"…"

[Lust system: This…]

Any normal person might have noticed that this woman was a really tough nut to crack, someone who was not interested in anyone sexually and doesn't even feel slightly curious or interested.

There's also the fact that she only had three innate traits.

However Ray whose mind worked differently was smiling.

'She's a complete blank canvas. I can paint whatever I want…'

From Ray's perspective, Ambrosia had never tried any kind of sexual act before, and if he tried he could make her develop her interest in the direction he wanted.

'However this has to wait at least after my coronation!'

The next day was extremely important for him. He couldn't fool around with her at the moment. He swore to complete the lust system quest that he hid later on.

"Well, as you have guessed, I have a request."

Ambrosia shook her head and sighed.

"I knew it. So? What is it this time?"

"You see… I think someone might try to launch an attack at the palace tomorrow…"

He intentionally didn't mention anyone would launch an attack on him, but mentioned the palace because if he did then Ambrosia would start getting wild the next day and he couldn't convince her anymore.

"And how do you know this?"

"Hmmm… there are too many suspicious things going on…"

And with that he made up a story and explained it to his aunt.

According to his story, he told her that some people from within the palace were dissatisfied with him for capturing the corrupt nobles before and secretly planned to create a commotion on the coronation ceremony.

Ambrosia listened intently and finally she nodded.

"And you thought all this might happen because the finance minister asked for five extra invitations?"

"You can say that."

"At least find better reasons if you want to make others believe things…"

"But you will believe me either way."

Ray shrugged and Ambrosia couldn't help but feel completely read.

Even if it was a made up story, she would make no compromises when it came to their safety.

"So what do you want me to do? Increase the surveillance or your guards?"

"No. Just carve a magic circle for a barrier that would protect the nobles."

"Oh? Not yourself?"

"Don't need one. And I think you know why I am asking you to do this."

"Obviously. To stop the commotion from growing and increase your positive image as a selfless king."

Ray didn't need to reply. Working with intelligent people really refreshed him.

"Alright. I'll get it done."

With a smile that said "thank you" he went ahead and hugged his aunt.

"Thank you."

Ambrosia didn't know where it came from but the hug instantly refreshed her and lightened her mood.

Ray on the other hand kept hugging her tightly, feeling her breasts press against his chest as they radiated warmth.

After a few seconds of hugging, they separated and prepared to leave.

"Ray."

Suddenly Ambrosia called him back.

Turning back he could see her flashing a smile at him.

"Thank you for cheering me up. And stay safe."

'Cheering you up? I thought it was me getting cheered up!'

"You too!"

With that, he left the scene and went back to his room.

However the moment he entered his room, everything went black.

His surroundings disappeared and he was surrounded by black mist all around.

'This!'

Ray recognized this scene in an instant and knowing what was about to happen, he instantly swapped his pride system for the divine ranked Seven Sins System.

Within moments the black mist all around started approaching him and Ray felt his SSS ranked mind shake slightly.

However, it was enough to resist the mist.

Not being able to peer into his mind, the mist changed its approach and tried to glimpse into his system.

However…

[System Backlash (Divine) activated]

*Swoosh*

Like a heavy storm, the mist all around him was sweeped away and he was once again standing in his room like nothing happened.

Ray stood there with an expressionless face.

'That was a spell…'

Indeed it was a spell, and a terrifying one at that. It could choose a target and read its past or future depending on the rank of the skill.

And he knew the only person who could cast this spell.

East Duchess, Valindra Tiafel.

Even though he knew who it was, he wasn't really angry at this.

After all…

'I was expecting this.'

The moment he had anyhow mentioned 'the three' out of nowhere, he expected her to react somehow.

Instead of feeling angry at the duchess he was quite satisfied and happy.

His System Backlash had definitely hurt her somewhat. Even though she was extremely strong, his system was divine ranked, and the backlash from that spell was no joke.

However that didn't really concern him.

What made him happy was that now he had a topic to talk with the Duchess, and if he could somehow cook up a story and get her on his side easily, it would immensely help him.

But if that didn't work, he was determined to use force.

In the short term, this woman was the biggest variable that could exist.

She was extremely unpredictable. He had to somehow control her.

****************************************************

In the East, a woman who was 'sleeping' on a bed suddenly coughed up blood as she got up hastily.

Valindra slowly got up as she swiped her mouth clean and looked at her hand which was stained slightly red with the fresh blood.

She appeared calm and had no visible emotions however her mind was burning with curiosity.

'How could he escape that spell? How could he make me bleed?'

And the more she thought about it the more she felt this power was similar to someone she knew before.

'He could injure others from a distance without even being present...'

As she walked across the dark room, the image of a certain red haired man passed her thoughts.

'I have to know more about him... Ray Celestia... you are more than what you appear...'

Ray had accomplished his goal, but he didnt know that this curiosity would soon turn into obsession and become something he would never expect. Not even with his insight.
