The girl seemed to consider it before speaking.
“Excuse me…… Then unni, please make this for my mother.”
“Of course.”
So-mi replied.
-The Mischievous Girl Laura’s Request
Laura who lives in the settler’s village of Harun played a trick while baking and ruined her mother’s important gloves. Laura tried to make her mother the same gloves but she was unable to. Laura would like you to make her some new kitchen gloves. However, you have to keep it a secret that you made the gloves from Laura’s mother.
‘What’s this?’
So-mi’s expression was confused.
“Give it to me. I’ll make it immediately.”
She didn’t pay the information window any regard and started making the gloves for the girl. In fact, she had been interested in the girl because she saw the cloth. So-mi might not know anything else but she specialized in sewing. It was a distant memory but her hobbies in high school was knitting and cross stitching. It was to the extent that she made Ark’s clothes when he was younger. Well, she did it until Ark was embarrassed by his friends in junior high. After being released from the hospital, she had started the hobby again. Thanks to that, her needlework skill was almost at a professional standard. It was easy for her to make the kitchen gloves.
“Now, all done. How is it? Is it similar?”
“Wah. It is just like it!”
The girl skipped around with surprise and indicated that she liked the gloves.
“Thank you very much unni. Like I said a while you, you can’t tell my mum that you made these. Okay? I don’t need this so I’ll give it to you instead.”
“W-wait a minute, I……”
“Goodbye.”
Laura handed her a needle and thread and ran away.
quest has been completed.
-Fabric: Cotton cloth (10th rank general sewing material) has been acquired.
-Thread and needle (10th rank general material) has been acquired.
So-mi involuntarily received the thread and needles. So-mi picked up the needle and thread with a wry smile.
“Hmm, I don’t know what happened but it worked out. Anyway, I can also do needlework in the game……”
It was good since she didn’t have to spend the 800 hours hunting. After searching through her bag for the basic equipment of a knife, she made some gloves out of the cloth. After some familiar movements, an information window appeared.
-Common Cloth Gloves (A class production item)
Armour type: Cloth gloves
Defense: - Durability: 5/5
Weight: 1 User restriction: Level 1 and higher
Gloves made of ordinary cotton gloves that can be found anywhere. However, this item was made with experienced workmanship.
‘Oh, it is also possible to make something I can use.’
The fact that she could make something like this in New World was fascinating. So-mi became interested and started making more things using the cloth. Aside from the gloves, she also made a hat and scarf. She used the leftover cloth to make it. But after making it, she thought it looked somewhat lonely.
‘It looks a bit flat….. Ah yes, I have enough thread.’
So-mi excitedly turned over the gloves to the back. She used her experienced sewing skill and created a colourful flower shape in seconds. She also placed the same design on the hat and scarf set. Suddenly she heard someone’s voice in front of her.
“Excuse me unni. Are you selling that?”
“Huh?”
So-mi raised her head and inadvertently flinched. While she was distracted by the sewing, dozens of people had gathered around her. When So-mi made a puzzled expression, the previous girl ran up to her and asked.
“Would you sell this to me? No, please sell it to me!”
“S-sell?”
“Yes, it’s a request. It’s the first time that I’ve seen gloves I liked so much!”
“Eh? You’re selling?”
“T-then sell that to me! The hat, sell me the hat!”
“No, sell me the hat instead! How much is it? 50 silver? 1 gold?”
The girls surrounded her with bright eyes. Once again, items created in New World could be classified as clothing. And creating armour and robes required more advanced sewing skills. In other words, the gloves created by So-mi was just a decoration. Naturally a man would feel the charm of armour but women were more interested in beautiful clothes. So simple decorations were important for women. Honestly, what girl wouldn’t like jewellery if she could get it? It was the natural instincts of a woman to like something beautiful. Furthermore, it was possible to layer general clothing on top of armour. In other words, it was possible to wear flashy attire on the battlefield! So clothing was the number one desired item for some female users. Those females couldn’t miss the chance to obtain So-mi’s unique clothing.
“W-what is happening?”
So-mi looked down at her hands with a foolish expression. After selling the gloves, hat and scarf, the people surrounding her disappeared. And So-mi held 3 gold in her hand. The money was gained in a truly unexpected way.
“I can get money like this?”
Then she visited the general store and bought 30 cotton cloths.
“It is also possible to make money this way!”
So-mi grabbed her bag filled with cloth and became motivated. She didn’t know how much 3 gold was in reality. However, this was something for her to do in New World since she couldn’t catch wolves. It was something for her to do after spending so long in the hospital. It happened after making dozens of flashy clothing.

However, if it fails then the durability of the clothing can be decreased.
When the clothes were completed, the skill proficiency bonus was applied to the clothes. And when she used the embroidery skill, options such as ‘courage +1′ and ‘recovery rate +5%’ was added. Although it was a beginner skill and not that many options were applied, it was a starting village so items with those items were quite attractive. No, it was already attractive since embroidered clothes in New World. Thanks to So-mi, a new trend in fashion was created. After a week had passed, So-mi became a well-known costume designer in the starter village of Harun. She was also happy since it was the first time she didn’t need anybody’s help after leaving the hospital. And she was excited for users to wear her clothes so she poured hard work and sweat into it. Thus So-mi began to increasingly log into New World.
