"Mingmei, come here, young master has something good for you."
"Here I am!"
Hearing Yuzuru's call, Akemi smiled, lifted the hem of her maid outfit with her slender hand, and happily ran over.
Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on her, like a moving oil painting.
She stopped in front of him, looked up, and showed no trace of the domineering aura she had displayed when she uprooted the willow tree. Instead, she looked at Yu Sheng Nan's handsome face with a sweet expression and asked, "What good stuff is it, Young Master Yu Sheng?"
"Ta-da!"
With a wicked grin, Yuzuru took his hands out from behind his back.
He placed a red mask with two bull horns on the little maid's cute face.
"Huh?"
Akemi didn't realize what was happening for a moment. Her two big eyes under the mask blinked, and her long eyelashes brushed against the inside of the mask, making a soft rustling sound.
But she didn't reach out to take off the mask; instead, she obediently let Yuzuru do as he pleased, even slightly tiptoeing in cooperation.
Yuzuru looked at Akemi wearing the Bull Warrior mask with satisfaction, nodded, and smiled, "Good, my little maid is now the Bull Warrior. Remember, the Bull Warrior will never take off her mask."
As he spoke, he patted Mingmei on the shoulder with great seriousness, as if he were performing some kind of sacred awarding ceremony.
We must not forget this classic line.
The Ox Talisman was something the system took from the Holy Lord a couple of days ago.
To be honest, Yu Shengnan felt a little sorry for the Holy Master. How could someone keep ruthlessly exploiting a single person?
But... he likes it.
Although the Ox Talisman isn't very useful to him right now, he can save it up. Once the system has taken all twelve talismans from the Holy Lord, it'll be hard to say who the real Holy Lord will be then.
Whoever possesses the talisman is the Holy Lord.
You don't have any talismans, so what makes you claim to be the Holy Lord?
"Young Master Yuzuru, isn't this a bit strange?" Akemi, wearing a bull warrior mask, tilted her head and blinked. Her voice came through the mask, carrying a kind of muffled cuteness.
The voice came through the mask, carrying a muffled cuteness.
"How could that be!" Yuzuru Hanyu exclaimed, feigning seriousness as he spouted nonsense. "This is a symbol of power. Look—"
As if by magic, he pulled out another identical mask from behind his back and put it on his face: "Now we're the Bull Warriors!"
Akemi giggled, her maid skirt swaying gently with her movements. She struck a fighting pose, just like in the anime: "Then I'll protect Master Yuzuru!"
The two looked at each other and burst out laughing at the same time.
This backyard, after being expanded multiple times by Yuzuru Hanyu using the Dimensional Roller Mop, is now as vast as a real African savanna.
In the distance are rolling hills, and nearby is a winding river, dotted with a dense forest. Various animals live together in harmony, forming a complete ecosystem.
"Bull Warrior Mingmei, your first mission has arrived!" Yuzuru suddenly pointed into the distance, his face serious. "Look over there! There's an evil lion bullying a small animal!"
Mingmei looked in the direction he was pointing and saw the bald lion sneaking up on a rabbit that was grazing, clearly trying to salvage its last vestige of dignity as the king of the grasslands.
"Yes, ma'am!" Mingmei gave a perfunctory bow, then strode towards the lion.
Her movements were as light as a deer's, but each step left deep footprints on the grass—the power of the [Ox Talisman] was no joke.
If we're just talking about pure strength, without considering other abilities, Yuzuru might not even be as strong as the little maid right now.
Not far away, just as the lion was about to pounce on the plump rabbit, it suddenly felt the ground shake.
It looked up and saw the terrifying little bipedal creature charging towards it, wearing a strange red mask on its face.
The lion's fur stood on end (though it didn't have much fur left to stand on end), and it turned and ran, so fast that it kicked up a cloud of dust behind it.
The majesty of the king of the grasslands has vanished.
"Halt! You evil lion!"
Mingmei chased after her, calling out, her voice full of laughter.
The rabbit calmly continued grazing, glancing up at the man and lion chasing each other, completely unaware that it had almost lost its life.
Yuzuru Hanyu laughed so hard he couldn't stand up straight.
He hadn't seen Akemi so lively in a long time. The usually gentle and considerate maid was now as cheerful as a child who had received a new toy.
"Bull Warrior Akemi! Jump with your super strength!"
Yuzuru gave a loud command.
Upon hearing this, Mingmei slightly bent her knees and then leaped—this leap actually cleared the three-meter-wide stream and landed in front of the lion.
The poor lion braked suddenly, almost hitting Mingmei's leg. It was so frightened that it lay down on the ground, whimpering and begging for mercy, just like a big cat being scolded by its owner.
"I caught it!" Mingmei shouted happily as she turned around and touched the lion's bald head—it felt surprisingly good.
The lion resignedly lay down on the ground, letting Mingmei stroke it.
It finally understood that on this grassland, it would always be at the bottom of the food chain. Last time it was plucked, this time it was chased, and who knows what it would encounter next time.
Thinking of this, it couldn't help but shed two lines of clear tears.
"Well done, Bull Warrior!" Yuzuru clapped and walked over. "Now, what should we do with this villain?"
Mingmei thought about it and decided that killing was definitely not an option. Although the evil lion was bullying the innocent little rabbit, it was also following the laws of nature and protecting the ecological environment.
"How about we dress it up? It looks so ugly right now, like a hairless cat, without any of the majesty of a lion?" Mingmei suggested, tilting her head.
(Lion: So? Don't you guys have any idea why it's become like this?)
"Great idea!"
Yuzuru didn't care what the lion thought. Since the little maid said it was ugly, he would give it a makeover. He snapped his fingers, and a red bow tie appeared in his hand.
The lion looked at the bow tie in terror, but under Akemi's "gentle" gaze, it obediently let Yuzuru tie it for it.
Now, with its bald head and red bow tie, it looks both ridiculous and pathetic, and has lost all its former glory as the king of the grasslands.
More like a retired performer who has been abused in a circus.
What are you doing?
A cold voice suddenly came from behind.
Hanyu Nan and Akemi turned around at the same time and saw Ai appear by the river at some point. She was wearing a white lab coat, her short brown hair was shiny in the sunlight, and she was holding a notebook in her hand. She had obviously just come out of the laboratory.
"Ai!" Akemi waved happily, completely forgetting that she was still wearing the bull horn mask. "We're playing the Bull Warrior game!"
