I have to hypnotize you, Aura!

What should we say in response to negative temptations?

Hurry up and get the hell out of here!

Damn it, hurry up and tempt me!

Looking at this group of slutty women, Fingel couldn't help but get an erection.

The fist is hard!

Alice has mild doubts about you.

"Resisting temptation?"

Alice looked at Fingel with a puzzled expression. Before she could think, Fingel pulled her to the stall.

"Yes! The first test to resist temptation is delicious food!"

Fingel rudely shoved aside the guy who was watching the movie up close, and then grabbed a gold coin and threw it at the boss's face.

"Who the hell are you... Ah! What a handsome young man!"

The middle-aged boss, who was about to lose his temper, immediately softened his tone upon seeing the gold coins.

"Ahem, young man, how much do you want? I have 100 Eris per serving, but I'm a little short on change for 10,000 Eris..."

"Huh? Give me one serving, let this little brat eat as much as she wants! Keep the change if she can't finish it!"

Fingel waved his hand dismissively, then leaned close to his boss's ear and began winking.

"Boss, what do these girls do?"

The boss immediately understood, and he coughed twice.

"They are all legitimate adventurers... I just asked them to help me buy some ice cream."

"However, several of them are single. If you'd like to get to know them..."

Upon hearing this, Fingel gasped... and grabbed a handful of gold coins, stuffing them into the shopkeeper's hand.

Alice has mild doubts about you.

What is this person doing?

"Um... Mr. Fen, are you saying that resisting temptation means eating ice cream?"

Alice looked at Fingel speechlessly, completely baffled as to what this kidnapper was up to.

He suddenly started saying random things, and now he's whispering to the ice cream shop owner.

"Hmm? I think you don't understand at all?"

Upon hearing the little girl's complaint, Fingel immediately looked at Alice seriously, his expression reminiscent of a sea tiger.

"Some people would cut themselves open, kill and commit arson, and even pull out their intestines to use as jump ropes just for ice cream!"

As he spoke, his expression became nostalgic, as if he were recalling a glorious past.

"Your mind will be clouded, you will succumb to temptation, and you may even attract powerful enemies as a result, and you might just die!"

"Therefore, to avoid this dangerous situation from happening again, you must be exposed to temptation multiple times to develop resistance to it!"

The hot female adventurer looked at Fingel, pursed her lips, and even boldly winked, which made him start thinking about what kind of party to throw that night.

According to the boss, the female adventurers are very open-minded and quite likely to be eaten.

Alice has mild doubts about you.

? ?

I have absolutely no idea what Mr. Fen is talking about.

What should I say?

Alice was unaware of this and simply took the ice cream from the shopkeeper.

'Should I eat it? But Kurea said I shouldn't eat this kind of food at my age... but...'

She actually started to care about what Fingel said, even though she thought he was talking complete nonsense. But... she thought it was okay to be a little willful, right?

She really wanted to eat it.

Alice looked at the children happily eating ice cream not far away, her eyes sparkling with envy.

If I return to the palace in the future, I don't know how long I'll have to wait to eat ice cream!

so....

She looked at the ice cream in her hand, made up her mind, and stuck out her little tongue to gently lick it.

"Good ice!"

Delicious!

Alice's eyes narrowed as she smiled.

Chapter Seven: The First Time

[The non-existent mind-control system is activated!]

[Due to the interference of an unknown force, it has been transformed into an affinity system.]

Alice Belzegu

[According to available information: She is the first princess of the Belzerg royal family, a Holy Sword Resonator, and holds a prestigious position.]

[According to the information: Although she was somewhat afraid of the man who had tied her up, she was very happy because of it, and had a lot of fun in the city.]

[Favorability: 20%]

........

Completely unaware that a certain girl had developed feelings for him, Fingel was excitedly greeting the female adventurers and making an appointment with one of the beautiful girls to meet at the tavern after get off work.

It's very simple, it's a monthly disposable device.

After succeeding, a cheerful Fingel came over to continue watching the child, only to find the little girl elegantly licking her ice cream, like a cat drinking water.

Her big eyes sparkled like sky-blue gems, and the corners of her eyes curved, making her look very happy.

'hehe. ’

'She's just a little girl, after all.'

Fingel glanced at the favorability rating stat... Huh? It's already 150? That's really strange.

'She seems quite happy.'

Alice breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Fingel return... She was a little nervous without the Holy Sword in her hand.

"Mr. Fen, what were you doing just now?"

Alice asked curiously.

...

This... I can't say, can I?

"It's just... a simple introduction."

Fingel, of course, couldn't say that he was using disposable sex services.

"Oh well."

Alice took two light licks, gazing at the bustling crowd, lost in thought.

Normally, children this age would be hiding what they're going to eat or whether they've finished their homework, but Alice is different; this little girl has very deep secrets hidden in her heart.

...

what.

They've arrived. Are these the royal children?

Although not as brutal as the struggles within the Eastern royal families, the responsibilities of being a queen were still extremely heavy. Even with an excellent education from a young age, the pressure still weighed on her like a mountain.

'Was what I doing really right? As a princess, I shouldn't be doing this.'

Alice stared blankly at the passing crowd. The bustling capital had everything: merchants coming and going, richly dressed nobles, hawkers calling out their wares, and citizens busy going to work...

It was very peaceful.

This is what she wanted to see.

I'm just... a little disappointed.

Alice saw several children running and playing across the street, their paper windmills spinning in circles.

Looks very happy.

...

"Tsk."

Fingel felt a headache coming on; he wasn't some kind of psychology expert—which was also why he didn't want to have children with Aura.

He can have fun as he pleases, but if he were to have a child, he would have to take on the responsibility. Fingel isn't the type to say, "My father is a chief, and the child is a gift from me." He's just joking around most of the time, but if they really had a child, wouldn't he have to take responsibility for the child?

His rare acts of kindness are directed towards pretty girls and children.

"Hey..."

Looking at Alice, whose eyes were filled with envy and joy, Fingel couldn't help but sigh.

Why are you so deep at such a young age? It makes me seem like I have no sense of the bigger picture.

"Well... being a princess must be boring, right? The higher the nobility, the more troublesome it is. The people below you don't dare to talk to you. They're all like mice, hiding their inner thoughts, afraid of causing any negative impact."

Fingel took the new ice cream from the shopkeeper and shoved it into Alice's hand.

"I want to tell you a principle: whatever you do, you must be focused!"

"Whether you're fighting or studying, you must immerse yourself in it—and the same goes for playing. If you're going to play, play happily! Go wherever you want, eat whatever you want!"

Alice has developed mild doubts about you.

“But… that’s not right. As royalty, I can’t do that. Everyone is still looking for me, and I can’t cause them trouble.”

Alice hesitated as she looked at the food in her hand. Theoretically, she should leave Fingel's side and seek protection from the guards. Fingel had also made it clear that he would not stop her if it was convenient for her. But she just couldn't bring herself to do it.

? ?

Don't be so angelic, okay?

Fingleton was speechless. What a joke! Is this really how you treat a nobleman? Please be a little more wicked, a little more scheming, and ruthlessly exploit the common people, letting them eat and drink their fill and enjoy their privileges!

You're making me, someone who lives like an aristocrat and indulges in debauchery and gambling, seem despicable, let alone someone who spends 2.3 million on glass bead earrings.

“You need to think this through. This might be one of the few times you have the freedom to move around as you please.” Fingel sighed. “I happen to be free anyway. I can play whatever you want with you for a bit. But when you’re playing, you should forget all that nonsense, you know?”

"When you're playing, unless the world ends, nothing should affect your mood, understand?"

Even if it's exam tomorrow and his roommates are frantically cramming their textbooks, Fingel can still calmly play a game—that's the kind of man he is.

What is this called? This is called courage and determination.

Such a negative view!

But...it feels...so interesting!
