Chapter 7 - Preparations for the Second Opening Day

Lucius had spent the entire night crafting Love Potions and Erotic Perfumes. He was getting sleepy as he was about to finish his last one, completing his first day inside the Multiverse General Store.

In three hours, he had made 10 Erotic Perfumes and 10 Love Potions.

He thought that this inventory should last for a while. At least, he hoped it would also attract new customers.

But then, as he finally finished his last potion and turned around, Alicia was waiting for him by the door in her beautiful dress, smiling and blushing at the same time as she saw Lucius approach her.

'Is he going to offer to give me a massage again?!' Alicia thought, her mind racing in all kinds of directions.

"I hope you had some great sleep. Is your body still feeling stiff?"

Alicia blushed even harder as she remembered just how shameful she had acted, completely giving herself to him. However, even if she thought it was shameful, she also wanted it to happen again. She had really liked it from start to finish.

"Uh…" She blushed. "No, everything is fine now. I'm feeling great; your massage really helped me… in all possible senses."

Alicia wasn't lying. She had never had any sexual interactions in more than 500 years. Her whole body had been deprived of pleasure. So, what had happened a few hours ago had truly changed something within her.

She felt a lot calmer and happier, especially since the person she liked had done that to her.

"That's good to hear," Lucius said as he grabbed the finished product and was about to walk past Alicia, who frowned a little.

"What's this?" she asked.

"Ah, it's a new product that I'll be selling along with the Love Potions. It's called the Erotic Perfume."

Alicia's frown deepened. "Hm… strange name; never heard of it before. What does it do?"

"It increases how attractive one's scent is. That's the overall effect."

"Really? That's possible with perfume?"

Alicia had difficulty believing it. However, Lucius just smirked as he had crafted an extra one, so that he could try the product that he would be selling, especially since he could imagine that customers would ask if the product really worked. So, he wanted to show everyone that it really did.

"Hm, give me a second. I'll go place this and show you."

Lucius went and placed his last crafted perfume before going back and grabbing his extra bottle.

"Is that the perfume?" Alicia asked.

Lucius just nodded as he put some on himself.

"Are you feeling any different?" Lucius asked Alicia, who shook her head as she tried to breathe in the perfume.

"No, nothing is diff—" Her eyes widened as she immediately got closer to Lucius, breathing down his neck, her eyes rolling back. "Mhmm, since when did you smell so good? This is amazing."

Her hands moved on their own as she touched Lucius's abdomen, her hands gliding over him as she continued to smell him.

Her arms wrapped around his neck as she stood on her tiptoes, hugging Lucius tightly.

Lucius smirked at this sudden change in her behavior. 'It seems like this perfume is working extremely well.'

He was happy.

He had never doubted that the item worked, especially after the Love Potion incident. But even then, he had some doubts about it.

Those items seemed too good to be true for anyone who had lived on Earth for most of their lives.

Those two items could literally make most people fall in love with you at a glance, as long as they drank the Love Potion.

It was honestly mind-blowing.

"Can you let me go now?" Lucius politely asked as he tried to push Alicia away slightly.

However, she just hugged him even tighter.

"Hm… no~! Can't we just stay like this all day?"

Lucius found it cute. But even then, his goal was also to make it possible for him to leave this place at some point.

For now, he was stuck in the Multiverse General Store, and the system had said that he needed to make it run on its own before he could leave, which meant having employees who could pretty much do everything.

"Just give me five minutes?" Lucius said as he looked into Alicia's obsessed gaze.

She looked almost scary in how attached she was to him. It was as if she wanted to completely devour him.

"Mhm… what do I get in exchange?" Alicia asked with a pout as she continued to breathe in and out Lucius's addictive perfume.

"I can give you another massage later. Do you want one?"

Alicia smiled and immediately let him go. "Okay~! But don't you dare lie to me; otherwise, Alicia will be mad at you and will have to punish you!"

While she looked extremely cute saying this, Lucius knew very well that she meant it by the look on her face.

There was no doubt that she would "punish" him. He wasn't sure how, but he didn't really want to find out.

Lucius went upstairs after making some last-minute preparations and fell asleep on his bed right away.

***

The next morning came, marking the second day inside the Multiverse General Store.

Lucius woke up with Alicia next to him, smiling and giggling.

"You're finally up~!" Alicia said as she gave Lucius a tight hug, squeezing her ample breasts against his body. "I've missed you!"

Lucius enjoyed the hug. However, he also noticed that Alicia's behavior wasn't normal. She had completely lost all rationality when it came to Lucius.

Lucius patted her head, and Alicia closed her eyes, enjoying the moment.

"Let's go; we need to open the store while it's still morning."

Alicia nodded, letting him go. "Do you want me to do anything special since I'm your employee?"

Lucius looked at her adorable gaze and smirked, having the perfect role for her.

"If any troublemakers arrive in the store, I want you to deal with them in whatever way you feel necessary. Alright?"

She smiled. "Yes, I'll kill everyone who tries to hurt you~!"

Lucius's eyebrows raised slightly. 'Maybe this wasn't the best idea…'
