Chapter 670 Love is A Double-edged Sword [Part 2]
Villain Ch 670. Love is A Double-edged Sword [Part 2]
For her, love was a double-edged sword, capable of bringing both joy and devastation in equal measure. And while she may have admired Godlike from afar, she had no desire to entangle herself in the complexities of romantic love.
It was a decision born out of fear, perhaps, but one that she had come to accept as necessary for her own well-being. She had chosen to freeze her heart, to distance herself from the allure of love and the pain it could bring.
She sat in the silence of her room, lost in her thoughts, and couldn't help but wonder if she was making the right choice. But for now, she was content to keep her emotions at bay, focusing instead on the battles that lay ahead in the virtual world. Love may be a tempting distraction, but she refused to let it derail her from her path.
A furrow suddenly formed on her brow as VirtualValkyrie pondered the strange connection between the devil emperor and Godlike. It was a puzzling thought, one that seemed to defy logic.
"Why do I keep remembering Godlike when I saw that devil emperor?" she muttered to herself, her confusion evident in her voice. It was a question that had been nagging at her ever since her encounter with the enigmatic character.
She mulled over the implications of her thoughts, and a flicker of realization sparked in her mind. Could it be that her fascination with the devil emperor was somehow linked to her memories of Godlike? It seemed unlikely, yet the connection felt undeniable.
But then, another thought crossed her mind, one that caught her off guard. What if she were to fall in love with the devil emperor? The idea seemed absurd at first, but the more she considered it, the more it made sense.
After all, a fictional character couldn't hurt her in the same way that a real human being could. With the devil emperor, there was a sense of safety, a reassurance that he was merely a creation of artificial intelligence, programmed to behave in a certain way.
"Yes, it must be just my curiosity," VirtualValkyrie thought, trying to rationalize her feelings. She glanced at her phone on the desk, contemplating whether to reach out to Emma about the emperor. "Since the character connected with the Goldborne's company, should I ask Emma about the emperor?" she murmured aloud, her voice barely above a whisper.
Emma, her cousin, was not just family but also a fellow gamer who shared her passion. Whenever VirtualValkyrie visited Emma's mansion, they would spend hours immersed in games, sharing strategies and experiences. Emma had played a significant role in nurturing VirtualValkyrie's love for gaming, and she valued her cousin's opinions and insights.
However, their meetings had become less frequent since VirtualValkyrie had decided to live independently. Moving away from her parents, she had embraced a new chapter in her life, one where she pursued her interests and ambitions on her own terms.
But somehow instead of reaching for the phone, she just stared at the phone. There was an uncomfortable feeling in her chest. Her heart was pounding and there was an unpleasant feeling from the pit of her stomach. She realized she was nervous. She was nervous just because she wanted to ask about the devil emperor! It was crazy!
With a nervous chuckle, VirtualValkyrie shook her head at her own absurdity. "Whatever, just ask her. It wasn't like I asked about a boy, right?" she quipped, trying to lighten the tension in her chest.
Despite her attempts at humor, she couldn't shake the unease that gnawed at her. It was ridiculous, she knew, to feel this anxious about a simple question regarding a virtual character. But the more she dwelled on it, the more her heart raced and her palms grew clammy.
Summoning all her courage, VirtualValkyrie reached out and snatched her phone from the table. She held it in her hand, her fingers hovering over the screen as she hesitated. What was she so afraid of? It was just a question, after all.
Taking a deep breath, she forced herself to type out a message to Emma, her fingers moving with a newfound determination.
Azura: Hey, Emma. Are you still up? Can I ask you a thing or two about the Devil Emperor from Hell's Gate?
