Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga

"I've already arranged the wedding time. Now let's go pick out our suits and wedding dresses," Shen Yun said with a smile, putting away her phone and looking at everyone.

"Ah~ Choosing a wedding dress? I'm really looking forward to it." Taiga Sae interlaced her fingers in front of her chest, her eyes full of longing and anticipation.

Every girl has dreamed of what it would be like to wear a wedding dress, and Sae Taiga is no exception.

"Does Tidom want to go and pick one? This is a rare opportunity." Taiga Sae said, then turned to look at Tidom, took his arm, and asked with a smile.

"Huh? Is this really that important?" Tidom tilted his head, somewhat puzzled.

Tidhomme, as an ancient person from the Heian period a thousand years ago, had a completely different concept of marriage than modern people.

The marriage system a thousand years ago was a form of "visiting wife marriage," where the wife would visit the woman's parents' home at night and leave in the morning.

Moreover, the man could maintain multiple such relationships. The most typical example is Genji in "The Tale of Genji". In Genji's life, in addition to his four wives, he had more than ten women with whom he had substantial relationships.

Marriage ceremonies during the Heian period were quite simple, usually consisting of a simple ceremony held at the bride's home, which was considered sufficient.

Of course, during the Heian period, there were also couples who formed new families; this was called "A-zukuri" settled marriage.

"Don't you know, Tidom? Every girl only has one chance in her life to wear a wedding dress, it's very precious." Taiga Sae explained earnestly when she saw Tidom's somewhat puzzled expression.

"Eh~ Is that so?" Tidom asked, showing interest.

"oh!"

The group left Guiyan and arrived at a wedding dress store near the city center.

Tidom and Sae Taiga were the first to run to the wedding dress boutique and look at the finished wedding dresses displayed in the window.

"Wow~ So beautiful!" Tidom exclaimed softly as he looked at the finished wedding dresses displayed in the shop window.

Although she had seen it on TV, the feeling of seeing it on TV and seeing it in person is completely different.

"Right~" Taiga Sae said with a smile, linking arms with Tidom.

"Let's go in and take a look," Tidom said with a smile.

"Okay." Sae Taiga nodded, then turned around, waved to Shen Yun, and said with a smile, "Doctor, over here, over here."

"They're here." Shen Yun smiled and responded to Oga Sae, who was waving at him. Then he turned to the other four and said, "Let's go, let's go take a look too."

"No, no, no, it's your duty, Doctor, to accompany White and Tidom in choosing wedding dresses. We'll be going now." Washio Gaku patted Shen Yun's shoulder with a smile, his tone somewhat gloating, "Doctor, enjoy yourself. We won't keep you company any longer."

"Ghana~"

After saying that, Washio Gaku waved his hand and left with Shishigaki, Samezu Kai, and Ushitatsu Sotaro, their arms around each other's shoulders.

"Hey! You guys..." Shen Yun watched the four people leave with their arms around each other's shoulders, then looked back at Sae Taiga and Tidom who were waiting for him, and felt a chill run down his spine.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk over, as he couldn't leave the two of them behind.

Accompanying a woman to try on clothes is really exhausting.

Shen Yun approached the two of them and smiled, "Let's go in."

Since there's no way to avoid it, we can only enjoy it silently. It's not bad to be able to feast our eyes on it.

As she spoke, Shen Yun stepped forward and opened the glass door of the wedding dress store for the two of them.

"Arigato~" Taiga Sae said with a smile, and then walked into the wedding dress store with Tidom.

Shen Yun followed behind Oga Sae and Tidom into the wedding dress shop.

"Welcome to Yumi Katsura Bridal Shop. May I ask which one of you is the bride?" As soon as the three entered, the female clerk of the bridal shop greeted them warmly and asked after glancing at Sae Taiga and Tidom.

Upon hearing this, Sae Taiga blushed, glanced at Shen Yun, and said shyly, "Yes, it's me."

"Is this your husband?" the shop assistant asked, looking at Shen Yun who had followed her in.

"Yes, yes..." Taiga Sae turned her head slightly, her cheeks burning.

She didn't need to look in the mirror to know that her face must be very red.

"Your husband came with you to choose a wedding dress; he really loves you," the sales assistant said with a sweet smile.

"Yes, yes..." Taiga Sae clutched the hem of her clothes, unable to help but lower her head to hide her shyness.

"Heh~" Shen Yun couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at Taiga Sae's somewhat embarrassed and adorable expression.

Hearing Shen Yun's soft chuckle, Oogawa Sae's adorable, slightly chubby face instantly turned bright red. She lowered her head, somewhat annoyed, and punched Shen Yun's arm, puffing out her cheeks in a huff:

"That's going too far!"

She had already agreed to use a fake marriage to seduce Orug, and the Doctor was still laughing at her. That was just too much!

Ugh, I'm angry!

"Well, who can blame me when White is so cute?" Shen Yun couldn't help but reach out and ruffle Taiga Sae's hair, smiling as he spoke.

"Cute...?"

"Well……"

Oh, so that's what the professor was thinking?

Taiga Sae's expression was a mixture of shyness and joy. The faint embarrassment in her heart vanished in the blink of an eye, replaced by pure delight.

"Alright, alright, let's go pick out a wedding dress first." Tidom pushed Sai Taiga into the wedding dress shop.

The shop assistant followed with a smile and asked, "Which wedding dress would you like, madam? We can make one to your exact measurements."

Taiga Sae and Tidhomme were overwhelmed by the dazzling array of wedding dresses in the bridal shop and had no idea how to choose.

"Could you introduce me?" Shen Yun asked as he walked over.

"Sure." The shop assistant nodded and then introduced the wedding dresses hanging on the racks and on the mannequins to Sae Taiga and Tidhomme one by one.

The shop assistant first introduced the brand's history, then the design concept, style, and materials of the wedding dresses. They even took out a magazine, flipping through photos of models wearing the wedding dresses while introducing them to Sae Taiga and Tidhomme.

Seeing that Taiga Sae and Tidom were listening so attentively, Shen Yun wisely refrained from disturbing them. Instead, she strolled around the store, looking at the wedding dresses on display.

It must be said that these wedding dresses are indeed very beautiful.

"Does Madam have anything you like?" the shop assistant asked with a smile as she closed the magazine.

"Arno, can I try on the wedding dress?" Sae Taiga picked up a wedding dress, looked up at the shop assistant, and asked.

"sure."

"Tidom, let's try on wedding dresses," Taiga Sae said, turning to Tidom with a smile.

"Okay," Tidom nodded, readily agreeing.

"Please follow me, both of you." The shop assistant led Sae Taiga and Tidom to the front of the dressing room.

Before entering the dressing room, the sales assistant glanced back at Shen Yun, who was looking at other wedding dresses, then looked at Taiga Sae and asked, "Madam, would you like your husband to try on a suit as well?"

Upon hearing this, Sae Taiga turned around and glanced at Shen Yun, then said with a smile, "Okay, thank you for your help."

"No trouble at all." The shop assistant smiled slightly, then called over another shop assistant. After giving a few instructions, he led Sae Taiga and Tidom into the dressing room.

"Hmm? Change into a dress? I understand." Shen Yun looked at the shop assistant who came in front of her and couldn't help but sigh.

This is what he fears most.

However, since it was Sae Taiga's request, he couldn't refuse and had no choice but to go with the shop assistant to choose a dress.

It was ten minutes later when the two of them came out of the dressing room with the help of the shop assistants after putting on their wedding dresses.

To better showcase the fitting effect, the stylist at the bridal shop applied light makeup to the couple, styled their hair in a simple way, and then put veils on them.

After doing all that, the shop assistant finally ushered the two out of the dressing room.

Shen Yun, on the other hand, had already changed into her formal attire and was waiting for the two of them outside.

When Sae Taiga and Tidhomme came out in their wedding dresses, they immediately spotted Shen Yun, who was dressed in a sharp white suit.

Their eyes lit up suddenly. Sae Ogawa came up to Shen Yun and said with a smile, "White suits you very well, Doctor."

Shen Yun turned around and stared at Taiga Sae and Tidom in their wedding dresses, momentarily stunned, his vision blurring slightly.

One is cute and sweet, the other is pure and elegant.

Fortunately, Shen Yun was used to seeing beautiful women, and after a slight moment of stunned silence, he came to his senses and sincerely exclaimed:

"very beautiful."

Sae Taiga chose a one-shoulder wedding dress with a long veil that reached her waist and a skirt that just covered her knees. The dress had a fluffy, floral-like design, and her long, straight legs were partially visible beneath it. The fitted waistline accentuated her beautiful curves, further highlighting Sae Taiga's petite and adorable figure.

Her long, flowing black hair was simply tied up and neatly draped over her shoulders, with a long veil hanging down her back, adding to her cuteness and playfulness. (Hairstyle reference from episode 11, it's truly adorable.)

Tidom wore a long-sleeved wedding dress, but the sleeves and chest of the dress were decorated with openwork lace patterns. The pure white color of the dress made her already fair and delicate skin appear even fairer.

Her originally shoulder-length hair was braided and coiled at the back of her head, and a white veil covered her face, adding a touch of hazy beauty to Tidom.

Her right hand gently covered her chest, and her shy and timid expression made her appear even more pure and charming.

"I'm a little embarrassed," Tidom said, covering his chest with his hand, his fair face flushed slightly.

This was the first time she had ever worn such a daring outfit; it even exposed her chest. She should have chosen something else.

"Doctor, between me and Tidom, who's prettier?" Taiga Sae asked with a grin.

"Well... they each have their own merits. White is cuter, while Tidom is more elegant." Shen Yun glanced at Taiga Sae with a hint of helplessness and replied.

Isn't this setting a trap for him? If we really talk about who's prettier, the other one will definitely get angry.

"Eh~ the professor is really cunning."

"Heh, you little brat, you're definitely up to no good." Shen Yun reached out and pinched Oogawa Sae's slightly chubby cheeks, sneering.

"Ugh... I'm so upset, I need to pinch the cloth again."

"Seriously, stop bullying White!" Tidom slapped away Shen Yun's hand that was pinching Taiga Sae's cheek, put his hands on his hips, and scolded.

"Sir, Madam, we also offer photo services here. Would you like to take some photos?" The shop assistant asked, seeing the three of them joking around.

"Okay." Sae Taiga nodded and led Tidom and Shen Yun to the photo spot.

She has also gotten used to how the shop assistants are addressed.

Sae Taiga and Tidom each linked arms with Shen Yun, flashing a peace sign with bright smiles in front of the camera.

"Snap!"

With a click of the shutter, the image was instantly frozen in time.

After taking a few photos with Tidhomme, Sae Taiga and Tidhomme each took a few more photos with Shen Yun.

Shen Yun was somewhat numb as the two women pulled him around. Taking one or two photos would be enjoyable, but after a while, it became torture.

"How much will these photos cost?" Sae Taiga asked.

"If you make a purchase at our store, the washing is free. Just leave your address, and we'll deliver your wedding dress to you. Of course, we also support custom-made dresses, but those will be much more expensive," the salesperson replied.

"Then let's make it to order, money is no problem," Shen Yun said casually.

"Doctor, we're just putting on a show, renting one set should be enough, right?" Sae Taiga whispered.

"It's alright, you'll be wearing a wedding dress eventually, won't you?" Shen Yun smiled and ruffled Taiga Sae's hair, then turned to the shop assistant and asked, "What's the process for custom-made clothes?"

"Please follow me, sir."

"Take your time choosing, I'll be right back," Shen Yun said, and followed the shop assistant to sign the contract.

"What style of wedding dress would you like to have custom-made, sir?"

"Style, that's it. One is a shrine maiden, the other a female warrior. That's all there is to it," Shen Yun said.

"Okay. From design to finished product, a wedding dress takes at least three to six months. I hope you can understand."

"certainly."

After paying the deposit and signing the contract, Shen Yun went back and watched as Sae Taiga and Tidhomme enthusiastically tried on all sorts of wedding dresses.

As time went on, Shen Yun's originally sincere praise gradually became perfunctory.

In the end, Sae Taiga rented the wedding dress she had initially chosen.

"It's finally over..." Shen Yun sighed inwardly.

Two hours, a full two hours! His butt was almost numb from sitting so long.

"Alright, Doctor, let's go pick out a dress for you!" Taiga Sae said excitedly.

"..." Upon hearing this, a hint of fear flashed in Shen Yun's eyes.

"I think my outfit is already pretty good," Shen Yun politely declined.

"Come on, come on, doesn't the doctor trust our judgment?"

"...Please, just let me go."

"Ugh, that's too much!" (End of Chapter)
