My wife, who's in a vegetative state, please stop eavesdropping on my thoughts.

"In that case, we'll be able to find Lord Thunder Emperor soon, right?"

Off on a date~~~

Vera's eyes gleamed with fervor as she followed the arrow and jogged away from the mansion.

Her steps were so light they seemed to be walking on clouds, and her skirt swayed with the rhythm of her jog.

The night patrol members guarding the gate immediately let her through after seeing her night pass.

Aunt Bai, look what you've done!

the other side.

Having successfully escaped the Serenis family mansion, Weiss is currently hiding in a forest on the outskirts of Moonlit City.

He leaned against a thick oak tree, his face so gloomy it seemed to drip water.

Although the distance between them has increased.

But this is clearly not a long-term solution...

Weiss squinted, pondering his next strategy.

Vera, this woman, is an 8th-level delusional, but she advanced from a 9th-level hysteria.

Those who can enter this category are either mentally ill, have multiple personality disorder, yandere, multiple personality disorder, depression, autism, Down syndrome, or are basically geniuses certified by authoritative assessment agencies.

To put it bluntly, Vera is a complete lunatic.

Since she was able to locate the Moon Goddess by the scent left on her hands today...

Who knows, one day you might find yourself with that pink arrow pointed directly at your face.

Therefore, hiding for a day or two is useless.

This time bomb must be eliminated at its root...

Weiss narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

I quickly made up my mind.

Half an hour later.

Vera, who had been jogging after the pink arrow, stopped, panting.

Before her appeared a huge lake.

Under the still night sky, the lake surface resembles a giant silver mirror, reflecting the bright moon.

All around was silent, except for the rustling of the reeds in the gentle breeze.

Under the moonlight.

Located on the shore of a lake.

A man in a white trench coat stood there.

The figure's silhouette was surrounded by a white, feather-like turbulence, like a hazy mist, obscuring its face and posture, yet exuding an indescribable sense of mystery and oppression.

Without a doubt—

The raging winds that shielded his entire body were the man's trademark.

It was none other than the Moon Thunder Emperor who had instantly killed that Star Eight-Times-level cultivator, the one Vera had been longing for day and night, the very person she had been dreaming of!

"Splash, splash—"

Vera's heart began to pound violently.

Her breathing suddenly became rapid, and her cheeks burned red beneath the mask.

Oh my god!!!

She found it so quickly!!!

Lord Thunder Emperor is actually here!!!

"Thunder...Lord Thunder Emperor?"

Is that you?

Vera forced herself to suppress her excitement, gripped her skirt tightly with both hands, and carefully walked over step by step.

He heard a woman calling out.

The "Moonlight Thunder Emperor" standing by the lake turned his head.

He didn't say anything, but just stared coldly at the pink-haired girl with curly hair who slowly walked forward.

Logically speaking, being stared at by the Moon Emperor, who is suspected to be a Tier 5 transcendent, should make any mentally healthy transcendent feel unparalleled fear and dread.

however.

At this moment.

Vera, however, was not intimidated at all.

It's clear that they were mentally prepared to give everything.

A few seconds later, she walked openly to the Moon Emperor's side, and with a slightly infatuated look, she began to declare her independence as if no one else was around:

"Lord Thunder Emperor..."

"I love you, please marry me!!!"

"..."

"..."

Uh......

Weiss's eyes, hidden by his trench coat, twitched violently.

Although he had already received information that Vera was going to propose to him directly, he still didn't react to her zero-frame start and was completely stunned by this operation.

He doubted that he wasn't stronger.

This woman might have already locked herself in the basement and abused herself day and night...

What a troublesome woman...

After a few seconds of silence, Weiss took a deep breath from beneath his robes and then spoke in a serious tone:

"actually--"

"I'm all about looks."

"you......"

"Lord Thunder Emperor, I'll pick it right away!!!"

Before Weiss could even finish his implied message, Vera, instantly understanding, reached out to remove her mask.

Upon seeing this, Weiss almost spat out his saliva.

So this mask isn't an important part of your character design?

Is it really possible to just pick it off like that?!

So what are you doing wearing a mask every day?

Just as Weiss was mentally ranting, Vera had already grabbed both sides of the mask and gently lifted it off.

The moment the mask was removed, the pink curly hair, freed from its restraint, fell loosely and softly to her shoulders.

The next second, an incredibly exquisite face was exposed to the moonlight without reservation.

Upon seeing Vera's lineup, Weiss's eyelashes twitched slightly in surprise.

Is this woman really that cute?

Although he never thought Vera was ugly.

But to my complete surprise, after taking off the mask, she turned out to be a well-behaved and adorable pink-haired little girl.

Her skin was so fair it was almost translucent, her nose was small and pert, and her lips were a pale cherry color.

It feels like it's perfect for posting videos with a filter that makes you look whiter than a dead person.

However, the next second, Vera slowly opened her eyes.

Weiss's breath caught in his throat for a moment.

This woman's pupils are heart-shaped...

Those pink, heart-shaped pupils, bathed in moonlight, radiated a sickly yet alluring glow.

Uh.

Is this really not a character from a doujinshi?

Weiss remained unresponsive for a long time.

Vera quickly and shyly put her hands behind her back, a faint blush rising to her cheeks, and explained in a coy little voice:

"Um... Lord Thunder Emperor..."

"Those of our kind who possess extraordinary abilities all have very strange eye patterns."

"They're usually not hearts, but stars or circles..."

"So, I usually wear a mask."

"but--"

"If Lord Thunder Emperor wishes to see your face, I can only show it to you from now on."

Uh, this, ah...

Weiss was completely devastated.

Although Vera's tone itself wasn't ambiguous, combined with her heart-shaped eyes, it sounded rather suggestive, like lines from a script.

Besides, it's just a mask, not something vulgar. There's no need to create this atmosphere that might not pass censorship...

Even so, Weiss had to admit it.

At this moment, Vera with heart-shaped eyes revealed her true form.

She does indeed retain some of her charm...

That morbid allure makes you want to look at it a few more times.

but--

He is now married to Elune.

Elune is the best in the world!!!

On the contrary, getting entangled with this kind of yandere woman will definitely bring you bad luck for the rest of your life.

Therefore, Weiss decisively rejected Vera.

"Go back now, and don't come looking for me again."

"I already have a wife—"

"..."

"Wife, wife!?"

Upon hearing this...

Vera was stunned, as if struck by lightning.

The pink heart-shaped pupils that had been twinkling quickly dimmed.

"Puff-"

Vera then collapsed onto the grass by the lake, her legs giving way.

She stared at the sky with a look of utter disbelief, her eyes vacant and her pupils unfocused.

How is that possible?!
