Bonding with the Mother-in-Law II

She's a woman of words, Fia managed to convince her daughter to come with me and get me some clothes, I walked alongside her with my hands in my pockets, enjoying the sight... as I said... I don't really care about clothes, I told them both, but...

'Master! you need to start thinking about your image and how mighty you are and status and blah blah blah...'

Something like that she said.

I love my silver-haired maid, don't mistake it. But sometimes she's too straight, I hope she will mellow up with time and enjoy breaking rules as much as I do. Showing to this banquet oR whatever in my Dragon Form was something I was quite fond of doing but... aish.

"What are you thinking?" Fias asked me, seeing me drifting on my own thoughts.

"I'm thinking which would be the best angle to come down flying~"

"Huh? no, definitely not!"

"Here we are, this is the best shop that I know of in the Lucifuge Territory, Louise Veiton~"

Fia said as she pointed at the grandiose clothing store as if she were the owner. We entered the shop and it was indeed quite luxurious inside, there were devils that I recognised were nobles if only for the servants that they had around them. Other than them, the shop was almost empty. There was all sort of clothes around that I inspected while Fia led me.

"Lady Lucifuge! It is a pleasure to have you here! we will close the shop right away!" The people behind the counter went haywire and even the customers with their servants began bowing frantically.

'They're from one of the lower families, you don't need to be concerned about them, let's go!' Fia pulled me upstairs, clearly not her first time around.

When we arrived there were already several attendants waiting for us, they bowed deeply towards us before addressing Fia.

"First take his measurements please, I want to see all the season suits you have for his size and I also want to order some custom ones to be delivered to my castle in two days~"

"Yes, my lady!" The women took out measuring thingies as if they were guns and glared at me before smiling, "My lord, please disrobe~"

"..." I nodded and took out my shirt first, there weren't many garments on me anyway... golden trousers and a golden shirt.

The moment my shirt fell on the ground, I heard gasping before the three ladies recomposed themselves and began measuring me up.

"The trousers, my lord".

I heed and took out my trousers, another gasp.

That's because I wasn't wearing this underwear that people here use.

!!!

The attendants blushed so deeply that I thought they were about to pass out. As for Fia, I shot her a glance and she wasn't blushing, but compared to the attendants, her gaze on my crotch was the firmest and unashamed.

"Oh, for the satans... my poor daughter~ you've been torturing her, aren't you?~" She giggled at me before addressing the gasping girls, how rude of them to not stop looking by now.

"Could you girls bring me some underwear for him? thank you~"

"M-My lady... I don't think it is going to fit..." The attendant's lips shivered and they both stood up and began walking to the stairwell, however, their gazes never left me as if I was going to ravage them the moment they turned around to flee.

"Bring it anyway, it must fit somehow. Isn't that right, son-in-law? it always fits~" She giggled and I lifted up my eyebrows, not getting what she meant. But nonetheless, her words contained a mature allure that called for my attention and she kept waving her beautiful silver braids constantly.

"Indeed" If it doesn't fit, I'll make it fit.

I'm starting to like this mother-in-law more and more.

She wasn't ashamed to look at my crotch and my body; size me up and down. I think mothers-in-law in Helius could learn something about 'bonding' from the ones in this small universe.

I walked around this floor, looking at the suits and stuff they had exposed for the customers while Fia followed me, also... I was naked.

"Do you see anything to your liking?~" She asked me; standing beside me with her hands on her back, puffing out her proud chest clad in white robes. I felt her shooting periodical gazes at my crotch, she couldn't ignore it.

I sighed, there isn't really anything that interests me. Why are mortals so compelled to cover themselves? it is so comfortable to not wear anything and just lay down on top of a mountain of gold coins.

"Nothing comes to mind," I said.

"That's sad, but I can imagine... packing something like that... it must be uncomfortable for you, Richter~" She giggled and guided me to the next section.

"You didn't call me son-in-law~"

Her words made her stop the two of us abruptly; the lady walked up to me subtly and tiptoed, she whispered to me, "I'm sorry, for a minute... I couldn't see you as my son-in-law, it won't happen again~"

"Don't you think you're too close for comfort?" I questioned her suspiciously, not that I mind... but I'm starting to wonder if interpersonal relationships are so different between Helius and this world, compared to Layla, Fia seems to be so outgoing and free.

"Does it make you uncomfortable? if so, I will move..." She said, rather downcast.

'Haha~' I guess I only need to get used to this world temporarily, "Not at all, mother-in-law"

I went as far as to pull her against me, and for the first time ever since we met I saw Madame Lucifuge blush much as her daughter does.

Her heart palpitated furiously and she refused to look at me or my body with this much proximity between us.

"Since you're not ashamed to have this intimate bonding, why would I?~"

She placed her arm around my waist and rested her head on my shoulder, I took a nice whiff of her silver hair before she spoke to me in a relaxed manner "You're so warm... Richter"

There it is again; even though she just said it wouldn't happen again. Fia noticed quickly if her sudden shiver was anything to go by, but Lady Lucifuge was definitely not going to point it out and neither would I.

"I envy my daughter immensely, she found herself such a mate that loves and craves her so... it feels as if she grew up so fast that I couldn't enjoy her properly".

We remained just like that, her hand was caressing my chest as I caressed her waist until she spoke, "Richter, you've had children haven't you?"

"How do you know...?" I frowned.

"Despite your strength... the way you interact with children, it is as if you have experience" I guess she's talking about back in the castle.

"I have only one child, a son... his name is Horlein Golden-Haze" I smiled and she caught a glimpse of that.

"You love him, don't you? I can recognise that gaze, my late husband used to look at Grayfia like that~" I felt how her hand began caressing my golden hair.

"I do... he's quite talented and... makes daddy proud I guess" That scratched my nose, that brat... when he left the cave he was already quite strong.

"How old is he?" Fia asked offhandedly.

"He should be about nine thousand years old I believe," I asked with a little doubt, trying to calculate it in my mind.

!!!

Fia froze, "W-What...?" she gasped and looked at me in disbelief. Then her expression twisted several times between confusion and understanding.

"It makes sense... you're a hundred thousand years old Dragon God, aren't you? if anything... you had your first son quite late..." She tapped her lips in consideration.

"Indeed, I was never fond of having children until I met my wife... I guess she made this dragon settle down" I clicked my nose, not regretting anything.

"To think your son is already so old compared to me, I'm merely two thousand years old~" She spoke in a rather depressed manner, I can understand that gaze... mother-in-law, you're exposing yourself too much.

"Doesn't that make you quite young?"

"It does fufu~" My words revitalized her.

We chuckled, giggled and chatted; too close to one another to the point she seemingly forgot I was in the nude. All was happiness until some steps were heard from the stairs and Fia quickly moved away from me, I noticed that with intrigue as she evaded my gaze.

The two ladies from prior came bringing several suits and also underwear.

"My lord, we have what you need, could we help-"

"No need, I will assist him myself, you two can retreat" Fia's voice was cold, she directly walked up to the attendants and took the clothes from them.

"But my lady, it wouldn't be correct".

"Are you saying that you can assist my son-in-law better than me?"

I saw how the walls began to freeze and the servants flinched before their gazes looked at me with confusion, I guess they found my expression different from that of Sirzechs' and now confusion remains.

With Fia's killing intent in the middle they ended up leaving us alone on the second floor, Fia smiled my way after they were gone and took me to the nearest couch.

"You have never worn anything like this, right?" She inquired.

"Never".

"Will you need my help then?~"

I looked at the garments and took one of them. They felt comfortable and they are surely complicated to wear compared to my simple trousers and shirt beforehand.

"Your expression tells me you will need my assistance. Then how about you put on some underwear first before I do something that we would both regret?~"

I raised my eyebrow at her statement, Fia was standing there like a cute mummy, as if the slutty words she just said I had imagined, but I'm definitely not insane.

"Ho?~"

"Or could it be that you're going to need my help?~" She bent forward, keeping the smile.

It seems my relationship with this mother-in-law won't be simple at all.
