Chapter 165: 165.Seduced!



For a few seconds, everyone present was stunned into silence as they looked at Alice\'s cute, red, puffy face after all that shouting. Reina\'s face crumpled into a mess, and Lucius, hearing such words from the usually innocent Alice, had his jaw drop to the floor. Even the usually stoic Camilla had her jaw agape.

Dear God! What sort of nonsense reasoning was this? Amongst everyone here, maybe Alice was the only one who could come to such a silly conclusion. For the two women present, it was impossible to have such ridiculous thoughts. They had already easily fallen into Lucius\'s grasp and knew just how lustful and greedy that man could be. This wasn\'t some naive young man but a shameless playboy.

As for Lucius, not much needed to be said—you can deceive the world, but you can\'t deceive yourself. He knew himself best. In his heart, he was definitely not a good man. In his short stay in this world, he had already committed many crimes, and if he wanted to stand at the top, he would only commit countless more. His hands were destined to be stained with blood. How could he be a good person?

Earlier, it was said that Alice was naive, not stupid, but on second thought, maybe that was said too soon. At first, when he had suffered Alice\'s endless questions, Lucius was beginning to panic.

He was even considering whether to completely abandon Reina to satisfy Alice and escape her nagging. He didn\'t know how to get out of it if he was forced to make a decision between Alice and Reina. If it came to that, he would pick Alice and abandon Reina without hesitation.

Although it was a bit harsh, it was the obvious decision. One was the main heroine and arguably the main heroine of the story—the Saintess of Light with master-level talents in buffing and healing. The other was just a sub-heroine bandit you meet at the start of the story. Even the most important item, the [Amulet of the High King], had been taken by him.

Abandoning Reina was the obvious choice to make.

Of course, Lucius wasn\'t so callous. He wouldn\'t truly kick Reina to the curb and would just secretly meet up with her in the revolutionary army, but now it appeared that wouldn\'t even be the case. Alice\'s opinion hadn\'t changed at all, so there was no need for such drastic measures.

Alice\'s belief in the original Landon bordered on the levels of blind faith. Many times when creating outlandish and dangerous plans in the book, the other heroines would question and doubt Landon\'s ridiculous suggestions. After all, these were people\'s lives we were talking about.

Landon could often convince them to agree, but the only one who would instantly agree wholeheartedly, no matter how ridiculous it sounded, was Alice. It just goes to show that Alice\'s faith in the original novel was no joke.

Alice later made many friends and met all sorts of good people, but the faith she had in them could never rival that she had for the original protagonist Landon in the book. That just goes to show how influential the first meeting and subsequent fight with bandits were on Alice\'s character.

Now, that setting and feature that should have been exclusive to Landon was shamelessly robbed away by Lucius. At first, such levels of blind trust may seem odd, but if you look closely, it wasn\'t so strange. Alice was traveling out of her family home for the first time in her life, and for the first time, she had run into vicious bandits that killed and kidnapped women from everywhere.

For such a naive girl, sheltered and never having experienced any bad people, such a sight must be extremely shocking. It was the first time she realized that the evil people her mother and father had told her about—the villains in books and stories—actually existed in real life.

Lucius, whom she had just met, was handsome and fearless in the face of danger, not hesitating to risk his life. Such a person was no different from a hero out of a storybook.

The level of writing and plot twists hadn\'t reached the level of Lucius\'s previous past life. Because of this, how could the hero, Sectelet, be a villain?

Alice wasn\'t stupid; she was just coping! She was coping so hard that it started to affect her subconscious thinking, and she believed that her hero could never be some low-level villain.

As Lucius organized these facts, he seemed to have a moment of realization.

"Wait, hold on… maybe I can work with this…"

Putting on a look of pure shock, which wasn\'t too hard after hearing Alice\'s previous outburst, Lucius cautiously asked, "Alice… is this true? Am I really being seduced?"

Seeing Lucius acting like some innocent victim, Reina really wanted to curse out that shameless bastard\'s entire family line.

Alice didn\'t care about Reina\'s explanation and continued to explain her reasoning, telling him about her mother\'s words. Lucius played along expertly, constantly showing expressions of both shock and disbelief as time went on.

Seeing the changes on Lucius\'s face as she made her explanation, Alice secretly couldn\'t help but feel proud in her heart. \'Fortunately, I knew this information beforehand before that nasty old woman Reina could completely succeed in her plans!\'

She looked towards Reina and sneered, as if laughing at her for breaking apart her nefarious plans. Seeing Alice look at her this way, Reina wasn\'t even angry.

Would you be angry when you heard the crazed ramblings of someone from a mental hospital? Of course not! Reina\'s feelings were the same. For those words to be coming out of this poor girl\'s mouth, she could only be suffering from a mental illness.

Camilla, the only one not involved in the scene, could just hold her head. \'I… I am surrounded by idiots.\'
