The room, occupied by only two people, fell into silence.
The atmosphere was developing in a peculiar direction.
The air grew tense.
"Yelan?"
Qin Yu's lips parted, momentarily stunned.
At this moment, Yelan was completely restrained, unable to move.
Her alluring figure was exceptionally captivating under the etching of the laser beams.
Especially her long legs, wrapped in black silk, showing messy indentations.
They were like dark chocolate casually smeared with fine cream, whetting the appetite.
"Mmm...!"
Yelan subconsciously tilted her slender, snow-white neck.
She strained with all her might, attempting to break free.
*Szzip—*
The construct, sensing resistance, increased the energy output of the lasers.
Yelan's delicate body trembled.
The lasers brought heat and stinging pain.
As time passed, they would tighten their grip further.
This was originally designed for control.
But with Yelan, things had clearly taken a turn.
[Ding, Yelan's Emotion Points +1 +1 +1]
[...]
"Yelan, stop quickly!"
Qin Yu didn't have time to complain about the strange emotion points.
He quickly got up and reached out to help the fallen Yelan, to undo her restraints.
But as soon as he took a step.
"Wait a moment...!"
Yelan raised her flushed face, her slightly trembling beautiful eyes filled with seriousness.
Qin Yu was slightly taken aback.
"This feeling... allows me to grasp a new kind of power..."
"Let me... break free myself...!"
She bit her lip, letting sweat drip down her exquisite collarbones, soaking her clothes.
One could imagine the intensity of the pain.
But it was this stimulation that made Yelan's consciousness clearer and more agile.
She had once lived in seclusion, honing her archery until her fingers bled.
She relished the pain for the sake of touching higher levels of power.
Pain had never been forgotten.
Not just the physical sting of injuries, but also the guilt of losing companions and being alone.
And the heaviness and yearning every time she looked towards the Chasm.
What truths had the ancestors who protected Liyue buried on that brutal battlefield against the dark beasts?
"Heh."
A mocking smile curled Yelan's lips.
This bit of pain was far from enough to make her stop pursuing danger!
She would thoroughly investigate every factor that threatened Liyue.
"Drip—"
A crisp echo of dripping water reached her ears.
The air seemed to become moist.
"Hydro element power is about to react."
Qin Yu gazed at Yelan, his eyes filled with surprise.
When a person's desire is strong enough, the gods cast their gaze.
Was he about to witness the birth of a Vision wielder?
But at that moment, something unexpected happened.
*Voom—*
The construct trembled and flickered violently.
Yelan's increasingly forceful struggle had triggered Sandrone's hidden program.
The construct entered an overload state, about to completely eliminate the target!
"Mmm...!"
Accompanied by a pained groan, hideous blood marks appeared on Yelan's body, shocking to behold.
She was about to lose her grip.
"This won't do...!"
Qin Yu's expression turned serious, and he strode to Yelan's side.
He directly bent down and scooped Yelan up by her waist.
"Mmm...!"
Yelan was still stimulated by the pain, her entire body exceptionally sensitive.
Now, suddenly being held by a man in such an intimate posture, her cheeks flushed even redder.
"What... are you going to do?"
She raised her eyes, her lips twitching as if teasing.
Qin Yu wouldn't take advantage of her predicament.
"Still joking around."
Qin Yu shot her an exasperated glance and walked towards the bed.
At the same time, a verdant green light flared.
"This is...!"
Yelan's eyes widened.
A dense life aura brought warmth and healed her wounds.
Of course, the pain remained.
She gazed at Qin Yu, a flicker of wonder in her eyes.
Even when injured, she could be healed quickly.
And the laser construct.
Qin Yu could preserve the pain while preventing her from sustaining injuries...!
At that moment, Ms. Yelan discovered a new world.
Amidst the surprise, a certain feeling also gradually became clearer.
"It's Elemental Power...!"
Her whole body trembled, and the furrow of her brows finally relaxed.
She had grasped the power from the unseen forces.
*Splash—*
"?"
Qin Yu stared at the Hydro Vision on Yelan, frozen in place.
Although the acquisition of Visions was always sudden,
still...
*Drip, drip.*
Qin, listening to the dripping sound, fell into thought.
[Ding, a strange scene detected]
[Although I don't know why, a reward has been unlocked]
[Yelan's complete Talents and Constellations]
[Note: You can use Yelan's Emotion Points to teach her Talents and unlock Constellations, enhancing her strength]
Qin Yu: Why can't it be direct...?
[Your relationship is not deep enough]
Cough, alright.
Qin Yu had a headache.
Speaking of which, Yelan's emotion points were generated during pain.
Does that mean, when guiding her in the future...!
Qin, his brain overloaded.
"Qin Yu... Thank you."
Yelan was somewhat drained. She buried her face in Qin Yu's chest and whispered.
Once she stopped struggling, the lasers no longer tightened.
It was over.
She had, as she wished, mastered higher-level power.
"Remember to do my laundry."
Qin Yu sighed softly and carefully placed Yelan on the bed.
He had intended to just toss her over, but reconsidered.
After all, she was his secretary, so he had to be gentle.
"Including underwear?"
Yelan's lips curled, her gaze shifting.
The scattered Hydro elemental energy had wet it, making it look wrinkled.
She was referring to the fabric.
"If it's Qin Yu, then it's okay."
"?"
Qin Yu's face darkened, he didn't want to bother with her.
He retrieved the construct and dried Yelan completely.
He also took several glances at the black silk torn by the lasers.
In its disarray, there was a different kind of charm.
"Can I take a look?"
Yelan lay on the bed, looking expectantly at the construct in Qin Yu's hand.
"Again?"
Qin Yu said helplessly, subconsciously shaking his head.
But soon, he came to his senses.
Although strange, for his secretary...
It was still possible to gain Emotion Points.
Just as Qin Yu hesitated.
"You haven't used the dice penalty from before, have you?"
A strange light flashed in Yelan's eyes, and her voice was long and drawn out.
After all, you can heal instantly, right?
"..."
Qin Yu's gaze was peculiar. This was something Ms. Secretary had requested herself.
He was a decent person!
Then, our decent person, quite honestly, reached out his hand.
The room was soundproofed well.
No one would be disturbed.
...
On the other side.
Still at the Komore Teahouse, in an exceptionally spacious and luxurious room.
"Sigh... so bored."
The exquisite and beautiful girl murmured, listlessly stirring her black tea.
She blinked her sapphire-blue eyes and looked towards the other side.
"Sister Columbia, want to go out and play?"
"You want to play with your partner, don't you?"
Columbia put down her book and saw right through her.
Actually, she was also a little tempted.
"Then... Sister, do you want to come along?"
Sandrone whispered, wanting to drag her colleague and good friend to slack off.
"The Executive meeting is about to start, let's wait a little longer."
Columbia replied softly, looking in a certain direction.
There stood a woman of noble demeanor, cold and breathtakingly beautiful.
Her cascading silver-gray hair was as beautiful as ice and snow.
The Cryo Sovereign.
She had her back to the two girls, her head slightly lowered, as if in deep thought.
"What is Her Majesty the Queen researching?"
Sandrone frowned, it wasn't convenient to go up and ask.
She couldn't be playing video games before the meeting, could she?
