When they had eaten Rosie came in and served them tea, coffee and coffee and cake.
She sat down next to Lily on the sofa and said, “It starts in 2 days but there are some preparations where we need extra hands. To do more advertising, we need you or your girls.”
Lily nodded and began to introduce all the girls and their abilities. She didn't know how much time she had left to help with preparations as she had a killing quest that she wanted to complete as soon as possible because she was afraid that the system would punish her if she waited until the last day.
She also had to focus on making her base and hiring more people, but she needed strong people, and they didn't have to be poor either.
Suddenly Rosie asked, "Is that your twin sister?" and pointed to the clone sitting between Dean and Katniss.
Ugh, Lily had completely forgotten about her inept clone and looked at it and got annoyed and replied, “No. It's my cousin. Look she has a birthmark on her upper lip.”
Rosie looked closely and indeed saw a birthmark above the left upper lip and was surprised.
"Wow, she must be as smart as you if you 're in the same family." she said excitedly and her heart beat faster and she started drooling.
Lily's head hurt when she heard the word 'smart' and said, “You can do whatever you want with her. You must ask permission from Dean and Katniss first.”
Why did it sound so right to her ears because it was her clone but when she said the words it sounded completely wrong.
“I don't know what Fergus has been saying about me but…” but before she could finish her sentence Rosie cut her off, “I know. My mouth and that of my girls are sealed.”
She breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Good. Then I don't have to explain everything.”
Rosie took out a pile of clothes and placed them on the couch and said, “Since you all look alike physically, I think I have your measurements right. These are the clothes you must wear that day.”
Lily looked at a black dress that was on top. There was a white apron on top with lace. She picked up the dress and saw that it was thigh-skimming. There was a headband with white rabbit ears and a pair of large gloves that looked like rabbit feet. There was a pair of white knee tights with lace, and she looked at Rosie in disbelief.
Was she insane?
That was some fetish cosplay clothing.
Did she intend to attract disgusting horny men?
Her body was sacred, and no one should touch her without her permission.
“You can't be serious.” she said, hoping she was right.
Rosie smiled widely and said, “That's your costume. You are our mascot. The rest is for your girls.”

Lily felt she had been cheated and looked annoyed at Fergus and said, “You knew but didn't say anything. You have betrayed me.”
"You wouldn't listen to me." Fergus defended, clearing his throat.
"Since you don't have cooking skills, you can only be our mascot." Rosie said.
"What is the festival about?" Lily asked curiously.
“All the biggest guilds in Sanszhin compete for the most dragon kills. A lot of dragons spawn in a certain area where individual must kill them in time. The people who kill the most in time win prizes from the system and the person who is no. 1 wins a battle companion. The guild that is number 1 also gets a guild mount that everyone in their guild can use.” Fergus replied.
Wow, Lily was reminded of the time she asked for transportation where they said she had to donate gold separately to get guild points that she could spend on transportation.
She remembered that she had forgotten to mention to Ace and Leo that she had a base in Kahrlin and quickly sent them a message about it in case Leo had unsuccessfully visited her at William's residence.
“Isn't that dress too cold to wear? After all, we will be at the end of September in a little while.” she said looking at the dress again annoyed.
Rosie smiled and replied, "No, it has a built-in thermos, try putting it on."
Lily took the outfit without the rabbit feet and went into a small room next door and put on the clothes. She looked in the mirror and didn't know what to think of herself. She was wearing the black maid dress which was cut low, so her breasts were visible and the white apron with lace and rabbit ears on her head. She had put on the white tights.
She had once tried cosplay for some time but found out that it was mostly perverted and sweaty men who showed up at the big conventions and had dropped it completely in the end.
"Is there a pair of white or black stilettos that can increase speed that are not class based that can keep the heat?" she asked.
"Here." replied the system and an item lit up.
Hermes' Lightning Shoes. Speed increased by 100%. With Assasin class speed increased by an extra 100%
She took out a pair of black patent leather stilettos and put them on. They felt flat and comfortable and were lovely to wear. She went in to the others and waited for their opinions.
“Wow. You are perfect.” Rosie exclaimed, standing up excitedly and running over to her, checking her from head to toe, touching her all over including her bum.
“There is also a tail if you are interested. When you have time, can you try on some other costumes for me?” she asked excitedly, afraid of getting wet between her legs and trying to hold the mask.
"You smell good Lily." she whispered softly into Lily's ears.
Argh, Lily was shocked and took a step back from Rosie as she was reminded of Katniss's words that still haunted her.
Why was everyone so crazy around her?
First her clone, then Dean and his girlfriend and now Rosie.
When they were done with the instructions, they went to the accommodation that William had given Lily.
They relaxed and when they had eaten dinner and it was getting dark Lily stood up and looked at them all and said, “I have some souls to harvest. I'm taking Arba with me.” and felt she sounded like a soul reaper.
“Be careful Mistress.” Katniss said looking at her worriedly.
Lily looked down at herself and realized she was still wearing her maid outfit. It had felt so comfortable that she had forgotten to take it off.
When she stood at the entrance with Arba she looked at him. He was strong so he definitely had a way to let her see the pvp zones because if she couldn't see any people, she couldn't kill them.
"I need you to activate the pvp zones when I need it." she said.
When they got outside, Arba looked at Jun De and said, “He will attract attention.”
Lily agreed and nodded and took out a mask that looked like an anime girl. Arba put on the pink rabbit mask, and he wore a black hooded cloak. He embraced her and they flew off towards the portal to Labunagaan. As they flew over a white field illuminated by the moonlight Lily was reminded that she had used up her flow when she revived Baba Yaga's plants.
“Land here. I must charge.” she said pointing to the white field.
They landed in front of it and Lily hurried to harness Spirit Flow to 100% and then flew on towards the portal. Lily looked at Kenta flying beside them and wondered why people didn't ask questions about him because he sure was special. Perhaps he had a function that could hide his true identity. After she had given him a new name, his behavior towards her had become much milder.
