As the celebration ended, everyone returned to their usual work, for example… "Three!"
"No."
"Did I say three?"
"I said, no!"
"Huh? You can't even afford a three, A Chen, what cards do you even have left in your hand?!"
Rimuru looked at Zhong Chen, who couldn't even afford a three, with a shocked expression.
"Hehe, my apologies, just a small fry! My humble thanks, my humble thanks."
Zhong Chen proudly revealed his last card.
"A Chen, you're on my side, what are you thanking for?!"
"A two, I'm out! Hahahaha, money, money!"
Milim, who had just finished her hand, excitedly held out both hands to Zhong Chen and Rimuru.
"Damn it, if I lose any more, I'll be out of money!"
Rimuru, with a look of indignation, took a 50 lime coins note from his Slime wallet and handed it to Milim.
"As if I still have money, my allowance is almost all gone!"
Zhong Chen also took out his last 50 lime coins note from his wallet with a long face.
"Hehe, a great harvest, a great harvest! Now I have money to buy snacks again!"
Milim, beaming with joy, took the money and carefully placed it in her small wallet.
By the way, Milim's wallet was handmade by Sakuya, so she cherished it especially.
"A Chen, are you possessed by a god of misfortune? Why do we always lose when I'm on your team?"
"This…"
Zhong Chen heard Rimuru's words, thought about it carefully, and felt that he must have been cursed.
After all, he also lost everything at the pinball arcade, and when playing cards, he always ended up with a bunch of low cards.
"Hmm! That's right, I'm cursed."
"Host, is there a possibility that you're just simply bad?"
"What are you saying, what are you saying? How could I, a dignified Golden Immortal, not be able to win at fighting landlords?!"
"Host, whether you are a Golden Immortal or not should have no necessary connection to you being bad at cards! Unless you cheat with magic power!"
"…"
Zhong Chen, whose brutal truth was exposed by the System, indicated that he needed to be quiet.
Don't ask me who Jingjing is, Jingjing is working hard in the Chairwoman's office.
"A Chen, still playing?"
Looking at Milim, whose face was full of innocent smiles, Zhong Chen spoke weakly:
"No more, this month's allowance has all been lost to you."
"I'm going to the New World to seek comfort…"
As he finished speaking, a white Dimensional Gate appeared behind Zhong Chen.
"Ah!!! A Chen, are you going already?"
"If not now, when?!"
With that, Zhong Chen grabbed Rimuru with his left hand and Milim with his right, rushing into the Dimensional Gate, and Sakuya, seeing this, also hurried in after them.
Komaou Town, Morning
"Is this the New World? It feels no different from the Monster Country Federation!"
Rimuru looked at the surrounding modern buildings and asked with a surprised expression.
"There is a difference, the Monster Country Federation is much more advanced than here."
Zhong Chen heard Rimuru's words and said with a smile.
"Oh World, just wait for me, Demon Lord Milim, to conquer you! Hahahaha!"
"Milim, you really shouldn't say that, this world also has Demon Lords, you know."
Zhong Chen thought of the four leaders of the devils in this world and said to Milim with a teasing expression.
"Really? This world actually has Demon Lords too, are they all as strong as Guy?"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Milim's eyes instantly lit up, and she asked Zhong Chen loudly.
"This world probably doesn't have anyone stronger than Guy."
Zhong Chen thought for a moment and then shook his head, saying that although this world later had some evil god invasions, it still happened within this universe.
Guy, as a World Mediator, at least has the power to destroy a star, so he should be an invincible existence in this world.
"Ah! Are the Demon Lords here all so weak?"
"No, you're just too strong, alright? Even in the original world, besides Guy and Ramiris, didn't other Demon Lords also lose to you?"
"Mmm mmm… that seems to make some sense."
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Milim tilted her head, thought carefully, and then nodded in agreement.
"Alright, let's go, I'll take you two to find the female protagonist of this world."
With that, the figures of Zhong Chen and the other three instantly disappeared from their spot, reappearing at the entrance of Komaou Academy.
"This is it, let's go in."
As he finished speaking, Zhong Chen led the three girls, ignoring the security guard at the entrance, and walked directly into the campus.
"Wow, how youthful! A school full of girls is truly captivating, isn't it?"
Zhong Chen looked at the group of female students in uniforms, revealing their long legs, and his face was full of longing.
"Master, in Lashara's world, you have already seen such a scene."
Sakuya, who had been following behind Zhong Chen, spoke directly when she heard Zhong Chen's words.
"That's different, these are proper high school girls! The girls in that world were all like wolves and tigers, I was scared just looking at them!"
Zhong Chen thought of the girls in the Seikishi story world and shook his head in disagreement.
And Rimuru, standing beside him, heard this and immediately showed a sinister expression, speaking in a deliberately low tone:
"A Chen, you like high school girls so much, be careful of the hatchet!"
"Oh Rimuru, you even know Makoto?"
"Hmph hmph, I'm a seasoned otaku, you know!"
"Hahaha, don't worry, I'm just looking. Rimuru, look, how beautiful this scenery is."
Zhong Chen stated that he was a normal man; what normal man wouldn't take a second look at beautiful, youthful girls.
But at most, it was just looking and flirting; if it came to actually making a move, he'd rather not.
After all, these students really couldn't compare to Rimuru and the other two girls.
"Wow, it truly is a wonderful sight, A Chen, Good Job!"
Rimuru followed the direction of Zhong Chen's finger and saw a group of girls in tennis outfits sweating on the court.
His eyes instantly lit up, staring intently, and he couldn't help but give Zhong Chen a thumbs-up with his right hand.
"A Chen, Rimuru, where's the beautiful scenery? I want to see it too!"
"There!"
Milim followed their gaze and only saw a group of girls, not finding any beautiful scenery.
She couldn't help but ask in confusion:
"Where's the beautiful scenery? Why can't I find it?!"
"Oh Milim, when you grow up, you'll naturally be able to see it."
Zhong Chen explained to Milim with an expression that said, 'you're still young and don't understand anything'.
"Grow up? But I'm already…"
Before Milim could finish speaking, a female voice suddenly came from behind the four:
"Hey! You Guys, why aren't you wearing school uniforms? Don't you know that's against school rules?"
Hearing the voice, Zhong Chen and the others all turned around to look at its source.
They saw a beautiful girl with long black hair and glasses looking at them seriously.
Zhong Chen recognized the girl in front of him at a glance and murmured softly:
"Shinra Tsubaki, huh…"
