Welcome to the Multiverse Group Chat!!!

Chapter 144 ~ Gifts

Finishing the call with Sudharaja Puchita, the CEO of the largest internet company in the world, Alpha, he let out a deep sigh and returned to his conversation with his friends. 

Then, after a brief chat, he excused himself from the chat. 

Only an instant would’ve passed in this world since time stopped when he went on the mission in Lelouch’s world. However, for him, it had been so many months since he last saw Mira, Yuna, Nina, and Aika. 

And he couldnʼt wait another moment to see them again. 

Quickly making his way down the stairs, Yuuji saw his beloved family still in the living room, just like when he last saw them. 

And hearing they all looked towards the stairs and saw Yuuji coming down in a hurry. 

They all looked confusedly, wondering if he had forgotten something. 

But to their shock, Yuuji suddenly hugged them all one by one and kissed their cheeks. And the two Yin Yang Slime girls also went and jumped on them to peck their cheeks. 

“O-Oi, Yuuji?! Did you forget something? Didn’t you say you’re going on a mission?”

Aika, who froze for a brief moment upon being kissed, snapped out of her daze and asked in confusion. 

Yuuji had just said his goodbyes and went up to his room to go on his mission. But just a few minutes later, he returned. No matter how she thought about it, it was too soon.

“Yes, I did. And I’m done. Time stops in this world when I go to the other world for the mission. I’ve spent a few months in that world and I’ve just returned from it just now.”

Their eyes all widened in shock. 

They… They knew that the Multiverse Chat Group was a magical thing beyond their comprehension from Yuuji’s explanation last time. But, after Yuuji told them this, they couldn’t help but be rendered speechless once more. 

“That’s…”

Yuuji smiled wryly and shook his head.

“There’s no need to think of it too much.”

They all nodded dazedly. And soon, Mira finally snapped out of her daze.

“Ufufufu~ Was the mission successful? Are you hurt?”

“I’m fine, and yes. The mission was successful. Though, some things that were quite… unfortunate also happened.”

“Is that so… Can you tell us about it, Yuuji?”

“Of course.”

“Great~ Then, I’ll prepare some snacks and tea~”

Mira smiled softly and began making her way to the kitchen. 

“Ah, that’s right. Mira, just prepare some tea. I’ve got some nice rewards from the mission that we could eat together.”

“Oh?”

Yuuji then took out the set of five luxurious Purin Pudding from his inventory. 

And the moment he placed them on the table, Yuna exclaimed in surprise. 

“What?! I-Is that… Is that the rumored Purin Puddings I’ve heard about so much?!”

Nina, Aika, and Mira were similarly surprised when they saw Yuuji bring them out. 

The Purin Pudding was a brand of puddings that was extremely famous and delicious. It was considered the most delicious pudding in all of Japan that would always be sold out, despite its high price tag. 

To buy even one cup, they’d need not only money, but also luck since they’d often be sold out not even an hour into the shop opening. Moreover, the Purin Pudding was also only sold in certain seasons, making it extremely limited. 

“Yuu-kun, how did you get it?!”

“I got it as a reward from the gacha when I finished the mission. And speaking of which…”

Yuuji then brought out the luxurious coffee machine and placed it gently on the floor. 

And the moment he brought it out, Aika gasped, instantly recognizing it. 

“O-Oi, Yuuji-! T-That… C-Could it be…?!”

Yuuji smiled softly and nodded.

“Yes it is, Aika-nee. It’s the espresso machine you’ve been dreaming about. I got lucky from the gacha and got it, so here you go. You can use it for your cafe.”

She turned her head to him, her eyes still widened in shock and her hands trembling slightly.

“Are you sure?”

“Of course.”

Her face brightened and bloomed into a smile as she jumped into his embrace and hugged him tightly, pulling his face into the valley of her chest. 

“Thank you so muuuuch~!!!! I’ve always dreamed of having this~!!! Aaah, it’s such a dream come true~!!!”

Aika wrapped her arms around his head and pressed his face against her chest as she rubbed her cheeks against his head. 

“You’re welcome, Aika-nee.”

Yuuji smiled softly and hugged her back, thoroughly enjoying the sensation of his aunt’s massive, soft breasts against his face. 

Softly rubbing his face against them, Yuuji also took in a deep breath to take in her aunt’s flowery fragrant, causing Aika to blush.

However… she simply hugged him even more and squeezed her breasts against his face. 

This… This would be his reward for being so thoughtful. 

After he was released, Yuuji also took out the expensive bottle of wine and gave it to Mira.

“And this is for you, Mira. I hope you like it.”

Mira took the bottle of wine in her hands, and her eyes widened in shock once again when she saw and recognized the name of the wine she was holding. 

“Y-Yuuji, this is… Isn’t this a 1945 Grand cru?!”

The most expensive wine in the world, the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Grand Cru 1945, was an extremely well known wine for its intensely floral yet complex and deep flavor. And in addition to its taste, the limited number of bottles that existed in the world only made it even more sought after and expensive. 

It wasn’t something that could simply be bought with money. And Mira couldn’t believe she had it in her hands. 

“Yes. I got it from the gacha as well. And I think you’d love to have a taste and perhaps share it with Aika-nee and your friends.”

Mira looked at the bottle, placed it on the dining table, before pulling Yuuji into a hug.

“Thank you very much for such a thoughtful gift, Yuuji.”

“You’re welcome.”

Yuuji smiled and hugged her back.

Then, when everyone else were distracted, Mira secretly kissed him on the lips. 

“Fufu~”

After making a mischievous smile and adorable giggle, Mira separated herself from Yuuji, just as Yuna called her.

“Mama, can we start eating the pudding?!”

“Of course, dear~ You girls go ahead. I’ll prepare the tea~”

“Yaayy~ Yuu-kun, come and let’s eat together~ Which flavor do you want~?”

“I’ll take the remaining ones. You girls can choose first.”

Yuna and Nina excitedly picked the pudding flavor they wanted. Then, after Mira returned with the tea and Aika stopped fangirling and checking out her new espresso machine, Yuuji began telling them about the mission he just went on in the world of Code Geass. 

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

The next day. 

After telling his family about his mission, Yuuji also introduced them to Ai, the advanced, super intelligent AI program he had built with the help of the group chat. 

It didn’t take long for all of them to fall in love with the cute girl on the screen. They even began treating her as family and let them all into their phones and Mira’s computer. 

And right now, she was accompanying Mira and helping her with her work. By that… meaning they were essentially robbing money from the wealthy conglomerates and brokers on the stock market. 

Mira wanted to find out by how much she could exceed her record for the most profit she gained in a single day if she had the help of Yuuji’s stock market analysis application and Ai’s help. 

And when he heard about this… Yuuji couldn’t help but shiver at the thought. 

Would he be witnessing some major companies to suddenly go bankrupt by the end of the day…?

‘Well… I doubt she’ll go overboard…’

Yuuji thought, optimistically. He believed in Mira and her principles. And Ai would also be there with her. She won’t just let her “mom” destroy a part of the stock market… right?

Yes… She won’t. And Mira won’t do it in the first place either. 

Yuuji firmly believed in them, and thus, he put this in the back of his mind and made his way to Rose Cafe. 

He would be helping Aika install the espresso machine. And the moment he brought it with him, the other staff couldn’t help but look at it in shock.

“Oh my god…! Manager, we didn’t know you’d be buying a new espresso machine…!”

“This looks so expensive…! This must be more than a million yen…!”

“Manager, when did you get this?”

Aika smiled proudly at her staff and put her hand on Yuuji’s shoulder as he set up the machine.

“Hehe, I got it for free~ Actually, he bought it for me, as a gift~!”

““EH?!?!””

Their eyes widened in shock as they all immediately turned their attention towards Yuuji. 

“Alright. This should be good. I’ve connected it to the water outlet below the table. Now, all you need is to test it out.”

“Oh, thanks a bunch, Yuuji! How about you go ahead and test it? Or rather, you have nothing to do this morning, right? You should help me out with the cafe~ I’ll pay you handsomely~”

Aika winked as her eyes sparkled in excitement. 

Having seen how many more customers she got when Yuuji helped her out with the cafe, she knew she’d be able to rake in even more customers and increase the popularity of her cafe again if he works here. 

Moreover… She’ll be able to see him in the waiter’s uniform that accentuated his body and ass, and an apron to top it off~! She definitely wouldn’t miss the chance to take a photo of him in them again~!

“Eh? Well…”

Yuuji considered it for a moment. 

It was true that he had nothing planned for the morning aside from helping Aika install the coffee machine here. 

The only thing he had planned was tutoring the quintuplets this afternoon. 

He felt a bit bad for not being able to tutor them yesterday when Yotsuba asked him, since he was busy preparing to go on his mission in Lelouch’s world. So he asked her if she and her sisters were free this afternoon for tutoring. 

He immediately received an affirmative from Yotsuba. So, he quickly set up a tutoring session with them for the afternoon. 

“I have plans for the afternoon, but until then, I guess I can help out a bit…”

It wouldn’t be bad to spend some time with Aika and work in her cafe for a bit. Moreover, he could also use this chance to train the other staff in using the coffee machine so they could get used to it for when he wouldn’t be here. 

“Great~! Then hurry up and change~! We’ll be waiting here for you to explain to them how to use this thing!”

“Yes yes…”

Yuuji nodded and went to the locker room in the back of the store. 

And when he left, Aika turned to her staff with a stern look. 

“You guys… You know what this means, right?”

Every single one of them immediately tensed up. Their eyes reflected a mix of excitement, nervousness, and determination as they clenched their teeth. 

““Yes!””

Aika nodded.

“Good. Get ready… Because you will soon be facing a war!”

““Yes!””

“Let’s do our best! And if you guys survive… You’ll all be getting bonuses!!!”

““Yaaay!!!””

The staff all cheered in excitement upon hearing that they’ll be getting bonuses.

Knowing Yuuji would be working with them today, they knew there’d be a long line outside the cafe. They’ll be working non-stop until the afternoon when Yuuji left. It would be as their manager had said. A warzone.

But… With that many customers, they could sell out early. And if they sell out early, they could go home early and get bonuses on top of that!!!

There was no way they wouldn’t be fired up about this!

Even if they went through hell in the morning… They’d be able to enjoy the weekend and splurge freely!!!

“I’m sorry for the wait.”

Just then, Yuuji returned after changing into Rose Cafe’s waiter uniform. And the moment they see him in it… they knew they would be facing quite the challenge today.
