I Own the Multiverse's General Store!
Chapter 48 - A Call?

Chapter 48: Chapter 48 - A Call?

Lucius walked upstairs, and immediately he heard the voices of the three girls.

All of them seemed to shout at each other. They were clearly arguing over Lucius, and it seemed that there were some past tensions between Aphrodite and Lilith. The two of them didn’t like each other at all.

"I won’t let you steal him like you did with the others! No way!"

"Haha! As if you can stop me from doing what I want. It’s not my fault that you’re so bad in bed!"

Aphrodite frowned. "Shut up! I’m great in bed! Better than you!"

Lilith smiled. "Is that so? Should I ask Lucius what he thinks about my blow job? I’m sure he would tell you that I’m much better."

Aphrodite shut her mouth as she blushed slightly.

She knew very well what Lilith was saying, and she knew that she was not wrong in general. Still, she was annoyed.

’Why wasn’t I the Goddess of Sex? Why is it that bitch?!’

As the Goddess of Love, all of her skills revolved around charming others, while Lilith’s revolved around pleasure. It was a clear difference that was important because while Aphrodite was able to charm most men, Lilith would come swooping in and make them forget about her by pleasuring them like no one had ever done before.

-Knock!

-Knock!

Two knocks on the door, and all of them suddenly stopped talking as their heads sharply turned to the right, their eyes widening.

"Who the hell are you?" Lilith asked immediately. "And how did you get here?"

"It’s that son of a bitch again! Did you not remember what I did to you the first time?" Aphrodite said with a frown. "You want to get on your all fours again?"

"How did you even manage to get past Master? He would have stopped you, and you wouldn’t have been able to do anything..."

Lucius kept his mouth shut as the three of them continued talking about him.

"Your loser of a master? I defeated him with my eyes closed."

"You hit Master?!" Alicia shouted right away.

The anger bubbling inside her came out all at once.

"How dare you! You deserve death!"

But then, just as Alicia was about to raise her hand, Lucius grinned and removed the mask from his face, making everyone lose their minds.

"M-Master?!" Alicia was in shock; after all, she had only been inches away from hitting Lucius right in the face.

"W-Wait... who are you? Are you really Master?"

Alicia got closer to him and began smelling him, immediately recognizing his scent as she snuggled closer, giving him a hug.

"I-I’m sorry, Master... I didn’t mean to."

Lucius smiled as he patted the top of her head like she was a little kid.

"Don’t worry, I wanted to test all of you on how you would react if Axel had come here."

Lilith, who was watching from far away, was the one who was the most shocked by all this. She had no idea how Lucius had been able to change his voice and his face perfectly. She had never heard of this throughout her whole life. This was completely new for her.

"H-How did you do this? What kind of mask is that?"

Lilith pointed at the mask Lucius was holding with a frown on her face.

She started approaching him as she tried to touch the mask.

"Where did you find it?"

Lucius shrugged. "It was a gift."

"By whom?"

"It was anonymous..."

Lilith was mind-blown as she couldn’t imagine anyone getting rid of such a good item.

"C-Can I try it on?"

Lucius handed it to her with a smile as Lilith put it on and changed her appearance instantly.

"H-How does it work?"

"Call out the name of the person you want to change into."

"Aphrodite!" Lilith immediately said.

Then, the mask changed her appearance to that of Aphrodite, shocking everyone.

"I-It really works! This is crazy! You look just like me!"

Everyone started losing their minds as suddenly, Lucius’s phone started ringing, getting everyone’s attention instantly.

-Dring!

-Dring!

-Dring!

Lucius wondered who called him, as it was an anonymous caller.

"Hello?"

"It’s Axel Smith. I’m calling you to organize the date between you and my daughter. She would be ready for tonight if you want. The restaurant would be Ciel! I’m sure you know it. It’s the one at the top of the highest building in the city."

"Uh... tonight?"

"Does that not work?" Axel asked with a frown.

"Huh... no, it should be fine if it’s for your daughter."

Axel gritted his teeth on the other side of the phone. He hated that another man was trying to get closer to his daughter.

In Axel’s mind, Lucius’s actions were deserving of death itself!

"Alright, then she will see you tonight. Make sure to wear appropriate clothes for the date."

Lucius smiled as he heard those words. "Don’t worry, I’ll make sure that she can’t forget about me."

’That son of a bitch!’ Axel thought.

"Perfect! She will see you tonight at 6 p.m. then."

Lucius exchanged some goodbyes before ending the call, revealing a big grin.

"Seems like we have to go and do some shopping..." Lucius said with a smirk.

However, going out meant that he had to make a decision.

Who would be the person he would leave behind to ensure that everything within the General Store would go well?

’I can’t choose Alicia; she might actually lose her mind if that’s what I do. It should be Aphrodite’s time to stay here. It’s only fair...’

Lucius made his choice.

"Aphrodite, you will be the one staying behind today. This shouldn’t take too long. I only need to buy a proper suit for tonight."

"Why? What do you have planned for tonight?" she asked with a frown.

"A date."

"WHAT?!" the three of them said in unison, practically losing their minds. "A DATE?! WITH WHO?"

Lucius smirked at how the three of them were jealous. "Let’s go. We have some shopping to do."

He decided to ignore their questions, making them doubt even further.
