*Allen's POV*
Hello, it's been a while since we had one of these introspective moments where I analyze and reconsider my life and actions based on recent events.
First of all, I admit that I am weak when it comes to alcoholic beverages. Of course, I don't have to worry about that due to the powers and abilities related to the resistance to negative effects of the system. Although if I intentionally lower my resistance, I'll end up that way. It's not something I can be proud of; it's simply my reality.
Speaking of which, you might wonder if the system can confiscate my abilities. Well, it's possible, but I must allow it. I consider the system a part of me; it just became too natural to use it, and I can't imagine living without it.
[Host... I think I'm experiencing overheating due to your sweet words...]
'Hey, don't eavesdrop on my inner thoughts!'
It must be because of the connection between us. Also, if we delve deeper into that last topic, the system is more fused with me than my own abilities. Abilities are like the furniture of a house, while the system is the house itself, and, well, I'm the owner.
...
Setting that aside, while in an altered state, I made mistakes, many mistakes. One of them was with different women whom I corrupted, so to speak. I'm not concerned about the tattoos on Megan, Emma, and Rebecca, as the system can easily erase them. What worries me is the level of dependence and obsession they might have with me...
Even if the system assures me that none of them regret it and that they are fine, I can't simply abandon them. But, in fact, I'm breaking my rule of not getting involved with women I don't love. I think it's my punishment for being irresponsible. The most affected will be Gwen and MJ; well, this is part of the life of a man like me.
The number of women around me increased... for some reason, lately my problems with women seem to multiply. I need to control myself.
"Wait, we're not done talking!" said the beautiful black-haired girl with a murderous aura around her.
It's true, I'm being chased by a girl who experienced jealousy, betrayal, and heartbreak for the first time and all at once.
Diana threw a giant statue at me while I was fleeing through the city with a girl in my arms who wouldn't stop hugging me as if she wanted to merge with me. This only added fuel to the fire as Diana got angrier every second.
"Stay away from him, b****!" Diana shouted while tearing a piece of the ground and throwing it like a shuriken towards us. I used Bullet Time to dodge again.
I must say that, in part, I'm proud. Diana will no longer be a naive girl who can be deceived, although because of that, I ended up in this situation.
"...!"
I blocked an arrow that came from the right. Upon looking, I discovered the culprit, and it was General Antiope with her blond hair in a ponytail, waving in the wind as she jumped over the buildings. I already knew Antiope from the comics, but I never imagined meeting her this way.
"Tsk..." she clicked her tongue.
===
– Don't judge me, but I'd like to be stepped on by her.
– Don't be ridiculous; a sadistic milf who doesn't seem like a milf is.... Haa I wish to be tied by her~
– You're all degenerates!!
– Yuck!
Allen knew that many of his viewers had strange and vulgar fetishes, but they shouldn't be so unpleasant. Fortunately, MJ and Gwen started punishing viewers who were too unpleasant.
===
Antiope... the woman is a beauty with a military and warrior touch. She bears a great resemblance to Hippolyta, but instead of the noble and brave beauty of a warrior queen, Antiope gives off the vibe of a military general, a Waifu General... as a side note, I wonder if any characters from Akame ga Kill will come as sex dolls. Don't get me wrong; it's not for perverted reasons; I'm just curious, and many of those girls died very horribly.
Diana jumped on me, pulling me out of my thoughts. I used Bullet Time to dodge, and she landed on the ground, creating a crater.
"Diana, are you trying to kill me?" I asked with a surprised voice to the girl who kept chasing me.
"I'm sorry; I couldn't control my strength..." she continued smiling innocently, but her smile sent shivers down my spine. Indeed, a woman's jealousy is terrifying.
Now that I think about it, all the women I have a relationship with already knew about my history with other women. Perhaps that's why their jealousy was more controlled or nonexistent.
*Explosion*
Diana destroyed a building while trying to catch up with me. I whispered, "To start with, this is your fault!" I looked a bit angrily at Artemis, who was smelling my neck. She lifted her gaze, and her emerald eyes blinked at me. Then she tilted her head. While her ignorance is cute and makes it hard to stay mad, it's still the origin of this problem. "Why did you mistake me for a woman?"
Artemis blushed and averted her gaze. "I had never seen a man... I didn't know what you were... but I'm not foolish; I know what a man is, but I never thought they would be so... perfect."
===
– Bah, don't use Allen as a standard, or you might be disappointed!
– If my husband were like Allen, I wouldn't have left him for cheating on me, hahaha.
– Miss Artemis, men are unpleasant, but Allen is different uwu.
Ruby - Yes, yes, it's fine... but can you stop hugging Allen for five minutes?!!!
Nikky - Hahaha, you took your time!~ But endure it, Ruby, the captain is quite a womanizer~
Gwen – ... Don't worry... he'll get what he deserves when the time comes....
Ruby and Nikky – ...
===
Her words made sense, but the girl kept rubbing her face against mine, which undermined her credibility. Although I admit she's a bit cute.
"Hehe," she began drooling while laughing foolishly... okay, that's no longer cute.
I could feel the jealousy from the system screen. I need to stop this before angering my girlfriends even more.
"Still, are you not exaggerating, Diana?" Artemis looked behind me toward Diana, who was causing destruction as she pursued us.
"Diana, you used to say that you didn't understand the reason for isolating us from the world and that while there are bad men, they shouldn't all be like that!!..."
"You shameless bitch!, say all that without being in Allen's arms!!" Diana got furious and shifted her attention to Artemis.
As Artemis was about to speak, she gave me a smile and used her finger on my lips. "Let me handle her; you should run from Paradise Islands."
"Well, that's my intention, but... what will happen to you if you help me?"
Although I just met her, using her as a sacrifice doesn't sit well with me, especially if she didn't do anything to harm me.
"Aww," Artemis kissed my cheek. "Don't worry, dear; at most, they'll lock me up for a century or two..."
"..." I was speechless at her kiss and attitude. Why is this happening to me?! Besides, I forgot that the Amazons are technically immortal.
But even being immortal, a century locked up is torture. While I hesitated, she got out of my arms on her own and pulled out a bow to shoot at Diana.
"Bitch, I won't let you touch my man!" Artemis said, winking at me and running towards Diana.
Damn! I can see a dark aura surrounding Diana. She must have seen the kiss she gave me, and along with Artemis' words, Diana could fall to the dark side... joking aside, this wouldn't be the first time a DC superhero turns evil.
This is bad!
The Diana I knew in the Doomsday incident was a kind wife-like woman, not a yandere killing machine. I have to stop this, or I'll ruin my future.
"Not so fast, man!" the shout of a woman, along with the murderous edge of a sword, came from the front. In an instant, I stopped the sword with my arm covered in Haki armor, but Antiope pushed me through a building.
While Artemis held off Diana, she took the opportunity to attack me. I must admire her determination. Even if the situation became ridiculous between Diana, Artemis, and me, she remained silent like a predator waiting for her moment.
'I completely forgot about her!' Besides, this woman is not weak; in terms of strength, she should be above the current Diana.
"It won't be that easy to escape..." With that sentence, her strength increased, and she attacked me again. Her strength was absurd, like facing Hulk.
God; the existence of these entities is represented in many stories in different ways, sometimes as conceptual as an invisible force or a manifestation of something, and sometimes as mundane as a human but stronger.
One thing is for sure, gods cannot be taken lightly in the DC universe, especially in comics, where just one excuse is enough to escalate things. Fortunately, at this moment, she was just a woman with divine blood and ridiculously strong against me.
I used my own strength to push Antiope away, she only recoiled a bit while looking at me in amazement. My strength is a combination of the old Shirohige's strength and Sukuna's immense power.
Antiope observed me for a moment. "You're strong for a human... I don't feel a divine aura or profane powers... what are you?"
"It's hard to explain."
The woman had a crushing presence, worthy of a warrior who had fought for many centuries. However, I had to try one last time.
"Is there a chance we could talk about this?" I asked while dusting myself off but I didn't expect a positive response.
"No! You've corrupted two of our most talented Amazons, and you have to pay with your life!"
Corrupted?... Well, it's regrettable that I can't deny it completely. I taught Diana many things about men and women, and I undressed in front of Artemis.
"No, thanks; I'm allergic to dying!" I went on guard once again as Crown Clown turned into a shirt.
An important detail, I realized just recently that the redhead girl was Red Hood, Artemis. Damn! More problems with women.
"Tell me one thing: what will happen if I defeat you? Will you surrender?" I asked, perhaps there's a way to end this like two respectful warriors with a friendly skill exchange.
"You should kill me to beat me!"
As expected, the woman in front of me is an Amazon to the core. She will die before becoming a burden to her people; she will choose death before being humiliated.
As someone living in modern times, it feels even more incredible to see people with this kind of mentality, noble and dignified in the face of death.
This is something I can respect...
*Heartbeat*
My heart beats with a slight excitement. Since my confrontation with Yuri, I realized that I hadn't fought with someone like him, only with monsters and a traumatized villain.
Ah... it's strange... I want to defeat this woman... make her admit defeat to me, stand above her...
*End of POV*
...
Allen had acquired enormous problems along with his powers, making him constantly stressed as he tried to survive and protect his loved ones.
But now, it's different; he can escape at any time or, in the worst case, defeat all the Amazons using all the power he has.
Still, something inside him whispered that he needed to defeat this woman.
Allen used Clown Saber, but not as he usually does; he made it thinner, like a more orthodox sword.
"...?!" Antiope opened her eyes at Allen's actions.before it wasn't that she didn't realize he didn't want to fight, however, her reasoning and thoughts could only think that it was an act done by Allen to deceive her.
Allen didn't lie, in fact, he usually doesn't lie in serious situations, he did not want to fight but now Allen grabbed his sword and looked at Antiope with a clear intention to fight.
Antiope wasn't intimidated and firmly gripped her sword; the movements were very smooth, almost like a choreography. Allen swung his sword diagonally from bottom to top.
Antiope did the same with a downward motion.
The clash of metal resonated everywhere as Antiope's eyes locked onto Allen and vice versa.
She felt it, as a warrior; the language of weapons was more sincere than any words. Antiope began her counter-attack with a stab to Allen's abdomen, but he easily blocked it.
'Again...' thought the woman as her eyes stayed on Allen. It was a conversation without words between them, something that could only be achieved when two warriors respected each other.
Allen smiled slightly as he continued to attack. 'I don't consider myself a warrior, not even an adventurer. I don't go through life looking for fights with strong people or anything like that. However, it's nice to fight with such an opponent...'
Allen enjoyed his fight against Yuri not because the bear was strong, not because the bear had incredible power, simply because he was someone he could respect.
But was it just that?
Antiope started to enjoy their fight so much that she didn't realize when a smile appeared on her face; this is something she would never show to a man.
'Wow, you're very beautiful when you smile...'
Allen didn't say it with words, but his compliments reached the woman, who blushed. No one knew if this had happened before because they only knew the goddess of battle, Antiope.
'Bastard.'
Hippolyta would open her mouth in surprise; her good sister seemed to be flirting with a man at this moment.
