Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Lap Pillow Battle
Lynn's Peerage Harem Group Chat.
Sigma Man: [Picture] [Picture] [Picture]
Lynn casually snapped a few photos of the scenery outside the school bus window and sent them to the group.
Desolate streets, overturned vehicles, bloodstains everywhere, and the grotesque figures of zombies rushing toward the school bus, drawn by the noise.
Main World.
Utaha clicked on the pictures, thinking they looked like stills from a zombie movie.
A new zombie flick?
Was Lynn inviting her to go to the movies?
She entertained the thought for a moment but quickly dismissed it.
Sigma Man: Currently in another world. Just recruited two new peerage members.

Kasumigaoka Utaha: !
Utaha ignored the first message entirely and clicked on the last image instead.
A formidable rival!
This woman was a serious threat!
Gripping her phone tightly, Utaha glared at the picture of Lynn resting on a pair of soft, plump thighs.
He'd only been gone for an afternoon, and now he had two new followers?
And one of them was already letting him use her thighs as a pillow?!
Kasumigaoka Utaha: So this is why you're not coming back tonight?
She bit her lip lightly.
If he wasn't coming back… was he planning to spend the night with her?
The thought made her chest tighten.
Of course, she'd known from the very beginning.
From the moment she became part of his peerage, she had understood.
Lynn had never concealed his intentions.
He was destined to be a man with a harem.
Even the group chat name was blatantly clear about that.
And honestly… wasn't that what made him so attractive?
She had no illusions about it.
A man like Lynn was meant to be admired and pursued by women.
Hadn't she done the same?
It had only been a few days since she joined, and already, she wanted to be closer to him.
Closer.
Had she ever been like this before?
But still…
She came first!
At the very least, the first time should have been hers!
Determined, Utaha took a picture of her own legs, clad in sleek black stockings, and sent it to the group.

Kasumigaoka Utaha: Does it look good?
Sigma Man: Thumbs up!
Kasumigaoka Utaha: Come back tonight, and you can use them however you like~
A knee pillow?
She could do that too!

Yotsuya Household.
Miko, who had been quietly lurking in the chat, peeked at her screen.
"Utaha-senpai… how bold!"
Ding-dong!
Another message notification.
She glanced over hurriedly.
Sigma Man: That's a shame. I need to establish a temporary peerage base in this world tonight. Once it's set up, you'll be able to come here to level up.
Miko gasped softly.
"Master Lynn is incredible!"
He could resist such temptation?!
---
Meanwhile…
Utaha stared at her phone in shock.
…Rejected?
He rejected her?!
For a brief moment, she felt a little defeated.
Had she lost her charm?
But then.
She straightened up, her expression resolute.
"Lynn is doing this for the peerage's development. That's right!"
Yes, yes—he was their Master, yet he personally traveled across worlds just to secure a leveling area for them.
"It must be exhausting crossing worlds like that… right?"
Realization struck her.
That's why he needed to rest on that woman's lap.
…As for the other details about this "other world"?
She had completely forgotten them by now.

High School of The Dead World.
Lynn put down his phone, content to enjoy Saeko's soothing massage.
His chat in the group had two purposes:
First, to confirm that his connection with Utaha and the others in the main world remained stable.
Second, to inform Utaha that he wouldn't be returning tonight—so she wouldn't worry.
As for her black stockings?
Well, she belonged to him anyway.
He could play with her legs whenever he wanted.
---
Suddenly—
The school bus jerked to a stop.
The abrupt braking caused everyone inside to lurch forward.
Lynn, still resting on Saeko's lap, was treated to a shaking visual feast.
"What, what happened?!"
Saya's voice wavered in panic.
Shizuka, looking troubled, replied, "The road ahead is blocked."
Everyone turned their eyes forward.
The road was clogged with abandoned vehicles.
It seemed that when the zombie outbreak first occurred, this place had suffered a massive traffic jam.
With no clear route forward, the bus was now stuck.
Saeko sighed. "Looks like we'll have to walk the rest of the way."
Her sword could easily cut down obstacles, but a pileup of cars was a different story.
Even with their current strength as Low-Class Devils, they could probably move the vehicles.
But it would take too long.
No one objected to the idea of walking, but then.
Lynn spoke.
"It's fine. Just drive through it."
"Huh?"
Rei and Saya, who had just unbuckled their seatbelts, froze.
Drive through?
They turned to him in bewilderment.
Did he not see how many cars were piled up ahead?!
But Saeko had no hesitation.
If her Master said to rush through, then they would rush through.
"Yaho~!"
Shizuka, unexpectedly, was excited.
"Bumper cars, engage!"
The school bus engine roared.
"Wait—!"
Rei tried to protest, but.
The bus took off like a rocket!
Crazy. This is insane!
Rei and Saya clutched their seats, eyes squeezed shut as they instinctively shielded their faces.
Snap.
Lynn snapped his fingers.
A black magic circle formed, completely enveloping the school bus.
A semicircular black barrier appeared, covering the vehicle entirely.
BOOM!
The school bus smashed into the first car, making a deafening crash.
But—
Under the protection of the barrier, the bus remained completely unharmed.
Inside, there wasn't even the slightest shake from the impact.
After a while, Rei hesitantly opened her eyes.
And her jaw dropped.
The school bus was plowing through the traffic jam like a tank, sending vehicles flying left and right.
"This…"
She was stunned speechless.
A moment later, she sighed in admiration.
"Supernatural power is so unfair."
---
After this little detour, the school bus continued onward.
By the time night had fully set in, they finally arrived at Minami Rika's house.
Lynn took a quick glance around.
A fairly spacious house, decent structure.
He nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad. This should be enough for the peerage to use for now."
After confirming with his magic that the house was zombie-free, he turned to Shizuka.
"Take them inside and start cleaning up. Saeko and I will handle the zombies outside."
"Yes, Master!" x2
