Chapter 73 73. Perk Of Mother Heronie

[Ding! Congratulations host for successfully raiding Amara (Current: 355 Unhealthy Obsession)...

The rewards were being distributed...

Congratulations to the host for getting "Beast Charm"...

It has been detected that the host already has a high charm upgrading reward...

Congratulations to the host for getting "Mystical Beast Charm"...

Mystical Beast Charm: As its name suggests, this is used to charm mystical beasts. The possessor has an aura that will attract and make it easy to gain affection from mystical beasts. This is a passive skill that works 24x7. It is recommended not to target multiple beasts at once, or a fight may break out between them for your attention.

Additionally, this skill makes the possessor a mystical beast master, but unlike normal ones, the possessor of this charm can tame as many beasts as they want. They can even upgrade this skill to tame higher-tier beasts.

Effects:

• Your charm will be doubled for any beast-related being.

• No beast will harm you.

• You can break other beasts' connections with their masters and make them yours without much trouble as long as the beast agrees.

Sub-Skill: Charmer

Charmer: Can charm any beast for only a limited period. In that period, the charmed beast will do anything the host commands it to do. (Note: Can be used on multiple targets.)

'Fuck this, first tell me why Amara's favorability for me is that high?'

Normally, Alex should be checking his rewards and planning on how to effectively use them, but not right now. He saw something earth-shaking. Amara, his sister's favorability for him, exceeded the 300-point mark. How is that even possible? Isn't a normal couple only able to reach 70 points in their lifetime?

He, who has a system, can surpass that, but her favorability for him is that much even before he got a system. 350 points was her initial value of favorability towards him, which raises too many questions.

Also, another thing, Amara is not the only strange thing here. Although she gives him most of the shock, the other two women do not fall too far behind. This trio of women suddenly increased their favorability towards him.

Usually, it's a good thing, but now he doesn't know the reason for it. He is afraid that if he makes a mistake and ignores this strange phenomenon with women, he might be locked in the basement somewhere. Well, at least he will not be alone.

[Ding! Host, the reason why Amara's favorability is high is all because of her setting. In the novel, she is a late-stage villainess. Her plot was that after you got killed by Nathan, she would go on a crazy rampage for revenge. That's because, according to the plot, she was in mad love with you, which was insulted and disgusted by the protagonist many times.]

The system, as user-friendly as it is, quickly answered the trouble Alex was having about the current situation.

Normally, a woman with Amara's charm and beauty should be the type of enemy who turns into a lover trope, but here she had a twist in the plot. Maybe the author didn't want to follow the old routine, so Amara's setting was that she was a serious bro-con.

Nathan, as the protagonist, was greedy for her body and tried multiple methods such as threats, temptations, bribes, etc., but Amara never yielded to him. At the last moment, she self-sacrificed, trying to kill Nathan with her, but sadly, protagonist's luck, she failed.

But she was not sad. With a very charming smile adorning her lips, even to her last breath, she had her brother's name in her mouth. She was happy that now she got to meet him. There they can have their little place.

That is Amara's story and the reason why there is this much initial favorability for him, as she was in love with Alex from childhood. Calling that love will be an understatement, but that is the reason.

'Okay, that explains Amara. What about these tw-'

"Alex!! What are you doing?"

Alex wanted to ask the system about why the other two women behaved strangely too, but before he could ask, Amara yanked him towards her, hiding him behind her. Then she looked at the two women with a deadly glare.

"Alex, are these women important? It's better to silence them here."

Amara was fully alert, her two sharp eyes monitoring the other two closely. There was panic and hostility in her tone as she spoke. She wanted to silence these two women here to keep this secret only between the proximity of this wall.

"No, no. You misunderstood, I don't have any ill intentions."

"Same here, I will never do something that hurts Mister Death."

Isabella and Rita raised their hands to show Amara they were not a threat. Both women had a look of shock and horror written all over their faces. They never expected to see someone like Alex here in the college dormitory.

"Wait a minute, first of all, before you guys start, I have dibs on first blood. And second, can someone tell me what is happening?"

Alex didn't know what this woman was doing and what had suddenly happened to them that they were reacting like this. But he was confident that he was the cause of the trouble. He just didn't know what he did to trigger them. He couldn't think of anything he did that could be seen as abnormal.

"The fire you used, what rank is that superpower?"

It was Amara who answered his query quickly, seeing that her brother needed help. But her eyes never left the two women. Not that she was afraid of them attacking her, but she was more worried about them escaping and revealing this forbidden knowledge to the world.

"What rank? It's SS-Rank... Ohhh, now I get it."

Alex realized that his superpower rank was SS-Rank. For him, it was not a big deal as he already knew about the plot and that there were way bigger ranks than the SS one. But for early plot people, an SS-Rank awakening was nothing but an urban legend. Not to mention an SS-Rank warrior, but even the -Rank superpower did not appear in this world for millennia.

So it was logical that when these women saw Alex casually using an SS-Rank skill as not a big deal, they were shocked to the core, which was also the reason for their increased favorability towards him.

Also, the reason why Amara reacted this way was that if the news about him being the possessor of an SS-Rank power got out, Alex would be targeted by everyone in the world. Some would want to see his powers, some would want to woo him, some would see him as a threat, and even some would try to steal his superpower from him.

There might be another family that would target the Winchester family as they would see Alex as a rising member of the Winchester family. Currently, those families only had peace because they maintained an equilibrium of power. So although the Winchester family was slightly stronger than them, those families didn't care.

But if someone with potential like Alex came from that family, then that equilibrium would break, making those powerful families go to war with each other and causing massive bloodshed.

So even if the Winchester family was more than capable of defending themselves, if those other families combined and targeted Alex, it would be hard to say if they were able to protect him.

"So it's really an SS-Rank superpower? I never thought those existed. I also used to think it was an urban legend, a made-up story to glorify mythical beastmasters."

Rita first snapped out of her shock and she spoke in shock.

As said before, the reason why mystical beastmasters are so respected and considered a noble field is that it's one of the few fields with the potential to reach SS-Rank awakened.

Rita was now numb to the shock as she got surprised many times in these 24 hours. Yesterday, she saw that a human could also be handsome to this extent. She still couldn't see Alex as just a normal human. Then there was a supernatural thing like encountering a ghost. She used to think ghosts didn't exist, yet she saw one.

And now, she, who used to think that SS-Rank didn't exist, now saw that they pretty much do. If Alex doesn't fall midway, he will be an SS-Rank awakened.

"You are not the only one. I also used to think it was a prank of those people in the hidden society, thinking I am a newbie in their group."

Isabella also looked at Alex with shock in her eyes. This man gave her too many surprises in so little time. First, his looks, then his background. After that, his hospitality, and now this? How many mysteries did this man have?

'No, I can't let Alia hoard all of Alex for herself. Now there is one more reason for me to get him,' Isabella thought.

Before, she was still a little hesitant about what others thought of her for wanting to get a boy of her son's age, but now she doesn't care. She now not only has a proper reason but also a way she can go all out, and those elders in the family will do nothing but praise her contribution to the family.

'But will I be enough to make him give up on Alia? I don't like it, but that girl is also blessed by the goddess of beauty. Maybe if my ungrateful daughter joined, then didn't my chances would increase more? She too is equal to Alia in beauty. This way, she might hate me a little less.'

Here the thinking of a heroine in a harem novel kicks in for Isabella. And she is not only a heroine but also the mother of the protagonist. So this type of heroine has the least amount of possessiveness for their man, as it will make it easier for protagonists to open a harem.

And every good mother in this type of novel should be the best wingman for her man. So it's logical to think that she will push her daughter too. Not only that, if the situation arises, she will also go out of her way to arrange a woman for her man. Because of this perk of the mother heroine why this trope is the most loved one.

It's just that she was supposed to do all this for the protagonist, but here tables are turned. The protagonist himself sends her, his mother, into the arms of Alex, a villain of the novel.

"I don't understand how you know I have an SS-Rank superpower?" Amara was still protecting Alex behind her back as her eyes intently looked at both Isabella and Rita.

"That's because..."

*Growl*

Rita wanted to say the reason, but the loud growl of Shapira startled her. Before anyone could react, Shapira moved at super speed and hopped on Alex's body before getting close to his face, opening her jaws and showing her sharp deadly fangs.

(A/N: Quick question, do you want the R-18 scene now here or wait till Isabella's daughter also joins?

Like always, thank you for reading, and have a good day �.)
