Chapter 25 25. Love Point Gains
"I can't tell you much about everything, but I'm going to be going to the capital and joining The Sanctuary. Naturally, as the leader of the revolutionary army I can't take a big force with me, but at the same time it's impossible to stay in the capital without having a force to do something for me." Said Lucius
"Although we have forces in the capital, I can't use any of them. The capital is the home ground of the empire and no matter how secret we try to be, using the revolutionary forces could leave some trails or at least make people investigating seem very suspicious."
This was a vital detail.
Going to The Sanctuary, Lucius would inevitably get involved with the heroines and a lot of them were of extremely high standing.
For that, the people around them would inevitably investigate Lucius's traces and if he used any force that the revolutionary army had entrenched in the capital, it could be catastrophic.
In addition to this, a few of the heroines were terrifyingly productive when it came to things like investigating the protagonist. If he dared to use the revolutionary forces, then they would easily catch in that something was wrong.
"Reina, what I'm going to need to do is enter the capital and take over some small gangs to form a faction for me. It doesn't need to be something too big, just a faction large enough that it would be convenient for me to do a few larger scale things without too much hassle. Besides, I won't treat you too badly either. I will help you get stronger."
As soon as Reina heard this, her whole body felt hot.
Strength!
The Barbarian blood inside her body was boiling. Just by her instincts alone, she had a great year inning for strength, and coupled with her life that had grown up front the very bottom her tearing for strength was even more intense.
"You lack systematic training and teaching, yet even with this you still managed to reach 3rd class fighter of your talent and bloodline alone. Within a few months I'm sure you could break into the rentals of 2nd class fighter even without my help. But with my help, reaching the ranks of 1st class fighter would be easy for you. Even ranks such as Master Fighter are not out of reach as long as you work hard."
Now Reina could barely contain the excitement on her face.
Lucius knew not only how to bring her immense pleasure, but was even promising to greatly increase her strength. Even though she chose to give him her body out of desperation. The more she looked at it, the more she thought that her choice was not bad at all.
But before Reina could get too excited, Lucius's next words came down on her like a bucket of cold water
"But this doesn't come without a cost."
"Right now, I'm not asking you to be my woman. I'm not even asking you to serve the revolutionary army. What I'm asking you is to be loyal to me and me alone."
As Lucius spoke, an imposing aura that made Reina soon understand the weight of his words radiated from Lucius's body.
"So miss Reina, the choice is all yours. Are you willing to serve me?" Asked Lucius
"I am willing!" Replied Reina without much hesitation.
As if confirming Reina's decision, Lucius heard a notification go off in his head
Favorability+ 300
Seeing this, Lucius couldn't help but smile.
Others may not know when to trust someone's words, but at least with the help of the system, he wouldn't be easily deceived.
Thinking like this, Lucius took a quick look at Reina's status panel
Heroine: Reina
Age: 27
Race: Half-barbarian
Affiliation: Revolutionary Army
Strength: 18
Agility: 14
Stamina: 17
Mana: 13
Will: 15
Talents & Traits:
Barbaric Strength(Passive effect/ bloodline ability)
Rage!(Active/ bloodline ability)
Axe Master (Passive effect)
Scheming
Hot blooded
Favorability: 40 (like)
Last time he saw her status panel, her favorability was at -300 compared to that reaching 40 was still a mind boggling jump.
But from the status panel, he could still see that Reina's scheming mouth shouldn't be completely trusted.
She was spouting sweet words saying she was his woman and in love, but the favorability was only 40 she wasn't truly in love.
In truth, this much wasn't really a problem.
Her favorability had reached the point at which it was highly unlikely for her to betray him. Besides, even if she betrayed him, who would she go to? The Demons? The Empire?
Strictly speaking, she had already betrayed both forces already so she could never join smoothly.
In addition to this, they had really only spent one night together.
Although it was an extremely amazing night for her, it was still not enough to turn her into a love fool.
Reina wasn't some naive innocent girl that hadn't experienced the world.
She was a bandit that ran amongst the lowest rungs of society and had seen the ugliness the world had to offer.
To get her to truly fall in love it would take more than just food, dick and some sweet words. Some time to truly cultivate some feelings was needed.
Still, Lucius was still a bit dissatisfied and lightly pinched her nipples causing her to moan out again.
Besides increasing Reina's favorability with him was only one gain he got yesterday his true gain would have to always be the ridiculous increase in his love points.
Throughout the entire experience, his love points were constantly soaring.
It goes to show that sec was definitely one of the best ways to increase live points.
Unfortunately, after he had sex with Reina the first time, the next few times he did it, his gain of love points dropped significantly
