Amara's body slammed into Rita's body. As she was not prepared, both of them fell to the ground with full force. Then, without further ado, she stood up, grabbed Rita's wrist and dragged her into the bedroom before slamming door shut.

"What is happening?"

Isabella couldn't understand what just happened as it happened too fast. Amara just lunged towards the new girl. But that's not important. What she was more concerned about was the fact that the new woman didn't have any clothes on her body.

She was butt-naked and she walked out of the room in that condition. Seeing her casual action, she should be very familiar with the house and people here, as no sane woman would appear naked in front of a man as handsome as Alex unless she was in a physical relationship with him or not interested in a man.

"So Amara is Lala?"

Well, Isabella threw the option of Rita being in a physical relationship with Alex out of the window as it is not good for her mental health. So she directly confirmed the second part being the truth. Even the reaction of Amara was seen as proof in her eyes.

"Sorry, she has a serious case of 3-stage stupidity. Unfortunately, that can't be cured. Poor her."

Alex answered her as he, at some point, was standing by her side only a few metres away. As he spoke in pity, he ran his hand through his thick, luscious, dark hair to fix his bed hair.

"Pfft - Hahaha!"

Isabella couldn't help but laugh. She held her flat stomach as she chuckled and her body shook as she tried to hold back her amusement. Her big, soft bosom also jiggled, as if it might defy gravity.

"Is this a laughing matter? My sister has a serious health condition. You do know that stupidity is deadly."

Alex said with a stern face and a hardened tone. He looked like he was really angry seeing her reaction to his news.

"I... I'm sorry. I didn't know it was this serious."

Isabella quickly said, realizing that her tone with Alex was inappropriate.

An unreasonable fear rose in her heart as she turned around and apologized to him for her mistake. She didn't know why she reacted like that. Maybe it was the unknown family background Amara had mentioned, or the fear of being disliked by Alex.

For the first time as the head of the family, Isabella felt raw fear and uneasiness as Alex didn't reply to her yet.

"Hahaha, got you! I'm just kidding. Don't be that scared, Isabella."

Alex said, taking a 180° turn and bursting out laughing. He tapped her on the shoulder and then lightly squeezed it, making it seem natural, and Isabella thought that Alex was just being friendly.

But Alex had a deeper meaning behind this simple act. He was programming her subconscious to not be too alert to his touch so that he could push forward slowly. He still had to maintain his persona of a pure good boy, at least in the initial period of the raid.

As the head of the family, Isabella felt raw fear and uneasiness for the first time, as Alex didn't reply to her yet.

<Mistake pleas ignore : But Alex had a deeper meaning behind this simple act. He was programming her subconscious to not be too alert his touch, so that he could push forward slowly. still maintain persona of pure good boy, at least in the initial period raid.>

"I-I wasn't scared at all. It just startled me."

Isabella quickly lied, not wanting to admit that she was scared. She was shocked to hear Alex and cursed herself for not understanding the simple thing that a man's heart is like a sea of needles.

But she was also a little excited. Alex's hand on her shoulder sent a current of pleasure through her body, making her shiver a little. Her body also heated up as her face flushed with the blood rush. Her heart thumped fast, and her breathing increased. Her nether region also became moist, and it started to tingle. She held back her urge to rub herself right here and now to extinguish the fire of desire in her heart.

Seeing her condition, Alex was satisfied. After all, he had not just simply touched her, but used his ecstasy hands on a low level. This not only slowed down her thinking process but also became a source of suppressed lust, making it easier for him to touch her as she would ignore it at another moment.

"What's happening to me? Is this my second youth kicking in? I've never felt this hot and thirsty before. Why is my body burning?" Isabella couldn't understand this sudden change in her body. She had never felt this way before.

Even though she was the mother of two, she had never felt this way. She had to deal with it since that was the logic that worked in this world.

"Really? And here I thought I could hug you as an apology, but now it looks like that's not needed."

Alex said, laughing in his mind. It was too easy to tease someone like Isabella, just look at her face, the complicated emotions, those struggling and painful eyes as she regretted talking too much.

"Well...I do got scared a little, just a tiny bit," Isabella corrected herself.

Isabella wanted to slap herself for her large mouth. If she had just shut up and agreed, she should have been able to hug him. But she had to ruin it. Still, she didn't want to give up. She quickly changed her statement, ignoring the aftermath of it.

Right now, as Alex wanted, her thinking was controlled by lust. So it would be much easier for Alex to make her do something that she would not do in a sane mind.

"You just want a hug, don't you? You just had to ask. Here," Isabella said.

Alex had a wide, friendly smile on his face as he opened his arms and hugged her, taking in her plump, sensual figure.

As he tightened his hold on the hug, he realized he had underestimated the size of her softness. Two big, warm, elastic mounds of hers were pressing against his muscular chest. He naturally wrapped his hands around her slim waist, which somehow didn't have an ounce of fat even when she had this plump figure. He put them just above her tight ass as if he were teasing her.

Isabella put her chin on his shoulder. Her already fast breathing increased once again. Her hot breath hit Alex's neck, making him also excited. Alex knew he could complete the first option right here and now if he wanted to. He just had to budge her a little, but he didn't.

He would not lose a war over some petty victory in a small battle. He had a huge vision in his mind, so he just had to keep reaching her until she couldn't take it anymore. That time, he would be able to do whatever he wanted. He just had to wait for a little bit.

"Here, are you happy?"

Alex let go of her body as he broke their hug. He spoke with a friendly tone as he looked at the reluctant eyes of Isabella. She should have been really annoyed and teased by his hand being near her ass. After all, she was already horny, and his actions were like a teasing foreplay.

"He seems friendly. Is Nathan lying to me? Is he jealous of Alex's looks, that's why he had trouble with him? After all, Alex does not look like a person to hurt someone unprovoked,"

Isabella couldn't help but wonder about the truth and reality of the situation. She got a firsthand glimpse of their background of Alex, and yet he was so friendly. He even hugged her. So the seed of doubt took root in her heart.

Of course, this revelation had nothing to do with Alex's looks and the strong feeling in her heart. She was 90...80...70% sure of it. It was all logical reasoning.

When Alex saw those thoughtful eyes of hers, he smirked. Who said that one action can be only for achieving one thing? He planned so that he could have his cake and eat it too.

Like right now, he just sowed the seed in her heart. Not long after, he would pit this mother against her own son. Even behind this, Alex had a reason. If he now cut off one early win of the protagonist by separating one of the biggest help in the early stage, his mother, then didn't that force the world to give him another one?

And who do you think that help will be? He was eyeing that help. He was setting the web to catch the character that had not appeared yet in the plot.

"By the way, I am sorry that your son got hurt. Do you know who beat him?"

Then he, of course, gave another reason to doubt her son because technically he had nothing to do with converting Nathan into a mummy. It was all done by Rita. If he pulled some strings, he could even twist and turn to create a story that made it look like it was all Nathan's fault.

Or he didn't even have to do much as most of it was Nathan's fault for his condition. He just had to make those things more visible and exacerbate them.

"Huh!? Sorry, but I was told you are the one who hurt him. Can you tell me your side of the story?"

Isabella was surprised to hear Alex's words. The doubt in her heart increased even more. Now she wanted to hear Alex's side of the story. Unlike before when she was just doing this to not create trouble for her family, now it was personal. She hated liars the most.

So even if her son was the one who lied, she would severely punish him. She had a rule not to lie because she, as a businesswoman, saw cons in them. As it would create too much trouble for her. Of course, the rule is not to lie. You are free to not tell the truth. Be clever, just don't give others something they can use against you.

"Well, when my girlfriend and I exited out of the elevator, I saw him covered in bandages, carried in a wheelchair and-"

Roar

Alex wanted to talk vaguely about the situation and let her figure it out, but Shapira might have felt neglected. She roared at Alex to get his attention, which she got successfully. This was also a good thing. Let Isabella wonder. His Peach Blossom eyes should be working on her.

He planned to ferment the effect of it before he tapped into it.

"Ohh, you felt left out girl? Or are you hungry?"

Alex walked back to Shapira. She was seated in the same position as she was before, looking at him with puppy eyes. Well, give her a break, she was going through an identity crisis.

He couldn't resist. He stretched his hand and rubbed her head, which she enjoyed thoroughly.

"He already has a girlfriend. Why?"

Isabella, other than getting frustrated by Alex leaving mid-conversation, was glad he stopped talking. Because the moment he mentioned his girlfriend, she felt pain in her heart as if someone had plunged a blunt knife into it.

She remembered the thing she was trying to ignore. Alex is the boyfriend of Alia. The same Alia who is known not just for her business talent but also for her beauty. She suddenly became self-conscious as she felt low about herself.

"No, I, too, am beautiful. In my youth, I was known as a white lotus because of my beauty. I should steal Alex from Alia, not for me but to keep my family safe... Yes, Alex should have a terrifying background. If Alia teamed up with him, no top family in Berlin city could defend against them. I am just trying to protect my family; others will understand it."

Isabella jumped headfirst into the pit Alex just laid for her. As it was said before, Alex would not make any meaningless decisions. Each plan of his was well thought out, and as he got used to this world, his rules became sharper and sharper.

Let's just ignore the fact Isabella doesn't know what white lotus means but focus on what she wanted to do.

Her hands clenched as she made a decision. She looked at Alex's back with her eyes full of desire and love for him. She now wanted him. She wanted something this badly for the first time in her life, and she would go to get it.

...

"Mom should be making Alex regret why he even means something to me right now. I wish I were there to see his face, but that doesn't matter. I will get lots of opportunities to see him suffer. Hahaha, Arrack."

In the manner of the Gayler family, the protagonist who is ignorant of how he shot himself in the foot by sending his mother to Alex and was lost in a fantasy about how he was going to torture Alex later.

"I don't know what mom likes. I should take her on a date to ease her mind and thank her for her help."

Nathan here is making plans about taking his mother on a date while Alex plans on taking her to bed. That's the difference between the protagonist and the villain.

"Ouch! Stop hitting me. I said I didn't realize it, okay!?"

This time, Rita came out of Alex's bedroom fully dressed, rubbing her head. Angrily, she spoke to Amara, who followed behind her with an angry expression.

"How did you not notice you were naked? Are you that dumb?"

Amara wanted to smack her again, but Rita quickly dodged and ran towards Alex in a hurry.

"Save me from her, Mister Death!"

Rita made her way towards Alex and hid behind him, only sticking her head out and looking at Amara with fearful eyes. She knew she couldn't resist this woman at all.

There was no chance of fighting back. She tried, but Amara played with her like a cat playing with a mouse. The mouse might have had a chance to escape its fate, but Rita didn't.

Her killer instinct warned her not to act foolishly. That's why, other than running away, she hid behind Alex, knowing that Amara wouldn't do anything to her as long as Alex protected her.

*Growl*

Amara stopped in her tracks as she saw Rita hiding behind Alex. She was reluctant, but in her eyes, Alex and Rita were already a couple, so she couldn't do too much or Alex might get angry.

But just because Amara couldn't do anything, that didn't mean Shapira too couldn't. When she saw another woman getting close to Alex, she became dissatisfied.

She growled and hissed at Rita in anger, showing her deadly fangs and sharp nails. Shapira was showing her ferocious look, but she didn't move an inch from her place; it was all just a warning.

"Fuck!! Mystical beast."

Rita was sweating buckets now. The tiger showed a sign of intelligence that only a mystical beast can exhibit, which means...Rita slowly turned her head back to Alex, who was using his body to hide her.

"No wonder he looks so divine. He is the Mystical beastmaster."

Rita misunderstood Shapira as being a familiar of Alex. As Shapira was standing close to him and protecting him, Rita thought that's what beasts do with their masters. If anyone else approached them, they showed that person why they were still called beasts.

Normally a beastmaster itself is a proud thing but when you add mystical beastmaster with the mystical beast, That person is in a totally different league. Those people has one of the highest potential to step into S-Rank and according to legends break free bounds of S-Rank to step into SS-Rank.

"Both of you, stop fighting. Go wash your hands and sit at the dining table."

Alex did what he wanted to do. Now, he had to first solidify before speeding up because this was still fresh. He wanted to give Isabella a few hours before making a move on her, so he decided to start with others. After all, Amara and Rita were also like a walking gold bank for him. He just had to create a situation that could trigger the selection option and see if he could artificially trigger it or not.

"Okay, Brother~"

"Yes, Death~"

"I should get going."

Amara and Rita hurriedly agreed as they were both very hungry. But Isabella thought this was her cue to leave, so she didn't want to bother and decided to leave before someone else told her to. She still wanted answers about the events of yesterday.

"Where are you going, Isabella? Sorry, you can't leave without having breakfast. Before you say anything, I don't care if you ate before coming here. You still have to eat here."

How could Alex let go of the tender sheep who walked into his den? He still wanted to complete the task as it not only rewarded him but was also quite tempting.

So he quickly stopped Isabella who was about to leave. He looked directly into her eyes with overflowing gentleness in them.

*Thump*

Isabella felt her heart skip a beat as she looked into his void-like, enchanting eyes. She even wished that the gentleness in them was just for her. She wanted him to look at her like that for the rest of her life. She would die without any regret if that happened.

'Maybe Nathan is really lying. Look at Alex, how good he is. He will never do something that brutal to anyone. I have to punish Nathan for lying now. He might have forgotten about my rules. Let me help him remember them. Also, punish him for trying to harm a pure soul like Alex.'

Isabella started brain-feeding as the effect of the peach blossom started to show. It was a really powerful thing Alex had received, even considering the broken powers of his other skills.

After all, these eyes were killer moves for any woman, and Alex didn't have to spend extra time thinking about the solution to the aftermath of his trick. These women did that for him, thanks to this skill.

Like right now thanks to this skill, Alex without doing much created a discord between this mother and son, He should thank Rose for this "Gift" of hers soon.

[Ding! +5 Favorability of Isabella increased for the host (Current: 75 Love)]

The system's voice rang in Alex's mind, indicating that he was on the right track. Alex looked up at Isabella, hearing the system's voice. Her face was flushed, and there were complicated emotions in her eyes.

He figured that she was thinking deeply, especially about Nathan and him, as those complicated looks in her eyes indicated. So he didn't say much, just led her to the dining table and took his seat.

Amara was dissatisfied with Isabella being there. Well, she also hated Rita intruding on her brother-sister time with Alex, but she couldn't do anything as this was Alex's decision. So she just went with the flow. At least her brother was here. She was happy with this much.

She quickly took an empty seat on the right side of him because there wasn't enough space. She had little moments of touching and rubbing Alex's body. When she felt his warmth, she forgot all about it as only her brother mattered to her.

Rita took a seat on the left side of Alex. But unlike Amara, she didn't hesitate and stuck her body to his arm. She did this not just because of Alex's tempting body fragrance but also because she felt safe near him.

Right now, there were two beings in this room that she knew of that could make her feel helpless. But by Alex's side, she was confident that this woman would not do anything to her. She didn't know how there were so many strong people in a small city like Berlin.

Thankfully, she didn't know that Isabella was also an A-Rank awakened, or there was a chance that she would lose her mind. After all, being an A-Rank awakened means they get special treatment, If you ignore the few legendary S-Rank. A-Rank is like a god. They can be directly appointed to a higher level in the government if they wanted to.

As for Isabella, she just found a table in front of Alex to sit at. The actions of both women contradicting her conclusion of them being lesbians were ignored by her as if she didn't see anything.

"Hey, what will Shapira eat?"

After everyone had taken their seats, Alex looked at Shapira, who was sitting on the edge of her seat and looking at them with pitiful eyes. She must have been hungry, so Alex asked Amara if he should give her a sandwich.

"Oh, her? She's vegan, so she only eats...hey hey, I'm just kidding, brother. Please put that knife down."

Amara responded to Alex's question, trying to make a joke but when she saw that Alex had picked up the knife from the table and was looking at her intently, she quickly clarified that she was joking and backed away slightly. She was really afraid of making her brother angry.

"Brother she only eats imported roasted meat from the Island country or the things she hunts."

Amara quickly added to prevent any misunderstandings. Normally, mystical beasts should eat what humans eat, but as Shapira is still a cub, she only eats what the beast eats.

"Don't worry, Mystique, her personal chef, will come here in the afternoon, It's just she has to miss breakfast for today."

Amara explained to Alex why Shapira hadn't eaten anything, looking apologetic.

If it were just a matter of imported meat, she should be able to arrange it, as every seven-star restaurant should have it. However, Shapira didn't eat raw meat but preferred professionally cooked one,

So Amara always had a chef appointed for her. However, she had come here in a hurry yesterday, so the chef didn't get time to come with them.

She would arrive in the afternoon, so Shapira would have to wait. Perhaps she was hungry, and that might be also one of the reasons why she approached Alex earlier. She might have been asking him for food.

"I can cook. Just order it, and I'll make it for her."

How can Alex let someone cute as her be hungry for the whole morning? So he offered to cook for Shapira. One phone call was enough to have meat delivered in 10 to 15 minutes.

"My family owns four seven-star hotels. I can arrange it now, and it will arrive in 5 minutes max."

Isabella said, taking out her phone before anyone had asked her to do so. She also mentioned her wealth to Alex, not to flex but because she didn't want to be ignored.

"No need, I have my connections and-"

"Thank you for your help, Isabella. Please see if they can deliver it as soon as possible."

Amara now sees Isabella as a competitor for her brother's love, so she will oppose anything and anytime she gets a chance as that's how women work here.

But Alex had other plans, so he cut Amara's sentence midway and asked and thanked Isabella for her trouble. He needed time to arrange things to put all the blame on Nathan, so it was best if Isabella was busy with something.

*Snap*

*Woof-Flash*

After he was done, he snapped his fingers, and a mighty red flame appeared out of thin air. A strand of that flame was dancing between his fingers like a butterfly on the flowers.

"Let me warm this thing for you."

Alex said and threw the flame in his hand on the sandwiches on the table. Even though they were under the food container, it was still able to sweep through the gaps and started warming only sandwiches.

The trio of women were stunned, looking at Alex with horror in their eyes.

[Ding! +5 Favorability of Isabella increased for the host (Current: 80 Only One)]

[Ding! +5 Favorability of Rita increased for the host (Current: 85 Only One)]

[Ding! +5 Favorability of Amara increased for the host (Current: 355 Unhealthy Obsession)]

Alex didn't know what just happened. There were too many questions. 

[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.

Shapira was standing above the fallen body of Alex as her two icy blue eyes glared at him with strange looks in her eyes.

"Shapira girl cool down, I am Ale-"

[Ding! +20 Favorability of Shapira increased for the host (Current: 100 Unhealthy Obsession.)]

[Ding! Congratulations host for successfully raiding Shapira (Current: 100 Unhealthy Obsession)...

The rewards were being distributed...

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

Please choose the following...

• White Tiger

• Green Mantis

• Black Tortoise

• Red Snake

• Blue Monkey]

'Just give me a stupid reason as an explanation.'

Alex looked stupidly at the system notification, Didn't it too much? First banging your daughter and granddaughter was suggested to him and with "hard" hearted agreement, As at least they are human and importantly women but Shapira in front of him is an all in all a wild animal.

He was not into bestiality at all, It's not morals but simple common sense stopping him, Didn't HIV is proof enough to not stick your dick into animals? Although it might be an urban tale, still don't stick your dick in animals.

[Ding! Host Shapira is not an animal but a mystical beast. They can change their body from beast to human and vice versa at will. The only reason she was appearing in beast form is that she is still in a cub. When she reaches 23 years old, She will change.]

The system might have learned to detect sarcasm or it really did provide the stupid reason as an explanation but either way it did not make it any less easy for Alex.

After all, right now a 200-pound beast is on top of him, His purity is in danger. He even thought that heart shapes in Shapira's eyes. If he doesn't do anything now then he is not sure what will happen next.

'System hurry to lower the effectiveness of Mystical beast charm.'

Alex quickly asked the system to lower the effectiveness of his newly gotten skill, This skill was way too effective, Well that given as his already super high charm will be doubled for the wild beast.

So it's very reasonable for her to act like this. She was holding back a lot, which shows the training she received was not ordinary.

"Bad girl, get off from my brother."

Amara saw Shapira hopping on Alex's body, making him fall to the ground. Her anger reached its extreme. She before put all her attention on Rita and Isabella and ignored her as she never thought Shapira could even attack Alex like this. Although she might be playing around, Alex might still get seriously hurt because of her, Which is the worst ceim one can commit in her mind.

She trained her especially to be careful around him, yet on the first meeting after a long time, she did this. She was disappointed in Shapira. Amara even thought of replacing her, but seeing that it was her first mistake, she cut her some slack.

*Growl*

Apira now got back to her senses as the system lowered the Beast Charm skill of Alex. So she was very fearful to realize what she just did. As a mystical beast, she has the thinking process of a human adult. It just her brain only thinks like a toddler, because she is just a cub, a 22-year-old cub. So Shapira quickly gets off Alex's body and fearfully stands in her place, waiting for the punishment for her crime.

Although Amara spoils her for doing other things and ignores her normal behavior, when it comes to her brother, she doesn't care about anything else, even though she is a beast and knows that.

"No, it was my fault, I am sorry, Shapira."

When Alex saw the reaction to Shapira, he felt bad. He has known her since childhood, so he knows that she should have felt very bad for making him fall to the ground. Looking at Amara's favorability for him, it's quite clear that she should have trained her to be as Alex-friendly as possible.

And by her reaction, the punishment for going against those protocols has serious consequences, as he never thinks that a mystical beast will act fearfully without any reason.

So he stretched his hand and patted her on her head to make her relax a little and decrease her guilt.

"How is this your fault, brother?

Amara, though ignored their first offence of Shapira, but her anger was still there. She still wanted to make her practice even more strict. But now Alex took all the blame on him for no reason. She can't let that happen. Her brother can never be wrong. If someone is wrong, then this world should be the wrong one, not her lovely brother.

"Alex, don't try to take her blame on you. It's not good for the training of the beasts."

Rita, as a member of the Dragon Gate organization, knows a lot about beasts. Although Shapira is a mystical beast, a lot different from the normal beast, their training when they are cubs is quite similar.

So Alex ignoring her mistakes will do no good in the long run. The beast might even turn against their master. This should be quite rare to happen, but if not trained accurately, it has a very high chance of happening.

"....She should just be playful. She seems quite friendly to me."

Isabella is not involved in the awakened world as she was very busy handling her family and controlling her daughter's move against her brother. So she didn't know much about the knowledge of the Awakened society. She only knows some basics.

That's why, in her eyes, Shapira's actions seem like not a big deal. But she didn't realize that this is an all-powerful wild beast with superpowers and super strength, not a house cat whose scratches can be ignored.

"No, I am the reason why she reacted like this. After all, who told me to be this handsome? Even beasts were not immune to it. It's really a burden."

Alex once again embraces his narcissistic personality and shamelessly boosts his own beauty. But others can't do anything as he doesn't lie. What he said is a hundred percent true. His charm is the culprit behind Shapira's actions.

"..."

".....Well, Mister Death is really handsome."

"No, using a word like handsome is an insult to my brother. No word can define his beauty and charm. That's my brother."

These three women had different reactions to Alex's statement, and Isabella was speechless. She didn't know if Alex was joking or he was serious, as both possibilities are highly possible, as Alex has a charm that can't be defined in normal words.

Rita, on the other hand, was not sure what to say but she agreed to Alex. In her eyes, he is the most handsome being she had ever seen. No one comes close to his charm and beauty, so she doesn't get confused and readily agrees as what Alex said is a fact.

And Amara, as a Bro-con, will always be on Alex's side. So if Alex said his charm was the reason, then she, without questioning, agreed and made it a fact.

"Okay, let's eat first. After that, you will explain to me in detail how you guys found out about my SS-Rank skill."

Alex suggested eating first as though he wanted the answer to his question. He wanted much more right now, so it was best to have this woman at least on the obsession level of favorability for him. This way, he will achieve and unlock the legendary position of sleeping with a protagonist mother. Maybe he will add others too.

"Yeah, I am super hungry. I haven't eaten since morning."

Rita said as she rubbed her tummy with a wronged tone. At this moment, there is no resemblance of a cold killer but a sister next door aura. This might be the real personality that she unconsciously let out as she felt comfortable here.

"Right now, it's still morning, you fat ass."

Amara, of course, will not miss the opportunity to take a shot at Rita. Right now, it's 7 AM, so yeah, this is morning. It's reasonable for Amara to act out towards Rita.

"So? I didn't lie, did I? I haven't eaten anything since morning, which is, in fact, a true statement. As a businesswoman, you should know that, 'Sister' Amara."

Rita is also not a normal woman. She dances on the knife edge for a living. So Amara's little rude words will not harm her at all. But, on the contrary, she hits Amara where it's hurting the most.

What is Amara most proud of? Her brother. Well... What Amara is second most proud of is her business talent. She is also known as a business witch in her field of work, a thing that gives her the confidence to stand close to her brother.

And now, Rita exploiting her mistake in reasoning is going to have a way bigger impact on her than it seems.

"Well, technically Rita didn't lie. Also, she is nowhere near to be compared to the word 'fat'. Your statement of her calling her 'fat' is unbiased and a total lie."

Isabella also joined to attack Amara. After all, Amara does put too much pressure on her before. So, how could she miss this golden opportunity for revenge? So, she too joined in bullying Amara.

"You-You... Brother, look, they are bullying me."

Amara pointed her slender index finger at them, trying to counter their argument, but she really didn't see any flaws in their argument at all. Their reasoning is flawless.

This is really morning, and Rita also didn't eat anything yet. So, according to this, Rita's statement is true, and calling her 'fat ass', Amara did this just to anger her, but it backfired.

Rita might be a beta woman, but she is not a fat ass, as a set of well-proportioned muscles on her legs and abdomen are proof of it.

So, seeing no option, a grown 26-year-old woman jumped into Alex's arms and complained to him like a child.

"Hey, you two, stop bullying her."

Alex, seeing her act like this, wanted to laugh. He knows how powerful and scary this woman is for others. There is a reason why she is the villainess of the late plot, but in front of him, she is as harmless as a white rabbit.

She even didn't care about the fact that she is their elder sister, and her doing this will seem like a low-grade move, but she is always like that. Since childhood, whenever she encounters something she can't handle, she turns up to Alex crying.

This might be the base reason why her favorability for him is so high and why she thinks her brother can do anything. Her trust in Alex increased and solidified to this extent, becoming a routine daily in their childhood.

So he hugged her surprisingly soft body in his arms and acted as if he sternly warned others to stop bullying her.

When Alex said it, both Rita and Isabella shared a look and tried their hardest not to burst out laughing, seeing Amara's action. They never thought that someone like Amara also has a side like this one, but Alex said to not bully her, so they stopped, at least in front of Alex, because they were not going to do it.

"Okay, sister, stop crying. Let's go and eat something."

Alex patted Amara on her back as she was sobbing in his arms. There might be a slight chance that she was acting to hug him, but whatever the case, she still looked cute. Anyway, he was also not losing anything. He was still hugging a beauty.

"Okay~"

"O-Okay"

"Hmmm."

A trio of women replayed differently. Rita was excited, Isabella was a little hesitant, and Amara just hummed in satisfaction. Soon, all of them once again sat in their original seating position.

After Alex uncovered the sandwiches and served them to them, that woman looked surprised at how good they were looking as they even have a glittering effect in the anime. They couldn't wait to take a bite.

"Aah-hum~"

*Boom*

All three of them quickly lifted the sandwich in their hand before taking a bite. As they took a bite, They were shocked to their core.
