I'm just an internet cafe owner

Saeko Busujima began her operation, while Alicia nervously looked at Liu Yuan. This was the first time she had used this method to find out about a guest, and she wasn't sure if it would work.

Feeling the girl's gaze, Liu Yuan encouraged her, "You did a great job. Just follow your own ideas. I'll remind you if your suggestions cause problems."

"Thank you, boss!"

Alicia breathed a sigh of relief. This was the first time she had remotely directed a guest to save more people, or even the world. She was both nervous and excited, hoping that this would be a starting point to help more people in the internet cafe.

Meanwhile, Saeko Busujima received the message and began her rescue mission.

Centered on the kendo club, Saeko Busujima swiftly carved a bloody path through the enemy lines. As for her feigning recovery after being bitten? That's practically impossible; a virus that turns people into zombies in ten to thirty seconds offers no chance of concealment.

Meanwhile, her zombie-slaying activities attracted the attention of many zombies, and in the process, she saved more than twenty students. Some of these students hid in lockers, while others were lucky enough to run faster than the others. However, what caught Saeko Busujima's attention was a fat man wearing glasses. Although he was nervous and panicked when facing zombies, he and a pink-haired girl managed to take down several zombies and hold them off until she arrived.

Chapter 466 The Little Mourning Chamberlain Who Was Casually Killed (Bonus Chapter)

"Come with me."

Seeing that her classmates were unharmed, Saeko Busujima used just a few words to get the students surrounded by zombies to follow in her footsteps.

The rooftop was her first target, and she fought and killed in silence the way. These zombies were terrifying; simply cutting off their flesh was not enough to stop them. Only by completely destroying their brains could their bodies be stopped.

If you don't want to ruin your brain, there's another way: drain the zombie blood.

Fortunately, the equipment sold by the machine-type is powerful enough that even cutting bones is as easy as slicing vegetables. Furthermore, the weapons are equipped with nanite swarms from the Burning Wind technology; after wounding an enemy, the nanite swarms will use the flesh and blood resources to multiply, thus ensuring the weapon's offensive capability.

From the outbreak of the zombie crisis to Saeko Busujima's operation, less than half a minute passed, but in that half minute, Saeko Busujima only managed to save about twenty classmates.

"Follow Busujima-senpai! Everyone, let's help Busujima-senpai share the burden!"

A chubby guy wearing glasses suggested, "Classmates, grab some sticks and brooms, and leave a passage for the seniors. We boys will stand in front and behind the passage and use the poles to block the zombies, buying some time for Senior Poison Island!"

With ordinary weapons, Saeko Busujima would be overwhelmed facing so many zombies, but with a good weapon, it's just a matter of expending stamina. However, at Alicia's suggestion, she bought a few Senzu Beans and put them in her mouth, so that whenever her strength waned, she could just pop a Senzu Bean to continue her burst of power.

Following Alicia's advice, Saeko Busujima led a group of people and fought their way up to the rooftop.

Alicia's advice for the rooftop was very simple, because the rooftop only has an exit and an entrance, unlike a corridor which is interconnected and people can come from anywhere.

At the same time, to rescue people, it's necessary to first find a relatively safe spot to ensure the next step of the plan can be executed, and the rooftop is a very suitable choice. Starting from here, kill your way down and clear out the zombies in the school. Then, the school can be used as a temporary rest area to carry out the next plan.

They could even wait here until tomorrow to go to an internet cafe to gain power before running away with their people, but going straight down now not only wouldn't protect many people, but they might also find themselves in danger.

However, when Saeko Busujima reached the rooftop, she discovered that there were quite a few zombies there as well, and one of the orange-haired students was even surrounded by two zombies.

Saeko Busujima didn't hesitate much, prioritizing the two people next to the woman named Rei Miyamoto.

Male zombie with a headshot.

"Are you OK?"

It was only then that Miyamoto Rei noticed that the zombies around her were gone, and that more than forty students were now following Saeko Busujima in an organized manner.

"Why? Why couldn't you come back sooner? Just one minute! Just one minute and they wouldn't be dead! Why!"

The two people Miyamoto Rei mentioned were her boyfriend, Igo Hisashi, and her childhood friend, Kotaka. While Kotaka was out doing nothing, he discovered zombies and planned to run away with his childhood friend, Miyamoto Rei.

Rei Miyamoto and her boyfriend believed it too and ran to the balcony. But they were a step too slow; by the time they reached the balcony, it was already swarming with zombies. As a result, while protecting her, Igou Yong tried to bite her, and within ten seconds, he also bit Komuro.

It wouldn't even take a minute. If Saeko Busujima had arrived thirty seconds earlier, neither of them would have died. If she had arrived ten seconds earlier, Komuro would have lived. In the end, one boyfriend and one childhood friend were both utterly destroyed, dead beyond any hope of survival.

Upon seeing Saeko Busujima, Rei Miyamoto didn't express gratitude but instead berated her. In response to the accusations, Saeko Busujima calmly delivered a powerful punch.

"you…"

Rei Miyamoto felt a pain in her face. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she was about to speak when Saeko Busujima slapped her other cheek hard again, then calmly said, "If you want to die, jump. If you want to live, shut up. If you don't shut up, I'll help you live with dignity."

This is a chaotic world, and in chaotic times, people's hearts have lost their traditional values. Saeko Busujima can't redeem people, but after saving so many classmates, her sense of responsibility tells her that if anyone tries to interfere with her saving lives or affect everyone's mood, then let them die.

At that moment, Miyamoto Rei covered her mouth, because she could sense that Busujima Saeko in front of her was capable of such a thing.

Seeing that Miyamoto Rei had calmed down, Busujima Saeko gave her instructions.

"Send a few people to watch the passage. Call me if a zombie comes. Send a few more people to patrol the rooftop to prevent zombies from climbing up the walls. I'm going to take a break."

After saying that, Saeko Busujima sat down to compose herself. Thanks to the battles in the game, she had thoroughly learned how to kill quickly.

Having studied kendo, defeating her enemies was easy for her, but with the changing times, kendo was no longer the deadly weapon it once was. Besides, even if it were a deadly weapon, it might not be effective against zombies.

Meanwhile, Alicia, who had been giving advice to Saeko Busujima in the internet cafe, breathed a sigh of relief after learning that Saeko was temporarily safe. Previously, she had mostly guided customers online, offering suggestions on games or rewards.

But even when she gave such cruel advice this time, she felt uncomfortable, as if a few simple words had definitively determined whether someone should live or die. She was like a god, but as a human being, she didn't want to be one.

Just as she was taking a deep breath and calming herself, Liu Yuan sat beside her, peeling an orange and watching her.

"boss?"

"It's alright, just keep adjusting. I just felt something was wrong and came to check on you. How are you? Are you having trouble making some decisions? Because any suggestion could lead to the death of one person, or even dozens, hundreds, or tens of thousands of people."

Alicia nodded: "Yes, it feels very difficult. It feels like my humanity is about to disappear if I continue."

Liu Yuan patted her shoulder and comforted her, "It's normal. I felt the same way at first. But you get used to it over time. Otherwise, why would I be the one contacting customers after get off work? I'm afraid you'll become corrupted. Just understand what you're doing, understand that you're just giving customers some applicable advice, and don't think of yourself as superior. Believe me, your humanity will never disappear."

"Is the boss worried about me?" Alicia winked playfully, while also noticing that behind Liu Yuan, Kisara was biting into an orange.

Liu Yuan then peeled another orange, but this time he didn't eat it. Instead, he held it in his hand and teased, "Yeah! Since you're going to try working after get off work, I'll naturally lend a hand."

"Aren't you afraid that Mokugen will get jealous?"

Liu Yuan shook his head: "You underestimate Mu Geng. She's not just jealous, she's capable of soaking herself in a vat of vinegar. It's not a big problem. We'll just fish her out of the vinegar vat and put her in a honey vat later."

"Pfft~ I finally understand why Kisara fell for you. You really spoil her."

Liu Yuan chuckled and said, "Since she likes me, and I like her too, who else should I spoil if not her? To be honest, I've actually longed for a womanizer lifestyle, and being a scumbag was once my dream. But, thinking about it is one thing, actually getting to know her makes me realize I'm too petty. One 'wooden rod' and it's all shut up. Come on, open your mouth~"

"Ah~"

Kisara opened his mouth and a happy smile appeared on his face after eating the orange that Liu Yuan had peeled.

Chapter 467 Love Will Come After Conquering the World~

With the opening of the internet cafe, a special group of customers caused a little commotion at branch number four today. It was Valentine's Day, and a couple had entered the cafe.

"Where is this place?"

A couple named "Immovable Legend" and "Beautiful Calamity" appeared inside the internet cafe.

However, this couple is a little special. The man, Aikawa Fudo, is wearing a red, tight-fitting combat suit, while Mokuhara Shishimi is wearing a cloak and a mask, nervously looking around.

Looking at the newlyweds, Liu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

"I didn't expect Valentine's Day to be so..."

Surprisingly, a couple actually showed up!

Liu Yuan's words made the two people in front of him tense up instantly. Aikawa Fudo immediately put on a hood and looked at the girl next to him.

"Princess of Death! You are indeed very powerful."

"Hmph, you..."

At this moment, Mokuhara Shishimi was holding a meteor hammer and also had a fighting expression, but when she felt the gazes of the people around her, her body froze.

The people around her weren't looking at her with excitement or curiosity, but rather at Aikawa Fudo.

Liu Yuan, Mu Geng, and Alicia were leaning over the front desk, watching the two of them with expressions of schadenfreude.

Seeing that the two of them were frozen, Liu Yuan said calmly, "It's okay, keep fighting. I won't blacklist you or force you to leave."

Everyone present was not blind; they could tell that these two were somewhat like Romeo and Juliet, two people from different camps who fell in love, pretending in front of outsiders while secretly having a romantic relationship in private.

"... "

"... "

After a long silence, the two of them stood up straight and turned their heads away at the same time.

"Stop pretending. People from your world might not be able to tell, but people here can tell you're a couple."

After Liu Yuan finished speaking, Alicia teased, "That's right~ We've seen this kind of scene many times: pretending not to know each other at work, and then secretly being intimate in private."

Bronya, who was working, heard this, first looked at Liu Yuan, then glanced at Kisaragi, and then nodded.

Kisara laughed and said, "You two are like a pair of silly lovers, stop acting."

Aikawa Fudo's face turned completely red, his whole body tense, and he asked nervously, "Um, really? Are our acting skills that bad?"

"Your acting skills are not bad, but the love in your eyes for each other betrays you~"

Kisara's words instantly made the couple blush completely, while Masami lowered her head and mumbled softly, "Um, I... cough cough..."

Alicia could tell that the girl was trying to ease the awkwardness, so she went to her side and comforted her, "Liking someone isn't a bad thing~ This lovely girl, how about spending more time with the person you like every day?"

At the same time, Liu Yuan looked at Xiangchuan Fudo and introduced, "This is the four-dimensional space internet cafe. The time ratio here is 1:60 with your world, and it can be open for you for twelve hours every day."

Aikawa Fudo's eyes lit up instantly: "So that means..."

"Is one hour here equal to one minute in our world?"

Mokuhara Shishimi picked up on Aikawa Fudo's words, and she was thrilled to hear about this time ratio, which meant that she would have more time to spend with the people she liked every day.

Aikawa Fudo was in the same boat; originally, his love for Megumin Shishimi could only be carried out in secret. After all, he was the captain of the hero team "Hyouka Five Warriors," while Megumin Shishimi was the Death Princess of the secret organization "Moonlight Society." They were destined to be enemies, yet they fell in love.

Neither of them wanted to affect the other's future, so they kept their relationship a secret and dared not express it.

Now that they heard that their daily time together had increased exponentially, the two of them took off their headgear and showed excited and happy expressions.

"Fun, isn't it? Come on! Let's turn on two machines. By the way, kid, how about a private room? It's expensive, but it's worth it. It's a small room just for the two of you~ You can do anything except 'that kind of thing'."

"Plop..."

Aikawa Fudo swallowed hard, but hearing the exorbitant price of the private room made his heart pound.

It's expensive, too expensive, but the thought of being able to spend time alone with the person he likes brought a determined look to his rosy cheeks.

Liu Yuan patted him on the shoulder and whispered, "Don't worry about the money. Our store has a money-making strategy. Although you can only spend the money you earn by using the items from our store, believe me, you'll feel it's worth it."

Making money by trading in the prices of goods in different worlds can be very lucrative; you can earn enough for internet access for months or even years with just one meal.

If you have many goals, you can achieve them by working as a middleman for a long time while doing other things.

But Aikawa remained silent, and Liu Yuan understood from his expression.

Liu Yuan patted him on the shoulder and offered his advice: "Since you have your own ideas, go for it! This time, I'll arrange a secluded spot for you all to play and chat together!"

On the other side, Alicia and Kisara also surrounded Mokuhara Shishimi.

It's common for people to fall in love after entering an internet cafe, but it's quite rare for them to be dating or even married before entering one. According to Kisara's recollection, the earliest example seems to be Minato Namikaze, who entered the internet cafe after getting married and having children.

Couples who come in on a special day naturally receive slightly special treatment.
