Acheron! What Did You Sneakily Do to Me?!
Lin Shuang was aware of her own mental resistance, so with this in mind, Lin Shuang did not hesitate to activate the 'Mystic Seal of True Sight' in her pupils.
However, despite the flashing of the Mystic Markings, the scene before him remained unchanged, and his own senses showed no abnormalities.
Everything remains the same.
In other words, everything she sees and feels now is real.
There was no inexplicable Illusion cast upon me.
"Something feels off, like something's happened. It's not exactly a bad thing, but it's not exactly good either, it's just strange."
Lin Shuang scratched her head and expressed her feelings.
Not only did Firefly not understand this vague description, but Silver Wolf had approached nearby, also found it incomprehensible.
So they immediately started mocking:
"Didn't you always brag about your sharp intuition? Why isn't it working now?"
"I have keen intuition, not Oracle! Besides, combat intuition is not the same thing."
Firefly, standing to the side, pondered seriously and said:
"Since you don't think it's a bad thing... then it shouldn't be urgent, but it's still better to go back and check. How about we call it a day?"
Hearing Firefly's concern, Lin Shuang pursed her lips and pondered for a moment before saying:
"No, I'll just log off and take a quick look. Nothing should be wrong; I'll be right back."
Seeing this, Silver Wolf didn't say anything, but just chuckled and snorted.
"Hurry up and finish reading it, come back quickly, we're waiting for you to start the book."
But Firefly said with a concerned expression:
"After logging off, check the whole house first, and then..."
Compared to Silver Wolf, Firefly even gave a very detailed and simple explanation of some reconnaissance techniques.
Furthermore, several key areas that required special attention were highlighted.
Lin Shuang didn't find it annoying at all; she listened attentively as Firefly held her little hand.
"... besides."
As she spoke, Firefly suddenly paused, then her face flushed slightly. She raised her hand to smooth her long hair at her temples and said shyly:
Am I being a bit long-winded?
"How could that be? Firefly, your explanation is very clear."
"In short, if you sense anything is wrong, please contact me and Silver Wolf directly, and we'll come to your aid."
Firefly seemed reluctant to finish her speech, but she interrupted herself to give Lin Shuang a final word of advice.
The Silver Wolf standing to the side curled its lip, looking speechless.
Is Lin Shuang some kind of weakling? He cuts down those Fragmentum Monsters and the Destruction Legion like it's nothing, why are you so worried?
"Alright, hurry up and finish this and come back. What big deal could possibly happen on the Xianzhou?"
This wasn't the first time Lin Shuang had felt resentment towards Silver Wolf for having his game progress interrupted.
"Okay, okay, I'll be right back."
With that, Lin Shuang logged out.
And just as the infiltration into the game world was interrupted—
After her body regained its sharp senses, Lin Shuang suddenly opened her eyes!
Then, lying face down on the bed, he met Acheron's calm eyes.
"You're awake?"
His tone remained calm as always, as if nothing had happened.
It was as if her current posture of grabbing her calf and lifting one leg was fake!
"...?"
Lin Shuang's mind went blank for a moment. She stared blankly into Acheron's eyes, completely unable to comprehend the current situation...
Instinctively activating the 'Mystic Seal of True Sight', I found that nothing in front of me had changed at all.
At this moment, Lin Shuang's upper body was lying on her side on the bed, one leg was straddled by Acheron, while the other leg was held by Huang Quan's calf and bent high.
Her little feet were almost touching Acheron's face.
Not only that, she didn't even know when she had changed into a nightgown and put on a pair of semi-sheer black stockings.
The clothes that were originally close to the skin have disappeared, leaving a huge gap!
It could be said that the Acheron in front of him saw everything.
On the leg that Acheron was lifting up, a very revealing, close-fitting garment was being pulled into her small foot by Acheron.
Acheron maintained this posture, head bowed, and greeted Lin Shuang, who was now almost completely naked.
"..."
Lin Shuang was completely stunned.
She didn't even have time to think about her clothes or her strange posture.
Seeing that Lin Shuang didn't react, Acheron assumed that she had tacitly approved of his actions.
He immediately put the undergarments on Lin Shuang.
Volume 1: Chapter 87 Acheron! What did you do to me behind my back?!
Lin Shuang was completely dumbfounded.
They were stunned by the overly abstract imagery before them.
So much so that even when Acheron lifted her buttocks and put her undergarments on, she was still there.
Acheron slapped his own butt a few times.
Lin Shuang suddenly realized what was happening and tried to sit up.
Unfortunately, Acheron still held her ankle, causing her to roll over halfway and end up lying on her side.
However, lying on your side is better than lying on your stomach.
Lin Shuang's pupils dilated violently as she stared at Acheron!
Okay, okay, she was wondering what Acheron was up to before, but her Affection you has inexplicably increased a little.
Lin Shuang wondered if this person on another planet missed her or had somehow managed to win her over.
So, it turns out that you were at home, taking advantage of her not paying attention, and treating her like a dress-up doll, huh!?
You, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, Acheron, I never knew you had such a fetish!
Gepard the Honkai: Star Rail Steel? I think you're more like Kiana of the Honkai: Star Rail!
Lin Shuang stared at Acheron with trembling eyes, utterly incredulous.
I have so many questions I want to ask this person.
How did you get on the Xianzhou? When did you come back? Where did my clothes go? When did you develop this hobby? What did you just do...?
But when he looked at Acheron's nightgown attire, he was speechless.
The nightgown itself wasn't particularly alluring, but Acheron's figure was simply top-notch, and their current position was quite ambiguous.
This left Lin Shuang unsure of where to look.
Acheron wasn't in a hurry. He gently rubbed Lin Shuang's ankle through her stockings with his fingers, looking down at Lin Shuang.
After holding it in for a while, Lin Shuang finally couldn't help but pull her legs out forcefully, trying to free her body from the oppression of Acheron:
"... Let go of me first, why are you still holding me like that?"
"I won't let go."
"Ah?"
Lin Shuang was truly stumped by Acheron's immediate answer.
No, what's wrong with this person? Why did he suddenly come back to the Xianzhou? He's like a completely different person.
Is this your persona?
I tried pulling, but found that Acheron really didn't seem to be letting go, and even seemed to be pressing down further, so I had no choice but to give up for the time being.
Lin Shuang stopped resisting. After all, if Acheron really wanted to do something, he could suppress her with a single finger. What was the point of resisting?
Besides, Lin Shuang trusted that Acheron wouldn't actually do anything.
So Lin Shuang relaxed her tense waist and arms, lay back on the bed, and, maintaining this ambiguous posture, asked helplessly:
"Wait a minute, tell me first why you suddenly came back to the Xianzhou? Why didn't the Xianzhou notify me?"
Before Acheron could answer, Lin Shuang continued:
"You wouldn't happen to be a smuggled-back Xianzhou, would you...?"
After all, based on the relationship he established with the Xianzhou during the day, if Acheron had officially registered to join the Xianzhou, he should have informed Lin Shuang at least.
Lin Shuang stared intently into Acheron's eyes, and then saw him nod without hesitation.
"I sneaked in."
"..."
"As I journeyed onward, a premonition arose within me, as if... you would stir up some trouble on the Xianzhou."
"..."
Lin Shuang looked at Acheron silently, waiting for her to continue her explanation.
As a result, Acheron also fell silent, looking at Lin Shuang in silence as well.
The two stared at each other for several seconds before Lin Shuang finally lost her composure:
"Just because of this premonition, you rushed back to the Xianzhou without saying a word? You could have just sent me a video call and asked."
"... Don't you want me to come?"
Acheron blinked. She knew that if Lin Shuang found out about this, she would probably nag her a bit.
"I don't want to."
Lin Shuang's answer was equally unhesitating. She gazed into Acheron's eyes, but it was difficult to discern whether there was any emotional turmoil within those calm eyes.
"Yeah..."
Acheron was surprised to find that his mood was dropping after hearing Lin Shuang's almost thoughtless answer.
She thought she wouldn't care about this.
However, it was clear that I had guessed wrong again when it came to matters of the heart.
Acheron loosened his grip on Lin Shuang's ankle and moved slightly away from her.
With her keen senses, Lin Shuang naturally noticed Acheron's subtle movement.
What should have been a simple movement of the body's joints took an unexpected turn when, for some reason, while looking into Acheron's eyes...
Lin Shuang, however, felt a subtle sense of guilt.
So she added:
"This has delayed your journey too much. You've already made two trips back and forth; you could have gone much further. And your strength... it's best not to expose it carelessly."
The reason why Xianzhou can remain calm towards Acheron is that Xianzhou only knows that Acheron is a 'Emanator', but does not know which family's Emanator she belongs to.
The power of The Nihility is inherently opposed to all things in the universe, and is naturally rejected by civilization.
Lin Shuang's original plan was not to let Acheron display his abilities on the Xianzhou. Instead, she wanted Jing Yuan to make his move first, and then let Acheron reap the rewards afterwards.
As a result, Acheron quietly ran back to the Xianzhou.
If Acheron were to stab Huan Phantylia on the Xianzhou, it would only cause Acheron unnecessary trouble.
