“My first appearance on the anniversary of Consort's birth,” Kayena replied without a lie. “As a customer, I have some input.”
“I will listen to input from Her Majesty the Queen with pleasure,” Killian replied while removing the backpack she used to carry some needed items. “For a lowly people like me, it is an honor to make clothes for the Imperial Sun Companion.”
“It turns out you are good at flattering,” response Kayena while moving from where she sits. “You only have two days to make the dress I want.”
“Honestly, I can't make a new dress in such a short time, Her Majesty Queen.”
“Why?” kayena's forehead was wrinkled to hear it. Before summoning the tailor from Assogate to the palace, Kayena had already asked Kima to investigate her identity first.
In addition to Killian's identity, Kima also explained some of the advantages of Killian's hand stitching. The young man was a good tailor. The result of the stitching is neat, the dress design is also always out of the box until the impression dare to open. One of the characteristics of the tailor from Assogate design dress is the sprinkling of gemstones that beautify the appearance of the dress.
“Except?” confused Kayena. Waiting for the continuation of Killian's sentence.
“ ... if Her Majesty the Queen deigns, I can design a new dress from one of the old dress collection.”
Kayena smiled obliquely hearing that. “Designing a dress from one of the collections of old dresses? That doesn't sound too bad. Try to show your skills first,” he said later. “Kima. Bring me my old dresses.”
“Good Her Majesty the Queen,” replied Kima immediately.
Instead of creating a new dress, the tailor from Assogate instead proposed another option.design a dress from one of Kayena's old dress collections. Sounds pretty interesting. Kayena wanted to give the young man a chance first. He wanted to know the extent of the young man's ability, to the extent that the name of his clothing store was popular lately.
“Too open,” comment Kayena.
“Your Majesty the Queen said she wanted a dress that showed a bold and fiery impression?” Killian dared to answer, because indeed he sketched the dress according to Kayena's wishes.
“Yes. That's my goal, but ... it's too open.”
Killian nodded in understanding. She then moved the pencil back over the sketch of her dress. Added something. “What if it's like this?”
“This is much nicer,” agree Kayena. The young man added a collar accent but looked decorated by something. “Then what is this?”
“Special feature of my design,” replied Killian. “I need one crate of red gemstone.”
“Please say your words to Her Majesty the Queen,” Kima joked.
Instead of trembling, Killian smiled slightly as she leaned her back against the back of the chair. The gesture was actually very disrespectful to show ordinary people in front of a queen, but Kayena did not pay attention.
“For what is one gemstone crate?” tanyanya.
“To beautify Her Majesty Queen's dress.”
Kayena was silent for a while. Real gemstones to decorate a dress? So brilliant. Kayena also agreed to these conditions. During the making process, Killian was also asked to stay at the queen's palace, so that Kayena could directly control the progress of making costumes for her first appearance.
“Beautiful,” praise Kayena when the opportunity to use the first dress of Killian design. She immediately fell in love with a dress that reminded her of the debutante period. The old dress overhauled by Killian was indeed her dress when she was not the queen of Robelia. Because of the young man's magical hand, now Kayena's old dress looks like new.
“Work for me, Killian,” pinta Kayena while looking at the smiling young man. Sometimes he behaves as he pleases. “I want you to take care of my needs about clothes.”
Killian smiled faintly, then paid his respects to the Imperial Sun Companion. “It's an honor to work for Her Majesty the Queen.”

The sound of bells ringing that morning welcomed Kayena's presence in a Cathedral built in the Gothic style. Although small in size, the Cathedral named Carcel is very beautiful and cool to the eye. After the bells were rung as a sign to call the people to gather and pray, the people of Robelia seemed to come in droves.
When Kayena made it inside, every row of seats had been filled. His heart felt so full. It turns out that the people of Robelia loved the late crown prince Carcel very much. Compared to the nobles who were not seen at all that morning, because they must be busy preparing to meet the invitation of the great concubine Katrina.
“Mother is coming, darling.” Kayena muttered when she saw one portrait of her first son on one side. “I'm sorry if Mom couldn't protect you and your sisters in a previous life.”. “For the future, I will not let your sisters be born in the same situation and condition.”
Kayena has promised. In this life he will escape the clutches of Kaizen, after avenging the misfortune that he and his sons felt in their previous lives.
