After venting a little, Crystal wrapped her arms around Xiao's body and pressed her cheek against his chest.

Although she didn't know what Xiao and the others had done specifically, she knew it must have been very dangerous.

"Don't worry, what could possibly happen to me? Lucy and the others are fine too."

"Idiot! Even though I know you'll be fine, I'm still worried."

Crystal looked at the grinning Xiao with some anger.

"I'm sorry for making you so worried."

"Since you feel so guilty, then make it up to me in the evening."

Crystal asked shyly.

"I didn't expect you to say such a thing."

"Ugh! You're avoiding the question again, you wimp."

Xiao pinched Crystal's puffy little face.

"Can you wait a little longer?"

"You bastard... I'll just have to wait a little longer."

Crystal buried her flushed face in Akatsuki's arms.

The two of them hugged each other quietly until a somewhat inappropriate cough attracted their attention.

"Ahem, you two still have plenty of time after we go back. Can we take care of the important matters first?"

Chapter 80: You don’t even have an outbreak in adversity, you are definitely not the protagonist

Vida entered the room and looked at the two of them awkwardly.

"Sister Vida, I'm sorry..."

Christo pushed Xiao away embarrassedly.

"Sister Vida? When did you two become so close?"

Xiao was very surprised by Crystal's intimate attitude towards Vida.

"Usually, it's just me and Chris chatting a lot, and before we know it, we..."

Vida seemed a little embarrassed when Crystal called her sister.

But she still had that dull expression, which made Xiao feel even more concerned.

"Okay, let's get down to business. Nakamura is busy in the office with that woman Maren."

"What are they doing?"

"Don't worry about it."

"Your expression really concerns me, okay?"

Vida blushed a little, while Xiao had a lewd smile on his face.

This made Crystal very concerned about what the two people meant.

"Since you're so curious about what it means..."

Xiao whispered an explanation in her ear.

"Doing that kind of thing in the office? That's too..."

Crystal looked at Xiao with a flushed face, her voice trembling with surprise.

"Isn't this a normal way of playing?"

"What do you mean by normal gameplay?!"

"Alright you two."

Vida didn't get angry when he saw the two of them fooling around. Instead, he had a stiff smile on his face.

The envy in those eyes made Xiao and Crystal quiet down.

"Then let's start now."

"What the hell happened?!"

Nakamura, who was making love with Maren in the office, cursed loudly.

A huge explosion interrupted his interest, and Maren was very disappointed and looked unhappy.

"Oh no, Nakamura-sama... Maren, why are you here?!"

Vida rushed into the office covered in injuries and exclaimed while leaning against the door.

"Hmph, ugly girl, how can you..."

"Vida, what happened?"

Nakamura pushed Maren, who was riding on him, away and picked up the pants beside him.

"Tsk!"

Seeing Nakamura showing some concern, Maren clicked her tongue unhappily.

"Ms. Crystal was taken away!"

"Tsk! That bastard named Xiao, why did he do it now when he could have done it before?"

Nakamura cursed loudly and began to put on his clothes in a panic.

"My dear hero, do you need any help?"

"You help me treat Vader. I'll go deal with that bastard."

Nakamura slapped Maren's hand off his shoulder and ordered.

"No, I don't want to touch that ugly girl."

"This is an order. Get out if you don't agree."

"I-I know."

Nakamura saw Maren honestly starting to search the cabinet for the medicine box, so he quickly rushed out of the room.

"Tsk! That bastard really just treats me as a toy."

Maren threw the medicine box next to Vida and cursed Nakamura harshly.

"you you…"

"Shut up ugly girl!"

Maren stepped hard on Vida's abdomen, causing her to groan in pain.

"Hey, you're pretty strong. It would be troublesome if you died here, so let me treat you properly."

Maren smiled evilly and began to search for medicine in the medicine box.

She first poured disinfectant directly onto Vida's wound and began to clean it roughly.

The explosion outside had no effect on her, but instead made Maren smile.

"Well, you are quite patient."

She felt a little annoyed when she saw that Vida didn't say anything.

She simply sterilized the needle and began to sew up Vida's wound.

Without any paralyzing measures, Vida bit his lips hard and did not make any sound.

"You're doing pretty well. How about I help you with a few more wounds?"

Facing Maren's provocation, Vida simply responded with a distorted look in his eyes.

"What's that look in your eyes? It's like I'm the bad guy!"

Maren pulled Vida up from the ground and glared at her fiercely.

"Do you know what I've been through because of you, bitch?!"

Vida said nothing, but just looked at Maren who was a little crazy.

"You bastard... just wait, I will make you and that bastard regret it!"

When Maren saw that Vida did not respond to her plan, she threw her to the ground and stormed out of the office angrily.

"Mr. Nakamura, that's not right. Perhaps the title of Former Chief Brave is more suitable for you."

Akatsuki, wearing a silver-white mask, sat on the ruins and mocked Nakamura who was kneeling on the ground.

"You bastard, if you dare to scream like that again, I will definitely, cough cough, definitely kill you!"

Nakamura coughed up blood and looked at Xiao with murderous intent.

Now the gorgeous armor on his body is in tatters.

And Nakamura's favorite magic sword had long since turned into fragments.

"Even if I don't call you that, will you spare my life, former Chief Hero?"

Akatsuki responded jokingly, not paying any attention to Nakamura's anger.

Nakamura picked up the spare sword beside him and jumped up again to chop at Xiao without giving up.

Once again, just as the blade was about to reach Akatsuki, it was deflected by some barrier.

Nakamura also fell to the ground in a very embarrassed manner due to the impact of the barrier.

"The former Chief Brave Master has no learning ability at all. No wonder he fell from the throne."

Xiao crossed his legs, supported his head with one hand and stared at the bruised Nakamura.

"You bastard!"

Nakamura gritted his teeth and launched another meaningless attack.

"So, you want to give up now?"

Xiao casually peeled off a small piece from the wall and gently threw it towards Nakamura.

Noticing another scar on his cheek, which he thought was handsome, Nakamura's hand holding the hilt of the knife trembled with anger.

"You must be joking. I'm a brave man. How could I give up?"

"Oh, oh, that's a line from a shonen manga."

Xiao acted as if he was delighted to see something new and novel.

"So what are you going to do now? Continue shouting about justice to gain sympathy and attention?"

"W-what do you mean?"

"My lord, how many people do you think will believe the justice you are talking about?

Now everyone in Pierre-El and even Warhol hates you."

"I am a hero, a hero chosen by the gods. How dare those untouchables disobey me!"

"Ah, ah I'm tired of hearing this line. Do you have anything else?"

"You are such a despicable fellow!"

"Do you know there's something called a mirror?"

Xiao sighed helplessly.

"I tried so hard to play the villain, and this is all you, the hero, can do.

I can't even muster the energy to mock him."

Xiao saw a flash of light on the horizon and decided to end the farce.

"I was expecting you to be completely defeated when you faced adversity like the protagonist in a novel.

It's a pity that you don't seem to be the protagonist."
