Azure Prison Island Honeymoon

The soft touch of fine sand could be felt beneath his feet.

The sea breeze blew against his face, carrying a salty and damp scent, rustling the hem of his T-shirt.

Fang Qi took a deep breath...

And let out a long exhale!

There was no car exhaust here, no humming of coffee machines, and no clattering of colleagues typing on keyboards.

There was only the long rhythm of waves crashing against the shore, the clear calls of seabirds in the distance, and the rustling of the wind blowing through the palm leaves on the beach.

An island.

An island for just the two of them!

As a veteran player with 312 hours of playtime, the reason he chose this island was because among the game's many endings...

There was an island ending.

The trigger condition for that ending wasn't difficult. He only needed to proactively suggest "I want to go to a place with just the two of us" at a key choice to achieve it.

Liguang would gladly agree and take the player to a private island.

Ending 41 - Azure Prison

You chose "a place with just the two of us."

Liguang takes you to an isolated private island.

Sunshine, beaches, a villa, all facilities are readily available.

You can move freely around the island and enjoy her meticulous "love."

However, any means of contacting the outside world or leaving just happen to not exist.

This paradise becomes your eternal prison.

Her love is your only scenery, and your only law.

You will slowly come to understand all this in an endless "holiday."

Until forever.

BAD ENDING

In the reviews of the game's player community, this ending... was considered a "relatively good bad ending."

There was no gore, no pain, and no excessive confinement.

It was just being on a picturesque little island, enjoying the meticulous love of a little yandere every single moment.

Players could fish on the island, bask in the sun, and explore the jungle. Life could be called carefree, but...

They could never even think about leaving.

This was simply the best ending for him to slack off and do nothing!

It was just that he didn't expect the situation this time...

To have a tiny little accident.

"Master!"

A crisp and cheerful voice came from behind, carrying unhidden joy.

Fang Qi turned around, and the sight before him made his eyelids twitch slightly.

Liguang was standing barefoot in the ankle-deep seawater.

The hem of her light blue dress had been soaked by the waves, clinging wetly to her slender, pale calves.

Her long silver hair was loosely braided into a side plait that draped over her shoulder, with a few loose strands lifted by the sea breeze.

That little plastic star still hung from her left earlobe, gently swaying with her movements.

In her hands, she held a small basket woven from fresh palm leaves.

It was already more than half full of shells and conches, colorful and gleaming under the sunlight.

And what made Fang Qi unable to look away the most...

Was the smile on her face.

A genuine, unreserved smile, so radiant it was almost blinding!

Those phoenix eyes were curved into beautiful crescents!

Her amber left eye rippled with bright light, while joyful specks of starlight danced in her crimson right pupil!

Her breathtakingly beautiful face was flushed with excitement, her whole being lit up by the thought of "living alone with Master right away"!

"Master, look!"

"Liguang found so many pretty shells!"

She trotted up from the water, her small feet leaving a trail of damp, delicate footprints on the golden sand.

When she ran up to Fang Qi, she raised the palm leaf basket high like she was offering a treasure!

Her heterochromatic eyes looked up at him sparklingly, and in that gaze...

Was written a little expectation and pride that screamed, "Hurry and praise me!"

Fang Qi looked down into the basket.

Various shapes and colors, spiral patterned, fan-shaped, spotted... there were even a few complete little starfish!

"That's amazing!"

He praised sincerely, then reached out and vigorously rubbed her slightly damp silver hair!

Her hair was even softer and cooler after being wet by the seawater, feeling incredibly good to the touch.

He couldn't help but rub it a few more times.

"You picked up this many so quickly?"

She narrowed her eyes like a cat being petted, her cheek leaning deeper into his palm, and a satisfied, almost sigh-like hum escaped her throat.

"Mhm... Master's hand is so warm..."

Her voice became a bit muffled, carrying the sweet stickiness of being pampered.

Fang Qi felt the temperature of the skin beneath his palm quietly rising.

He looked down...

Liguang still had her eyes narrowed, but those long silver eyelashes... were trembling violently!

The corners of her lips, which were originally slightly turned up, were slowly stretching out to the sides!

The curve grew larger and larger, more and more exaggerated...

Finally settling into an almost crazed, brilliantly sweet smile that made one's heart palpitate!

"Hehe... shells... sand... the sea..."

She gently rubbed against his palm, murmuring in a voice like sleep talk, her breath scorching hot:

"They all belong... to Master and Liguang..."

She turned her face slightly, her heterochromatic eyes gazing up at him, that look so intensely hot it could melt someone!

Churning within them was an overflowing possessiveness!

"Master... Master is also Liguang's..."

Her voice was sickeningly sweet!

But the moment those words fell, she seemed to jolt awake herself!

Her body suddenly stiffened!

A clear flash of panic passed through those heterochromatic eyes that had just been brimming with obsession and possessiveness.

As if she had been burned, she quickly pulled away from Fang Qi's palm and took a half-step back!

The crazed smile on her face receded like the tide, fading at an astonishing speed.

She lowered her head slightly, her silver hair falling forward to conceal her profile as she rapidly adjusted her expression.

When she looked up again, that standard smile, docile, obedient, and even a bit shy, was back on her pretty face.

Only a lingering flush remained on her cheeks.

"To, to be able to do things for Master, Liguang is truly happy."

She said, her voice turning soft and proper once more.

She even stole a glance at him, her long eyelashes fluttering as she carefully observed his reaction.

Fang Qi couldn't help but purse his lips.

That's right.

The problem lay exactly here!

This crazy woman, she actually...

Hadn't turned dark!

After he said the phrase "go to a place with just the two of us"... he had actually prepared himself mentally to face Liguang turning dark on the spot.

But she...

Not only did she not turn dark, but she was even incredibly excited... discussing with him where they should go!

He was completely dumbfounded at the time!

And this island was indeed one that Liguang had suggested to him...

But... he was the one who brought her here!

Even now that they had landed on the island, she still showed no signs of turning dark!

She was incredibly happy, acting all clingy and affectionate!

He had clearly deviated completely from the game's main storyline...

But this crazy woman was still trying hard to play the role of the docile heroine!

She seemed to genuinely believe that her Master was simply tired of city life, tired of working and socializing...

And that was why he brought her to settle on the island!

She actually... didn't think there was anything wrong with this at all!

It really gave Fang Qi a headache and left him speechless!

Crazy woman, we're already on a deserted island...

What are you still acting for!

Stop acting already!

But... I guess this works too.

He rubbed his temples.

Whether she went dark or not, it didn't matter anymore!

They were already on the island; the ending was set!

He took the opportunity to pinch Liguang's cheek, then pointed to the white single-story cabin not far away:

"Put the things in the house first. By the way... I'm hungry."

The silver-haired girl's eyes instantly lit up again.

"Yes, Master! Liguang will go prepare lunch right away!"

She immediately hugged the basket of shells tightly and trotted briskly toward the cabin!

Under the sunlight, her back seemed to be plated with a soft golden edge, and her silver braids bounced on her shoulders as she ran!

Fang Qi watched her cheerful, contented back and suddenly felt that his decision...

...had no problems whatsoever.

He didn't regret it at all.

This choice... was absolutely right!

True, she didn't remember those eighty-two years of staying together, didn't remember the final self-destruction, and didn't remember that she used to call him "Aqi."

But...

The Liguang who recovered her memories in the last playthrough had told him herself!

All the Liguangs were her!

That gentle Liguang hadn't disappeared; she was right in front of his eyes!

She had just lost her memories!

She was still her!

She was still that crazy woman who treated him as her whole world, who wished she could knead him into her own body!

Besides—

Fang Qi narrowed his eyes and looked at Liguang.

The silver-haired girl was currently pushing open the cabin door with joy, skipping happily into the house like a bird returning to its nest!

He could even hear her joyful laughter:

"Hehe... Making a feast for Master! La la la..."

She was truly happy!

And in the last playthrough, how did this crazy woman recover her memories?

Through extreme emotional excitement and a sense of happiness!

He had proposed to Liguang in front of Gu Xi, and this crazy woman had been frozen into a puppet on the spot by the massive influx of memories!

And now?

There was no work pressure, no social troubles, and no female colleagues or Miss Commissioners to distract them!

On this isolated island, right now...

It was just the two of them!

Basking in the sun, picking up shells, eating seafood, and stargazing every day...

From morning till night, they only had eyes for each other.

Wouldn't this level of happiness... be maxed out right away?

Once the happiness accumulated to a certain point, maybe her memories...

...would come rushing back with a snap?

When that time came, his memory-restored wife Liguang would realize...

Her Aqi never had any intention of running away!

He wasn't even pursuing Eternal Love anymore!

He was just slacking off, keeping her company to live out their days on the island!

Wasn't this far better than some [Eternal Love]?

Who made the rule that a good ending had to mean clearing the game and leaving?

Who made that rule!

Accompanying his yandere wife, eating, drinking, playing, and being all lovey-dovey on a private island until the end of time...

Wasn't this eternal?

Wasn't this true love?

"...Ha!"

Fang Qi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Then, the slightly uncomfortable feeling in his heart immediately dissipated for the most part!

Sunshine, beaches, islands...

And a... happy little yandere picking up shells!

Just thinking about these days felt incredibly wonderful!

So what was he still feeling melancholy about? What was he still sad about?

Fang Qi, since when did you become so sentimental?

You need to pull yourself together!

Your Liguang was just lively and bouncing around picking up shells right in front of you!

Now she was planning to make you a grand seafood feast!

She just lost her memories! It wasn't like she was gone!

He could take his time, wait for her to remember little by little, or...

...simply create brand new, vivid memories that belonged only to this playthrough!

Not the fake memories constructed by Liguang in a dream, but...

...real memories belonging to the two of them, carrying the scent of the sea breeze!

He... had decided!

He, Fang Qi...

...was going to raise his own yandere wife!

A fixed ending like Eternal Love...

...was nowhere near as sweet as a wife he raised with his own hands!

"Master—!"

Liguang's voice came from the direction of the cabin, carrying a joyful trill that sounded exceptionally crisp in the sea breeze:

"Liguang found a full set of kitchenware in the kitchen! And stockpiled seasonings! We can have a grand seafood feast for lunch!"

He turned his head and saw the silver-haired girl leaning halfway out of the wooden window, waving vigorously at him.

The sea breeze blew her silver hair and skirt, and the smile on her face was so radiant that it almost melted into the bright sunlight!

"Coming!"

He raised his voice and replied.

His footsteps also became brisk!

The beach was soft, the sunshine was warm, and the sea breeze was gentle.

And ahead—

...was his cabin, and his Liguang.

To hell with Eternal Love!

To hell with the walkthrough ending!

This time, he was going to focus entirely on enjoying this...

...infinitely extended island honeymoon!
