Chapter 128: Michus first time with a friend in real life (2/2)
”He smiled!” Michu commented sneakily!
Yue stopped promptly and peeked at her son's face, but that fella already returned to his initial, boorish countenance without much emotion on his face!
”I saw it!” Yue lied and played together with Michu!
Both of them were bullying this man while preparing clothes for him.

[An hour later.]
”I've had enough. This is too much,” Zerze stopped his mother and left the shop.
”I think he is right,” Yue sighed, ”I went a little overboard, but we finally spoke like a normal family after so long...” The lady's expression was all bright nonetheless.
And this was rewarding for Michu as he had his hand in it!
He felt like he helped family!
”There's nothing better than a family's support! I am glad I could've helped you two!” Michu rubbed his nose and cheered her on, ”I think he will visit you more often now! And if not, then I will invite him to a party and tell him to dress well!
”I'll take you on that,” Yue replied, then gave a peck of farewell for Michu! ”Have fun and look out for Yuki.”
”Okay! Hehe!” Michu scratched his hair embarrassed, then turned around and left the shop while still keeping a blush on his face.
Once he caught up to Zerze, the cold eyes turned to him, ”This old hag. Don't let her play around with you because of that Harem Law.”
”You don't like Harem Law?”
”I don't.” Zerze replied, then added, ”But I am curious about his marriage and that big harem family he allegedly has. I also want to... speak with Feng.”
”I thought you wanted to hang out with me,” Michu said and scratched his cheek with a pout!
Zerze didn't look back at him and looked to the side.
This told Michu that Zerze wouldn't go to that wedding nor he would've been interested in it were he not to be here!
Therefore, the monke smiled and asked, ”Do you know how to dance?”
Zerze usually wouldn't care about dancing and he would've plainly answered 'No'. However, his mind shook with memories from the past.
[Yuki! Mommy will teach you some nice moves!]
[No.]
[Dance with big sister! Yuki!]
[No.]
It was only now that Zerze understood he'd forgotten a lot about his family.
Everyone has one or two good things about them. And flaws were what followed those good things.
Though jarring, Zerze should've accepted those flaws and helped his mother establish her shop much, much earlier.
With their father's insurance, they would've been able to do it!
”Is that silence a yes?” Michu asked.
”It's a no, actually.” Zerze faintly smiled and shocked his friend! That smile came straight out from Zerze's heart, ”Remember what I asked you before The Final Game?”
”Yes,” Michu replied thoughtfully because that question was serious!
”Thanks.” Zerze just replied with a much milder and appeasing tone, leaving Michu wondering whether his relationship with his mother used to be that bad!
Lil Monke just nodded, ”I like helping, so it's nothing!”
”Sure. How is it going for your girlfriend? It looked like she already had a plan after our battle,” Zerze asked.
Winning and losing.
That was normal and everyone expected it at some point, but people often found it troubling how to cope with it.
Michu's girlfriend was different.
”Hehe! Yumi became stronger! As strong as me!” Michu answered with a proud countenance! He raised his chin and shared his happiness with Zerze.
Zerze replied, ”Should there be a second round, our clash will be much harder.” Although as strong as Michu meant that her class was on his level, Zerze sneered and looked forward to what future and Yumi had prepared for him.
Michu then went all out and told about her snake race, ”You see! In the beginning, Yumi couldn't move well and her tail wrapped around me on its own.”
”Hmm.”
”But I later found out that she wanted to just cuddle! I found it on my own.” Michu flashed another proud smile. ”After this journey, I expect to see Yumi miss me so much she will cuddle in both a game and real life! I am the one to scheme right now! Haha!”
Zerze stifled his laughter as their relationship was kinda innocent and cute, but it also wasn't hard to imagine the snake turning vulgar and honest for her boyfriend.
With how smart she was, Zerze could only imagine how much fun that Venomous had with her boyfriend.
And that fun was as genuine as her love towards him.
”Do you have someone you love, Zerze? It's hard to tell in the beginning, you know? But it just gets much better and sweeter after you confess!”
”I don't have time for that,” Zerze cut Lil Monke!
But Lil Monke believed that there were a lot of partners that could travel in the game world together with his friend, ”Maybe you will find one at the wedding! Feng has a big family!”
”If there is something that The Impossible Quest taught me, it's that I know I can sacrifice anyone for my goal. Hence, it's impossible for me to get a partner.” Zerze replied.
He chuckled at the 'impossible' conclusion.
”I heard you sacrificed someone on that quest.”
”A person from my guild. Not a big deal.”
”I see... A lot of things happened today, but I learned how fun it can be in real life to spend time with others. It was exciting! And it should be more exciting, right?”
”...Right.”
