Honkai Impact 3rd, Paradise Typewriter isn't for making this kind of game.

On one hand, there's the scandal that's about to make headlines, and on the other hand, there's the issue of Mr. Xia Yuan's safety.

After struggling with her inner conflict for a while, she chose the latter, grabbing a nearby construction pipe and easily throwing it in front of the group of dolls, blocking their path.

click-

The ground cracked immediately.

If that thick, long pipe were close to half a meter long, the Herrscher of the Void might need to change to a Soul Steel body.

Turning around, she saw the tall figure wielding a steel pipe as a spear and angrily questioned, "Durandal, what are you doing? Big brother was promised to us by the Archbishop of Destiny. Are you trying to break this agreement by intercepting us without authorization?"

Yes, yes.

We've worked so hard without complaint, and now they're not even going to give us a little something in return?

"Ahem... I, I was just ordered to protect Mr. Xia Yuan's personal safety." Durandal felt a little guilty under the gaze of the Herrscher of Domination. She had just seen Mr. Xia Yuan being kidnapped, and she hadn't deleted the post asking for help yet, so she acted impulsively.

[Really? Why am I receiving a message from that Bitter Gourd Bishop?]

"I... this..."

The Herrscher of Domination narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing the other party. Just as she had been secretly gathering intelligence, the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal—Durandal—would never lie. And considering the post she had inadvertently browsed with her Corruption power earlier, the fact that the other party would come with her older brother made it even more intriguing.

"Never mind... come along if you want, since our lives are in your hands."

The strongest Valkyrie of Destiny, doesn't understand the feelings between men and women? Then let her teach him what a real date is. Whether eating counts as a date depends on how you eat.

She wanted to thoroughly humiliate her opponent in this field.

Fortunately, her older brother was right beside her, and there was no better opportunity than this. Of course, she would never make the same mistake she made at the dojo that led to Mei's success. This time, she was well-prepared.

The Herrscher of Domination opened the metal door of a small, dark room.

As Mr. Xia Yuan was led into a dimly lit room by the Herrscher of Domination's puppet, Durandal hesitated for a moment at the door. This looked like a torture chamber.

They actually brought Mr. Xia Yuan to a place like this...

[What? Afraid to come in? The strongest Valkyrie in Destiny is nothing special, I think.]

The Herrscher of Domination's words carried a hint of mockery.

"Hmph, if they do anything to harm Mr. Xia Yuan later, I will stop them immediately and report the information to the bishop."

[It really is reliable~]

The Herrscher of Domination lowered her head and gestured for them to enter from the doorway.

Durandal stepped into the room, and immediately a sense of spatial transfer enveloped her entire body. She seemed to have been teleported to a strange area until the dim yellow lights above lit up one by one, illuminating the theater and stage directly in front of her.

Welcome to the Dating Theater!

[Please take your seats as soon as possible, the performance is about to begin.]

"It appears that this space was transformed by the Herald of a Thousand through his control of the theater."

Chapter 675 Big Brother, Open Your Mouth~

"We don't know what the Herrscher of Domination is planning yet, so let's sit down as she suggested for now."

Durandal decided to wait and see.

As she settled into her seat in the audience, the curtain hanging above the theater seemed to gradually fall.

Act One

Big brother, thank you for saving me on the moon. As a way of repaying you, can I treat you to a meal?

Standing in the middle of the theater, Xia Yuan was still confused about what the Herrscher of Domination was up to all of a sudden. Was she role-playing or performing some kind of stage play? But if he didn't agree, he felt like she would burst into tears.

Well, in this respect, he was indeed completely at the mercy of the other party, just like the pink fairy.

He nodded slightly.

Thank you so much, big brother! I know a restaurant called Houmu that makes really good fried rice. Shall we go eat there together?

One second she might be sobbing.

The next second, the Herrscher of Domination affectionately took his arm, just like a couple.

The lights, which were originally focused on the two performers, suddenly shone on another area of ​​the theater. A restaurant called Houmu, located on the right side of the theater, was vividly revealed from a hidden compartment below the stage as a gear mechanism was turned.

A very eye-catching sign stands in front of the restaurant.

【Today's Limited】

Couples can complete the challenge together and get it for free.

"It's free~ Big brother, can we pretend to be a couple and complete the challenge?" The Herrscher of Domination kept rubbing against his arm and acting cute, like a little wildcat that had been tamed.

Thinking of Bronya and Mei, and now there's Miss Kuroki too.

If this were a stage play, Durandal would most likely be watching the performance from the audience. He shook his head and refused the Herrscher's request to pretend to be his lover.

[It's free! Big brother, can we pretend to be a couple and complete the challenge?]

But it seems that when he refuses, the Herrscher of Domination gets stuck and repeats the same words over and over again, giving him the feeling of playing an RPG game. If he doesn't agree, there's no way to move the plot forward.

Left with no other choice, I had to agree.

He could see Durandal sitting upright in the audience, her eyes seemingly conveying a message that if he were in danger, he should just blink and she would rescue him as quickly as possible.

But he felt...

From the very beginning, the Herrscher of Domination seemed to have no intention of harming herself, as if she were performing a stage play.

"Great! Let's find a seat by the window, big brother, so we can soak up some sun."

He was pulled to a seat by the excited Herrscher woman, and then another doll wearing a waiter's apron placed a large plate of fries and salad dressing in front of the table. "This is your couple's set meal. Please enjoy."

The Herrscher of Domination coated both ends of the fries with salad dressing, held them in her mouth, and brought her cheek close to Xia Yuan's.

Come on, big brother, open your mouth, ah~~~~

Seeing this, Durandal blushed instantly. Recalling the post she had made, she finally realized that this date scene between the Herrscher of Domination and Mr. Xia Yuan was specially prepared for her.

This kind of thing, this kind of thing...

Durandal silently stood up and walked from the audience to the two people in the center of the stage.

Snapped--

She slammed her hands heavily on the table, determined not to let the Herrscher of Domination escalate the situation further into a date. This was also to prove her point: it was simply inviting Mr. Xia Yuan to dinner, definitely not a date!

[Excuse me, audience member, could you please not disturb the performance? Or are you trying to say you want to feed the older boy some fries too?]

He was interrupted.

The somewhat disgruntled Herrscher swallowed the fries, which were covered in salad dressing, without chewing them at all.

"I...I'm just worried that you might have poisoned the food, and I'm also forbidden from doing anything that crosses the line of friendship with Mr. Xia Yuan," Durandal emphasized, but the Herrscher of Domination smiled with pleasure upon hearing this.

Because the fish took the bait.

[Your older brother hasn't even said anything yet, so what are you really thinking, as the strongest Valkyrie of Destiny?]

Or perhaps you actually wanted to feed the older brother fries, but were restrained by morality and your inner self? Don't worry, I'm not that stingy; I'm happy to share!

The Herrscher of Domination handed Durandal a large plate of fries covered in salad dressing.

What kind of person do they take her for?

How could she possibly eat what the other party offered, let alone collude with the Ruler of Domination?

As expected, Durandal remained unmoved, but she could lend a hand, since she loved helping others. The Herrscher of Domination took out a communication device from somewhere and handed it to Xia Yuan.

"Big brother, I think I saw some very interesting content on the Destiny Forum, and there's also a very interesting chat log between a father and daughter."

"?!"

Durandal quickly stood up and grabbed the other person's wrist first. "I'll eat... I'll eat it. Cough cough, I'm just checking if there's anything extra added to the food."

Faced with the threat of the Herrscher of Domination, Durandal ultimately chose to compromise.

The only things she didn't want Mr. Xia Yuan to see were the posts she made on the Tianming Forum and her chat history with her adoptive father.

Then let's eat quickly~

[As the strongest Valkyrie in Schicksal, your training must be very tough, right? That's why I've prepared a whole table full of fries covered in salad dressing for you. Make sure you eat them all, not a single one left, without wasting a single one!]

I glanced subconsciously at the mountain of fries piled up on the next table.

If she finishes all these high-calorie foods, her training volume will probably double next month.

Big brother, come here, open your mouth~

"?!"

Why are you glaring at me? You're eating from your plate, and I'm eating from my older brother's mouth. Do you have a problem with that?

"Well......"

Watching the communication device swinging back and forth in the Herrscher of Domination's hand, she suddenly had an urge to summon the Star Anchor Armor and deliver a blow that pierced through the stars. Unfortunately, the other party had her chat history with her cheap father, so she could only silently clench her hands.

The other person's personality remains as awful as ever.

I get it, you think eating fries alone is a bit boring, so how about we do something more fun? Like...

Chapter 676 I can't eat anymore!

[Would you like to be fed by your older brother?]

"?!"

Upon hearing the Herrscher of Domination's words, Durandal, sitting in her seat, instinctively tensed up.

"Big brother, look, the strongest Valkyrie of Destiny is right beside you right now. The chance to conquer her is right before your eyes, within easy reach. Aren't you tempted, big brother?"

The Lady Ruler whispered something in his ear.

As the embodiment of the will of a thousand people, she possesses the ability to influence the emotions of others and bewitch their hearts. Although they are old friends, Durandal and Mei are still different. Durandal is more bound by the constraints and sense of responsibility in her heart than Mei.

This was also a sudden idea that the Herrscher of Dominion had after meeting Durandal.

The strongest Valkyrie of Destiny gradually falls into depravity under his own guidance. What could be more interesting than this? I believe that bitter gourd bishop will definitely be shocked.

Under the gentle persuasion of the Herrscher of Dominion, he seemed to be somewhat tempted.

The Herrscher of Domination seized the opportunity, taking advantage of the fact that her older brother hadn't yet noticed anything amiss, and took his wrist, guiding him step by step to bring the fries covered in salad dressing to Durandal's mouth.

As the strongest Valkyrie of Destiny, she looked at the fries Mr. Xia Yuan handed her, and at that moment she was like a helpless little girl.

Eating it will grant the will of the Lord of Domination.

If she doesn't eat, her boyfriend will expose her communication records with her cheap dad, blaming him for constantly urging her to find a boyfriend and other such nonsense.

Eating it is not an option, nor is not eating it.

As she rubbed her lips against the fries, a thick ring of salad dressing clung to the edges. She gently peeked out with her tongue and could feel the subtle sweetness around her.

Seeing that Durandal kept her mouth tightly shut and refused to open it.

The Herrscher of Domination couldn't help but threaten, "What? You won't even eat the fries your big brother personally handed you? Or do you want to share some secrets that only you know with your big brother?"

"secret?!"

Recalling what her adjutant had done to Mr. Xia Yuan, she, as the captain, felt an inescapable responsibility.

It was just that Mr. Xia Yuan fed me fries; it shouldn't count as a date between lovers, right? Besides... what's more, the other party was coerced by the Herrscher of Domination because of an agreement.

Just eat your food normally, just like you would at any other time.

But why...?

Why is her heart rate beating so frequently? It's almost synchronized with the simulated training.

After a fierce internal struggle, Durandal finally opened her mouth slowly. With the guidance of the Herrscher beside her, Xia Yuan slowly inserted the fries he was holding into her mouth.

“Um, Mr. Xia... Mr. Xia Yuan, it’s too, too deep.”

The length of the fries plus the length of a finger, Durandal's voice trembled slightly as she suppressed her discomfort and spoke to remind the other person.

"I'm sorry."

Xia Yuan, realizing that he had accidentally stuck his index finger in as well, quickly put the fries on the other person's flat little tongue, almost making a big mistake and falling into the trap of the Herrscher of Domination.

He turned around and glared at the other person.

[Big brother, why are you staring at me like that? Are you trying to feed me fries? Big brother, ah~~~]
