Chapter 241: I’m Sato Shinichi, the Blondie!
The morning sun slowly shone into the dim little room through the gap in the curtains, dispelling the gloom of the messy room.
The young girl on the small bed, hugging a pure white pillow, seemed to sense something, and her tightly closed eyes trembled slightly. Finally, she reluctantly let go of the soft pillow beside her, rolled over to the side of the bedside cabinet, and squinted, fumbling for her phone.
She forced her eyes open to check the time and messages, but the sudden strong light stung her eyes, making her close them again. The girl simply put down the phone in her hand and turned to look at the clock on the desk in the distance.
“Ten o’clock…”
Half of her cheek was pressed against the pillow, squeezing a bit of fleshy cuteness out of her originally thin face. The girl, with one eye half-open, began to think about what she should do today.
The main thing was that yesterday’s events were indeed a bit busy and annoying. It was clearly her good deed of asking for a date, but it was completely ruined by that bitch. The mission at night also suddenly appeared to ruin her good deed. Most importantly, after paying such a price to completely kill her, she still let her run away!!
The hateful face of Mai Shinomiyai appeared in her mind. Kazumi, lying on the bed, lost a lot of her sleepiness and struggled to open her extremely heavy eyes.
Although the girl’s physique allowed her to minimize her need for sleep, it did not mean she did not need to rest through sleep to recover her energy. Especially after using a series of abilities yesterday and thinking during the battle, her mental energy consumption was quite large. This was why she still felt very tired from sleeping from six o’clock until now.
“I can’t sleep anymore…”
Reluctantly twisting her body again, Kazumi, with her eyes completely open, said to herself, looking at the brightly lit curtains. But her body continued to hug the pillow beside her.
“Little Black, get me my shoes and water.”
With her chin resting on the soft body of the corpse maggot mother, Kazumi said abruptly, looking at the ceiling beside her. But the next moment, a humanoid creature, covered in gray-white with sharp teeth embedded in its skin, emerged from the girl’s body and walked bent over towards the desk.
Its slender claws carefully grabbed the black mug on the table, then it bent down, took the girl’s light slippers in its mouth, and trotted towards the bed.
“Alright, alright, stop messing around, I’m getting up!”
Feeling Little Black’s smooth face rubbing against her leg as if asking for praise, Kazumi helplessly let go of the big white pillow in her arms, got up shakily, pulled her fair little feet from the ghoul’s face on the ground, picked up the cup beside her, took a sip, and casually stroked Little Black’s head a few times.
“Mmm—”
Looking at Little Black sitting on the ground with a pitiful expression, Kazumi shook her head helplessly. Her hand, which had been withdrawn, went back, and she randomly patted it a few more times.
This was probably also a downside of increased intelligence? Little Black, apart from the most basic obedience, had only grown a little from being in an environment with a strong death aura. Not knowing anything, it couldn’t even understand the girl’s verbal commands. It mainly relied on commands in its mind.
But now, this thing had become inexplicably clingy. Although the girl didn’t dislike the cute and clingy puppy, sometimes it was a bit displeasing that it disobeyed orders slightly in order to please her more.
“Go back! Otherwise, I won’t pet you anymore!”
A slightly stern voice came from the girl’s hand. Kazumi, who had also raised puppies before, knew that sometimes it was necessary to deal with disobedient pets strictly.
“Mmm↓↓↓”
This time, the gulp sounded much lower than before, but Little Black still obediently lowered its head, stood up, pitifully rubbed Kazumi’s palm with its head, and then its entire body slowly shrank, melting into the girl’s body.
Looking at her still fair hands, the girl nodded with satisfaction, placed the cup of water on the bedside cabinet, raised her right hand, and a black coffin appeared by the bed.
The big white was much more obedient than Little Black. Seeing the black coffin appear, it began to turn its body and roll towards the bed, rolling directly into the black coffin placed on the side.
Tidying up the slightly wrinkled bed, the girl continued to control the black coffin to absorb the stray death auras in the room and on herself, while picking up her phone and thinking about Little Black’s changes.
The girl had briefly mentioned Little Black’s elite evolution before. But thinking about it now, because of that capsule from the dark organization, Little Black’s evolutionary path had completely changed.
In the game, ghoul units, after becoming elite, might get only a few skills: recovering themselves by drawing on the enemy’s flesh and blood energy through attacks, strengthening their attack speed, and hardening their claws.
This was why Kazumi said that making Little Black elite could temporarily increase the overall durability of her summon team. With the double bonus of life-sucking and attack speed, facing opponents of the same level or in chaotic battles with low-end combat power, such ghouls could indeed hold on for a very long time.
And the current changes were truly beyond Kazumi’s expectations. The special parasitic ability allowed Little Black to enter the bodies of living beings at the cost of death aura. Such an attack method was particularly terrifying for flesh and blood creatures.
As long as the target had no defense measures against internal energy, or did not anticipate such a surprise attack from the inside out, this method of attacking by entering someone’s body could be said to be completely unavoidable. After all, no one could train their internal organs as hard as steel, right?
Furthermore, the ability [Death Parasitism] had more than one usage. Whether it was to transform into a tooth and parasitize Kazumi’s body to guard her personal safety at all times, or to cooperate with another energy [Undead Mutation] to enhance endless elite monsters to wear down the opponent’s strength, both were excellent strategic choices.
Compared to the abilities of ordinary ghouls, Kazumi felt that the current elite Little Black was comprehensive and bizarre, an evolution that satisfied Kazumi in every aspect.
Except for being too clingy.
Shaking her head, she dismissed the thought of Little Black for the moment, picked up her phone, and boredly enjoyed the apology her dog had given her yesterday.
She had to say that this guy’s apology was quite sincere. The sincerity was in its perfection, as it was clear that this thing was not written by him personally. It must have been that he sought advice from one of his friends, which was so cheesy.
Sato Shinichi’s lost expression when she left yesterday flashed in her mind. Looking at the cautious questions with an eagerness to say more this morning, a hint of a smile appeared on Kazumi’s cold expression. She wondered how she should reply to this pitiable guy who seemed to have not slept all night.
As if she thought of something interesting, Kazumi picked up her phone, found an angle that didn’t capture the black coffin, took a selfie, and sent it to the other person. Then, with a mischievous smile on her face, she lowered her head and typed out her message.
[Good morning, I’m a bit busy today. I had already arranged to go to the library with a senior /cute/cute]
