I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 70: Death flag

When we heard this, both of us couldn't stop the blushes from appearing on our faces.

Bing Xin then gathered blue energy in her hand as she started punching Tie Gang on the chest.

Tie Gang didn't seem to react at first, but then seeing the angry look on her face, he started to act like it hurt for him to be punched.

During this whole time, I could still see some kind of glimmer coming from him. It was almost like the sheen of metal with the way that it shimmered.

Finally, Bing Xin stopped punching him and she brought her hands in front of her to blow on her fists. After blowing on them for a bit, she said, "Iron punk, you really are too hard to hit."

I looked at Tie Gang with a confused look when I heard this.

Tie Gang saw this and explained, "My power is Metallization. I can turn all or parts of my body into metal. What I was doing just now was turning the surface of my skin to metal, that was why my defenses were so hard."

After a pause, he added, "Though just turning into metal isn't good enough. You have to be smart with your powers, which is why I only turned the surface of my skin into metal. That way, I can remain flexible while also gaining the toughness of metal without letting it be a drain on my mana stores."

Bing Lan commented from the side, "Is it alright for you to tell him all of this? Isn't that part of the secret of your power?"

Tie Gang said with a smile, "It's fine, Little Brother Lin is a part of the family, so it doesn't matter if I tell him this."

Bing Xin's face once again filled with a blush after she heard this and she shyly lowered her head, no longer angrily glaring at Tie Gang.

Bing Lan just gave a sigh and said, "If you're done playing around, we have a job to do."

At this, Tie Gang revealed a serious look and gave a nod before following Bing Lan in.

Bing Xin hesitated a bit before also heading in while waving at me to follow, so I went along with her.

As we were walking at the back of the group, I kept the expression on my face neutral,  but there was a bit of a displeased glow in my eyes.

Bing Xin had been peeking out of the corner of her eyes and she could see this, so she asked, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy that you lost against Big Brother Tie? You have to know that he's an A Ranker, most people aren't even able to last more than a few seconds against him. You were even able to push him back."

"Un, it's not that…" My voice trailed off as I didn't know what to say next.

Bing Xin looked at me with a confused look at first, but seeing the look of struggle on my face, she slowly started to understand what I was feeling.

Then there was a blush that appeared on her face as she shyly lowered her head again.

After a bit of silence, she said, "Big Brother Tie already has a fiancee, they will be getting married in a few months."

"Huh?" I said in a surprised voice.

I couldn't help slowly looking at her with a surprised look as I slowly started to understand what she was saying.

Then I couldn't help looking down as well with an awkward look on my face.

But there was no denying that slightly relieved feeling in my heart.

However, after calming down, I couldn't help thinking…

"Isn't this a death flag?"

A Dungeon Break that had suddenly happened out of nowhere like this and an A Ranker that was about to get married being called in to clear the dungeon with the Dungeon Break…

No matter how I looked at it, I couldn't help thinking that this was some kind of death flag…

So I couldn't help turning to look at Tie Gang with a look of pity.

After reaching the tent, we all sat down and they started discussing the dungeon raid plan.

To put it simply, the plan was to have the C and D Rankers gathered to create a path to the dungeon and then to have Tie Gang lead his team to clear it.

Tie Gang's team was considered an A Rank team not just because of Tie Gang's strength alone. They had been working together for a long time now and they supported Tie Gang as he cleared out many A Rank Dungeons.

So the A Rank team title that they had was not something that was undeserved.

Of course, the biggest part of this plan was that it depended on Tie Gang being able to clear the dungeon.

When everyone looked at him for confirmation, he said with a confident smile, "It's not a problem! Something like this is easy for me!"

The moment that I heard this, I couldn't stop the three black lines from appearing on my forehead…

Can you please stop setting up more death flags for yourself?

No matter how you looked at it, being confident like this when you're about to enter an unknown dungeon was just asking for trouble!

But everyone just applauded and praised Tie Gang when they heard this.

Not a single one of them doubted his words.

I really couldn't help giving a sigh when I saw all of this.

I even started to feel sorry for Tie Gang with the way that he was setting up all of these death flags for himself…

So when the meeting was over and it was time for him to head into the dungeon, I walked over and patted him on the shoulder as I said with a sigh, "Good luck."

Tie Gang revealed a confused look at first, but then he said with a smile, "It'll be fine! I don't need luck!"

I just shook my head and gave another sigh.

This man really liked setting up death flags for himself!
