Chereads / The Devil's Fiance Is The Alpha's Mate / Chapter 4 - An Outfit With Laces?

Chapter 4 - An Outfit With Laces?

Damn, two targets?! Wait, pause Chen Ming. Deep breaths.

After a few deep breaths, he finally calmed down as he looked at Chick, intending to ask about his targets even though he hadn't yet accepted his fate when the elegant brown door carved in reddish leaves and flowers opened abruptly, rendering him shocked.

Chen Ming watched as the door opened and an unfamiliar man walked inside. The man wore an elegant western outfit, black and white, seeming more like those well-suited head servants or butlers from some rich families. The man's shoulders were broad as there was a cut right across his eyebrow.

Despite his old age, there wasn't any trace of wrinkles on his smooth pale skin. Only one glass that was fixed to one of his eyes and his grey hair made him look strikingly old as he bowed and said, "It's time for you to meet my lord."

"Oh….." Chen Ming was confused as to who and what this 'My Lord' actually was. He glanced at the place where the chick was only to realize that it had long vanished without giving him a single word of explanation.

He cursed Chick under his breath.

That damned system! He disappeared just like that!

Of course, his face remained cold and indifferent as he got off the bed and said, "Can I change?"

Despite looking all handsome and well-dressed, he still wanted to change. After all, he had just finished his office work and was returning home when he fell into the pit. He knew he smelled of sweat all over his body.

The only good thing about him was his smooth and silky hair that would remain well-combed despite spending hours at work without fixing it. His amber eyes looked as if they were trying their very best to enchant the one who would look into his eyes, but the big round glasses on the bridge of his nose hid the color of his eyes. What was even more frustrating was that his glasses were extremely old-fashioned, making others repel him.

So despite being handsome as heck, he became the oldest virgin in his office because he didn't even put the slightest effort to look handsome.

At this time, the butler could see through the handsomeness that was hidden behind that kind of weird outfit. A smile caressed his lips as he said, "Allow me to get you ready, Mr. Chen."

"No wait-" Before he could even finish the sentence he was speaking, the man had already raised his hand and grabbed the man's arms, pulling him toward another door at the side.

Dumbfounded, Chen Ming found himself being forced to sit on the side inside a well defined wardrobe full of medieval robes. The man searched and found an outfit, throwing it on the young man's lap as he said, "Dress."

After saying that, the butler walked out and closed the wardrobe behind, leaving Chen Ming all alone. He stared at the outfit placed on his lap with a hint of complicated emotions on his face.

He pulled it up and stared at the strange black and white outfit with laces. His brows furrowed deeper as he pulled up the sleeves, trying his best to make sense of what kind of outfit it actually was, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't understand how he should wear it.

Just when he was about to call the butler, the chick's voice sounded once again.

"Host! Please purchase the free beginner's pack from our store!" This time, Chick came with a tablet in his hand that he showed to his host. There was a shopping window open, and aside from that, you can't open anything else.

On the screen, except for the beginner's package, there was nothing else mentioned, and the other items on the screen were blurred. At the top, he could see points, which were currently zero.

Then he raised his head to glance at the chick as he asked, "Will I learn how to wear this stuff?"

Chick nodded and said, "Not just that, you'll learn more about this world and your situation! Please, go ahead~"

Chen Ming nodded as he finally clicked on the purchase button. Right after that, a series of memories filled his brain, making him a little bit dizzy a little bit. He held the wall behind him and continued to sit there for a little while before blinking and focusing on those memories at once.

This was a fantasy, medieval world…. No scratch that. It was a modern world with technology, but everyone wanted to wear medieval clothes. In fact, medieval robes were in trend here.

There were mobiles phones and modern technology, but they all freaking wore medieval robes?

But that wasn't all. This world was still a fantasy full of magical people. Humans were scarce, and other than them, there were demons, werewolves, and vampires populating the entire world. Of course, humans weren't always scarce, and these beings were hidden as always.

A few decades ago, a war broke out between the higher-ups of the four departments, and the losing side was of course the human government, suffering terribly to the point of being sent to the slavery. Humans were captured blindly, raped, killed, eaten alive, and whatnot.

Vampires had their feasts right under everyone's noses and the poor humans couldn't do a single thing about it.

At this time, Chen Ming, the human who crossed over from another world, was the only living beautiful human alive with his amber eyes and black hair. Other humans had long deformed because of the passage of time and the poor upbringing because none of them would be given enough requirements.

In this world, or rather say storyline, Chen Ming's parents Chen family was a rare rich family living on the outskirts of the city, in a village that hadn't been touched by many beings. Thus, they were saved from the attack.

But unfortunately for the young Chen Ming, the demon's eyes locked at him and couldn't move away despite whatever he was doing. Thus, the youth was kidnapped and brought to the demon lord's palace right under everyone's gazes as his fiance.

Wait, scratch that. Even Chen Ming could realize being a fiance was only a title. What he was…. He could determine by the words written next.

The demon lord wanted to assess the human's body. Meaning, the outfit that the butler sent him wasn't going to be anything good.

As for the second target, this information was still locked and would be revealed until he showed up.
