"You must definitely protect Alina and her smile... How beautiful it is, but it ends up being a dream?" Zhong Zai smiled self-deprecatingly, but the smile seemed extremely bitter.

The other half of the empty bed was placed in front of me, indicating the fact that Alina was not there.

The wall clock shows that it is twelve noon, which is the most intense sunshine, especially for vampires like Alina who don’t have much strength and half-baked. Even if they are not shining directly by the sun, their bodies are still in the weakest state and become sleepy irresistible, and then they sleep like they die.

If Kokona was really in the house, it would be impossible not to sleep without a sleep.

But, but... it's not clear if this is just based on it. Maybe, maybe... there's another reason to let Gongkouna walk away for a while. That's right, that's it! Zhong Zai murmured as if trying to convince herself.

Although Zhong Zai knew that the opportunity was very low, he still wanted to believe it, and he should be said to be asking for other possibilities.

By the way, the game mark on the back of the right hand is a certificate of participating in the Yu-Gi-Yu-Yu-Gi-Yu-Yu-Trade competition held by the Ledoll Group. As long as there is that, it can prove that everything last night was not a dream. This is more powerful evidence than anything.

Zhong Zai couldn't wait to check the back of his right hand. After seeing clearly the back of his right hand, Zhong Zai fell into a state of distractedness.

No. Don’t talk about branding or tattoos. Zhong Zai’s right back is smooth, and even a little scar has never existed.

Because Zhong Zai has been staying at home and working very little, it is not surprising that he has such a hand. However, the lack of game imprint deeply hurts Zhong Zai's heart. When he saw the empty back of his hand, his heart felt as if he was being grabbed by an invisible big hand.

Sometimes hope is more terrifying than despair. Nothing is more cruel than giving you hope, but revoking it mercilessly when you feel at ease.

It was obvious that I finally found my life goal for the first time in this decadent and depraved world, and accidentally found the thing called happiness; I finally made a great enlightenment and decided to give up everything and continue on this dangerous and dangerous road. But in just a few hours everything was restored to its original form.

Zhong Zai closed his eyes in pain. When he opened them again, a look of "relieving" appeared in his eyes, as if he had accepted this reality. Because if he didn't do this, Zhong Zai might not be able to maintain normalcy anymore.

Zhong Zai forced himself to use reason to convince himself: it was just a short and empty dream, and even if it was a beautiful dream that he did not want to wake up, it was over. When he woke up, he was still alive, and life still had to continue, right?

Sure enough, I participated in a mysterious game competition and lived in the same room with a beautiful girl who suddenly appeared in the magic circle. This kind of god-expanding is just a drama in the two-dimensional world such as animation novels. How could it happen in reality?

I am really, I can’t even understand reality and delusions. Am I already decayed and inexplicable?

After seeing the reality clearly, Zhong Zai sighed and went to the bathroom to wash his face and wake up.

"Hmm? The bathroom door lock is broken again?" Zhong Zai grabbed the bathroom door handle but failed to open the door successfully.

Zhong Zai's house was left by his parents who worked in another place. He has lived here since he was a child. Fortunately, the decoration of the house has not been formally repaired for more than ten years and is generally well maintained. However, the bathroom door locks are faulty from time to time, and they are automatically locked for no reason.

After all, that door is older than Zhong Zai, so it is no surprise that there is a little problem. As for the solution, it is very simple. To deal with this simple old door lock, just find a coin or something to pry it on the lock, and there is no need to spend money to repair the door lock.

Well, Zhong Zai won't admit that it's troublesome to even find someone to repair it.

Without thinking about it, Zhong Zai picked up a pre-prepared coin from the counter next to him. With a sound of Kawak, he pried open the door.

The scene that caught my eye was a silver-haired girl sitting on the toilet. The beige pajama pants she was wearing had faded to the bottom, and the tender and delicate skin on her legs was completely exposed to the air, full of a seductive feeling of crime.

Due to the difference in height and posture, Zhong Zai looked at Alina from the top to the bottom, allowing him to easily see this peach spring scenery. From this angle, he could also see a pinch of the roots of his thighs...

"Hey, it seems that there is no?" Zhong Zai didn't notice that he had leaked all his unspeakable thoughts.

The physiological mechanism of vampires is exactly the opposite of that of ordinary humans. It is no less difficult to move at noon than that of ordinary humans who stay up all night. It is rare that Alina can sleep at this time, but it is still too difficult to stay awake.

Alina was also in the middle of the night... Well, it wasn't right. She woke up in the middle of noon and went to the bathroom. She was in a state of chaotic spirit, and her eyes were so sleepy that she could not even see Zhong Zai, who was opening the bathroom door in front of her.

Originally, if Zhong Zai didn't say anything, Alina would... Until Zhong Zai suddenly made an inappropriate speech, the original stagnation was broken, and the girl recovered from her half-sleeping state.

"Hmm? It's Master Zhongzai... Hey hey hey hey hey hey!" Alina, who subconsciously rubbed her sleepy eyes, stopped her movements, and the circuit called thinking was connected again. From the expression on her face, it seemed that she had a good understanding of the current situation.

"I'm sorry!!" Zhong Zai then understood what good things he had done, and rushed out of the bathroom before Alina. Instead of being driven out of the bathroom by someone half-dozen, it would be better to run out tactfully. This might reduce the other party's disgust.

Standing outside the bathroom door, Zhong Zai fell into endless troubles and self-blame: I'm going to die, die, die!! I actually encountered the most embarrassing thing for a girl. Now my favorability will definitely be cleared!

Who said that everything was just a dream last night! Hey... it seemed like I was thinking it was self-righteous... Why did this misunderstanding come about... By the way, the game imprint!

Zhong Zai, who was sleeping in a daze, remembered now: Before going to bed last night, he discovered an inconspicuous small function that was imprinted by the game, which is the hidden function.

After all, the game mark on the back of the player's hands is too conspicuous, which can cause inconvenience to students or some people in daily life. The most serious thing is that it exposes the identity of the player in reality. If other players find out, it is very likely that it will cause death.

So this hidden function makes the game brand on the back of the right hand become invisible like the chains on the neck of the universal angel in "Things from Heaven". It's really an unexpectedly humanized function.

There was no game mark on the back of his right hand because Zhong Zai forgot to adjust it before going to bed. Sure enough, Zhong Zai's thoughts were all over his life, and the red game mark immediately emerged. The truth was revealed. Zhong Zai, who forgot about this, used his imagination that was far beyond ordinary people, and naturally regarded everything that happened last night as a dream. So the scene that just now happened happened.

As a result, there was no scream that Zhong Zai imagined breaking through the sky in the bathroom. It was quiet, just like the hypocritical calm sea surface on the eve of a storm.

After a while, the bathroom door opened again. Alina walked out as usual, as if nothing had happened. She looked up and met Zhong Zai's sight. Zhong Zai, who knew that she was inappropriate, didn't know how to solve the embarrassment in front of her, and waited for Alina to speak first.

"I didn't expect that Master Zhong Zai actually had this kind of hobby..." Oh no, Alina felt a lot of pressure when she spoke. Perhaps Alina would determine that she was a pervert, and her favorability would drop to freezing point in one breath.

"If Master Zhong Zai wants it, there is no need to suddenly break in and go into the bathroom with Alina. He scared Alina just now." Even after saying such a bold statement, Alina's face was just a little rosy than usual, and there was a bit of redness on her cheeks.

Hey Hey? What kind of plot is this?? It seems that Zhong Zai really underestimates Gong Kou Na. The shame and anger of a normal girl who was encountered in the toilet was just a piece of cake in her opinion. Instead, she invited Zhong Zai.

"That... shouldn't you blame me?" Zhong Zai asked weakly, but Alina seemed to have not heard it and had fallen into an endless state of delusion.

"Does Mr. Zhong Zai feel that sudden intrusion is exciting enough? Although this is good, you should be careful that doing such things to other women in the future will become criminals." Alina showed an expression of understanding, and it seemed that she wanted to find a reason for Zhong Zai to excuse her out of kindness, but Zhong Zai didn't want this kindness.

"...I don't have such a remote and perverted ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－�

"Really, Lord Zhong Zai should learn to believe in people! Alina has always believed in Lord Zhong Zai, so Lord Zhong Zai must also believe in Alina who believes in you!" Alina, who knew the whole story, learned about Zhong Zai's misunderstanding.

"I'm so sorry..." Zhong Zai, who was ashamed of shame, held her head and knelt in front of Alina. Zhong Zai recalled that she was making Alina angry and questioned Alina repeatedly. On the contrary, in the face of Zhong Zai's repeated distrust, Alina always forgives him with ease.

It seems that I am still a scumbag... Is it a bit late to start trying to save me now?

However, if he did not express his true thoughts to Alina again, it would be Zhong Zai's turn to forgive him this time.

"Alina!" Zhong Zai called out Alina's name with this determination.

"Here!" Alina was suppressed by Zhong Zaisha's mind for a moment, and she rarely showed a serious attitude to face Zhong Zaisha. Because from his expression, it can be inferred that the next thing was very important.

"I have always been lonely and sorry." Zhong Zai apologized to Alina very sincerely.

"Didn't you say the apology just now? Alina has forgiven Lord Zhong Zai..." Alina said she didn't understand what was going on now.

"I want to say more than that." Zhong Zai first exhaled, calmed himself down and sorted out his thoughts, as if he was mentally preparing for the next important thing.

"Where I, since you appeared in the summoning array, no, correctly, I fell in love with you before I met you. Although it was just a childish feeling at that time, now I dare say that I really fell in love with you."

"Especially, your sudden confession made me at a loss. Because I was too happy, I was afraid that this was not true; because I was too happy, I was afraid that my dreams would wake up. So I was so cowardly that I could not do anything for you, and I didn't even say the real thoughts in my heart. Alina was also scared, not knowing what kind of master they would meet when they were summoned, and what kind of terrible game they would face next. She obviously didn't get any support from me, but was suffering from the blow of suspicion and distrust. Instead, she comforted me who was useless repeatedly."

When Zhong Zai said this, Alina's half-open mouth made a surprised voice, but she couldn't imagine how deeply the brave Lord in front of her knew him. She had been trying hard to endure without showing any uneasiness, but he still saw through his hidden heart and fully understood his feelings.

"In order to repay Alina, I also think it was my self-righteous effort. I have decided to protect you no matter what."

Alina suddenly felt a force and warmth coming from her hands, which came from the hand that Zhong Zai had caught without authorization. Although the force was not very strong, the hand held was filled with a sense of peace of mind.

"Don't worry, Alina. I will protect you from now on." You can feel his unshakable will from Zhong Zai's loud and loud words.

Only when a person has lost it can he know how to cherish the happiness he has. When he misunderstood that last night's experience was all false dreams, the sadness and powerlessness that was taken away from everything. He no longer wants to taste this feeling again, and he does not want to feel regret afterwards.

"Both me and you will definitely come back safely from the game. Well, absolutely!" Zhong Zai put an end to this long voice.

"Master Zhong Zai..." The two of them met in the air, and Alina whispered Zhong Zai's name, with a trembling voice as if telling her inner uneasiness.

Zhong Zai listened carefully to this, wanting to know Alina's response after hearing her unreserved and truest voice.

"This sentence is so unlucky. It feels like a classic dialogue that raises the death flag."

"Scared?" Even though Zhong Zai could not imagine what kind of answer Alina would give dozens of times, none of them would be consistent with reality.

What Zhong Zai wants to know is not this kind of thing!. Having said that, it seems no longer new to get an unexpected answer from Alina...

"Just like the literal meaning, Lord Zhong Zai just said that he was forbidden! This time Alina pretended to be inaudible. You must not say it casually in the next trip." Alina raised her index finger half seriously and half jokingly, making people confused about her real thoughts.

No way!? My heartfelt words actually resulted in such a scam--Yafen Butterfly!!!

"Well, don't you have any other thoughts?" Zhong Zai continued to ask without giving up.

"Other thoughts? By the way, Lord Zhong Zai must make up for it in the future and learn to avoid death flags. This is very important! Once you say the wrong thing, not only will you be a supporting role, but also the main characters will be given a bento for this!"

"..." Zhong Zai said he was unable to speak anymore... What I want to hear is not this kind of thing!!!

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Looking at Zhong Zai, who almost said aggrieved on his face, wailed: That was the determination that he had finally made... Alina was secretly smirking in secret with a bad intention.

After laughing, Alina relived Zhong Zai's confession in her mind, and then turned her back without a trace as if trying to hide something, looking very much like someone from not long ago...

Even if she said something that made people shy, Alina had a very red face. Now her face was almost red, and she was so red that it was almost dripping with water. At this time, Alina was in line with the innocent side of her appearance. Who would have thought that a girl who was ashamed of speaking was so shameless that she was erotic about such pure love dialogues.

A heart was beating around and unable to calm down, which almost made her show her feet in front of Zhong Zai, and she did not maintain her calm attitude on the surface.

She gently covered her heart with her hands as if she wanted to press her heart back, but she seemed to feel the sweet warmth that surged from the bottom of her heart. A confused look appeared in her eyes: Alina did not read the wrong person, Lord Zhong Zai is the best good man, a person worth entrusting for her whole life, and the person I like!

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－�

Zhong Zai, who didn't notice Alina's obvious abnormality, sighed. Is Alina pretending not to understand or is she really naughty at this important moment?

Think about it, how could Alina, who is as cunning as a ghost elves, be naturally stupid! The answer is obviously the former...

Well, forget it. It may not be the right time now, but at least I have sent my heart. And I was so late than Alina before I could speak out my heart. What kind of face does it mean to force her to answer immediately. This time it is my turn to be the waiter!

Zhong Zai felt relieved when he thought of this. He looked at the clock and planned to be almost time to enter the Jo-yu game competition of LeDal Group. After all, the game stipulates that the first new player game must be played twenty-four hours after the teaching of the novice.

The death flag has been erected, yes! Zhong Zai, who made an agreement with an important person, will definitely let the two return safely, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Zhong Zai can't wait to finish the game early, and then spend more happy time with Alina and create more happy memories.

Next, Zhong Zai expanded the game branding interface and clicked on the task icon above.

Whether to choose to perform a newcomer task, a green box popped up.

This mission is a newcomer mission. Since the player number 12893 is a brave player, you can choose three or less followers to participate in this mission with you. Please select now.

As introduced at the beginning of the systematic teaching, there are only three places at the moment, and all candidates who need to carefully consider the followers. If you can obtain information about the next game, you can choose the most suitable candidate.

However, Zhong Zai, who is not even a formal player, has no good idea. The only servant he can choose now is Alina.

"Then, Alina, it's time to set off to see the so-called Yu-yu competition. Just leave everything to me to solve!" Zhong Zai, who was full of confidence, reached out to invite Alina.

"Then please, Alina's brave master~" Alina smiled proudly and put her slender hands on Zhong Zai's palm without hesitation.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the fear and pressure accumulated in their chest seemed to have also been reduced a lot.

With a relaxed mood, Zhong Zai clicked the icon representing Alina and asked him to follow him to the newcomer mission.

After confirming Zhong Zai's instructions, a white light cover enveloped Zhong Zai and Alina, and the figures of the two disappeared in the white light. At the same time, this meant that their arduous journey was officially launched.
Chapter completed!
