"Husband, I want to go shopping I want to go shopping!!"
Shizuka grabbed Sora's hand, her big, watery eyes blinking as she looked at him with a pitiful expression.
"Little Shizuka, are you sure? It's the apocalypse out there! The streets are filled with man-eating monsters. Are you really planning to go shopping with them?!"
Sora's mouth twitched. Although he knew that women had a natural inclination to shop, come on, sister, at least consider the timing!!!
"I don't care, I don't care! Husband, you promised to give Shizuka the most beautiful clothes in the world. Now Shizuka has no clothes left. Shizuka wants to go shopping, Shizuka wants to buy clothes!"
Shizuka's stubbornness kicked in. She grabbed Sora's hand and kept shaking it, refusing to let go.
"No clothes left? What happened to your clothes?"
Frowning, Sora was a bit puzzled. Normally, this little Shizuka was quite obedient.
"Wah… Husband tore them all…"
Puffing out her cheeks, Shizuka looked at him with a resentful expression.
"Uh…"
Sora's face turned red, and he felt a wave of embarrassment.
Now that he thought about it, it was true. With the other girls like Busujima Saeko out conquering the world, the only ones left at home were Shizuka, Saya, Kiriko Miyamoto, and Komuro Aoi for him to vent his excess energy. Every time he got excited, he had this habit of tearing clothes, and over time…
"Ahem, alright, I'll go shopping with you this time."
Rubbing his nose, Sora felt that he had to take responsibility for this. Fine, let's go shopping!
Of course, if they were going shopping, Sora would definitely have to accompany her. Although this little Shizuka was a bit clueless, she was sweet and obedient. If she went alone and got into trouble, he would be devastated.
"Yay, husband is the best!"
Shizuka jumped up with joy, her face beaming. Although among the girls, apart from Yuriko and Aoi, Shizuka was one of the older ones, her mentality was still that of a seven or eight-year-old!
But it was precisely this that made her even more adorable!!!
"Alright, go get ready!"
Shaking his head helplessly, Sora tapped her cute little head.
"Okay! Okay!"
Holding the spot where he had tapped her, Shizuka didn't mind at all and dashed into the house to get ready.
"Big brother, I want to go too."
Little Alice tugged at Sora's sleeve, her face filled with anticipation.
"Of course, Alice is so well-behaved!"
Picking up the little girl, Sora smiled warmly.
This was a little girl who was obedient, cute, and hardworking. Naturally, Sora treated her like a precious gem, nuzzling her forehead affectionately.
"Well, since you're all going, I might as well tag along to make sure you don't cause any trouble!"
Crossing her arms, Saya, the tsundere, made it sound like she was going out of a sense of duty, but it was clear she wanted to go too.
"Tehehe, Saya nee-san is being dishonest again!"
Even the little girl in Sora's arms could see through the tsundere's act, giggling as she exposed her. Sora, though used to it, couldn't help but give her a look of disdain.
"Ah! You little brat, after all I've done for you, I'll pinch you to death!"
Saya's face turned bright red, and she jumped over to pinch the little girl's soft cheeks, giving them a good squish…
"Wahaha, no, Saya nee-san is bullying me again…"
…
"What about you two? Do you want to come along?"
Looking at Kiriko Miyamoto and Komuro Aoi, who were exhausted from practicing their abilities, Sora asked with a sly smile.
Normally, seeing such an enticing scene, Sora might have pounced on them and given them a hard time. But today, he decided to let it slide.
"No, no, we'll pass."
Shaking their heads like rattles, the two women declined.
These past few days, whether day or night, they had been tormented by this big jerk. They had no energy left to go shopping!!!
"Well, if you're not going, take the day to rest at home."
Sora naturally understood their thoughts, but he didn't press the issue. They had been through a lot these past few days, so he decided to give them half a day off.
"Let's go, Shizuka!"
Carrying the little girl, Sora watched as Shizuka, now bouncing with excitement, ran out, eager to get going. With the three girls in tow, he left the castle.
"Phew…"
Exchanging a glance, Kiriko Miyamoto and Komuro Aoi both let out a long sigh of relief and collapsed onto the floor.
Before, when they were being bullied by that big jerk along with the other girls, they had felt incredibly embarrassed and found it hard to accept. Now, they were desperately hoping for their sisters to return and save them…
…
In the shopping mall, the unfortunate little police officer, Asami-san, leaned against the corridor by the window, her small head nodding off every now and then.
Yes, she was dozing off.
Yesterday, she was once again criticized by the surviving civilians. Asami-san felt extremely wronged, but she was a good girl with a proactive spirit. After serious reflection, she concluded that she must not be doing well enough, which is why people treated her this way.
Therefore, last night, this dutiful little police officer took on the night watch duty all by herself, staying vigilant throughout the entire night.
Clang!
"Ouch, ouch, ouch…"
Accidentally, her head bumped against the iron railing. The extremely tired Asami-san finally woke up, holding the small bump on her forehead, her face showing exhaustion and pain.
"Huh? What's that…"
Suddenly, seeing a scene outside the window, Asami was instantly shocked!
As usual, monsters were wandering around the shopping mall. But this time, she actually saw a few humans walking among the monsters!
A black-haired, black-eyed man holding a little girl, though a bit far away, gave off a very charismatic and handsome vibe at first glance.
A pink-haired, bespectacled twin-tailed girl, wearing a cute yet elegant black and white princess dress, walked on the left side of the man.
There was also a blonde woman with a cute expression, walking on the right side of the man, holding his arm, looking very intimate.
Well, Asami-san admitted, she was furious. What on earth were those two volleyballs or breasts hanging on that woman's chest!!!
"Ah, no, no!"
Knocking on her small head, Asami-san finally snapped back to reality. Now was not the time to think about such things!
"Hey, civilians over there, come quickly, it's dangerous!"
Asami was almost frantic with worry. How could these people be so foolish? Didn't they see the monsters all around?
Uh, actually, she completely failed to notice that the monsters hadn't paid any attention to those people as they walked by. It was only after her loud shout that the monsters turned towards them.
