Diary of Guarding Monster Girls

Chapter 871 - 438: Direct Hit Overcomes All!

"Huh? What’s strange?"

["You’re so good at flirting with everyone else~ How come in front of me you act all innocent and clumsy? Haha~"]

["Could it be you’re actually just hiding your shyness with this act?"]

Flirtatious words stirred in the heart, gently entwining his thoughts, like some soft tendrils carrying a playful tease.

Nenasha felt her skills becoming more adept, smiled faintly, and whispered in a seductive tone:

["Oh~ my dear boy, you’re really cute!"]

Herbert’s consciousness trembled slightly, as if gently poked by something soft.

No.

There’s really something poking me!

He felt shadows from the gap in his clothes suddenly extend with tentacles, wrapping around him like a right arm.

!!?

Herbert raised an eyebrow, sensing the opponent’s level had suddenly surged.

No good.

This feeling...

This woman is about to flirt with me!

And just as Herbert sensed the crisis and prepared to retaliate... Nenasha had already struck first.

["By the way, I don’t dislike your innocence!"]

["If I had a body right now, I’d gobble you up~"]

["Rawr!"]

She mimicked a "predatory" sound, as if wanting to devour him whole.

"..."

Indeed!

Herbert’s heart sank completely.

Oh no.

She’s saying all my lines!

Herbert was pressured first and then had his cards restricted, a situation far from good.

This demon by my side has watched too many vivid examples and learned too many tricks.

Even a "rawr"... she’s starting to use onomatopoeia!

Bad.

You’ve said it all, what do you want me to say!!?

Damn, damn Harmonious God!

You’re really damnable rawr!

"... Ahem!"

After being teased for a while, Herbert naturally couldn’t endure being passive all along, finally speaking slowly:

"You..."

["Huh? What’s the matter? Do you have something you want to say to me?"]

Miss Xie Shen’s voice was relaxed, as if she had already seen through his embarrassment.

Haha!

Sorry, this time, it’s my victory!

Having mastered the skills, Miss Xie Shen fought bravely, skillfully laughing: ["Ah~ I know! Tell me quietly~"]

Nenasha had realized.

She fully understood Herbert’s routine, not at all bewitched by him!

Then--

She encountered an unexpected turn.

"I love you."

["No need to be shy, you must have many things to... huh? What did you say?"]

Miss Xie Shen’s consciousness suddenly froze for a moment, as if hit by an unexpected impact.

Nenasha: ?

Wait!

What did you say?

No, the script wasn’t supposed to be like this!

At this time, weren’t you supposed to subtly tug at me?

So direct?

Valentina and the others knew Herbert seemed to have been mingling amongst the flowers, unclear and sticky with many women outside of herself...

They would subconsciously regard Herbert as a libertine nobleman who always had "love" readily at hand, just like those charming players who are popular in various stories.

But always being by Herbert’s side, Nenasha knew that those were merely others’ prejudices against him.

In truth, Herbert rarely explicitly declared love.

He seldom communicated love plainly to others; most of the time, he waited for others to take the last step.

Love or not, it’s never about spoken promises but about how much was actually done.

But now... Herbert’s not playing by the rules!

He he he, how did he just directly express love!!?

Divine panic.

And this was indeed Herbert’s counterattack.

The real tactic, the real plan was—no tactic at all.

With no need for any other disguise, relying solely on sincere emotion, that’s enough to overcome everything.

If the emotions are sincere enough, the feelings abundant enough.

Then there’s no defense that can withstand.

Direct hit versus tsundere?

No.

Direct hit versus everything.

A grand, upright offensive!

Open the door! Open the heart!

I want to love you!

Refusal?

No refusal!

Once, Herbert felt this intense, sun-like emotion from Valentina.

And now, he conveyed this burning affection he’d absorbed from others to Nenasha in his way.

Thus, in front of this unreserved emotion, the self-assured Miss Xie Shen was directly sunk by a sentence.

["You you you... uh!"]

High attack, paper defense.

Divine fallen wholly defeated.

Nenasha knew she had once again lost to this guy.

Sly, cunning, always tricking women!

Damn, mortal!

How can one say such words so shamelessly.

Previously ridiculing the demon for cowardice, the divine’s final performance wasn’t much stronger than the demon’s.

She wanted to hide.

But where could she hide?

Eventually, Nenasha, having given up struggling, reluctantly complained softly: ["... You scoundrel, you’re really good at cheating."]

Let this cunning guy win again.

Really, unwilling.

But... haha.

["Herbert."]

"Huh?"

Herbert paused for a moment, suddenly detecting something subtle in Nenasha’s incredibly gentle tone.

["I love you too."]

?

Herbert paused, then laughed easily: "Huh? Oh, thanks, I love myself too."
