Chapter 291: 291, I Choose Neither (Make-up Leave Update 1/2)_1
Alyssa was that decisive in her character. Rather than prolonging the situation that drew all three parties deeper into confusion, it was better to lay everything on the table now and get it over with as soon as possible.
At the same time, she was a little flustered.
What if Su Yu said, âI want them both.â What would she do then?
She certainly couldnât amend the Empireâs monogamous laws for Su Yu, right? And she couldnât possibly share Su Yu with another woman, even if that woman was Tina, who she got along with rather well.
âRegarding this issueâŠâ Su Yu didnât hesitate too much. He had his answer ready long ago. âI will choose neither of you.â
âWhy?â Alyssa was taken aback by Su Yuâs response. Her heart throbbed like a thunderclap on a clear day. âCould it beâŠyou like men?!â
Su Yu:
He almost fell from his swing.
Alyssa propped her chin on her hand and rambled on to herself, âCould it be the adventurer from another world called âSnow Leopardâ that you like? I heard from the older generations that male druids, especially those who can transform into bears, will have a great advantage after marriage, you will naturally understand what kind of advantage they were talking about after your marriageâŠâ
âEnough, Alyssa.â Su Yu laughed helplessly and interrupted her. How did the conversation become so twisted? Æreewebηoveâ.com
âMy orientation is normal. I donât like men, not at all!â Su Yu said earnestly.
âThen youâŠâ
âHow about this?â Su Yu rubbed his forehead. âLetâs go to Tinaâs house together. In front of Tina, I will tell you in detail why I made this decision. How does that sound?â
âFine.â Alyssa nodded in agreement.
A few minutes later, Su Yu and Alyssa arrived at Tinaâs house together.
Tina was still bedridden, but that wasnât an issue. Su Yu explained the entire situation and its reasons to her.
When she learned that Alyssa was asking Su Yu to choose between them, Tina, while confident, felt a twinge of nervousness.
When she finally learned that Su Yu didnât choose either of them, she was greatly puzzled.
Given her bond with Su Yu, he should have chosen her! Why did he not choose her?
The gaze of Tina and Alyssa both turned towards Su Yu simultaneously, waiting for an explanation.
âActually, itâs like this,â Su Yu began to explain slowly. âDo you know how us otherworldy adventurers ended up in this world?â
Alyssa nodded, âOf course, you were all summoned by Lady Bernina Tide.â
âThatâs part of itâŠâ Su Yu continued, âDo you know the mission of us otherworldly adventurers?â
Alyssa and Tina looked at each other, shaking their heads in unison.
Su Yu steadied himself and said, âIâll first introduce you to the basics of our worldâŠâ
For a while after that, Su Yu went into detail about the specific circumstances of Blue Star, the fact of alien invasion (his term was âdifferent dimension invasionâ), the mission players carry in the game worldâŠand so on.
At the end of his talks, Su Yu added, âIf the invading dimension canât be dealt with in my world, I only have ten and a half months left to live. Given the different flow of time, I only have ten and a half years left in this world. Therefore, does it really matter who I choose?â
Listening to Su Yu, Tina and Alyssa both lowered their heads and fell into deep thought.
They had never thought much before about where these adventurers from different worlds came from. They had no idea that these adventurersâ home world was facing such a huge crisis.
They understood the invasion from different dimensions.
This was like when minor planes like [Star Realm] and [Void] attacked the main world. If the main worldâs power was weak, it indeed would be a big problem.
If Su Yu and his group of adventurers from another world canât withstand the invasion from different dimensions, then his days were indeed numbered, and it indeed made no sense to discuss who among them he would be with.
Once they understood this, Tina, struggling to sit up from her bed, look resolute. âSu Yu, is there anything I can help with? As long as I can help, I will not refuse!â
âThank you, Tina!â Su Yu was deeply grateful, tousling Tinaâs hair lightly.
âMe too!â Alyssa also stood up, her face becoming earnest. âSu Yu, youâve made great contributions to the Empire, and even in the recent decisive battle, the crucial role of Lady Bernina was due to your summoning. Your problem is my problem. I will definitely help your world overcome this difficulty!â
After she finished speaking, Alyssa moved a little closer to Su Yu, as if hinting at something.
Su Yu didnât play favorites, reaching out to tousle Alyssaâs head, âThank you too, Alyssa. Thank you for your support!â
This was the first time in Alyssaâs life that someone had tousled her hair like this. Her cheeks turned slightly red, but she felt oddly comfortable.
âCould this be what they call âthe caress of a loverâ in the legends?â Alyssa thought quietly to herself.
At the same time, she looked at Su Yu, âSo, how can we help you?â
Su Yu thought for a moment, then replied, âFirst of all, we adventurers from different worlds need to enhance our abilities. We need more high-ranking warriors.â
âUh-huh, what else?â
âAdditionally, we need high-grade and high-quality âgoldenâ equipment and tools.â Su Yu pointed to his [Lighthouse Sudden Chill Set]. âOnly equipment of this golden color can be brought into my world.â
Tina suddenly realized, âSo thatâs why!â
No wonder Su Yu valued her blood so much and repeatedly emphasized to her not to disclose the fact that her blood can turn into gold.
If she does speak out, she might attract otherworldly adventurers with greedy intentions to attack her!
It seems that she needs to protect herself and this secret carefully in the future.
Alyssa, on the other hand, nodded in understanding, âI see, I will ask my subordinates to help you collect as many golden artifacts and tools as possibleâŠbut according to the worldâs rules, I canât directly give you these items. You have to complete tasks in exchange.â
At that point, Alyssa suddenly brightened up!
She could bring out a lot of high-ranking golden artifacts and tools as âbaitâ in the future, which would keep Su Yu by her side doing tasks all the time.
And Tina definitely couldnât bring out many golden artifacts (she didnât know that Tinaâs blood could turn into gold), so Tina and Su Yu would slowly drift apart, and she would be the ultimate winner!
Thinking of this, Alyssa was in a great mood, a radiant smile spreading across her face.
Also, she could bring out a great item right now to make Su Yu happy.
Alyssa laughed, âSu Yu, I havenât thanked you yet for summoning Lady Bernina to win the decisive battle! Letâs take this opportunity to give you the reward you deserve!â
Alyssa waved her hands in the air, forming a special gesture.
Shortly after, a faint green portal appeared in front of the trio.

Alyssa carefully reached into the portal and brought out a cat egg that was glowing with starlight and handed it to Su Yu.
âDing, you have completed the main plot [Goldfinch Empire (75/100)].â
âYou have received a reward: [Starlight Cat Egg (Legend)] X1.â
