"...The [walking corpse] and that guy's aura have both disappeared..."

From the seat at the very top, the figure in black robes suddenly spoke, causing a slight commotion below.

"That 'disqualified person,' is he/she already dead?"

"Wait, since their auras have all disappeared, could it be that they perished together?"

"To die together? Perhaps that's a possibility..."

"..."

While the many black-robed figures below were speculating, the figure above merely glanced at them and slowly spoke, "The [Disqualified Ones] did not die; on the contrary, the [Walking Corpses] were defeated by them!"

As soon as the words were spoken, although the idea flashed through the minds of some of the black-robed figures, a hint of surprise still flickered in those pairs of red eyes.

In their minds, even though the [Walking Corpse] was only at the R rank, the rank challenge it recently launched was decades ago. Back then, the [Walking Corpse] was already able to defeat its predecessor with overwhelming force. After so many years, its strength must have improved even more terrifyingly, and it might even be qualified to advance further!

However, this very person, whom most of the members also feared, died quietly in Tokyo, which they found utterly unbelievable.

Strangely, every one of the black-robed figures seemed to have complete trust in the leader, and after he announced the death of the "walker," they did not raise any questions. This seemed to be a common occurrence within the Illuminati.

Just then, a man in black robes stood up and bowed slightly to the figure at the head of the table, saying, "Let me go and meet them. Any enemy who attempts to overthrow the rule of the Illuminati will be punished!"

As he spoke, a long tongue extended from his mouth, the tip of which split into two sides, like a snake's tongue, revealing an unprecedentedly cold killing intent!

Judging from the glint in the eyes of the black-robed figures around them, they seemed to be somewhat wary of this member. However, after the next black-robed figure stood up, they suddenly trembled, and their gazes toward him were filled with terror.

In particular, the black-robed figure with the forked tongue flicking out spoke slowly and with a shocked tone, "My lord, you wouldn't be preparing..."

There was no answer, no sound, only a silent nod, which instantly stirred up a terrifying "storm" in this already turbulent space!

……

Chapter 124, Part 125: Please don't move...

Xia Mu and the others were unaware that after the death of the [Walking Dead], the Illuminati took new actions.

After the battle, he immediately took Sayuri and Shiroshima to repair the house. After a day of hard work, they finally managed to completely repair the damaged parts.

Of course, the reason they were able to achieve such rapid progress is also largely due to their improved physical fitness.

Like Sayuri, even without transforming into her Holy Light form, she can easily lift a weight of nearly 100 pounds with one hand. In the past, this would have been unimaginable. The same goes for Shiroshima.

It seems that after their [sacred artifacts] underwent another enhancement, the physical enhancement was more pronounced than before.

If the two girls were like this, then Xia Mu was even more capable. He found that he could quickly learn some more difficult things, such as simple house repairs. After a little research, he was able to carry out the work quite smoothly.

Furthermore, to ensure stability, he reinforced the damaged areas, so that even if another earthquake of magnitude six or seven were to occur, it might not pose a significant problem.

It should be added that, except for certain enemy attacks, the only way to deal with that level of destruction is to build buildings into structures similar to air-raid shelters, which might be of some use; otherwise, the result will be the same.

During the house repairs, Rika and Mikiko also woke up from their coma and wanted to join in, but Natsuki sternly refused.

After all, although the two were no longer seriously injured, the final barrier yesterday had exhausted their physical strength, and Mikiko was just an ordinary person, so Natsuki naturally wouldn't let them take risks easily.

So, at Natsuki's insistence, Rika and Mikiko had no choice but to stay obediently in the house, but they would occasionally bring the three of them tea and water, and even thoughtfully wipe their sweat.

Because it was summer, the group was dressed quite lightly, and as their sweat was being wiped away, Xia Mu even caught glimpses of the skin that was vaguely visible.

Especially Mikiko, whose charming and sexy aura as a married woman was overwhelming, and her soft-spoken greetings gave Natsuki an indescribable experience.

"Teacher Xia Mu, what's wrong?"

When Mikiko's voice reached his ears, Natsuki seemed to only then realize what was happening. He coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment and said, "It's nothing, I guess I did use up a lot of energy today."

"That won't do, Ms. Natsuki!"

A girl with pigtails handed over most of a watermelon, hands on her hips, and continued, "The body is the foundation of the future, after all, she's Sayuri..."

There's a murderous aura about him!

Halfway through her sentence, Sayuri met Natsuki's gaze, and quickly changed her tune: "Anyway, Natsuki-sensei, please eat more. This is a premium watermelon that my mother bought from the biggest supermarket in Tokyo. It's so sweet!"

Seeing the watermelon the girl offered him and the flattering smile on her face, Xia Mu finally withdrew his "stern" gaze. However, after taking a bite of the watermelon, his brows still furrowed slightly.

What kind of premium watermelon is this? It has almost no flavor after one bite. Although I put it in the refrigerator to freeze it beforehand, it only brings a slightly icy and cool taste. Compared to the crisp, sweet watermelons from my own country in the last century, it is still far inferior.

Indeed, when it comes to quality alone, watermelons grown in China are definitely better!

Of course, seeing Sayuri and the others enjoying their food, Natsuki didn't voice her thoughts. She just thought that when she had time, she would take a trip to China in this world and bring back some watermelons so that they could taste what a truly delicious watermelon is like!

Come to think of it, since being reborn in Tokyo, he hasn't actually been to that Chinese country yet...

While he was lost in thought, Sayuri was eating watermelon and complaining, "That awful bad guy, coming to my house like that! I was supposed to have a nice weekend, but this is really..."

As she spoke, she suddenly sensed that something was off. As if remembering something, she turned her head and saw Mikiko looking dazed. She quickly waved her hand and began to explain.

"I'm sorry, Mother, Sayuri didn't mean to bring this up. Please forgive me..."

She seemed to have forgotten that Mikiko did not possess holy light like them, which could minimize her fear of ghosts. Moreover, last night's events were so terrifying that even if Mikiko was strong, how could she forget such a thing in just one day?

Mikiko smiled calmly and said to the group, "Excuse me, I just remembered that the clothes on the balcony haven't been taken in yet. Please allow me to leave for a moment."

"The clothes on the balcony? Weren't they already..."

Seeing Mikiko stand up and walk towards the balcony, Sayuri wanted to say something, but Shirashima and Rika covered her mouth together, so she could only make "woo woo woo" sounds.

Xia Mu sighed, gave her a speechless look, but didn't say anything.

Although Sayuri's "chuunibyou" remarks can sometimes have a surprising effect, she is ultimately just a minor and may not yet have the same keen perception as adults, so such behavior is quite normal.

And when things get to this point, it's time for the school counselor to step in, since, in a sense, the students' parents are also part of her service...

"You guys eat, I'm going out for a bit."

Xia Mu gave a word of advice, then stood up and walked towards the balcony. A "whoosh" sound rang out again, and only the three girls remained in the room.

Feeling the two reproachful gazes, Sayuri turned her head away and muttered softly, "How could they possibly know so much about something like this..."

On the other side, when Xia Mu arrived at the balcony, she saw a voluptuous figure with her back to her. Her hands were intertwined, and with Xia Mu's current vision, she could even clearly see that the other person's body was trembling slightly.

Mikiko is...

Xia Mu's gaze was complicated. Although he hesitated for a moment, he spoke again: "Madam, if you need anything, I can actually help you..."

Before he could finish speaking, the other person suddenly turned around, and to Natsuki's surprise, Mikiko threw herself into his arms. When he finally realized what was happening, he heard Mikiko sobbing softly in his arms.

"Teacher Xia Mu, please don't move, just hold me like this, okay..."

……

Chapter 125 Mikiko's Intentions

"Teacher Xia Mu, please don't move, just hold me like this, okay?"

Mikiko's words echoed in his ears, a strand of hair drifted to his nose, and the scent of the married woman mixed with some kind of shampoo, along with the soft body in his arms, made Natsuki freeze on the spot.

When the sound of sobbing came, Xia Mu, who had still retained some rationality, could only sigh inwardly at the sight.

He didn't refuse; he simply raised one arm to hug her and placed the other hand on Mikiko's back, gently patting it.

This heartwarming scene was witnessed by a girl with pigtails who was about to come to the balcony. Her pink lips parted slightly, and she never imagined that her respected mother would be embracing the man she loved!

Whoosh!

She instinctively closed the balcony window, her chest heaving rapidly, and she was breathing heavily. Shirashima and Rika looked puzzled, but after exchanging glances, they seemed to see the same thought in each other's eyes.

What's wrong with Sayuri?

Xia Mu was unaware that, just seconds earlier, a girl had witnessed him embracing the girl's mother. He was simply fulfilling his duty as a counselor, trying his best to soothe the student's parents' complex emotions at that moment.

Finally, after a lot of comforting, Mikiko's sobs gradually subsided, and her body, which was holding Natsuki, stopped trembling. In fact, due to the impact of the man's hormones, a faint pink flush appeared on Mikiko's skin.

What's wrong with me...?

With her head buried deep in the man's chest, Mikiko felt her heart beating much faster than usual.

What's even stranger is that, despite the cicadas chirping all around, she felt as if she and Xia Mu were the only two people left in this small world. She could almost hear the equally unmistakable heartbeat coming from the man's chest.

At first, she was still shaken by what happened last night. Even though she tried to remain calm, her emotions were far from peaceful. It wasn't until Sayuri brought it up again that her hard-won composure was disrupted, and she couldn't help but come to the balcony, wanting to find a quiet place to stay, just like she always does.

To her surprise, Xia Mu suddenly appeared beside her. Even more unexpectedly, upon hearing the man's caring words, her emotions erupted, and she couldn't help but throw herself into his arms, wanting only to soothe her turbulent emotions with his chest.

However, upon realizing her current situation, she had a strange feeling that the man's chest seemed to possess a magical power, constantly attracting her and making it impossible for her to easily break free from his embrace.

Mikiko, please regain your senses! Natsuki... he's Sayuri's teacher, and your friend's son! How can you lose control of yourself like this? Wake up!

At this moment, the young woman's mind was filled with words trying to awaken her. As the man gently patted her, Mikiko felt her body sinking deeper and deeper into pleasure. A blush gradually rose to her cheeks, making her wish she could find a place to hide so that the man wouldn't notice her strangeness.

For some reason, Mikiko's body also felt strange, a stirring rising within her, especially the strong scent of the man near her nose, which made her sink even deeper into desire.

Could it be that the reason I've become like this is because...

She seemed to remember something and finally regained some of her senses. She quickly broke free from the man's embrace, but her rapid breathing and heaving chest betrayed her true feelings.

"Mikiko, are you alright?"

If it were any other woman, Natsuki might have been able to understand the reason for her reaction. However, the woman was her mother's friend, and given Mikiko's usual maturity, Natsuki couldn't think of anything else for the moment.

Although he also felt intense stimulation when he was holding Mikiko just now, compared to Mai, the other's body seemed more supple, and especially under the influence of the faint fragrance, he was also somewhat subdued.

In addition, Mikiko's figure is indeed quite amazing. To him, it's like Sayuri after reaching the maximum level, or even a super promax version. It's the first time that Natsuki has experienced the indescribable temptation of the married woman in front of him!

Even in the past, Natsuki and Mikiko had had "intimate contact" many times, but it was always just a brief encounter. It was never like now, with only a thin piece of clothing between them. If he lifted that clothing, he could even clearly touch Mikiko's unusually voluptuous body...

Come to think of it, even after all these years, Mikiko doesn't seem to have changed much; in fact, she seems to have become more and more charming over time.

In my memory, although Mikiko was Sayuri's mother, she was only in her early thirties because she got married early. In her childhood, I even chased after Mikiko, wanting her to be my bride.

That never-give-up attitude is so similar to Sayuri's now...

Damn it, Xia Mu, what are you thinking? Calm down!

Natsuki cursed himself inwardly. Mikiko, finally recovering, looked up at Natsuki, her expression unusually girlish: "Thank you, Natsuki-sensei. I just hadn't quite recovered yet, that's why..."

As she spoke, she bent down and said earnestly again, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble!"

As a result, because of their respective postures, when Mikiko bent over, that breathtakingly white skin and the alluring abyss were exposed to Natsuki's eyes.

Recalling the enchanting scene just now, he could clearly feel something slowly sprouting within him...

"Ahem, it's nothing. I saw that Madam looked a little worried just now, so I couldn't help but come and check on her. It's my duty to be able to help Madam."

"Is it just an obligation?"
