"I'm not good enough for him." "He's really handsome and outstanding. He's not someone an ordinary girl like me can compare to."
"Don't say that." Yuuko chuckled lightly. "You're quite beautiful, and you even won a silver award for your novel. You're both beautiful and talented, so you can't be considered an ordinary girl. Besides, no matter how ordinary you are, you can still fall in love. "
"I'm not very interested in dating." Miyabi averted her gaze.
"That's a common excuse. High school is very precious. As a person who is no longer young, I suggest that you be more active during your youth, or you may regret it later. " Yuuko paused for a moment. "For example, I've regretted more than once that I didn't confess to the boy I was secretly in love with."
Miyabi remained silent.
"It's not that I still want to be his lover now, but I can't help but think, what would happen if I mustered the courage to act? Even if we fail in the end, some sad memories will be better than not being able to say it in the end, "Yuuko continued.
Miyabi remained silent.
"I'm sorry for talking too much. At any rate, don't make yourself regret it. That's all I wanted to say. "Yuuko changed the topic.
"… I won't regret it," Miyabi stated in a low voice.
After walking along the Red Spider Lilies for a while, they encountered the second wave of skeletons.
This time, the number of skeletons had more than doubled, and it was still increasing!
"If we continue fighting like this, we'll be completely surrounded! Everyone, hurry up! Don't stop!! "Seiji instructed.
Seiji had Matsutani lead the team from the front while he stayed at the back to bring up the rear.
The group advanced quickly and soon arrived in front of a castle.
That's right, a castle!
An extravagant Sakura Island castle with white walls and a multi-tiered black roof … or more accurately, Heavensguard Tower!
For an all-girls school to have such a building, this kind of thing would probably only appear in novels.
Ya-chan controlled the demon to break open the city gate. Matsutani was the first to enter, followed by Miyabi and the others.
After Seiji, who was the last to enter the city, Ya-chan ordered the demons to close the city gate. Matsutani cast a spell to seal the city gate, blocking the skeleton army from entering.
"Is anyone hurt?" Seiji asked.
Everyone expressed that they were fine and were concerned about him.
"I'm fine too. It's great that no one was hurt. "
Their luck was pretty good. Hopefully, it would be the same for the rest of the group.
The procession continued to advance.
Seiji and Matsutani both stopped in their tracks when they arrived at a long hallway that was shrouded in faint red mist.
Seeing them stop, the others stopped as well.
"What's the matter?" Nomura asked.
"I sense danger … Don't move for now," Seiji said in a low voice. Then, he cautiously moved forward with his longsword in hand.
When he reached the middle of the corridor, a blade suddenly slashed out from the paper door beside him!
This attack was incredibly fast, so fast that Nomura and the others couldn't even see it clearly! If they were ambushed, it was very likely that they would be cut in half without even knowing what happened.
But the one who was ambushed was Seiji, who was on guard.
Clang!
He used his saber to block this sharp saber strike.
The opponent immediately changed his move. He pulled back his saber and slashed from the other side!
Seiji dodged, broke through the paper door, and saw the enemy.
It was a girl wearing a short cape, a female school uniform, and a military helmet … a zombie!
Her face was pale, and her skin was rotting. Her mouth was split open, revealing blood-red teeth. Her eyes had no eyelids. The whites of her eyes had turned black, and her pupils were gray. She seemed rather frightening.
'She was supposed to be a beautiful girl character. But after being corrupted, she became like this. '
* Whoosh! *
The zombie girl swung her saber at him again.
Seiji parried the attack with his sword. Just as he was about to counterattack, he saw the zombie girl's figure flash. She used the momentum of his attack to move and instantly disappear from his field of vision!
"What …"
Seiji didn't even have the time to be surprised when he felt a chill behind him!
* Bang! * Seiji had already cast a [Mana Shield] on himself to block this sword attack from behind.
However, the zombie girl swiftly swung her saber and broke through the barrier in two or three moves!
Seiji turned around and swung his saber again. The zombie girl retreated and dodged his attack. She sheathed her longsword at her waist and made an obvious posture of gathering power.
'This is … sword-drawing technique!? '
This type of sword technique was quite famous. Seiji recognized it at first glance and sensed danger. He hurriedly distanced himself from it.
"Dark Dream Ijutsu …" The zombie girl actually spoke in a low and eerie voice. "Snow Cut."
The next instant, she suddenly flashed and swung her saber at him!
Seiji saw a bright white line in the distance.
At this moment, he felt as if he was in a world of ice and snow. A sharp white light cut through the falling snowflakes and instantly approached him, about to cut off his head!
Fortunately, he still had …
[Bullet Time]!
* Clang!! *
After activating his life-saving skill, Seiji saw the zombie girl's blade clearly and raised his saber to block it.
However, the power of this sword-drawing attack was tremendous! He couldn't completely block it. He could only change the direction of the attack and dodge it at the same time.
Right after that, Seiji cast [Evolved Body-strengthening Technique] and transformed into his golden form.
The zombie girl chased after him.
Seiji raised his saber and blocked her rapid sword attacks. He then kicked her calf and took advantage of the moment that she lost her balance to slash at her neck!
The zombie girl took advantage of the momentum and rolled on the ground, dodging this beheading attack. She then flipped over and stood up.
Seiji didn't chase after her. He cast [Evolved Mana Shield] and activated his magical saber's defense breaking mode. His saber glowed with a silver luster.
The zombie girl sheathed her saber again and assumed a posture where she was accumulating power.
They faced each other for a few seconds.
Then, both of them charged at each other at the same time! They clashed in a split second!!
Seiji's shield shattered, and a wound also appeared on his arm.
A thick red mist gushed out from the zombie girl's waist. Her upper body slowly slid down and smashed into the ground.
"Amazing …" she spoke in a low voice again.
"You're amazing as well," Seiji turned around and spoke sincerely.
He had only won by relying on his spells. He was definitely no match for this zombie girl in terms of sword techniques.
The zombie girl chuckled lightly upon hearing his praise. She then fell silent.
Seiji took a good look at her.
If all the enemy monsters in the castle were at this level, then things would become quite troublesome.
Even with his golden flash and protective shield activated, he was only able to deal with one. If he met a group of them …
Seiji had a bad premonition just imagining it.
The combat strength of the characters in this romantic comedy story was far too high! 'Just what exactly did you write, Maishi-san? '
"Harano-kun, how are you feeling?" Matsutani appeared and asked.
"I'm fine … I'm just slightly injured." Seiji cast a healing spell on himself.
He felt that he shouldn't rely solely on himself to fight. He needed to borrow the strength of his companions.
Seiji thought this as he canceled his golden flash state and returned to his teammates' quarters together with Matsutani.
"Everyone, allow me to explain the new situation."
Seiji explained to Miyabi and the others what happened in the earlier battle.
"If that zombie girl was one of the main female characters in the story 'Sengoku Girls Saga,' then there would at most be five or six others like her. But if she was only a supporting character, then there might be a large group of them … "Seiji sighed.
