I'm here to save the world, what are you doing?

The Grand Duke patted the empty seat next to him, and as soon as the maid sat down, he immediately put his arm around her slender waist.

"My sweetheart, tell me, what did Lucius do today?"

Leila's gift is [Universal Vision], which brings her powerful surveillance and insight capabilities. Coupled with her ninth-level rank, as long as she is willing, the entire Weiss City and its radius of 100 miles will be within her field of vision.

"That kid has been locked up in his room ever since he got the academy badge. As for what he did in his room... you know, I always respect children's privacy."

"I only know that he felt much better after he came out, and he even went to your collection room and took out an extraordinary item."

Grand Duke Glade: ???

No, this guy started to steal my gold coins so early?

"What did he take?"

"The third-level magic tool 'Nightmare' has the sole function of creating custom illusions for oneself, training one's mental strength and willpower."

"Hmm... I see."

The Grand Duke nodded, and after a moment's silence, he spoke:

"Lucius will definitely go deep into the Twilight Forest this time. That kid likes to throw his brain aside when he gets into a fight. We'll have to assign a skilled shadow guard to keep an eye on him."

"As for Lucius's sudden awakening gift..."

The Grand Duke looked up at the ceiling, exhaled a long breath, and his eyes became inexplicably deep:

"I will make my own decision."

6-Are you trying to scam me here?

"Come money? Come? Come money? Come..."

Lucius was in a very good mood as he rode his red-maned horse freely on the road.

Although he became the offspring of an evil god due to force majeure, at least he could return to the path of a mage. After weighing the risks and rewards, Lucius did not feel that he had lost out.

If it weren't for "Domination" appointing the generals, Lucius might still be stuck in the room thinking about the warrior route. Of course, there's nothing wrong with the physical flow, but with the blessing of magic, there's even more room for him!

The second-level magical beast, the Red Flame Horse under his crotch, was as fast as Palu's Cloud Sea Deer. It only took half a day to get from Weiss to the Twilight Forest, but Lucius still felt it was not fast enough.

Alas, I heard that there is a tribe of centaurs in the neighboring Orc Kingdom. Those creatures run much faster than Warcraft, and the stronger they are, the faster they are. They are really the best companions for traveling.

The beautiful horse girls are responsible for running around, and you only need to lean on their backs and rub the ears on their heads, or bury your head in the flying hair and necks to smell the girls' fragrance, and enjoy the whole way to your destination.

Just thinking about that scene makes me feel cool. I wonder if the black market merchants in the East can find a way to get one here...

"Snapped!"

Lucius suddenly slapped himself in the face, feeling deeply ashamed for having such a dirty thought.

Damn Lucius, when did you become corrupted by the decadent spirit of the aristocracy?

Buy a horse girl?

Think carefully about the education you received in your previous life. Does it allow you to do such a thing?

It would be better to wait until you get back and "accidentally" mention it to Lao Deng. As for what Lao Deng will do after hearing it, it is none of the business of the pure and innocent Lucius.

Anyway, the image of Grand Duke Glade as a genuine dog aristocrat is already deeply rooted, so this little reputation doesn't matter.

Not only did Lao Deng suffer, but he also had to bear the blame.

Alas, it’s so hard to be a good person.

【? ? ? 】

[I finally understand why people always say hypocrites are a hundred times more disgusting than real assholes.]

"That's a bad word."

Lucius's smug smile now had some of his father's flavor:

"Real bastards just do whatever bad things they want, but we hypocrites have to think about so much more."

"It's a real challenge to do something bad without damaging your reputation."

"Besides, what's wrong with liking Uma Musume? My XP is quite extensive."

"Actually, my life goal is to complete the Handbook for Evaluating Different World and Different Race Girls."

"How can a sixteen-year-old like you have such a mind full of junk? Can't you have a slightly more normal ideal?"

"Wu~Brother Lu is a dragon! Provoke him!"

"Since you're a dragon, what's wrong with being lustful?"

Lucius raised his arms high as if he had gone mad and shouted loudly.

[…I’m convinced.]

He joked with the system along the way and unknowingly reached the outskirts of the Twilight Forest. He could already see scattered adventurers shouting and looking for their teammates. Lucius didn't even look at them and rushed straight into the forest.

At this moment, the desire to fight in Lucius' heart is surging, rapidly increasing, and vigorously increasing!

Kill kill kill kill kill!

For two years, Lucius could only fight fiercely with fourth-level monsters on the outskirts of the forest. Challenging higher-level monsters was dangerous at first, but his growing combat experience made him more and more comfortable.

Lucius was already bored with the fourth-level monsters, but he couldn't do anything about the fifth-level monsters in the inner circle of the forest.

Bi Yang's fifth-level monsters are not only gifted with magic, but also have wisdom that is not inferior to humans. This group of despicable and insidious guys will never give you a chance to fight in close combat, but will only use magic to kite you.

But now the offense and defense have changed. After Lucius's rank was raised, the fifth-level monsters could no longer escape from his pursuit.

Alas, these useless people have lost their wildness. I will make them feel the real wildness.

Lucius couldn't wait to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the monster!

Fight! (Close-up of crotch with clear meaning)

Three hours later—

It was already dusk, the setting sun in the sky was blood-red, and the afterglow was sprinkled on the boundless forest. The golden light was intertwined with the deep green. The light passed through the treetops and was projected on the ground in a mottled manner. The grass and trees seemed to be coated with a layer of gold.

The picture is so beautiful, but when the focus turns to Lucius, it is somewhat inappropriate for children.

"Ha, ha...hiss..."

"Hahahaha! Fighting is awesome!"

Lucius gasped, then put his hands on his hips and laughed wildly towards the sky.

His clothes had long been lost in the battle, and Lucius was left with only a pair of tattered trousers. His young but already well-defined body was exposed to the air.

The fair body and handsome face were now covered with dust and blood, and undried blood was dripping down the body, some from the monster and some from Lucius himself.

Looking up, one could see two hideous wounds on Lucius' chest and back, with flesh and blood spilling out and bones exposed, but they were healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In front of him was the corpse of a huge bear-like monster. Even though it was lying in a pool of blood, it was still nearly one meter taller than the standing Lucius.

A fifth-level, third-stage magical beast, the Giant Rock Bear.

This was the third fifth-level monster Lucius had hunted today. It had high attack and strong defense, was huge in size, and had immense strength. It was covered in rock and earth armor and had innate magic similar to Rockfall. It was also cunning and sly, knowing how to show weakness to the enemy before launching an attack.

But it still died. Lucius's heavy fist penetrated its skin and flesh, shocking its internal organs and causing it great torture. Of course, this little pain was not enough to bring down a fifth-level monster.

Its real fatal wound was in its chest. Lucius pierced its flesh with his fingers, tearing off strips of skin and fat, and finally breaking its sternum and crushing its heart. When the heart exploded, the blood spurted out due to the blood pressure, covering Lucius's head and face.

"It's truly delightful, Giant Rock Bear. I guess... never mind. I forgot about it in a flash."

After feeling his remaining strength and looking up at the sky, Lucius decided to make a fire on the spot and start his wilderness survival tonight.

1㈡1㈨

After working for a while, he was just about to throw a fireball at the pile of firewood when he felt a slight vibration under his feet and raised his head in confusion.

A few dozen meters away, a dusty, gray-haired girl was running towards him, and about seven or eight meters behind her was a tiger-like monster chasing her relentlessly.

However, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the monster was not unable to catch up with the girl, it was just enjoying the pleasure of playing with its prey like a cat catching a mouse.

Seven or eight meters is just the distance of a leap. The moment it gets tired of playing is the day the girl dies.

"Storm Tiger? It's similar to the Giant Rock Bear, but that gray-haired girl..."

Lucius narrowed his eyes slightly. "You dare to go this deep into here at the third stage, third level? How is this different from seeking death?"

Entering the inner circle of the Twilight Forest at a mere level three is a recipe for death.

You are a bronze player. If you come to play high-quality games against us gold masters and get beaten, isn't it your own fault?

The girl was getting closer and closer to Lucius, and Lucius' figure appeared in her sight. She subconsciously wanted to ask Lucius for help, but the moment she saw his face, she lost her mind for a moment, and accidentally tripped over the protruding tree roots under her feet. Finally, she fell in front of Lucius and fainted.

Lucius:? ? ?

Are you trying to scam me here?

Lucius usually chooses to ignore such people who like to commit suicide, but this time he is willing to make an exception for the girl.

It wasn't that he wanted to play the hero-saving-the-beauty game, but waves of heat were surging in his palms, that was "dominance" expressing its desire to him -

The [Gift] possessed by the girl before him was worthy of being controlled.

Storm Tiger had stopped and was observing Lucius with a vigilant attitude. The blood on Lucius's body and the corpse of the giant rock bear behind him made Storm Tiger feel afraid.

It had already begun to retreat a little, but Lucius had no intention of letting it go:

"Hmph, want to run away?"

Lucius pinched his finger bones, and his bones crackled. His golden pupils were as bright as if burning. If you look closely, you can find that his eyes have become vertical pupils - these are the eyes of a dragon.

Ordinary species will naturally feel fear towards superior species. The Storm Tiger had already intended to retreat, and now its determination to escape was even more resolute.

But before it turned around, Lucius rushed over and hit the tiger's face hard with his hardest elbow joint.

Man! What can I say?

A wild, shocking elbow!

PS: Please vote!

Kids, there's actually an outline this time.

7-Oh my god, this frame is so cool!

"Do it? Now? Right here?"

Lucius supported his chin with one hand, sat on the body of Storm Tiger and looked down at the girl who was still unconscious on the ground with a condescending attitude.

Her long gray hair became messy from running, and her little face was still cute and pretty even though it was covered with dust.

Out of a full ten points, Lucius could score nine, but when he looked down a little, his eyes were immediately filled with pity.

If Lucius hadn't learned from Lao Deng the little trick of distinguishing between men and women at a glance, he would have almost thought that the person lying on the ground was a little boy.

I'm broke, sister.

Alas, it feels like the type that a virgin high school student would like. Overall, I'd barely give it an eight. It's dragged down by the front armor. The judges prefer a bigger one.

"Hey, buddy, how did you even get on this review? And you're judging based entirely on personal preference, there's no fairness at all..."

"No, what I mean is, shouldn't you take advantage of her unconsciousness and use your power over her?"

[Or would you rather wait until she wakes up and then play with her, watching her struggle and fall into despair? What a pervert.]

"No, this legendary sleep-resistant king who can be unconscious for more than half an hour after a fall is not worth toying with at all."

Lucius had a troubled expression on his face. It was the first time he had seen someone knock himself unconscious with a somersault.

"I'm just thinking about whether to share her gift or plunder it directly."

Even though the girl's dress was tattered and the white over-the-knee socks wrapped around her slender legs were badly damaged, Lucius could still tell that these were high-end goods that only a noble lady from an earl's family could afford.

As for plundering, it was very simple. It was just a matter of robbing first and then killing, and then rushing away under the cover of night. Even though nobles generally had means to monitor the life status of family members, they would have already slipped away by the time they found this place.
