[Name: Vill-V]
[Charm: 18]
[Description: Deputy Head of World Serpent Group's Equipment Development Department. A genius with split personalities. Eccentric personality but powerful research capabilities. Recommended for capture.]
[Affection: 40]
[Bond Mission 1: You have successfully attracted the genius's attention. However, attention alone is not enough. In her eyes, you are just a piece of experimental material. You need to make her curious about you. (Completed)]
[Mission Requirement: Arouse Vill-V's curiosity about you.]
[Reward: Free Attribute Points x2. Talent: [Thought Acceleration (Excellent): Your Spirit recovery speed is increased]. Strategy Reward: Paragon Points x50, Toxic Points x50.]
Although Simon was too lazy to roast the scumbag System for encouraging him to capture every girl he met, he still couldn't help but condemn it.
Is she curious about me? No! She just craves my body! She is despicable!
However, Vill-V's parting words forced Simon to think seriously. He had to list everyone in the World Serpent Group who might make a move on him.
Adopting the principle of "presume the enemy is numerous," he treated everyone as a suspect. Thus, he compiled the List of People Who Might Lock Him in a Dark Room:
Eden: Although mentally stable, she is a drunkard. And she hangs out with Elysia every day. Her logic is unpredictable. She might even do something like holding Simon down on the bed for Elysia.
Mobius: Haha. No need to elaborate. The one with the highest Yandere potential.
Aponia: Looks serious and solemn, but her "gravity" is immense. Plus, she studied psychology. People who study psychology have dirty hearts. Worthy of vigilance.
Sakura: Looks like the one with the fewest desires, but might have strong possessiveness.Simon didn't know how he could provoke her, but she went on the list just in case.
Vill-V: Already made her move openly. Confirmed threat.
Elysia: Greatness needs no elaboration.
Looking at it this way... apart from the mascot Pardo and the youngest Griseo, don't I have to guard against EVERYONE?!
(Table flip!)
Eh? Wait. Did I forget someone?
Simon scratched his head.
At that moment, a certain unnamed Celestial from Shenzhou sneezed.
Whatever. That's it. [Simon's List of Arch-Enemies] is complete!
Damn it. Are there really so many people coveting my chastity?!
Simon kept a straight face, almost laughing out loud... (Strike that). I mean, he was overwhelmed with grief.
It can't be helped. Who told me to be so charming?
Although unconfirmed, Simon very "Toxically" generated the thought: "They all like me."
There must be something wrong with the World Serpent Group. Otherwise, why would they all have such high Affection for me?
You have to understand, Simon's high Affection with Mei, Kiana, Bronya, and even Seele was cultivated over time. But the people at World Serpent? He only hung out with Kevin. He avoided Elysia like the plague. He only talked business with Vill-V. Where did all this Affection come from?
Suspicious. Ten out of ten—no, nine out of ten—suspicious.
But before Simon could investigate further, a knock came at his office door.
"Mr. Simon, the scheduled visitor has arrived early. Should I...?"
She came after all?
Simon's expression turned serious. He sat upright behind his desk, adjusting his posture.
"Let her in."
A career woman dressed in office attire pushed the door open. Her tight outfit outlined her figure vividly. Despite her apparent youth, her gestures revealed a mature charm that rivaled Mei's.
To think you, the youngest of the main trio, could display such maturity just to capture me... You Kaslana Duck, you guy...
It was Bronya · Mature Version.
The moment Bronya walked in and saw Simon posing in the classic Gendo Ikari stance (hands clasped over mouth), she knew this guy was playing "Deep on the surface, rotting memes on the inside." She immediately called him out.
"Even facing me, you have to activate 'Deep Mode'? You Husky-Simon, you guy."
Exactly. Having gamed with Simon frequently, she knew every rotten meme he loved. A mere Simon? She could break his defense easily!
"Ugh... Damn it!"
Simon didn't expect Bronya to narrate his internal theater so accurately. He responded flusteredly.
"The family that came up with 'Husky-Simon' must have hired a 'Husky-High' genius!"
"Heh. At least it's better than some brat who only knows how to recite rotten memes."
Bronya crossed her arms, radiating the surplus confidence of a victor.
Simon, retreating in defeat, could only change the subject.
"During work hours, let's try to use titles—uh... Representative Bronya, are there any new requirements for the Anti-Entropy order?"
Hmph. He ran away as expected. But it doesn't matter. The familiar dynamic has been established. Simon has likely lowered his guard. Now I just need to capture him step by step.
Bronya sat in the chair opposite Simon. Her fleshy thighs crossed over each other, creating a slight indentation where they pressed together. Fortunately, the desk wasn't transparent, or Simon wouldn't have been able to look away.
She deliberately propped her chin up with one hand, emphasizing the roundness of her already ample chest, while raising the index finger of her other hand.
"Correct. But the specific requirements are complex, and there are special demands regarding craftsmanship. We should go to the site and communicate directly with the factory manager."
Nice ball.
No.
Simon was dazzled by Bronya's "ball handling" and had to struggle to shift his attention away.
"Cough. That works too. Shall we leave now?"
"Yes."
The corner of Bronya's mouth lifted slightly.
Heh heh. The factory is near the ME Corp building. The weather isn't too hot. I can legitimately ask Simon to walk part of the way with me. And during that private time... Although Galgames don't make up a large portion of my library, I've played hundreds of them. I'm not like that fish-lipped Paramecium Kiana. With my rich experience, capturing a duplicitous guy like Simon will be too easy~
"Hmm? You're going to the factory for an on-site exchange? Why don't I call for the company car? I'll come along too. After all, it's a big order from Anti-Entropy. We should communicate properly."
Hearing that mature, steady voice, Bronya almost punched the table.
Damn it! I showed weakness earlier and even came early to kidnap Simon! Why did Mei-nee still arrive in time?!
Mei-nee, I do not miss you! (Meaning: I don't want to see you right now!)
"What do you think, honey?"
Of course I know Bronya looks the youngest but is actually a bigger threat than Kiana. My spies in the company aren't just for show~
Mei walked behind Simon with the surplus confidence of the Main Wife, meeting Bronya's gaze with a smile.
Bronya. In the sport of stealing men, you still need to practice.
The Champion of the "Stealing Man Competition" from six years ago declared her dominance.
