| Facing Islington's sudden explosive shopping spree, the three were determined to get the dress on the next floor, but the results were a crushing defeat. | ||
| And to make matters worse, Islington's luggage blocked the way to the staircase. The only way forward is to steadily move the boxes out of the way. | ||
 Pancras |
"This will delay us further away from the dresses, won't it?" | |
|---|---|---|
 Vivienne |
"Oh mon Dieu, what can we even do!?" | |
 Versailles |
"........." | |
| Versailles |
"Everybody, there's probably a way. Please come this way." | |
| Watching Vivienne and Pancras hanging their heads in frustration, Versailles said quietly. | ||
| Vivienne |
"Whoa, I felt like I'm floating for a second." | |
| Pancras |
"I didn't even know there was such a means of transport." | |
| Vivienne and the rest of us are impressed by what we saw. When the way to the staircase is blocked, Versailles shows us a strange box-shaped means of transport that moves up and down. There's a lever inside the sideways-opening lattice door to operate it. | ||
| Versailles |
"This is called an 'elevator'. Supposedly I heard that a person named Elevator invented this, but I'm not sure." | |
| Versailles |
"I just knew this existed, but I had never ridden in it, so I was honestly worried. From the looks of it, it seems to be okay." | |
| Vivienne |
"If there was such a convenient means of transport, I should have used it from the beginning. I can get to any floor in no time♪" | |
| Pancras |
"But Versailles, why are you trying to go to the basement when the women's clothing departments are upstairs?" | |
| Versailles |
"If there is an elevator, we have the advantage in terms of mobility. So I wanted to buy some souvenirs for the SSS in the food department basement while we are here." | |
| Vivienne |
"Isn't that place just like a normal market?" | |
| Versailles |
"According to my preliminary investigations, there is a collection of pastries from famous pâtissiers all over M. St. Iris on sale." | |
| Vivienne |
"It's M. St. Iris, so I can't wait to see what's on offer. I certainly have a sweet tooth♪" | |
| Pancras |
"I would love to have a real cake from a pâtissier's. There are many cakes that are also very elegant." | |
| Versailles |
"While it's important to challenge Lady Islington over the dresses, I think it's also good to eat some good food here and there to release some of the tension." | |
| Vivienne & Pancras |
"I (quite) agree!" | |
| Before we knew it, we were in an all-out battle for the dress, but today's still a holiday. It's not a bad idea to enjoy spending time out and eating good food together. | ||
| Versailles |
"I think we've arrived, everybody." | |
| The elevator doors opened, and the enchanting basement food hall unfolds before us. The place is packed with customers, but at the centre of the largest crowd is - | ||
 Paddington |
"Hawawa, these macaroons are so good! Excuse me, but I'll take the rest of them, please~!" | |
| All Three |
"........." | |
| Pancras |
"I, thought I just saw a familiar face." | |
| Vivienne |
"Oui. I was so surprised I hit the button to close the door." | |
| Versailles |
"It was just our imagination, surely?" | |
| Vivienne |
"Let's check again." | |
| Paddington |
"All the cakes in the showcase, from here to there... No, I want everything, please!!" | |
| Vivienne |
"It wasn't my imagination..." | |
| Vivienne |
"Oh gosh, this is very bad." | |
| Versailles |
"Um, is it really that difficult when Paddington's here?" | |
| Pancras |
"Paddington is a Divine Child, that's why she always works miracles." | |
| Vivienne |
"Especially in unexpected directions..." | |
| Versailles |
"T-that's something I'd like to see, or maybe not." | |
| Vivienne |
"Paddington is Islington's sister, you know? If we dawdle, we're going to lose here too." | |
| Pancras |
"By the way, Islington said she and her sister came here together. If only I had realised that at the time..." | |
| Vivienne |
"What's past is past. I'm going to go in and buy some sweets and come back as soon as I can." | |
| Vivienne's words are met with nervous nods from both Pancras and Versailles. Then they opened the elevator doors again. | ||
| Versailles |
"Huh, that's strange...? I don't see any of the guests who were here a moment ago." | |
| Pancras |
"What exactly happened in such a short time...?" | |
| The basement food department was eerily quiet. | ||
| There was what appeared to be cold haze in front of us. And a silhouette emerged out of the haze. | ||
| Paddington |
"The buy-in is complete!" | |
| Vivienne |
"WE'RE TOO LATE-!" | |
| Pancras |
"We've run out of elegant cakes..." | |
| Versailles |
"I see, so this is Paddington's power..." | |
| Versailles only muttered approvingly. | ||
| No, it's not over yet. Paddington's actions always goes beyond our imaginations. | ||
| Paddington |
"Oh my, you're all here too? Department stores are fun♪" | |
| Vivienne |
"Just so you know, we came here to buy sweets too, but they're all sold out, right, Paddington?" | |
| Paddington |
"Hawawa, I did bought them all!" | |
| Paddington |
"But don't worry, if there's something you all wanted, I can offer some to you." | |
| Vivienne |
"Really!? Thank you, Paddington!" | |
| Paddington |
"There's a stack of boxes behind me, open them and take what you wa-" | |
| Suddenly, the floor rumbled with what sounded like an earthquake. | ||
| Versailles |
"What are these tremors?" | |
| Paddington |
"Hawawa, the weight is collapsing a hole on the floor!" | |
| Vivienne |
"Wa-! Paddington!?" | |
| Paddington |
"HAAA~~ WAAA~~ WAAA~~!" | |
| Suddenly, a hole appeared on the floor, and Paddington fell into it, alongside all the stuff she had bought. | ||
| Vivienne |
"That girl really doesn't disappoint every time..." | |
| Pancras |
"She could have prevented it if she hadn't put everything in one place..." | |
| Versailles |
"Aaah, the souvenirs..." | |
| The three of them are disappointed to find that they have not been able to get anything again. | ||
| Will they all be able to buy what they want...? | ||
