In a crossover anime, the only way to become stronger is by marrying a wife.

"The food is ready," said Kaori Orimoto.

Their tone was naturally one of resentment.

Tsukikawa Shu had just finished eating her lamb chops and discarded the bones when she walked over quietly to check on the two of them.

"Can we have our food now?" Chika Nakamachi asked.

"Don't rush, I need to check first." Tsukikawa Shu said, picking up a chopstick and starting to inspect the food the two of them had prepared.

"Hmm... although it doesn't look very appealing, at least it's not burnt, and the rice isn't mushy either," Tsukikawa Shuu said.

"Then hurry up and give us the food!" Kaori Orimoto said.

"Okay."

Tsukikawa Shu sat down on a rock nearby and smiled. "But before that, you guys still have to give me a back massage."

Then, he pointed to Yui Yuigahama on the other side.

"Also, please make one for Yuihama as well, as an apology to you."

"Why should I!" Kaori Orimoto finally couldn't contain her anger. "Why should I do this kind of thing for you! Isn't cooking for you enough?"

"You did it on purpose, didn't you? You did it on purpose!" Chika Nakamachi shouted angrily.

“I’ve said it before, food is a very important thing in this world,” Tsukikawa Shuu said calmly. “If it’s so important, why do you think that simply cooking a meal is enough to obtain enough food?”

"You two have worked for less than an hour, haven't you? The pay is not commensurate with the time you've spent working."

Tsukikawa Shu laughed and said, "Besides, I'm treating this massage as an apology to you."

"You don't actually think that I have to accept your insincere apology and that's it, do you?"

"You're deliberately making things difficult for us!" Kaori Orimoto was almost in tears.

“What have we done to offend you? How are you going to treat us?” Nakamachi Chika also said.

"Making things difficult? When you make things difficult for others, don't you have any self-awareness? Or do you think that what you do is perfectly justified?"

Tsukikawa Shu sneered, "And speaking of offending me, you've done your share of things, haven't you? You wasted a lot of my time at the social gathering."

"Are you really that petty?" Orimoto Kaori said angrily.

"Yeah, you hold a grudge over such a small thing. It was just a waste of your time!" Chika Nakamachi said angrily.

"As I've already said, this is just a small token of your sincerity in offering an apology," Tsukikawa Shuu said coldly. "If you don't want to do it, then get out!"

"You..." Orimoto Kaori felt her brain congested with anger, and she even felt a little dizzy.

"Let's go! This guy is deliberately humiliating us!" Chika Nakamachi grabbed Kaori Orimoto's hand and started walking back.

They couldn't swallow this insult.

After being pulled a long way by Chika Nakamachi, Kaori Orimoto gradually regained her composure.

"This guy is hurrying up on purpose!" Chika Nakamachi was still furious.

"They're deliberately humiliating us," Kaori Orimoto said through gritted teeth.

“We don’t want food that’s given in exchange for such humiliation!” said Chika Nakamachi.

“Yes, I would rather die than accept something like this in such a humiliating way!” Orimoto Kaori said.

……

……

Meanwhile, in the corner where Yu Sheng and the others were resting, everyone's stomachs were already rumbling with hunger.

To conserve their energy, many people had already curled up and gone to sleep, hoping that sleep would alleviate their hunger and that Orimoto Kaori and Nakamachi Chika would bring the food back soon.

The situation with the jade rope wasn't much better.

His wound was infected and was throbbing with pain.

He is not receiving proper treatment here, and his wound is now worsening.

"President... your wound is infested with maggots."

A student council member nearby removed the bandage from his wound and then exclaimed in shock.

"Hurry up and pick them out!"

Yu Sheng was also a little scared.

I thought it was just a minor infection, but I never expected worms to grow in it.

These were probably planted in the wounds when those giant flies swarmed them in that warehouse, and now they're starting to hatch into adult insects.

Thinking about this, Yu Sheng felt like there was something wrong with her whole body, her muscles ached slightly, as if some insects were wriggling inside.

It seems... these insects have burrowed into the flesh.

"Hurry up and check if there are any elsewhere! Check quickly! If there are, pick them out quickly!" Yu Sheng looked very nervous.

He didn't want to die. He still had grand plans to carry out in this alternate world, and he couldn't just die from the corrosive effects of the parasites!

Chapter 121 Yui Yuigahama's Choice

One by one, plump white maggots were picked out of the wound.

"How about it, is there any more?"

Yu Sheng asked worriedly.

"I think... there aren't any left..."

The other party said this, but their tone was uncertain.

……

After glancing at the situation on Yu Sheng's side, the three people on Mu Dao's side were gathered together, quietly discussing something.

"I have a feeling something's not right?" the blond college student said with some concern. "This team seems to have some problems with how they do things. They're always so rigid and they have to discuss everything."

“I also think there are some problems.” The Black guy nodded.

"Um……"

Makijima did not answer, but kept thinking and weighing the pros and cons.

Having experienced the Otherworld once, he had a relatively high tolerance for hunger, but he couldn't just waste time like that.

He really wanted to leave these guys on his own, but he had nowhere to go. Other teams were either full or had many elderly, weak, or disabled members, and Makijima didn't want to go and take on those burdens.

In comparison, if Yu Sheng and the others could stop their discussion, although one person had died, fortunately there were no seriously injured people to take care of. Although Yu Sheng's wounds were infected, they were only superficial injuries and had not yet affected his mobility. If they could concentrate their efforts, their survival ability would still be quite strong.

"I think we should wait and see. Although we've been hungry all day, we can still hold on," Makijima said.

He still intends to remain patient and let these guys finish discussing the plan as soon as possible.

Since Makijima, a "veteran player," had said so, the other two didn't say anything more.

At that moment, someone suddenly let out a surprised exclamation.

"They're back! Orimoto Kazunaka is back!"

The people who had been lying on the ground like rags got up one by one.

"How's it going? Did you get any food?"

"How much food do you have? I'm starving to death."

"Have they reconciled? Have they reconciled with Tsukikawa Shuu?"

The crowd surrounded Orimoto Kaori and Nakamachi Chika.

"That guy! He's been making things difficult for us!" Chika Nakamachi said through gritted teeth.

Everyone looked at each other.

"That Tsukikawa Shuu has no intention of giving us any food," Orimoto Kaori said angrily.

“Yes, it’s not enough for us to apologize, they also want us to cook for them, and that’s not enough, they also want us to give them massages afterward!” Chika Nakamachi said.

"That's right! And Tsukikawa Shuu also said that we can wash our hands with water, but we're not allowed to drink it. Isn't that just making things difficult for us? It's intentional!" Orimoto Kaori said.

The two girls looked aggrieved, tears welling up in their eyes, and recounted the treatment they had received, embellishing the story with exaggerated details.

There's no other reason than this way, so the responsibility won't fall on my shoulders; it's all Tsukikawa Shu's fault!

As expected, after hearing the accounts of Kaori Orimoto and Chika Nakamachi, the entire student council was filled with righteous indignation.

"How outrageous! We sincerely apologized, and he still tried to make things difficult for us!"

"He's a monster! He takes pleasure in watching others suffer!"

"Narrow-minded! So narrow-minded! They can't even forgive us for such a small thing."

"We absolutely cannot give in to him!"

……

At this moment, Makijima, who had followed the crowd here with high expectations, frowned.

"So, what are your plans next?" Makijima asked.
