Chapter 399 – Your Chest is Hurting Me

When Claire hugged Lin Xiao’s waist, her mind was a mess.

That feeling was very mysterious, the night was calm yet she experienced an unimaginable calamity. Now that’s come to an end, it didn’t really feel real.

They were close to completing the rescue mission and were suddenly warned that the living dead army was approaching and that they had to run. She wasn’t willing to give up and was adamant about staying but was beat by that disgusting Andrew and almost lost her chastity… Fortunately, Lin Xiao helped her, but to her dismay, she realized he also wanted to dirty her, so now with Andrew chased away, she fell into Lin Xiao’s hands.

This night was truly torturous, to the point where Claire felt like she was having a nightmare. She ignored the explosions and screams while hugging Lin Xiao and lost herself in her thoughts…

His body wasn’t strong, and he didn’t have much muscle, but when she hugged him, it felt reliable and reassuring.

As she pressed her face against his back, she could feel his body temperature and smell the faint scent of sweat. It felt like she was hugging someone close to her, and it felt like all the panic and pressure were nothing to be feared. Claire had only felt something like this when she was hugged her father when she was younger.

How would she be treated by Lin Xiao now? Claire didn’t know. She didn’t know a lot of things, she didn’t know that she was a woman that wasn’t worried about losing her purity, she also didn’t know that she would show her weak side and that she would come to depend on a man.

Yes, this night was dangerous and exciting, painful and new, no matter how much adversity she faces, at least there was something good…

Hugging Lin Xiao felt really comfortable, so no matter how she was going to be treated, it didn’t feel as scary anymore.

Is she going to be trained into an obedient maid? Or stripped and suspended from a tree? It doesn’t matter, after experiencing all that, she won’t complain anymore. No matter how Lin Xiao would ravage her, she would accept it all.

“Although I told you to hug me, why are you getting hooked on it… hey, Claire? Are you asleep?”

She could hear Lin Xiao’s voice as well as strange explosions and creeping wailing sounds.

“No…”

Claire shut her eyes and continued to hug him. Right now it was as if she sealed all her senses other than Lin Xiao’s voice and his scent and she ignored everything else, can’t see, can’t hear, can’t think.

“That’s weird, why did the violent tomboy suddenly become an obedient bunny… did I go too overboard and scare her stupid?”

Boom! Another loud explosion, Lin Xiao spoke while quickly taking two steps to the side as if he was avoiding something, and Claire still hung onto him like a pendant and followed him however he moved.

It was strange, with an additional burden, Lin Xiao’s movements should be more affected, but it was the opposite. Perhaps Claire was cooperating with him intentionally, but every time he moved, Claire made the same movements, not any faster or slower, they were perfectly in sync like a loving couple.

“I wasn’t scared stupid, and I’m not afraid.” Claire calmly responded.

“Really?”

“Really, because I figured it out.” Claire paused and continue matching Lin Xiao’s pace while seriously responding, “There’s nothing more important than living, I was too foolish and forced Andrew and the others to give up their lives with me, so I deserved that treatment, it’s the same with you… I shouldn’t have forced you guys.”

“Hey, that doesn’t sound like the kind of stuff the leopard queen would say.”

“Is that not the case? Although you’re strong, I know that you’re actually not willing to come take the risk, right?”

“Uh, well you’re right about that, if I could just stay at home, like hell I would come out and fight monsters.”

“As expected, the reason you wanted to bully me was partly due to retaliation, it must have been the same for Andrew… if I didn’t force you guys, you wouldn’t have humiliated me, it was me reaping what I had sown.”

“That sounds reasonable… but the victim sympathizing with the perpetrator, that doesn’t make sense, right?”

“Do you not think so?”

“Me? Of course not. Rather than seeing you act so weak, I would prefer you to yell at me, or bite me, that’s your style.”

“Being bitten by a woman… is that one of the various plays you like?”

Claire was extremely serious when she said that, which made Lin Xiao suspect that if he responded with yes, then she would obediently bite him to satisfy his perverted desires.

It’s over, it’s all over, this woman was broken. Lin Xiao really felt the heaviness of his sins.

“Cough… I say Claire, if you have the time to be sad, I would rather you tell me all the information you have.”

“Information?”

“Didn’t Andrew tell you about everything he investigated? So you should know where those living dead are coming from right?”

She heard a snap and then followed by another annoying explosion sound. Finally, Claire came back to her sense and opened her eyes, and was instantly shocked!

She was definitely dreaming… while she was lost in thought, how many unbelievable strange things happened?

“Lin Xiao, d-did you do all of this?”

There were corpses everywhere she could see!

Tens, hundred… no already too many to count, the surrounding corpses were already piled high into mountains, and Lin Xiao and her were trapped in the center of that.

“No shit, who else could it be?”

Lin Xiao casually tossed some magic and a thick earth wall tens of meters tall rose in front of him, the force exhibited as the earth wall was formed sent all those corpses flying then it collapsed again into a pile of dirt.

“Phew, that’s better.”

Lin Xiao clapped his hands together as he looked at the cleared area while Claire focused on something completely different.

“Hey, what are you doing? Why did you send those corpses flying? Now those things can get in!”

Claire felt her scalp tingle as she pointed to the monsters that were slowly approaching them.

Living dead, though she may have heard about them from Andrew, it was still terrifying to see.

Those monsters were humans, but they were long dead and their bodies were covered in festering wounds and emanating a blackish-purple aura. They walked in a strange manner while making a creepy hissing sound with their mouths at times. Even though they were dead, they still looked alive, hence why Andrew called them the living dead.

Actually, a single living dead wasn’t that scary, they just looked disgusting, the problem was… there was an army of the living dead!

There were already mounds of corpses that Lin Xiao piled up, but the ones coming towards them were numerous to count, who knows how many more there were in the darkness. The living dead army was like the boundless sea, and they were like a lone boat that desperately tried to resist the waves.

“Uh, that’s what I want… just tell me about your information.”

“Andrew said that this wasn’t just a plague, it’s a scheme! Those living dead aren’t monsters, they were residents of the plague zone, they… they’re the people of Gotham Kingdom!”

“Oh, so that explains why we didn’t see any corpses and the strange symptoms and how it spreads… what the hell are those enlightened doing, did they play too much resident evil?”

Unlike Claire’s indignation and alarm, Lin Xiao was still unmotivated as usual. He lazily yawned while casting magic that he couldn’t even remember the names of.

“Sigh, it seems like it’s going to be another all-nighter… Elena, you can hear me right, you better remember to make it up to me after we get back.”

Lin Xiao snapped again and went even further this time, using the earth wall all around him to send all the piled corpses flying and cleared the entire area around them.

At the same time, the living dead army could finally flood them from all directions like a tidal wave.

“Are you crazy! Why are you letting them come?”

Claire was frightened and desperately clung to Lin Xiao.

“Hey, tomboy! Don’t use so much strength… your chest is hurting me!”

“Eh? S-sorry… but I wasn’t even using that much strength.”

“Sigh, this is why I hate flat-chested people, you can’t even give any warmth, and it’s as hard as a washboard!”

“Tsk, it’s not like I wanted it to be flat, I can’t help the fact that I never grew… no, no, now isn’t the time to worry about the size of my chest, is it! Now that we’re surrounded, how do we escape?”

“Why do we have to escape?”

“Hah? If we don’t escape, are we just going to wait here to die?”

“Hehe, don’t worry, no matter how many of these small fry there are, it wouldn’t be enough… and if I’m right, then they won’t be attacking us anymore in a bit.”

With a casual fling of his hands, they were surrounded by a sea of flames that burned all the living dead to charcoal.

“Oh? Fire magic is better, I can kill them and take care of the corpses in one go.”

“Hey!!!”

Everything in front of her was outside of her cognitive scope, so Claire couldn’t think calmly anymore.

‘They won’t be attacking us anymore in a bit’, what basis did Lin Xiao have for saying something like that?
