After the proposal, the Valkyrie came to the door

But Anliang wasn't angry at all; instead, he had a cheerful expression, which puzzled Alicia.

"Why should I care? Jealousy, from another perspective, is actually a sign that you care about me!"

An Liang crossed his arms over his chest and slightly raised his chin, looking like an emotional master who specializes in the psychology of love.

Love is essentially a form of possessiveness.

Just as a wild beast will bare its teeth and claws at anyone who invades its territory, lovers in the throes of passion find it difficult to tolerate any other person interfering in their relationship.

"Jealousy stems from the fear that your partner might find someone they like more. But if you don't truly love them, why be afraid?"

"When we first met, Möbius tried to pull me away from you, and you didn't react at all. But after we started dating, you would look wary every time Möbius got close to me, and now you're jealous over a lipstick mark..."

"Alicia, this is a sign that your affection for me is growing. I'm overjoyed, so how could I possibly be angry about it?!"

An Liang pinched the girl's soft cheek, a doting smile on his face.

Alicia fell into deep thought because of her fiancé's words. After a while, she slapped Anliang's large hand away and spoke thoughtfully.

So, does that mean being jealous is actually a good thing?

"It depends on the degree. Normal jealousy can help strengthen a relationship, but as for your jealousy just now, I think it was more like you being affectionate..."

An Liang spoke carefully, a hint of reminiscence flashing in his dark eyes.

He had dated so many Valkyries and had witnessed countless instances of girlfriends getting jealous; Alicia's level of jealousy was nothing to Anliang.

Some Valkyries can be truly deadly when they get jealous.

For example, Raiden Mei, this girl with long purple hair, seems as gentle as a Yamato Nadeshiko, and is completely obedient to you...

But if the girl finds traces of other women on you, she will instantly turn into a cold and ruthless queen of thunder, giving people a sense of oppression that could lead to domestic violence at any moment.

However, Raiden Mei isn't the most heavyweight.

What's truly terrifying is Seele when she's jealous.

This seemingly weak and vulnerable girl, once she discovers any signs of your infidelity, will have her inner personality emerge, transforming into a yandere and dragging you into the basement for exploitation and punishment.

During this process, Seele's other personality will occasionally emerge, looking at you with a pair of beautiful, tearful eyes, sadly asking if she has done something wrong, subjecting you to both mental and physical torment.

Who the hell can handle this?!

In comparison, Alicia's slight jealousy felt like a gentle breeze to Anliang!

"How should I put it? I think it's okay to be jealous occasionally. As long as we're honest enough, we can clear up any misunderstandings. Isn't that a kind of fun in itself?"

Anliang recalled his many tumultuous relationships and expressed the sentiments of someone who had been through it all.

Alicia nodded as if she understood something, and then put the knowledge she had just learned into practice by tackling Anliang down on the sofa.

Looking at the young man beneath her, who still smelled slightly of alcohol, Alicia licked her lips, her beautiful pink-blue eyes gleaming.

"Since you've put it that way, then Miss Fairy, you'd better be jealous to the end and thoroughly investigate whether you've been fooling around with other women!"

"Alright, alright, then may I ask how Miss Fairy intends to investigate me?"

Anliang raised his hands in a French military salute, his expression pleading for the girl to go easy on him.

"How do we check? We'll check if there are any other traces on your body, of course!"

Alicia rubbed her hands together and began to unbutton Anliang's clothes, occasionally letting out a chuckle, her expression subtly leaning towards that of a perverted woman.

As a doujinshi artist, Anliang instantly thought of more than a dozen erotic scenarios and mentally prepared himself to be reverse-raped by Alicia.

Unfortunately, Miss Fairy's heart is still quite pure.

After stripping Anliang of his shirt, Alicia simply stroked his muscular body all over with her hands before stopping, her face slightly flushed.

"You've touched me, you've looked at me, now you can be sure I haven't done those things with other women, right?"

Anliang looked at the girl pressing down on him and shrugged.

He felt that given Alicia's personality and lack of experience, this was about enough for her to play around.

However, Alicia unexpectedly launched a new offensive.

"Hmm... We've preliminarily ruled out any suspicion of involvement, but we can't be 100% certain yet."

The girl took a deep breath, as if she had made a major decision, and leaned down to kiss Anliang's thin lips, while her jade-like hands restlessly reached for a certain place.

"Just in case, Miss Fairy, would you like to inspect the goods?"

"Wait, um—"

An Liang's eyes widened, but before he could finish speaking, Alicia stopped him, leaving only heavy breathing.

Time seemed to stretch on at that moment.

After the two figures separated again, Alicia breathed heavily, her face flushed, her beautiful eyes filled with a dreamy look, and her charming expression was exceptionally alluring.

Anliang's reaction was not as intense.

Unsurprisingly, under the girl's teasing, his manhood became erect, yearning for the ultimate battle!

"Now that the goods have been inspected, what do you think?"

"Very, very energetic, seems to be fine..."

Alicia stammered, avoiding eye contact with Anliang.

"Now that you're fine, it's my turn to have problems."

Anliang grabbed the girl's hand and said with a half-smile, "The goods have already been opened, my dear fairy, you wouldn't just abandon them and try to return them, would you?"

"Well, Miss Fairy will certainly take responsibility for that..."

Alicia swallowed hard, suppressing her shame, and whispered in Anliang's ear, "But not here. Come on, come on, come with me to the bathroom!"

P.S.: I originally wanted to write several thousand words about the follow-up content, but I was afraid it wouldn't pass the review, so I can only hint at it in this way. The rest is up to your imagination!

Chapter 33 My body feels completely drained!

May 23, 10:00 AM.

At this hour, when the sun was already high in the sky, Anliang, who was used to waking up early, was lying in bed as usual, with a hint of weariness still lingering on his face.

"Tsk, I still feel a bit weak after a nap..."

An Liang raised his hand to his forehead, looked at the bright sunshine outside the window, and sighed.

After battling a certain female demon to exhaustion last night, he had never missed his former powerful body, capable of withstanding Kevin's Heavenly Fire, so much.

That was an invincible body that An Liang had cultivated with great effort based on his experience from multiple reincarnations. It could withstand countless tribulations without being destroyed, and even had a self-healing ability comparable to Fu Hua's after fusing with Garuda's factor.

Unfortunately, the Cocoon of the End is no pushover either.

In the final cycle, An Liang reached the pinnacle of his power, sacrificing everything to destroy the Cocoon of the End. However, the Cocoon of the End also forcibly reset the timeline, using its power to regress his strength to that of an ordinary person.

In the end, both he and the Cocoon of the End suffered heavy losses, or rather, Anliang achieved a Pyrrhic victory.

Fortunately, Anliang was fighting to escape the cycle of reincarnation and to avoid being crushed by the Honkai. He wasn't obsessed with power, and it was acceptable for him to become an ordinary person after achieving his goal.

only……

After Master An's true scriptures were forcibly taken by the female demon, his aching back made him wonder if it was possible to regain his power.

The existence of the final cocoon has both advantages and disadvantages.

Although it brought down a catastrophe called Honkai in order to select civilizations, it also transformed the imaginary energy on the trees into easily absorbed Honkai energy, allowing humanity to embark on the path of evolution through individual power.

Now that the Cocoon of the End is gone, it's difficult for ordinary people to even come into contact with imaginary energy, let alone make it their own.

Using the concept of fantasy novels...

The arrival of the Cocoon of the End brought about a revival of spiritual energy, allowing those with spiritual roots (Honkai energy resistance) to cultivate immortality. However, after the Cocoon was destroyed by An Liang, Earth returned to the end of the Dharma era, and the path to immortality was naturally cut off.

Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. Even someone like Kevin, who has the potential to be an emperor, can only be a wage slave in a world without the collapse.

“I have past cultivation experience, so I don’t need the filtering and transformation of the End Cocoon. I can directly absorb imaginary energy to cultivate. The problem is, where can I find imaginary energy in this ordinary world?”

Anliang shook his head helplessly.

He knew that the world was essentially a branch of the Imaginary Tree. In order to seek the power to defeat the Cocoon of the End, he even tried to climb the Imaginary Tree himself to experience firsthand the origin of this tree that had given birth to countless worlds.

The worlds born from the Tree of Imaginary Numbers are mostly imaginary spaces, where imaginary numbers are ubiquitous, but they are unsuitable for life.

The world he is currently in is one of the few real-valued spaces where life can be born. Imaginary energy may flow through this place, but it is difficult for it to truly invade the interior of the world.

"This is troublesome. Unless humanity's technology reaches the level of being able to observe imaginary space, or finds the remains of an imaginary monster that accidentally flowed into this world, there is no hope of encountering imaginary energy."

"This world is quite close to the Sea of ​​Quanta, but it's not easy to switch from the imaginary side to the quantum side. Besides, the Sea of ​​Quanta is very selective. Apart from Seele, basically no one can receive its favor."

Anliang pondered for a moment, and finally came to two words—

Whatever happens, happens!

In this degenerate age, there is no other way to embark on the path of cultivation except through an extraordinary stroke of luck.

In other words, he can only use the physical abilities of an ordinary person to fight against that bone-sucking, marrow-draining female demon.

Thinking of this, An Liang's gaze unconsciously fell on the beauty beside him.

"Hmm, Anliang, good morning~"

Perhaps awakened by the noise Anliang made, Alicia rubbed her sleepy eyes, and then seemed to notice something.

"Hmm, you look a bit tired!"

"Don't you have any idea why I look so haggard?"

An Liang rubbed his temples, his slightly narrowed dark eyes making Alicia feel a little guilty.

The girl sat up in bed, her silk nightgown slipping off her smooth shoulders, inadvertently revealing a glimpse of her deep, white chest.

And this is precisely the culprit that drained Anliang's body!

"Ahem, you can't blame Miss Fairy for this. You went into the bathroom with her willingly..."

Alicia leaned closer, hugged Anliang's arm, and protested.

"It was indeed voluntary at first, but only at the beginning!"

An Liang, his face dark, flicked the girl's forehead with his finger. "Five times, a full five times! I told you to stop on the third time, but you little vixen insisted on continuing!"

He's not some harem character from a doujinshi, possessing exaggerated output and stamina. Besides, a man's best experience is only during the first few times; after that, it can actually be painful.

Anliang is only feeling a little weak right now, thanks to his habit of exercising in the morning, which makes him physically fitter than most people.

If someone is physically weak, after five sessions they might not even be able to get out of bed today.

"Hehehe, isn't this a rare opportunity?"

Alicia shrank back, looking both unreasonable and self-righteous, "It's been a long time since we took a bath together, so Miss Fairy wants to get more intimate and try some things we've never experienced before!"

"Sometimes I really wonder if you're a fairy or a succubus..."

An Liang looked at Alicia, then touched his aching lower back, and couldn't help but complain, "Pink hair, pink eyes, if you add a heart-shaped tail, isn't this the classic succubus look?!"

"Then... I'll cosplay as a succubus next time and help you solve it?"

Alicia's beautiful eyes lit up, and she asked tentatively.

Although she is a pure and innocent pink fairy, there seems to be a surprising and exciting contrast in her disguise as a dark and seductive succubus who ruthlessly exploits her fiancé.

No, why are you suddenly interested?

Faced with Alicia's suggestion, Anliang paused for a moment, then said with a pained expression.

“Alicia, you’ve changed. Before, when I said you were like a succubus, you would argue back, but now all you think about is role-playing. You’ve become so decadent…”

"But isn't it you, Anliang, who corrupted the fairy lady who was as pure as a blank sheet of paper?"

Alicia's long hair flowed freely, her red lips were slightly parted, and her pretty face radiated a crystal-clear glow in the sunlight.

"Originally, Miss Fairy didn't understand eroticism. It was because of you, Miss Fairy, that she became interested in these things. So, you have to take good care of Miss Fairy and satisfy her desires, okay?"

"So, I brought this on myself?"

Anliang met the girl's beautiful pink and blue eyes, but was defeated in no time. Amid the girl's giggles, he helped himself off the bed.

Well, there's no way to subdue this female demon for the time being.

Now that things have come to this, I should think about what dishes to cook for lunch to boost my virility... Since I can't cultivate with the concept of "imaginary numbers," I can only use food supplements to replenish my body's deficiencies.
