Chapter 86: Isn't This a Bit Too Thrilling?
Lu Yurou stepped up to the podium, her face flushed with shyness. After a moment of gathering her courage, she took out her textbook and pointer from her briefcase and began to teach the class.
The atmosphere in the classroom gradually became harmonious. Everyone felt as if they were transported back to the beautiful days of university life before the apocalypse. Outside the window, bright sunshine illuminated the scene. On the green field, many students were playing soccer. Inside the classroom, the teacher was explaining the lesson.
Some students were diligently taking notes, while others leaned on their desks, sleeping off their fatigue from the night's revelries.
On the podium, the figure of the beautiful professor was graceful and captivating. She was strikingly beautiful, noble, and enchantingly fascinating to the male students, like a ripe peach, full of temptation.
Lu Yurou gradually got into the flow of teaching, immersing herself in the nostalgia for the past. Her twisting figure began to move down from the podium.
Alex watched Professor Lu Yurou, the woman of his dreams, coming closer to him. Her noble and gentle figure, her melodious and pleasant voice, she hadn't changed. She was still the noble and beautiful professor. But he was no longer the boy who was too shy to speak to her!
Alex stood up and assertively took hold of Lu Yurou's hand...
...
"Such a lively and wonderful class!" Alex left the classroom feeling somewhat weary. Inside, the classroom was in disarray. "It brought back memories of university life and fulfilled a long-held dream," Alex thought, glancing at Professor Lu Yurou, who was leaning against the podium. Content and with a hint of mischief, he left the scene.
Returning to the dark castle, the cat-eared girl, Lansiruo, had already woken up. She was in a standoff with Keke, who was responsible for guarding her. It seemed that these two mutants, who could be considered similar, didn't get along very well.
As soon as Alex entered the room, Keke hurriedly tattled, "Daddy, this sister with cat ears wants to escape."
"I am not trying to escape!" Lansiruo retorted somewhat angrily, "I just want to save my friends!"
Lansiruo, with her big, watery eyes, looked at Alex and said, "I will repay you for saving my life, but my friends' shelter is now surrounded by a horde of zombies. They are in great danger, and I must go back to save them."
"Your friends?" Alex became curious. Lansiruo had found a shelter and even had friends.
"Yes, they took me in. Our settlement is currently under attack by the zombie horde. Although I led a spider monster away, there's still a pregnant monster there. If it's just them, they definitely can't stand against the zombies," Lansiruo said with determination, "I must go back and fight alongside them."
Alex picked up two new terms from Lansiruo's words: 'zombie horde' and 'pregnant monster.' He was also curious about the settlement Lansiruo mentioned. But what Alex really wanted to know was if Lansiruo still remembered her past.
"Lansiruo, do you really not remember me?" Alex stared into Lansiruo's eyes, seeking an
answer.
Hearing her name, a look of pain flashed across Lansiruo's eyes. But soon, she shook her head and said, "I can't remember. I can't recall anything from the past. Do you know me? Was my name Lansiruo before?"
It was confirmed. Lansiruo had indeed lost her memory. However, her condition was much better than Keke's; at least her intelligence remained within the normal range.
"Yes! You used to study here, and your name is Lansiruo. I am your husband, Alex," Alex said brazenly, "Finding you again truly makes me happy."
"Husband?" A hint of confusion appeared in Lansiruo's eyes, which then cleared as she said, "So that's it! No wonder I felt so familiar with you at first sight! You are my husband!"
Lansiruo quickly believed Alex's tall tale, as she inherently felt a strong sense of familiarity towards Alex. Besides, Alex was her savior.
"Yes! Lansiruo, call me 'husband.' It's been so long since I've heard you say that," Alex continued, coaxing her gently.
"Hus... husband..." Lansiruo shyly uttered, "But... are we really married?"
Though Lansiruo had lost her memory, she still possessed basic common sense. At her age, she reasoned, she shouldn't be married yet...
"We're not officially married yet. We are in love and have pledged ourselves to each other," Alex said nonchalantly, continuing his fabrication without batting an eye.
Lansiruo's cheeks turned red as she murmured, "Oh... I see..."
Alex had initially intended to tease Lansiruo but didn't expect her to believe him completely.
Uh...
Now Alex found himself at a loss for what to do next.
"Husband, I can't stay here with you now. I must go and save our friends. They saved me! They took me in! That's how I've managed to survive until now." Lansiruo looked apologetically at Alex, then stood up with a determined expression.
"I can come with you to save your friends, but you need to tell me about their situation." "Also, what is this zombie horde you mentioned? And what is a 'pregnant monster'?" Saying he was going to save people felt like a tall tale even to Alex himself. He doubted his own words.
If Lansiruo's friends turned out to be beauties, Alex might benevolently bring them back and slowly train them into servants. But if they were a bunch of men and unattractive women, Alex might even resort to underhanded tactics to get rid of them, to avoid worrying Lansiruo later.
Lansiruo was not only the woman Alex loved in the past but also a cat-eared mutant. Such a high-quality woman, Alex naturally wanted to make her his own. Whether for his enjoyment or to strengthen his personal female guard team, Lansiruo was an excellent choice. He was now very curious about the settlement Lansiruo mentioned. What exactly were this 'pregnant monster' and zombie horde? Could they pose a danger to his City of Darkness? "Our settlement was originally very safe, and many people lived there," Lansiruo explained. "Also, there are other mutants like me, including a fox sister, a cow-horned sister, a centaur sister, a snake girl, a gray wolf brother, and a tiger brother."
"They are all mutants, like me."
Hearing this, Alex's eyes lit up with excitement! A cat-eared girl was one thing, but there were also a fox girl, a bull demon woman, a centaur woman, and a snake woman! Wasn't this a
bit too thrilling?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Suddenly, Alex felt a strong desire to visit that shelter!
