"This... this is probably not appropriate!"
Just a moment ago, the dignified Valkyrie was now covered in a cold sweat, terrified that this guy would pounce on her and tear off her clothes.
After all, before this man became a Herrscher, she, as an S-rank Valkyrie, could still fight him with her equipment and experience.
But after this guy acquired a Stigma and a Herrscher Core, his strength was no longer what it used to be.
Resistance was futile.
Suicide was not an option.
She couldn't beat him in a fight, and even if she slit her own throat, he would just save her.
To make matters worse, this guy held her dark history in his hands, completely having her under his thumb from every angle.
Rita almost felt a sense of despair...
'Maybe I should just give in to this guy. Lying down and enjoying it is more comfortable than standing up and resisting.'
But the thought of Durandal waiting for her back at Schicksal HQ reignited an endless well of motivation within her!
'Lady Durandal... is still waiting for me!'
The dignified Valkyrie's expression instantly turned cold. She turned and was about to bolt for the door. "Let Rita arrange her own life. Thank you for your concern."
An arm blocked Rita's path. "Hey, don't be such a stranger. We're not going to sleep in the same bed, just live in the same dorm."
A dorm has several rooms, which in theory could guarantee Rita's privacy.
But even the horny young Brian, with his blood rushing to his head, knew that this alone was not enough to dispel Rita's worries.
The man continued, "See that room opposite ours?"
Rita looked over but didn't notice anything special.
"That's Mei and the others' dorm. With Mei here, you should be able to rest assured, right?"
Rita: "..."
Although she was the woman Raiden Mei was hostile towards, it was precisely because of this that Raiden Mei would not tolerate this man venting his vigorous energy on her.
At this moment, Raiden Mei's radiance was sublimated, becoming her savior from harm.
Unable to escape, Rita immediately came up with another plan. "There's no need to be so tense. I just wanted to go see Miss Mei."
"After all, for the foreseeable future, we will be neighbors who see each other frequently. We need to communicate and build our relationship."
She wasn't running; she was just trying to find a talisman that could guarantee she would leave the Far East Branch in one piece, without getting knocked up!
To this, Brian just advised, "Mei might not be available right now. I think you'd better pick another time."
Not available? What does that mean?
Rita believed that by the time Raiden Mei was available, she would already have hearts in her eyes, making an unspeakable V-sign.
"No need. Miss Mei and I hit it off right away. I don't think she would refuse my visit."
As soon as she finished speaking, Rita unhesitatingly twisted the handle of the three-hour dorm room and walked in as if her feet were on the wind.
"Miss Mei, I trust you don't mind my uninvited visit?"
In the room, Kiana Kaslana, who had just returned to confess her transgressions, was facing the arduous choice between a durian and a kitchen knife.
She never expected this bad woman, Rita, to appear at this very moment, making the white-haired fluffball feel as if she had seen her savior descend from the heavens.
S-rank Valkyrie! Rita Rossweisse!
You are my eternal god!
The sudden turn of events interrupted Raiden Mei's punishment of the husky, causing the girl to frown in displeasure. "Rita, what are you doing here?"
Her relationship with Rita wasn't that good, not to the point where she would come to visit her. Besides, the two had been at odds just a while ago.
In Raiden Mei's eyes, Rita was like a weasel visiting a chicken—up to no good!
Rita showed no reaction at all to Raiden Mei's hostility.
Or to put it another way, it was precisely Raiden Mei's reaction that put her at ease.
Only with Raiden Mei's domineering possessiveness could she ensure her complete retreat from the 'Herrscher of Procreation'.
Rita didn't hesitate and laid all her cards on the table. "Miss Mei, I know that you and my ex-boyfriend are very close."
Raiden Mei's brow furrowed. She felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.
'Did this woman come to me specifically to declare war?'
The battle between the ex-girlfriend and the current girlfriend seemed to be just around the corner!
The white-haired fluffball, who was choosing between a kitchen knife and a durian, had her eyes light up. She felt that this Rita was not as annoying as she had been in Nagazora City.
Just for saving her from this predicament, she was determined to make this friend!
Rita continued, "Lady Theresa has put your boyfriend in charge of my entire itinerary during my time at the Far East Branch. While I am deeply honored, I feel somewhat unworthy of the favor."
The girl's brow relaxed. This woman didn't seem as aggressive as she had imagined.
"In order to complete the mission assigned by the Overseer, I need to stay at the Far East Branch for a while. He has arranged a place for me to stay, but I feel you have the right to know."
Having said everything she wanted to say in one go, Rita finally felt the knot in her chest loosen.
The girl with short flaxen hair stepped aside, allowing Raiden Mei's gaze to focus on the room across the hallway.
A man was there, smiling at her.
Normally, Raiden Mei would definitely have returned an affectionate gaze.
But today, here...
"You're saying he wants you to live together?"
A man and a woman, alone in a room!
Even if it didn't result in a new life, it would at least result in bags and bags of it!
Kiana, hearing this, also had her eyes light up. It felt like finding a pillow just when you're getting sleepy.
She had wanted that lecherous guy to suffer a huge misfortune. She hadn't expected that although her plan had been a major failure, this guy had exposed himself in front of Mei and even brought his little mistress home.
Heaven is truly on my side!
The days of riding Mei are just around the corner!
Rita: "That's right!"
Raiden Mei's possessiveness is so strong, this is really great for her!
Rita was ecstatic, thankful that she could finally become an assembly line and a cream puff.
But...
"I think it's fine. As his ex-girlfriend, don't you think so?"
Rita: "..."
Kiana: "..."
Two dumbfounded faces, a pair of confused expressions.
Wasn't there supposed to be a tragic catfight scene? Wasn't Raiden Mei supposed to monopolize all the cream and cake?
Why...
Rita Rossweisse could not understand.
The Valkyrie was still stunned, but the girl with long violet-purple hair had already walked up and affectionately took Rita's somewhat cold hands. "Rita, I know that guy is very rough, but you two had a relationship in the past, didn't you? I think you'll be able to adapt."
As she spoke, Raiden Mei patted the back of Rita's hand, making the Valkyrie even more confused.
"..."
So...
Why did it turn out like this?
It was supposed to be that Raiden Mei would protect her chastity for the sake of her own position as the main partner. It was supposed to be that she could leave the Far East Branch in one piece.
But why, when the grand finale was approaching, did everything change direction?
Rita didn't understand and could only force a smile.
She emphasized, "Miss Mei, although I am his ex-girlfriend, you are his current girlfriend."
"No matter what, I cannot overstep my bounds and encroach upon your rights and love."
This Inner World Protagonist, whoever wants him can have him!
At least at this moment, the two girls' relationship was as good as sisters for life, never to be separated.
It even left Kiana confused.
Weren't you two supposed to be love rivals, on the verge of a full-on Valkyrie-tearing brawl upon meeting?
You were just at each other's throats during dinner, and Raiden Mei even changed her outfit specifically to disrupt things.
And yet... and yet...
"..."
At least at this moment, Kiana felt like a fool who was being played with.
Orz.
Wanting to ride Mei is too hard.
Three girls, three different thoughts.
Rita and Kiana couldn't understand Raiden Mei's decision, but Raiden Mei was laughing inwardly at their ignorance.
Do you really think the title 'Inner World Protagonist' is for nothing?
Don't be fooled by how he barely looks human out of bed; in bed, he's not human at all.
That inhuman stamina and enormous volume made Raiden Mei cry out that she couldn't take it.
She had even measured her three sizes; they had actually gotten quite a bit bigger under his full exertion.
Not human! Really not human!
Although this woman Rita had the status of an ex-girlfriend, she wasn't the best white moonlight after all.
If she could get this woman to share some of the firepower for her, Raiden Mei would be more than happy.
Anyway, this woman couldn't possibly stay at the Far East Branch forever. Sooner or later, she would have to return to Schicksal HQ to be an S-rank Valkyrie. The threat was limited.
She smiled and said, "It's okay. He's a good man, and you are a beautiful girl in the prime of your youth. I think it's great for you and him to experience the 'fullness' of love a little more."
"..."
Rita opened her mouth, not knowing how to react.
Before she could come up with a new countermeasure, a terrifying embrace rapidly approached from behind.
"Mei, since you agree to let Rita stay in my dorm, I'll take her back to tidy up the room."
"Mm, go ahead, go ahead."
Holding her slender waist, Raiden Mei looked at Rita Rossweisse being dragged away and suddenly felt a little pity.
The path was narrow at first, but after a few dozen steps, it became wide enough for people to pass.
That little bitch Ana Schariac, who had sneaked a taste, was in Manila dealing with the aftermath of the last incident. Kiana and Bronya hadn't fallen into her bowl yet.
Although Raiden Mei didn't like Rita stealing her cream, for the sake of her own health, she could only share a portion with tears in her eyes.
However, although she had this little bitch Rita to share the burden for now, the day would come when this woman would have to leave.
To permanently reduce the pressure on herself, she still needed to find a long-term partner.
"Kiana, do you know what you did wrong?"
"Mei, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have seduced your boyfriend!"
The snow-haired girl stood up straight, not daring to say another word.
"Wrong! You shouldn't have seduced my boyfriend behind my back!"
The shiny blade of the knife reflected Raiden Mei's unusually cold expression.
Kiana didn't dare say another word and quickly took the durian from her hand and placed it under her own knees. "Mei, I'll kneel on this instead."
Compared to becoming Kiana, kneeling on a durian was slightly better.
A little better, but not by much.
But!
"Do you think that's the end of it?"
A sense of foreboding rose in the snow-haired girl's heart. "Mei, I've sweated for you, I've achieved merits for you, you can't do this to me!"
"You have to choose both!"
"Help, the Valkyrie Raiden Mei is killing someone!"
...
The Valkyrie dorm opposite was lively, and the horny young Brian's dorm was no different.
The S-rank Valkyrie was pulled by the hand, her eyes lifeless, as she was brought back to the room and the door was closed.
Rita's pair of deep red eyes were filled with gloom. She almost thought this guy was going to use some forceful means on her.
After all... she couldn't resist, and everyone thought there had been a relationship between them.
The arrow shot in the past had once again struck her in the knee, leaving her wanting to cry but having no tears.
However...
"Have a seat first. Just make yourself at home."
"What would you like to drink?"
The young Brian opened the fridge, and a blast of cold air hit his face.
Rita, who had been pulled onto the sofa, finally came to her senses, looking at the man's back with some confusion.
Since he had already gotten Raiden Mei's permission, according to his personality, shouldn't he have... to her...
"..."
Rita's face flushed slightly red.
Just then...
"Did you think I was going to do something outrageous to you?"
Rita couldn't see the expression on Brian's face, but she could imagine it.
It must be very detestable!
"Don't you want to? With your personality, you've probably already figured out how many children you want me to have for you, right?"
As expected of a well-traveled S-rank Valkyrie, she sure speaks boldly.
The young Brian took out two cans of orange juice and sat down next to Rita.
A playful smile appeared on his face. "Of course I want to, but I'm not a man who likes to force his will on others."
With a prerequisite: unless absolutely necessary.
The cold drink went down her throat. Rita rolled her eyes flirtatiously. "You've embarrassed me so many times in a row, ignoring my will and freedom. Doesn't that count?"
Brian: "Of course it doesn't count."
"In Nagazora City, we were enemies. The second time, at the celebration banquet, it was because of your unsettling Overseer. And this third time..."
The smile on the black-haired youth's face was particularly intriguing. "Rita, you actively kissed me in the dream, and you also placed your foot in my hands before."
"No matter how you look at it... those were your decisions, right?"
He didn't have Fenghuang Down in his hands, nor did he use Jizo Mitama to control her body.
Offering her first kiss and tender foot were all Rita's own decisions.
"That... that was..."
Opening her mouth, Rita didn't know how to refute.
Although the original intention was to cause a fire in this guy's harem, both actions came from her own will.
This was the one thing she couldn't deny.
"What's wrong, don't know how to explain?"
Rita: "..."
Turning sideways, the girl brought her knees together, choosing to speak with her back.
She couldn't win an argument against this guy, and her dark history was in his hands. The best choice was not to get entangled with him on this topic.
Rita chose to change the subject: "Where am I sleeping tonight?"
"How about my room?"
The young Brian raised an eyebrow, making a suggestion.
Rita pouted. "You'll sleep in the living room?"
If this guy slept in the living room, sleeping on his bed wasn't out of the question.
"Of course not."
It was his own room, how could it be his turn to sleep on the sofa? At the very least, he should be sleeping in the same bed as Raiden Mei.
Besides, there were still plenty of empty rooms. A little tidying up and they would be habitable. There was no need to sleep on the sofa at all.
"Then thank you for your kind offer. Rita is used to sleeping with handsome girls like Lady Durandal, which gives her a great sense of security."
"With you, Rita only feels like she's constantly testing the waters on the verge of pregnancy."
The desire for repulsion was palpable.
When there was no third party like Raiden Mei around, Rita really had nothing good to say to Brian.
In that case...
"Get some good rest. We'll talk about other things tomorrow."
As for his own resting place...
The young Brian unhesitatingly opened the door and, under Kiana's resentful gaze, walked into their dorm in a grand manner.
"Mei, Bronya isn't here tonight, and Rita is using my room. Let me crash here with you guys."
Raiden Mei, who was already in the kitchen preparing to cook, paused. Her pair of violet-glazed eyes held a resentful flavor completely different from Kiana's.
"Come on in, just remember not to touch Bronya's personal belongings."
What 'crashing in Bronya's room'? He clearly has ill intentions towards her!
This ex-girlfriend Rita is really useless. She can't even undo his belt, forcing her to bear all the vitality herself.
Raiden Mei was full of resentment and added another plate of chives and another plate of oysters to tonight's dinner.
...
Night deepened, and sleep descended...
Most of the others in the Valkyrie dorm were already asleep, with only a few waiting for a certain moment to arrive.
Brian lay with his eyes open, the moonlight reflecting in his amber pupils.
He was lost in thought when his attention was drawn by a faint sound of someone suddenly entering the room.
The snow-haired girl in her pajamas had an ethereal beauty under the moonlight. Her long, naturally flowing hair gave her a dignified temperament she usually lacked.
At this moment, Kiana Kaslana was as beautiful as her name suggested, filled with the beauty of the moon.
As long as this girl didn't speak.
"Hey! What will it take for you to stop harassing Mei!?"
On her lower abdomen, a faint pink glow flickered.
...
