Zongman: Evolution Paradise

"So where exactly did the problem lie?"

Mitsuri Kanroji has given up on guessing; every guess she makes is wrong. Now she just wants to get the right answer from Jolyne.

Jolyne grabbed Kanroji Mitsuri's cheeks with both hands, pulled them apart and then released them, the rebound was quite elastic.

"The problem is, after I had mentally prepared myself to be with the twin sisters, I found out that Aunt Tsubakihara... also liked me."

In particular, the discovery process this time was even worse than that of Tsubakihara Nina. Jolyne forced herself to control herself and spoke of it expressionlessly.

"what?"

"Yuna, Nina, and Mrs. Mira, wouldn't you say they have a deep and incredibly bold relationship?"

The sheer volume of information was overwhelming; Kanroji Mitsuri's rapidly processing cerebellum was about to explode.

"After that, I ran away and left Tokyo to go to university in Chiba."

Yuna and Nina accepted it readily, even feeling a little smug, but adding Tsubakihara Mika to the mix would be inappropriate.

Jolyne initially thought this was an ordinary world, and she had the idea of ​​living a good life and studying at Tokyo University. She found it hard to accept this kind of thing and couldn't imagine how social death would occur if she accepted it.

Then Jolyne ran away, leaving familiar Tokyo to study in Chiba, where she even had to rely on Kato Megumi, whom she had just met, to help pay her rent.

When Jolyne saw the Tsubakihara family just now, she appeared very calm, but she was actually so embarrassed that she felt like she was trying to figure out how many rooms she had.

Mitsuri Kanroji stood in front of Jolyne and asked seriously, "Jolyne, are you a succubus?"

In the comics she'd been reading recently, succubi usually used their magic to cause families to be destroyed, wives and children to be torn apart, and enemies to be turned against each other.

Jolyne: "...What does this have to do with me?"

Kanroji Mitsuri returned to the apartment with a large bag of sweets and vividly recounted her experiences outside to Saeko and Shizuka, especially Jolyne's glorious deeds as a "succubus".

Mary looked at Jolyne thoughtfully, then her face filled with horror as she mistakenly thought she had been seduced.

For some unknown reason, Jolyne watched as her favorability rating on the Non-Human Girl Mutual Aid Manual rose instead of falling, from 95 to 96.

Shizuka Marikawa leaned closer and said earnestly to Jolyne, "No wonder I like Jolyne so much. Have you already seduced me?"

Jolyne punished her.

"If you were succubi, the moment I first saw you in Bed City, those two guys were fed to zombies, and then I was in the classroom having seven days of 'life-giving harmony' with four other people..."

Jolyne made a sarcastic remark with a blank expression.

“Even if she’s not a succubus, Jolyne is still a bad kid.” Shizuka Marikawa’s shoulders trembled, clearly dissatisfied with Jolyne’s punishment.

Chapter 135 Ghost Pokémon Master

At the start of the new week, Jolyne was not confined to her apartment by the blankets; instead, she arrived at the park for her morning exercise with great energy.

As for the content of morning exercise?

Of course, it's a battle to catch Pokémon in order to become a Pokémon Master!

As we all know, to become a Pokémon Master, you need to catch at least six Pokémon, and Jolyne currently only has three.

"Hanako, use Shadow Ball!" Jolyne commanded from the side.

Hanako covered her face with her fingers, tilted her head and glanced at her opponent, black energy gathered in front of her, turning into a spherical energy that attacked forward.

Her opponent, a human-faced dog, used a frenzied clawing attack to tear apart the energy ball.

"Hey, why are you attacking me out of the blue? Are you challenging me?" The urban legend dog with blue ears and a blue tail asked excitedly.

Her clothing was quite revealing, with the most fabric on her body being the choker around her neck.

Jorogumo discovered that she was hiding in the park and only appeared at night.

Since there was no time in the evening, Jolyne led the ghost stories out early in the morning to prepare to take her home.

"If Shadow Ball doesn't work, then switch to this move, Hanako, Arm Hammer!" Jolyne used the command method of Shakira's Eight Strikes.

But it doesn't seem to matter much. As long as you use all the moves, and add things like holding on, getting up, dodging quickly, and showing perseverance, you'll usually win.

Looking at the battle scene again, Hanako used her Arm Hammer, while the Human-Faced Dog used Crusher.

The human-faced dog was incredibly fast; Hanako missed! The human-faced dog's crushing blow landed!

"Hang in there, Hanako!"

Hanako has lost her ability to fight.

Jolyne used the Shadow Robe to retrieve Hanako and said softly, "You've done very well. Now it's up to your other companions."

In her mind, Jolyne secretly planned a scene where Hanako would be roasted with a belt, and sent Mary to the scene.

It's a ghost story that I nurtured myself, yet it can't beat a wild ghost story.

Fortunately, after being worn down by Hanako, Mary, who was stronger, successfully defeated the human-faced dog.

"I've tamed the human-faced dog!"

Mary, standing nearby, echoed in embarrassment, "...Mary...Mary."

After a unique Pokémon battle, Jolyne had Jorogumo teleport them all back.

Before saying goodbye, Jolyne glanced at the dog-faced creature's clothes and added to Sadako, "Remember to teach this guy how to dress. Hmm... a maid outfit would be nice. If you don't have a catgirl, use a doggirl instead."

“No problem, I’ll make her my master’s pet,” Sadako assured her.

In fact, Sadako didn't need to do anything; this human-faced dog was a masochist to begin with.

Jolyne thought to herself, then saw Yui Yuigahama walking over while she was walking her dog.

"Hey hello~"

Yui Yuigahama greeted them in her own way, then asked curiously, "Eh... Jolyne, what are you doing here? You don't live nearby, do you?"

As she spoke, Yui looked around, as if trying to figure out where Jolyne lived just by looking at her.

"Stop looking, I don't live nearby at all," Jolyne reminded him, and with a wave of her hand, the dachshund that Yui Yuigahama was holding on its leash instantly broke free of its head and lay down in front of Jolyne, exposing its belly.

Yui Yuigahama, who was about to exclaim in surprise at the puppy's struggle, was dumbfounded by what she saw and asked incredulously, "Why is Sabre so well-behaved in front of you? It usually looks down on people."

Sabre is the name of Jolyne's miniature dachshund, who broke free during a walk on the first day of school, thus triggering the entire Oregairu story...

"Excuse me for being blunt, but the only person this dachshund looks down on is you."

Jolyne couldn't help but complain, and Sabre, whose belly was being pinched, cleverly flicked his tail in agreement.

Yui Yuigahama puffed out her cheeks and said with dissatisfaction, "Excuse my bluntness, but what I meant was 'knowing that saying it will upset others but still saying it,' right? Since you know I'll be upset, then don't say it!"

Watching Sabre switch between spinning, shaking hands, and lying down commands with ease in Jolyne's hands, Yui Yuigahama also squatted down and ordered Sabre jealously, "Sabre, shake hands with me."

Sabre turned his backside towards Yui Yuigahama, completely ignoring her.

Seeing this, Yui Yuigahama took out her ultimate weapon: the strips of meat she had prepared in her pocket because she couldn't control Sabre.

"If you obey my orders, the meat strips are yours."

With her last bit of stubbornness, Yui Yuigahama tries to regain command of Sabre.

Sabre looked at Jolyne, then at Meatball, and hesitated for a moment before finally rushing towards Yui Yuigahama.

Before Yui Yuigahama could even put her hands on her hips and laugh, it snatched the meat strip and returned to Jolyne's side, placing it on the ground.

"Good dog, good dog."

Jolyne praised Yui Yuigahama's meat strips and bestowed them upon Sabre, causing Yui Yuigahama to let out a mournful cry like a defeated heroine.

……

After accompanying Yui Yuigahama to take Sabre home, Jolyne and she went to Soubu University together.

Although the weather was far from hot, the students of Soubu University were already showing off their fair legs, which looked quite beautiful and were a bright memory of their student days.

Of course, if your school uniform consists of dark, baggy trousers paired with a tightly sealed crew neck short-sleeved shirt, then your brightest memories of youth should be on the basketball court.

Yui Yuigahama nudged Jolyne and asked, "What event are you planning to participate in this year's sports festival?"

She was gathering information so that the class's best athletes could avoid those events and use a strategy similar to Tian Ji's horse racing to secure the class's victory.

“I’m not participating this year,” Jolyne replied calmly.

Yui Yuigahama turned her head and looked at Jolyne strangely: "Why?"

"Because it's so boring, anyway, participating this year will only allow me to break my own record from last year."

In fact, Jolyne just felt that controlling her own level to participate in competitions was really too boring.

If left unchecked, it would be quite interesting, so interesting that someone might suddenly run up to Jolyne and tell her, "You've been accepted into Kassel College early..."

However, instead of the red-haired senior student driving a sports car, a thug in a suit holding a gravity gun arrived.

The reason he participated last year was because Mafuyu Kirisu told him that if he broke the school record, he could get a school scholarship.

"In that case, Class F will be the strongest class in this year's sports festival!"

Yui Yuigahama cheered, ready to share this good news with her Miura Group.

Jolyne returned to her class, exchanged a few words with Kato Megumi as usual, and then prepared to lie down and go to sleep.

This time, however, a finger poked him, preventing Jolyne from falling asleep.

Jolyne looked up and saw Nakano Miku, who always slept.

Chapter 136 Guess who I am

"What?" Jolyne asked her.

Nakano Miku shrank back and whispered, "Um... could you please not sleep in class?"

"Why?" Jolyne looked at Nakano Miku strangely; she didn't seem like the kind of class monitor who would care about whether others were studying or not.

"Because whenever I see you sleeping, I can't help but feel sleepy and fall asleep without realizing it. It's been like this for the past few days, and I haven't learned anything..."

Nakano Miku explained the reason, then awkwardly looked away, hiding her gaze under her hair.

"The problem is, based on your entrance exam scores, even if you don't sleep, you won't learn much in the courses at Zongwu University, right?"

Zongwu University is known for its high deviation scores.

In the Japanese education system, deviation score is a standard for measuring students' academic ability, and Sobu University has the highest deviation score in Chiba City. Simply put, it is the university with the highest admission score in the city.

Based on the data Jolyne saw in that student list, these scores only indicate a considerable amount of room for improvement, with all course grades being in the single digits.

Given Nakano Miku's grades, it was naturally impossible for her to keep up with the teaching pace of the Soubu University professors. Jolyne was also very curious as to why they transferred to a school that basically only had top students.

Rebuffed by Jolyne's merciless retort, Nakano Miku stiffly returned to her seat.

Words are not a sharp knife; the truth is.

Nakano Miku really couldn't understand a thing!

She could have used the excuse of being unable to study due to the influence of bad students to numb herself, but Jolyne ruthlessly exposed her mistake.

Kato Megumi, who observed the entire process, nudged Jolyne and said, "Jolyne-kun went too far with her words. Should we go and comfort her?"

“If telling the truth is considered excessive, it further proves that she is not suitable for Soubu University. After the next exam, her test scores and rankings will be much higher than mine,” Joren argued to Kato Megumi.

Grades aren't everything, but when the results are released, most people still can't help but feel anxious as they search for their name.

The name could be easily alleviated in other places, but its appearance at the end can leave those who want to learn feeling lost and disoriented, like drowning in a crowd...

Undeterred by Jolyne's words, Kato Megumi quickly grasped the key point and calmly retorted, "That's true, but Jolyne is changing the subject. The matter of grades happened after the exams, so it hasn't happened yet. But it's true that you said something excessive; it has already happened."

"I feel that Hui is getting smarter and smarter, but I still refuse."

"Hey, why?"

Because of Nakano Miku's interlude, Jolyne didn't continue sleeping and quietly listened to the lesson for a while, but it was really too easy.

While improved intelligence doesn't necessarily mean becoming smarter, it does enhance thinking, logical analysis, and memory abilities.

Moreover, even if she hadn't become a player, Jolyne's grades weren't bad to begin with. After leaving Tokyo, she came to Chiba instead of Saitama or Osaka because Sobu University offered the most scholarships.

After the first class, Jolyne watched Nakano Miku leave. A while later, Jolyne, who was talking to Kato Megumi, was poked in the back again.

"Apologize to me."
