Chapter 1400 Mix It, Then Shake It, Then Mix It Once More Part 2

Well, I can easily imagine that they also thought that beating the original was also impossible…… I suspect that it must possess some kind of a super armor in the first place, and spitting out poison is just a shitty cherry on top. Not to mention that a direct hit from it can also hinder the movement of someone as sturdy as Rei-san. If we want to have a shot at taking her down, we will need a perfect equipment alongside a perfect environment and set of conditions.

「Now, then. Let’s hear that answer of yours, shall we?」

「…… Alright, I am going to help you out. So I expect you to help me out as well!」

Perfect negotiation, if I do say so myself…… My genius sense of negotiation has been proved once again…… I feel like that sentence just now was half-threatening, but if was anything but that, I would feel really scared and unsure.

「Let me ask you this right here just to be on the safe side: you wish to avoid getting involved? Or maybe you would like to cooperate with us actively?」

「…… Hah.」

Oh my, this just won’t do. I feel like I was mocked just now. You wanna go, punk? It’s a big mistake to think that violence only involves hurting someone physically. There are other ways for that as well, you know?

「Survival, go get them!」

「Yo there, brother…… If you’re going to harm our brother Sanraku, it’s as if you were going to harm us as well. Don’t you know? We are all brothers in here!」

「…… Huh? Umm, wait a minute, what does that even mean……」

Apparently, by hoping to establish any sort of relationship with Shuu—san, and treat him as a “Brother”, our perverts right here hope to get closer to the new albino little girl that just appeared on the horizon for them. I feel like what they said just now might be a little bit TOO incoherent, and their intentions are also pretty dubious, but let’s just see where it goes from here.

Come on now, Little Missy. Don’t you know? The scariest thing in here is neither me nor Wimp, nor the Little Girl Sensei. You can flinch all you want at the unpleasantness of the Dress-Up Corps that looked like a genuine zombie mob right about now…… But are snakes afraid of zombies? I don’t know and I don’t care!

「If he is Brothers with Surviv-san and Sanraku, then this means that he’s also our Bro by extension……」

「Let’s just try to get along in here nicely……」

「In other words, we are also the servants of this Young Lady right here……」

「Are you going to whip us? You are, aren’t you? Then let me take my clothes off, first!」

「I have already taken them off ages ago!」

To be going so full throttle this early in the morning…… There is literally no saving you guys……

「H-Hey! Don’t come any closer! W—What’s wrong with those guys! H-Hey! Let me go!!!」

「Thank you very much! Thank you very much!」

「D-Don’t tell me……!? Y-You lot, you are the same as Shuu……!?」

「「「Yes, that’s right!!!」」」

And just like that I witnessed both Shuu-san and his Lady getting swallowed up by a crowd of zombie-like mob that was starving for some treats…… Huh? Wait a second, what did you just say?

「…… Or not, let’s just leave it as that, since I didn’t ask in the first place.」

As long as the perverts does not cause harm to anyone, there is no reason to persecute them for it. Also, I’m nowhere near a position that I can criticize or kink-shame other people. So yeah, let’s just leave it as that and call it a day, shall we? I was preparing to log out while silently praying for Shuu-san, whose propensity has been exposed by the NPC just now.

「Hey, Wimp?」

「What is it now?」

I then lowered my voice, making sure that other Goldunines would be unable to hear what I was going to say.」

「I shall leave Sigma in here with you, but just to be on the safe side, do be mindful of your surroundings from now on, okay?」

「Uh……」

「Do you understand? Don’t go out without Sammy-chan-san by your side, don’t go out on your own, and no talking to strangers. Is that clear?」

「Who do you think I am!? Some kind of a small child!?」

「Right back at you, then: just who the hell do you think you are, huh? At the very least, don’t do anything stupid. If anyone asks you anything about you, just grin silently and do not say a word.」

Why I am the one who has to gives instructions like that to her, anyway? I mean, Wimp’s level should be pretty high by now, shouldn’t it? So why is it that I am only getting a feeling that the only one who is growing stronger in here is Sammy-chan-san?

「As a matter of fact, I also need to go to school really soon.」

For Ogasei, this ten minutes of one odd happening after another was like a straight-up dream come true.

He managed to encounter his most favorite celebrity. He managed to progress the Unique Scenario EX that he was keeping a secret even from his colleagues at school. And above all else, it did not end in a total bloodbath, but rather all parties involved agreed to cooperate with one another…… And he was also able to become friends with the holder of the Maximum Speed to boot!

「What should I do here…… I wonder if I can brag about this thing to anyone out there!?」

There are guys who do nothing but boast not about their own achievements, but the fact that their older siblings happen to be top frontline Players. There are also girls who laugh at the fact that Ogasei plays with a manly and huge avatar, doing that behind his back and thinking that he wouldn’t even notice. There were times where Ogasei wanted to show them all so that they would all be awestruck. But he also thought that it’s good to keep those important things a secret from people like that…… That’s the kind of Player that Nine was stuck with.

「Umm……」

「Huh?」

「Do you think it would be alright for me to have a moment of your time?」

It was at that moment that Ogasei heard a voice that belonged neither to Nine nor any other person that he happened to meet today. When he turned himself around, he saw no one there. But then he cast his gaze downwards slightly, and there was surely a short female Player right there, looking up at Ogasei in a slightly terrifying manner.

「…… and who might you be?」

「That girl right there, she’s Goldunine-chan…… Isn’t she? Isn’t she?」

「…… Huh!?」

「Ah! Wait, wait, wait! Please, just wait a moment! I’m not here to look for a fight! I swear! Please believe me!」

The NPC named Nine remained cautious in this situation. It was the same as when she learned that apparently someone exactly the same as her was spotted at this frontline base, and that the same “Goldunine” as her was involved in the food-making process in this exact coffee shop.

However, the green-haired small woman that she had to look down on managed to tell her identity at the first glance without any problems, also looking somewhat excited for some reason. So naturally, anyone would be pretty much wary of such a person, but even so, that woman was no showing any sort of hostility towards them. But even so, Nine wanted to stay on her guard as much as possible.

「Well, actually, you see? I also happen to be friends with “Goldunine”, you know?」

「You, too? You don’t say.」

「Yes, that’s right, but because of certain reason she cannot currently enter this store. So that is exactly why……」

─── So, that is exactly why she sent me to get along with all of you, before anything else.

With a huge smile on her lips, the small woman then introduced herself to Ogasei while pointing slightly above her head.

「My name, my name is Hiiragi…… Nice to meet you, I guess?」
