Chapter 162 - The Destined Protagonist
🕑 Added 2024-11-05 07:00:11 +0000 UTC"Huh? Show off? What thing do you want to show off? Are you handsome?" Leyvi asked. He had no idea if Mr. Bison was considered ugly or handsome in the bison world.
"Come on, boss. I am considered the most handsome bison in the history of all bison. What do you know?" Mr. Bison bragged.
"Then why did they chase you out? Che, handsome my ass. Even I don't dare to call myself handsome." Leyvi was extremely skeptical. This goofy bison was the most handsome? Nah, not a chance.
"What the heck, boss? Those are separate matters. Just bring me down already!" Mr. Bison didn't want to argue.
"Fine, fine. Let's go!" Leyvi lifted Mr. Bison by grabbing his horns and descended from the airship.
"Ouch! Ouch! Boss! My neck's going to break! Adjust the angle! Adjust the angle!" Mr. Bison was fighting for his life.
After they got down, Leyvi followed Mr. Bison from behind as they approached the herd.
When Leyvi and Mr. Bison were near enough, the five female demonic bison noticed them and were immediately alerted. They enlarged multiple times their current sizes and started intimidating the approachers with deafening snorts and grunts.
However, Mr. Bison didn't care and kept approaching them as he grew bigger too, matching their size.
"Grathul! It's you! I didn't expect that you are still alive! I thought some other demonic beast killed you while injured." The leader of the demonic bison said with a thunderous grunt after she recognized Mr. Bison.
Leyvi listened from behind. Grathul? Is that Mr. Bison's real name? He didn't know that.
"Graalkira, you don't know that a main protagonist has a lot of plot armor. They always get heaven-defying opportunities out of nowhere and come back much stronger." Mr. Bison acted cool.
Huh? What is this bison talking about? Did he lose his mind after getting chased out by us? The female demonic bison were confused and looked at each other.
Leyvi felt confused as well. Why did he suddenly talk about a common cultivation novel setting?
"Hahaha. I'm saying that I am that protagonist! My plot armor is as thick as my hide, so I survived, and I obtained a heaven-defying power that I could easily trample you any time I wanted!" Mr. Bison was getting more and more delusional.
Leyvi almost fainted when he heard that. When did his spirit beast develop a main-character syndrome? Leyvi remembered that Sayu always bought many kinds of novels and read them to his spirit beasts while she had nothing to do. Aside from romance novels, she was also an avid reader of cultivation novels. He didn't expect that Mr. Bison would think of himself as the protagonist because of some similar circumstances.
Snort, snort, snort.
"Hahaha. I see, looks like the head injury you received in the past had caused you to become crazy. He even brought a puny human here. What a pity. You were regarded as the most handsome bison in our history. Now, you are just the most retarded bison." Graalkira mocked Mr. Bison.
What the heck? What did I just hear? Mr. Bison is what? The most handsome bison? He was speaking the truth? No, no, no. It can't be. My Universal Language must have had a mistranslation. That must be it.
Leyvi convinced himself that it was a translation issue. He would never believe that Mr. Bison is the most handsome bison ever.
"I'm crazy? You can try. Come ram me. I won't do anything. All five of you can come together. Graalkira, Thuriska, Vorrilsa, Druliva, Nokhila, come." Mr. Bison provoked them by calling each of their names.
Leyvi just watched. He didn't plan to interfere.
Grunt!
"Hmph! You are thinking so highly of yourself. I'll make you remember how I defeated you last time!" Graalkira charged at Mr. Bison, intending to land a full-powered ram. Mr. Bison just stood there without moving.
CRRAAAANG!!
Their horns produced a loud, sharp, metal-on-metal echoing clash.
Graalkira fell to the ground immediately after the clash. Her horns broke and blood spurted from her body. She was in great pain from having her entire bones shattered.
"What? How?" The other four female demonic bison were instantly terrified of Mr. Bison after witnessing the one-sided victory. They were afraid that Mr. Bison would kill them.
Suddenly, Mr. Bison grew even larger, and he stared at them menacingly.
"Intermediate-level!!" They exclaimed. They become even more afraid of Mr. Bison.
"Forgive us, Grathul! Forgive us! We will follow you from now on. Please spare us!" They were begging for mercy.
"Hmph, I told you I'm the protagonist. I would have led our herd to be the strongest, but not anymore!" Mr. Bison talked big again. But this time, they completely believed him.
"Boss, can you help me heal Graalkira?" Mr. Bison suddenly asked.
Leyvi was surprised, but he followed Mr. Bison's request. He took out a minor healing elixir and poured it into Graalkira's mouth. The other four female demonic bison didn't dare to say anything, even though they saw a human feed something to their leader.
A few minutes later, Graalkira fully recovered and her horns grew back. She stood on her four feet again and looked up as Mr. Bison was much larger now.
"Why didn't you just kill me?" Graalkira was still deeply shocked by what happened, but she was more curious as to why Grathul didn't finish her off. Didn't he come for revenge? He even wasted a miraculous water to heal her back.
"Hmph. Not interested. You can keep being the herd leader. Boss, let's go." Mr. Bison shrunk down to the normal size and turned around.
Graalkira stared at Mr. Bison's back with mixed feelings.
"Why didn't you kill her? Aren't you trying to get your revenge?" Leyvi asked while carrying Mr. Bison's to the airship.
"Come on, boss. I already said I was going to brag, not revenge. I'm living a better life now. What's the point of revenge?" Mr. Bison replied.
Leyvi was dumbfounded. Right, he did say he was going to brag.
"After all, I'm the destined protagonist. I'm going to save the world one day. I need them to be the witness and pass down my legend." Mr. Bison continued.
"The heck! Protagonist my fart! You are a bison. Did you ram too much? You become a delusional bison now?" Leyvi felt like dropping him to the ground right now.
"I'm not lying! There were many stories like that recorded! Their situations are similar to mine! First, I got chased away. Then, I got saved from death by plot armor. Then, I got a superpower. Going on adventures, finding treasures, entering tournaments. Isn't that the same thing that happened to all the protagonists? You can ask Miss Sayu if you don't believe me. Those stories are authentic!" Mr. Bison was adamant about it.
Leyvi rolled his eyes. It's over. This bison has become fully delusional. What she read to him were novels, not biographies! What kind of protagonist do you want to be? The Idiot Bison King?
Suddenly,
Leyvi remembered something crucial. "Dammit! Why do I have to carry you like this? Go back inside the spirit beast bag!" Mr. Bison instantly vanished.
Leyvi couldn't believe he carried Mr. Bison up and down like an idiot. Maybe he should interact less with Mr. Bison. It was proven now that his stupidity could infect another living being. He already wasn't that smart in the first place. If he became dumber, people might think he was related to Dorin.
When Leyvi returned to the airship, Nala and the maids were there watching him while giggling. Uhh, did they see his interaction with Mr. Bison? It's over. My dignity is gone!
"Ehem, I felt like lifting some weight just now. That lawnmower has the perfect weight." Leyvi made a lame excuse.
"Husband, we haven't said anything," Nikita said with a smile while the rest continued giggling.
Leyvi became embarrassed. However, he has been in embarrassing situations many times, so he knows exactly what he must do. Ignore it and be even more shameless!
"Ah, I see. So you five tried to embarrass your husband, eh? Let's see who will embarrass who, in my cabin! Villain Leyvi, activate! Hahaha!" Leyvi conjured two vines and captured the five ladies.
"Ah! Help! Save us!" They screamed, pretending to be a group of damsels in distress.
"Hahaha! Keep screaming! Nobody will save you. Not even the Panda Saintess!" Leyvi 'abducted' the five maidens into his cabin and role-played as a villain.
That night, many kinds of roleplay happened in Leyvi's cabin. At some point, the Panda Saintess rushed into the evil den to save the five maidens, but she also fell into Leyvi's evil clutches.
In the end, the six maidens became corrupted and obediently served Villain Leyvi.
Three days later,
They crossed the grassland and reached Bara City.
"Hahaha! We are back!" Leyvi said loudly after they disembarked from the airship just outside the city.
"You guys live here? It's just a small city. It feels isolated." Dorin commented.
"If you don't like it, you can go away." Valenia had become increasingly annoyed by Dorin. Maybe she shouldn't have saved her. She couldn't believe that her Flying Sword Intent debut got wasted on saving this weirdo.
"Alright, alright. Let's go in." Leyvi diffused the ticking bomb.
As soon as they passed through the city gate, a huge crowd surrounded them, along with some banners.
"Congratulations and welcome back City Lord Leyvi!" The crowd chanted.
"HUH????"
