Nancy originally intended to save Sherry. After all, this character in the original story was a thoroughly tragic figure, whose only role was to awaken the protagonist, Su Xiaoyu, with her death.
When playing games before, Nancy didn’t feel much, as she was just cannon fodder. However, when that innocent girl appeared in front of her, Nancy empathized with her sorrow.
However, what Nancy didn’t expect was that after she took the initiative to contact Sherry, the system didn’t issue any missions related to her.
After weighing it in her mind, Nancy decided to temporarily set aside Sherry’s matter. After all, the tragedy of this character had not yet unfolded, and it didn’t make much practical sense to save her now.
It’s better to go make some money for now… After all, sympathy doesn’t put food on the table.
………………
Tianshou City, Roland High School East Gate.
Today is Friday, commonly known as the end of the school week.
On this day, even students who usually stay at school would go home to see their families after a week of separation.
At this moment, in the tide of students leaving Roland High School, there was a group of people who stood out.
At the forefront was a handsome young man with a pair of cat ears, and beside him were four beautiful girls who were top-notch both in figure and appearance.
Moreover, these four beautiful girls seemed to have a good relationship with the young man, which made many passing male students at Roland High School feel envy and jealousy.
“Brother, I won’t participate in your actions today. Master asked me to come earlier today to teach me some techniques for advancing to intermediate demon slayer.” Beside the young man, a long-haired girl with a pair of white cat ears said to him.
“Then you should go. Say hello to Master Wang for me, and don’t forget to pick up the express delivery.” Su Xiaoyu nodded without objection.
Yes, this young man is the protagonist Su Xiaoyu, and the girl who just spoke with him is his sister, Su Ranran, who is also a cat clan girl and a demon slayer.
And the other three girls beside him…
After looking at the specific appearance of those three figures, Nancy, who was secretly holding a telescope outside the school gate, paused slightly in her actions.
Except for Su Ranran, the sister who was doomed to not have a dramatic storyline, the other three girls beside Su Xiaoyu at this moment were all harem characters from the original story.
Wow, hasn’t the plot just begun? How come the harem is already actively offering itself? Nancy began to doubt whether this world could be saved.
Now it seemed very apparent that this world was just a cliché game world revolving around the protagonist!
【Now, don’t be discouraged. Since I’ve turned into this form along with you, there must be a possibility of change in this world.】 Candy comforted as usual.
Nancy did not respond to the girl in her mind. She picked up the telescope again and began to observe the other three girls.
Just now, Nancy had said that these three girls were all harem characters from the original game plot.
The first one was Sylvia Su, whom Nancy had just rescued from Lily a few days ago. This girl, who shared the same surname as Su Xiaoyu but belonged to a different clan, was the first harem character to appear in the original story. At this moment, Nancy was not surprised by her appearance.
As for the second one… Nancy adjusted the angle of the telescope and frowned involuntarily.
Apart from Su Ranran, the second girl standing beside Su Xiaoyu at this moment was none other than the original owner’s younger sister, Nina.
As for the third girl, it didn’t matter anymore. At this moment, Nancy’s attention was completely drawn to Nina.
“What’s going on? How did Nina meet the protagonist so quickly?” Nancy frowned and sighed.
Although she wanted Nina to meet the protagonist, she didn’t expect it to happen so quickly, catching Nancy off guard.
“Meeting so soon… I wonder if it will affect my mission,” Nancy muttered.
Thinking about it, Nancy glanced at the scene through her telescope once again. Fortunately, even though this was a world derived from a romance game, the world’s will didn’t make the female characters blindly fall for Su Xiaoyu.
At this moment, apart from Su Ranran, the protagonist’s sister, Nancy could see that the attitudes of the other three girls towards Su Xiaoyu, including Nina, seemed quite normal. Their relationship at the moment should be nothing more than friends.
Nancy nodded in satisfaction.
After all, her mission was related to the heroines. If they fell for the protagonist too quickly, Nancy would have a hard time.
But speaking of the mission… Nancy frowned again and picked up her telescope once more.
Where’s Sherry? Is Sherry not here?
There was no sign of Sherry by Su Xiaoyu’s side, and the fourth girl wasn’t Sherry either, which surprised Nancy.
Although Sherry was merely a tool used to awaken the protagonist Su Xiaoyu in the original story, she was also the first supporting character to fall in love with him. So, since Sylvia and Nina had appeared by Su Xiaoyu’s side, there was no reason for Sherry not to appear.
Yes, Nancy didn’t come to Roland High School gate today to pick up her sister from school. She came to check on Sherry’s situation to assess the plot.
The first heroine’s route in the original work was Nina’s. Now, her arrival has eliminated Nina’s storyline, leaving only Sherry’s route to follow.
The beginning of Sherry’s route involves her experiencing school violence and then falling into depression. Nancy is here to catch the beginning of this storyline.
After using the telescope to observe the surroundings once again, Nancy finally spotted a blue-haired girl walking alone at the end of the group.
Hmm… There were no signs of assault on her body, and she even had a slight smile on her face. She must have met Su Xiaoyu today. Anyway, there was no school violence, and Nancy hadn’t received any missions, so there was nothing concerning Sherry at the moment.
Seeing that Sherry was fine, Nancy let out a soft sigh and, after lamenting the difficulties of being a mission accomplisher, decided to turn and leave.
After all, as mentioned, she came for Sherry, and since her situation seemed calm for now, Nancy naturally intended to leave. As for Nina? As stated earlier, Nancy didn’t come this time to pick her up from school.
Moreover… considering Nina’s behavior of staying in the school dorm for a week, she probably didn’t want to see Nancy either?
However, just as Nancy was about to leave after casually handing the telescope to the nearby Hattori, she noticed Su Xiaoyu’s group heading straight towards her.
Nancy: Excuse me ?
“Nina, look, isn’t that your sister?” Sharp-eyed Su Ranran spotted Nancy, dressed in a black hoodie with a hood, as soon as she left the school gate. Despite wearing a hood, her beautiful snow-white hair was still too conspicuous.
Su Ranran’s shout not only stopped Nancy, who was about to leave, but also caught the attention of Nina, Su Xiaoyu, and others who were lost in thought.
Sylvia was slightly stunned when she saw Nancy, recalling that it was Nancy who saved her that night.
As for Su Xiaoyu, he looked at Nancy with a face full of suspicion. Didn’t Nina say that her sister treated her very poorly? Looking at her now, she didn’t seem like it at all. Wasn’t she here to pick her up from school?
As for Nin at this moment… her feelings were self-evident. She was completely bewildered.
Her sister… here to pick her up from school?
Impossible, right? How could this villain be so kind?
Although she had such thoughts in her mind, there was still a hint of complex emotions flashing in Nina’s eyes. After thinking for a moment, she still walked towards Nancy.
Since her sister came to pick her up from school, she couldn’t just leave like this… huh?
What Nina didn’t expect was that when Nancy noticed someone approaching, she just glanced at her and then turned and left without looking back.
Upon seeing the situation, Nina froze where she stood. Then, as she realized what was happening, she instinctively shouted, “Wait… wait!”
Nancy stopped in her tracks and turned back to look at her with a puzzled expression.
“What… what are you doing here?” Nina asked nervously, but her heart was hoping for an answer.
“…What am I doing here?” Nancy frowned at the question, glanced at Hattori standing silently beside her, then turned to Nina and the others who followed, “I came to see someone, is there a problem?”
Wait a minute! Of course, there’s a problem! Other than her, who else would Nancy come to Roland High School to see?
Is it Jenna? But Jenna didn’t come to school today. Nina wanted to ask, but looking at Nancy’s expression, which didn’t seem deceptive, she felt unable to ask.
“Alright,” Nancy looked at the stunned Nina, raised an eyebrow, completely ignoring the protagonist behind Nina, “You’re not going home this week, are you? I’ll leave since there’s nothing urgent.”
After Nancy finished speaking, she took Hattori and left, not giving Nina a chance to respond.
No… no way…
Just now, Nina thought her sister had a change of heart and wanted to be kind to her, but now she felt infinite grievance. She didn’t know what she had done wrong. Why would her sister treat her like this?
She… she clearly wanted to go home this week…
