Welcome to the Multiverse Group Chat!!!

Chapter 158 ~ Tooya City



Yuuji returned to his room, switched on the lights, and felt the deafening silence in his room he hadn’t experienced in a long time. As for once since the adorable twin slimes came to his life, he was truly alone.

 

After dinner, Alice and Aria, as well as Est and Ai stayed with Yuna and Nina to watch the video they took of his game and look at the pictures they’ve taken. 

 

Thus, he was left to his own accord, rummaging through his cupboard to find a luggage bag he could use for the trip and began preparing the things he’d need during it. 

 

And in just a few minutes, he was ready with a backpack of some shirts, pants, and underwear. 

 

He hadn’t brought much at all. Even this was actually too much for him since he had essentially everything he needed in his inventory. All the clothing and necessities he had prepared and bought from the other worlds during his missions were still there, ready for him to use just in case. 

 

He even had some female clothes that he had bought on occasion and planned to give to his girlfriends when they met. 

 

So, there wasn’t actually a need for him to pack up, aside from using it as a guise. After all, it’d be strange if he didn’t bring any luggage for trip. 

 

He set the bag onto the chair near his desk and laid down on his bed to rest. 

 

And just then, a message notification came to his phone.

 

He picked it up and looked at it, and to his surprise, it came from someone he didn’t expect. 

 

Morishima Haruka: “Yuuji-kun~ Are you there~???”

 

Her beautiful, smiling countenance flashed across his mind as he looked at Haruka’s message that radiated with the same brilliance and warmth. 

 

Tsubakihara Yuuji: “I’m here, senpai. Good evening. I didn’t expect to receive a message from you.”

 

Morishima Haruka: “Hehe~ Good evening~ Have you eaten dinner? What are you doing right now~?”

 

Tsubakihara Yuuji: “I have. I’m currently in my room. I’ve just finished packing up for the trip. How about you, senpai?”

Morishima Haruka: “I’m also just relaxing in my room after eating dinner. By the way, where are you going for your trip?”

 

Tsubakihara Yuuji: “I’m not sure the exact place, but I’ll be going to Tooya city.”

 

Morishima Haruka: “Tooya City? That’s quite far. What will you be doing there?”

 

Tsubakihara Yuuji: “My mother’s friend invited us for a small reunion and an overnight stay. So we will be staying in their household.”

 

Morishima Haruka: “Oh~ That sounds so fun~ Hey, can you take a picture of the scenery~? I’ve never been there before~”

 

Tsubakihara Yuuji: “Sure.”

 

Morishima Haruka: “Hehe~ I can’t wait!”

 

Morishima Haruka: “Oh! That’s right! There’s something I want to tell you!”

 

Tsubakihara Yuuji: “What is it?”

 

Morishima Haruka: “Don’t forget about our promise!!! You have to teach me how to play basketball on Monday, after school!”

 

Yuuji smiled wryly.

 

Tsubakihara Yuuji: “I won’t forget about it, senpai. But where should we do it in? I think the basketball club would be using it at that time.”

 

Morishima Haruka: “There’s a basketball field near my home. We can do it there~!”

 

Tsubakihara Yuuji: “I understand. Then, please just send the address to it.”

 

Morishima Haruka: “Okay~ Hehe~ See you then, Yuuji-kun~”

 

Tsubakihara Yuuji: “Mm. I’m looking forward to it.”

 

Yuuji smiled softly as Haruka ended their chat with an animated sticker of a cute, animated, cartoon bunny jumping around in excitement. 

 

And just as he closed his phone, Est, along with Alice and Aria who were perched on her shoulders, entered his room and Ai also appeared on his phone. 

 

“Are we going to sleep already…?”

 

Est tilted her head slightly. 

 

“Not yet. I’m just resting a bit.”

 

“Mm…”

 

She nodded, and approached her beloved master, climbed up the bed, and curled up against him as the slimes both jumped onto his chest. 

 

And as Yuuji made himself comfortable, surrounded by the Spirit Sword Sovereign, the twin Yin Yang Slimes, and the super advanced AI, he took out his phone again and began chatting with his friends in the group chat. 

 

Unbeknownst to him, the exact opposite was happening in one of rooms within the Morishima household, as Haruka rolled around her bed, squealing in excitement and kicking her legs around like a little girl.

 

“Aaaaahhh~!!!! I’m so excited~! I can’t wait for Monday!!!”

 

She screamed into her pillow. And when that wasn’t enough to release her excitement, she opened her phone once more to call Hibiki. 

 

That night would turn into a very long night for Hibiki as she was forced to listen to her best friend’s rant about Yuuji. 

 

And it wouldn’t only be because of how long Haruka would talk… 

--------------------------------X--------------------------------

With the twilight sky still barely lit by the morning sun that hadn’t risen past the horizon, Yuuji, Mira, Yuna, Nina, and Aika made their way to the station after having an early breakfast. 

 

Normally jam-packed in the morning, the station was still fairly quiet aside from a few early risers, store workers opening up their stores, and… “hard” workers, dressed in a full suit with a suitcase in hand, waiting for the first train to their workplace, despite it being a weekend. 

 

Seeing their glazed eyes and pale, exhausted faces… Yuuji couldn’t help but feel relieved that Mira was fortunate enough and didn’t have to go through such hell to raise him and the twins. And it motivated him to work harder, so no one in his family would have to suffer from such a faith. 

 

With luggages in hand, or at least the few they wanted to bring with them while the other rested inside Yuuji’s Inventory, the family made their way to buy a Shinkansen ticket to Tooya City. 

 

And when they were about to pay, Yuuji quickly paid for their tickets, shocking them.

 

“Yuuji? Why are you paying…?”

 

“It’s fine, Mira. I just wanted to pay for it.”

 

Mira’s lips curled into a slight frown. 

 

“I know that you’ve made quite a bit of fortune through your investments. But you should save them and invest them back.”

 

Mira admonished. 

 

Although he was a much more talented investor than her and was capable of earning money beyond what a regular high school student like him could even imagine, she’d much prefer it if he were to use the money he had earned for future investments. 

 

After all, a Shinkansen ticket wasn’t cheap. And he had just bought five of them. 

 

Yuuji smiled softly and took her hand into his. 

 

“I understand, Mira. But truly… I’ve always wanted to be the one to provide for all of you from now on. And now, I can. So please, let me take care of all of you.”

 

Their eyes all widened in shock, staring at Yuuji in disbelief as he smiled softly. 

 

“But…”

 

There was still hesitation in her heart. Although she was extremely happy to receive his feeling, ecstatic even, as someone who raised the boy since he was young and loved him both as a mother and a woman, Mira was still worried for him. 

 

She didn’t want him to fall into a habit of wasting money, even if it was for her and her family. She wanted him to keep his money so that he could build an even brighter future than she could imagine for himself, which she knew he could. 

 

And Yuuji didn’t miss the worry in her eyes. Thus… he decided to tell his family everything.

 

Everything about the assets he had earned from the Multiverse Group Chat Gacha. 

 

“...So, there’s no need for you to worry about money anymore, okay?”

 

Yuuji ended with a soft, gentle smile filled with his overwhelming love for them… And they all stood frozen in shock, especially Mira. 

 

With her deep understanding of world economics and the intricacies of corporate businesses and influence… She knew very well what becoming a major stakeholder of a massive technological company like iApple, and “owning” the largest multinational technology and internet company as well as the largest multinational package delivery service company could mean…

 

The world… 

 

Yuuji had the world in his hand…

 

Without her even knowing, her little boy already had fingers controlling the strings of the world economy. 

 

With just a small tug, a few words from his lips, he could easily raise businesses to the world stage, or bury them underground completely. 

 

How could she not be shocked…!!!

 

“Now, how about we buy some snacks for our trip? It’ll be my treat.”

 

Yuuji winked before wrapping his arms around the girls and pulled them around the stores that had already opened, buying some snacks and drinks that he knew they liked, as they were still reeling from the shock. 

 

It was only after they boarded the shinkansen did they finally snap out of their shock. At least… a bit. 

 

They were still reeling from it. And although they were happy for him, the shock from finding out that their beloved Yuuji was actually one of, if not, the richest man in the world, was not so easy to recover from. 

 

So, he spent the rest of the time in the Shinkansen calming them down. He held Yuna and Nina’s hand tightly in his, and talked with Mira and Aika to distract them from his revelation. 

--------------------------------X--------------------------------

Arriving in Tooya station, Yuuji and his family immediately headed outside the station, where a chauffeur would pick them up. 

 

Considering how far their home was from the station, Mira’s friend, who had invited them for the overnight stay, had arranged a car to pick them up so they wouldn't need to find and pay for a taxi. 

 

As they walked and looked around for the chauffeur, all five of them attracted many eyes. After all, it was extremely rare for such a beautiful and dazzling group of individuals they’ve never seen before to come to such a small city. 

 

With her hair loosely braided to the side and rested over her shoulder and dressed in a beautiful, long, white sundress that loosely hugged her full, voluptuous body, Mira had attracted the most attention from men. Although her face was slightly obscured by the large straw sun hat with a beautiful lily flower on her head, the small glimpse they managed to catch was enough to make them take a second and third look before freezing in awe. 

 

Meanwhile, to her sides were two identical twins who looked like a younger version of her. 

 

Yuna was dressed in a shoulderless, light pink top and a white skirt that flowed down just above her knees. While Nina also wore a similar top and skirt, but instead of light pink and white, they were light blue and light yellow. 

 

Standing to their side with her hands on her wide hip, Aika stood as she looked around, tyring to find the person Mira told them would be picking them up. She was dressed in a white, collared shirt with two buttons unclasped, revealing the top of her deep cleavage, and tight, blue jeans which clealry accentuated her round butt and long, slender legs. 

 

And lastly, Yuuji was dressed in a simple dark navy collared shirt with a button unclasped, revealing the necklace with silver chain and obsidian gem around his neck, and long, white pants. 

 

With their natural appearance, in addition to their immaculate dressing, it would only be natural that they’d quickly become the center of attention of everyone in Tooya station. 

 

Fortunately, they didn’t have to stand around for too long under the sun and the gazes of everyone around them as they soon spotted a beautiful woman with short, light blond hair, dressed in a full suit, standing in front of a black, large, luxurious SUV. 

 

Seeing her figure, Mira immediately recognized her and led everyone towards her. 

 

“Stella-chan~! It has been quite a while~! How are you~?”

Stella turned to the beautiful voice and froze with her eyes widened in surprise the moment she saw Mira. 

 

“It has been years since I last saw you, and you’ve grown into such a beautiful woman~! Ufufufu~”

 

The jaws of her mouth slackened slightly as she couldn’t help but stare at Mira, dumbfounded. 

 

Yes… As Mira had said, it has been years since they’ve last seen each other. That’s why, Stella had expected to see the beautiful woman she considered big sister when she was young, to have aged, even a little. 

 

But in contrast… Mira looked even younger and even more beautiful than before!!!

 

“I-It has been a long time, Mira-sama… I am glad to see you in good health. I have also been well. Thank you very much.”

 

“I’m glad~”

 

Then, her eyes turned towards the two twins who immediately approached her and greeted her with beautiful smiles.

 

“Stella onee-san. I’m happy to see you again.”

 

“Yuna-sama, Nina-sama. I’m happy to see you again and well.”

 

The two bowed courteously, and Stella also smiled fondly at them. Yuna and Nina might’ve only met her once, and briefly at that, when they were young. Most of the time, they would be with her half sister and rarely talked with anyone else. So for them to still remember her made her happy.

 

“Yo, Stella. You seemed to be doing well.”

 

Stella then turned towards Aika, who was a high school delinquent the last time she saw her. But now, she seemed a bit more proper and… gentle and mature, which was most likely thanks to the genes she shared with Mira. 

 

“It has been a while, Aika-sama. It is nice to see you again.”

 

Then lastly, her eyes turned towards the sole male member of the family, and her eyes widened once again.

 

“Stella onee-san. It is nice to meet you again.”

 

He bowed courteously. But the moment he smiled at her… the heart that had always been calm and stead, began thumping wildly.

 

She fell into a daze… But a few seconds later, she quickly snap out of it

 

“I-It is nice to see you again as well, Yuuji-sama. Please forgive me. You’ve grown so much since I’ve last seen you and I failed to recognize you for a moment…!”

 

She quickly bowed her head, not in an effort to apology, but to hide her reddening cheeks 

 

To think she would freeze in front of a boy much younger than her and acted so unbecomingly of a butler… She wanted to dig a hole and plunge her head into it!!!

 

“No no, it’s fine. I understand. I’m just happy that you still recognize me.”

 

She could feel her heart tighten and her face heating up with every word that came out of those sexy lips. 

 

She was… truly caught off guard. Who would’ve expected that the regular, young boy who loved his twin sisters, his step-mother, and step-aunt a bit too much and could never be separated from them, would grow up into such a handsome young man that could make even her heart flutter…!

 

Hah… I wonder how Sena would react when she saw her “cute Yuu-kun” now…

 

Perhaps… she would return to being the sweet, adorable, little girl she was in the past again…

 

Stella fell into a thought for a moment before quickly shaking away her idle thoughts and opened the door to the car. 

 

“Well then. Everyone, please enter. We shall start our journey to the Kashiwazaki Estate promptly.”
