"Shiryu, I challenge you to compete with me!"
I don't know where Takashi got the confidence to say that.
Moments ago, Souichiro announced that he needed additional help to find food and water supplies out there.
He wanted the survivors to also form a group and come along with his subordinates. Not everyone, but only those who were willing to do so.
And as Souichiro expected, only a few of them dared to join.
"Compete in what way? Wait, Takashi. You seem to have misunderstood." Shiryu looked very fresh this morning, he was smiling until his white teeth were visible.
For Takashi and the other men who heard the noises from his bedroom, it was very annoying!
Many of them were gnashing their teeth including Kohta and Ishigami. After all, last night. That man had been having fun with beautiful women. He was not like those who slept in tents and felt cold.
This morning, when he first saw Shiryu without the company of his women, Takashi even glared at him while clenching his fists hard.
He certainly wanted to ask about what he did to Rei, Saeko and the other women. However, he swallowed back his words.
The protagonist suddenly became a coward, he didn't dare to hear the truth Shiryu would say.
He held back his anger so as not to be impulsive.
At least until what Souichiro said about dividing the group among the survivors.
Takashi had an idea to compete with Shiryu. His intention was not to win against him, but to kill him out there!
Shiryu noticed the killing intent in Takashi's eyes, he looked at him with amusement. It seemed like it was time for one of the protagonists in this world to disappear.
"Unlike you who plan to stay here and depend on Souichiro-san. My group and I are planning to leave here."
Hearing this, Takashi was stunned. He didn't know what to say.
But one thing was certain.
He had to stop Shiryu!
This might be his only chance to kill him!
Luckily Souichiro was also around and said, "Shiryu, why don't you and your group continue to stay here? I know you also have your own personal sanctuary. But I'm sure that together with us, you and your group will be safer. As you can see, I and my subordinates have firearms."
Takashi's eyes lit up, "What Souichiro-san said is right, Shiryu. You must not be selfish and make the women in your group suffer because of you."
"Heh." Shiryu laughed.
The protagonist of Highschool of the Dead had completely separated himself from his image in the original work.
He was different from who he was supposed to be.
After receiving several setbacks, he became dark.
[That's natural. After all, you've stolen all the members of the protagonist's harem, host.]
System-chan, you're not wrong.
The protagonists are human too, they definitely show their bad side when they feel disadvantaged.
In the original work, Takashi looked cool and many people liked him to the point of hating those who made him look ugly.
But Shiryu is also human, he can't possibly give in just because his opponent is a protagonist.
Instead of sucking up to him like some fanfic protagonists, he'd rather defeat him.
"Why are you laughing!? Shiryu, we're talking seriously to you!"
Takashi pointed at him in front of everyone as if he wanted the others to support him and pressure Shiryu.
He really shouldn't let him take those women including his childhood friend away.
Souichiro's subordinates who were jealous of Shiryu seemed to be affected by the protagonist's halo and raised their voices.
"Boy, it's not good for you to separate yourself from professionals like us."
"Yes, you should continue to stay here."
"Did the women in your group even agree to leave this place?"
From those men, Shiryu could see the mocking gazes and greed towards his women.
Gosh, they really wanted to die.
Souichiro, don't blame me for what's going to happen in the near future.
Shiryu stopped smiling but before he replied to Takashi and Souichiro's words—
"I and the other women in Shiryu-san's group have agreed to follow him anywhere after this."
"So, there's no problem, right?"
A girl's cold voice sounded.
Many people in the courtyard glanced at Kaguya who came with Hayasaka. They had also recognized her identity as the daughter of the Shinomiya Group.
Because of that, the soldiers who helped Takashi suppress Shiryu didn't dare to speak anymore.
They had to be careful with Kaguya's background.
Although the world had become what it was today, who knew what the Shinomiya Group would do if the young lady of their family hated certain people.
"Shinomiya family girl, are you sure? You'd rather follow a boy than stay here?" Souichiro asked.
If possible, he wanted Kaguya to stay in his group so that he could be on good terms with the Shinomiya Group in the future.
Before Kaguya answered "Yes" without hesitation, Shiryu mocked his future father-in-law.
"Souichiro-san, can you stop chasing after the women in my group? You might make your wife jealous."
By the way, Yuriko was also there. She pretended not to remember about what she saw last night. But unbeknownst to her husband, she occasionally peeked at Shiryu with a hint of embarrassment on her beautiful face.
This time, she did not pay much attention to her husband and was indifferent to him.
Shiryu smirked in his heart.
Souichiro's face looked grim and he glared at her sharply. "Shiryu, be careful with your words. I'm just worried about the safety of the women in your group. Many of them are also Saya's schoolmates."
"Really? It's fine if you're just worried about them."
Shiryu's words clearly sounded misleading.
Kaguya looked at Souichiro and even protagonist Takashi with disdain. She certainly had not forgotten about what Shiryu had written about those two men in his diary before.
The former seemed to like women much younger than him even though he already had a wife.
While the latter? He kept targeting her benefactor, Shiryu. It annoyed her and made her hate him.
Hayasaka did not say anything, she continued to stand beside her employer like a maid.
Even so, her gaze occasionally glanced at Shiryu curiously. This morning, she saw many women she knew come out of Shiryu's bedroom naked, and they all seemed to be in a hurry to go to the bathroom.
Hayasaka was not so innocent, she knew those women including the student council secretary, Chika had spent the night with Shiryu!
Some of them were even dripping white liquid from their crotches in the hallway.
Hayasaka felt her face heat up as she recalled the scene.
Shiryu was a beast! He had fucked that many women last night.
"Shiryu, you're rude! Souichiro-san is Saya's father and the owner of this place. You should respect him more!"
Takashi opened his mouth again.
In this life, he seemed to be sucking up to Souichiro.
Shiryu chose to ignore him and look down on him.
Takashi's expression became ugly, he was so angry that he wanted to explode on the spot.
"Ahem! Alright, that's enough. Let's drop this topic." Souichiro pretended to cough then glanced at Kaguya again. "Girl of the Shinomiya family, are you sure your words represent the other women in the Shiryu group?"
"Yes." Kaguya said.
Or rather, she had talked to Saeko and the other women in Shiryu's group when they had breakfast together this morning.
From the first, she knew Shiryu did not plan to continue staying at Souichiro's shelter.
She decided to come with them. Because in her opinion, they would be safer with Shiryu.
"I understand. But... Where are the other women?"
"Ah, that..."
Kaguya was confused as to what to answer.
She herself did not know why Saeko and the women in Shiryu's group seemed to have trouble walking.
That was why they were still living inside the Takagi family home now.
Hayasaka answered for her employer. "They just woke up and need more time to start activities."
Shiryu rubbed his nose.
Of course, he also knew why his women hadn't come to the courtyard and argued with these people.
Hayasaka glanced at Shiryu flatly.
'That man... Doesn't he feel embarrassed?'
Unfortunately no, Shiryu was instead proud of being able to make Saeko and the other beauties have trouble walking for a while.
Souichiro believed what Hayasaka said. After all, his wife sometimes took a long time to get ready.
To be more precise, many women were like that.
Takashi was disappointed, he was also very envious. Why would girls like Kaguya and Hayasaka defend Shiryu?
'Damn!'
On the other side, the protagonist Shirogane also felt uncomfortable because Kaguya didn't even give him a glance.
Did she not care about him anymore?
"By the way, even though I said me and my group would leave this sanctuary. We're not going to do it now."
Shiryu considered his women who had trouble walking.
There was also another reason, and that was...
"So Takashi, you should be happy. I agreed to compete with you."
Kaguya and Hayasaka: "....."
They had no idea what Shiryu was planning.
Takashi was happy and said, "Good! Whoever gets more supplies to is the winner."
He had his own plans and wasn't really concerned with gathering food and water supplies.
"And what if I win? Can I make any requests of you, Takashi?"
"Request?" Takashi was confused, he didn't know what kind of request Shiryu had but... He snorted and said, "Sure, I'll do whatever you say if you win, Shiryu."
Shiryu nodded in satisfaction.
Behind his smile, no one knew what he was thinking.
Kohta had a bad feeling, he told Takashi not to bet with Shiryu.
But Takashi argues and says this is his personal business.
Souichiro frowned, "You two, stop. Do you two think I approve of the game you're playing? This mission is no place for games."
Shiryu and Takashi fell silent.
They had no intention of stopping with what they were planning even if he said that.
"Souichiro, just let them do what they want. Young people need motivation and their competition is not a bad idea."
Yuriko approached her husband and said that.
Hearing what his wife said, Souichiro who had a guilty conscience about what happened yesterday reluctantly gave in.
Soon, they all prepared.
This time, Shiryu did not invite the women in his group including Kaguya and Hayasaka. She told them to wait at the shelter.
After all, it would be difficult to move according to his plan if they were around. He did not even join the other survivor groups and decided to go solo.
Takashi was excited because in his opinion, it was better if Shiryu was alone. Still, before they set off.
"Shiryu-kun, can you come with me for a moment?" Yuriko used the opportunity to talk to the boy in front of her.
Shiryu was slightly surprised and nodded, "Sure."
"Follow me."
Yuriko grabbed one of his hands and pulled him to the other side of the deserted villa.
Shiryu couldn't help but glance at her plump ass in the process. At that moment, Souichiro did not even notice his wife leaving with another man alone.
He was busy teaching the survivors including Takashi on how to use firearms.
After feeling moved to a location far enough away from the crowd, Yuriko disentangled herself from Shiryu and turned to look at him.
At that moment, she did not immediately open her mouth and was stunned as the memory of last night came to mind.
She couldn't help but glance at the bulge in his pants.
Even while still inactive, it still looked bigger than her husband's.
"Yuriko-san, where are you looking?" Shiryu asked.
In his heart, he was excited.
Yuriko was more aggressive than he thought, her loyalty to her husband also seemed to be lower than the original work.
[Host, I'll say it again. You're too confident.]
System-chan, want to bet?
[No.]
Shiryu was a little disappointed.
System-chan: Do you think I don't know you want to trick me into giving you more rewards quickly? Sorry, that's not possible.
Hearing Shiryu's question, Yuriko gasped and hurriedly turned her gaze to his face.
"Sorry Shiryu-kun, I was thinking if I was worrying too much? After all, you're the boy that my daughter seems to like."
"Yuriko-san is worried about me? I'm very happy."
Shiryu stepped forward and made his chest almost bump into the chest of the woman in front of him.
Yuriko froze, she hesitated to step back and in the end, she did not.
Perhaps because she really thought her husband was more interested in women much younger than him, she herself felt less guilty about her actions.
The atmosphere between them was definitely ambiguous now.
The scent of Shiryu's entry didn't help either, it made Yuriko feel a little dizzy.
"H-How could I not? You brought Saya home safely. Hearing that you're going out alone to gather food and water supplies for us, I feel the need to give you something."
"Something?"
Shiryu was curious as to what exactly Yuriko wanted to give him.
Yuriko took out a gold-colored pistol from her cleavage and handed it to him, "This is one of my collections, the Desert Eagle, a large-caliber semi-automatic pistol. With one shot from this gun, you can crack the heads of those creatures (zombies). I've tested it several times before."
Shiryu widened his eyes, he accepted the gun from Yuriko's hand and felt that it was still warm.
Or rather, he was surprised at how such a big gun could fit in her chest!?
Yuriko's breasts were amazing.
Souichiro had this woman as his wife, but he did not know how to have fun with her.
[In that case, let me take your place to take care of Yuriko, Souichiro.]
The heroines: "!?!?"
Shiryu, what are you suddenly writing!?
Yuriko did not know why Shiryu suddenly took out his diary and wrote.
Did he suddenly get another idea for his future novel?
Suddenly, she was quite happy to be able to help him with that.
Shiryu closed his diary, and put it back into the inner pocket of his jacket along with the Desert Eagle that Yuriko had given him.
"Thank you Yuriko-san, but I wonder if this is your way of taking revenge on her husband? Yesterday he did more or less the same thing to Saeko and was rejected."
He was talking about the cold military katana Souichiro had given Saeko.
Yuriko's smile froze, and she slightly shifted her gaze to the side. "Of course not. Shiryu-kun, you're thinking too much. I don't hate Souichiro because of that either."
"You don't hate him, but you're sad and lonely, right?"
"No, that's... S-Shiryu-kun, where did you put your hand?! Stop, you can't do this..."
She said that in panic because at this moment, Shiryu hugged her waist and made their bodies stick together.
Yuriko felt both embarrassed and annoyed. However, her resistance was weak because what he said was true!
Not only that.
"You seem to be expecting this, Yuriko-san." Shiryu smiled faintly, and enjoyed the soft sensation of the woman's curvaceous body in his arms.
"No way! You misunderstand, Shi—" Yuriko wanted to argue, but her mouth was suddenly silenced.
She was being kissed by a man other than her husband!
Shiryu even put his tongue in her mouth.
Yuriko widened her eyes. However, she slowly closed her mouth and moved her tongue.
'This boy...! How dare he...! Ah, I'm sorry, Souichiro... I...'
She apologized to her husband in her heart.
Even so, the feeling of safety and comfort when Shiryu hugged and kissed her made her drunk.
It took away her loneliness that her husband did not love her much.
Yuriko did not want to resist and enjoyed the kiss from a boy who was the same age as her own daughter.
She also didn't stop Shiryu's hands from squeezing her ass in the process.
As they kissed passionately, the scene happened to be witnessed by Osaragi who was walking in the hallway alone.
She saw what the two were doing from the window and was startled before adjusting the position of her glasses.
"Shiryu-kun and Yuriko-san... The two of them have such a relationship? That's surprising."
"It seems this is what Shiryu-kun meant in his diary earlier."
In other words, Shiryu gave Souichiro a green hat.
Shiryu was amazing.
No, should she call him a bastard?
Not only did he make girls like Saeko and the others fall in love with him. He was even targeting a married woman.
Five minutes later.
Shiryu stopped kissing Yuriko and left her gasping for breath.
He also reluctantly stopped hugging her before saying, "I want to go further with you, Yuriko-san. But let's save that for later. I have to go now."
There was no need to rush.
He was sure he had planted a seed in the woman's heart.
Yuriko's face turned red, I don't know if it was from embarrassment or anger. "You, you... You think there's a next time!?"
She stammered and only watched as Shiryu disappeared from her sight. She stood dazedly in that spot for a while before running into the house from the back door.
For a moment, she was like Saya.
Speaking of that tsundere girl. I don't know how she reacted when she found out her mother and the guy she liked were kissing behind her back.
Instead of being scared, Shiryu found it interesting to see.
...
Time passed.
It had been a while since he had split up from the other groups tasked with finding food and water supplies in the city.
He walked on the street and shot the head of every zombie that ran towards him.
*Bang! Bang! Bang!*
The gun Yuriko gave him was of good quality.
It was completely capable of cracking a zombie's head with a single shot. Of course, he also gave him spare bullets to reload.
Although there weren't that many.
As for how he knew how to shoot?
"It was worth it for me to occasionally go to the Shooting Club before the pandemic started. Come to think of it, I should have also bought a firearm but alas..."
Shiryu sighed.
Firearms were illegal in this country and certainly not freely traded. He didn't have enough time to buy one on the black market before the zombie pandemic started.
"Should I use that ability card myself?"
That way, he could make his own weapon.
While he was thinking, some zombies from a supermarket beside him growled at him.
"Graorr!"
Their skin was all pale, their eyes red and veins bulging all over their bodies.
No matter how many times Shiryu saw the appearance of the people infected with the Rage virus, he felt it was scarier than the zombies in Resident Evil or other zombie movies.
Of course, it wasn't that she was afraid of them after becoming this strong.
*Bang! Bang! Bang!*
He kept firing at them without caring that the bullets would run out.
At this point, anyone would think Shiryu was wasting ammunition and would quickly be unable to use his firearm again.
They don't know he's doing it on purpose to show someone.
Who else but the protagonist Takashi?
"Shiryu, I want you to die!"
Just as Shiryu walked into the abandoned supermarket and drank a can of Pepsi casually.
At the entrance, he saw a boy with a firearm in his hand.
In this situation, what should a villain do?
