Chapter 51 - Chapter 51 (Shopping)

And Eta gave a sigh that it's true that Zero has no sense of clothing so he is also not good at judging either.

And Beta, Eclipse and Epsilon came in their new costumes and sat on their seats.

"What have you made for us today, Sister Eta?" Asked joyous Eclipse.

"Your favourite breakfasts!"

"Hooray!" Everyone shouted with joy that Sister Eta has made everyone's favourite meals today!

And Rem and Rehi arrived and joined them and started talking with each other and everyone.

But Zero was waiting for Alpha now and she and Delta finally arrived and Zero looked at her.

Alpha was wearing the most beautiful blue dress and Delta a red one which also pretty.

And all the girls blushed on their costumes and turned towards Zero to see what will be his reaction.

And Alpha asked with blushing, "Um... How am I looking Zero?"

And Zero thought for a while and said, "... Good."

And everyone was stunned and Rehi, Acid and Zeta started laughing... He can never be impressed by someone's beauty or costume!

And Rem caught Zero's collar with anger and shouted, "Good?! What do you mean by it?! Alpha and Delta are looking like angels and good?!!! Can't you compliment them better?!"

And Eta smiled with a sweat and said, "That's not possible, Zero doesn't has clothing sense receptors."

And Rem left with anger.

"This is the proof..." Delta whispered in Alpha's ear, "That he can never fall for a woman on her beauty or beautiful and hot dresses, he is someone of out of that league. He will love you no matter what, wether you still own your beauty or lose it. He never loved anyone of us for it."

And Alpha smiled.

"Now take a seat and gave breakfast, we have to go."

And Alpha and Delta took their seats and everyone enjoyed their breakfast.

"So... We are going for a mission, only you and me?"

Zero was walking in the streets and roads with everyone of his team, including Aize, and Zero has given Alpha a proposal for one mission.

"Yes, that's not too big but that's related to the beginning of the apocalypse... The star which fall last night previous from the beginning day of apocalypse."

"So was it related?!"

"It is completely related... Its story is completely related by a mythology and the truth is, when the stone fell, only priest or their related with asking for a wish can break the seal of the stone and then, the Apocalypse began, no one except priest or some related to him can only began the apocalypse... No normal person or creature can."

And Alpha, Rehi, Rem, Aize, Eclipse and Acid were surprised by hearing this, they never heard about it before.

And Alpha thought and asked, "Any idea who can be?"

"A student of our school."

And everyone was shocked that Zero has already caught who will would have done it?!

"... Will you like to give me some hint?"

"His house is near the spot of the stone landed and his family runs a shrine."

And Alpha got the idea who could be and got a smile with widened eyes and said, "... How you caught that it's him?"

"I saw him in our previous life going to the forest, at the stone where it landed and... Number of Monsters increased the next day."

And Alpha closed her eyes with a smile and said, "You are too much smart..."

And Zero smiled.

"... How many questions in school exam you could attempt with guarantee of scores and how many you used to attempt?" Alpha directly asked the question to prove what Zero's teammates told about him in the ship.

And Zero started sweating and answered, "Uh... I was most of the time able to attend all with guarantee--"

"And you used to get 50%, what about rest 50%?"

And Zero started sweating more and said, "... I used to leave them, you see, I thought that it was never worth to answer them."

And Alpha, Aize, Rehi, and Rem were shocked, "... It was never worth to answer them?"

"Yeah," Zero explained, "If I would have started attending all, I would have indeed scored 100, but what about the innocent toppers... I only used to study just for one hour everyday and rest of the time everyone knows what I used to do, spend time with Alpha, play chess with Aize and watch anime. But they se toppers, they were studying for 24 hours straight, I would have spoiled their hardwork."

And Alpha and Aize were left stunned.

And Eclipse was bored and said, "That's enough, I don't want to hear about education. That doesn't fits me, so let's focus on shopping. See, we have reached to the costume shops."

And everyone smiled and started walking towards the shops.

And everyone started shopping, everyone purchased new costumes, except Zero.

Alpha was asking from Aize if it's good or not and Eta, Eclipse, Beta, Epsilon and Delta were forcing Zero to at least test some, Zero was just saying yes on his costumes chosen by others and not even testing them. They five brought 30 new costumes and started shouting and forcing him to try!

"I don't want any costume or cloth or dress. You all try of your own." Said Zero and left with coins.

They all wanted him to get some new costumes because he is paying of everyone and he should also get some but he denied. And they can't even force him too much, he can become frustrated.

And Zero got out of the shop and Rehi, Acid and Zeta were standing there only and choosing no clothes and just talking.

Rem showed her new costume to everyone and they were suggesting and judging with girls only.

And Zero, Rehi, Acid and Zeta started walking away from them to explore more.

"Do you not like costumes?" Asked Rehi with a smile and Zero answered straight, "Like...? No then, I just wear to be protected from summer or winter, and that's it."

"And I never found a costume which I like," Acid said, "I mean, since childhood, my parents asked me to chose any, but... I liked none so I just used to say that whatever they wanted for me, they can. And whatever costume I have got, that was just fine."

And Rehi, Zero and Zeta smiled.

But suddenly Acid saw one costume on the showcase of the shop... And he has found his purpose!

Acid stuck to the glass in front of the costume and Zero said, "So he has given t his fate cloth?"

The shop was of male costumes and dresses and Zero caught Acid's wrist and dragged him in, Rehi and Zeta also entered.

And they four came in front of the receptionist and Zero slapped on Acid's back and said, "Speak it out"

But Acid was blushing because he has never asked anything from Zero or anyone.

"Um..." Acid was hesitating but suddenly the receptionist put her hand on his shoulder and asked, "Are you alright?"

And Acid completely blushed and just gave a direction to the showcase costume and she looked at it and asked, "Do you want that?"

And Acid nodded his head and she picked the costume up and brought it on the table in front of Acid and Zero and said, "By what will you buy it?"

And Zero directly said, "Gold coins"

"Oh, then it costs..." She looked at it and said, "50 gold coins"

And Acid was shocked... It's price is too high!

But Zero took out the coins and put it on the desk.

"Are you serious?! It's price is too high!" Shouted Acid but Zero put his arm on Acid's shoulders and said, "It's your first time that you are liking a costume, so don't hesitate and just try it."

And Rehi and Zeta also encouraged him and he finally went to test it.

"And you both also go and find for yourself. If you like any, just go for trial and I will pay it."

And Zeta saw a special dress for himself and started walking towards it.

But Rehi remain on the position.

"Are you not going to try?"

"A men's responsibility is to cherish his family, not himself. I guess I not deserve it."

And Zero laughed and said, "What a foolish you just said..."

And Rehi became upset that Zero is against his opinion, everyone has its own opinions.

"It's not like that, live fully with no regrets, if you like a dress, just go and try. You have a long journey with Rem, don't lack behind her, at least in costumes and clothing sense."

And Rehi smiled, and finally went to search of one.
