[TSSIM] Chapter 461: A Masochist?
🕑 Added 2024-11-10 20:43:00 +0000 UTCTwenty minutes later, a new white bikini-style swimsuit with lace, different from Miyako's, was freshly made!
Homura walked up to the stunned Eriri with a big smile on his face and handed her the swimsuit.
"Eriri, mind giving it a try?"
"..."
Seeing this, the others were a bit dizzy, especially Fumino, Rizu, Uruka, Mafuyu, and Miyako who had shopped with Homura earlier.
Although he had said he would make a swimsuit for them, wasn't this a bit much?
Not only did he make it so fast, but it also actually looked excellent.
"Hurry up, try it on, and let me see." Homura urged.
"Yeah... we also want to see how the swimsuit Homura-kun made looks on you, Eriri." Utaha nodded, signaling for Eriri to go change.
Eriri still had a strange look on her face as she stared at the swimsuit in her hands, gently rubbing it to feel the texture.
She had to admit, the fabric quality was really good—in fact, it was better than the ones from swimsuit shops.
'So, it turns out he really can do anything... Maybe, like he joked before, the only thing he can't do is have a baby?'
Eriri was lost in thought for a moment before replying.
"Alright... I'll try it on. Just wait a second."
With that, she immediately headed toward Homura's room.
Seeing this, Homura raised his eyebrows in surprise, but the others acted as if nothing had happened.
Truthfully, given the relationship between them, there was nothing unusual about her changing in his room, right?
"Watching Homura-kun make a swimsuit so skillfully, I'm feeling a bit complicated..." Kotori remarked with a complex expression.
"Kotori-chan, you should get used to Homura-kun's surprises already." Nozomi shook her head with a smile. "We've seen this many times, haven't we?"
"Yeah, you're right..." Kotori nodded. 'But just thinking that Homura-kun's skills are because of us... it feels complicated..."
Nozomi: "..."
She had completely forgotten that Homura learned sewing when they had him make clothes for Rin!
It hadn’t been that long ago, yet he already had such a skillful hand and proficiency—she couldn’t help but feel he could truly pick up any skill at a glance.
At this moment, Eriri finally came out, having changed into Homura’s handmade swimsuit.
As soon as everyone looked at Eriri, they were stunned.
Sagiri’s eyes lit up, and she moved closer to Eriri, watching closely, her expression turning strange, looking like a pervert old man.
Eriri: "..."
Homura: "..."
Mashiro, not knowing where she pulled out paper and a pen from, was already ready to start drawing.
"So beautiful…" Kotori murmured, looking at Eriri with amazement.
Needless to say, the swimsuit really complemented Eriri's personality and stature, drawing everyone's attention effortlessly.
"Awesome!" Homura gave a thumbs-up. "I want to praise myself for making such a perfect swimsuit for you, but have you seen yourself, Eriri?"
Upon hearing his question, Eriri didn't seem embarrassed or nervous at all, but instead smiled confidently.
"Mm, I'm really happy with it! I have to say, Homura, your swimsuit is way better than anything in the shops!"
"Yeah, the fabric is really great…" Elf touched the fabric scraps on the coffee table. "With this material, plus Homura's skill—"
"Elf..."
Homura shook his head, cutting off Elf's words.
Elf nodded silently and didn't continue.
She wanted to mention that just the fabric alone probably cost more than many swimsuits in the shop, but since Homura didn't want anyone to feel overwhelmed, she stayed quiet.
"Elf-chan, what were you trying to say?" Hanayo asked, feeling a bit curious.
"Nothing... I just wanted to say that the swimsuit Homura made is definitely one of a kind!" Elf replied with a smile.
"Duh, it's all handmade by me, after all." Homura shrugged.
Seeing this, Fumino, Rizu, Uruka, Mafuyu, and Miyako remained silent.
Each of them obviously understood Elf's meaning.
After all, they had seen the materials Homura bought and knew how much he spent on them. If they compared them to the swimsuits they had just bought, the value of those fabrics alone was about equal to forty or fifty of their swimsuits, without exaggeration.
What if there were labor costs, supposedly even higher than the materials?
Wouldn't the swimsuit Homura made be super expensive?
They didn't even want to calculate it.
Homura tidied up his tools and then tossed the scraps into the trash bin.
"I'll finish up everyone's swimsuits one by one, so don't worry, everyone will get theirs eventually." Homura said as he headed toward the kitchen. "I'm off to cook. Anyone wanna join?"
"Anoo... can I join?" Fumino shyly raised her hand.
"Sure, just follow my lead." Homura nodded with a smile.
"If you want to learn cooking, helping Homura-kun is a great way to go about it." Nanami chimed in.
Upon hearing this, Nico glanced at Nanami.
"Nanami, with your current skills, you could be the head chef of a famous restaurant, right?"
Nanami's face turned a little red, and she smiled slightly.
Surprisingly, Nanami didn't argue with Nico's claim.
"Eh? What does that mean?" Fumino asked, confused.
"Well, recently, anyone who helps Homura-kun in the kitchen has their cooking skills improve really fast..." Kotori explained. "We've learned so much from him."
"At this point, they're all at the level of head chefs at famous restaurants..." Eriri chimed in, then scoffed. "Elf, I feel like you could even prepare a state banquet or something..."
Fumino: "..."
Mafuyu: "..."
"Is it really that extreme?" Uruka shuddered, then looked at Homura. "If Elf's already this good... then what about darli—Homura-kun, who's always been at the top?"
Upon hearing this, everyone stared blankly.
"Homura-kun is probably beyond anyone's reach..." Utaha replied slowly. "But I'm more curious about what name you were trying to call him earlier?"
Uruka: "..."
"I wasn't trying to say anything... It's just... darling..." Uruka muttered while fidgeting.
Seeing this, Utaha rolled her eyes.
Even though Uruka had been too shy to say 'darling' before, as soon as she was asked, she really said it.
Even the usually stoic Rizu looked at Uruka with a speechless expression.
"Sure enough, that nickname is too sly!" Nayuta exclaimed, puffing her cheeks. "It sounds like the intimacy level with Senpai is super high!"
"So, you want to use that nickname too?" Muramasa quipped, giving Nayuta a brief glance.
Nayuta: "..."
"Hana actually came back at me..." Nayuta muttered, feeling a bit surprised.
It was rare for Muramasa to pick up on someone else's words like that since she typically just retorted at Elf.
"Hana, roast me, please!" Elf leaned in with excitement.
Muramasa: "..."
"Oy, are you a masochist or something?!" Homura complained loudly from a distance.
"Of course not!" Elf snapped back. "I just think it's weird to see Hana act like this, that's all."
"Bruh, I don't think she's the weird one, but you, who asked to be roasted..." Homura shot back.
Elf: "..."
"Anyway, I'll pass on that nickname!"
Nayuta declared loudly, seriously answering Muramasa's question from earlier.
"Senpai is just my Senpai! And I claimed this nickname first!"
"Speaking of claiming things first..." Eriri chimed in, touching the swimsuit she wore. "Does this mean I finally claimed something first for once?"
Everyone: "..."
