Chapter 68: Lolita Outfits, Crossdressing, and More Crossdressing
The fulfilling and happy night passed quickly.
Sophia was woken up with great reluctance, then carried by Mera as they followed Ariel out of the inn. At the mere thought of the "devil training" about to resume, she wilted completely, struggling and squirming in protest. Unfortunately, no one paid her any mind. Even Mera, who had stood by her silently from the start, was unusually somber today. It left her feeling quite bewildered.
When the trio returned to the temporary camp in the wild, they were greeted by a startling sight.
"Strange... where did these two cute lolis come from?" Ariel stared in confusion at the sudden newcomers.
One was a short-haired golden loli wearing an exquisite sailor suit and a rabbit-ear headband; her sleeves were styled after ancient long-sleeves, perfectly concealing her six extra arms. The other had medium-length golden hair and wore a small red hooded cloak with oversized puff sleeves, making her look exactly like Little Red Riding Hood from fairy tale.
Though their faces were exquisite, they looked a bit stiff—almost like two life-sized high-end ball-jointed dolls.
"Heehee~"
The mastermind behind all this stood by with a triumphant expression, clearly wanting to show off. Having been busy all night, Shiro had changed into a beautiful white dress and even took the time to do her hair, styling her long silver locks into a thick, white braid. She looked completely refreshed, the image of the world's most beautiful... village girl.
She was quite satisfied with her current look, feeling as though she was "bling-blinging" with a goddess-like radiance.
*Praise me! Come on, praise me!*
"Wow, so cute!" Ariel praised sincerely, running over to the two little lolis and poking their cheeks. Even Mera and Sophia gathered around curiously.
"Ara?"
A flock of crows seemed to fly over Shiro's head as she was left standing alone. *What is this? Are you guys ignoring the wrong person? I'm the female lead here; shouldn't you be calling me pretty? Even if I'm proud of these two works, I'm still so mad!!*
o(≧口≦)o
"Haa~"
The noise woke the napping Shirazawa. A slightly raspy, feminine voice let out a yawn as two delicate fists rubbed bleary eyes. This scene happened to be caught by Shiro, who was currently puffing out her cheeks in a sulk.
*Pffft—!*
It felt as though a pink arrow had pierced her chest. *Aze is just too moe! Dammit, why is everyone's maidenly power higher than mine? Fine, I'll give up on the lolis, but why can't I even beat Aze?!*
*Chikoushou!* (Dammit!)
Just as Shiro was about to have a mental breakdown, a cool little hand gently patted her head.
"Shiro, the dress is nice. It looks good on you," Shirazawa praised softly.
Shiro: "..."
*What does that mean? I'm not even as good-looking as a dress?! Ugh... I'm really angry now. The kind that can't be fixed with coaxing!!*
Shiro turned her head away huffily, pulling the gift she had intended for Shirazawa back into her spatial storage. *Hmph!* ╭(╯^╰)╮
Shirazawa's head was full of question marks. He was just telling the truth; why was Shiro mad? He didn't understand the calculations going on in a girl's heart. But if you don't know, you ask.
Telepathy [Information Mind]: (Magic No. 1, emergency. Ask your 'partner'... what is going on here?)*
Telepathy [Magic Mind]: (No way, you have to ask about this? No wonder you're single.)
Telepathy [Information]: (Uh...)
Shirazawa had an instant epiphany. He reached out with his hands and gently cupped Shiro's cheeks. "A dress this beautiful could only be worthy of my Shiro."
The gentle voice whispered in her ear, melting away most of the fire in her heart.
"Hmph." She still turned her head away like a tsundere, pretending not to hear.
"Today's Shiro is very cute," Shirazawa added with a faint smile, stroking her hair.
"So mushy..." Sophia muttered, squirming in Mera's arms to rub away the goosebumps rising on her skin.
This comment successfully drew Shiro's attention. A wave of intense cold swept over. Sophia looked up stiffly, meeting a pair of eyes flashing with a crimson, murderous light.
"..." Shirazawa couldn't help but sweat for Sophia. Regardless, he had settled things on his end; as for Sophia... well, good luck to her.
"Here~" Retracting her dangerous gaze, Shiro returned to her "meek" persona and shoved a gift into Shirazawa's hands.
"I made it with leftover silk. It's a waste to throw it away, so you wear it," she sent telepathically, being quite dishonest.
Shirazawa was stunned for a moment, then broke into a smile. But as he looked at the exquisite lace underwear and the magnificent white princess dress in his palms, he fell into deep thought.
*This thing... do I wear it, or not?*
"I'm so jealous! It's actually lace; that looks so sexy!" Ariel cheered, stirring the pot and even spending several minutes examining the underwear in Shirazawa's hands.
This caused steam to practically erupt from the top of Shirazawa's blushing head.
"Shirazawa-kun, this style really suits you~ Giggle~" Noticing his embarrassment, Sophia covered her mouth and laughed so hard she nearly fell out of Mera's arms.
One had to admit, Sophia's ability to draw aggro was truly maxed out. Shirazawa's face was dark. If looks could kill, Sophia would have died a thousand times over. But she had no self-awareness, only laughing louder.
"Ahem..." Mera cleared his throat, signaling Sophia to stop while they were ahead—they couldn't win a fight against these people.
Finally, under Shiro's expectant gaze, Shirazawa put on the exquisite white lace underwear and donned the white gauze princess dress. *Sigh... I'll just treat it like a crossdressing cosplay at a convention,* he comforted himself.
As the first light of dawn shone down and the breeze blew through his flowing hair, Shirazawa's fairy-like appearance in white was breathtaking.
"Hehe..." Shiro silently gave her masterpiece thirty-two likes.
"Wow~!" Ariel's eyes sparkled as she clapped excitedly. Behind her, the Puppet Spider girls followed suit, using all six of their hands to clap frantically—a sight that was undeniably cute.
"I thank you all so much..." Shirazawa, the victim, looked utterly lifeless. Though, to be fair, after putting on the underwear, his "sensitive spots" no longer hurt from friction.
"So~ Shirazawa-kun, how does it feel?" Sophia asked with big, round eyes full of anticipation.
"Heh heh." Shirazawa gave her a "kind" smile that didn't reach his eyes. "The 'Vampy-chan Upbringing Project' has officially entered Version 2.0. The Shirazawa-style Training Method is now online. Sophia-chan~ are you ready?"
Shirazawa suddenly leaned in close, startling her. "Eh? A-ahhh, what are you doing?!"
She was filled with a strong sense of foreboding. In the next instant, a transparent spider thread sliced through the air, cleanly severing the infant's tiny hand. Crimson blood sprayed out.
"Awooo!!" Sophia screamed, falling to the ground and twitching.
*Waaaah—my hand is gone!*
