43 Shopping

(A.N. As you can tell with me not uploading much, I may drop this novel. Mostly because I've thought about how flawed this novel is so far.

If I do drop it, I'll upload all 10 advance chapters from my pat reon here. And I'll probably reach up to the USJ attack.

I apologize if you've been looking forward to more, but I'm probably going to drop this.)

Diluc woke up and entered the kitchen. No one else was awake, perhaps because Momo, Izuku and him were the first to go to sleep.

Last night, he finished reading the last of Gehrman's books. Therefore, next time, he'd actually have to go out and fight and stop procrastinating.

He noticed that Mitsuki was sleeping on the couch, meaning the girl talk went on for so late that she crashed here rather than going home. The husband took the car, so she would have had to walk home which was a distance a drunk couldn't safely walk.

Her shirt was disheveled and rose to the point where Diluc could see a bit of her black bra. He averted his eyes and began making some 'hangover' food for the girls. It was just some scrambled eggs, which were a decent hangover food.

Yuria, Kath and Anri exited Diluc's bedroom with Momo in tow.

They seemed fine, seemingly not affected by the alcohol at all. Regardless, they ate.

Mitsuki woke up because of the noise in the kitchen and Izuku soon came down from his room as well.

Mitsuki had a massive headache which was evident because of her almost tripping and drinking a lot of water. Diluc had to force her to eat the scrambled egg and some medicine to go along with it.

Momo got her a small wet towel to put on her forehead so she could recover better and they let her use Diluc's bed to rest in.

She wanted to get home, but Inko wasn't awake yet and none of the girls had a driver's license.

It was a school day, but in the spirits of the day after a birthday added with the fact that no one was awake to make them go to school, the children stayed home for today. Izuku wanted to go anyway, but his voice was drowned out after Diluc turned on the T.V. to show the hero channel.

Izuku immediately shut up and sat down. Diluc thought about making an analysis book himself and writing down Izuku's fatal weakness to anything hero related.

Rather than admiration, Izuku's emotion when watching heroes was now determination to catch up or even surpass them. His new quirk was very good and had the potential to save many lives.

Inko soon woke up and inquired about Mitsuki, of course, she was told about her condition. However, just before she went to check up on her, she hugged Diluc with all her might and began wailing about his difficulties in the Dark Souls universe.

He made a mental note to punish Yuria later.

"I'm sorry, I've been such a terrible mother, I didn't even realize what you were going through." Her sobs reverberated through the whole house. Thankfully, Izuku was too absorbed to hear it, even the wall separating them didn't muffle the voice in the slightest.

Izuku accompanied Inko in checking on Mitsuki as the alternative was watching hero autobiographies.

They entered and found Mitsuki awake, not in as much pain but obviously still with a headache.

Inko went to rinse the towel in hot water again while Mitsuki conversed with Diluc.

"Thanks for helping me. I must look pretty pathetic, huh?" She laughed and instantly stopped because of the pain.

"Not as pathetic as you look after running on the treadmill for a while." He replied. She smiled in response.

"I'm surprised at how poorly you handle your liquor, or maybe you drank more than the others?" He inquired.

"Yesterday wasn't too bright for me, I had a couple more than the other girls." She averted her eyes from his gaze.

"And by 'a couple more', you mean?" Diluc asked.

"About twice as much as Inko had..." Mitsuki answered.

"Well, you can stay here as long as you want if you're still having family issues. Inko especially loves having you around, and training you is always fun." He said blankly.

"Awww, thank you. Although, when you say it so monotone it doesn't sound genuine." She laughed.

Inko returned with the wet towel and put it over Mitsuki's forehead.

"You're so lucky Inko, I can see why the girls love him so much." She spoke. Although it somewhat sounded like flirting, her expression didn't convey that in the slightest.

"I'm pretty lucky to have him." Inko smiled. Diluc left the room because of how awkward it was getting for him.

"We're resuming working out tomorrow." He spoke as he left the room.

By the time he left the room, Yuria, Kath, Anri and Momo had gotten dressed.

"Where are you all going?" Diluc asked.

"Get dressed, we're going shopping!" Momo spoke.

"Even if I don't wa-"

"C'mon, c'mon! We can get you some nice new clothes as well." Momo pushed Diluc back into his room to get dressed.

They passed by Mitsuki and Inko who were laughing at Diluc getting dragged to the closet where Momo stole basically every article of clothing to take back to the rest of the girls so they could try it on Diluc.

After an hour and a half of Diluc constantly having to change clothes, they were ready to leave the house.

Momo called a limo and they were off to spend the rest of that day filling their closets to the brim.

Many bystanders were envious of the boy being surrounded by multiple beautiful women; however, no one came to hit on them thanks to the multiple bodyguards surrounding them.

Momo, Yuria, Kath and Anri enjoyed themselves while dressing themselves and Diluc up.

Diluc... well, he endured it.

Not only was the constant undressing and dressing tiring, running around, filling their stomachs with good and drinks. It was weird how women were usually so reserved, but as soon as they got to a mall, they became so energetic, hungry and thirsty all at once.

There is nothing that can stop a woman from shopping when she got started. Diluc wouldn't be surprised if a villain came into the store, threatening to kill everyone, and seeing his girls just ignore the very dangerous criminal.

Regardless, Diluc was allowed to rest after almost 5 hours of running around, buying clothes. He now had double the amount of clothes he had beforehand.

The girls had triple the amount of his clothes, each and were walking out of the mall with large smiles on their faces. Of course, Diluc was the one that had to hold all the clothes which he delegated to his flying pillow instead.

They returned home and found Mitsuki healthy for the most part.

She was walking around and watching T.V. but still had the towel on her forehead and lying down for the most part.

"Glad to see you're doing better." Kath spoke.

"Yeah, thanks, the medicine helped a lot. I hope you all don't mind this old lady to stay here for a bit longer." Mitsuki replied.

Obviously, she was able to go home, even with a small headache. She was staying here to hide from her marriage as evident by her phone blowing up with messages, all being from, 'Husband'.

The fact that she doesn't even have his name in her contact is somewhat evident of the distance between the two, and the fact that he's blowing up her phone with messages is another. The fact, that she's calmly ignoring them, is another, another.

"You know you can turn off the notifications, right?" Diluc spoke. Mitsuki looked confused.

He walked up to her booming phone and moved a single button on it. The sounds instantly stopped. Mitsuki was quite surprised.

"You look young, but your age is showing." He spoke.

She pouted in response.

The next 15mins was spent throwing the newly bought clothes into the closet. Somehow, the girls were already finished with their clothes in fewer minutes despite having triple the amount to sort.

Diluc was slightly suspicious of them just throwing their clothes on the bed and leaving it for later.

Regardless, they all spent the rest of the night hugging each other and falling asleep.
