As Katori arrives at Fernando’s boutique and gives him all the fabrics that he requested from earlier, Fernando tells him that he needs him for another request before he pays Katori for bringing him the fabrics. Fernando offers Katori to take the request directly from him to earn some more money, plus it’s easier for Fernando to hire Katori directly instead of putting a new flier on the request board and from Katori point of view, it’s a good opportunity for him and make his job a lil’ bit more simple so he agree to take that request from Fernando. Fernando explains that he is still missing one special item to make his collection and that item is the Golden Scissor. The Golden Scissor is said to be an extremely rare magic tool that only very few fashion designers in Fiore own. Rumor has it that a traveling merchant will come to Baska with one of them. Fernando needs someone persuasive to get the item and that someone will be Katori. Fernando tells him to investigate and get him the Golden Scissor, he said that it’s possible that Katori will have to convince the merchant to sell it to him because so many people set their eyes to this item.

After he got the information from Fernando, Katori leaves the boutique and goes back to the market to gain some information. He is a little bit pissed off because Fernando didn’t just ask him to do it during the first request and make Katori go back and forth to the market. As he arrives at the market, he explores that place and asks around to gain some information about the traveling merchant that might bring the Golden Scissor and the time of the arrival of that merchant. After he gains information, he finds out that the most rumors spread out that the merchant will be at the market tomorrow morning, but some said that the merchant will arrive at the town tonight.

So in order to avoid a big crowd and potentially lose that Golden Scissor to someone else, Katori decided to wait at the gate of the city, waiting for any merchant that fit the rumors to come and he will make his approach. It takes a long time to wait for someone that fits the information that was collected by Katori, it takes a few hours of waiting and focuses on every merchant that walks through the gate. Looking at them one by one and trying to see as many details as possible is really draining his energy, plus after hours of waiting, it’s already past midnight and Katori is about to end his waiting and plan to just go to the market earlier tomorrow morning, maybe even before any store is open. But as he was about to leave the place, he saw someone that fit perfectly to the merchant that he’s been waiting for. Katori approaches that person and asks him straight to the point about the Golden Scissor. Katori is already tired and wants to wrap this quest up as soon as possible so when the merchant tells him the price booked by someone in this town, Katori decides to pay double the amount with the bonus money he got earlier from Fernando last request and go back to his hotel. The next morning, Katori goes to Fernando’s boutique and gives him the Scissor that he really wants and tells him the price, but Fernando pays it full time and pays Katori for his help and once again gives him some bonus.
