Chapter 295: 295, should I have a baby with Tina? _1
Returning to the game world, Su Yu emerged in Tina’s bedroom.
In the bedroom, Princess Alyssa was engrossed in a book, sitting at her dressing table with her left hand propping up her cheek and her right hand cradling the book.
Tina sat cross-legged on the bed, striving to digest the inheritance she had just obtained.
Seeing Su Yu’s figure appear, Alyssa put down her book and greeted him with a smile: “Nemesis, you’re back!”
Tina, concentrating on her work, did not speak but also smiled at him.
“Mmm, I’m back. Did you two miss me at all?” Su Yu joked.
“Hmph, how could we in just one hour?” Alyssa couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
At this moment, Morning Star hopped out of Su Yu’s pet space and directly leaped into Alyssa’s arms.
Alyssa gently stroked Morning Star’s fur and asked curiously: “Morning Star, how is Nemesis’s world?”
“This…..” Morning Star was somewhat dumbfounded and she stumbled over her words: “It’s… it’s alright, I guess.”
At this point, all that filled Morning Star’s mind was the wonderful sensation of Su Yu’s warm hands kneading her body. She didn’t care the least bit about the world.
Hearing Morning Star’s words, Alyssa thought that Nemesis’s world was dull and uninspiring and didn’t ask further.
She carefully returned Morning Star to Su Yu’s embrace, stretched lazily, and looked somewhat weary: “Well then, I’ll go back first. There’s a lot of important work to do tomorrow… Goodbye! Nemesis, Tina, Morning Star.”
Seeing the fatigue on the Princess’s face, Su Yu suddenly felt a pang of heartache.
Even though Alyssa, like him, was a fourth-tier Mage and could even exert the strength of a seventh-tier peak Mage under the enhancement of her ancestral powers, she was, after all, just a small girl of 15.
It was a bit unfair to put the burden of reviving the Empire on someone of such young age.
So Su Yu stepped forward and gently took Alyssa’s hand: “Alyssa, wait a moment. I have something to tell you.”
“Nemesis? What is it?” Alyssa’s expression suddenly became a bit flustered, and her cheeks tinged pink.
This was the second time in her life she had had physical contact with a young man (the first time was just now in the palace, where Nemesis had touched her calf). An unusual emotion rose within her.
Yet Su Yu looked quite serious: “It’s not good for you to devote your heart and soul to ruling the country. You need to balance work and rest in order to improve work efficiency. Tell me, when was the last time you took a break?”
“A break…” Alyssa didn’t know what to say.
As far back as she could remember, she had never taken a break.
“How about this,” Su Yu suggested: “Tomorrow I will take you and Tina… and, of course, Morning Star, and the four of us will go to Pearl City and relax. We won’t deal with any politics, just let loose and give ourselves a vacation!”
“But…”
“No buts,” Su Yu interrupted her. “If you won’t go, I’ll just go with Tina.”
He then turned to look at Tina: “Tina, would you like to go with me to Pearl City?”
Tina couldn’t speak as she was currently digesting her inheritance, but she quickly nodded at Su Yu to indicate her willingness.
“Alright then, I’ll go with you,” Alyssa finally gave in after some thought.
Indeed, now that the final battle was over, it was time to take a well-deserved rest. The matters of state could afford to wait a little longer.
However, Alyssa seemed to recall something all of a sudden.
She transmitted a message to Morning Star using the Sound Transmission Spell: “Morning Star, when I’m not around, keep an eye on Nemesis for me. Don’t let him get too close to Tina.”
This was also her third reason for giving Morning Star to Su Yu.
As Su Yu’s pet, Morning Star would definitely know what he was doing. If Su Yu wanted to get overly intimate with Tina, Morning Star could jump out and stop them in time.
Receiving the transmission, Morning Star immediately responded: “No problem, leave it to me! But…”
Morning Star took a moment before continuing the transmission: “You like Nemesis too?”
Alyssa: “Yeah, so what?”
Morning Star: “Uh….. nothing.”
Things seemed to be getting a little complicated.
“Let’s settle on that then!” Su Yu laughed: “I’ll come to pick you guys up early tomorrow morning, and we’ll go to Pearl City together.”
“Alright.” Alyssa nodded. It seemed she would have to plan things out for tomorrow when she got back tonight. She couldn’t just let her subordinates think she had disappeared, could she?
Tina did not object either. She wanted to master the entire first stage of the inheritance by tonight, so it wouldn’t interfere with tomorrow’s plans.
The next day.
Using the [Mimicry Skill] to change their appearances and auras, the three of them went to have a good time in Pearl City.
Pearl City was the only mega city that remained untouched by the war, and the lives of its residents were virtually unchanged.
The City Lord, Michelle, had been arrested by Alyssa and sentenced to death.
But due to the slow pace of information exchange in this world, most people were still unaware of it. Even those who knew about it weren’t too affected by the news.
So, life in the city continued as usual, still as prosperous as ever.
Upon arriving in Pearl City, the three of them, along with the cat, went to the snack street to sample local delicacies, went shopping for clothes, or bought some peculiar trinkets.
Su Yu’s “splurging ability” was activated once again.
Whatever Tina, Alyssa, or Morning Star fancied, as long as it wasn’t overpriced and designed to rip people off, he would purchase it without hesitation, regardless of the cost.
For instance, the dried cod that Morning Star longed for as a special product of Pearl City, the materials filled with Star Force, the exotic small jewelry and gems that Alyssa was interested in, the [Azure Fantasy Potion] that Tina wanted, which could enhance spiritual force and expedite learning time…
Su Yu bought these items in large quantities without a second thought.
All these items cost Su Yu several hundred thousand spiritual energy coins, but he didn’t care a bit.
After all, he still had over three billion spiritual energy coins in his bag. Shifting a few places in the tail end of his balance didn’t matter to him.
Surprisingly, their journey to Pearl City generally increased their favorable impressions of him:
Tina’s favorability toward him increased from 43 points to 46 points, just 4 points short of the maximum 50 points;
Alyssa’s favorability toward him increased from 41 points to 44 points;
Morning Star’s favorability was at 18 points [Neutral] when she first hatched, but after going offline and then coming back online with her, her favorability had increased to 26 points [Attention]. This increase of 8 points in favorability occurred offline, with no game prompt.
After this trip to Pearl City, Morning Star’s favorability toward him increase by another 5 points, reaching 31 points in the [Friendly] level, just 9 points shy of the highest stage of [Enthusiasm].
Seeing Tina’s favorability score at 46 points, Su Yu fell into deep thought.
Normally, a favorability of 40 points was sufficient for marriage, and 45 points was enough to have a child (provided it was with someone of the opposite sex).
Tina’s favorability met the criteria. Should he have a child with Tina?
