Neurolink System in the Modern World

Chapter 509 Constraint and Restriction

I felt like I had hurt her a lot by making her suck my cock, and played with her emotions.

Seeing her cry, I was tempted to manipulate her thoughts just like old times, but doing so would be like lying to myself.

I wanted her to choose me willingly, without any manipulation, or else it would make everything feels fake.

"I'm sorry," I repeated. "I didn't mean it. I just wanted to cure you,"

She continued to cry, her shoulders shaking as she tried to catch her breath between sobs.

It was the first time I had cared about a woman crying like that.

"I know," she finally managed to choke out between sniffles. "I know you didn't mean it. It's just... it's just so hard."

'What was hard ? My cock or me telling you to suck it ?' My mind wandered into forbidden territory, but I managed to calm my emotions down .

I remained silent, because I might say something inappropriate again, so I just allowed her to cry freely until her heart was satisfied.

After a few more seconds, she eventually stop crying, and pushed me away slowly.

'Let's pretend this never happened,' she murmured, closing her eyes and attempting to regain her composure.

As she opened her eyes, her demeanor returned to its previous state.

Composed and confident, the powerful woman from before had returned, but this time, I could sense a colder shoulder as she looked at me.

I didn't mind it much; I enjoyed the challenge.

With a snap of my fingers, I could have any girl I desired, including her.

But, I went on this long route deliberately, for I didn't want things to come too easily, or I might just die of boredom.

Besides, among all the women I've encountered, I still regarded Shao Mi as perfect woman to stay by my side.

Despite her sheltered upbringing leaving her naive to the world's ways, she possessed an innate innocence and principles.

I wouldn't even be surprised if they were currently on an emergency meeting to uncover my identity and assess my threat level.

If Shao Mi were to reveal herself, she would be captured immediately for interrogation.

"I can't do it," I lied, "Using the gate consumes a huge amount of my powers. I need to wait for a certain period before I can open it again."

I knew she had no way of verifying my claim anyway, so this was the best course of action.

After hearing my explanation, she displayed no hint of disappointment and just accepted my words.

"Alright, I'll just follow you," she spoke with a neutral tone. Continue your journey with My Virtual Library Empire

"Hey, do you hate me? If you do, then I won't impose myself on you anymore. You can stay in an Inn while I handle my affairs. After I send you back, we can part ways," I suggested.

She was stunned after hearing me, taking a few moments before she could muster a reply.

'I— I don't hate you,' she said softly, 'I just don't know how to act towards you after what happened. Please, just give me more time to sort out my feelings.' Her eyes avoided mine this time, showing her inner turmoil.

"Alright, take your time," I replied, giving her space to process her thoughts.

After all the drama had subsided, we went out to search for Zayen.

It was odd; when I attempted to access Zod's memories, there was no trace of her whatsoever.

Not even her son, was present in his recollections.

That's why I decided to head straight to Zelly's room.

There were a lot of defense mechanisms in place, but thanks to my abilities, bypassing them was a simple task.

However—

The moment we reached her room, I sensed something was amiss.

Suddenly, I felt weaker, and it wasn't just me; Shao Mi also experienced it, being forced to kneel on the floor.

'What's happening?' I murmured, closing my eyes and attempting to figure out the source of this constraint.
