Yunyun

Chapter 21: Yunyun

Going to Minato's world was not an option as their enemies would just swarm their latest location. Returning would end up with an instant death or torture, which Minato wanted to avoid.

He also didn't see a bright future should they fall to his world without any return.

Thus, Minato's plight was naturally the giants that had shrunk down.

He avoided as much as he could, but their speed had been raised significantly. It was as if the smaller, the faster.

Minato soon was forced to use one of his hands to protect himself and his wife.

His hand folded into a punch, facing the first real opponent!

BANG!

Their strength looked even, but Minato felt a pain he had never felt before going through his bones and flesh.

He shivered and bit his lips, then distanced himself.

Using this as a chance to have some freedom, Yuna let her husband's body go, "I will help you, Minmin. My strength might be sealed, but the enhanced physical body has its own advantages."

There was a reason why Bei was scared the most.

She relied on her magic circles but conjuring those was currently impossible.

Yuna, however, could exert some of her strength even with countless seals holding her back. That was also why she didn't look as worried as Bei and maintained a blank yet supportive expression for her husband.

From behind, fox tails sprouted, and Yuna let out a punch as well.

Her tails followed her move, and each slammed against the armored existence. Their speed was top-notch, and the giant wasn't ready to properly defend.

That was yet another advantage in Yuna's arsenal, and she utilized it perfectly.

Minato smiled widely, "Let's head further, Yuna!"

"How is your hand, Minmin?" Yuna glanced at him with the same smile.

"I can keep going!" Minato decisively nodded.

The couple began heading toward the deeper end, looking for an answer.

It wasn't a dungeon without countless treasures and rules that allowed both sides to exit.

It was a place akin to the Overlord's Trial!

As the future overlord's wife, Yuna was lending her hand to her husband.

At first, she was optimistic, but the deeper they went, the worse her mood became. She was also a rational lady, so Yuna was getting more worried about their chances behind her cheerful expression.

Alas, Minato's voice had reached her from within!

That was the Mind Whisper!

"Yuna. This place has no end... I don't know what exactly it wants me to do... Kill them all? I could try, but that would exhaust me no end. You also can't see its end, so we should try a different approach," Minato whispered.

His Mind Whisper was weak, but it had become fluent in the predicament.

That was what exactly made people stronger! The harsh and impossible experiences one wouldn't throw themselves into should they know about them beforehand!

Yuna glanced and asked, "What do you have in mind, Minmin?"

"Roleplay! I don't think we should ignore what Aya has told us. She is my spirit, and information appears randomly in her mind... That means we really should play on those armored guys' feelings." Minato explained.

He hadn't even thought seriously about it, as those guys seemed emotionless. Minato also failed to imagine how his words could convince them should they have consciousness.

But should they show their love, a love that their progenitor had missed, then maybe Minato and Yuna would be able to overcome this trial!

Minato's wife laughed through the Mind Whisper, "Minmin... You aren't like Overlord at all. Your spirit is also not overbearing... I believe any future Overlord would try to use their pressure, rune, or strength. They would use their status.

That would be similar to role-playing Overlord Kai," Yuna said.

She added, "You thought about it differently, and that's why I love you. What do you want me to do, Minmin?"

"Well..." After Yuna's words, Minato felt a little awkward, "I thought about you getting a little wounded. It has to be your fox tail or ears... I will get angry and give it my all to kill the armored guy... In this way, we will try to influence them."

Yuna wanted to laugh out loud, but she held herself, "You have my consent, Minmin. What tail should I wound? I have so many~~"

Was it really time for some jesting?

Minato was conflicted for a few seconds.

Their mood had skyrocketed, and it was both due to the new plan and their love.

Of course, the situation urged the couple to not waste any time.

Yuna feigned a gap and let her tail get wounded by the soldier's punch, "Minmin! It hurts so much!" She even cried more than enough.

Minato's heart trembled, "You dare to wound my wife and my fluffy tail, you twat?"

He cursed a little differently than he usually would.

An environment truly changed people!

Minato didn't pay any attention to his words. He just wanted to be more enraged and vulgar, so his words flowed out rather naturally.

However, his heart trembling was a genuine feeling.

That was his fuel.

A fuel that made the whole role-play serious!

BANG!

Minato threw his punch without any magic circle. He just heard his heart trembling, then the loud explosion unfolded before his eyes.

The armored existence shattered into pebbles.

Even Yuna stood surprised, and her eyes expanded.

She rapidly blinked those, awakening from her stupor, "Minmin! You did it! You killed that evil creature for me! I love you so much!"

"Of course, Yunyun," Minato saw other armored existences frozen, so he wrapped his arm around Yuna's waist and whispered to her ear, "I love these too much to see them hurt. Does it still hurt, Yunyun?"

"It doesn't..." Yuna looked down quite shyly as Minato had never used any nickname.

He again said his words based on his emotions, and he didn't regret any of it! His wife became so cute that the whole background paled, and all he saw was her golden eyes and hair.

He caressed her tails, making Yuna forget about the pain.

At last, the voice from the deepest parts swept through the dimension, "You possess part of his rune, but you are different. An Overlord I've never seen before..."

"I am still not an Overlord, though," Minato chuckled.

That voice belonged to the Snake Concubine.

It didn't triumph over Yuna's shy voice, but it still left some impact on Minato.

He had seen a few beautiful ladies around Ungrail City. Any man could pursue them all, and no one would find that surprising. No one would look down on that man, and they would take it as normal.

Of course, man's strength also was necessary.

Overlords with immense strength would establish harems easier than others. It was easy to understand, but Minato somehow understood it better after hearing a little of the concubine's words.

Harem was quite complicated until it wasn't!

Minato felt like his common sense took a significant shift, but he didn't have enough time to contemplate it as the blinding light appeared from the side.

It was another spatial crack, and it increased the concubine's words, "I invite you to my chamber."

There was no other route, so the couple stepped in.

Bei was also outside already now that the situation had calmed down.

Minato felt like it was natural to let her out.

And that was a grave mistake.
