Shen Yifei finished making the hot pot and left it cooling on the table. Meanwhile, I went to the restroom, and before leaving, the door behind me suddenly closed.
Bang!
It wasn't an accident because a moment later there was a shadow against the shower curtain.
'I see. Do you want to die or be my slave?'
Mu Qinglan stepped forward, and the shower curtain clattered in a rapid sound, opening before me.
The light hit her pale skin from head to toe.
"What do you want?" She asked me while tilting her head as if meeting in the restroom was normal.
I couldn't help but gawk at her body because anyone would admit that her beauty was truly flawless.
'She really does look like a doll.'
Her hair draped across her shoulder, with some wisps of black hair left hanging.
The blackness contrasted with her white skin and large, round chest.
Her delicate shoulders led down to a flat stomach with a navel that made men want to kiss it.
My eyes couldn't help but follow her lower abdomen down to her fluffy mound… and those beautiful hips.
The best part about her was those thick, meaty thighs, packed with muscle from her constant exercise and weight lifting.
"If we met you under normal circumstances, would we still have this type of relationship?"
"Impossible." She replied instantly, but I didn't mind.
This honesty was why I didn't mind her scolding back at work.
Because everything she said helped me improve, but thinking of that place now made my stomach churn with anger.
"Have you seen enough?"
Once again, I noticed how muted her reactions became—maybe the living dead don't have the same intense emotions or shame. But she didn't react at all.
"Yup, thanks."
Although I didn't know if I should be honest or perverted, I decided to match her attitude and show her that I appreciated her beauty.
However, this response seemed to shock her quite a bit because Qinglan's brows twitched, and her hands lowered from her chest.
Her cheeks became red, and it was quite an enjoyable sight until I saw her lifting before she snapped at me like a whip from an angry master, "Get out!"
Bang!
My back hit the door, but I only smiled, and as I left the bathroom, my eyes couldn't help but check one last time before gazing back into the living room.
'We need to go out and hunt for more food, but will the others be willing?'
To become a leader, I had to choose a path and style. Would I become a tyrant, an overlord who rules with domineering charisma and power?
Potentially, I could become worshipped as a wise lord or king who treats people well.
However, isn't that selfish?
Would I become a tyrant overlord?
No…
It would be better to create a new style and path of my own.
Something that takes the best parts of a tyrant and overlord and the things which make kings and emperors great.
'This… is the first step!'
This world needs someone strong and capable.
'I cannot rely on Mu Qinglan alone!'
What if she isn't here? I would be dead.
I shouldn't become arrogant until I can back it up.
So, only recruiting S-Tier beauties will lead to my death while still weak. I observed Shen Yifei and noticed that her affection towards me was triple Mu Qinglan.
[Would you like to recruit Shen Yifei?]
'Yes.'
Because she could serve as a different type of support, her cooking and first aid skills must be a help to the group.
Once I reached the next rank, I could think about recruiting Jiang Roulan.
[You Have Recruited: Shen Yifei (B-Tier)]
• Shen Yifei's attributes are now visible
• You have gained 50 Experience
• You have shared Shen Yifei's [First Aid] skill.
[B-Tier Subject recruited!]
• You have gained 500 ZKP!
'Huh?'
The moment I noticed the subtle changes in Shen Yifei's eyes and her attributes floating above her head, part of me expected her to choose a second skill.
However, I received some ZKP instead.
[Tutorial Hint: Because Shen Yifei wasn't S-Tier, you only gained a ZKP]
'Are there more rewards for higher Tiers?'
Although it was understandable that an S-Tier was special, the thought of not gaining ZKP from recruiting her made him feel a little salty, but he couldn't remain like this.
Well, sometimes you lose.
It's a common fact.
'I can just put it towards her Tier-up Potion.'
When I scanned her attributes, compared to Mu Qinglan, I really couldn't see her fighting that often, but it wasn't like I wished for her to die or anything so instead, I stopped and took a breath.
'Show me available Roles for Shen Yifei!'
[Roles Available]
• Maid
• Chef
• Nurse
• Housewife
• Companion
• Lover
• Poacher
• Mascot
The moment the list appeared, it almost made me spit out blood.
I couldn't understand why a few of the classes seemed a little wild or even completely inappropriate, like Housewife, lover, and companion.
'Is this some type of power fantasy, where I fuck every woman and leave none spared?'
No…
Until she reaches S-Tier, let's keep my little brother safe from any infections or diseases!
'System, do any of these roles give her attributes a boost?'
[System: Cannot Answer!]
[Tutorial Hint: Some roles give bonuses for many skills, like Maid and Housewife, which encompass several skills.]
"What's the matter?" Shen Yifei gazed at me with confusion.
"Nothing, just thinking of something. Oh, and don't spit in my food."
"…Why the hell would I spit in your food?!"
I watched the short blonde stomping on the floor. Today, Yifei tied her hair into twin tails, and it suited her.
Suppose Mu Qinglan was a peerless beauty, like those kung fu novels. Jiang Roulan is the hot police sister from next door with a dynamite body. Then Shen Yifei is the annoying younger woman, who you can't help but get a weird boner for at the worst moment.
"Hmph…"
She flicked her hair and turned away, but I couldn't help but feel mischievous.
'Give her the Maid Role!'
[Shen Yifei's Role set to: Maid]
• Cooking will grant system experience.
• First aid will grant system experience.
• Amusing 'Wang John' will grant system experience.
The moment I changed her role, the pretty blonde shuddered, her hands grasping the counter as she turned back with a strange expression covering her lips.
"Hnnng?!"
A subtle moan escaped from her pink lips as she almost collapsed.
Of course, I just watched, curious about the change.
[Shen Yifei has become more conscious of your gaze]

With the second member, I wondered if it was time to go outside and hunt down some zombies with the group…
Staying at home was a little boring.
And thanks to Qinglan, I discovered how to get stronger!
