In an abandoned building.
When Shiryu and his group arrived there, they saw a bloody scene but it wasn't as bad as one would think.
Shiryu was disappointed.
For example, several boys including Junichi were found to be quite badly injured and unconscious.
But...
"Why did you come here!?"
Protagonist Takashi was trying to calm down his group members, but he didn't expect to see the person he hated the most again.
"Shiryu!"
The man was not alone, there was also Rei and the other women in his group. He glared at him unfriendly.
"Takashi, we meet again. Aren't you tired of shouting every time we meet?"
"It's because of you!"
"Me? What did I do wrong? By the way, I came because the three girls in your group, especially Nene asked me to help you guys."
Shiryu made a confused expression.
It made Takashi look like he was very ugly. After all, Shiryu and his group came with the intention of helping.
But his attitude made many people between the two groups dissatisfied. Even Saya looked at him with a condescending look.
"Hmph! Idiot."
The voice was not too small, Takashi could hear it and his face was grim. Right now, he was very sensitive and became easily offended.
Come to think of it, Saya was also originally a girl who could be considered close to him in the past.
Their relationship was not very good, but she always took the initiative to talk to him whenever he fought with Rei.
Seeing her become a member of Shiryu's group like his childhood friend. Takashi felt like he was losing something important to him again.
It was Shiryu's fault!
He stole those women from him!
"Saya, you and Rei are the same." Takashi said coldly.
He was clearly mocking both girls.
"Huh?" Saya frowned and adjusted the position of her glasses. There was disgust in her eyes that now reflected Takashi. "Loser, what do you mean?"
"What did you call me!?"
"I said you're a loser, you're jealous of Shiryu and angry at your incompetence."
"Saya, you—!"
Shiryu gave Saya a thumbs up in his heart.
But before the heroine and protagonist's quarrel could continue, Yui raised her voice.
"Enough! For now, we must treat the injured students immediately."
Hearing this, Saya snorted again and Takashi clucked his tongue.
Shiryu used this opportunity to step forward and approach the injured students.
He then glanced at one of the women in his group, "Shizuka-sensei, it's your turn to show off."
"Show off?" Shizuka tilted her head, but she immediately understood and made an enlightened expression. "I got it! I'm a nurse, I'll treat those who are injured!"
Did you forget you were a nurse before?
Many of them wondered.
But the next second, Shizuka stopped looking dazed and became serious. With the First aid box in her hand, she squatted down near the injured students and started the treatment.
It must be said that when Shizuka is in serious mode, she looks even more beautiful and mesmerizes the boys.
Takashi clenched his fists.
Why? Well, he was again jealous of Shiryu.
How could he not?
Why in his group, he had a beautiful nurse like Shizuka-sensei!?
Shiryu wasn't paying attention to the protagonist, he was busy right now. He even ignored the girls' gazes that were fixed on his figure.
Standing beside him, Rei suddenly hugged his arm as if she was declaring sovereignty.
The faces of many girls became grim.
[Is this what it feels like to be popular? Ah, no. Before this, I seemed to be quite popular among the girls at school.]
[But in the past, I was too focused on making money and didn't have time to date.]
The heroines:
This time you're talking about yourself, Shiryu?
That's fine, continue!
Many of them were curious about him, but what he wrote next left them speechless.
[Now it might be the other way around. For some reason, the heroines or beautiful women around me are multiplying.]
[And Rei, stop pressing your soft chest against me! Aren't you hugging me too much these days?]
[I'm happy, but it's hard for me not to get excited, okay? In this situation, what if my little brother wakes up!?]
"Pfft!"
Yukana, Ranko and Saya couldn't help but laugh.
The students who didn't have a copy of Shiryu's diary were confused as to why they were suddenly laughing.
Rei blushed, and reluctantly let go of her boyfriend's muscular arms.
Shiryu was relieved and continued writing.
He was chasing the target for the next reward!
Beautiful women would only affect his speed.
[But you didn't refuse, did you host?]
System, from now on... I'll call you System-chan.
So System-chan, shut up.
[I reject that name. Can't you think of a better name?]
A better name?
Maybe I'll do it later.
Shiryu suddenly realized that giving a nickname to his system might be rather troublesome.
The heroines around him wondered why he was suddenly just staring at his diary in silence?
[Ehem! Is there someone who can recommend a good name for a woman with a chatty personality?]
System-chan: "....."
The heroines: "Why all of a sudden?"
[Just kidding.]
[Let's change the topic, although I don't know if this is the right format in writing a diary... The boys' gazes that are now fixed on Shizuka's chest are making me annoyed.]
[I want to beat them up.]
Please don't do that!
You diary owner, can't you be more calm and patient?
"Done~!"
Shizuka seemed to completely ignore what Shiryu wrote in his diary, she was so focused on treating the injured students for almost half an hour.
"Shizuka-sensei, will Junichi-kun be alright?" Nene asked worriedly about her childhood friend.
Gosh, Shiryu just remembered.
That girl seemed to like Junichi.
Not only did he have to write a diary, he also had to think of a way to...
Shiryu closed his diary with a faint smile on his handsome face.
"This boy? His injuries are quite serious, actually it would be better if he was taken to the hospital. But don't worry, I've given him the first aid and he'll recover as long as he gets enough rest."
Shizuka spoke like a professional.
Seriously, who are you?
Where is Shizuka who is childish and like a big baby?
Shiryu wrote that in his diary without brackets.
Shizuka's lips twitched, she this time saw what Shiryu wrote and couldn't help glaring at him while puffing up her cheeks.
"That's a relief... Thank you sensei." Nene was relieved and thanked her.
Shizuka returned to her nurse mode and nodded.
"That's my duty as a nurse."
"Sensei, I thank you too."
Protagonist Takashi suddenly joined the conversation.
Shizuka only glanced at him with a stiff smile before walking back to Shiryu and his group.
Sensei...!
Why are you ignoring me?
Takashi was sad, Rei and Saya's attitude was understandable.
But Shizuka hates him too?
[Hahahaha! This is very entertaining.]
Shiryu laughed in his diary.
This was the first time the heroines had seen someone laugh in such a way.
But not only that, they didn't know.
Shiryu also laughed because right now, he had reached the word count for the reward!
System-chan, give me the power of Uchiha Madara in the Fourth Shinobi World War!
[Do you want to rule the world in a few episodes? That's too soon. Please don't expect too much, this reward is random, okay?]
System-chan's voice sounded helpless.
Then, she made an announcement.
[Ding! Congratulations host, the number of words you wrote in your diary has reached 5,011/5,000 words.]
[You've gotten a random reward. Would you like to check it now?]
"Wait a minute!"
The next second, under everyone's gaze, Shiryu suddenly grabbed Saeko and Rei's hands.
The two women were confused of course.
"Girls, I need your help. Please don't resist."
"I don't understand but... Alright, Shiryu-kun."
"Shiryu-kun, do what you want."
Saeko and Rei agreed.
They didn't mind, but were still surprised because the next second, Shiryu hugged them both.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The boy students looked at Shiryu with envy. Takashi needless to say, his face turned green.
He pointed at Shiryu with anger overflowing in his eyes.
"Shiryu, you bastard! Let go of Saeko-senpai and Rei now! Or—"
"Or what? Takashi, stop irritating me. They're my women, and they don't even mind. You'd better not interfere. Otherwise, I'll slap your face again and make you look like a pig."
Shiryu glanced at the protagonist coldly.
Takashi gulped, he was intimidated by Shiryu and felt humiliated.
Even so, he did not reply to his words.
He didn't dare.
His image as the group leader went down, the mocking gazes of the surrounding students made his face red.
Ahh! Ahh! Shiryu...!
Were you my nemesis in my previous life? I hate you so much!
"System-chan, do it now. My luck is mixed with the two hottest heroines in Highschool of The Dead."
"I can't believe I can't get something good."
Shiryu spoke through mental communication with his system.
System-chan was stunned for a moment.
[I don't know from you heard of this trick, but it's fake!]
"Just do it and you'll see how lucky I am now."
Shiryu was so confident.
In his previous life and even before the apocalypse happened in this world, he often read traditional villain-themed novels.
Every time he read such novels, he was excited and as a result, he believed in something called luck that the protagonists and heroines had.
[Ugh... It's up to you, host.]
System-chan groaned.
[You have gained a super ability: Blood Pointer.]
[Description: This is the protagonist Maken-Ki's (Takeru Ooyama) innate ability that allows him to absorb energy/elements from his surroundings, including the energy and emotions of his opponents. The user can also use this ability to immobilize opponents in battle, increase his physical strength and speed up regeneration/healing.]
"Did you see that, System-chan? This is the power of luck!"
Shiryu was so happy, he unconsciously hugged Saeko and Rei's plump bodies tighter.
The two girls' faces turned red.
Right now, Takashi was like a victim of NTR. He could only watch the two women who were destined for him being hugged by another man.
That man was Shiryu!
Although he didn't know why the boy was doing it while holding a book.
He ground his teeth hard, and clenched his fists until his nails dug into his own flesh.
"Shiryu-kun, I want to be hugged too~"
That flirtatious voice came from one of the sexiest girls in Tokyo Metropolitan Academy, Miku Yuuki.
However, Shiryu just glanced at her indifferently and said, "I'll consider it if you contribute a lot to our group and show your loyalty to me."
"I-I'll try."
Yuuki's smile froze, and she complained in her heart.
Shiryu-kun, you're being stingy! I also want to taste your muscles and the big sausage in your crotch!
Leave aside the contribution to your group.
But the matter of loyalty? You still don't trust me!?
Wait, what loyalty are you talking about?
Yuuki was suddenly enlightened. Shiryu probably still thought she was a bitch who liked to play with men.
That wasn't wrong but now...
Comparing Shirou with the other men she had seen, she did not find any of them better than him.
If it was him, she wouldn't mind giving her loyalty to him and being a good girl!
Saya glanced at Yuuki with a mocking expression, she was happy to see her rejected by Shiryu.
Still, what about herself?
'Huh? Wh-What was I thinking!? I don't like that perverted guy!'
The pink-haired girl was still tsundere.
Shiryu didn't think much of it.
He glanced at Takashi and his group before saying, "Since you all have basically been fine, we'll be leaving now."
Takashi sighed, although he was reluctant to let Rei and those beauties go with Shiryu, it was probably better than continuing to see Shiryu with them in front of him.
But...
Some of the students in his group panicked.
"Shiryu-kun! Please take me with you!
"Shiryu-san, I want to come with you too!"
"Me too!"
"Shiryu, I'll do anything. So, please let me join your group."
"You guys...!" Takashi again feeling betrayed, he looked at the students begging to join Shiryu's group with a cold gaze.
I risked my life fighting the zombies to feed and water you.
But this is how you repay me?
Ungrateful!
I'm raising a pack of wolves who are ready to betray their leader at any time!
Hearing what the people in front of him said, Shiryu still did not change his expression.
"I refuse, I have no interest in any of you except these three girls. Only they will join my group from now on."
Shiryu pointed at Yui, Ranko and Nene.
The students who had previously begged to join his group felt sad, especially the boys.
They wanted to complain that Shiryu seemed to only accommodate beautiful women in his group.
But none of them dared to say those words.
"Um... Shiryu-kun, I..." Nene seemed to have a problem.
She was reluctant to leave Junichi.
If possible, she also wanted Junichi to join Shiryu's group.
But Shiryu interrupted her, "Nene, remember our previous agreement? My request is that you join my group. As for Junichi? I believe he is more needed by Takashi's group than mine."
"....." Nene fell silent.
Shiryu was dominating.
Girls like her didn't dare go against him after he said that.
"I disagree! Shiryu, don't steal my group members!"
Another problem came from the protagonist Takashi.
He couldn't keep quiet when he found out the three prettiest girls in his group would be taken by Shiryu.
Shiryu decided to try something, he released Saeko and Rei from his arms and walked towards protagonist Takashi while activating his super ability,
I don't know how the protagonist in the original work used it. But he can use it only near being close enough to his opponent or target.
So when Shiryu stood right in front of Takashi, Takashi felt his body suddenly go limp.
"Wh-What do you want to do?!"
"What do I want to do? That depends on you, Takashi. Do you want to fight? If you can land one punch on me, I won't take those three girls from your group."
Shiryu smirked. With an upright posture like Captain America, his actions were more like a villain.
System-chan felt that instead of Captain America, her host was the Red Skull.
"One punch? Shiryu, you underestimate me too much! You think I– ah..."
Takashi didn't finish his words and suddenly fell on his butt. His face was pale, the anger and any more negative emotions that were overflowing in his heart had even disappeared.
He looked at Shiryu in a daze.
Even so, new emotions called shame and humiliation appeared again in his heart.
But at that moment, he didn't have the strength to stand up!
What was going on? He was confused.
From another point of view, they thought Takashi was too afraid of Shiryu. He was a coward as Saya had said.
"So this is your choice? You're very weak, Takashi. With such little power and courage, Yui and the other two are better off joining my group."
"I will take good care of them. Just like I did with Rei and the rest of my group."
Shiryu said all that with the protagonist's condescending gaze, he even deliberately emphasized his childhood friend's name.
"!!!"
Takashi couldn't take it anymore, a puddle appeared underneath him.
Everyone noticed it and was disgusted.
Takashi peed his pants!
"No! It just happened, I..."
Takashi's face turned red, he was so embarrassed that he almost fainted.
Social death!
He was experiencing social death!
Shiryu stepped back while pinching his nose, "Takashi, you surprised me and I admit it was a smart move to fight me. I can't bear to continue being here, me and my group will leave now."
"T-Take back your words! Shiryu! Shiryu...! I didn't do this on purpose...!"
Takashi shouted with despair on his face.
Shiryu turned around and marched out of the place with hurried steps.
Saeko, Rei and the rest of his group followed him.
Yui, Ranko and Nene were no exception. The latter was even now reluctant to stay in the same group as Takashi.
She felt disgusted and didn't want to get close to a group leader who couldn't help urinating carelessly.
She just hoped Junichi would be fine in the group after this. This was all she could do as his childhood friend for now.
...
Time passed.
"Are you sure this is that boy's house, Yuko?"
In front of Shiryu's house that resembled a defensive fortress, Sayo looked at the building in front of her with surprise.
"According to the address she gave me, it should be." Yuko replied as she got off her sports bike.
Sayo also rode her own sports bike to get here. On the way from the hospital, they encountered many zombies, but it was no big deal.
Skillfully, they killed all the zombies that blocked their way to Shiryu's house.
They did so without getting off their respective bikes.
Tsk, tsk, these women were not only sexy, but also very strong.
"Hmm... How much money did it cost to renovate the house into this?" I was suddenly curious about the matter somewhat.
"You can ask the owner later." Yuko walked up to the gate of the house in white tights that accentuated her slender legs and plump ass.
Or rather, she and Sayo had changed into their respective combat uniforms.
Shiryu would definitely be surprised and mesmerized when she saw their appearance.
This zombie apocalypse-stricken world didn't seem too bad.
