Allen slept late for the first time in a long while.
Ever since he had awakened this Sunday, his nerves had been constantly frayed, and he had hardly had any proper rest.
Coupled with the effects of the “Gene Enhancement Serum” he had injected yesterday, he slept exceptionally deeply.
When he woke up, the Sunshine outside the window was already bright enough to be piercing, and looking at the sky, it was clearly near noon.
“……That was a great sleep.”
Allen rubbed his eyes and felt his body much lighter. The fatigue of the past few days seemed to have been swept away, giving him a sense of being reborn.
“Ah, thank The Lord! I seem to have had a sweet Dream, dreaming of a paradise where Yuri is in full bloom.”
He stretched comfortably, preparing to get out of bed and start his day’s work, but suddenly felt a heavy weight on his body, as if he were being firmly held.
“Marianne, you brat…… why did you sneak in to sleep with me again……”
Allen muttered helplessly in a low voice, subconsciously assuming it was that clingy little Maid again.
He gently lifted the quilt, but what met his eyes was not the familiar black hair, but a head of vibrant red hair.
“Anna?”
The red-haired Maid currently clinging to him like a koala, using him as a human pillow, was none other than that airheaded foodie of a nun.
She also seemed to be immersed in a sweet Dream, with a sliver of crystal-clear drool hanging from the corner of her mouth, unreservedly rubbing against Allen’s pajamas.
Wait… letting a dog onto the bed seems a bit wrong…
Oh, wait! Anna isn’t some pet; she’s a genuine Combat Nun with monstrous strength!
Allen felt a delayed wave of lingering fear.
Fortunately, this nun was fairly well-behaved while sleeping.
If she had unconsciously used even a little more force… he probably wouldn’t have lived to see today’s Sunshine.
How did she get into my bed?
Allen turned his head in confusion toward the bedroom door.
That door, which he had specifically reinforced, was currently lying miserably on the floor, the hinges seemingly torn apart by some kind of brute force.
……Well, case closed.
Anna probably wanted to come wake me up, found the door wouldn’t open, and just dismantled it with one push.
After coming in and finding that she couldn’t wake me no matter what, she simply decided to join me for a second nap.
Allen deduced the “crime scene” in an instant and couldn’t help but sigh.
Sigh, whatever, let her sleep.
Anna is simple-minded, unlike a certain someone with ulterior motives.
Thinking of Marianne, Allen couldn’t help but shake his head inwardly.
Well, better not to evaluate that Yuri-disqualified Protagonist.
Allen maintained a high level of vigilance against anything that might threaten his “purity.”
Pleasure and sensory stimulation were among the easiest areas to infiltrate, and he himself was being closely watched by the Evil God.
Once his will wavered, the Evil God would likely seize the opportunity.
As a villain determined to do great things, Allen relied on his supreme and pure Love for Yuri to temporarily suppress those restless adolescent instincts.
Once a crack appeared in his psychological defenses, things would become very bad—the Evil God was probably waiting for such a moment.
……Wait.
Allen keenly perceived a deeper issue.
Why did Livia, just like him, seem to be deliberately suppressing certain physiological instincts?
Coldness is one thing, but the Livia of the past was clearly a warm, cheerful, even somewhat boyish girl. How did she become this icy figure?
Could it be…… she also realized that the Corruption of the Evil God often begins from these seemingly trivial details?
Recalling carefully, except for that dark Magic King Route where she became the Demon King, Livia showed no signs of being corrupted by the Evil God in almost all other cycles.
Even in the Magic King Route, her fall was because her heart was broken and her ideals shattered, allowing the Evil God to take advantage of the opening.
The will of this Feng Aotian seemed much more resilient than Allen had imagined.
So that’s how it is…… the reason the Evil God let Livia inherit her memories in this cycle is likely because they finally found this “Feng Aotian’s” weakness.
How tragic, Livia!
Following this line of thought, does this mean you can’t get married for the rest of your life?
Allen even began to ponder what would happen if he really married Livia.
Assuming that according to the preset Script, Livia would fall in Love with Allen, then her originally frigid, icy personality would likely gradually melt.
Based on Allen’s understanding of “gap moe,” a character like Livia, once her suppressed emotions were unlocked, would likely become a troublesome, predatory character just like Marianne.
And this would fall right into the Trap set by the Evil God.
It was known that Livia’s Bloodline of the Sigil had inextricable links to the Evil God, and as for this so-called “holy” power inside Allen, heaven knows what its true nature was.
Assuming the two of them really united and engaged in the “making people” movement, it was extremely likely to satisfy some filthy existence’s descent Blood Ritual.
Those things of The Evil that originally could not exist directly in the physical world might truly descend into this world through this “incarnation” process.
If Livia and Allen truly loved each other, only to find that the fruit of their Love, their own child, had become some indescribable thing of The Evil……
As a Hero who championed Justiciar, and as a mother, how would Livia face her own child?
Just imagining that scene was enough to make one feel a bone-chilling cold and despair.
This wasn’t Allen being paranoid.
In this world, similar stories were not without precedent.
Whether in the Lorraine Kingdom or the Empire, there was an unwritten rule—strictly forbidding the union of close relatives, especially among Crested Nobles.
If the Bloodline of the Sigil was inherited through the union of close relatives, there was a very high probability of terrible “Bloodline contamination” occurring.
Children born under such conditions would have an astonishing concentration of the Bloodline of the Sigil, but as a price, such children were born eroded by The Evil.
They could hardly control their emotions, their minds struggled to grow normally, and from birth, they were filled with immense, insatiable desires.
When these children grew up, they would often become terrifying monsters wearing human skin, causing disasters everywhere. The world called them—”Pure-bloods.”
Even more terrifyingly, the offspring of “Pure-bloods” and ordinary people (many of which were the result of forced conception) were almost all deformed monsters.
They usually had the heads of beasts and the bodies of humans, savage and bloodthirsty, known to the world as “Beastmen.”
Of course, many people suspected that Beastmen were actually the product of crossbreeding between “Pure-bloods” and actual beasts.
In short, many Beastmen were not killed by their mothers whose consciences remained, but were abandoned or released into the wild, eventually leading to great calamities.
These Beastmen had low intelligence and were malicious and combative.
They usually gathered in the form of tribes, hiding deep within the dense and ancient forests of the Empire, constantly threatening surrounding settlements of Humanity.
They called themselves the “Hoofed Ones,” claiming that they were the original masters of this world and that humans were merely their “food animals.”
They frequently raided villages, snatched human women, and expanded their population through frenzied mating, eventually forming a terrifying “beast tide” that crashed against the borders of civilization.
These irritable beasts had no reason, yet were exceptionally cunning.
They would find every way to drag those who were pure and noble down from their high positions, and then use bloody entrails to wantonly trample their remains.
In this worldview, their positioning was essentially equivalent to the goblins in certain works, the embodiment of chaos and savagery.
The Church believed they were a genetically mutated sub-human species, the creations of the Evil God.
Therefore, the primary goal of the Knight Order under the Imperial Heresy Inquisition was to purge such enemies of Humanity.
Unlike the Lorraine Kingdom, the Empire did not have many plains; it was covered with rolling mountains and dense forests, providing excellent hiding places for these things of The Evil.
The Empire’s constant struggle to achieve true unification was also greatly related to the continuous threat of these Beastmen.
They threatened transportation routes, affected the communication of government orders, and divided the human realm into isolated “islands.”
The only thing that felt slightly strange was that in the last hundred years, the activity of Beastmen seemed to have decreased significantly, gradually turning into monsters of distant legend.
The bloody rituals requiring human sacrifice that many villages had established back then to expel them had now mostly been replaced by livestock, gradually evolving into a harmless traditional cultural activity.
But…… have they really disappeared?
In the original game of Starshine Love Song, “Beastmen” weren’t even included in the monster compendium.
Allen learned about Beastmen because when he was a Heresy in the Crimson Spiral Cult, he had accidentally come into contact with a Blood Priest who was almost completely bestialized.
At the time, Allen thought this was a physical mutation caused by becoming a Blood Priest, but he later asked and found out the other party was born that way.
He had vaguely revealed that his clansmen…… seemed to just be waiting for a certain opportunity, temporarily lying low.
At the time, Allen didn’t pay too much attention to this matter…… until in one Cycle of Reincarnation, he tried to flee the Capital.
In the process of being pursued by guards, he had scrambled into the Black Forest at the border.
He got lost deep in the Black Forest until a cold arrow suddenly shot through his chest!
In his dying moments, what he vaguely saw was a terrifying figure that was half-man, half-beast.
The memory of that reincarnation had originally been forgotten by Allen.
It was just that…… waking up this morning with the fragrant and soft beautiful girl Anna lying beside him made him think of Livia for a moment, thinking of Livia’s knightly dignity, and then immediately thinking of monsters attacking female knights in certain works, and then thinking of interspecies content, and finally jumping to “Beastmen”!
Allen’s imagination could only leap this far on this specific level.
Since the Evil God had countless conspiracies, then the Beastmen might also be a link in their massive Plan.
If human civilization continued to decline, these “Hoofed Ones” might suddenly surge from the forest, attempting to replace Humanity as the overlords of the world.
The lessons of history were heavy; they absolutely could not let a “Pure-blood” or any other form of The Evil be born again!
According to the Evil God’s wicked tastes, their letting Livia get close to Allen might be to play this extremely cruel trick.
Unfortunately, the Evil God miscalculated Allen’s determination.
His idea of saving Livia and Marianne was real, and one of the reasons he was so enthusiastic about the Yuri CP was precisely because the Evil God could absolutely not obtain the “result” they wanted from pure spiritual attachment and Yuri relationships!
They probably also underestimated Livia’s own resilience.
Livia would like me? Would have children with me?
Stop dreaming, you bunch of evil existences!
Livia won’t like me! She is destined to be the best Yuri Protagonist! You Evil Gods, just stay on the sidelines and watch the pure Yuri!
I! Am the world’s number one Yuri fan!
Other than Yuri, I seek nothing else!
Early in the morning, Allen successfully expelled the uncontrollable, cluttered thoughts of an adolescent boy by counting on his firm faith in Yuri.
However, at this moment, he was facing another very realistic challenge.
When a pure and cute nun with a fairly well-developed figure is pressing her soft body tightly against you, and you can even clearly feel the touch of certain parts, what reaction will a physiologically healthy boy have?
The answer is simple—guilt.
And the accompanying…… awkward physiological reaction.
AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!
Long live Yuri!!!!
Allen screamed silently in his heart, desperately trying to break free from the restraint of Anna’s seemingly slender but amazingly strong arms.
For the first time, he felt that Marianne sneaking into his bed to sleep didn’t seem like such a bad thing—
At least his feelings for Marianne were closer to sibling affection and wouldn’t trigger such an awkward physiological reaction.
Furthermore, Marianne was actually a very smart girl with a sense of boundaries.
She knew that a sister pestering her brother to sleep was a bit clingy but still within the acceptable range, so Allen usually wouldn’t truly get angry.
But once Marianne tried to cross that line, she could immediately feel Allen’s true wrath.
Marianne was well aware of this.
Overall, the interaction between Allen and Marianne was relatively healthy; besides Marianne’s attachment becoming heavier, there were no big problems.
Only Anna…… Allen had always treated her like a cute, large canine animal.
Until this moment, this “little animal” made him suddenly realize that she was also a living, fragrant, and soft beautiful girl, and that shock and astonishment almost broke the psychological construction he had maintained.
How terrifying!
As expected, you absolutely cannot let “little animals” onto the bed!
Fortunately, after injecting the Gene Enhancement Serum, Allen’s physical fitness had significantly improved, and he actually managed to separate Anna’s sloth-like hug.
He suddenly thought, could the reason Anna is such a glutton with an amazing appetite be related to this constant, high-intensity physical metabolism?
Ordinary people could only inject one shot of Gene Enhancement Serum (otherwise their genes would collapse), and the duration of the effect and the degree of physical improvement were limited.
And Anna’s constitution was special; could it be that her body always maintained a high metabolic state similar to being injected with the Gene Enhancement Serum?
Anna, could she be the legendary “Innate Nine-Dragons-Pulling-Coffin Holy Body”?
“Gurgle, gurgle—”
Just then, Allen’s stomach let out a loud, protesting growl.
An intense feeling of hunger struck instantly.
This was both because he hadn’t eaten for almost a day and because the Gene Enhancement Serum was crazily consuming the energy stored in his body.
Although he had exercised for a while, there was still some fat left on him belonging to a Noble Master.
Now, Allen felt that fat had seemingly disappeared miraculously.
Oh no! The stored fat is being rapidly consumed!
If I don’t replenish energy, something will happen!
Anna was also woken up by the loud commotion in Allen’s stomach.
She rubbed her eyes sleepily, tilted her cute little head at Allen, and asked dizzily, “Hungry….. Allen?”
“Are you asking if I’m hungry, or saying you’re hungry?” Allen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, reaching out to gently rub Anna’s soft red hair, “Let’s go, let’s find something to eat.”
Anna seemed to still be savoring her dream just now.
She blinked her big eyes, her face carrying pure confusion, and muttered softly, “Just now…… something…… was poking me…… Allen…… did you hide bread?”
BOOM—!
These words were like a bolt from the blue, instantly scaring Allen out of his wits.
Although it was just a normal physiological phenomenon for an adolescent boy in the morning, if this kind of thing were known by anyone, especially misunderstood and spoken out by the simple nun in front of him, the glorious image he had painstakingly built would be completely ruined!
Damn it! It’s all Livia’s…… oh no, it’s all the Evil God’s fault!
It was the Evil God’s whisper that stirred my mortal heart!
Yuri above, let the evil thoughts recede!
Relying on his pure and flawless Love for Yuri, Allen finally succeeded in forcibly suppressing that bit of awkward physiological reaction and psychological fluctuation.
This small accident would be treated as desensitization training against the temptation of the Evil God.
Yes, exactly! I am an upright Yuri gentleman!
This chaotic little interlude eventually ended with Allen buying Anna a large glass of chilled sweet milk and an additional ten pieces of white bread as “hush money.”
