Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

Let's turn our attention back to Chiba—

Luo Zhen looked up at the sky from the rooftop.

At this moment, he was extremely calm.

Many people say that when people are well-fed and clothed, they think of sexual desires.

After finishing his meal, Luo Zhen just wanted to find a place to lie down and not think about anything.

"You really look like a giant salted fish right now."

"Irena, who was sitting next to Luo Zhen, complained."

Now, Luo Zhen's eyes are exactly the same as those of Hachiman Hikigaya back then.

However, Hachiman Hikigaya is now a man with a girlfriend.

Moreover, the two have a very good relationship and can be considered a model couple.

It's not just because they have a good relationship, but also because they have already made plans for the future and are both working very hard to improve themselves so as not to hold each other back.

Two realistic people who knew that life wouldn't be easy in the future didn't look down on each other after they got together.

Instead, they supervise and encourage each other.

So, if you're materialistic, then so be it.

Let's not use any nice-sounding terms like "more realistic," okay?

In today's society, no one will laugh at you for being materialistic, and everyone can accept it, so let's not hide it.

Some people are realistic and hope their partner has excellent qualities, and don't want to live a hard life together.

Realistic people will improve themselves, enrich themselves, and become better.

Even if I don't get married in the future and don't rely on anyone else, I can still live a very good and refined life.

That's called reality and excellence.

Instead of doing nothing but asking for exorbitant prices with just words, and pinning your future on others.

They treat themselves as commodities to be sold.

They often spout all sorts of fallacies that sound reasonable at first glance but upon closer inspection are utter nonsense.

Why not just say you want to find someone rich? You state your requirements, I'll find my target, and neither of us will waste time.

What do you mean by "excellent people are never short of suitors"?

Before we say that, can we take a look at our own situation?

It can only be said that blind dates arranged by parents are not necessarily reliable.

Ahem, we've gotten a bit off-topic.

Let's return our attention to the rooftop.

Luo Zhen ignored Elena's complaints.

Now all he wants is to be a carefree, unambitious person.

Even if the world were to end the next second, he wouldn't...

Okay, we still need to get this going.

Soon, lunch break was over.

With a reluctant expression, Luo Zhen was dragged into the classroom by Elena.

I can understand Luo Zhen's desire to rest.

But it was Luo Zhen himself who asked Elena to get him moving when he was being lazy.

Chapter 579 Why Am I Not a Beautiful Girl?

No matter how glamorous a city is, there are always places where the sun cannot reach.

The dark, damp sewers were filled with a rotten, fishy stench.

A fat, filthy rat darted out from a dark corner.

Its dark eyes scanned the surrounding scenery, as if searching for something.

But judging from the gray mouse's body language, it seems to be hiding from something.

No matter what kind of movie it is, there always seem to be some strange and terrifying creatures in the sewers.

After all, with sewers being so filthy, it wouldn't be surprising if they bred creatures that defy human understanding.

Especially since this sewer is located in Japan, a country that talks about environmental protection but dumps nuclear wastewater into the sea.

Therefore, people who believe Japan's so-called environmental slogans are either stupid or malicious.

Hopefully, if Godzilla ever does appear in the future, before it takes action, it will imitate its creator, putting its hands together in a very polite gesture and saying:

"I'm gonna start now."

After observing for a long time, the bloated gray rat seemed to finally relax, and the fear in its eyes slowly faded, but it still maintained a vigilant posture.

The familiar sewers offered it no sense of security at this moment.

Its front paws gently tread on the moss growing on the damp ground.

The familiar touch brought the gray mouse some comfort.

What most creatures find utterly repulsive—a filthy environment—is a paradise for this gray rat.

The dirty water, carrying a lot of debris, flowed quietly in the waterway, its origin unknown.

With its long tail swaying behind it, the gray mouse took small steps to the water's edge and brought its head close to the surface.

It's unclear whether it was thirsty or hungry.

The foul-smelling, murky water reflected the gray rat's head.

And above that monster, which evokes a deep sense of unease and disgust at just a glance.

Upon spotting the image of the monster, the gray rat leaped up like a startled rabbit.

The genes ingrained in its biological instincts caused it to unleash power and speed far exceeding its usual limits at this moment.

Even if you saw a cat, it probably wouldn't be any different.

But the moment the gray rat jumped up, a whooshing sound rang out, followed by the sound of flesh being pierced.

'call out--'

'Pfft! '

The two voices sounded almost simultaneously.

To be precise, the object that made the first sound was moving too fast.

So much so that the two sounds, which should have been separate, seemed to be coming at the same time.

A long, pink strip of flesh, resembling the tongue of a chameleon or a frog, pierced through the gray rat's body at a speed too fast for the naked eye to perceive.

The life in the eyes of the gray rats hanging on it disappeared at a visible speed, and their short claws flailed wildly in the air.

Before it could even let out its dying howl, its long tongue contracted as swiftly as lightning.

It effortlessly swallowed the gray rat with its wide-open mouth.

In an instant, the gray rat disappeared into the dark sewer, with only traces of blood on the ground to prove its existence.

On the upper wall of the sewer, a bizarre creature that defies the limits of human senses is leisurely chewing on a gray rat.

It has a human-like body but an insect-like shell.

The ends of both arms are attached to a set of long fingers and extremely sharp black claws, the cold light emanating from them sending chills down one's spine with just a glance.

The long tail has a sharp, bony tip.

Its enormous head stretched all the way to its back.

Hanging upside down on the upper wall of the sewer like a gecko, this strange creature moved without making a sound.

The sharp claws easily dug into the cracks in the wall.

Raising its head to 'look' at the sewer outlet not far away, where faint rays of light shone, the monster seemed to be pondering something.

Its tail swayed gently behind it.

It's hard to imagine that such a monster could possess intelligence.

After thinking for a long time, the monster gave up the idea of ​​leaving.

Turning around, the monster slowly disappeared into the darkness.

In a certain film or television work, this group of monsters has a common name.

Its name is Alien.

At the boundary between light and darkness, several identical alien creatures could be vaguely seen crawling into the depths of darkness.

At this moment, at the research institute base on the outskirts of Chiba—

"Long time no see, Cupid."

Through the thick glass, Luo Zhen waved to the cute creatures inside the room.

Although he had a smile on his face, his eyes were full of indifference.

"Hello, it's been almost a month since we last met."

"Has something been going on lately?"

Kyubey, also wearing a faint smile, looked up at Rozen on the other side of the glass.

Luo Zhen didn't react to Kyubey's words and continued doing his own thing.

This is already the umpteenth Kyubey to have come into this world.

The moment it arrives in this world, it receives the memories left behind by the previous Kyubey.

But it still doesn't know much about this world.

After all, he had only been in this world for a short time before he was captured and locked up in this room.

In the memories of those Kyubeys, this human was a terrifying being.

Although it couldn't understand what terror was, the Kyubey clearly realized that its life was coming to an end when this man appeared.

As I've said many times before, Kyubey has no feelings.

Therefore, it has neither the joy of life nor the fear of death.

But even emotionless creatures don't want to be killed so meaninglessly.

It also wanted to try to seduce the man.

Even though those Kewpie had already tried.

"Young man, do you really not want to sign a contract with me?"

"With the karma you have, you can definitely become a very powerful magical girl."

"Wag your big, fluffy tail," Qiu Biru said.

As for why they still refer to boys as "magical girls"?

According to the consultations Kyubey received before coming into this world, many men often complain online, 'Why am I not a beautiful girl?!'

Many middle-aged men also use the virtual avatars of cute young girls to livestream online.

This truly opened Kewpie's eyes.

Even the incubators were shocked by this.

Before this Kyubey arrived, the Incubators were already considering whether they should keep up with the times and learn from virtual idols to contract magical girls.

After all, it looks really convenient.

"I am strong even without making a contract with you."

After changing his clothes, Luo Zhen entered the room, looking at Kyubey without a trace of sympathy in his eyes.
