No Otaku with Harem System

Chapter 33: I'm a Third-Grade Villain

(Perspective Chika Kisaragi )

This is bad, things have turned into complete chaos and I don't know what to do. Today has been a horrible day that goes from bad to worse.

First I had to help the boy I like so that he could confess to another girl. Haruki Amamiya, my foolish companion who is too dense to notice my feelings, or maybe he's so in love with Satsuki that he can't see it.

Our group of friends seem to know my feelings, but he still arranged things so that Haruki and Satsuki could meet at the sports warehouse, I don't blame them since I helped this myself.

After locking them up, we thought we would look for them later, I had to put up with the urge to cry, which was not difficult since I don't usually show many emotions.

As I tried not to think about Haruki, disaster struck. It all started with a statement on the loudspeakers, the shouts for help from the announcer made me scared and when I saw what was happening I felt terrified.

As if it were a horror movie people went crazy, in a matter of minutes the peaceful school turned into hell.

I had to be strong, I couldn't show weakness as my friends and colleagues trust me. Most of my classmates consider me an older sister so it is my responsibility to protect them, even if I am scared and want someone to protect me I must be strong.

I felt worried about Haruki in the warehouse, but there was nothing I could do to help him, I could barely protect myself.

Many of my colleagues died, I felt guilty for not being able to protect them.

With a lot of effort, we managed to escape to a safe room where we found some third-year students who helped us to block the door.

I wanted to barricade with tables and chairs, but the group leader refused as this would prevent other surviving students from entering.

I think we should first secure our own lives, but I didn't say anything as I didn't want to abandon other students either.

Honestly, I am scared, the worst thing is that I cannot show how fragile I feel since I am one of the pillars of my friends.

As I struggled to calm my nerves, a horrible scream made me turn to the window.

"HELP AAAHHHHH!" - One of my companions was screaming in horror while one of the zombies entered through the window and tore her abdomen.

She fell to the ground while the zombie looked at us before yelling and jumping at another student.

"GWAAAAHHHHHHHH!"

"Stop, don't come near NOOOOOOOO!"

"HELP SAVE ME!"

"GWAAAHHHH!"

The hall fell into chaos. That thing was different from the other zombies, those who are infected can be strong but they are slow and have terrible reflexes so you can fight them.

This zombie was different.

He is fast, he does not get distracted by devouring corpses, he attacks students one by one and his claws can tear the flesh in a scratch, this thing is a killing machine.

I have to protect my friends even if I am scared. I grabbed a broomstick that I have been using as a weapon and ran to confront the monster before he kills another of my friends. - "Aaaahhh!" - I let out a scream to face my own fear and attacked.

The zombie evaded my blow and tried to rip my neck apart.

This is it, I can't help it.

I am afraid, I don't want to die.

I could see my life go by in front of my eyes and I didn't like it, there are many things I want to experience, I want to fall in love, I want to know how it feels to have a date, I want to laugh with my friends, there are so many things I want to do.

Someone ... Please ... Save me ...

"GWAAAAHHH!"

"Get away from her, damn monster!"

I had closed my eyes out of fear, I only opened them when I felt no pain. Instead of seeing the claws of the zombie tearing at me, I could see the creature against the wall while a fire ax was stuck in his chest.

A guy dressed in sports clothes passed by me, I did not realize when the living room door opened since I was too scared but now that I see the surroundings my colleagues are near the door, apparently, they were so scared that they wanted to escape while I was facing the zombie.

"Fuck you!" - The guy put his foot on the zombie's stomach, forcefully pulled the ax from the zombie's chest, and with a quick movement cut off the zombie's head.

The boy walked towards me. From the way, he killed the zombie I can see that he is strong, too strong.

In a normal situation, someone with that strength would make me be cautious since all kinds of idiots have approached me due to my appearance, but this situation is not normal and I am grateful for having saved me.

The boy looked at my body however it was not a look of lust and instead he looked concerned.

"You got hurt?" - The guy's voice was filled with concern and care that he had never experienced.

My parents were never at home so I learned to take care of myself, with my friends I am always the one who takes care of them so no one had put themselves in front of me to protect me.

Although I can deal with most problems on my own, there are times when I wish someone would extend a hand to me.

The guy seemed concerned that I was not responding so he bent down. - "Now everything is fine" - The guy lightly patted my head while he smiled kindly.

I couldn't take it anymore, the fear of almost dying and the relief of seeing that I'm alive made my invincible female facade shatter.

Without being able to control my tears I began to cry, never in my life had I cried so much

"You're safe now" - The guy hugged me to comfort me, making me cry louder.

I have never experienced this warmth, I feel calm and safe, for the first time I feel that I do not have to carry all the problems in the world.

I don't even know this person's name, but the warmth in his words makes me feel safe.

"Thank you ... thank you for saving me ... thank you ..." - I kept muttering while I cried.

The boy just kept hugging me, making me feel safe. I like this feeling.

--- (Luis Santos Perspective) ---

It's nice when things go well.

With Navi's supervision, I was able to time things perfectly to achieve my main target, the girl with white hair and big breasts.

It was a shame that a couple of pretty girls died, it was a necessary sacrifice. There were also a couple of male students with potential, but now they are corpses.

The greatest loss is a strong subject who had the qualities to be a leader, he is not dead but his injuries will make him a burden.

Something interesting is that mutants do not seem to spread the virus and only the common infected can do it, or maybe the mutants are also infectious but the infection takes time to react. It may also be because the Hunter only scratched and did not bite them, I need to do experiments.

I'm using Ki pulses with Rasen to check on the Hunter-wounded students and so far none showed decreased neural activity in the areas that control rationality and impulse control.

I'll keep an eye on them as it would be troublesome if they all became Hunters.

My paranoia aside, I'm fighting the urge to vomit due to disgust I feel at myself for acting like a comic book hero.

I can't even curse like I would like since I want to look like a civilized person, how annoying.

Even though my self-loathing continues to grow, the fact that the pretty girl in my arms hugs me ever tighter makes me see how easy it will be to pick up women in this kind of apocalyptic world.

I just have to push them into deadly situations where their hearts break in despair and they're willing to do anything to stay alive… Great, I already sound like a fucking villain.

For now, I am focusing on comforting this girl as she carried her as a princess to bring the survivors with Shizuka and Saeko. I cleared most of the infected so there is no danger on the way to the classroom with Shizuka anymore.

Although I could show off to win over the other students, my focus is on the white-haired girl.

Although I can identify some characteristics of the protagonists this only applies to impulsive idiots like Kenichi or Takashi, other protagonists could be discreet so I have to look carefully.

The real problem is identifying all the heroines. A protagonist can have more than one heroine who will have a certain connection with the protagonist if I want to conquer them I must not break those connections, and instead, I must create a stronger connection of my own or the plot armor will see me as an enemy.

I'm sure Takashi is one of the protagonists, I checked when I let an infected attack Takashi's back while he was distracted.

Takashi stumbled with the air which helped him dodge the infected and then finish him off, this happened 5 times what is only possible with plot armor.

Rei is the main heroine candidate due to Takashi's feelings but who knows if the plot wants Takashi to be with another woman or if it is a harem.

From what I have seen in this world there is no shortage of strong women, so it would not be strange if there were several powerful heroines that can only be conquered by the protagonist, thus forming a harem.

The girl in my arms can be one of the heroines. As this group escaped down the hall before reaching the classroom, Navi saw an infected almost bite the girl and was only saved from her because the infected slipped with a pool of blood.

Of course, it could also be a coincidence, but even if she is not a heroine she is still my main objective of this group since not only is she beautiful, her character seems suitable to lead a group which will help me to direct other survivors to form my kingdom.

The only problem is that I did not take into consideration that this world can be too stressful due to the appearance of mutants with superhuman strength.

Most of the people who saw a stronger than normal infected showed symptoms of PTSD.

The most serious were Midori, Rei, 3 of the teachers Saeko had protected, and a couple of students from group 2.

If I don't handle them well they could go mad with despair before I can make them mine which will be a disaster.

Only Saeko, Shizuka, and the teacher named Nao seem to endure the stress. Saeko has the mental strength of a warrior while Shizuka and Nao are airheads whose minds don't process danger.

I worry about the sanity of those two at the same time that I like them.

The white-haired girl in my arms seems good at handling pressure, her problem is that she carries too great a responsibility due to a stupid martyr complex.

If I can show her that I am willing to take on her problems then it will not be difficult to make her fall in love, I just have to pay attention to the person with whom she is in love.

Thanks to my experience with women, I have learned to identify a woman in love since many times I have had to distance myself from women who were beginning to fall in love with me.

Before getting the system, he was not willing to form any kind of relationship that exceeded casual encounters.

Now that I think about it, I might look for some of those women when I go back to my homeworld. I'll keep it in mind.

I think I have changed with these trips to other worlds, if I were my previous self I would not care about the mental health of these women and I would only seek to sleep with them and then leave unless they could give me some benefit.

Now I am not only trying to think of a method to help them, I even have the desire to create a safe space for those women who start to like me like Shizuka, Chizuru, and Saeko.

This change started when I realized that I starting fell in love with Shigure, is love softening me?

This is troublesome, I'll have to do something really horrible to remind myself that I can't be influenced by feelings.

Feelings lead to mistakes and mistakes can end in death, in the end, it is rationality that allows survival, and the most rational are the benefits.

I'm trying not to be a sentimental jerk but here I am, hugging a crying girl while also patting Shizuka for good work treating the wounds of the 3 injured students who survived the Hunter attack.

Shizuka may be an airhead but her medical skills are only slightly inferior to Akisame and Kensei which is impressive since those two are at the level of world-renowned surgeons. I definitely have to get Shizuka.

For now, I had to leave the women again as there is a problem. Group 1 is stronger than I estimated and they have cleared a third of the first floor, I can't let them be the heroes of this shit so it's time to screw things up.

Yeah, this is just the kind of shit I need to remind myself of how trashy I am.

If I'm going to be a pathetic villain then I'm going to do it big.
