Huh? Isn't This A Galgame?-Chapter 92 - 89: Summoning the King

Wen Nan’s relentless pressure put the dominant personality of Li Shuyi in extreme inner turmoil—

Her love for her deceased husband did not allow her to accept any other male’s proximity, much less on the anniversary of her husband’s death.

However, the man named Ye Jiu standing before her seemed to possess some kind of magic that deeply attracted her and made it impossible for her to refuse.

Her rational side ordered her to reject him and demand he leave her home, yet her body’s thirst and the secret desires deep within her heart repeatedly indulged his brazen actions.

This tug-of-war made her feel like she was in a whirlpool, confused, wavering, and unable to extricate herself.

Until...

When she turned her head to avoid the man’s scorching gaze, her sight inadvertently fell on a brooch on her deceased husband’s wool coat.

9527: [Attention, target ’voracious neighboring young wife,’ current strategy degree decreased to: -10%!]

The brooch was a gift Li Shuyi had given her husband on their wedding anniversary five years ago—a vintage-style silver bullet encrusted with diamonds.

On the day he received the brooch, her husband had someone engrave [Love Shushu] on the back. After that, no matter the occasion, he always wore it on his coat and would pat his chest with it before leaving, saying to Li Shuyi: "Wife, no matter where I go, you’ll always be in my heart."

Now, Li Shuyi held the brooch tightly in her hand, her fingers touching the blackened bloodstain on it—

Blood from three years ago at the car accident site, her husband’s blood splattered on it...

9527: [Attention, target ’voracious neighboring young wife,’ current strategy degree decreased to: -30%!]

A strangled cry of grief escaped Li Shuyi’s throat.

Immediately, patchy cracks began appearing on her pale face, resembling a wall weathered with age and cracking.

Underneath the cracks, thick dark blood began oozing out, drop by drop.

When she turned her head back to face the man, her eyes no longer held shyness and struggle, only anger and pain remained.

9527: [Attention, target ’voracious neighboring young wife,’ current strategy degree decreased to: -50%!]

9527: [Attention, target ’voracious neighboring young wife,’ current strategy degree decreased to: -70%!]

The speed of decrease in strategy degree was quicker than a dying patient’s blood pressure drop.

Listening to the system’s constantly updating prompts in his head, Wen Nan quickly glanced at the woman on the bed, realizing it was the brooch in her hand causing the trouble.

Reflexively, Wen Nan reached out, intending to take the brooch from her grasp.

However, he failed to seize it, and his action only further enraged the woman before him.

9527: [Attention, target ’voracious neighboring young wife,’ current strategy degree decreased to: -90%!]

A shrill scream came from the woman’s throat, then she abruptly sprang up from the bed like a reanimated corpse.

Her fingertips, nails spiraling at incredible speed, turned into blades, aiming straight for Wen Nan’s chest!

With alertness heightened, Wen Nan quickly rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding her attack.

A level 5 player’s agility of 230 enabled Wen Nan to barely evade the rapidly stabbing claws.

But her speed was too fast, and Wen Nan couldn’t avoid the nick on the corner of his lip, which soon broke open, oozing blood.

Propping himself with one hand on his knee, squatting by the bed, Wen Nan raised his other hand to casually wipe away the blood from his lips.

Even with 230 agility and 230 armor, dealing with Li Shuyi in her rampage state still felt inadequate.

[Safety Bubble] was only effective on targets below four stars, and [Attribute Experience Card] could only enhance attributes by 100 points...

His equipment reserve had plenty of items brought from the trial map, but none useful against an LV.5 instance.

Sigh.

Wen Nan sighed inwardly, reflecting—

Beautiful women, when angry, are truly terrifying.

9527: [Attention, target ’voracious neighboring young wife,’ current strategy degree decreased to: -99%!]

9527: [Attention, target ’voracious neighboring young wife,’ current strategy degree has surpassed the extreme threshold! Currently in a highly dangerous rampage state! Players, please keep a distance!]

Wen Nan’s face darkened as he looked up to see that Li Shuyi, who previously only had transformed nails, now had each inch of her skin sprouting sharp blades all over.

At first glance, she resembled a porcupine.

In the blink of an eye, the "porcupine" was already roaring and charging toward Wen Nan.

While dodging to the other side, Wen Nan clenched a golden control rune in his palm.

Yet, the system’s prompting voice echoed in his mind—

9527: [Sorry, your exclusive character ’Yu Shujun’ has been detected as out of responsive range, unable to summon.]

9527: [Your golden control rune is of the highest rank, granting unrestricted summoning privileges ignoring instance limitations, regardless of distance.]

9527: [Full domain summoning privileges have been activated for you, with information broadcast across the entire game world...]

9527: [Information transmission failed.]

9527: [Apologies, your exclusive character ’Yu Shujun’ has been detected as out of responsive range, unable to summon.]

Wen Nan: ...

What, pal, you went on with such a long explanation just to come back to this?

This little minion sticks close to him all the time, almost stepping on his heels daily, watching from the best spot during drama, watching in high definition, now encountering a problem, would disappear faster than a rabbit?

And...

What does it mean, out of summon range?

This is the highest level of golden rune, even all-domain summoning doesn’t work?

How far could Yu Shujun, a game strategy character, have run? Not receiving even full-band broadcasts? Did they cross over to some different world?

Despite his inner complaints, Wen Nan didn’t dare delay dodging Li Shuyi’s actions.

Li Shuyi’s "porcupine" form was no joke, max damage output, incredibly fast.

This small bedroom was far from enough space for Wen Nan to dodge.

And he couldn’t retaliate—the opponent was rampaging, but still a woman, the woman he’s targeting as strategy, he had principles, couldn’t hit a woman.

Seizing the opportunity, Wen Nan rushed to the bedroom door, trying to leave this dangerous place.

Yet...

Just as his hand touched the doorknob, from the side, a blade flew out, striking directly at the back of Wen Nan’s hand!

Wen Nan tried pulling his hand back at top speed, but it was hopeless.

His retreating hand movement, hopelessly sluggish from the perspective of the opposing housewife, barely gave a chance to dodge.

About to pierce through the hand...

Wen Nan’s mind was left with only this thought.

But at the next moment, a golden light flashed.

The clinking clash of weapons met his ears.

Wen Nan squinted, not yet recovered, when the "porcupine" across had already reverted to normal human form with a scream of agony.

A figure in armor stood in front of Wen Nan, a long sword held horizontally, protecting him.

Wen Nan: ...

What’s going on?

Did he summon Saber?

The golden control rune in his palm glowed with a strange glint.

The system prompt sounded in his head—

9527: [Your golden control rune has been updated, detected new bindable character—Jun Wuming]

9527: [Confirm binding?]

Wen Nan: ?

Jun Wuming?

Who is Jun Wuming?
