"Hey, Cole. I have a question."

"And what would that be?"

"Are we going to go to some fancy mall? Are you going yo pull out some fancy black card? Are we going to one in China or Korea? America is fine but it's in those countries where romance novels usually have something like that, right?"

Felicia had made Cole raise an eyebrow. It also made it clear to Cole that she was well-versed in the common tropes and cliches.

"I thought you hopped on board because of the 'spy mission' that would come to follow."

"Well, yeah. But then I realized the massive potential of experiencing all those romance novel cliches."

"Do you want me to give a 'kabedon' while we're at it?"

Cole was obviously joking but he then saw how Felicia was acting. She was fidgeting and acting all shy.

"Mmm... Maybe at another time..."

"What are you acting so shy for?"

Cole didn't say it in any sort of tone and it seems that this made Felicia highly dissatisfied.

"Bad! Isn't the tone you're supposed to use be all sexy and stuff?!"

'?!'

"Then you'll slowly lean in with a devilish smirk on your handsome face and then do the kabedon while I continue to go act shy."

Cole wasn't sure if he was to take some part of that sentence as a compliment.

"Feli, I'm pretty sure you already know what kind of person I am by this point."

"Well, it's still fun to imagine and-- Wait, what did you just call me?"

"Hm? Feli. It's easier to say and the twins did it too."

It was a pretty sound reason. Felicia didn't mind being called a nickname by the twins. She thought of it like being seen as an older sister by them. But she felt weird when someone that wasn't younger than her called her by a nickname.

It was the same in her time back〈Avant Zone〉. She never liked it when her mother or father called her by her name or when her teachers did. The same obviously went with strangers.

She couldn't quite exactly describe the feeling and why she felt so. Maybe it was the way they said it or it was just something irrational. But she didn't feel that way when Cole said it, she just felt nothing. This made her reach the only conclusion that's possible.

'Is this world BS act work?'

She also thought that she might have suddenly turned into the heroine of a shoujo romance novel when Cole transmigrated.

Cole, seeing her suspicious look and actions towards him (and maybe at the world or the heavens) and started fidgeting a bit. He was feeling unusually cheery due to the earlier incident but now he just thought of something that would stun the novel's heroine.

"...I can't?"

"..."

Felicia could hear thunder roar in the distance and electricity travel all throughout her body. Her mouth only had silence left inside of it. What had Cole done exactly besides raising that single question?


Simple, he used his looks and voice control to the fullest.

In other words, you know those anime girls that say that line? Think of Cole doing that but the feeling is a lot more subtle so it feels heartwarming and not as creepy if a grown man doing it. For all the romance readers with a fluffy male lead, think of that male lead doing that.

"SO CU--"

"Okay, shut up. Let's go already."

"But I still have to rage about how cute that was!"

"We're going. Now."

"But--"

"We've already put it off by a chapter and now by 541 words and counting."

"Aww... Fine"

Felicia was about to open a portal when Cole remembered he had something to show her.

He placed his hands on his 'headphones' and held them down with a bit of pressure. After that, a little click was heard and then he took them off.

All Felicia had to say was that her life up to that entire point was a lie.

And so they were teleported to somewhere in China with Felicia having recovered somewhat from the shocking revelation.

Cole also decided he would disguise the two of themselves this time around. He changed his hair into a deep blue and made Felicia have light-blonde hair at her request. As for why she chose such a colour, she said something about how it was in preparation if she really had to dye her hair.

He had also retracted the frames on his face so he wouldn't have to wear a mask.

'Being able to sort of freely change your hair colour and eye colour is pretty useful.'

〔The magic of science is amazing. Changing the chemicals being produced in your brain.〕

'Don't really care right now. Recover those broken memories already.'

〔Okay...〕

Once again, Steward was pushed into the background once more. Meanwhile, the pair had already made their way to a popular clothing store that was apparently high-end from what Cole could hear from the conversations of other people.

"So, I have to choose a dress that looks fancy yet lets me be not too conspicuous to be able to not cause too much concern with the women circles that are just full of juicy gossip."

"Glad you remembered."

Now, Cole was only here as the wallet and for some minor advice and consultation reasons. It may also to strengthen the relationship he had proposed or maybe just for a change of pace.

Cole wasn't well-versed in the art of describing dresses but he could tell which were appealing to the eye. He then noticed an emerald-green dress that faded into a lovely sky blue down the bottom. If paired with some gold earrings and some nice shoes.

He noticed another dress that was duller in colour, a red that was sort of dark and maroonish. The emerald one was a mermaid dress if he recalled correctly while the other one was a... Sheath dress?

Cole could definitely see Felicia wanting to wear it just so she could awe both women and men alike and lure the girls into walking into her honey trap. Cole was very glad for women society that Felicia was not born as a guy.

The last one his eyes were attracted to was a purple one that looked a bit like those full gowns that had a lot of ruffles but was a bit more simplistic. It had nice silver linings decorating it making it feel nice and elegant. There was a butterfly on the waistband and had somewhat of a lilac theme going on.

It was also the one that Cole liked the most. So, he moved Felicia's attention to those three dresses.

"Feli, how about those three?"

"Hm? Where?"

Cole pointed to each of the dresses locations consecutively. When she saw all of them, she felt very satisfied with Cole.

"Hoo~ You have pretty good taste."

They hailed over an available attendant who was a very nice person. They maintained a very professional attitude and gladly wen to get all three dresses. And it was only when they had fully made their way to the changing rooms did Felicia notice something.

"...Now that I think about it, this can be considered as a date. Is it one?"

"Hmm...."

Cole put his hand on his chin and pretended to think for a bit. He knew that it could be one so why not?

"...Maybe."

He said with a meaningful smile. Seeing that, Felicia just responded with one of her own and went into the changing rooms. After he saw her off, Cole stayed near the entrance in case she needed something and did a few things on his smartwatch.

He put on his headphones and linked them so he wouldn't have too much of a hard time talking and a hand on one of them so people could see he was busy.

"Hey, Lucille."

〔"Now, if it isn't my favourite descendant, what's up?〕

How did Cole have Lucille's contact? She registered it on beforehand and like his laptop, was made to be able to have contact with various different Zones. The signal and range? Magically fantastic.

"Long story short, Feli wants to join. Can you make another uniform? And change my vest to grey while you're at it. The pure blackness bothers me a bit, lack of contrast and all."

〔"Sure. I was hoping for Black Hollow to expand anyway. Oh yeah, if you're running an information agency of some sorts, want me to give you a few contacts?〕

"No need. I'll be just fine."

〔Well, okay then. Are you going to extend your services to the〈Avant Zone〉?〕

Cole paused for a bit. He had expected such a question to come up eventually. Cole knew that he shouldn't bring his personal feelings into something that would be a major part of his job but...

"...Not for now at least."

He let the call end there and continued to patiently wait. Cole made sure to thin his presence so looks wouldn't be gathered towards him like the first time he went to the〈Times Zone〉. Only a few seconds had passed when another call was being made.

〔Incoming Video Call: Felicia〕

'Hm? Feli? Is it because she wants me to see what she's wearing? Can't she just come out? Well, might as well answer it.'

As soon as the screen changed from the usual call interface, Cole could see a full body mirror. With a familiar woman dressed in black lingerie with nothing to cover her and a hanger of yellow in one of her hands.

Cole could stay awestruck by her figure but who did you think he was? Some simp that could only ever dream of a woman showing them some kind of favour. All that Cole thought that her talk about doing dancing/gymnastics wasn't a lie. She probably still did the exercises to this day.

〔"Hey, Cole. Which looks better?"〕

"What are you getting new lingerie for?"

〔"You never know if there's a lady that swings that way and will do me some favours for a night."〕

Cole let out a sigh. Well, he might as well get used to her antics than act like some boy in puberty that he definitely he wasn't. So, he told her his honest opinion.

"Black. Makes you look sexier and the striking contrast is what certain authors love to talk about."

Felicia somewhat expected Cole to respond that way but she couldn't help but pout at the absence of the boy in puberty reaction.

〔"Tch, you're no fun."〕

"At least I got balls."

"True that!"

And then the call was ended as fast as it came. Cole started to expect that there will be similar events happening in the near and/or upcoming future. While he was standing, he noticed two familiar figures and it seems they noticed him as well.
