Dragon Clan gacha, start as the top player in Takamagahara

Suddenly, Tachibana Masamune flew into a rage like a demon and violently tore the photograph to shreds.

They even stomped on Lin Ye's portrait on the ground.

Until the very end, with those hideous, demonic eyes fixed on Lin Ye's shattered portrait, no one knew what this demon was planning.

Rumble!

A thunderclap echoed deep within the clouds, signaling the imminent downpour.

Chapter 44 Erii Wants to Be With Us...

"Eri, my attack will only work if you can make it stand up."

"Ugh~"

"It's crucial time to sprint!"

"Ugh~"

……

Inside the white, isolated room, Lin Ye and Erii were locked in a fierce battle on the bed.

The two men each held a game controller, manipulating their in-game characters in constant battles; they were clearly playing Street Fighter.

Lin Ye controlled the muscular man, Ryu, while Erii chose Chun-Li, who had a pair of pigtails and an exceptionally strong physique.

Under Erii's control, Chun-Li swung her long legs and launched continuous attacks on Ryu.

Under Lin Ye's control, Long reacted very nimbly, dodging all the attacks and giving Chun Li no chance at all.

Chun-Li changed her strategy, leaping into the air and aiming her middle leg at Ryu's head. Ryu dodged with a roll and then unleashed a powerful energy wave. The whole sequence of movements was fluid and seamless. Chun-Li reacted just as quickly, stepping on Ryu with her toes and delivering a powerful kick to his head.

Seeing this, Lin Ye's lips curled up slightly. With a howl, he quickly controlled Long to unleash a Rising Dragon Fist. Chun-Li was hit and lost a large portion of her health.

Long, seizing the advantage, pressed forward relentlessly.

Erii's Chun-Li was in a very passive position, but this was actually an opportunity. Although Chun-Li's health bar was depleted, her rage bar was almost full, which was the key gauge to unleash her ultimate move.

On the other hand, although Ryu made great strides, his rage gauge was constantly being depleted due to his repeated outbursts. If Chun-Li could eventually corner Ryu in the game's ring, deliver a powerful kick followed by an EX Hundred-Crack Kick, and then finish him off with her ultimate move, Fan Hua, she could completely knock him out and end the match.

Erii's idea was good, but Lin Ye seemed to have anticipated this. Under his control, Ryu not only stopped retreating, but also launched another attack as his anger continued to deplete.

However, Erii was not discouraged. She quickly changed her strategy, using light kicks to catch heavy punches, and then Thousand-Crack Kick to wear down Ryu's health bar. The advantage of this combo is that Chun-Li can quickly rush into the opponent and has very few openings. If used well, it is almost impossible for the opponent to counter it.

Visually, under the barrage of attacks from Erii's Chun-Li, Ryu's health was visibly reduced at a rapid pace. However, because he was being attacked the whole time, Ryu's rage gauge, which had been mostly depleted, was about to be full. Therefore, Lin Ye was not worried at all, and his ultimate move was already being prepared.

Erii noticed it too.

She manipulated Chun-Li to leap high into the air, intending to use her middle leg to strike Ryu's head, luring him into unleashing another Shoryuken. After all, the Shoryuken could counter such aerial techniques. Moreover, Erii had her own ulterior motives. When she manipulated Chun-Li to leap and attack, Chun-Li's body left a little distance, so even if Ryu launched a Shoryuken, it was unlikely to hit Chun-Li directly.

This actually created an opportunity for her. As long as Chun-Li landed before Ryu, according to the calculation, Ryu would be forced to the corner of the ring at that moment. In this way, Erii could finish the match at any time by following up with her previous fierce combo.

It can be said that in just one match, the two players demonstrated their micro-management and overall strategic awareness to the fullest, proving themselves to be true Street Fighter masters.

On the game screen, Chun-Li then leaps up to attack, and Ryu rolls to the corner of the screen.

Erii's cherry-red lips couldn't help but curve into a smile, and her beautiful eyes couldn't hide her excitement. She felt that this was the closest she had ever been to victory.

But before the girl's smugness could fully unfold, Chun-Li was met with an extremely powerful Destroyer Hadouken.

This is an extremely powerful finishing move, and also the strongest burst of power that Ryu has been secretly building up.

On the screen, a burst of intense light erupted, completely engulfing Chun-Li's figure. The health bar next to her game avatar, which had been half full, was instantly emptied, vividly demonstrating the disappearance of a health bar.

KO! Long won!

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the mission of winning the match against Erii. You are hereby rewarded with 200 points.]

With the victory in this game, Lin Ye received the system's points reward in his mind.

Lin Ye's lips twitched involuntarily.

It is said that he almost lost his life in the sword fight with the giant tortoise in Takamagahara, and in the end he only got 500 points. However, he was rewarded with 200 points for playing a game with Erii. Is this a disguised way of defeating the little monster?

"Lin Ye, you're amazing."

Although she lost the match, Erii showed no disappointment. Instead, she leaned over and stared at Lin Ye with an adoring look, her jewel-like eyes blinking.

Lin Ye felt a little embarrassed by the stare, scratched his head, and chuckled dryly, "Oh dear, I was just lucky. Erii is the real expert. My Ryu almost got kicked to death by your Chun-Li."

He was telling the truth. Erii's Street Fighter skills were definitely top-tier. If Lin Ye hadn't also loved playing Street Fighter in his previous life, he definitely wouldn't have been a match for Erii.

"Lin Ye, why don't we go take a shower together?"

Erii suddenly handed the small notebook she had written in to Lin Ye.

The latter subconsciously responded, "Okay... Ah?!"

Lin Ye was caught off guard when he finally saw the sentence on the notebook.

Why are we suddenly going to be all honest with each other when we were just chatting enthusiastically about the game?

Seeing Erii's warm hospitality, Lin Ye felt that life was somewhat illusory and unpredictable.

"Lin Ye, do you want to go together now?" Erii blinked, looking very expectant.

"Eri, you, you go wash up first, I'll wait a while."

"But Erii will feel lonely washing clothes by herself."

"Ah this..."

Lin Ye was dumbfounded.

Although he could sense that Erii really wanted to be with him, the girl's desire to confide in him wasn't the kind of romantic feeling one might have between a man and a woman.

Erii feels lonely, which means she genuinely feels lonely when bathing alone, rather than deliberately trying to provoke anyone. That's why the girl always puts a little yellow duck in the bathtub when she takes a bath.

Oh, and the little yellow duck!

"Eri, didn't I give you a little yellow duck before? You can treat it as me when you take a bath. Seeing the little yellow duck is like seeing the real me. I will always be with you."

Lin Ye chuckled and rubbed his hands together, marveling at his own cleverness.

"Well."

Erii's beautiful eyes lit up as she remembered the little yellow duck that Lin Ye had given her earlier.

She bent down and rummaged through the pockets of her shrine maiden outfit, and soon pulled out the little yellow duck with a delighted expression.

"Hehe, Lin Ye, I'm going to wash up now, you have to hurry up..."

Erii placed the little yellow duck on her head and ran into the bathroom.

"Okay... Pfft!"

Lin Ye looked up and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the girl's fair and beautiful back.

He immediately covered his nose with his hand to prevent himself from bleeding profusely.

Chapter 46 Running Away from Home: Operation Chidorigafuchi

[The previous chapter has already been released; you can read it by clicking on the table of contents. This time, the editor dug it out for me, boohoo, the editor still loves me!]

The torrential rain has been going on in Tokyo for more than a week, with only a few moments of clear skies.

The news was showing a beautiful scene: because of the excessive rainy season, the cherry blossoms in Chidorigafuchi were blooming more brilliantly than ever before, with petals falling like pink snow.

The camera followed the drone's movement, and from above, the entire Chidorigafuchi resembled a thousand-feathered bird made up of millions of cherry blossoms. This resemblance is the origin of Chidorigafuchi's name as a famous cherry blossom viewing spot in Japan.

The cherry blossom path, stretching over 400 meters, forms the moat of the Imperial Palace of Japan. The ancient cherry trees along the riverbank were planted here in 1941. Every year when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, as many as 800 Yoshino cherry trees and mountain cherry trees line the path, attracting many tourists.

The most eye-catching event is the Night Cherry Blossom Feast.

As night falls, the vast expanse of pink cherry blossoms, illuminated by fluorescent lights, is incredibly beautiful, blending seamlessly with their reflections on the lake, creating a hazy, dreamlike atmosphere that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy.

In the footage, although it wasn't night yet, many people could already be seen carrying cameras in Chidorigafuchi searching for the best filming locations. Some people were even carrying generators and running past the camera, clearly ready to keep the generator running at any time, waiting for nightfall so that thousands of cherry blossoms could burst into dazzling beauty in the fluorescent light, and then preserve this beautiful and splendid scene.

"So beautiful~"

Erii looked at Chidorigafuchi on the LCD screen, her beautiful eyes sparkling with anticipation, as if a cherry blossom snow had fallen.

"Lin Ye, let's go to Thousand Bird Abyss."

Erii suddenly wrote something in her notebook.

"To Chidorigafuchi?"

"Hmm, let's go to Chidorigafuchi, right now."

Erii's head bobbed up and down like a chick pecking at rice, showing her eagerness.

"This one……"

To be honest, Lin Ye was also somewhat tempted.

He has been staying at Genji Heavy Industries for almost half a month, and during this time he has been staying in Erii's room.

He still hasn't forgotten the scene where Erii was extremely unwilling to let him go elsewhere for treatment. At that time, Genji gritted his teeth and told himself that he must take good care of his body and strive to recover as soon as possible. Lin Ye felt that even if you threw a diamond into the mouth of the giant tortoise, it would bite it to pieces.

Lin Ye had a strange, ominous feeling that when he finally recovered and left, he might be taken away by the crow demon and sunk into the sea as soon as he stepped out the door.

Ultimately, it's still a matter of insufficient strength.

Lin Ye currently has less than 1,000 points. He plans to accumulate 2,000 points before making a big draw. Anyway, there's a guaranteed draw. As long as he can gather 2,000 points, the character card he draws will definitely be stronger than Kenshin Himura.

Although Kenshin Himura is already a top-tier swordsman, that's only relative. Even if the speed of the Heavenly Dragon Flash is fast, it is still far from being able to match the speed of the Incantation's full-scale burst. If an A-rank hybrid were to bombard him with Incantations right away, Lin Ye wouldn't even have a chance to react. Even a B-rank hybrid could seriously injure him.

Therefore, the most urgent task now is to enhance our strength.

If Genjiro were to lose his temper one day and kill him with a single blow, honestly, Lin Ye would be left with nothing but helpless eyes.

This wasn't Lin Ye making a mountain out of a molehill, but rather Erii was going too far.

Originally, Yuan Zhisheng was very unhappy with him and specially arranged an extra bed for him in the secret room. However, every night, Lin Ye would feel something soft rubbing against him and snuggling into his arms.
