Chapter 266: The plot armor is fucking ridiculous
Tang Wan is a woman who knows how society works and she knows that I am currently very well known since the video where I hit the idiot went viral.
Although I designed my face to be so normal that people will forget me in a matter of seconds, my ancient martial arts clothes are very eye-catching so people can recognize me by my clothes.
Monika has been monitoring social media and apparently, there are petitions on the internet to make me a celebrity or something stupid like that.
Although it sounds like a bad joke from people with too much time on their hands, Monika said that at least two TV stations have posted on social media that they are willing to seek me out for some interviews.
The internet is full of idiots...
The point is that Tang Wan is a smart woman and before any reporter can contact me, she decided to hide my identity to have more chances to convince me to be her bodyguard.
It may seem that this situation is very forced and she is making too much senseless effort, but everything has a reason and this is not only a cause of the author's lack of creativity.
While Tang Wan was arguing with the manager since the idiot mocked me saying that I am a homeless man who takes refuge behind a woman, a group of idiots entered the store to raid the place, but the raiders' weapons were too advanced for mere thieves so I used [Reader's Perspective] to understand what was going on.
It's not worth showing what I saw since it's stupid, the bottom line is that those idiots are faking a robbery at the clothing store to kidnap Tang Wan.
She belongs to one of the four important families in China, but she has tried to cut all her ties with the Tang family since they only see her as a tool.
An Asian country being macho, what a novelty...
The Tang family has great influence in politics and business, but currently that family is in a succession struggle and Tang Wan is a strong competitor since she formed her company almost single-handedly.
The problem is that the other heirs are jealous and seek to take control of Tang Wan's company. By the way, she is Lin Ruoxi's business rival and they both hate each other.
Tang Wan doesn't want to inherit the Tang family, but some people in her family want to force her to marry into another family for profit, so she is under constant stress.
To make the woman's stress worse, the Tang family started threatening her two days ago to give up the shares of her company or they will take action to take away her daughter from her.
This is because two of the cultivators I mutilated belonged to the Tang family so currently they are desperate for more power and prestige as losing two ancestors was a heavy blow to the status of that family.
Yes, basically this woman is on the verge of a nervous breakdown because of me... I live up to my role as a system user.
The current assailants are not random thieves, they are putting on a show to cover up a kidnapping as they are elite soldiers on a mission to kidnap Tang Wan.
Among Tang Wan's bodyguards, there is a spy who notified the Tang family that the milf's bodyguards are in the hospital so technically she is defenseless.
The spy was also sent to the hospital so he doesn't know I'm by the milf's side so again the plot favors me in a stupidly convenient way.
Considering the stress that Tang Wan is going through, if I help her then she will genuinely fall in love with me in the same way that Lin Ruoxi already sees me as her husband.
It seems that all the heroines of 'My Wife is a Beautiful CEO' are tragic women in need of affection...
"Put your hands up!" – Some idiot with his face covered by a balaclava pointed a semi-automatic rifle at us.
The manager did not hesitate to kneel as he begged for his life and pointed at Tang Wan saying that she has money and would be a more valuable hostage.
I won't lie, the idiot almost made me laugh.
Tang Wan was scared and as if it was an order from the plot, she unconsciously grabbed the corner of my shirt.
I'm currently wearing civilian clothes so I don't look like a martial artist anymore, just an ordinary boy of no importance.
"Raise your hands and kneel!" – The idiot pointed the gun at us.
Tan Wan was very scared despite having her jade bracelet so I smiled warmly at her. – "Don't worry, I told you that I will take care of you and I am a man of my word"
Tan Wan unconsciously grabbed my arm to reassure herself.
"Kneel down or you will die!" – The idiot was angry at being ignored.
Next to us was the counter of the store where there was a pen, I took the pen and threw it at the idiot's face.
Although the idiot was a soldier with excellent reflexes, the pen pierced his head and then stuck in the wall behind him.
The idiot fell to the ground as blood poured from the hole in his forehead.
I held Tang Wan's hand in a friendly way and smiled kindly at her. - "You see? Everything's fine"
"..." – Tang Wan looked at the dead man, then looked at me, then looked at the corpse, and finally saw my smile again.
Fear of seeing a murder, gratitude at being protected, and concern at my indifference to death, Tang Wan's mind made various calculations about the benefits and dangers of having me by her side.
Even though she is more rational and intelligent than Lin Ruoxi, she is in a vulnerable emotional situation so the idea of having someone protect her was very tempting, I just need to put a little more pressure and I will get a milf.
I slightly increased the power of my plot armor while Tang Wan continued to consider the options.
"What the hell?!" – An assailant approached the store and saw the body of his partner. – "Who murdered my brother?!
The manager was about to point me out, but there was another pen on the table so the second assailant was killed, but since he was outside the store the other assailants saw his partner's body fall.
They are a total of 10 raiders, a squad of elite soldiers serving the Tang family.
The remaining 8 soldiers did not attack directly but instead started shouting for us to come out with our hands up or they start killing civilians.
We are in a park and since it is working time there are no people around, but something is bothering me...
"Tang Wan?! What are you doing hugging that stupid dog with no name?!" – An idiot looked at us and started shouting nonsense while four strong men walked behind him.
This must be plot armor effect, maybe he's a Tang Wan suitor or something, I don't really care.
"Yao Chengdong..." – Tan Wan stopped hugging me and looked at the idiot with a frown.
I ignored the stupid drama and talked to Abby. – "I have a bad feeling... Is there any distortion in space?"
"I can't feel anomalies in space, but somehow the surroundings feel unpleasant" - Abby frowned. – "It is as if a layer of dirt is covering the surroundings, but it does not seem like a spatial interference..."
This feeling is similar to the Authority of an Administrator, but at the same time it is different...
I can't analyze it as it's just a superficial sensation, it's something similar to smelling the smell of burning garbage, but due to the wind the smell is dispersing.
"Abby, prepare the space skills, it seems that something is surrounding us" - I began to make my preparations.
"All set" – Abby nodded.
I prepared my Stand to escape in case we are held inside a conceptual cage or some similar stupidity.
"You dare to reject my proposal! Ignorant woman who does not know the vastness of the heavens, you are offending the Yao family!" – The idiot yelled nonsense.
One moment.
The idiot is using an Authority to suppress my skills, he's an Administrator.
That doesn't matter, the problem is that it's not his Authority that's giving me the unpleasant feeling, there's something watching around us, but I can't find it exact location...
"Break the legs of that pig who dares to touch my wife!" – The idiot gave orders to his bodyguard.
Tang Wan held my arm worriedly. – "He is the heir to the Yao family, one of the four great families, it is better if we leave now since you will be in trouble if you attack him"
How cute, she doesn't care that I get hurt, but she cares that I get in trouble.
"A spatial distortion is forming, but it's not a pocket dimension... What is this? Reality fabrication?... Oh, a timeline superimposed on this reality, this is very interesting" – Abby was very curious, this little girl loves discovering new things.
"Oh, I know this feeling~" – BB smiled. – "Ne, senpai, it seems that you are about to meet the pawns of my old co-worker~"
.... Beast VII.
I smiled at Tang Wan. - "Do not worry everything will be fine"
Before she said anything I used acupuncture to make her sleep peacefully.
The bodyguards sensed that something was wrong with our surroundings so they didn't attack me, but surrounded the idiot to protect him.
The surroundings changed in an instant.
Mirror dimensions are copies of the real world designed for supernatural entities to fight without harming the real world.
The pocket dimensions are small worlds independent of Gaia where Alaya has no authority.
This place was different.
We are still in Gaia, we are still in China and we are in the real world, but the Authority of an Administrator does not work here...
I don't know what this place is, but it's interesting.
"Damn bastard! Where we are?!" – The idiot yelled at me like this was my fault so I ignored him.
Let's see, four people, none of them are fully human...
I sighed internally, it seems that I will have to sacrifice this cultivator identity.
I covered Tang Wan with [Anti-Rasen] to protect her, then removed the restrictions I put on [Body of Beast V].
I didn't directly use the skill, I just have to wait for the right moment.
"It's time for senpai to show the Dao of the cliff~"
...This girl can't take anything seriously...

If there are any Fate/Grand Order fans, please don't kill me if I change the lore and timeline of the events, I'll also make some adjustments to the Servants since I don't know everything that involves Type-Moon.
I'll try my best not to make too silly changes, but I apologize in advance if I make mistakes in the lore.
Finally, a hug.
