DOOMED TO BE A VILLAIN
Chapter 138 CHAPTER 138: PREPARATION FOR THE BATTLEFIELD BANQUET
Davies stepped out of the bathroom with water dripping from all over his body to the floor, his hair slick with water and plastered to his face due to him just having a bath just a few moments prior. He stepped away from the door that led to the bathroom and moved towards the room where his clothes were placed.
Yes, you heard that right. He had a whole room for just his clothes, not counting his shoes and other dressing accessories.
It was to be expected as he had that much money to waste and he quite liked dressing up, after all, as a rich and devilishly handsome villain, he had to look the part, didn't he?
Also, he had bought 3 vans full of clothing the last time he had gone shopping for clothes, so they obviously couldn't fit into a drawer or a wardrobe unless he had quite a bit of them, and they would end up taking enough space to fill the room, so it was the same thing.
He first put on underwear, the only part of his clothing that he wasn't very picky about. Seconds later, he was using his towel to dry his hair after putting on plain black underwear, as even though he wasn't picky about his underwear, he still wouldn't be caught dead wearing embarrassing underwear like mickey mouse underwear or something of the sort.
Since he was going to a formal celebration, then it was probably best if he wore a suit, right? To be honest, it didn't really matter what he wore as he would still be treated like a guest of honor even if he wore cute teddy overall pajamas to the event. People wouldn't even dare give him strange looks lest he takes offense, but Davies obviously wouldn't be doing that.
Also, he felt like wearing a suit and looking especially badass as tonight's birthday banquet was more of a battlefield than a celebration in his opinion. He moved towards the section for suits and was about to pick an elaborately designed black suit when his eyes fell on a slightly bulky black overcoat and immediately every thought about wearing a suit flew out of his head.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I choose you,"
The black coat was literally calling out to him, and he immediately picked it up to examine it. It was made of expensive fabric and every part of it was black from the main material to the thread used for tailoring, and even the buttons were black. All in all, it was a beautiful piece of clothing… at least to Davies.
As previously said it was slightly bulky and was probably made to be worn in cold environments, but that didn't matter to Davies as he couldn't mostly feel hot unless the heat was unnatural; perks of being an ice mana user.
"It's completely black huh? … might as well go all the way," he murmured with a slight smile as his eyes fell on another completely black piece of clothing. This time it was a black turtleneck and coincidentally it fitted the bill for the next piece of clothing Davies needed as he obviously couldn't just wear the black coat while fully displaying his admirable upper body, and what else fitted the bill for the innerwear of a black overcoat than a black turtleneck shirt.
He immediately picked the turtleneck shirt as well and moved toward the trouser section. This time, he didn't waste any time thinking too much and immediately grabbed the first black pair of trousers he spotted. It was a pair of cargo pants that had quite a lot of pockets, just like Davies liked.
Davies had always preferred baggy clothes and ones with lots of pockets as they gave him more room for movement and also lots of places to put hidden weapons. It was a habit that had grown on him due to certain occurrences in his past lives, though now he had the inventory and did not really to keep too many hidden weapons on his person, it was more of a habit and personal preference, and he had no desire to change it now.
Now that he had picked out his outfit, he spent a couple of minutes putting them on and soon, he was done. Now all that was left were shoes and other accessories.
Since he was going for the all-black look, he picked out a couple of black suede boots and put them on after putting on black socks first.
Next up, accessories… without much thought, he decided to use only silver-colored accessories as they melded with the look and aura he wanted to give off tonight. Wearing gold would have made him give off a regal aura and it may even look a bit tacky, and right now he wanted to give off the feeling of hidden danger so, it was better to go with silver.
Silver earrings, silver rings, and a silver watch… and done. He moved to a mirror to take a look at himself and only after reaching the front of the mirror and taking a look at himself did he remember that his hair was still messy and still wet, even though he had dried off the excess water with his towel.
A hair drying and styling session later, Davies sprayed a million powerstone dollar perfume all over his body, put the perfume back into its specially customized pack, and returned it to the drawer he took it from before heading out of the room.
Davies stepped out of his bedroom to come face to face with a Daniella that was fully dressed and disguised and waiting patiently for him to come out.
"Let's go," Davies spoke and walked past her not looking back to see if she was following as he was sure that she would be right behind him, watching his back whenever he needed her to be, after all, that was what he had trained, trusted and entrusted her to do.
They both went to the elevator and used it to go to the underground garage where they both alighted. Davies went to the keyholder that was hung on the wall and took out two keys. The first key he threw to Daniella was the key to one of the cars he had in the garage, an SUV Vercedes D-Wagon.
"You're driving that one and following behind me," he said to which Daniella nodded affirmatively, indicating that she understood that they wouldn't be going to the banquet in the same car.
Davies took the second key and walked a few meters until he was beside his beloved Sierra, the Lykan Supersport which he had personally repaired after that unfortunate encounter with Dalena Santos. After a lot of work, she was back as good as new and Davies rubbed the tip of his fingers across her paint lovingly for a few seconds before opening the doors and getting in.
It was time to go after a protagonist and steal more of his wom-… ahem, his opportunities, Davies thought as he ignited Sierra's engine and she started up with a low hum. He drove Sierra to a huge platform in the middle of the garage and Daniella's Vercedes was soon beside him on the platform in the middle of the garage.
The roof above them slid open and the platform that their cars were standing on began to rise slowly taking them up onto the surface, somewhere on the driveway. Soon, they were above the ground and they both stepped on the accelerators of their respective vehicles, zooming out of the driveway and leaving the house behind them while the platform returned underground.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDavies's car was in the lead as he followed the directions shown on the map that led to where the banquet would be held, which was somewhere in the family estate of the Lecroys.
As Davies drove at a not-so-high speed, his eyes went to the passenger seat of the car and he wondered if he should have not bothered being too cautious and should have invited Tisha to come along with him as a +1.
He had previously thought to bring Tisha along, but after giving it a little thought, he had decided against it as, for starters, if the two of them with dark fate values went to a place where the protagonist was guaranteed to show up, then the conflict that was supposed to occur inevitably between them would be quite the sight to see and may end up being more annoying than amusing.
Secondly, he was going there to the banquet of the father of the heroine he was planning to bed, and he was planning to steal another heroine while he was at it, so bringing a 'date' along would be counter-effective, but then it didn't really matter as polygamy was widely accepted after mankind had lost quite a bit of its population during the great cataclysm and they were still losing even more due to the various dangers that existed out in the world after the cataclysm, but even then, Davies didn't want to take any chances.
Heroines were always known to have sky-high pride and were kind of idiotic until you could get them in line with your "dragon" so until then, he had to avoid trying any stunts.
It was a shame though, he kind of missed the cute and over-bubbly glasses girl.
