Four Split Personalities

Unlike Cui Xiaoyu, Motan often gets some extra charisma boosts under different personalities. If the other party is into this, his lethality as a man would increase significantly.

For example, a group of ladies led by Countess Leisha Kayworth and Scarlett Disel.

For example, a group of ladies led by Diana A. Achizolti.

For example, a girl like Spider who almost considers him as a guiding light.

Of course, girls like Liya Delin Disel, who love him deeply, find him perfectly agreeable because they particularly like Motan’s character.

In short, Motan’s affinity with the opposite sex is actually not bad, and can even be said to be quite high.

In fact, even in the ’Absolute Neutrality’ state, which offers the least bonus among the three personalities, many people still pay great attention to Motan.

Even more than when he is ’Tan Mo’.

This is not difficult to understand. Compared to the ’male god’ or ’male neurosis,’ Motan under the absolute neutrality personality rarely gives anyone a sense of distance. Though distance might create beauty, it rarely incites substantial, practical emotions.

Moreover, even when he is ’Hei Fan,’ Motan has had his share of god-like spotlight moments.

So...

"Very handsome~"

Because the lobby was almost empty, rather than intimately taking Motan’s arm, Yu Chen stood downstairs, smiling and patting him on the shoulder: "Hmm, you shouldn’t embarrass Xiaoge and me!"

Motan laughed silently and then, pretending to be hurt, asked, "Do you think I’m that unpresentable?"

"Not at all."

Despite the warm and pleasant weather, Yu Chen wore knee-high boots under her short robe and had a small cloak over it. She shook her head vigorously and earnestly said, "I’m worried you might feel unpresentable yourself~"

[Exactly right.]

Motan chuckled internally, thinking that if the person he was about to meet was merely a ’friend’s friend,’ he might indeed worry about being unpresentable, as Yu Chen suggested.

However, that wasn’t the case now.

In front of the counterfeit he crafted, he was presentable, all things considered.

Though, in a certain sense, this was not necessarily a good thing.

"Ha..."

Motan exhaled deeply, smiling slyly at the girl walking beside him: "I’ll try not to embarrass us too much. Speaking of which, shall we go somewhere else to stroll around a bit?"

Yu Chen was slightly stunned: "Eh?"

"Honestly, due to some peculiar reasons, I’m a bit nervous right now."

Motan spoke half-jokingly to Yu Chen, displaying a sincere smile: "Didn’t you jokingly say last night we should go shopping? How about accompanying me for a stroll to ease my nerves?"

The girl glanced at Motan with a slightly flushed face then, after hesitating for just two seconds, finally pouted and took his hand, lightly humming, "Okay, let’s casually walk around with you then."

Motan was also a bit stunned, taking several seconds to react before using his free left hand to rub the tip of his nose awkwardly, asking: "No acquaintances nearby, no need to pretend..."

"I didn’t intend to pretend to be a couple with you!"

Yu Chen gently squeezed his hand, wrinkled her nose, and said seriously: "I’m holding your hand just to prevent you from getting lost!"

Motan chuckled.

Yu Chen hurriedly added nervously: "Not being tsundere either!"

"Got it~ I understand."

"Hmm! Then let’s set off, make sure to stick with me, otherwise Motan will definitely get lost."

"Have a little faith in me."

"The faith I should have was never less."

...

Thus, the two walked toward the Central District, taking their time without feeling rushed, casually shopping. Although they were in a game world with an entirely different worldview and Academy City had a level of prosperity that was very much online, the atmosphere between the young man and woman remained extraordinarily calm and serene.

Though both were occasionally stopped in their tracks by the plethora of goods and shop displays, in the short span of less than an hour, at least for both Motan and Yu Chen, what they enjoyed wasn’t the concept of ’shopping’ itself, but something else that was ineffable.

Yu Chen bought Motan a pair of adsorption cross earrings whose only feature was their ability to be worn without needing pierced ears, also toying with his usually ordinary, loose hair by tying it into a bold, forehead-revealing short ponytail, giving him an unruly bad-boy vibe.

Furthermore, Motan, succumbing to the girl’s fierce adjustments, rolled up his sleeve and pulled his left pants leg to knee height, forced into several very ’bad’ poses, and even asked to make matching expressions.

To return the favor, the girl laughed throughout the first half of the stroll but ended up being asked by Motan to take small sections of her always loose long hair into twin ponytails, and used magical tattoos costing two silver coins each to decorate her arms with goth-style black butterflies. Her properly worn cloak became slanty, leading her to make several juvenile delinquent-like poses, almost directly breaking down Motan’s defenses.

Girls are naturally talented actors, and though she’s typically a calmly shy, goody-two-shoes girl, after settling in (getting familiar with store staff) and as a seasoned viewer of the second world, Yu Chen, with tons of anime viewing and a live example of it right beside her, perfectly embodied that delinquent swagger. The effect was impressive.

In short, after spending a full quarter-hour in the store, the renewed Motan (equipped with secondary black crystal sunglasses, adsorption cross earrings, adsorption lip rings, slicked back hairstyle, open chest black leather armor, knee-high studded black boots, tight leather pants, Highlanders’ tusks bracelet) and Yu Chen (who innocently reverted to her departure look but bought plenty of clothes) suddenly realized it was already past seven, and hurriedly rushed to the [Steam Fish Pot 597th Branch] three streets away.

By the way, during this rush, Yu Chen stealthily (unintentionally?) pulled Motan back three times after he mistakenly (unintentionally?) took the wrong path. The first two times were due to him turning where he shouldn’t have, and the last time was when he didn’t turn where he should have.

Ultimately, when the duo finally arrived at the place arranged with Ji Xiaoge, the system clock happened to stop at PM19:28, barely not late.

Yet, predictably, upon entering the private room booked early by Fyari, Ji Xiaoge and her ’friend’ had already been waiting there for quite a while.

"S-sorry!"

Yu Chen, out of breath and resting her hand against the door frame, apologized with a flushed face from the hurried running, "We’re late!"

"Haha, we arrived early!"

Ji Xiaoge, giggling, left her seat and took Yu Chen’s arm at the door, then turned to glance at Motan with his freshly unlocked style. Her lips slightly pursed, she breathed out: "Pu-hahahahahahaha!"

Yu Chen: "Pfft~"

Motan, chuckling dryly, twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly, raising his hand to cover his forehead: "I knew it."

While the half-dragon man, who had been silently seated in the interior since earlier, with facial contours more angular than his real self and patches of dragon scales adoring his forehead and cheeks, thus appearing unlike Motan, and possessing an aura evoking a sense of safety, also rose and advised his laughing-to-tears ’partner,’ "Well now, isn’t it nice being able to gather for a meal inside the game, Night Song, you should tone down..."

[NICE!]

Motan discreetly shot Cole a ’nice work’ look in response to his almost identical to the ’Orderly Good’ personality version of himself, dependable outside yet carrying three parts care and two parts reluctance performance.

Moreover, Cole was also sagely understanding, nodding respectfully to Motan at an angle the two girls couldn’t see, displaying a pleasingly dependable face just to look at!
