Throne of Seals: Underworld Priest, Demon Nightmare

Chapter 24 Living with the girl group members? Cai'er: This is our home!
After dinner, the 10 newly formed demon-hunting teams, having rested for an afternoon, gathered in the main conference hall of the Exorcist Pass, led by their respective team leaders.

The ten demon-hunting teams sat in ten rows, with the leader of each team sitting at the front. Chu Zichen was in the first row, and Long Haochen was sitting next to him.

"Commander Chu, hello." Long Haochen greeted Chu Zichen first.

"Hello." Chu Zichen nodded in greeting.

Long Haochen greeted his sister Li Xin again, and then glanced at the group of female members behind Chu Zichen, feeling quite envious.

After all, he was surrounded by grown men.

Soon, the meeting began, and it was chaired by Cai'er's parents, Sheng Lingxin and Lan Yanyu.

Upon seeing Cai'er and Chu Zichen beside her, they all wore genuine smiles.

As expected, Cai'er and Zichen joined the same demon-hunting team.

Moreover, they were even more shocked when they heard that Chu Zichen had won the championship of this year's Demon Hunter Team selection competition.

The pastor winning the championship is truly an unprecedented event!

After a brief self-introduction, the Holy Spirit Heart returned to the main topic:

"The demon race's autumn offensive has begun again. Next, each of your demon-hunting groups will be divided into ten infantry battalions. Everyone will start as the most ordinary infantry soldier, fight bravely against the enemy, and earn merit points for three months."

"If any member of any of your teams dies, the Demon Hunter team will be automatically disbanded."

"So please remember that on the battlefield, the strength of an individual is always very small, and only by working together as a team can you defeat a strong enemy."

The meeting concluded, and soon 10 more infantry battalion commanders arrived, each leading a newly recruited demon hunter squad to report to the military camp.

Chu Zichen and his elite Demon Hunter Squad No. 1 were assigned to the First Infantry Battalion.

"I am Zhang Hairong, the battalion commander of the First Battalion. You are all elites of the alliance. It is my honor to have you join our First Battalion."

Zhang Hairong was a burly, rugged-looking fourth-tier warrior, and he was still a little unaccustomed to such polite words.

"Commander Zhang, you don't need to be so polite. The soldiers of Exorcising Demons Pass are all heroes who defend our country. It is our honor to be able to join the First Battalion."

Chu Zichen answered neither humbly nor arrogantly:
"Although we are not soldiers, I can assure you on behalf of our Sergeant-level Demon Hunter Squad No. 1 that we will fulfill our duties as soldiers, obey orders without question, and fight bravely against the enemy."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hairong couldn't help but break into a hearty smile:

"Good, good, good. Commander Chu is indeed a dragon among men. He is young but has an extraordinary demeanor. I am a rough man. From now on, I will temporarily ask you to serve as my personal guards. Your task is very simple: to fight alongside me."

"Yes!" Chu Zichen gave a military salute, and the others followed suit.

……

The infantry battalion was stationed not far from the east gate of the Exorcism Pass. After the report, Zhang Hairong assigned Chu Zichen and the others to a barracks where ten people shared a room.

The distinction between men and women does not apply in the military camp, so Chu Zichen had to live with the other five girls in the team, and not just for a day or two, but for a full three months.

Ugh... that's really a bit awkward!

Zhang Hairong also gave each of them a clean set of infantry uniforms and required them to wear them in action from now on.

"Commander Chu, we need to change clothes. You can go out now, and don't peek!"

Chen Ying'er shouted, hands on her hips.

"Alright, alright, hurry up."

Chu Zichen had no choice but to wait at the barracks entrance and quickly changed into his military uniform.

Although he couldn't see what was happening inside, his hearing was excellent, and the wooden doors of the barracks were poorly soundproofed, so he could hear everything they were saying clearly.

"Wow, Sister Li Xin, you have such a great figure! It's so big and perky, at least a D cup! I couldn't tell when you were wearing the armor! What did you eat to grow so big!"

This was Chen Ying'er's voice filled with envy. "Ahem... I didn't eat anything special, I just grew up naturally. Ying'er, you're still in your developmental stage, so there's no need to rush."

This was Li Xin's rather embarrassed voice.

"Sister Yuan Yuan, yours isn't small either, and you even wrapped it with bandages. Doesn't that hurt?"

Chen Ying'er has clearly shifted her target again.

"A little bit, but if it's not wrapped up like this, it will be a hindrance during combat."

Wang Yuanyuan, however, was not embarrassed and explained in a calm tone.

"If you don't want it, you could give me some!"

Chen Ying'er couldn't help but complain.

"Oh, Xuefei, it turns out you're the fiercest one! I can't even hold your hand with one hand!"

Chen Ying'er's voice rang out again not long after.

"Ah~~ Ying'er, don't touch me like that!"

Then came Li Xuefei's shy exclamation.

In the end, Chen Ying'er didn't dare to pick a fight with Cai'er.

Chu Zichen, who had overheard their private conversation at the door, was also speechless.

He really didn't mean to hear that!

After waiting at the door for a long time, the women finally changed into their military uniforms and opened the door.

These are all men's styles, and apart from Li Xin and Wang Yuanyuan, who are relatively tall, the other girls don't wear them at all.

Thanks to Chen Ying'er's hidden skill in needlework, she carried a sewing kit with her and simply cut up their military uniforms and re-sewed them back together, making them fit much better when worn again.

Next, the women chose and arranged their beds.

At this moment, Cai'er, who had been silent all along, casually dragged her own bed to the side of Chu Zichen's bed, and the two beds were thus joined together seamlessly.

"Hiss... This is too blatant!"

Although Wang Yuanyuan knew that Cai'er and Chu Zichen had a close relationship, she was still surprised that they would sleep together in front of them.
"Are we going to have a live performance tonight?"

Chen Ying'er couldn't help but have impure thoughts.

Li Xuefei and Li Xin exchanged glances, their expressions a mixture of shock and bewilderment.

But Cai'er didn't explain anything, nor did she care about their gazes.

Next, she directly divided the empty wooden bed into individual wooden strips, using them as a fence to enclose her and Chu Zichen's bed.

Finally, she divided the excess bedding into pieces of fabric to serve as airtight bed curtains, creating a completely private interior space.

Seeing this, the other four women also realized what was happening. Wang Yuanyuan and Chen Ying'er shared a bed, and Li Xuefei and Li Xin shared a bed, and they also set up a fully covered private space.

"Zichen, this is our home from now on."

After finishing everything, Cai'er returned to Chu Zichen's side, took his hand, and entered their private world.

"Hmm... Cai'er, I promise you, I will definitely give you a warm home in the future, a home that belongs to us."

Chu Zichen tightened his grip on Cai'er's hand, then pulled her into his arms, resting his chin lightly on the top of her head, his voice deep and firm.
