"Alex!" Grace exclaimed as she caught Alex's falling body.

Turning around, she carefully leaned him against the tree's trunk, a frown appearing on her face.

'Why did he pass out? He seemed okay just a moment ago,' Grace wondered as she examined Alex's body closely.

Seeing no wounds where he could have been poisoned, she breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.

At that moment, she sensed a trickle of liquid running down her legs.

'Perhaps it's a good thing he passed out,' she sighed.

Her mind returned to the intense moment they had shared, and she felt the liquid trickling down her legs intensify.

"Fuck, what was I about to do?" Grace shook her head.

Sensing movements, Grace looked downward only to witness the bulge in Alex's trousers stirring.

Despite having lost consciousness, Alex's erection persisted, proudly straining against the confines of its tight prison.

Seeing the bulge in Alex's pants, Grace became curious about its size. Judging by how it felt when it rubbed against her waist, she thought that it must surely be big.

'Just a quick glance, I'm only checking because I'm concerned for his well-being, nothing more,' she reassured herself internally. However, as the glistening liquid flowing down her legs intensified, it became dubious if her sole motivation was indeed Alex's well-being.

Just as Grace's hand hovered mere centimeters from freeing her grandson's throbbing member, she stopped herself.

"Let's just stop here," she sighed, a mix of regret and resignation in her voice.

Suppressing the lustful curiosity consuming her, she stood up.

As an expert of level 7, suppressing her emotions was as easy as breathing for Grace. However, in certain cases, it might prove to be challenging for her to do so, especially when faced with unexpected situations like the one just encountered.

She was about to lift Alex's unconscious body when she remembered something.

A split second later, Grace vanished from her spot only to reappear seconds later, two creatures in hands and a third, a snake, coiled around her neck, it's black scales contrasting with Grace's milky white skin.

The creature in her right hand resembled a red panda, with a round face and a long, bushy tail. It had a fluffy reddish-brown fur, adorned with distinctive white markings around its eyes and on its cheeks.

The other creature in Grace's hand, however, was a tiger, a white tiger to be precise. It had creamy white fur with occasional faint stripes of black along its body.

These three creatures looked absolutely adorable, but if one knew what they looked like a few seconds earlier, one wouldn't use the term "adorable" to describe them.

They were the very same creatures Alex mentioned were hiding when the level 5 monsters surrounded him.

Throughout the fight between Alex and the other monsters, they stayed hidden. Even after the fight ended, they remained, neither attacking nor fleeing.

Even before approaching Alex, Grace had felt their presence and had the intention to deal with them once she finished teasing her grandson, but when things escalated from mere teasing to kissing and touching, she completely forgot about them.

Logically, creatures of this caliber should be intelligent enough to know that the moments Alex and Grace were kissing were the opportune moment to strike, yet, they stayed still, once again, neither leaving nor attacking.

When Grace suddenly appeared before them, they attempted to fight her, but the difference in strength was so vast that the fight didn't even last five seconds.

The thing that surprised Grace was that the instant she defeated them, all three creatures began shrinking from their initial monstrous forms, phenomenon followed by a loss of their levels, exactly like what happened to the monkey he had fought a few hours prior.

This intrigued Grace, and she decided to bring them with her when she returned.

Grace retrieved the cores of the level 5 monsters Alex had killed, lifted his unconscious body, and then returned to the location where Amelia, Anna, and the others were likely setting up camp, as night was approaching.

"Mmm" Alex yawned as he slowly opened his eyes.

'Why am I?' he wondered, greeted by the sight of luxurious red above him.

After a moment of observation, Alex realized that he was inside the carriage they rode to get here.

'How did I end up here? The last thing I remember is...' Alex's thoughts trailed off as memories of what happened before he lost consciousness flooded his mind.

'Grandma and I... kissed,' Alex thought, his expression frozen in disbelief.

The truth was that during and even before the kiss happened, he wasn't in a right state of mind and mostly acted on impulse.

It wasn't to say that he was regretting his actions. As explained earlier, the instant his lips touched hers, any bit of reluctance towards having a romantic or sexual relationship with his grandmother completely disappeared from Alex's mind.

And judged by the hardening of his penis right now as he recalled the intimate moment he shared with Grace, there was a one hundred percent chance that he would try to be with her once again.

There was just a troubling fact here: why the hell had he lost consciousness?!!!

[That's generally what happens when an idiot try to do something he isn't supposed to be doing]

The voice of the goddess of lust resounded in Alex's head, but contrary to usual, her tone didn't carry the usual alluring quality; instead, she sounded annoyed, almost angry.

'Okay, now I think I should really get worried, hearing your voice three times the same d-'

[Quiet] the goddess ordered, the annoyance apparent in her voice.

Alex did as he was told and shut his mouth. For some reason, he felt that it was better not to say anything right now and just listen to the goddess.

[Do you have an idea of what you attempted to do?] She questioned.

'If I remember correctly, I was-'

[Quiet, I said], the goddess cut him off sharply. [I swear, if you open it once again before I say so, you will regret it].

Alex's face suddenly contorted into a frown. He didn't like being threatened, even if the other party was a goddess, but in the end, he complied with her command and shut his mouth, though he made a mental note of it.

[You tried to control someone else's lust,] the goddess of lust stated, [do you know how dangerous that is for the current you?]

Hearing her words, Alex raised a brow in surprise. He wasn't a retard, he knew perfectly what he had attempted to do, what was surprising to him was the fact that he could really control the lust someone else was feeling, he didn't think that he could do something like that.

[Wait, you didn't think that all my powers allowed you to do was get stronger by having sex, right] the goddess of lust questioned in a genuine tone, the earlier irritation of her voice having disappeared.

Alex didn't reply and remained completely silent.

[Don't be cocky with me, answer] said the goddess of lust, the irritation in her voice having returned.

'To answer your question, yes, I did think that the only use of your artifact was to make me stronger after having sexual encounters,' Alex replied.

[Just how lowly do you think of me?] The goddess questioned in a hurt tone.

Before Alex could reply, he heard her sigh in defeat.

[Forget it, I guess it's my fault for not explaining the use of my powers to you, once again]

Alex nodded his head in confirmation.

He had lost the memory of the previous Alex encounter with the goddess of lust, so he obviously wouldn't know what she said her artifact could allow him to do. Since the mechanical voice he referred to as the 'system' didn't provide any further information, he had no way of knowing.

[To keep it short, beside the functions that you know, my powers also allow you to control the lust of someone else, you can either increase it or decrease] the goddess said and quickly adding, [of course there are several conditions to be meet before you can control someone else lust, there are even cases in which you can't do so]
