Martial artists can never be ultimately insulted

After repeatedly demonstrating the allure of the Shiranui school, the side effects continued to take effect, as the estrogen levels in Mai Shiranui's body had not yet fully decreased.

Now, stimulated by the masculine scent of Yuan Chen mixed with a large amount of pheromones, his face turned as if a bucket of water had been poured onto a red-hot iron plate.

My brain went on strike, my limbs felt as weak as if my bones had been removed, and my cheeks and earlobes turned red all the way to my collarbone, almost as if they were about to bleed.

Then, Mai Shiranui suddenly bent over, completely disregarding how voluptuous her lower body would be in a kneeling position, and simply clutched her lower abdomen, saying:

"I... need to use the restroom..."

Volume 1: Chapter 130 - Lingering Charm

Watching Mai Shiranui leave in a hurry, Yuan Chen and Genryusai Maki remained silent. After a long while, Genryusai Maki finally stood up, picked up a mop, and prepared to clean up the water stains left by Mai Shiranui as she left.

"Wu Shui... I mean, Wu sweated quite a bit, hahaha."

Genryusai Maki said with a somewhat awkward smile.

Upon hearing Genryusai Maki's words, Gen Chen simply nodded, then took a deep breath to end the stimulation of his glands with the life energy.

But just as Mai Shiranui said, the charm technique of the Shiranui style works internally, first affecting the user and then enchanting others. So even after the ninjutsu ends, the hormones secreted in excess due to the energy surge will continue to have an effect.

Thinking about it, Yuan Chen also glanced at the raised flag. With just a simple sense, Yuan Chen was certain that if he were to use the Fatal Chicken to forcibly recover now, it would only cause his hand to hurt again after using the Fighting Spirit Bomb.

If the hard approach doesn't work, we'll have to try the soft approach.

Standing up, Yuan Chen said, "I'm going to the restroom too."

Upon hearing this, Genryusai Maki subconsciously looked at Yuan Chen, then her eyes widened as if startled by something, and she quickly turned her head away, saying, "Oh."

Then, Yuan Chen walked past Genryusai Maki.

As he walked, he resembled a medieval knight engaged in a duel, his terrifying spear pointing straight ahead. Even through the thick fabric, Genryusai Maki could clearly feel its ferocious sharpness.

He was full of vigor and vitality. Although he wasn't sweating, a large patch of his fabric was clearly soaked from the gun barrel.

How long has this been accumulating...?

She dared not speak, fearing it would provoke a further reaction from Yuan Chen. But then, Genryusai Maki realized... wait a minute, wasn't this Yuan Chen's first time at the Shiranui-ryu dojo? Did he really know where the restroom was?

This isn't a public restroom, so there aren't any road signs or anything like that.

Thinking this through, Genryusai Maki quickly realized the blind spot in the matter.

Damn it, it seems Yuan Chen is following the water stains left by Wu Liu!

"I'll cook it!" Genryusai Maki subconsciously stood up, but as soon as she stood up, she showed a surprised and uncertain expression.

On the one hand, it is because they have confidence in Yuan Chen's ability to control him.

On the other hand, it also gives us a full understanding of Yuan Chen's current state and Wu's charm...

Perhaps it's best to let them solve it themselves?

Thinking this, after a long silence, Genryusai Maki finally stood up, her face full of hesitation, and decided to follow the water stains...

Regardless, Wu is his friend, and Yuan Chen is the next sect leader of the Martial God Sect whom he recognizes. As a friend and fellow disciple, it would be fine if they were in love, but the current situation is clearly not right!

Just as Genryusai Maki decided to follow, on the other side, Gen Chen was already walking quickly down the corridor along the trail of dripping water.

It's not that I have any feelings for Mai Shiranui... well, I do have feelings for her.

But Yuan Chen wasn't the type to throw caution to the wind when he was hungry. The main reason he didn't ask where the restroom was was because Genryusai Maki herself was also very beautiful. Although she wasn't as naturally alluring as Mai Shiranui, she was still quite pretty in his current state...

It's so bad that I'd explode if I looked at it even once more.

Although it is unknown where the toilets are at the Shiranui-ryu dojo, Mai Shiranui goes back to her bedroom to change clothes. In similar living places, the toilets are often located near the bedroom, making it convenient for washing up in the morning and using the toilet in the middle of the night.

As Yuan Chen expected, he found the restroom at the corner of the corridor and immediately went over to open the door.

But with a clicking sound, Yuan Chen realized that the door had been locked, and at the same time, he heard Shiranui Mai's tense voice coming from inside.

"Someone!"

"Weren't you going back to your room to change?" Yuan Chen frowned upon discovering that Mai Shiranui was inside.

Upon recognizing Yuan Chen's voice, Mai Shiranui, who was busy at work, seemed to be stimulated by something. Her whole body trembled violently, and she swallowed hard, then gritted her teeth and said with feigned nonchalance:

"I've sweated so much! How can I just go straight back to my room? I need to wipe myself down first!"

As she spoke, Mai Shiranui suddenly gasped, accompanied by the sound of flowing water. After a moment, she continued nonchalantly:

"Compared to this, what are you doing here... Let me tell you, don't do anything wrong..."

Although she tried to appear calm, anyone with ears could tell that Mai Shiranui's voice sounded a bit strange.

“You should know better than I do the effects of charm on the caster. I need to take care of it,” Yuan Chen said succinctly, without any intention of hiding anything or lying.

In such matters, speaking hesitantly or timidly will arouse suspicion. It is better to explain the reasons and purpose clearly to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and associations.

“Well… wait here! Or go to another restroom.” Mai Shiranui said, her voice trembling. “I’ve been sweating a lot… I need to shower for a bit first—let’s wait in line!”

Upon hearing this, Yuan Chen frowned, but then he heard footsteps behind him.

Turning around, I saw Genryusai Maki following the water trail.

Looking at Yuan Chen standing at the door, Genryusai Maki was also stunned. She had walked all the way and confirmed that this was the direction Wu had left in, and also the direction where Wu's boudoir was located. She had been constantly worried that she was a step too late.

He hurriedly followed, not expecting that Yuan Chen actually came looking for a restroom...

Seeing Genji follow Shiranui Ryuu's trail, Genji thought he was trying to take the opportunity to... go to the restroom.

Thinking about it, Genryusai Maki scratched her head and suddenly realized that her behavior seemed to be no different from Gen Chen's; both of them were deliberately following him.

Realizing something was amiss, Genryusai Maki quickly changed the subject, saying, "I was worried you wouldn't be able to find a restroom... By the way, why aren't you going in yet?"

"Someone's there..."

Yuan Chen sighed, and then said, "I need to leave for a bit... The surge of hormones is quite severe, and if it's not treated, it might affect my physical condition."

Hearing the commotion and glancing at the water stains on the ground, Genryusai Maki immediately realized the situation and silently nodded in understanding.

In the restroom, after hearing that Genryusai Maki had also caught up, Mai lost her voice. Her body and mind became increasingly tense, and she tried her best to hold back from making any sound, for fear that if she opened her mouth, she would lose control and give herself away.

Even though the situation is obvious now, knowing it in your heart but not saying it out loud is a completely different thing from saying it out loud.

Just pretend nothing happened when the time comes!

Yuan Chen didn't want to discuss this much. He simply explained it once and then turned around, found a nearby room, and went in to play a game of Microsoft's simulated flight simulator.

At first, Genryusai Maki didn't care and didn't want to get involved anymore, but as soon as she looked away, her eyes widened again.

"Wait! That's dance—"

"..." Entering the room, looking at the furnishings and girlish decorations...

After a moment of silence, Yuan Chen took a deep breath, feeling the lingering scent of the room's occupant constantly stimulating his already restless nerves. Since things had already come to this, he simply locked the door, ignored the airport environment, and forced the takeoff.

Standing in the middle of the corridor, to her left was Wu taking a shower in the bathroom, and to her right was Ah Chen playing with a flight simulator in Wu's room. Only she herself was doing nothing...

For a moment, Genryusai Maki didn't know whether this sense of incongruity was due to the despicable couple or to herself.

After much thought, Genryusai Maki could only sigh deeply and decide to stop worrying about these ridiculous matters and go back to drink some water to calm down.

After a while, Wu cautiously opened the door, popped half her head out and looked around. She breathed a sigh of relief after finding no one around. Then, wearing her loose martial arts uniform and holding her wet underwear in her hand, she felt the cool breeze passing through her uniform and quickly ran back to her room. Without saying a word, she closed and locked the door.

After confirming everything, Mai Shiranui breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and saw Yuan Chen sitting on her bed playing a flight simulator.

Wearing only a thin martial arts uniform, disheveled from her hurried run, Mai Shiranui looked at Yuan Chen, who was clearly also affected by the incident, and said with difficulty, "No, the marks you... I left behind are very difficult to remove!"

“…I do know a way to do it without leaving a trace.” Yuan Chen said in a rough voice, looking at Mai Shiranui’s red lips.

After a while, she changed into new clothes, applied new lipstick, breathed on her palms to make sure she wasn't acting childish, and checked that there were no extra marks on her body before turning her resentful gaze to Yuan Chen behind her.

"You bastard...!" Mai Shiranui gritted her teeth in resentment, grinding them as she spoke:

"You're dead if you tell anyone, you stinky Ah Chen!"

"I won't tell," Yuan Chen replied, shaking his head.

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's earnest response, Mai Shiranui remained silent for a moment before saying, "However, this is also a side effect of the charm technique... I... will reluctantly forgive you."

Hearing Mai Shiranui's slightly awkward voice, Yuan Chen shook his head and said, "I'll take responsibility... But speaking of which, do you have any larger martial arts uniforms? These feel a bit tight."

Upon hearing this, Mai Shiranui initially hummed arrogantly, seemingly quite satisfied with Yuan Chen's attitude.

But upon hearing that the martial arts uniform didn't fit, she immediately pouted and said:

"Look at our height difference! No matter how loose my martial arts uniform is, it definitely won't fit you! Honestly... I'll go to the warehouse and see if I can find anything that fits."

A moment later, Mai Shiranui returned carrying a somewhat worn martial arts uniform and said, "Hey, there are a few sets of my dad's old uniforms in the warehouse. They've been there for a long time, but they're in very good condition. You can change into them first."

"Wouldn't that be inappropriate?" Upon hearing this, Yuan Chen paused for a moment, then asked, "After all, it's your father's heirloom..."

"My parents passed away when I was very young, and my grandfather raised me."

Hearing Yuan Chen's words, Mai Shiranui didn't seem to care much, only saying after explaining, "But thank you for your concern..."

Hearing Mai Shiranui say that, Yuan Chen didn't say anything more. After changing into his martial arts uniform, he stretched his body a little and said, "It fits well and is much more comfortable."

Upon hearing this, Mai Shiranui glanced at Yuan Chen twice, then stepped forward to help straighten his clothes and buttons. After confirming that everything was in order, she nodded with satisfaction.

But the next moment, a complex and wistful expression appeared on Mai Shiranui's face: "Really... we've only known each other for a day, how come suddenly..."

"It's because of the enchantment and the golden flames, isn't it?" Yuan Chen said.

"The charm technique causes a surge in the secretion of related hormones in the body, and the golden flame further enhances the effects and concentration of these hormones. The life energy that constitutes the golden flame originates from my body, which generates an unconscious sense of attraction..."

On the bright side, the fact that we managed to resist the final urge despite so many influences at least proves that we were resisting this instinctive impulse.

"Who would be happy about something like this..." Upon hearing Yuan Chen's explanation, Mai Shiranui merely hummed a few times, then said:

"Although things happened rather suddenly, since you said you'd take responsibility, you have to take it to the end! Otherwise, I'll get angry!"

Yes, it will.

Yuan Chen nodded, but then added, "However..."

"But what?" Mai Shiranui asked.

“However, my family situation is rather unique,” ​​Yuan Chen replied.

But after hearing Yuan Chen's reply, Mai Shiranui didn't seem nervous or bothered at all. She just waved her hand and said, "Hmph! No problem! I can handle this kind of thing myself!"

"I hope so." Seeing Mai Shiranui's confident demeanor, Yuan Chen didn't discourage her. He simply changed his clothes and followed Mai Shiranui back to the martial arts arena.

Seeing the two return together, Genryusai Maki, who had been waiting for some time, was also taken aback. Then, with a suspicious look on her face, she said, "Um... the clothes A-Chen was wearing before... don't seem to be the same ones he's wearing now?"

"His clothes were dirty too, so I changed them for him temporarily." With a sigh, Mai Shiranui shrugged helplessly and said, "So I found a set of clothes that fit A-Chen first. As for the previous set... I'll send it back to you after I wash it."

Finally, Mai Shiranui looked at Yuan Chen, who nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you."

"Humph."

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's thanks, Mai Shiranui merely gave a soft hum.

Meanwhile, Genryusai Maki tilted her head in confusion as she looked at Gen Chen, who had his arm draped over Mai Shiranui's shoulder, and then at Mai, who seemed completely unconcerned and was even standing next to Gen Chen.

Is it just my imagination? They seem... to have gotten much closer?

Volume 1: Chapter 131 - On the Way Home from School

Although she still felt ashamed, Mai Shiranui tried her best to appear poised and generous, and did not show that she cared too much.

However, it was obvious that this was just for show in front of her best friend. Whenever Genryusai Maki looked away, Shiranui Mai would secretly make a face at Genji.

However, no matter how much you try to put on a show, some things are unavoidable.

"...Aren't you going to eat something?" After finishing with the miscellaneous matters, Genryusai Maki brought out some pastries and looked at Shiranui Mai with some surprise, asking, "Didn't you say you were very hungry? Why aren't you eating anything now?"

Upon hearing this, Mai Shiranui's lips twitched slightly as she said, "I just ate something... I'm not hungry now."

As they spoke, Mai Shiranui's gaze involuntarily drifted toward Yuan Chen, only to see him devouring his food, looking utterly starving.

This left Mai Shiranui unsure whether to be happy or angry, as it indirectly proved that Yuan Chen was captivated by her charm. Thinking this, she handed him her share of pastries, saying:

"You can have this... If it's not enough, there's more in the fridge, you can take it home. If you want more, I'll make some more for you later."

"Thank you. You'll have to try my cooking sometime." Yuan Chen nodded in thanks.

Mai Shiranui just pursed her lips, clearly misunderstood, but Yuan Chen didn't correct her. After all, it's all about eating, just different things.

After eating some snacks and glancing at the time, Yuan Chen prepared to leave.

Upon hearing that Yuan Chen was leaving, Shiranui Hanzo also arrived and handed Yuan Chen a small booklet, saying:
