The next day, Chen Hai sat by the window, downing the hot wine in his hand.
As the wine went down, voices came from behind him.
Inside the room, Saya Takagi and Yuriko Takagi, dressed, stood near the door. The mother and daughter chatted about today's plans.
"Mother, what would you like to eat? I heard yesterday that a shop called 'Vichy Café' in Amor Plaza on Southwest Avenue is quite good."
"That sounds nice, let's go check it out. It's been a while since we had breakfast together; we used to eat separately…"
"Okay… What about Classmate Miyamoto?"
Saya Takagi turned to her right, where the girl, Rei Miyamoto, who had just fastened her intimate clothing, stood.
Rubbing her stomach, she responded with a somewhat subtle expression,
"I plan to rest a bit… You two were too much last night."
"Really? I think it was quite normal, and Mother taught me all of that."
"I didn't expect Miss Takagi to have such an 'unserious' side…"
Hearing her daughter's classmate's comment, Yuriko Takagi cupped her right hand to her cheek, revealing a gentle smile.
"In certain situations, I think there's no need to play the role of a serious and capable strong woman. After all… learning to enjoy is also an important part of life."
"Indeed… that's true…"
Rei Miyamoto took a deep breath.
After putting on her skirt, she held her torn over-the-knee socks and looked at Chen Hai.
"What about Chen Hai-kun?"
"I have something to do next, I'll take you back now."
"Th-thank you for the trouble…"
A smile appeared on Rei Miyamoto's face.
Seeing this, the Takagi Mother and Daughter had no intention of inviting Chen Hai to breakfast, but instead asked another question.
"What is Chen Hai-kun's work today?"
"I'm going to deal with some 'small troubles' regarding the Dungeon. You can act as usual, or do you want to rest like Rei?"
"Don't worry, Chen Hai-kun, I've gotten completely used to it since that night!"
Saya Takagi raised her right hand and made a victory sign, indicating that she was in excellent health.
Her mother, Yuriko Takagi, who was beside her, tidied her hair at her temples and then said,
"Chen Hai-kun is very gentle, so I don't have to worry."
"That's good."
The conversation ended, and the Takagi Mother and Daughter prepared to go back, change clothes, and then head to the cafe for breakfast.
Chen Hai, on the other hand, escorted Rei Miyamoto to her room door.
Looking at the slightly disheveled girl, Chen Hai instructed,
"Get some good rest today."
"En...!"
"Oh, and about your over-the-knee socks, I've had someone buy you new ones."
"It's fine, and...! I also have clothes I want to buy myself. You don't need to trouble Chen Hai-kun."
"New clothes? Lately, I've been quite interested in bunny girls, and some Adventurers' Lolita dresses are also nice."
"Eh? Are there bunny girls and Lolita in this world?"
"A tailor should be able to make them, right? Are you interested now?"
"No, it's not like that...!"
After Rei Miyamoto finished speaking, she quickly bid farewell to Chen Hai and ran into the room.
After being honest with each other last night, she was embarrassed today.
Was this a kind of slowness?
Thinking this, Chen Hai embarked on his return journey.
On the way, he passed through the central courtyard of the mansion, where he saw dewdrops on flowers and leaves in the early morning, and birds perched on small branches.
Chen Hai took a deep breath.
Fresh air entered his nostrils, making him feel refreshed.
It was time to start a new day.
He believed that Hestia, Saeko Busujima, and Shizuka Marikawa were also doing their work.
For this, after returning to his room, Chen Hai simply changed his clothes and directly teleported to Dungeon, floor one hundred.
This floor was the resting place he had arranged for Storm Dragon Veldora from the 'that time i got reincarnated as a slime' plane.
There was no other way; if Veldora was placed on the 'Abyss Floor', it was highly likely that a conflict would erupt with Death Dragon Ignis.
"Veldora! Veldora! Where is he!"
"I'm not human."
After shouting a few times, a huge shadow leaped down from the twisted stone pillar on the one hundredth underground floor.
Bang!
The giant dragon landed, causing a tremor.
"You clearly knew I was on the stone pillar."
"I did know. I just wanted to see if you would listen."
"What do you mean by 'listen'? I follow your rules very strictly, and I wouldn't cause trouble here."
Veldora covered his head with his dragon wing.
"I'm so disappointed, I'm so desperate! We were good friends adventuring together in another world, partners upon waking up, and what now? Is this how you treat my efforts?!"
"Stop faking it. I'm here to give you some fun this time."
"Oh?"
Hearing Chen Hai say this, Veldora's intermittent fake crying immediately turned into an excited question.
"What do you want me to do?"
"Go conquer another world. Depart now."
"Interesting. Not my world, but another world? You are so powerful, why don't you go yourself?"
"Because I can complete the task without you, and... I don't want to waste time on that world. But you are different; for you, it will definitely be all fun."
After Chen Hai finished speaking, he walked a few steps forward.
He looked up at the giant dragon in front of him.
"So? Do you agree or refuse?"
"Of course I agree! Who would refuse the fun of conquering another world?!"
"A very good answer."
Chen Hai said, then took Veldora and began a second teleportation.
----
----
Dungeon, floor seventeen, the 'apocalypse' plane.
Looking at the dimensional gate in front of him, Veldora asked curiously,
"Why didn't you let that guy named Ignis come with you? She's more powerful than me, and more loyal and obedient, isn't she?"
"Oh? So you admit that others are powerful? As for your question... I need Ignis to guard the 'Abyss Floor' to prevent accidents. If necessary, I will naturally have her act."
After saying this, Chen Hai stepped forward.
Seeing this, Veldora immediately followed.
After one person and one dragon crossed over, they arrived at the back mountain area of 'Fujimi High School' in the 'apocalypse' plane.
Facing a never-before-seen landscape, Veldora widened his eyes, and with his strong curiosity, he shifted his gaze to the distance.
"Is this the true otherworld? In the plane I live in, there are Transmigrators and Summoners. They mentioned their former homeland. Perhaps this is the place they were referring to?"
"I don't think so. After all, the universe is vast. The Transmigrators and Summoners you mentioned might come from another parallel world with a different worldview."
"Makes sense..."
Veldora nodded.
At this moment, Chen Hai asked,
"Don't you have abilities like 'Thought Acceleration' and 'Analysis Appraisal'? Aren't you going to use them on this world?"
"I don't want my 'fun' to immediately turn into knowledge in my brain."
"You really know how to enjoy 'transmigration'."
"Hehe~"
Veldora grinned, but his giant dragon appearance made him look very terrifying.
After they finished talking, Chen Hai asked the Storm Dragon to wait here for a while.
"I'll go down and check the situation first. If you suddenly appear in that form, it's likely to cause a commotion."
"I could turn into a human, but I don't want to, because a human form has no sense of intimidation at all."
"Say what you want, just wait here."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Veldora wagged his tail, urging Chen Hai to go and come back quickly.
Leaving the back mountain, Chen Hai headed towards 'Fujimi High School'.
A day ago, he had sent the Izdihar here to build a base, eliminate Corpses, and increase the occupation rate of the 'apocalypse' plane. What was the situation now?
With this question in mind, Chen Hai arrived at the scene.
And the scene before him greatly surprised Chen Hai.
Around the school building, where Corpses should have been rampant, it was now completely clean.
Near the main gate, there were barricades piled up to block the invasion of 'Living Dead'.
Part of it was rebar, part of it was tables and chairs, and now they were all glued together with stones, forming a wall.
Chen Hai continued to approach, and soon heard a somewhat familiar voice.
"Boss, you're finally here!"
Turning his head, he saw a tall Izdihar—Lizardman Reed—walking towards him.
Seeing his appearance, Chen Hai couldn't help but ask,
"Are you that efficient?"
"Please follow me, Boss Chen Hai."
Chen Hai, suddenly called 'Boss', followed Reed's steps.
They passed through the main gate plaza and entered the inside of the school building.
Soon, Chen Hai saw multiple figures.
So the auras he had sensed were real... Thinking this, Chen Hai looked around.
In the corridor before him, there were many human survivors!
These people were either sitting or standing, with various expressions, but none of them showed the panicked expression one might expect from seeing a monster like Lizardman Reed. (badj)
"What's going on?"
Chen Hai asked,
"Why are there so many human survivors here?"
Before Reed could answer, a greeting sounded from the right.
"Reed! You're back!"
"Reed! Thank you for the medicine you gave us earlier!"
"New survivors? Reed, don't overwork yourself!"
The nearby humans all seemed very friendly and started chatting with Reed.
After responding to each of them, Reed then pulled Chen Hai to go upstairs.
"As you can see, Boss, I, this 'monster of the Dungeon' and 'heretic among monsters', am quite popular here. The reason for this... allow me to explain slowly."
Reed smiled slightly and added,
"We followed your orders, Boss, and operated in this world with this building as our center, clearing out those mutated human individuals. As a result, during a patrol, we accidentally rescued a group of survivors who were being chased by 'Living Dead'. Initially, they were very afraid of us, but after seeing that we only attacked 'Living Dead', they lost their initial guard."
Reed stopped at a corner of the corridor and looked outside through the window.
There was a courtyard where several children were playing.
"Finally... those human survivors asked to join our team, hoping to get protection; just like that, I don't know if the human survivors contacted companions and friends from other areas, but as time went on, more and more humans found their way here, and we now have over fifty survivors."
...Honestly, Chen Hai was really surprised.
In the 'is it wrong to try to pick up girls in a dungeon?' world, Izdihar, due to their special appearance and identity, would be attacked by monsters and also face discrimination and exclusion from Adventurers.
However, here, they proved their worth through their actions and earned the trust of the human survivors.
Compared to being chased by their own Living Dead (Zombies/Corpse), those humans were clearly more willing to side with the aliens who eliminated the Living Dead (Zombies/Corpse).
Most importantly—
As a moderate, Reed, who could communicate with humans, must have left a good impression on them.
"Were there no problems during that time?"
"Problems… there were some; there were a few survivors who mistook us for 'aliens who created Corpse monsters,' believing us to be the true culprits of this human catastrophe, but those guys were quickly driven away."
In this regard, the 'Heretics team' that Reed belonged to was very calm and rational.
And not only that… "We provide food and shelter for those human survivors, and protect them from Corpse attacks, while the human survivors tell us the locations of resources and areas where Corpses gather.
Gradually, they became our friends; now, many survivors have started to actively help us with whatever they can, such as cooking and cleaning."
"What about the others? Vini and Rei?"
"Please follow me."
"Let's go."
"Over here."
Chen Hai followed Reed through the corridor and arrived in front of a classroom.
Pushing open the door, he saw that it was filled with all sorts of supplies—food, medicine, weapons, everything imaginable.
The Heretics who hadn't been seen earlier were all here.
Aside from Stone Dragon Gros, the female Heretics had all changed into new clothes.
They were all sailor uniforms… only Mermaid Mari was wearing a school swimsuit that had been altered by a tailor.
Rei, Vini, and Fei'er were all wearing Fujimi High School student uniforms.
"The clothes they are wearing now were modified by several human mothers with children."
"Hmm…"
Chen Hai looked at the Heretics who had transformed into JK (Japanese high school girls), finding it very interesting.
Mermaid Mari, in the inflatable pool, wearing her school swimsuit, saw Chen Hai and immediately greeted him, "Lord Chen Hai! You've arrived!"
Splash, splash.
Her mermaid tail kept slapping.
Rei, dressed as a JK, saw this and quickly reminded her, "I've told you several times, don't play with water; it would be terrible if you got the nearby medicine wet."
"They could just be moved somewhere else."
"Aren't they still being inventoried? I hope you don't mind, Lord Chen Hai."
Saying this, Rei looked at Chen Hai and bowed.
Fei'er, who was standing nearby, rushed in front of Chen Hai.
"We worked very hard, Lord Chen Hai! We completed so much work! And eliminated so many irrational monsters!"
"Truly… very hard…"
Vini also approached Chen Hai, her expression seeming a little uneasy.
Worried she didn't do well enough?
Chen Hai extended his right hand and patted Vini's head.
"You all did very well, exceeding my expectations; you overfulfilled the mission."
"Really?"
"Yes… I will reward you all then."
Facing the performance of the Heretics, Chen Hai believed their operation was very successful.
Not only did they simply develop their stronghold, but they also took in wave after wave of humans.
They, who were despised in is it wrong to try to pick up girls in a dungeon?, were willing to extend a helping hand to humans in the apocalypse plane, which could be said to be quite kind.
"The humans here… are much better than the guys in the Dungeon City."
Stone Dragon Gros said so.
Chen Hai looked over; a flower was pinned to his rocky head, he didn't know if some child had given it to him.
At this point, Reed took over the speaking rights again.
"Boss Chen Hai, we now plan to gradually expand our sphere of influence and find more safe places to serve as new strongholds.
At the same time, we have also begun to consider communicating and cooperating with other survivor groups through the human survivors here to jointly eliminate the Living Dead (Zombies/Corpse)."
After coming to this world, Reed had an even grander wish.
Clearly, the Heretics here were more vibrant than those in is it wrong to try to pick up girls in a dungeon?.
And being able to see Vini and the others in JK outfits… monster girls in JK outfits are quite cute.
This must be the benefit of transmigration.
Anything is possible.
Directly subverting the original plot and creating a new future.
Knock, knock, knock! A knock on the door suddenly sounded.
After Reed opened the door, a woman in a police uniform stood outside.
Chen Hai's gaze also fell there.
The woman had shoulder-length hair, star earrings, and a serious expression.
"Hello, Ms. Nakaoka."
Reed then spoke.
Chen Hai now recognized her.
Asami Nakaoka, the female police officer in the apocalypse.
According to the past plot, she would sacrifice herself to protect the public, but now she had become a 'subordinate' of the Heretics.
Undoubtedly, Chen Hai's arrangement this time changed the fate of many people in two worlds!!!
