Dragon Clan gacha, start as the top player in Takamagahara

"Kid, is all you can do is hide behind a weak woman?" Yuan Zhisheng looked at Lin Ye and said with a cold sarcasm.

He didn't dare to take forceful action because he wasn't confident he could withstand Erii, and he was also worried about stimulating the girl's unstable dragon bloodline.

Lin Ye's lips twitched involuntarily.

You call Erii a weak woman? How can you describe your own sister like that? Doesn't your conscience hurt?! I, Lin Ye, am clearly a true man who dares to stand behind the dragon!

In short, Lin Ye could never confront Yuan Zhisheng head-on.

That's a joke. If a tortoise were to truly unleash its power, it would be suppressed and rendered powerless in no time.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have triggered a system task: Fight the opponent to a draw without Genji using any Words of Power. Reward: 200 points.]

Holy crap, here we go again!

Lin Ye couldn't help but complain.

Not long ago, the system issued a task that would give him 100 points for signing Erii's autograph. It was practically a freebie, but now it seems like he's been sent on a suicide mission!

Now the system is starting to make empty promises to Lin Ye again. Even if he manages to earn points, who knows if he'll live to spend them?

Although he had already integrated with the combat-type Himura Kenshin and mastered the various sword techniques of the Hiten Mitsurugi-ryu style, he was confident in dealing with ordinary A-rank hybrids who did not use incantations. However, the tortoise was a true S-rank, and possessed royal blood. Its various sword and saber techniques had almost reached the divine level. With such combat power, even if the tortoise did not use incantations, Lin Ye was not confident that he could go toe-to-toe with it.

[Ding! We have sensed that the host is about to refuse the mission. If the host refuses, a mandatory random punishment will be imposed.]

[Note: A true warrior should face the challenge head-on.]

Holy crap!

Lin Ye felt as if countless grasses and plants were churning in his mind.

"Friends, is there some misunderstanding? Why don't we sit down and talk it over? I, the humpback whale, will treat you all to drinks, okay?"

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the store manager, a humpback whale, quickly stepped forward.

To be able to establish himself in Shinjuku and become the manager of this host club, Humpback Whale must have some ability; at least he's quite good at judging people. (Except for Lin Ye.)

The humpback whale sensed an extremely terrifying aura emanating from Genjiro, an aura that could only be cultivated through actual killing. In particular, the recent slash confirmed the humpback whale's suspicions.

Genjiro is very strong!

If the other party were to take a strong stance, Lin Ye would have no chance of surviving. So he stepped in to smooth things over and see if he could resolve the current crisis.

But as soon as the humpback whale finished speaking, Genjiro glanced at it coldly.

The humpback whale instantly felt as if it were surrounded by a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, with countless ferocious creatures like demons howling in the blood sea, which churned violently as if it were about to swallow the humpback whale whole.

The man immediately took a step back, his face filled with fear.

Immediately afterwards, his shoulder was pressed down by the Yaksha beside him.

The crow standing nearby sneered, "It's all underworld business, sir. I advise you to mind your own business, or you might find yourself drowned at sea one day without even knowing it."

The humpback whale turned pale, barely recovering from the shock it had just experienced.

He now deeply regrets it. If he hadn't arranged for Erii to go behind the scenes, the girl wouldn't have had direct contact with Lin Ye, and thus this confrontation wouldn't have happened.

The humpback whale realized that its older brother, Genjiro, was after his younger sister, Erii.

He had noticed Erii's extraordinary demeanor and generous nature back then, and in order to keep Kenshin, he gave him a check for a million dollars. Now, Erii's brother, who is suspected to be a yakuza boss, has come to his door with his men, determined to wash away this humiliation.

The more this hypothesis was proven, the more daunted the humpback whale became. In the end, he even took a step forward.

Even the strong and powerful Yaksha couldn't hold him down.

"Sir, I am the manager of this shop. Whether they are my customers or my partners, I have the responsibility and obligation to protect them. If you insist on damaging this place and harming the people here, then you will have to get past me first."

The humpback whale looked at Genjiro and spoke solemnly.

His voice was neither humble nor arrogant, but firm and resolute, and everyone present could feel the determination in the man's heart.

Even if he dies here today, he, the humpback whale, will protect everything in Takamagahara, especially Lin Ye, because the latter is not only his partner, but also his hope for pursuing the ultimate male-style flower arrangement!

“Interesting.” Genjiro sneered.

A bone-chilling cold emanated from him, as if he would strike with his ancient sword at any moment. Then, the head of the shopkeeper's humpback whale flew into the air, eliciting screams.

Just as the tension was building, a soft laugh suddenly rang out.

"Manager, you have always taught us that no matter how outrageous the customer's demands are, once they enter the gates of Takamagahara, they are people we should serve with the utmost care. This is the way of hospitality in Takamagahara, and it is also the way of pursuing the ultimate in flower arrangement!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lin Ye walk out from behind Erii, then stand upright and openly in front of Genjiro, "Excuse me, are you also here to ask for my autograph?"

"A signature?" Yuan Zhisheng frowned slightly.

"That's right, an autograph."

As he spoke, Lin Ye raised his right hand and held up the fountain pen in his hand.

Chapter 6 Why Not! [Please add to your favorites! Please vote!]

sign?

Yuan Zhisheng was slightly taken aback.

He looked at the pen in Lin Ye's hand, and then, recalling the latter's previous ambiguous actions, he suddenly realized what was going on.

It turned out that the other party had no intention of doing anything improper, but rather wanted to get Erii's autograph.

No, even if it's a signature, why would you sign your name in that sensitive area?

How dare this gigolo!

Yuan Zhisheng's emotions, which had just calmed down, surged up again.

The atmosphere instantly became chilling and tense, and the entire audience was filled with trepidation.

Seeing that things were not going well, Lin Ye forced himself to remain calm and looked at Yuan Zhisheng with a forced bitter smile.

"If you're here for an autograph, I'd be happy to oblige. But let me make it clear beforehand: an autograph is fine, whether it's on a poster or in a notebook, but please don't do what this girl is asking for, like signing in such a strange place as her lapel."

After speaking, she glanced at Erii beside her, her expression full of 'helplessness'.

"You said Erii requested the location for the signature?" Genji frowned.

"Otherwise what?" Lin Ye shrugged, feigning nonchalance.

What he just said was a cleverly worded statement with multiple layers of meaning.

First, address Erii as a girl to indicate that you are not really familiar with her, thus creating distance between you.

The second point mentions the location of the signature, indicating that it wasn't Lin Ye who insisted on signing on Erii's lapel, but rather Erii who took the initiative to do so.

Third, Lin Ye also subtly indicated that although he was a male escort, his character was impeccable, and even his signature was always proper and he would never act recklessly.

When these people barged in, Lin Ye glanced around and saw that besides the leader, Genjiro, there were quite a few ruthless people, including Crow Yaksha and even Sakura. These guys were all ruthless, and if they were mistaken for ganging up on him, Lin Ye would definitely be riddled with bullets.

So at this point, it's best to say everything you can. Although these guys are all gangsters, especially gangster bosses like Genjiro, they still have some sense of morality.

Whether they can ultimately listen to what they've heard is up to them.

Upon hearing Lin Ye's 'confession', Genji couldn't help but look at Erii.

"Yes, yes, brother, it was Erii who asked for it."

The latter nodded quickly and showed the words on the small notebook to Yuan Zhisheng.

Then Erii tugged at Lin Ye's sleeve and pointed to her chest, her face full of anticipation, as if she wanted him to continue signing in front of her.

Genjiro's veins bulged as he watched, and even the crow-yaksha beside him twitched at the corner of his mouth.

This matter, which started with a misunderstanding, seems to have been resolved, but it also seems to have become more serious.

Crow and the others had a strong feeling that their leader was losing his sister, because her heart was completely devoted to this gigolo named Lin Ye.

"Eri, come home with me first."

Genji reached out his hand to Erii.

As for Lin Ye, he'll settle things with Erii after he's appeased her.

However, Erii took a step back at that moment and shook her head at Genjiro.

"Are you not even listening to me anymore?" Genjiro's face darkened.

"Brother, that's not how it is."

Erii stood there, conflicted. She wrote in her notebook, "Tonight is Kenshin's solo show, and I need to stay and support him."

The girl looked serious, as if Lin Ye's so-called personal show wasn't about whether she could become a formal gigolo, but a life-or-death battle concerning her fate.

Suppressing his rising anger, Genji said in a low voice, "Eri, look carefully. This boy is a male escort, a clown who only knows how to use tricks to seduce innocent women."

The man made no attempt to conceal his true feelings; he simply uttered them coldly.

The humpback whale clenched its fists involuntarily, as if it had been deeply insulted.

Even Lin Ye frowned.

Surprisingly, Erii was the first to reject the idea, solemnly writing in her notebook:

“Brother, Kenshin is not a clown. He is a swordsman destined to usher in a new era. You’d better not provoke him, or you’ll suffer the consequences.”

Um? ! !

When Genji saw Erii holding up this line of text to him with a solemn expression, he almost got so angry that his mouth twisted into a crook.

What the heck is this swordsman who ushers in a new era?

A male escort who ushers in a new era?

And what does it mean to say 'Don't provoke him, or you'll suffer the consequences'? Does it mean that he, as the older brother, is so weak in his own sister's eyes, or that Erii thinks too highly of this male host?

Lin Ye, who was standing to the side, also saw the words in Erii's notebook, and his eyes twitched a few times.

He cried out in his heart: Erii, Erii, how could I, Lin Ye, be worthy of your high regard? The key is, don't you realize that you are fanning the flames?! I'm about to get burned!

Erii, of course, did not realize this. She was not only 'protecting' her brother, but also vindicating Kenshin. In the girl's heart, Kenshin was a light that pierced through the darkness. Since that experience, she could never forget this affectionate boy.

Erii didn't know what a male escort was, but she knew Kenshin. The moment this boy appeared, her world was also bathed in light.

Erii's earnest expression also deeply moved Genjiro.

He got it!

If he could defeat this host in front of Erii, wouldn't that mean he could expose the ridiculous pretense of this peerless swordsman?
