Chapter 53: There Was No Turning Back Now
"Truly remarkable internal information, with in-depth content, multiple reviews, and illustrated with both words and pictures, making it easily understandable at first glance."
After sitting in the bathtub for two hours, Loria wearily closed the book.
Although she had "given" a lot here.
But in return, her rewards were far more valuable than what she had given.
Two hours of joy in a row was already worth it. After finishing the book given by Vita, she even got 9 copies of the Monster Girl's Guide!
If it hadn't already exceeded the boost limit of the Monster Girl's Boots, and she didn't want to waste too much precious time, Miss Knight would definitely continue to delve deeper and explore further.
After reading a few more evaluations of the geishas from different races, the next time she battled these monster girls, she would be able to win with greater ease.
"Let's look again tomorrow. Even though I'm feeling really well, looking at it too much can still harm me in the end."
Loria stood up from the bathtub.
Splash!
She opened the stopper and let the water out, then she went under the faucet to rinse herself off after it was empty.
After she had destroyed all the incriminating evidence, she returned to her bedroom with a sigh of relief. She didn't want the guildmaster to mistakenly think she was a weirdo!
It was the middle of the night.
The passionate girl, with her blood still boiling, lay on the bed and opened the emulator.
A new day dawned, and the opportunity for a free simulation had refreshed once again.
"This time, launching a fierce attack targeting Felix, we must make him reveal his weakness!"
After all, Loria wasn't a complete fool. Before the official mission, she devised a somewhat feasible plan.
From her perspective, it seemed almost impossible to convince Felix, who had been deprived of happiness multiple times, with love and justice.
It wasn't that this path couldn't be taken, but the key lay in the fact that she was the one who had to do it.
"I'm even younger than Felix. If I go and tell him this, it would be really strange if he could understand."
And her talent lies in being stubborn, not in engaging in verbal debates with others.
Loria, a village woman, would never dare to compare her eloquence to others.
Her real power was never persuasion, but the ability to lull people to bed.
But dealing with Felix, it was clear that the lullaby approach wouldn't work.
"Then let's go deceive and launch a surprise attack!"
Loria discovered that there were some similarities between her background and Felix's. She took this as an opportunity to approach Felix, using it as an excuse, and asked him to introduce her to those mysterious figures behind the scenes.
"You have no parents, and I have no parents. Shouldn't we be a group together?"
"Let me join you too, I also want the world to feel pain."
"When my supreme skills are perfected, I will be able to unleash the era of great floods and reshape the world!"
Who can compare to I, Water Goddess Loria?
Loria nodded her head.
With that being said, the momentum seemed sufficient.
As for whether it will succeed or not, let's leave it to fate.
If she couldn't defeat Felix, she would have to continue lurking near the water spirit girls and seek an opportunity to join the secret organization.
Of course, Loria didn't truly want to surrender, even though she was indeed quite skilled at it.
But now, wasn't this just pretending for the future?
Unless absolutely necessary, she still wanted to have a good fight with the mysterious puppeteer behind the scenes. Only if she couldn't defeat them would she consider running away and joining this organization.
I also had a bit of a temper, please don't mistake me for a succubus, you jerk!
[The Life Simulator has been activated]
[Day 1: Creek Town was still bustling today. Guildmaster Adeline promoted you to be her secretary. Finding a free moment, you called Felix out.]
[You straightforwardly told Felix that you already knew his secret. To your surprise, Felix's face showed signs of panic, despite his quick attempt to hide it. But it was in vain.]
"Eh?"
Loria was bewildered.
Feeling flustered?
Could it be? Could it be? Is this all the mental fortitude you have?
Looking at it this way, you are even worse than me. I am the kind of person who can calmly say that I don't like promiscuous women, without blushing or skipping a beat!
"Could it be a trap? They deliberately created a flaw in order to lure me into it."
Miss Loria suddenly became clever.
She continued to look down.
[You cornered Felix against the wall, and menacingly threatened him with a smirk, saying, "Felix, you wouldn't want your secret to be revealed, would you?"]
[Felix's face turned pale and he indicated that he couldn't understand what you were saying. You quickly changed your tone to reassure him, letting him know there was no need to panic because you were on the same team.]
"A group of them?"
"That's for sure, after all we have a similar past, ah."
As a mere orphan, I, Loria, also have that identity!
"I understand how you feel, and I know what you want to do now. It's amazing that not only do we share the same background, but we also have the same dreams."
"Let me join you, let's unite, together we, as people of great excellence, can surely overcome any obstacles and create a bright future that we have always dreamed of!"
Raises both arms high
[Felix continued to express that he didn't understand what you were saying, but you simply didn't believe his nonsense.]
"Who would believe such words?"
She laughed joyfully.
You say you can't understand what I'm saying, isn't that as fake as me saying I'm a succubus?
Loria remained calm, for she had a secret weapon-
Call your parents!
[You continue to threaten Felix, "If you keep pretending to be ignorant, then I will have no choice but to summon the guildmaster!"]
The effect of this move turned out to be better than expected.
[After hearing what you said, Felix suddenly calmed down. It seemed like he gave up struggling. He said that since you insisted, you should be mentally prepared. After work, he would take you to meet them.]
[You agreed and kept a close eye on Felix to prevent any tricks.]
[After work, you and Felix secretly went to Felix's childhood home.]
[Before officially starting the mission, Felix repeatedly warned you. He said that this task was very dangerous, and once you joined, there would be no turning back. But for now, there was still a chance to turn back.]
"This is the classic formula of RPG games, right?"
Once the crucial plot point is reached, the game would allow the player to make choices.
If you move forward, you will be reminded that there is no turning back.
If you step back, you can continue wandering around.
Since they have all come this far, Loria, of course, could not retreat.
[You urged him eagerly and kept a watchful eye on the surroundings, to prevent anyone from suddenly appearing.]
[Felix sighed helplessly. He asked you to wait for him a moment and then walked into the kitchen.]
The crucial moment had arrived.
Loria's heart started to beat rapidly.
Next, she only hoped that the mastermind behind the scenes could give her a chance to speak, instead of immediately killing her.
Based on the experiences of the previous simulations, it wouldn't take long for the guildmaster to come here and find her. If the timing was perfect, it could potentially expose these masterminds to all the people of Creek Town in one fell swoop.
By that time, even if there were people in Claren City who didn't like them, they would have to send people to besiege them.
After all, the masterminds wanted to destroy Creek Town, which would shake the rule of the empire. This was something that could not be tolerated under any circumstances.
Come along.
Let me see who that shadowy figure lurking around me and the guildmaster really is!
[You waited for several minutes, until finally, Felix emerged from the kitchen and invited you to join him inside.]
[You cautiously entered the kitchen and saw that the stove had been lifted, revealing a small girl sitting inside, approximately 1.2 meters in height.]
"???"
Is the mastermind behind the scenes actually a small girl who is approximately 1.2 meters tall?
Loria was completely stunned.
