“This is the Heavenly Paradise ceremonial dress from ABFIOTF!”
“What about this Ailuoshaluo-style dress?!”
“Lady Yumo, why not try this Lolita-style one?!”
“I think this cheongsam looks pretty good too!”
“How about this one! My personal recommendation! It’s the Empire’s most popular style this year! Even princesses wear this set! You’re so beautiful, Lady Yumo—you’ll definitely look amazing in it! Eh?! Lady Yumo! At least look at it!! Don’t ignore me!!”
...
...
Originally intending to ignore Saiboke’s introductions and pick clothes herself, Yumo finally reached the limit of her patience after listening to his endless rambling for half an hour.
Veins bulged across her forehead.
‘Dresses, dresses, dresses... Stop introducing dresses and women’s clothing already!’
The girl’s crimson-red eyes slowly narrowed.
Then she gently raised her hand and snapped her fingers.
In an instant, violent winds surged.
A gigantic shadow blocked out the sunlight as an Abyss Demon resembling a vulture descended from the sky. Without hesitation, it shoved its fluffy giant claw straight into Saiboke’s mouth, physically forcing the old butler to shut up.
“Mmmphhhh!!!”
Saiboke struggled desperately, frantically mobilizing his magic power in an attempt to resist the Abyss Demon’s strength.
Seeing this, Yumo helplessly rolled her eyes at him.
“Alright already, Little Sai. I’m not wearing any of these clothes. They’re way too extravagant. What kind of image would that even be? Besides, I wouldn’t even know how to wear this stuff. They all look so damn complicated.”
Looking at the pink-and-white lace dress Saiboke had just handed her, Yumo’s eyebrow twitched violently.
At that moment,
the Abyss Demon suddenly let out a miserable screech.
Saiboke had actually used his excellent teeth to forcibly bite off a chunk of fur from the Demon’s claw!
After spitting out a mouthful of feathers, Saiboke hurriedly said:
“Lady Yumo! It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to wear them! The Duke already planned ahead and prepared complete instruction manuals! You only need to follow the steps! It’s not difficult at all!”
“Ugh...”
Yumo held her forehead.
She would rather live without this kind of “foresight.”
“By the way... didn’t you prepare any men’s clothing?”
“Men’s clothing?”
Saiboke looked genuinely confused.
“But why would we?”
“No, seriously, how did you people even know whether I’d transform into a man or a woman? What if I transformed into a guy?”
“Enmm... well... actually... the Duke said that Lady Yumo’s voice transmitted into our minds always sounded very gentle and sweet. Plus, Limo and the others all called you Mother. And you know how to sew and cook too, so... none of us ever really considered the possibility of you being male. Besides, according to the Duke, even if Lady Yumo transformed into a man, you would absolutely be an adorable boy! These clothes would still work!”
“Ah... wow...”
Yumo could not help rolling her eyes after hearing that explanation.
Sigh.
She really should have forcefully corrected the title “Mother” back then.
Also...
Was the voice she transmitted into their minds actually sweet?
Since she herself couldn’t hear her soul transmissions, she honestly had no idea...
Wait.
No, hold on.
Soul transmission...
Unless deliberately disguised, soul transmission naturally conveyed the original voice belonging to the soul itself into the minds of others.
And her soul...
seemed to have already been modified by that girl long ago...
Enmm.
Suddenly, Yumo finally understood why those girls had stubbornly insisted on calling her Mother all this time.
At that moment, Yumo finally solved a mystery that had troubled her for ages.
Afterward, the girl slowly raised her head and looked toward the restrained Saiboke with a complicated expression.
“You brat... don’t you have any spare butler uniforms in your luggage?”
“Hm? I do, but I’m over six feet tall! Lady Yumo, you’re barely over five feet! It wouldn’t fit you at all! More importantly, let’s hurry and discuss clothing styles instead! Lady Yumo, you should try this white velvet—”
Saiboke seemed ready to launch into another endless speech.
At that moment, Yumo let out a helpless sigh.
“Sigh... you should just stay quiet.”
The instant the order was given,
the vulture Abyss Demon viciously clamped its claw over Saiboke’s mouth again.
Seriously.
Every single time the topic turned to clothing, food, housing, or lifestyle, he became a completely different person.
Unbelievable~
After confirming Saiboke temporarily could not continue speaking, Yumo lightly leapt down from the giant stone and silently walked into the “fashion corridor” before her, carefully examining each magnificent outfit.
Honestly, she perhaps really had to admire Xiao’s aesthetic sense.
Every single outfit was beautiful and highly distinctive.
If they were worn on her body, they would probably make her look absolutely stunning.
‘Sigh... what the hell am I even thinking?’
Yumo awkwardly smiled and shook her head.
Even though her body had inexplicably turned female, she had absolutely no intention of wearing dresses.
Some things in life...
only existed as zero times or countless times.
Come to think of it, these clothes were all so beautiful and came in various sizes.
Maybe she should let Limo and Liyu wear them later instead?
Those two girls would probably become even cuter after putting these clothes on.
Just imagining her “daughters” carefully dressed up caused Yumo to grow interested.
Though Liyu should be fine.
That child was fairly obedient and would probably take care of the clothes properly.
As for Limo? freewebnσvel.cøm
Enmm...
Giving clothes to that girl somehow felt wasteful.
Every time she transformed back into her original form, she would probably destroy another outfit.
Looks like the education still had a long way to go.
After carefully observing everything for a while,
eventually,
Yumo’s attention landed on a black robe-like gauze outfit.
Compared to the other dresses, this one was far less feminine.
It wasn’t low-cut.
It didn’t expose the back.
Nor did it contain all sorts of gemstone decorations.
It was comparatively conservative and simple.
And black.
Yumo quite liked that color.
Actually, after seeing all these dazzling clothes, Yumo originally had no intention of wearing any of them.
She had initially planned to casually steal some clothes from the unconscious survivors of the Heavenly Punishment Holy Church and make do with those instead.
But after thinking about how long Saiboke and Xiao had spent preparing all this, Yumo decided she should at least give them some face.
Sure, the clothes were a little...
ahem...
But in the end, it was still their heartfelt effort.
‘Fine. I’ll just pick this one.’
After making her decision,
Yumo lightly snapped her fingers.
The vulture Abyss Demon immediately grabbed Saiboke and carried him out of the barrier toward the location of the survivors.
In an instant, Yumo became the only remaining person inside the barrier.
Silence once again returned to the area.
After repeatedly confirming there were no living people nearby, the girl removed the crudely-made fur garments.
Once more, she revealed that enchanting and seductive figure.
Her delicate body remained as smooth and pale as ever, flushed faintly pink beneath the skin.
So beautiful.
So enticing.
Although she had already thoroughly studied her new body the previous night, when it was exposed before her eyes again, Yumo’s little face still could not help flushing red.
It seemed she would still need some time before fully growing accustomed to it.
However,
although the girl’s body was perfect, there was currently one incredibly mood-killing piece of cloth covering it.
Namely—
the custom-made fuzzy boxer shorts Yumo had personally crafted the previous night.
She had absolutely no intention of taking those off.
After all, she still could not accept the so-called specially-made lace underwear Saiboke had brought.
If she truly wore that kind of underwear, her male dignity could probably be buried directly in the graveyard forever.
As for bras or chest wraps?
Did her tiny steamed buns even need those?
Whether she wore one or not made basically no difference, alright?
As for shoes...
Enmm, they were all way too flashy.
Forget it.
Going barefoot didn’t really seem like a problem either...
And so,
the girl slowly picked up the black robe-like outfit before her.
But at that very moment,
Yumo’s eyes suddenly narrowed.
A sudden clash of power violently entered her sensory range, causing slight astonishment to appear within her heart.
The girl slowly turned toward the southern region of the forest.
??
Hm?
That aura...
Holy Mana?
And Limo and Liyu’s power too?
Why were those two girls fighting with people from the Church?
