Chapter 68: Not Listening
"Master, Marin-san has changed into the dress," Grayfia was the one who opened it.
"I can see that," Yuuya spoke seeing Marin looking at the body-sized mirror with an expression full of shock and amazement.
Marin looks like a striking and mysterious figure. Her long, glittery-pink acrylic nails add a touch of glamour and femininity to her look. The black shoulder-length wig with a violet tint gives her a mysterious and alluring appearance.
While her purple color contacts and red eye shadow add a touch of drama and intensity. Her shaved and redrawn eyebrows also help to mimic the expression of the character she is cosplaying, adding to the overall effect.
The black maid gown she is wearing is sleek and elegant, with frills that add a touch of femininity and grace to her look. The brown leather choker and the chain that extends from it add a touch of edginess to her outfit.
The rose embroidered pattern on the top layer of the dress and the black rose embroidered stockings, along with the tulle and garter belt, all work together to create a cohesive and polished look. The black platform heels add height and elongate her legs, making her appear even more striking.
Marin's overall look in this outfit is one of elegance, mystery, and allure. This statement would be true if…
"Eh? is that Shizuku-tan, No that is me, W-Wait I am Shizuku-tan??? Are you Freaking kidding me!!!! I am Shizuku-Tan," Marin pointed at the mirror and was swooning over her look.
"Yuuya I am finally Shizuku-tan, I am her, I feel like crying," Marin had tears well up in her eyes.
"Don't cry or you'll ruin your makeup and dress," Yuuya said flatly.
"You are so mean Yuuya, I am finally Shizuku-tan how can I not cry out of happiness?" Marin pouted but she stopped since Yuuya was correct. Grayfia helped her with the make-up and she was a bit surprised to know that she was the one who cut the wig according to Shizuku's hairstyle.
"Yes you look like Shizuku-tan but if you cry you won't," Yuuya sighed at the super-excited Marin beaming with happiness at his words, he knew she didn't even register his last words.
"This dress is Super cute, Like really, What's up with this comfiness, I thought it might be a bit tight but I can move so naturally," Marin moved her arms around and didn't feel constricted by the dress.
"That is good," Yuuya nodded seeing that the clothes were a good fit for her.
"It is like this was made for me…..Wait isn't it made for me, man I am so happy that my brain isn't functioning, hahaha," Marin laughed loudly checking herself out in the mirror as Yuuya sighed.
'At least she is happy,' Yuuya thought as Marin quickly turned towards him.
"Photo, I wanna take photos, Yuuya quickly, fast," Marin said as the tears vanished as fast as they had appeared, she was finally able to become her favorite character, how can she not take photos?
"I'll take one from my phone," Yuuya said as he took out his phone and opened the camera. He was about to take a photo but…
"…Marin, I haven't seen Shizuku-tan grin like that," Yuuya said while looking at the photo.
"It's Ha~~rd you know? I still can't hold back this grin, Like how can I? I'm literally Shizuku-tan," Marin still had that wide grin looking at the photo. Shizuku was supposed to be calm and serene with a hint of coldness, she didn't grin like a fool unless it was Cough* Cough* Scenes.
Even after a few more photos, Marin couldn't stop the weird grin before she finally got the expression down. Yuuya clicked the photo as Marin kept a straight face while looking extremely calm.
"Yuuya why are you silent? did I make that face again?" Marin asked in worry.
"…No the lighting isn't good in this room," Yuuya said as he turned around and walked toward his office.
"Yuuya?" Marin was a bit surprised.
"Master wants to change the location, Let's go Marin-san, Also would you like to know some tips on holding your expression?" Grayfia said leading the way for Marin.
"Oh! Yes yes, of course, Grayfia would know," Marin was pumped since Grayfia was a maid and they were actually trained in manners and etiquette, And Grayfia seemed to be in a league of her own in such things.
As Grayfia gave Marin some tips they reached Yuuya's office and Marin was wide-eyed.
"What the hell? This is awesome," Marin was greeted by a grand room with tall windows that offer views of the backyard.
The walls were covered in rich cherry paneling and the ceiling was adorned with intricate plaster molding. The floor was covered in a plush silk carpet, and the room is illuminated by an antique chandelier hanging from the ceiling.
At the center of the room stands a large, hand-carved cherry desk, which is a genuine antique piece and dates back to the 18th century.
The desk only had a computer and communication system along with a few other things like tablets and a laptop. The room also featured a fireplace with a marble mantel, a collection of silver candelabra, and a set of antique globes which add to the aristocratic atmosphere.
The room also features a collection of fine art and antiques, including a series of oil paintings depicting landscapes and portraits of historical figures, a collection of porcelain vases, and a set of antique books.
The bookshelves are filled with leather-bound books along with some light novels and mangas, adding a sense of intellectualism and culture to the space.
The room was upgraded from the last time, but Yuuya stopped caring for it since Apophis kept on adding something new every day. He really didn't care as long as the things he placed weren't moved.
"Let's take the photos quickly," Yuuya said as Marin happily complied, she didn't really care about the lighting or whatnot and just wanted to take more photos.
"This room is also like an upgraded version of the Student Council Office in slimey girls, It is totes perfect for the shoot Yuuya are you a genius or what?" Marin said as the last room was of traditional Japanese design while the game had a more modern setting. And this office suited the setting of the game perfectly.
After a number of photos, Marin laid down on the table in the middle for the next photo. She was careful as to not knock over anything and only did it after asking Yuuya.
"The table is the place where the first scene takes place, Also Yuuya hold this chain and make sure it comes into the photo with your hand," Marin said as she wanted to recreate a scene from the game, It was the scene right before Shizuku's first adult scene in which MC holds her by the chain that is connected to the choker on her neck and guides her to the table, where you know what happens.
'…Maybe I should also… No, No let's store that thought away for now,' Grayfia's face didn't change but her mind has been to hundred different places in a matter of a second.
"Alright that's the end," Yuuya wasn't in the mood to take any more pictures so Marin took his phone to check the pictures taken.
"Uwaah~! This is killer, like sup~~er killer, I didn't know that changing the room would result in such a difference," Marin was shell-shocked as the photos showcase her costume's intricate details and bring out the best in her appearance.
So much so, that at this point Marin felt like she was seeing Shizuku-tan rather than herself, It was that good. The room's sophisticated atmosphere along with the different decorations helped to bring the photo much more life and realism.
"I am posting this like right now, Ahhhh~ I can't, This totes feels unreal," Marin quickly created an account and uploaded the photos.
"Cooked rice?" Grayfia blinked looking at the username Marin chose.
"It is Manma, well it can also be read as cooked rice, hehe~," Marin smiled sheepishly at Grayfia's sigh.
"What do you think Yuuya?" Marin was waiting for a response in hopes he would approve it.
"It seems like a fitting name for you," Yuuya said while looking at Marin.
"I don't know if I should that as a compliment or not," Marin laughed in confusion but soon forgot it as she had something more important to do.
"No," Yuuya said flatly.
"I totes got rejected without even getting a word in," Marin was more amused at the situation than getting sad.
"No," Yuuya said again before Marin could say anything.
"Come on it will be fun," Marin ran after Yuuya trying to convince him to go to the cosplay convention held tomorrow.
But Yuuya kept on refusing till Marin had no choice but to unleash her ultimate technique.
