After coming out of his house and turning a corner to go to the martial arts field for training, Sasuke heard a familiar female voice coming from behind him. Sasuke didn't need to look back to know that the voice was Ino.
He stopped and waited for Ino to come up before he said:
"Is something wrong?"
"What, why are you so cold?"
Ino patted Sasuke's shoulder and said coquettishly.
"I just saw the clothes on your back were torn later and wanted to come over and remind you."
The clothes on the back are torn?
Sasuke reached out and touched back, and as expected he found two gaps near the shoulder blades. They should have been broken by the wings of the God's Familiar who had grown out of the Mangekyou Sharingan.
"And your forehead protector is also broken. What's wrong, Sasuke?"
Ino approached Sasuke and asked curiously.
"Maybe I got it accidentally during training."
Sasuke found an excuse to excuse himself and at the same time retreated slightly.
The distance was too close and made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"Eh? Didn't Sasuke just come out of the hospital not long ago? He's too diligent."
Ino didn't care about Sasuke's little movements and directly moved forward to hug Sasuke's arm.
"Let's go, Sasuke, I happen to be free today, so I'll accompany you to buy clothes."
Sasuke tried to pull out his arm, but Ino pressed her even harder.
Helpless Sasuke could only sigh.
"The Chuunin Examination is coming soon, haven't you signed up yet?"
"Teacher Asma signed up for us and we participated."
Ino looked at Sasuke next to him and lifted his bangs, and then said:
"That Shikamaru guy is still too troublesome, but I want to become a chuunin with Sasuke."
"...Then you don't want to train?"
"Oh, I've been training, but it's more important to buy clothes with Sasuke-kun, let's go."
Sasuke had no choice but to be dragged by Ino to the largest clothing store in Konoha.
He did have plans to change his costume.
I don't know if it's because of the elemental power or the increase in training, but he feels that his body has grown a little faster recently, and now that he has the power of Tevalin, he will grow wings when used, and some of his previous clothes no longer fit him.
——After all, it is quite troublesome to destroy a set of clothes after using Tevalin's power once.
Having long horns is also a bit troublesome, and the forehead protector also needs to be worn in a different way.
…
Ino was particularly excited when he brought her to the clothing store. After all, for an ignorant girl in adolescence, it is a very exciting thing to buy new clothes with the boy she likes.
You always have to try on clothes when buying them, right? Wouldn't it be possible to see Sasuke's upper body without clothes? Just thinking about it made her blush.
"Ino, what's wrong?"
Sasuke looked at Ino who was trembling slightly when he came to the clothing store, and asked curiously.
"Ah! It's okay...I...let's pick out clothes first!"
Take a deep breath, calm down! Calm down! Ino, this is something that even Sakura has not been able to do. Seize the opportunity and close the distance with Sasuke. You cannot lose to that broad forehead!
After calming down, Ino asked:
"What kind of clothes do you want to buy, Sasuke-kun?"
Sasuke did not answer, but glanced around the clothing store, and then fixed his eyes on a set of black and white loose kimono tops hanging in the corner of the clothing store.
He shook his arm slightly, signaling Ino to let go.
"I'm going to try on some clothes."
"Ah? Oh, okay."
Ino let go of Sasuke in a panic, and then watched Sasuke pick up the kimono and walk into the dressing room, which made Ino feel a little regretful.
But when Sasuke walked out again, Ino felt that her heartbeat had slowed down by half a beat.
He had taken off his torn blue shirt and put on his kimono top.
She originally thought that Sasuke's face was enough to explain the iceberg and unyielding nature of an abstinent boy. She thought that she already understood how handsome and charming Sasuke was, but she didn't expect that Sasuke like this would directly break Ino's heart.
.
How could he be... so charming!
The high-slit kimono top exposed half of Sasuke's chest, and even slightly spread to his lower abdomen. The white part was slightly transparent, and the faint muscle lines could be seen.
It turns out that Sasuke, who looks a bit thin... actually has such pleasing muscle lines.
The occlusion caused by the black part made Ino want to find out more, imagining what the muscles under the clothes would look like. Are they hard where they should be, and dull where they should be?
Sasuke seemed to have become much softer after putting on this suit of clothes.
When he was in the ninja school, Sasuke always had such a feeling of being thousands of miles away from others, but now this set of clothes makes people feel mysterious and tinged with a little bit of human warmth, that kind of transcendence.
The indifferent boundary between humans and icebergs seems to be gradually blurring.
Desire, the desire to go further.
Ino suddenly felt a sense of betrayal that was hard to ignore. A blush like a ray of light climbed onto Ino's cheeks, and she did not dare to look directly at Sasuke.
Sasuke is obviously Sakura's teammate, but now it's me... I saw Sasuke like this for the first time.
“Very comfortable clothes.”
Sasuke ignored Ino who suddenly lowered his head and said to his boss:
"Are there any clothes like this? I want to buy a few more sets and customize the family emblem."
"Oh, yes, yes."
The boss was an old man, so when he saw Sasuke, he naturally didn't have as many inner dramas as Ino. He just greeted the business enthusiastically and recommended pants and matching belts that Sasuke could wear with them.
Sasuke chose to wear this set of clothes directly, but the remaining clothes could be picked up at the clothing store in the evening.
After walking out of the clothing store, Sasuke looked at Ino, who still had his head lowered but peeked at him from time to time, feeling a little confused.
"What's wrong Ino?"
"Ah...it's okay...I...I remembered that I have to train combined ninjutsu with Choji and Shikamaru today...well, yes, combined ninjutsu...let's go now."
After she finished speaking, she ran back home without looking back and buried herself between the pillows.
Ino didn't expect that she, who had always been bold, would choose to run away because of Sasuke's gaze, but whenever she thought of Sasuke at that time, her heart would beat fast.
She thought she might really be in love.
…
Although Sasuke was confused, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Normally, Ino and Sakura are just like gummy candies. Once they stick to each other, it's difficult to get rid of them. This saves me a lot of trouble and allows me to train by myself in peace.
There was no mission today. After re-consolidating the foundation of the day at the martial arts arena, Sasuke returned to the clothing store to pick up custom-made clothes, and then returned home to continue concentrating chakra until late at night when he came to Teyvat again.
This time he was going to borrow the "Teyvat Tour Guide".
Soft music sounded, and Sasuke and Teyvat were linked again.
Paimon's voice rang in his ears.
"Eh? Sasuke, why did you suddenly change your clothes?"
