[ wow. listen to this heartbreaker!! she can't help but giggle at that line, which is even funnier because she's almost certain he didn't realize it was a line... ]
You're awfully nice, but look at me. I'm a Mechon. [ she shakes her head, still amused. ]
Hmm... almost? The highest levels that I interacted with were more distant members of the royal family, esteemed soldiers, and a few people called Generals -
Wow... That must be exciting. We haven't really got leaders like that where I'm from. Oh, one of my friends is a princess from another land, though! Too bad I can't buy something from you to give to her.

Ah... I suppose that would make it harder in terms of finding a suitor but...
What other things...?
no subject
Nothing you need to worry about. Maybe I'll tell you some other time.
[ everything is fine... ]
Besides, you've already heard too much about me. I want to learn more about you! What sorts of things do you sell, anyway?
no subject
[at least not enough for him to be satisfied! but he'll go along with her suggestion anyway]
But ah - largely gems and jewelry. My customers are amidst the noble classes, so I had a number of dealings with them.
I liked getting to interact with them - but I also like talking with the common people just as much.

Noble classes - like kings and queens and the like?
