Arknights? Yesterday's Arknights!!

"My fault, my fault."

"And also, it hurts so much, you have to carry me across today." Alina's eyes were full of laughter.

"Okay, I can carry it for the rest of my life."

"It's a promise, I'll carry it for the rest of my life."

"It's a promise!" After finishing breakfast, An Xin really carried Alina on his back. But Alina became incredibly shy and ignored everyone who greeted her. Later, she simply buryed her head in his back like an ostrich.

I really hope these days can last.

But then, there was no time left, and even An Xin joined the battle.

I don't get enough sleep, so I don't have the energy to do that kind of thing. Sometimes I just sleep in the office.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye, and the integration movement, which had lasted for more than three years, finally achieved its victory.

Early spring, 1099.

The Ursus Emperor abdicated, the Ursus Empire completed its mission, and a new nation was established—the Republic of the People's Representative Conference.

Unexpectedly, after the victory, the three of them became even busier, and there wasn't even one person to keep him company.

An Xin sat alone in the rocking chair, listening to the content being broadcast on television.

"The first People's Representative Conference was chaired by Talulah, and its members included Bochokastie, Yelena, Alina, Anxin, Yangge, and so on."

"Oh!"

The door was suddenly pushed open, slamming against the wall with a loud bang.

An Xin was startled and turned her head to look, only to find it was Talulah.

She was slightly blushing, wearing a Gothic Lolita-style short dress decorated in red, with a cinched waist that accentuated her bust. She wore gradient stockings that gradually changed from light gray to black, paired with high-heeled ankle boots.

how to say?

This doesn't seem like Talulah's style.

An Xin scrutinized Talulah closely; what was wrong with looking at his own wife?

But after watching for a while, he noticed that Talulah's face was getting redder and redder.

"You don't... still have a job?"

"I quit! All I do is work all day! They've all given themselves to you, and now I'm the only one left."

Talulah took a few steps forward, pressed down on An Xin, grabbed his tie, and the two looked at each other, their eyes filled with expectation.

"I've dumped all the work on Alina. You have to stay with me tonight. I heard from Yelena that you like this style, and you like legs too. Here, you can play with them however you like."

As Talulah spoke, she gently lifted the hem of her skirt, revealing a section of her rounded thigh.

An Xin wrapped her arms around her waist, swallowed hard, and asked, "Is it okay? Really?"

"...Anyway, it's all prepared for you."

Now that things have come to this, Talulah is a little shy and lets Anxin do as she pleases.

Next, An Xin realized she was wrong.

The first time, Talulah was the little girl in his arms. He was gentle, his eyes filled with love, and he treated Talulah tenderly.

The second time,

the third time,

The fourth time,

The fifth time,

The sixth time,

........

"Don't come anymore, Little Tower, Little Tower, it's really gone, not a single drop left."

"I don't believe it, let's do it again."

"This is the ninth time. Can I do it tomorrow? I feel like I'm going to die from exhaustion. Even Qilin won't work."

When Alina and Yelena arrived with breakfast the next day, Anxin was still pinned down by Talulah. She couldn't beat her, nor could she bring herself to hit her.

"You're not done yet?" Yelena sat on the sofa with interest, crossing her legs. "It's okay, keep going, we're all family here."

"Uh... Talulah, get down here right now!" Anxin panicked.

"Heh, I'll let you off today." Talulah got off him, giving his chest a final pat.

She sat down to the side, eating the breakfast Alina had given her, and asked her.

Did you bring coffee?

"I brought it, I'll go get it for you." Alina left the room.

Anxin looked at Talulah and felt that he was the little girl who was being bullied.

He put on his clothes and got out of bed.

After the group had breakfast, An Xin brought up the game panel and pondered for a moment.

Now it's all over.

Can we finish the game now?

However, staring at the game-ending button, An Xin couldn't make up her mind.

Even though I knew it was fake.

But...

Is this the system message he received when he continued playing the game: "Do not become addicted to the game"?

An Xin's gaze swept around the entire area.

This country, this experience, and these three people are all things he finds hard to part with.

Once the game is over, everything is gone.

He will return to the autumn of 1096, three years before Ursus was still part of the Empire.

An Xin took a deep breath.

Now that the if lines have been generated.

Then what is there to worry about?

Since the empire hasn't fallen, let's try again.

He pressed his finger down resolutely.

【game over】

[All game objectives completed, rating improved]

[Your attempt to change the world, even with just a Marxist philosophy, is still a force for change.]

You have generated a new if statement: Crimson Dream. This if statement has been recorded.

[Settlement in progress...]

[You have gained 150,000 points, and a special reward of unknown monster flesh.]

[Unidentified monster flesh and blood: Probably from the deep ocean. Want to try eating it? Raw is recommended.]

The world was put on hold, and An Xin was the only one who could move around.

Finally, the blond youth was like sand, gradually blown away by the wind.

It’s time to wake up from the dream.

"Den."

The world started spinning again, and An Xin opened her eyes, panting heavily.

Is it over?

He stared at his palm, where a bottle filled with flesh and blood lay—this must be the special reward. He stretched it out briefly. He had spent four years in the Reunion Movement; looking back now, it felt like a dream.

The rented room was still the same as before, which was natural; the time he spent in the game was only a few seconds in the real world.

Anxin brought up the control panel.

Name: An Xin

【............】

[Points: 298,900]

He breathed a sigh of relief as he stared at his score.

That's enough for 200,000.

If you can exchange for [World Line O Reboot] at any time, there's not too much to worry about.

He felt something on his left side that made him feel a little uncomfortable. He touched his pocket and found it was a photograph with five people in it.

These are photos taken at the wedding. Anxin is standing in the middle, with Yelena on her left, Talulah and Alina on her right, and her father-in-law, Bozokasti, behind her.
