Created a Reverse Harem in a Doomed World (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 23
Inside the deep, dark cellar beneath Keaton Manor.
As I descended there holding a lamp, I found the corpse of a zombie we had slain lying atop a spacious iron table.
Luce and Michael turned their heads toward me upon hearing the sound of my footsteps on the stairs.
At my firm insistence—and to guard against any possible risk of infection—they were examining the zombie while wearing handkerchiefs over their faces instead of masks and cloth gloves.
I, too, cautiously approached, covering my nose and mouth with a handkerchief and wearing gloves.
“Have you figured anything out yet?”
Though the servants had already delivered our meal, this felt like a kind of overtime work, so I’d even brought along some light snacks.
The snacks consisted of fluffy white bread, butter and jam, cheese and thin slices of ham to stuff inside, and fruit juice. I’d omitted alcohol out of consideration for Michael, the holy knight who didn’t drink.
Luce and Michael merely glanced at the basket of snacks I’d brought before refocusing intently on analyzing the zombie.
“Not yet.”
“There’s been less progress than I expected.”
Both answered my question. Though it was disappointing that they’d found no results, seeing them so absorbed in their work put my mind at ease.
“Hmph. Even I, from the Management Bureau, couldn’t uncover the cause of this zombie outbreak—do they really think those two, just because they’re the original story’s supporting male leads, would know?”
Why are you picking a fight again?
Zero, you rascal. When it comes to stubborn pride in the oddest places, you’re truly number one.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
