Discredit

Ye Sato held Miyamoto Rei by her waist, very intimate, as he walked towards Komuro Takashi.

She has given up the idea of struggling since she couldn't break away from his grasp and she felt very safe in his embrace.

Observing she wasn't resisting, he smiled inside his heart.

While walking past Igou Hisashi's corpse, he took the opportunity to touch the corpse with his foot.

[Drop: [Karate: Lv3], [Power]+1, [Corpse Coin]+1]

Having reached the barricade, he saw Takashi peeling off tapes that kept a couple of chairs together.

Looking at his action, Sato knew Takashi was just trying to delay time for Miyamoto Rei to come and stop him.

Komuro Takashi could have just used the chairs as support, to climb on the barricade, but he didn't do it.

And he will of course not let this opportunity to slander Takashi go.

"Komuro-kun, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to break the barricade and let the zombies in and eat us? If you want to smash some head, can't you just climb over the barricade? There's enough space for you." Ye Sato inquired, but he felt this wasn't enough to discredit him, so he asked a few more questions with a slightly mocking voice, "Or do you want to delay time for us to come and stop you? If you don't want to smash some head, then don't do it, you don't need to force yourself."

Miyamoto Rei also felt what he said was reasonable.

If Ye Sato wasn't here, then she would have probably panicked and tried to stop him. But listening to what he said, she felt no worries and the image of Komuro Takashi in her mind slowly changed.

Komuro Takashi who was once selfless and kind suddenly turned into a coward and sly person, which completely disappointed her. But for their old friendship, she still tried to persuade him, "Takashi, if you can't do it then don't. No one here will force you."

"Yeh, Komura-kun, if 'you can't do it', then don't force yourself," Ye Sato hinted at something which only those who have a very dirty mind will understand.

Not only can he show he is an upright person, but he can also provoke Komuro Takashi silently.

A perfect calculation.

And it looks like Komuro Takashi really has a dirty mind, since listening to Ye Sato, his face suddenly turned resentful.

"Shut up! 'I can do it'!" He shouted furiously.

"You don't need to get angry at 'us', 'we' just thought for your safety," said Sato, emphasizing the word "us" and "we".

Ye Sato is now trying to imply that he and Miyamoto Rei are a pair. And his intention didn't go wrong.

Komuro Takashi's face looked like he wanted to eat him alive.

If gaze could kill, then Takashi would have tried to kill him a hundred times.

"Why are you angry at us? We were just concerned about you," said Rei as she looked at the ugly Komuro Takashi.

Listening to the word "us" and "we" made him insane.

He really wanted to just jump over the fence and smash some heads, but he knows his ending won't be good if he did it.

Komuro Takashi's plan was exactly what Ye Sato said.

He never intended to smash some head. But being exposed by Ye Sato with no way to walk back. The only thing he could do is stand there frozen watching the two of them flirting.

He swallowed his anger and thought if Miyamoto Rei wasn't here, then he would give Ye Sato a taste of his mighty bat.

The reason Sato dared to provoke Takashi, without fearing he will go crazy and attack, is because the zombie apocalypse has just begun.

People are still reserved about what they can do and what they can't do.

Another reason is that Rei is in his embrace, which prevents Takashi from attacking.

Yep, he's an evil villain.

Using a heartbroken girl as a shield.

What a perfect and promising villain.

This is a perfect example of a villain. But this is only external help. He can't depend on it. Who knows if an accident happens.

So the only thing you can trust is your own strength. Which in this case is his touch corpse system.

He already made a plan on getting stronger.

When they break out and join the other members, there will be a lot of zombies killed and he can take the opportunity to touch the corpses.

The mood is completely silent, the only thing you can hear is the noises from zombies. But just when things were about to get awkward, he decided to break it.

"Ok, Komuro-kun, leave the things about smashing heads aside and calm down. I have some food and drink with me. Let's rest first, before thinking about anything else," Sato said as he walked with Rei to where he left his backpack.

Looking at the back of those two, Takashi couldn't help feeling distressed.

The one who should be beside her right now, the one who should be holding her right, should have been him—Komuro Takashi!

He gave up on his smashing head plan and followed the two.

He already embarrassed himself enough in front of the one he loved and can't keep on doing it.

Sato found his backpack and released her, as they sat down on the floor. If he keeps on holding her, then she will probably develop a negative feeling for him.

When she was mentally unstable, he could still take advantage of her, but now that she is slowly calming down, it's now a good idea to keep holding her.

"Here, have some," he said, as he gave Rei and Takashi a bottle of water and sandwich.

"Thank you," said Rei and she showed her courtesy.

Komuro Takashi on the other hand just keeps quiet when he receives the water and sandwich.

Well, you can't really blame him.

If he was in a Takashi situation, then he would have gone crazy years ago.

As for courtesy?

Haha, they should be thankful if he didn't give them a few slaps in the face, don't even talk about courtesy.

So if we compare him and the Komuro Takashi, you can see the difference between a villain and a hero.

"Alright, eat, drink, and take a rest. We will then plan our next step," he said.

"Ye-san, me and Takashi know each other, can you tell us about yourself?" asked Rei while she took a bite of a sandwich.

She's interested in me.

Ohh, what a nostalgic thought. Don't you guys agree?

It always starts with "I think she's interested in me" or "I think he's interested in me". In the end, it will still end with "I see you as a friend".

"Well, my parents are dead, I am a homeless man. That's like the whole story of my life," he answered blandly.

"..." She was completely stunned.

Rei felt like she just stepped on a landmine by asking Sato about himself.

Of all things she imagined he would say, she didn't expect him to say this.

It's like when you open presents on Christmas. You feel excited all over, guessing what's inside. Finally when you open it, what you find is toilet paper.

"You don't need to feel embarrassed or care about it, since I don't care," said Ye Sato.

Even though he said she didn't need to care, Rei still felt a little embarrassed.

She had a very good impression of Ye Sato. He was kind, honest, reliable, and most important of all—he cares about her.

When she was at her weakest point and needed help and protection, he was the one who came forward. He held her tightly to make her feel safe and keep her in accompaniment until she felt better.

Miyamoto Rei has already begun to fall for him without her knowing.

Unknown to Miyamoto Rei's feelings for him, Ye Sato was silently thinking, 'On that day, when I descended into this anime world, I plotted against the main character, and humiliated him in front of the woman he loved for the first time.'
