Flame Dragon Armor

"Hey, hey, what's her deal?"

Sakayanagi couldn't help feeling a little confused when someone suddenly went against her.

Besides, Horikita Suzune was so beautiful that even Sakayanagi thought she couldn't match her looks.

Puzzled, she nudged Ye Yunchuan in the ribs with her elbow and quietly demanded an explanation.

"Call me 'husband'!"

Without changing his expression, Ye Yunchuan gave Sakayanagi Arisu's supple thigh a squeeze.

To be honest, Sakayanagi Arisu still hadn't figured out what nickname to use for Ye Yunchuan. Calling him "husband" before had only been a convenient expedient.

Now, being asked to call him that again was obviously embarrassing. But considering how stubbornly wicked Ye Yunchuan could be, she eventually leaned back against his chest and murmured coyly,

"You meanie~ Do you really want to embarrass me that much?"

There was no denying that Sakayanagi Arisu knew how to act cute.

But even if she was putting it on, Ye Yunchuan had to admit that she really knew how to flirt.

Even he was getting a little restless from her teasing, so he had no choice but to explain Horikita's situation in full.

"She stayed because I saved her and promised to help her find her brother."

"So you still haven't won her over?"

Once she understood, Sakayanagi Arisu couldn't help looking down on him a little.

"How should I put it? She really is a handful."

Ye Yunchuan also found Horikita Suzune rather troublesome.

With an ordinary girl, he probably would have forced the issue long ago.

But Horikita Suzune was different. She was stubborn as hell, and if Ye Yunchuan tried to force her, she would definitely kill herself.

So Ye Yunchuan could only keep her in line through her brother.

The problem was that he didn't even know where her brother was.

"How much of a handful is she? Want me to help you come up with a plan?"

Sakayanagi Arisu wore a mischievous smile. She was clearly quite interested in getting Horikita Suzune under control.

"You can give it a try."

Ye Yunchuan certainly wasn't going to refuse.

"Hey, are you two even listening to me? I'm not part of Ye Yunchuan's harem, so don't expect me to follow those rules."

Seeing the two of them eyeing her like prey, Horikita Suzune broke out in goose bumps.

"Don't worry. For now..."

Just as Ye Yunchuan was about to say something,

the maid responsible for relaying messages outside suddenly began pounding urgently on the door.

"This is bad, Lord Yunchuan! There are a lot of zombies and monsters outside. We can't hold them off much longer!"

"What?!"

Ye Yunchuan's expression changed dramatically.

Then he turned to the women behind him and said,

"I'll go take a look. Sakayanagi, come with me. Everyone else, stay here. Those with superpowers, protect those without them. Wait until I've assessed the situation before going outside."

"Understood. Be careful, Kawakawa."

Shiina Hiyori nodded.

With Sakayanagi gone, she was the leader of the group.

As for why Ye Yunchuan had asked Sakayanagi to come along,

the main reason was that the situation outside was extremely chaotic. To keep everyone from running around, Ye Yunchuan needed Sakayanagi Arisu to use Mind Control to keep them under control.

As it turned out, Sakayanagi Arisu's ability was indeed useful. She quickly stopped those reckless teammates from running off in every direction.

"Roar~"

But Ye Yunchuan hadn't expected his people to be even more useless than he'd thought.

In the time it took to say so, some zombies had already broken through the outer defenses and made it into the corridor.

"Help! Save us! Somebody, please save us!"

Two girls ran toward Ye Yunchuan. A zombie was chasing them from behind.

"Lord Yunchuan, save us!"

As soon as they saw Ye Yunchuan, the two girls hurried over and hid behind him.

"Bang~"

Ye Yunchuan said nothing. He simply glanced at them, then summoned Xiao Hei and blew the zombie's head apart.

"That was amazing! Thank you, Lord Yunchuan!"

The two girls hugged Ye Yunchuan from either side, looking up at him with eyes full of admiration.

"You two are..."

Ye Yunchuan furrowed his brow.

Looks-wise, both of them could be considered beauties, with passable scores of seven out of ten. But even though they were both sevens, they still fell short of Manabe Shiho.

Of course, their looks weren't what Ye Yunchuan cared about. He just felt as though he'd seen them somewhere before.

"Have you forgotten us, Lord Yunchuan? I'm Manabe's good friend."

"My name is Yamashita Saki."

"My name is Yabu Nanami."

The two pretended to casually hold onto Ye Yunchuan's arms, using the opportunity to press them between their breasts.

Ye Yunchuan could only say that they had a little something, but not much.

Besides, he wasn't very interested in them. He already had more than enough women who were at least sevens to keep him busy. When would he have time to deal with these two sidekicks?

"Go back to your room and hide for now. Don't come out until I've dealt with the zombies."

With that, Ye Yunchuan headed downstairs.

"Lord Yunchuan is so handsome and strong. I wish we could become his women, too."

"Right? With Lord Yunchuan protecting us, we'd be safe, and we wouldn't have to eat just one meal a day anymore."

As they watched Ye Yunchuan walk away, the two girls' eyes were filled with longing.

"Flirting with young girls right off the bat. Are you really planning to go after them, too?"

Sakayanagi Arisu couldn't help teasing him.

"You're beyond saving if you're jealous even of them."

Ye Yunchuan shrugged.

Although they did fit the system's requirements, the two were just NPCs to him.

He didn't need to flirt with them for now. He could pick them up along the way if he had time.

"I'm not jealous. I just can't stand the way a certain someone falls for every girl he sees."

Sakayanagi looked away.

She would never admit to being jealous.

She was cute to begin with, and now that she was acting tsundere, she was even more devastating.

If the situation weren't so urgent,

Ye Yunchuan would definitely have taken the time to savor her cuteness.

But for now, business came first.

"Roar~"

At first, Ye Yunchuan had thought the guards at the entrance were simply bad at their jobs.

But when he reached the dormitory entrance, he realized the situation was even more serious than he'd imagined.

"Lord Yunchuan, it's dangerous here. Those two monsters are hard to deal with. You'd better keep your distance!"

When he saw Ye Yunchuan, Katsuragi Kohei hurriedly updated him.

Looking over,

he saw two monsters covered in muscle had already barged into the dormitory.

They were nearly two meters tall, with huge faces like Thanos and bulging muscles across their faces, bodies, and limbs.

They looked intimidating at a glance.

Beside them lay numerous bodies cut in half, with severed limbs strewn everywhere. It was clear that a brutal massacre had taken place.

"What kind of monsters are those?"

Sakayanagi Arisu looked stunned.

Ye Yunchuan furrowed his brow.

He had expected monsters like the Sprinter to appear, but he hadn't thought they would show up so soon.

"Go inside and take cover. I'll handle this."

Ye Yunchuan sent Sakayanagi Arisu away. Those monsters looked powerful.

It would be dangerous for her to stay here.

"All right. Be careful."

Sakayanagi Arisu gave Ye Yunchuan a concerned look, then hurriedly left the battlefield.

"Katsuragi, you should get farther away, too. I can handle this one."

"Yes, sir. Be careful."

Katsuragi Kohei didn't argue and obediently followed Ye Yunchuan's order.

"Roar~"

Just as Katsuragi Kohei moved away,

the two Muscle Zombies charged at Ye Yunchuan.

"Go, Xiao Hei!"

Ye Yunchuan sent Xiao Hei leaping high into the air, then kicked one of the Muscle Zombies in the head.

"Bang~"

With Xiao Hei's destructive power, the kick should have blown the other's head apart.

But to Ye Yunchuan's surprise, the Zombie's head didn't explode.

After rolling on the ground a few times, it turned out that its head had only been grazed.

"What hard bones!"

Ye Yunchuan's expression turned serious.

"Number Two, attack!"

After testing its toughness, Ye Yunchuan decided to test its strength. He summoned a second Xiao Hei and sent it straight at the monster.

"Bang~"

They collided head-on. Neither side was damaged, but Xiao Hei was knocked back several steps.
