A Cliché Multiverse Story-Chapter 40 - CH. 40: So She Appears
(A/N:- The king returns from the hunt *cough* *cough*. Time to get serious about this. I will publish regularly from now on.)
I calmed the girls panicking from the gunfire, ignoring the thundering gunshots. Soon, the humvee crossed the river, taking less than three minutes. The barrier device was left with more than twelve minutes of durability.??
"Don't pay attention to them. Just keep driving to Saya's house. Where was it again?"
"Huh? It's a two-Choome at Higashi hill!" Saya yelled out.
"You heard her!"
"Here we go!" Shizuka accelerated the humvee and thus, we escaped the gunfire.
Tch, those guys were lucky that I wasn't Xianxia's protagonist or they'd be out by roots.
"What the hell were you thinking?" Saya whimpered. "We could have waited until the police weren't there to cross the bridge."
"You are wrong this time." Shiori denied Saya's idea. "Didn't you see the ability users on the police's side? They will obstruct any potential infection from coming here, which is meaningless as this part of the city is already infested with the undead."
The undead roaming the streets were scarce compared to the other side. I haven't seen any JSDF choppers passing by since day one. That was a normal occurrence in the manga.
"Do the cops not know about this?" Saya's eyes widened as horror washed over her face. "Or they gave… up on the other side."
I brushed her hair. "Yeah, they probably want to keep this side safe to build a shelter here." 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com
Nao stared at the rearview mirror, seemingly curious by our relationship. I winked, causing the busty woman to turn her gaze.
I once again opened the grimoire and immersed myself while patting Aiko's head who was now clinging to my chest. The loli soon relaxed and fell asleep.
[—Aiko Sakurada: Affection +5]
[—Nao Sakurada: Affection +3]
This is weird… Aiko, don't like me, please. Even my lolicon heart has limits.
[—You learned a new skill 'Demon summoning: Ars Goetia']
[—Demon summoning: Ars Goetia (F-Rank): You can summon any demon from the 72 Pillars of Solomon. This skill has a cooldown of 24 hours. Having a higher understanding of the Grimoire 'Lesser Key of Solomon' will reduce the cooldown.]
[—You learned a new skill 'Contract']
[—Contract (F-Rank): You can form a pact with any spiritual being. At the current rank you are limited to one contract.]
Finally! I achieved it after wrecking my dizzy brain for almost an hour.
(Congratulations my love.)
'Thanks! I'll try it in Yuriko's house. I need some thighs to recover.'
(Sleep on Shiori's thighs?)
'Not enough time.'
The undead in the street increased, the more we neared toward Saya's house. The tsundere clutched my hand in her trembling hand.
I sighed and pinched her cheeks. Her eyes turned teary.
"I say you should stop worrying." I lowered my voice. "or I would fuck your brains out in front of your mom."
Saya's lips parted but nothing came out. Shutting her lips, she looked outside.
I also turned to the front where five undead were flailing their hands. Yet none of them moved forward.
"Nee-san, stop here."
"Aa-kun… alright!" she pressed the brakes. The humvee drifted, crashing into a bunch of undead and sending them flying.
"Saya, Shiori out! Everyone wait here!"
Shiori and Saya exited. I carefully picked up Aiko and shifted her against the seat.
I also got out and squinted at the three layers of sharp wire set in the middle of the road. We avoided the trap wire, but the undead started to surround her. Nothing much against my yandere bodyguard or the elegant duo of Saeko and Shiori. Even with a normal wooden sword, she was unstoppable.
I summoned my frost daggers and sprang into the horde. If I'm not wrong, Yuriko would come to help us. The thing was the one day difference in the departure from the manga. Despite being lost in thoughts, my hands never stopped swinging the dagger, beheading the heads, dismembering the arms and legs.
After ten minutes, a rotten stench filled the air, coming from the pile of corpses. And I leveled up, reaching Lvl 5!
"Good job everyone. Get back in the car, I will remove the wire."
I chuckled at Saya's eyes changing. They got into the car while I vaulted over the wires and observed the area in front. I raised my brow as a truck took a turn to this road, grinding the undead in its way.
So she arrived.
