Becoming the King of A New Filthy World - Chapter 367: Anime!

Power stone guys

Considering my options, I decided to venture into a genre that women would generally avoid. “It’s an anime filled with beautiful girls, so Sylvie probably wouldn’t know about it.”

To my surprise, Sylvie’s face lit up. “Could it be ‘A Casual Otherworldly Romance’?” she asked, her eyes shining with excitement.

I had underestimated Sylvie’s devotion to anime. The name of a beautiful girl anime suddenly emerged, and it seemed like we might share a common interest.

Could she be a kindred spirit? The dormant otaku within me stirred slightly.

“What? I like the title, though?” I responded, trying to hide my surprise.

“It’s an incredibly popular series, Anif’s annual number one! If you haven’t watched it yet, you absolutely must!” Sylvie exclaimed, her enthusiasm contagious.

My concerns about the mainstream taste in this world were put to rest. I had worried that everyone secretly enjoyed hypnotic, NTR, and tentacle-themed content, with the “this world” universe shining at the top of the adult game industry. But realizing that pure love was, in fact, a universally shared value brought an odd sense of relief.

“Haven’t seen it yet? Then, would you like to watch it together at my house? I have a collector’s edition from episode 1 to 152, so let’s binge-watch it together!” Sylvie suggested eagerly.

“No, not so many episodes at once…” I replied, taken aback by Sylvie’s sudden burst of brightness and liveliness.

Sylvie, you were never a character who spoke with such a bright and lively voice! I thought to myself, intrigued by this unexpected side of her.

As Sylvie passionately discussed the animated series, I found myself speechless, simply watching her in awe. Kelly, unable to join the conversation, focused on eating her mapo tofu, glancing back and forth between Sylvie and me.

“So that’s the kind of thing she’s into…” I thought to myself, realizing that there was a plausible reason behind Sylvie being portrayed as a nerdy heroine. At first glance, with her figure and face partially hidden by her bangs, I had wondered why. But her enthusiasm for anime made it all make sense.

Being quite the formidable otaku myself, I could relate to her excitement. I understood the disappointment one might feel if their request to share a beloved series was declined.

“Alright. Let’s watch it together,” I finally replied.

“Really? Really? When, what time? How many minutes? I—I already know the ending, but I’ll be quiet as if I’ve never seen it!” Sylvie exclaimed, her excitement palpable.

“This weekend?” I suggested.

“Yes! This weekend!” Sylvie eagerly agreed.

Unexpectedly, I found myself agreeing to an anime viewing party with my female classmate, who I presumed had a K-cup size. If the genre was pure love, there was no reason to say no.

After making the choice, I couldn’t help but wonder if this was a strategic move. A wry smile crossed my lips.

“Hehe.”

If that were the case, it seemed as if marriage was already on the table. I genuinely felt concerned for Sylvie, as she seemed like the type who could easily be ensnared by some unsavory man and have her life twisted. I made a mental note to look out for her.

Of course, that didn’t mean I intended to seize any opportunity to fondle her breasts. There would be no reason for that if we maintained a normal friendship.

Our first meeting had been a bit hasty, but as long as I remained cautious, we could maintain a good relationship without triggering any more random erotic events.

“I hope she doesn’t get struck in the eye in the dungeon,” I quietly pondered, concerned for Sylvie’s safety.

It would be fortunate if I didn’t hold back the two heroines, who were stronger than me.

In the afternoon class session, Class 2-F returned to the indoor training ground, preparing to tackle the dungeon. Each student gathered the necessary items from their lockers.

Sylvie carried a dark brown, wall-like staff, while Kelly was meticulously armed with a custom belt that could be worn over her school uniform and gloves to protect her hands. This was a stark contrast to her hasty preparation during the previous expedition.

Nevertheless, in my eyes, the sight of venturing into a dungeon clad in a school uniform that exposed bare thighs appeared both perilous and tough.

The crucial point was that their level of preparedness surpassed mine.

I was the only one standing alone, garbed in nothing but a hoodie.

“What’s this, Lucas? Don’t you have any personal gear?” Kelly inquired, taken aback.

I remained silent, feeling a pang of embarrassment. In my locker, there was a risqué magazine featuring the idol “Mary,” who bore a striking resemblance to the student council president. But bringing that wouldn’t be of any help in this situation.

I felt like a pitiable student who couldn’t afford to bring expensive equipment due to family circumstances.

And perhaps that woeful aura stirred Kelly’s class president instincts.

“…There’s still time, so follow me!” Kelly said, snapping her fingers and taking my hand to lead me away.

“Uh, uh, Sylvie, I’ll be back in a bit,” I called out to Sylvie as Kelly pulled me away from the indoor training ground.

As we turned the corner of the hallway, I noticed a seemingly sleep-deprived female student guarding a door.

“Kelly? What’s going on?” I asked, curious about the sudden detour.

“Noam, could I take a look at your gear?” Kelly requested.

“Lucas? Isn’t he a rank D? It might be a bit early for him,” Noam replied skeptically, eyeing me up and down.

“Well, he doesn’t even have basic equipment. This guy,” Kelly explained, a hint of embarrassment in her voice.
