Romance Game: Embrace of the Inhuman

Chapter 80: Deep Sisterly Affection


[Tip: Would you like to play the current score to obtain the Sound of Destiny?]

Lin Qianxuan silently chose yes.

[Chaotic Heaven] was played.

The background music emerged, the rhythm was fast, urgent, yet steady.

It felt like rain striking banana leaves, or like a thousand ripples arising in a calm lake.

It seemed turbulent, yet was merely the inevitable changes within the vast natural world, regardless of urgency or intensity, all were under control.

[The power of the Sound of Destiny has transformed your eyes, allowing you to glimpse certain possibilities amidst the chaos.]

[Simultaneously, your perception has been greatly enhanced, allowing you to sense subtle changes within the Divine Machine, and your Divine Energy has undergone a transformation, enabling it to exert power far beyond its limits within the Divine Machine.]

On the screen, the game character and Gongsun Yue had already redressed.

The surrounding fog had also dissipated.

Though following the path of an evil strategy route, the goal was evidently achieved.

He completely conquered Gongsun Yue.

Obtaining her Sound Talisman, as well as the Sound of Destiny.

The effect of the Sound Talisman was increased efficiency in Refining God.

And the Sound of Destiny advanced the [Eyes of Death] to the [Eyes of the Muddled Heaven].

These eyes no longer saw "Death Mark," but "Mark of Fate."

Simultaneously possessing a powerful Divine Energy feature that could drive the Divine Machine at tenfold efficiency.

Lin Qianxuan immediately had the game character use the newly advanced Eyes of the Muddled Heaven.

No change occurred on the game character, nor did the screen turn grey.

"What's going on? Skills misfire? Wait, does it need a target?"

Lin Qianxuan suddenly seemed to realize something.

The usage of the Purpose of Death always required a general target to accurately see the Death Mark.

So the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven should be the same.

"Then let's casually look at the Fate Mark of that stone!"

Lin Qianxuan issued the command, and the game character's gaze fell on the nearby stone.

In the next moment, the game screen changed, two scenes flashed by.

The game character raised a hand and used Profound Light Art to break the stone.

Another scene showed Water Manipulation smashing it.

[You used the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven to peer into the Fate Marks of the stone, glimpsing from destiny the two easiest possibilities for you.]

"Hmm? Easiest possibilities? Could Fate Mark imply seeing possibilities?" Lin Qianxuan muttered with some understanding.

He seemed to grasp the function of the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven.

Isn't this just an Eye of Divination?

Subsequently, Lin Qianxuan tried a few more times, discovering this to be true.

It indeed was an Eye of Divination.

However, it consumed a lot of Divine Energy, even small issues could deplete half of his Purple Mansion's Divine Energy.

The more difficult the task, the greater the consumption, the harder it was to see the Fate Mark.

Even some Fate Marks remained unseen by the game character.

For instance, the Fate Mark of the universe's destruction was hard to glimpse.

When faced with such issues, the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven simply didn't activate.

According to the game character's own feeling, the size of that Fate Mark was too vast, far exceeding his own capability to forcibly observe.

Lin Qianxuan lacked the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven, unable to understand specifically.

Could only roughly guess the game character's cultivation was too low.

As for the Divine Energy enhancing the Divine Machine's efficiency tenfold, that was literal.

Moreover, it strengthened all aspects.

The Divine Energy consumption for the Divine Machine injection was reduced by ninety percent, and the Divine Machine's effect was unreasonably enhanced.

For example, in Gongsun Yue's [Rebirth], after the game character injected Divine Energy, the healing effect of Spiritual Liquid was enhanced tenfold.

Reviving the dead flesh and bones was still impossible, as that's beyond the Divine Machine's functions.

But any wounds could nearly instantly heal, far surpassing its previous strength.

This was something Gongsun Yue herself stated.

She originally went crazy with the game character, was somewhat immobile, but after drinking the Spiritual Liquid, instantly recovered.

Uncertain how strong this blessing would be when used elsewhere.

Lin Qianxuan progressed the plot.

The rebel forces regrouped, and the game character and Gongsun Yue returned to the squad.

Gongsun Ying repeatedly glanced at the game character and Gongsun Yue, her gaze slightly complex.

For some reason, Lin Qianxuan felt she wanted to say: I came first!

But evidently, Gongsun Ying wouldn't act up at such a moment.

She always prioritized the larger picture.

Her personal and romantic matters were always deferred.

What followed was the familiar plot for Lin Qianxuan.

The game character activated Myriad Forms, Water Manipulation formed a bridge, and slayed the ugly fish attempting to ambush the crew in the moat.

Upon arriving at the Imperial City projection, Gongsun Yue sought the entrance.

Lin Qianxuan intended for the game character to follow, only for Gongsun Yue to grasp the game character's hand.

[Gongsun Yue (looking at you): Brother Lin, go find sister, she also needs care right now.]

Feelings are selfish.

But Gongsun Yue also regarded some things more important than her feelings.

That was her sister.

As the sister who has always protected her, Gongsun Ying's position in her heart supersedes her own personal feelings.

Gongsun Ying didn't hide very well, and Gongsun Yue, being keenly perceptive, obviously noticed her sister's little emotions instantly.

So she chose such a "self-sacrificing" way to hand the game character over to her sister.

[Lin Qianxuan (raising an eyebrow): Yue'Er, is this really okay?]

[Gongsun Yue (pretending to be angry): Enough, don't think I don't know what you said to my sister, she told me everything!]

Lin Qianxuan didn't expect that Gongsun Ying would tell Gongsun Yue the things the game character said.

Isn't he exposed then?

The original character setting instantly collapsed!

Now he's become a playboy...

However, judging by Gongsun Yue's look, it's clear she's more helpless than angry.

After all, the game character, though flirtatious, did accomplish something.

He truly rescued people from danger.

[Lin Qianxuan (silent): Sorry...]

[Gongsun Yue (turning slightly discontentedly, looking back at you): Young Master Lin, save your apologies for later! If you dare to upset my sister, I won't let you off easily!]

After saying that, Gongsun Yue left.

Lin Qianxuan originally wanted to advance the plot directly by fighting monsters.

After all, all the necessary steps had been taken.

But now thinking about it, if these are all future experiences that need to be faced, then Gongsun Ying is also a living person, and he cannot ignore the feelings of the characters in the process just for the ultimate goal.

Even if he's flirtatious, he needs to have some sense of responsibility.

Since he's initiated affection, he must take responsibility.

Immediately, Lin Qianxuan directed the game character to find Gongsun Ying.

She was leaning against the wall alone, quietly cultivating by operating her cultivation techniques.

Seeing the game character arrive, she seemed a bit uncomfortable.

[Gongsun Ying (forcing a smile): Young Master Lin....]

[Lin Qianxuan (sitting beside Gongsun Ying): Yue'Er sent me here.]

[Gongsun Ying (looking down): Yue'Er always does such unnecessary things, compared to me, Yue'Er is more suited for you, Young Master Lin. She's much smarter, gentler and cuter, unlike me––not good-looking and extremely clumsy.....]

[Lin Qianxuan (reaching out to lift Gongsun Ying's cheek): Miss Ying, you're also very beautiful, I really like you.]

[Gongsun Ying (a bit stunned, gazing at you): Young Master Lin, you're way too close....]

[Lin Qianxuan (seriously): Can I come a bit closer?]

Gongsun Ying did not answer, her face only slightly turning red.

The affection levels were maxed out, and Lin Qianxuan no longer hesitated, directly inputting the command.

(Kiss her.)

On the screen, the game character leaned in for a gentle kiss, and Gongsun Ying didn't resist, even closed her eyes to cooperate.

When the game character let go of holding Gongsun Ying's cheeks, she blushed, not knowing where to look.

[Gongsun Ying (gazing at the ground, flushed): Young Master Lin, don't let Yue'Er down.]

[Lin Qianxuan (puzzled): And what about you?]

[Gongsun Ying (pretending to be calm, looking at you): Young Master Lin, for now, the priority is to end the Impure Calamity.]

Shifting the topic?

This trick won't work on me!

[Lin Qianxuan (looking aside): The Impure Calamity is your issue, I'm not from this world, I can leave after a while. If it weren't for you, Miss Ying, and Yue'Er, I wouldn't want to risk my life helping with such matters.]

[Gongsun Ying (shocked): Young Master Lin, you....]

The game character initially had a gallant and righteous attitude when joining the Rebel Army.

Now, with such a smooth change in attitude, it's apparent that Gongsun Ying is a bit taken aback.

[Lin Qianxuan (smiling): I can continue helping, but you'll have to smile more for me, Miss Ying.]

[Gongsun Ying (dazed): Just that?]

[Lin Qianxuan (nodding): Just that, I want to see you smile now, Miss Ying.]

[Gongsun Ying (tugging the corners of her mouth into a smile): Is this okay?]

[Lin Qianxuan (smiling and nodding): Yes, Miss Ying, you have a beautiful smile. Now I'm motivated again to suppress the Impure Calamity.]

This combo move is called 'psychological gap'.

When the other person thinks you're about to make an excessive demand, just teasing her a bit.

She'll realize you're not as bad or over-the-top as imagined.

Instead, she'll feel she's misunderstood you, being a bit overboard herself.

It's the same exploitative strategy using guilt.

Of course, this move only works on females with a certain affection level, and the use of a dominant position, otherwise, it's negatively effective.

[Gongsun Ying (laughing out loud, then quickly stifling it): Young Master Lin, you must never bully Yue'Er in the future. She's very introverted and hides her injuries, fearing others would worry…..]

[Lin Qianxuan (laughing): Then I'll bully you instead.]

[Gongsun Ying (hesitating for a moment, then nodding): Just make sure Yue'Er doesn't suffer any grievances.]

"Huh?"

Lin Qianxuan was just joking around.

He didn't expect Gongsun Ying to nod, making him seem like some bad guy threatening the two sisters.

These sisters really do take care of each other to the extreme.

Frankly, if it weren't like this, he'd have a hard time winning them both over.

Those plastic sisterhoods would've likely fought by now.

He'd have to go to great lengths to reconcile them.

The sisterly bond really moved him.

So, the world-saving mission must be executed beautifully and cleanly to be worthy of their favor.
