After the proposal, the Valkyrie came to the door

He should have kept quiet about it; the moment he mentioned the engagement, Hei Xi'er's face immediately fell, and she spoke in an icy tone.

"There are plenty of married men in this world who cheat on their wives. You're only engaged. How do I know you might have a fiancée and still plan to flirt with Bronya and toy with her feelings?!"

"That's incredibly rude of you! I'm all about pure love!"

An Liang retorted in a very serious tone.

If someone says he's incompetent, An Liang will just smile calmly, but if someone questions his fidelity in love, then An Liang will have to give them a good talking-to.

He has cycled through reincarnation hundreds of times, and he knows the Valkyries of the Hyperion inside and out, from their personalities and hobbies to how to win them over.

If Anliang wanted to, he could date every single Valkyrie at the same time and build a huge harem.

However, Anliang did not do that.

He adhered to monogamy and kept his distance from other Valkyries no matter who he was dating.

Furthermore, throughout the many cycles, Anliang only had six romantic relationships, most of which were due to unexpected events such as being reversed by the Valkyrie. Otherwise, Anliang might not have dated the Valkyrie before defeating the Cocoon of the End.

Because he didn't want to repeatedly experience the pain of being forgotten by his lover, a feeling that was more unbearable for Anliang than dying again and again.

In conclusion, it is not difficult to see that...

Anliang pursues love on a spiritual level and will not indulge in physical desires, so no matter how tempting the beauty, he will not betray Alicia.

A true god of pure love!

But for Hei Xier, the more devoted An Liang is to love, the more irritated she feels.

In her past life, she was very satisfied with Anliang's devotion to Xier, feeling that it was what Anliang should do. But now, Hei Xi only hates that Anliang is not a scumbag who is lustful at first sight!

The world has changed so much, why is the captain still so stubborn when it comes to love?!

The girl gritted her teeth, met An Liang's clear eyes, and the two personalities exchanged thoughts, finally letting out a cold snort.

"Every man claims to be in a relationship based on pure love, but isn't the most common theme in adult films the NTR (Netorare)? Besides, people change. Even if you have nothing to do with Bronya now, how do I know you might change your mind in the future?!"

"Well... no one can predict the future. I can only say that I believe I will never change my mind."

An Liang paused for a moment, then answered with a wry smile.

He could understand the girl's distrust; after all, Bronya was Seele's most important family member, and Seele certainly didn't want to see her sister possibly get hurt.

Unfortunately, Seele first met him in Bronya's bed.

Perhaps ordinary people could listen to his explanation, but if the yandere Kurohime were so easily persuaded, he wouldn't have been dragged into the basement by Kurohime several times during their relationship.

It seems I'll have to use some persuasion, or find a way to get the well-behaved and sensible Bai Xi out...

An Liang pondered silently in his heart, then his pupils dilated in shock as he saw Hei Xier release one of the hands that was holding him down and instead take off the dress on her delicate body.

"No, no, Seele, what are you doing?!"

"Heh, didn't you say you're into pure love? In that case, it's okay for me to take off my clothes in front of you, right?"

Hei Xi casually untied a belt, her movements elegant yet subtly alluring.

An Liang immediately turned his head away, refusing to look, but he still caught a glimpse of the moment the dress slipped off the girl's shoulder. Her delicate, smooth skin, like white jade, shone brightly in the sunlight, exuding youthful vitality and beauty.

If someone lacks self-control, they'd probably stare wide-eyed...

Unfortunately, Anliang had too many tastes to appreciate, and his willpower and experience far surpassed those of ordinary people. His heart was only slightly stirred, but he quickly returned to calm after a few seconds.

"Even if you want to test whether I can maintain pure love, Seele, you don't need to do it yourself, do you?"

"Who said I was testing you?"

A smile curved at the corners of Hei Xi's mouth, her rosy cheeks showing more excitement than shyness.

An Liang immediately had a bad feeling.

If Seele wasn't trying to test him, then why was the girl untying the sash of her dress?

Seeing An Liang's confused expression, Hei Xi'er didn't waste any words and directly answered with practical actions. Her soft body, protected by the quantum sea, burst out with absolute power. With a simple flip, she forcibly made An Liang switch places with her on the sofa.

"Well, that's good!"

Hei Xi'er winked her beautiful eyes at An Liang, smiled gently, and then her expression quickly became weak and pitiful, with tears welling up in her eyes as if An Liang had done something bad to her.

Considering their current posture, wait, could it be—

Anliang's pupils contracted, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a crisp shutter sound.

Click!

Blackie put her phone away with satisfaction, then showed him a clear photo.

The girl in the photo is lying on the sofa, her clothes are disheveled, revealing most of her shoulders and chest, and her expression is full of panic and fear. An Liang is mostly in profile, which avoids his shocked expression. All that can be seen is that he is pressing down on the girl in a bed-slamming position.

Oh no, this is the moment when journalism truly shines!

This photo is so suggestive that anyone would probably think that Anliang had lost his bestial instincts and wanted to rape Xier... But the reality is quite the opposite; he was the one being forced!

However, An Liang knew very well what was going on.

No one would believe it if someone told them that a grown man was forced into a bed-kissing pose by a frail young girl.

There is no greater reason than this: one cannot defend oneself even with a hundred words!

Anliang couldn't possibly seize Seele's phone by force and delete the photos, unless the world were to immediately revive, granting him the power to overcome the protection of the Quanta Sea.

But that's impossible. After all, he destroyed the Cocoon of the End, and no one will ever release imaginary energy onto Earth again... Damn it, Cocoon of the End, I suddenly miss you a little!

Anliang's expression kept changing, finally revealing a look of utter dejection as if all his plans had failed.

When Hei Xi'er saw An Liang's expression, a look of pleasure flashed in her beautiful eyes.

She released Anliang with a victorious air, crossed her legs and sat on the sofa, tidying her clothes as she spoke slowly and deliberately.

“Anliang, you probably don’t want Bronya or your fiancée to see this photo, do you?”

PS: It's Blackie. She's got the captain's weakness in her hands. She's definitely going to coerce the captain into depravity like the wife in the NTR!

I didn't originally intend to write it this way; I just wanted to create some romantic scenes between Big Duck and Seele. But after finishing it, I felt it wasn't twisted or exciting enough, so I had a new inspiration and deleted it to rewrite it. That's why the updates have been slow... Ahem, the author will try to write more to make up for it in the future!

Alicia Side Story: Encounter ①

The torrential rain created ripples on the lake's surface.

Anliang listened to the soothing sound of the rain pattering in his ears, opened his dead fish eyes, and slowly swam from the lake to the shore, dragging a pink-haired girl in his hand.

After some effort, Anliang pushed the girl ashore, while he himself stepped out of the water with ease, and then asked a question.

"Hey, are you okay?"

"Cough, I'm fine, cough cough!"

The pink-haired girl lay sprawled on the ground in a disheveled state. Just as she was about to answer, she couldn't help but cough, spitting out several mouthfuls of lake water.

You clearly drank quite a bit just now...

An Liang shook his head, squatted down and patted the girl's back, helping her spit out water while complaining.

"Hey, even if you want to catch fish, you don't have to just jump in, do you?"

Anliang had never seen such a reckless girl.

Not long ago, because the Cocoon of the End reset the world at the last moment, his state regressed to when he first transmigrated, and he became an ordinary person with no money and no status.

Fortunately, his experience and skills were still there, and Anliang, who was a little hungry, naturally set his sights on the fish in the park's lake.

These lake fish, which are fed by people from time to time, are all plump and strong, and not very wary. They also need to surface to breathe on rainy days, so it's incredibly easy for Anliang to catch them with his bare hands.

He only needed to observe briefly before he caught a large grass carp that looked like it had heatstroke.

Anliang intended to clean the fish on the spot, but when he turned around, he found a pink-haired girl approaching him with sparkling eyes, as if she was eyeing the fish in his hand.

Are you here to catch fish too?

Anliang didn't pay much attention and asked casually.

Immediately afterwards, the girl nodded with interest, and following his example, bent down on the shore and scooped him up, then smoothly plunged into the lake, splashing water as much as the Philippine diving team.

"Cough cough, I... I just lost my balance."

With Anliang's help, the girl vomited up most of the water that had entered her lungs and explained, her face pale.

She was simply interested in An Liang's ability to catch fish with his bare hands and thought she would try it on the shore. However, the ground was slippery due to the rain, and she lost her footing while catching the fish. As a result, it looked as if she had jumped into the lake on her own.

The worst part was that because it was an accidental fall into the water, she choked on a mouthful of water and immediately lost consciousness. If Anliang hadn't pulled her up in time, she might have been in serious trouble even though she could swim.

"I didn't expect this to happen. Cough cough, thank you so much for everything just now."

The girl, panting in the rain, clutched her soaked clothes and thanked him in a slightly trembling voice.

"Then you should thank me properly... You're heavier than I thought, it was quite a struggle to get you ashore."

Seeing that the girl was alright, Anliang withdrew his hand from patting her back, his tone calm and straightforward.

To bluntly tell a beautiful young woman that she is overweight upon first meeting is undoubtedly a sign of low emotional intelligence and is somewhat impolite.

However, Anliang felt incredibly empty inside after just emerging from the cocoon of the end. He adopted a passive attitude towards everything in the outside world, saying whatever came to mind and completely disregarding everything.

Furthermore, when a boy treats a pretty girl well, it's mostly because he wants to get closer to her and fulfill some ulterior motives.

But Anliang didn't think that way...

Although the girl in front of him was beautiful and flawless, Anliang also knew many Valkyries whose looks were no less than hers.

Anliang, who is currently lacking even the motivation to search for the Valkyrie who once accompanied him, how could he possibly have feelings for a girl he just met?!

Since he had no intention of making the girl his wife, even the most beautiful girl was just a stranger in Anliang's eyes, so he could just say whatever he wanted.

Anyway, he didn't say anything wrong.

The pink-haired girl was about 1.6 meters tall and probably weighed over 100 pounds, which is definitely on the heavier side for a woman.

"Ugh! Miss Fairy isn't fat at all. It must be because her clothes got heavier from being in the water. I... I'm actually very slim... Achoo!"

Faced with An Liang's evaluation, the girl widened her beautiful pink and blue eyes, pouted and wanted to argue, but she sneezed halfway through her sentence and her body trembled involuntarily.

It doesn't snow in Changkong City in November, but the temperature is only in the teens.

The girl was soaked to the bone, and the rain was causing her to lose heat. The chill began to seep into her body, making her shiver.

If this continues, the girl will definitely suffer a serious illness afterward.

An Liang frowned, looking at the pink-haired girl whose voice was trembling slightly, and asked, "Where do you live? Can someone come pick you up? You urgently need to take a hot shower and change into dry clothes!"

"I...I came to Changkong City alone as a tourist..."

The girl sat on the ground, instinctively hugging herself tightly, and said, trying to suppress the chill.

"Can I use my phone to call a car to take you back to the hotel?" Anliang suggested.

"I'm afraid that won't work. My phone got wet and won't turn on. But it's okay, the hotel is nearby. I can walk back by myself."

The girl pursed her lips and gritted her teeth, trying to stand up from the ground.

She had barely lifted herself off the ground when her body felt as heavy as if it were filled with lead, and her legs gave way, causing her to stagger back down.

Only then did the girl realize how weak her body had become from falling into the water and losing temperature.

This is bad, what should I do? Should I ask the man in front of me for help? But he seems so indifferent...

The girl pondered, her voice trembling, when she heard the man click his tongue in slight annoyance.

Anliang picked up the large grass carp he had thrown on the shore and gave the struggling fish a good whack as it tried to leap and splash.

After putting the peacefully sleeping grass carp into a found plastic bag, Anliang picked up the girl's umbrella, walked to her side, and asked with narrowed eyes.

"Tell me, what's the hotel's address?"

"……what?"

"The hotel address? Didn't you say it was nearby? Since we're both fishermen, I'll take you there."

An Liang said casually, his posture of carrying fish in one hand and holding an umbrella in the other gave him a somewhat dashing air.

The girl stared at An Liang for several seconds, then said softly, "After leaving the park, it's about a kilometer to the hotel."

"It's not that far, but can you walk a kilometer in your condition?"

Anliang looked at the girl, who had difficulty even standing up, with a questioning gaze.
