Shirou's clones number 30 million

Nyaruko sat upright, placing three fingers on the ground with each hand in a respectful bow, just like a wife bowing to her husband on her wedding night.

“As I just greeted you, I am Nyarlathotep, and I usually serve as the Wriggling Chaos. Shirou, please call me Nyarlathotep as you did before.”

"Don't do this suddenly in the street! It's embarrassing, even though there's nobody around."

Shirou Yasaka looked around and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If someone saw this, I would definitely become the talk of the town on the surrounding streets.

"Nyaruko? Why are you protecting me?"

"Because Shirou has been targeted by a criminal organization in space. Their goal is to kidnap you and sell you at a high price to someone who needs you."

Nyarko stood up nonchalantly and explained with a smile:

"Shirou should also be well aware that your appearance... your abilities are extremely dangerous, which is why you've been targeted."

"You just mentioned appearance, didn't you?"

"Hehe... This is just my personal opinion. According to my boss, you can gain the corresponding abilities after cosplaying any anime protagonist, which is far too dangerous."

"I've always been very low-key, so it turns out it's already reached the universe?"

Shirou Yasaka remarked, then asked again:

"It has nothing to do with appearance, right?"

"Probably not. Although I felt a flutter in my heart when I saw Shirou's photos before, it's just my personal opinion. I don't know what other people think."

"You don't need to say that out loud. Don't you have any shame?"

"Huh?" Nyaruko instantly blushed and cautiously peeked at Shirou.

"It's too late! What's the point of making that expression now?"

Shirou Yasaka couldn't help but retort, and asked again:

"You're protecting me on your superior's orders? Does that mean I can't refuse?"

"Shirou, are you going to refuse? You're in a dangerous situation right now. Those were just small, insignificant groups. There will definitely be more criminal gangs coming to attack you later."

"Was my ability really this dangerous?"

"Danger is only one aspect; the bigger aspect is the fun. Earth isn't ranked in the Universal Alliance, but it has quite a reputation, mainly because of Earth's animation, comics, and so on..."

"So, I'm very popular because I can cosplay anime protagonists and have their abilities?"

"Shirou understands quickly, that's it. Research organizations want to analyze your abilities, talent agencies want to train you to be the number one superstar in the universe, and criminal gangs want to use your abilities to achieve certain goals."

"I see."

Shirou Yasaka had a very strong sense of déjà vu for some reason, and then suddenly realized what was happening two seconds later.

Isn't this just the same old trope of a veteran soldier returning to act as a bodyguard to protect a rich young lady? The only difference is that he's now playing the lead role of the rich young lady.

How do you plan to protect me?

"Of course we're together 24/7."

"I don't have any currency from the universe to pay you as a reward."

"No need, this is my job. Shirou just needs to accept my protection."

"I see. Well then... I look forward to working with you in the future."

Being protected by a beautiful girl might feel a little uncomfortable, but it's not necessarily a bad thing.

"Okay... I was just doing it for work, I wasn't... I wasn't worried about Shirou."

"Why are you suddenly speaking in this tone? It feels so awkward!"

"Because this seems to be very popular on Earth lately."

"Your information is too outdated; the tsundere character is outdated. Besides, this kind of character is completely unsuitable for you."

"..."

Why did you suddenly stop talking?

"It's nothing, just a bit of a feeling. Moe truly is a universal culture."

Shirou Yasaka was confused and looked at her, not understanding what was going on.

After a long while, it suddenly dawned on me that, if I wasn't mistaken, this guy seemed to mean that my expression just now was cute?

No matter how you look at it, this is definitely the female lead's script, right?

Forget it, I won't think about it too much.

"In that case, will you be staying at my house for a while?"

"Yes, that makes it easier to protect. Besides, my previous stronghold was burned down, so it's uninhabitable for the time being."

"In that case, let's go to the supermarket to buy some daily necessities before we go back."

"Thank you. Shirou, you wouldn't happen to have fallen in love with me at first sight, would you?"

"Idiot, don't say things like that all of a sudden. Don't you have any shame?"

"If Shirou wants it, I can have it."

"Is this something you take when you need it and throw away when you don't?"

Chapter 593 Do you want to cling to me for life? Don't dream about it.

Chapter 593, Section 594: Do you want to cling to me for life? Don't dream about it.

"Wow...! This is undoubtedly paradise!"

Having entered Shirou Yasaka's room without permission, Nyaruko excitedly pounced on the piles of manga, light novels, and games that filled the room.

"This game is out of print, I couldn't find it anywhere, I didn't expect Shirou to have it, that's amazing!"

"We seem to like similar things, it must be fate. It was worth it for me to ask my boss for so long before I got this assignment."

"Not only these, but there are so many cosplay outfits in the wardrobe. I'm really in for a treat."

Shirou Yasaka was speechless. What was with this perverted behavior? You've got the wrong script, huh?

"Don't rummage through my closet, it's a hassle to tidy up. Besides, I didn't say you could come into my room whenever you wanted."

Nyarko excitedly rummaged through drawers and cabinets as if she were playing a treasure hunt, completely ignoring what Yasaka Shirou was saying.

In just a few minutes, the once very tidy room became a mess.

Seeing this, Yasaka Shirou could no longer bear it and punched her temples hard.

“Listen to me! This is my room, not your secret hideout.”

"Sorry, seeing so many tempting items, I just couldn't contain my excitement." Nyaruko grinned foolishly.

"Don't play dumb, I'm not falling for that."

Yasaka Shirou put his hands on his hips, thought for a moment, and then slowly spoke:

"Since you're going to be living here from now on, I have to make a few agreements with you."

"Your room is next door. From now on, you are not allowed to enter my room without permission. In return, I will not enter your room without permission."

"Huh...? I don't mind at all. Even if Shirou wants to share a room with me, it's perfectly fine." Nyaruko said with a smile. "In fact, it's better this way."

"No way!" Yasaka Shirou paused, then said with a hint of helplessness, "Don't you even understand? We just met today, why are you acting so familiar?"

"Hehe... While looking at the photo of my target, I felt like I suddenly heard a series of crackling sounds. To put it simply, it was like hitting the bullseye right at the right moment. I fell in love with you at first sight."

As she spoke, Nyaruko's face flushed red, but her words and actions became even more unrestrained.

"So, it's perfectly fine for us to become newlyweds right away."

Shirou Yasaka was slightly taken aback, never expecting that he would be confessed to by a girl.

However, I always feel really uncomfortable if the object is this guy.

It's not that I dislike her, but she was so unrestrained on the very first day we met. If I were to actually date her, I would definitely be led by the nose.

and so--

"I refuse! Although I don't dislike you, I don't know you very well yet. We should start dating after we get to know each other better."

"Shirou hesitated just now, didn't he? I'm always OK."

"No! I was just wondering whether what you said was the truth or a lie."

"Everything I said came from the bottom of my heart."

As they were talking, Nyaruko suddenly sat down on the edge of the bed and patted the bed with a smile.

"According to intelligence, Shirou goes to bed promptly at 8 PM every night. It's already quite late tonight. How are you feeling? Do you want to sleep?"

"Absolutely not! The reason I used to go to bed early was just a personal habit. In fact, it wouldn't matter if I didn't sleep at all."

Shirou Yasaka paused, then continued:

"In addition, I am actually a very light sleeper, and I will wake up at the slightest sound."

"So, if you're thinking of launching a night raid, you've got the wrong idea."

"Don't worry, Shirou, I'll be very careful not to make a sound when I come over tonight," Nyaruko said with a grin.

"I was just saying it casually, are you really planning a night raid?"

"I was just kidding."

Just as Yasaka Shirou was about to retort, he suddenly realized, "I'm not a weak woman. How come I'm acting like a vulnerable person just because I've picked up the wrong female lead's script?"

So what if she comes over at night? We'll just kick her out.

To be honest, she probably can't beat herself, right?

Damn it! It's all this guy's fault for not playing by the rules, which has led me to be led by the nose the whole time.

"By the way, according to the usual pattern in comics, have you already completed the enrollment procedures? And then, you'll be transferring to my class tomorrow morning."

"Shirou is so clever. I was going to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect you to guess it so quickly."

"It's not hard to guess. Rather, since you're here to protect, this is how things are bound to happen."
