Honkai: Star Rail: Marrying Acheron from the Start, Sharing the Authority of Nihility

After transmigrating into Honkai: Star Rail, Lin Shuang was forced by the System to confess her love to Acheron. Coming on too strong would get her killed, so she tried a different tack. "Acheron, could you help me with a little ceremony? Just go through the motions."

Acheron agreed.

They stepped over a fire pot, bowed to heaven and earth, drank from exchanged cups, and tied their hair together as a pledge. After the makeshift ceremony, a System notification appeared: Relationship: Married. Reward: One purple pull and a pair of matching rings.

Lin Shuang was dumbfounded. That actually worked?

Even more incredible, Acheron discovered that the ring could resist the erosion of Nihility, restoring her sense of taste and her memories. The way she looked at Lin Shuang changed from "I'll protect her while I'm at it" to "I don't want to let go."

During training, she would haul Lin Shuang into a mob of monsters, claiming it was practical experience. During breaks, though, she secretly took pictures of Lin Shuang's sword-swinging silhouette and her profile as she hummed.

"Once the Stellaron is dealt with, are you still leaving?"

"Didn't we agree to meet again on Penacony?"

Acheron didn't answer. She simply lowered her head and touched the ring on her left ring finger.

She didn't want to wait, and she didn't want to let go. Share the divine authority of Nihility? No, what she wanted to share was the rest of their lives.
