Didn't you go to Teyvat to earn money to support me?

Is Bonya's mother still at the orphanage?

“The orphanage has expanded. After all, it’s the school where the ‘Children of the White Flower’ once studied. There are too many of us super Valkyries, the cradle of Herrschers, who want to pay our respects. There’s no other way, so Cocolia’s mother and her mother could only transform the orphanage into a branch of St. Freya. Anyway, it only admitted girls at first,” Bronya said. “As for her mother, she and Yuuto opened a flower shop and plan to earn enough money to buy a house in Japan.”

"Buying a house in Japan? Why?"

“Who would want to live in the freezing cold if they didn’t have money? Cocolia’s mother originally wanted to take them away, but they insisted on earning their own money. They came to Japan because we’re all here. Ever since St. Freya was revealed, Tokyo has become practically the capital of the supernatural world. Sirin’s interdimensional gate also opened here. The economy is booming, and land is incredibly valuable. Mom said she’s planning to come here and be taken care of by you so she won’t have to work hard…” Bronya looked troubled. “Mom, she’s always trying to trouble you, brother… I could easily make her financially independent…”

Shen Liang could only force a smile, the image of Bangya's light gray single ponytail and soft, slightly husky voice flashing through his mind, and he quickly shut his mouth.

"It's good that you're here. It's much more convenient for everyone to live together," Shen Liang said. "There are empty apartments on the ground floor of my apartment building, which I'm saving for everyone."

“Also, we’re here this time because we’ve all grown up.” Bronya took a sip of tea and put down her cup. “When is my brother planning to implant ‘snake skin’ into us?”

Shen Liang's expression became visibly embarrassed.

"Is it urgent?"

“Although ‘snake molting’ is my brother’s secret, it is essentially a product evolved from the research of Dr. Mebius of the previous civilization. Its function is beyond Destiny’s analysis, but having spent many years with my brother and the recipients of the snake molting, I have analyzed it to a high degree of accuracy,” Bronya said calmly. “The greatest function of ‘snake molting’ is immortality. Even if one dies, one can regenerate through my brother’s records, but one needs to go through the growth process again. The second function is to stop growth. Combined with the previous immortality, it can achieve the effect of never aging or dying, which can be called humanity’s hope.”

“It’s not that humans want it…” Shen Liang scratched his head, “The side effect is that it greatly reduces fertility, have you forgotten?”

“Immortal life should be like this, otherwise how can there be enough resources to support the development of life?” Bronya glanced at him. “Don’t change the subject, where is our 'snake molt'?”

"Are you really in a rush to get it?"

“I already said, the second effect is to stop growth, brother. Bronya thinks that Bronya is at the perfect age to stop growth right now.” The casual gray-haired beauty confidently crossed her legs, revealing her amazingly slender white stockings. She casually pulled up the clasp at the end of the stockings, then let go, and they snapped back with a “snap.”

“Smooth skin, fair complexion, firm body, everything suits brother’s preferences, this is the most suitable age.” Bronya smiled as she looked at Shen Liang’s wide eyes, which were captivated by her. “Seele too, and Rosalia and Lilia as well. The only problem is that we look a bit too big for brother, but it doesn’t matter. Brother seems to prefer us like this, um, yes… more of a conquering desire?”

"I don't have any desire to conquer anymore!"

"What procedures are required? Or are there any special steps? Can it be done here?" Bronya answered readily. "Let's go see the Arlene sisters tonight and transplant the 'snake skin' today."

Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Shaniat Family's New Year's End

In the middle of the night, on the sixteenth floor of the Ocha no Mizu Hotel, Shen Liang, bound hand and foot, woke up groggily, feeling that something was wrong.

I always feel...

Very comfortable.

A subtle and soft sensation; upon closer examination, it's clear that she's not some older sister who's twenty centimeters taller and more imposing than me.

Re-experience—

Rosalia and Lilia were lying on top of him, the little girl's soft body exuding a pleasant scent from her recent bath, and her tail—

Tail?

"Rosalia!" Shen Liang grabbed the pink-haired idiot's hair, furious. "What are you doing!"

"Brother's awake? Hehe."

Wearing a cat cosplay outfit and cat paw stockings, with white over-the-knee stockings hanging from the hem of the outfit, Rosalia, dressed rather refreshingly with her belly showing, and Lilia, wearing the same sister cosplay outfit but with black cat paw stockings instead, both sisters showed innocent smiles at the same time. Because the lights were off, their smiles looked like those of some sinister little succubi against the dark background.

Unlike Bronya and Seele, the two sisters who underwent the Honkai Beast fusion surgery will basically stop growing, so Shen Liang can only barely maintain some brotherly dignity in front of these two adorable little devils.

But these two little ones are far more dangerous than Bronya and Seele!

If Bronya had no reservations, she would still wait for him to come to his senses and for him to take the initiative. The Arlene sisters were truly his devoted sisters who had followed him throughout his life, from their time in the orphanage to regaining his memories and their series of epic adventures. The Arlene sisters had long since crossed paths with him without any barriers whatsoever.

Shen Liang was merely avoiding Bronya, but his near-desperate escape from the Arlene sisters was precisely because of their naivety and complete lack of distance! Naïve is a good word, but the Arlene sisters' naïveness only meant that they would act like children, without any taboos or restraints, indulging in their desires. Three years ago, after Shen Liang returned from Teyvat, the Arlene sisters had already shown him what "children's indiscretions" meant on the very day of his return!

June 1, 2018, will be a day that Shen Liang will remember with deep sorrow.

On June 1, 2018, Rosalia claimed that she and her sister had turned eighteen, and according to Siberian law, eighteen is old enough to get married and even get pregnant.

On June 1, 2018, Lilia asked Shen Liang to celebrate their birthdays for the past three years, from 2016 to the present.

On June 1, 2018, Shen Liang accompanied the Arlin sisters to buy beautiful pajamas and nightgowns, various "adult" style bedding, and had a candlelight dinner with the two sisters. They also watched a horror movie, and Shen Liang was ambushed by Rosalia in the movie theater under the pretext of being scared, and was forced to drink a vodka-flavored non-alcoholic beverage from her mouth.

On June 1, 2018, she was drugged in her drink. The drug took effect after she returned to the hotel. It was extremely potent, and none of Hua Haiyue's rationality remained.

Shen Liang really didn't want to recall what happened next. He really didn't want to remember the complicated and astonished expression on Bronya's face when she pushed open the bedroom door on the morning of June 2nd, and he was even more unwilling to admit that the little monster who had shown no mercy to the Arlene sisters was actually himself.

That day at the Ochanomizu Hotel was a kind of hell, for both Shen Liang and the Arlene sisters. So much so that the Arlene sisters, with their lawless nature, never dared to ask Möbius for medicine again.

But now it's Ochanomizu Hotel again, and it's the Arlene sisters again!

He thought that night had left an indelible shadow on both Arlene and her sister, and that Arlene should at least be more restrained. But it seems that only he was left with a shadow!

"Stop pretending to be cute! Take it out!" Shen Liang said angrily.

"Brother, are you talking about Rosalia's tail? Rosalia's tail and Rosalia are two different creatures. Rosalia can't control it." Rosalia knelt on Shen Liang's chest, deliberately pressing him down to prevent him from getting up, her smile wicked.

Lilia didn't say anything; she was very busy, her mouth was full of chatter, and her tail was wagging happily.

"You...you all..." Shen Liang gritted his teeth, trying to resist, but Rosalia pressed his knee down harder, preventing him from resisting.

Enraged, Shen Liang grabbed the tip of Rosalia's tail, which was sticking out from under his buttocks, and squeezed it hard! Rosalia let out a cute whimper, went limp against him, her eyes filled with tears, and looked at Shen Liang pitifully: "Brother... don't squeeze it, the tail..."

"Don't think I don't know what you're trying to do! I'm a boy, you hear me? I'm a boy!" Shen Liang said angrily. "You won't get away with this, Rosalia. It's illegal to do this while I'm sleeping! Understand? The law will protect me!"

“No, the law does not protect the rights of some men from being violated,” Lilia said calmly. “Article 237 of the Criminal Law of China stipulates that anyone who uses violence, coercion, or other means to force, threaten, or insult a woman shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years or criminal detention. This law does not protect adult men. My brother is an adult, and so are we.”

Actually, Lilia told a small lie. Since 2019, this article of the criminal law has expanded its scope from women to everyone. However, for men, there is only the crime of indecent assault, not rape, which remains unchanged.

Shen Liang laughed angrily, "Then let's do it according to Siberian law!"

“There’s no such law in Siberia,” Rosalia chuckled, revealing her cute little white teeth. “There’s no justice in the world that will protect my brother.”

"You can't treat me like this!"

“Rosalia doesn’t understand what brother is talking about,” the pink-haired silly little girl shook her head and hummed, “Why are you resisting so fiercely, brother? Don’t other people just put up a token resistance and then accept it?”

"...because it's a matter of dignity."

Rosalia cupped her face in her hands, nestled against Shen Liang's chest, and tapped his chest with her fingers, her smile becoming even more mischievous and adorable. "So, brother hates Rosalia's tail, huh? Rosalia just wanted to test what brother did to her."

"..."

“That’s not fair, brother. The rules of the orphanage are that brothers and sisters should treat each other fairly, and no one should be shortchanged from their share,” Lilia chimed in.

"I'd rather give this portion to you!"

"Then Rosalia can reluctantly agree." Rosalia happily bounced against Shen Liang. "Okay, brother, now, right now, and then—"

Shen Liang could no longer tolerate the provocation of these two silly little girls. He scrambled to his feet, pinned down the previously domineering Rosalia, and bent down on her.

"Well?"

kiss.

Shen Liang felt he had to quickly dispel Rosalia and Lilia's strange thoughts—they were actually thinking about him… and such! He had to strike hard immediately and make those two realize they were girls, gentle, lovely, and intelligent girls! The happiness of being a girl was what they should be pursuing, so stop thinking about gender equality! Equality isn't for this kind of thing!

Rosalia happily closed her eyes. Although her carefree mind couldn't quite understand why Shen Liang, who had always resisted, was suddenly being so proactive, she had always been this proactive. Shen Liang was naturally even happier that he had finally managed to get her to cooperate, so he stopped trying to make use of her tail.

"Haaah... That's so unfair! Why did it have to be idiot Rosalia first? Lilia worked so hard." Lilia let go of her mouth, complaining in a completely emotionless tone.

"You'll pay the price too! Rosalia's an idiot, I don't believe this crazy idea wasn't yours!"

"Ouch! Cough cough..."

"Hahaha, Lilia, you idiot! So, as expected, your brother still prefers... Haaah..."

They really need to be educated.

And the results of education are gradually becoming apparent.

"Haaah... No matter who my brother likes, Rosalia loves him the most..."

"Lilia too, yes, even more than Rosalia..."

----------------

"Brother, Bronya just dropped you off and then went to pick up a package, and you're showing this to Bronya?"

A pretty girl in overalls with long, light gray hair sat helplessly on the sofa, looking at the messy room. Shen Liang, her face slightly ashamed, was putting on her shirt and tying up her disheveled hair.

"It's only been an hour, what happened to them?"

"Sleep."

"Brother, it's the truth."

"She is definitely asleep."

Bronya sighed, took a clean blanket and wrapped the two silly sisters, Rosalia and Lilia, who were sleeping like logs and even adorably talking in their sleep, together. Rosalia and Lilia were wrapped up like spring rolls, and the two little ones unconsciously hugged each other in their sleep, sleeping with their necks intertwined.

Only the two little ones were wrapped up, and Bai Xier, who had been shyly covering her eyes since entering the room, finally carefully lowered her hands.

Black Seele glanced at her other self and thought to herself, "Stop pretending. How do you know you can open your eyes if you keep them closed?"

"I'll bathe them both tomorrow; I don't have time today," Bronya said.

"Let's wash today," Shen Liang said instinctively, as she has a cleanliness obsession.

Bronya shrugged. "Then they'll just make you help with the bath. I guess we won't be doing anything else tonight, given the inevitable logic of things."

"Okay." Shen Liang overcame her germaphobia and sat on the bed without too much embarrassment, chatting with the three people on the sofa.

There's really nothing embarrassing about it. Bronya and the others couldn't possibly be unaware of Rosalia, Lilia's, and his relationship. There are no secrets in the orphanage, so it's hardly a case of something being exposed.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that these two Russian girls are the real reason why Bronya and Seele have always dared to pressure him.

—She can do it all!
