Chapter 37: Speechless About His Luck In Love
"So, Cerberus is a Zenith Avatar? It seems that the god simulation has labeled Cerberus as a Zenith Avatar, an evolved form that has absorbed 13 avatar crystals."
Linsley muttered after witnessing the events within the god simulation.
He had been concerned that Hellhound might still have a chance of resurrection, but the fact that Cerberus had dropped 13 avatar crystals reassured him that Cerberus was truly dead, and with it, the possibility of Hellhound's resurrection was nullified.
"The only way Hellhound could come back is if there's an avatar master out there with the ability to resurrect someone," Linsley thought. He knew that resurrection was a plausible power, given that instant death was a known ability wielded by the Death Envoy.
Having encountered and defeated an infamous avatar master like Hellhound, and discovering that Hellhound was indeed a Zenith Avatar Master, Linsley speculated that the Death Envoy was likely a Zenith Avatar Master as well.
After all, the Death Envoy wouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as Hellhound if he wasn't on that level.
"Anyway, even if the god simulation ends now, I've already gained a lot of rewards. I'm satisfied."
"As for the marriage with Evangeline, I'm not opposed to it, and I doubt my simulated self would be either."
"In essence, the simulated self is still me. The only difference is that I can't interfere in the god simulation, but I can still experience all the senses and even the pain that the simulated self goes through."
"So the mindset and intelligence of the simulated self is identical to mine."
With that understanding, Linsley continued the god simulation, and the text system screens reappeared, accompanied by the experiences and memories that his simulated self had undergone.
[After you and Evangeline had a pleasant conversation, you noticed that she didn't seem to be against the idea of marrying you.]
[Thanks to your past life experiences, you could easily discern whether someone was being genuine. You realized that while Evangeline didn't love you, she did like you.]
[You were aware of your own qualities—handsome, powerful, with a decent personality—so if Evangeline had been opposed to the marriage, the only explanation would have been that she had someone else she loved. But that clearly wasn't the case, and she seemed to have a favorable impression of you.]
[Your relationship with her was more akin to close friends. After all, the two of you had fought together, and you had saved her.]
[However, unlike the clichés in novels where the heroine falls head over heels for the hero after being rescued, Evangeline only harbored a good impression of you.]
[She might not be in love with you, but she wouldn't reject you if you proposed marriage. As the heiress of the Solstice Family, she wouldn't let her emotions cloud her rational thinking.]
[Marrying you would bring considerable benefits to the Solstice Family, so Evangeline wasn't against the idea. Despite their wealth and influence, the Solstice Family lacked a powerful avatar master to shield them in the dangerous world of avatar masters.]
[Evangeline was indeed powerful, having absorbed seven avatar crystals, but it wasn't enough to protect the Solstice Family from threats like the Death Envoy and Hellhound.]
[According to what Evangeline told you, she was the strongest avatar master within the Solstice Family. While there were other avatar masters among her family members and subordinates, none were as powerful as her.]
[Avatar masters were rare in the world, and those who could successfully absorb even one avatar crystal were even rarer.]
[Avatar masters who had absorbed seven avatar crystals and achieved semi-evolution, like Evangeline, were a rarity.]
[Evangeline was already a force to be reckoned with in the avatar world, but the likes of Hellhound and the Death Envoy were on an entirely different level.]
[An avatar master like yourself was exceptionally rare. Your potential and talent were so high that you could bridge gaps between power levels with ease.]
[Even though you hadn't fully achieved avatar evolution, you could already defeat those who had, as long as their abilities weren't rule-based.]
[Reflecting on your power before absorbing any avatar crystals, you realized that while you might not have been able to defeat someone like Evangeline in a direct confrontation, you could still overpower other avatar masters who had absorbed seven avatar crystals in combat. Evangeline herself could have been taken down through assassination.]
[After all, even if an avatar master couldn't directly overcome their opponent's avatar, there were still ways to defeat the master.]
[As you continued chatting with Evangeline, learning more about the Solstice Family's situation, she eventually led you to your room.]
[When you arrived at the room and took in its interior, you noticed it was a master bedroom with a massive king-sized bed.]
[Seeing the bed, and realizing that Evangeline had entered the room with you, it quickly became clear that she intended to stay in this room as well.]
[Just to ensure you weren't misinterpreting the situation, you asked Evangeline, "This is my room, right?"]
[Evangeline glanced at the bed, then back at you, and shook her head with a small smile, "No, this isn't just your room; it's our room."]
[Evangeline continued, "I've heard that sleeping together can improve the relationship between a man and a woman. And I've also heard that not sleeping together can prevent a relationship from growing, so we'll be sharing this room to help strengthen our bond."]
[Her explanation left you speechless, and you couldn't help but think, 'Is my luck in romance really this good? Magia Fleur is already infatuated with me, Seraphina is sleeping in my bed, and now even Evangeline is planning to share my bed.']
['I've already got three girls who seem to like me. I can't be sure about Seraphina, but if I were to confess to Magia Fleur and Evangeline, they'd likely become my lovers. And then there's Seraphina, who's my fiancée on paper.']
[You shook off those thoughts, refocusing your mind. 'I'll worry about this later. For now, I need to concentrate on absorbing two more avatar crystals and achieving the complete evolution of my avatar.']
