Nino heard Dongfang Chen's response, but when she looked up, there was no one left on the wide road.

She stood there stunned for a moment, then walked back, somewhat disappointed.

As soon as I turned the corner, I saw May standing behind the wall.

"Didn't you just say you went up? Why are you still here?" Nino asked in a panic.

May smiled somewhat awkwardly and explained, "I was worried that something might happen between you and Chen, so I thought I'd stay here and see if anything did happen, and if so, I could try to mediate."

Nino rolled her eyes at her and said irritably, "What conflict could we possibly have? What kind of person do you take me for?"

"Aren't I worried about you?"

May gently took Nino's hand. "Okay, don't be angry. Let's go upstairs quickly."

Nino gave a haughty snort and let Satsuki lead her upstairs.

……

Tuesday, May 30th, rain.

Normal school life, but within the school there are five—no, now it has become seven—strange legends.

The Slit-Mouthed Woman and Hanako in the Toilet have been added.

So far, apart from the mannequin and the Sadako videotape, there hasn't been any other news.

Of course, it would be best if nothing ever happened; a peaceful daily life doesn't need to be full of strange occurrences!

"You've been looking at me the whole time. Is there something you don't understand?"

During the break, Dongfang Chen looked at May on his right.

After I arrived in the classroom today, she kept glancing at me.

"Ah, yes, I do have a few questions I'd like to ask Chen."

In May, she hurriedly picked up her textbook and walked towards him, trying her best to act as usual.

Seeing her absent-minded look, Dongfang Chen roughly guessed what was going on.

It's estimated that it was Ichika who told May about his affair with multiple women.

After briefly explaining a point of knowledge to May, seeing that she didn't react, he raised his hand and tapped May on the forehead.

"What, what's wrong?"

She was a little confused.

"What's wrong? You weren't listening to the points I was explaining to you."

"Feel sorry……"

In May, knowing he was in the wrong, he apologized.

"Was it Ichika who told you about me?" Dongfang Chen asked calmly.

"Ah."

She nodded slightly.

To be honest, when she heard that Dongfang Chen had several girlfriends, she immediately expressed her doubts.

But Ichika had no reason to lie to her, and she explained the details, so she had no choice but to believe her.

"If all of that is true, will May hate me and distance herself from me because of it?"

"I don't know either." She shook her head, looking confused.

As a girl, it's normal to hate scumbags.

But as a friend, and a friend she really liked, she hesitated.

Whether it's the fact that Dongfang Chen often helps her or that he immediately takes action when she asks for help, it makes it impossible for her to truly dislike Dongfang Chen.

"That's the truth, and I won't argue or cover it up. You may find my behavior annoying, and that's perfectly understandable."

"But the fact that May is still willing to talk to me already tells us the answer, doesn't it?"

"No matter how your attitude towards me changes, whether you hate me or stay the same, May will always be my friend, and that will never change."

Dongfang Chen spoke in a gentle tone.

Upon hearing Dongfang Chen's last sentence, May's eyes instantly lit up.

He smiled at Dongfang Chen and said, "Yes, our friendship hasn't changed!"

However, there aren't that many genuine friendships between men and women.

Yes, we're friends now.

Chapter 137 Shall we sleep here together?

School in the afternoon.

With nothing else to do, Dongfang Chen decided to accompany Xiaozi to visit the Far East Magic Nap Society.

After all, he held the title of vice minister, didn't he?

The two shared an umbrella and walked side by side down the school corridor. Even though they didn't talk much, he noticed that Shoko always had a smile on her lips.

He looks very happy.

"Did you think of something happy, Shoko?" he asked with a smile.

"Why do you say that?" Shoko asked, still somewhat puzzled.

"Because Shoko always has a smile on her face!"

"Eh? Really?"

She nervously raised her hand to touch her cheek, which seemed to be a little hot.

Shoko always wears her heart on her sleeve, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance.

Seeing her adorable reaction, Dongfang Chen smiled and did not escalate the situation further.

"Speaking of which, Shoko has been a member of Rikka's club for a while now. How are you feeling?"

Dongfang Chen changed the subject.

She nodded slightly: "Yes, everyone is very interesting and kind to me. It's just that they often say things I don't understand."

It's perfectly normal for a normal person not to understand slang or cheesy terminology.

"That's good. I was worried you wouldn't adapt well. If you have any problems, be sure to tell me."

"Well, I will."

Shoko nodded slightly.

Before long, they arrived at the entrance of the club.

Shoko knocked on the door, and it opened, revealing the scene inside.

In the center of the activity room is a magic circle pattern with a diameter of two meters.

On May 7th, Fennel used a chimera (cat) as a pillow and curled up in the center of the magic circle.

Standing to the side were Rikka Takanashi and Sanae Dekomori, each holding a flashlight and shining it on the magic circle, while chanting some strange incantations.

"Come forth, you demons from another world!"

Rikka Takanashi raised her arms and shouted, and Sanae Dekomori, who was standing next to her, quickly picked up a teddy bear from the side and threw it into the magic circle.

Then he exclaimed, "Master, it's out! We summoned it successfully!"

Rikka Takanashi covered her eyes with one hand, nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Dongfang Chen: "As expected of the Saturnus Magic Circle, its effectiveness is indeed very strong, even summoning the Thunder Lord."

Dongfang Chen: "So, my form of address has changed again?"

To be fair, "Thunder Lord" sounds better than "Thunder Controller".

"Because the Thunder Master defeated the god of another world, his strength was further enhanced, and he was upgraded to the Thunder Lord."

Rikka Takanashi explained in a very serious tone.

"Whatever you like!"

He couldn't be bothered to argue with this guy.

Shoko, however, was unfazed and walked into the activity room with a smile to put down her schoolbag.

Dongfang Chen also put down his schoolbag, walked into the magic circle, squatted down in front of May 7th Fennel, and reached out to poke her cheek.

"Hey, May 7th, if you're going to sleep, find somewhere else. You'll catch a cold sleeping on the floor!"

She opened her eyes and looked at him: "Oh, it's Dongfang. It's okay, I'm wearing a coat, I'm not cold. Do you want to sleep here with me?"

“No, I don’t have the habit of taking a nap,” he replied decisively.

"Really? That's a real shame. Taking a nap is so comfortable..."

As they were talking, Fennel fell asleep on May 7th.

Dongfang Chen's lips twitched as he watched.

This girl is really carefree. Even with a guy squatting right in front of her, she can just fall asleep without a care in the world.
