Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

Even though Natasha wasn't shameless enough, she forced herself to keep a straight face—if she couldn't be shameless now, she would have to spend the rest of her life bowing her head in front of Liu Bai.

"Thank you so much."

Liu Bai raised an eyebrow. "Pretending, huh? Let's see how long you can keep up this act."

Today we're going to torture him, torture him severely.

"Have you eaten? If not, I'll make you something."

"I didn't eat... no, I ate!"

"Oh, I haven't eaten yet."

Liu Bai was about to leave the room when he said that.

Then Natasha grabbed Liu Bai's shoulder.

"Um... the outside has been burgled too, it will be dangerous for you to go out, little brother."

"It's because we were robbed that my brother and I have to face reality together."

Liu Bai smiled.

boom--!

The next moment, Liu Bai was pinned against the door by Natasha.

"...Hey kid, don't push your luck. Do you really want to force people to resort to violence?"

"Hey... Sister, don't you love your little brother anymore?"

"Gulp—!" As if remembering something, Natasha's face quickly turned red.

"Oh right, where's your lovingly prepared dish, sister?"

"...I'm going to kill you, you brat."

Natasha said those words almost through gritted teeth.

"Hmm...maybe the Doctor will be very interested in your reaction last night, sister?" Bai remained calm as she continued the interrogation.

If she were really going to take action, Natasha wouldn't have said so much.

"Who do you think I became like that because of?!"

Natasha was extremely unhappy about this.

"I've made up my mind, I'm going to strip you naked."

"Isn't this too sudden?"

"You're getting talkative now? I really tried my best to find a compromise between murder to cover it up and physical amnesia!"

Since the biggest black mark on my life can't be erased by force, let Liu Bai also have a black mark on his history.

With this mutual restraint, both sides can make a living.

"Even if I'm further considered a perverted, yandere, brother-obsessed guy, it's okay?"

"..."

...That seems to be true.

Even if he's nominally a younger brother, it's unlikely that an older sister would collect those kinds of photos, right?

"Who said I'm your sibling, you bastard! Are you really younger than me?"

Chapter 65 Are you a fan of younger men?

"...So you really are younger than me, even if it's only by a month."

[Natasha's favorability: 3540]

Natasha, now of a different age, wore a somewhat subtle expression.

"...Does knowing this make you feel gratified?"

"Maybe? Don't you think it's... a little disgusting that someone older than you calls you 'brother'?"

Natasha thought that if Liu Bai were younger than her, it wouldn't be a bad idea to treat him as a younger brother.

"If that's the case, I can understand it a little better—but you really are a fan of younger men, aren't you?"

"Will you die if you don't complain?"

Natasha, who had already put her hand down, got angry again and reached out to pinch Liu Bai's face.

"Huh? Can you die? And you're the one who's into younger men! Your whole family is!"

"I don't really have any feelings for lolis."

"—People who say things like that are usually not good people! And in your eyes, does 'younger man' only refer to lolis? Do you have some ulterior motives towards Xiaokong?"

"Hey, this kind of landslide is just too unethical."

"That's called prevention!"

Natasha pursed her lips and then released Liu Bai.

"Forget it, I won't argue with you. Speaking of that medicine, sometimes it really does create a kind of fantastical feeling."

"It's just medicine after all, and I think you've taken too much."

Liu Bai shrugged. If he had administered the medicine himself, this dosage would likely cause his favorability rating to plummet to hatred once the effects wore off.

"You think I wanted to eat this?" Natasha pouted. Who in their right mind would like the feeling of being forced to love someone else by having their consciousness altered? "It was all the Lord's doing. He forced me to take the drug in order to collect data. By the way, the Lord told me to tell you that currently, two bottles of this drug are the most reasonable dosage, three to five bottles will have the highest effect, and more than seven bottles will produce a marginal effect."

"...You actually managed to get some useful data? I thought the professor was just doing this for fun."

“I think so too—but don’t use it recklessly. The Lord also said that an overdose of this stuff can cause mental instability when facing you…like what happened to me yesterday. For someone of your physique, this is quite dangerous. You don’t want to be killed for love for no reason, do you?”

Natasha scratched her face.

"To be honest, even if you had come out yesterday, I couldn't guarantee which way things would have gone... If you had come out with Xiao Guizi, it would have been even more unpredictable."

"Who would give someone so much medicine..." Bai sighed with lingering fear.

“A twisted love is a double-edged sword,” Natasha sighed.

It's a double-edged sword for Liu Bai, but for her it's purely negative.

In particular, this medicine doesn't affect basic judgment much—for example, Natasha, who has actually met Liu Bai, wouldn't be attracted to photos or anything like that.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. I won't take your clothes off today. Just delete your local chat history and we'll call it a day."

Okay, though I hate to admit it, Natasha does have a thing for younger men.

After learning that Liu Bai was indeed younger than her—even if only by a tiny bit—Natasha became much more tolerant.

Seeing that Liu Bai obediently deleted the chat history, Natasha's expression improved considerably.

"Speaking of which, I can't believe your decision-making ability is even younger than mine... You should be the delicate, hothouse flower, right?"

"I think it's alright? That's mostly based on rational judgment."

“It’s precisely because it’s based on rational judgment that it’s not easy,” Natasha retorted. “You’re talented but you don’t even know it… Honestly, I have nothing to say to you talent-obsessed people.”

The hardest thing to admit in the world, yet one that we have to acknowledge, is that sometimes the difference between people is greater than the difference between people and dogs.

"I was inexplicably labeled."

"That's what creates distance, my friend."

This time, Natasha called him "brother" much more naturally.

It sounds like he doesn't intend to continue arguing with Liu Bai about this issue.

Natasha walked to the door and took a deep breath: "Brother, what's next... is hell."

"It wasn't me who caused it."

"If I ever kill you, it will be because of your sarcastic remarks!" Natasha's face flushed again.

"Because such opportunities are rare, right? And..."

Natasha, who instantly understood Liu Bai's meaning, was speechless.

Moreover, very few can be made to look like this.

It's no wonder that people who know you will find fault with such a dark history that could become a stain on your life.

"Fine, I'll let you off this time." Natasha took a deep breath and silently pushed open the door.

The scene before my eyes was one of utter chaos.

Claw marks from some kind of creature were visible all over the sofa, TV, and wall.

Some kind of charred mark extended from the kitchen all the way to the living room.

Liu Bai cautiously peeked into the living room.

"...Sis, did you summon an evil god in the kitchen?"

thump.

Liu Bai's head was lightly tapped.

"...Don't worry about it, just clean it up."

Natasha doesn't dare to look Liu Bai in the eye right now.

"...Does the Chamber of Commerce offer cleaning services?" Bai felt that cleaning this up would be a bit of a hassle.

The kitchen was like a cult scene, with raw meat scraps and egg yolks scattered everywhere.

"Don't wash your dirty linen in public." Natasha tapped Liu Bai's head again. "Didn't you just get a water-type Divine Eye from Ye Lan? The kitchen is yours now."

"……Fine."

Anyway, Liu Bai felt that he had to entrust the Chamber of Commerce with the matter in the end, since Natasha's big claws had scratched him quite hard yesterday, and the room would probably need to be renovated.

…………

in the afternoon.

After a morning of hard work, the house was finally barely tidy up. After ordering the new furniture that needed replacing from Ye Lan, Liu Bai went downstairs to find Eden. He left the remaining odds and ends to Gui Naifen to help him tidy up.

The artist I hired has already drawn the L2D virtual character. All I can say is that if the money is right, efficiency is not an issue.

The virtual image and Eden are about 80% similar, which can be considered a prelude to Eden's future appearance in his true form.

"Good afternoon, please come in." Dian opened the door and invited Liu Bai in. "Coffee or black tea? Just so you know, both are instant."

"Black tea, please. I don't really like bitter things."

"Row."

The black tea powder and kettle were placed next to the coffee table, and Eden chatted with Liu Bai while brewing the tea.

"By the way, what happened at your house yesterday? I could hear it shaking from downstairs."

"My sister was drunk and made a mess of the house. Luckily, I spent the night at a friend's house yesterday."

Liu Bai knew Eden would ask this question, so he casually brushed it off.

"You've had a tough time being the younger brother," Dian remarked. "Please, by the way, my live stream..."

"Everything is ready. We can start broadcasting today. I'll go and help you set up the equipment. Take this opportunity to announce your debut on various platforms."

"...Huh? A debut declaration?"

"Yes, the debut declaration is something like, 'I, xxx, will be making my debut on the xxx platform. Please support me.' Of course, it needs to be polished a bit."

"……must?"

She calls herself something like "the most beautiful and ultimate angel, Eden-chan"...

"must."

"No one will watch, right? Besides, I don't think I'm really good at it..."

"It's okay, I'll help you buy views. We'll attract as many casual viewers as we can—you don't need to act cute and beg for donations like other virtual streamers. Just decide on tonight's song list, introduce yourself when you start the stream, and then sing. After you finish singing, say goodbye and end the stream. Everything will be OK."

"That's not difficult."

Eden breathed a sigh of relief. She hadn't been idle these past few days. Since she was going to start as a virtual streamer, she naturally took a look around.
