Liens gazed at the image before him, seeing Lucrezia leisurely soaking in a bathtub.
Her voluptuous curves were faintly visible in the water, and her fair, undulating figure made one's blood run hot, though whether intentionally or not, several key areas were obscured by mist, making them impossible to discern.
"I thought you would like a scene like this."
Lucrezia chuckled, then snapped her fingers, and the bathtub and surrounding bathing facilities vanished, her seductive figure now clothed in everyday attire.
"Hmm, I like it."
Liens nodded in a straightforward manner.
Hearing this, Lucrezia's expression montarily froze, and she looked at Liens with a strange gaze, wondering if he had been influenced by sothing.
"Don't look at with such a strange gaze... My personality might be a bit cold, but I am still a physiologically and psychologically normal male, so it's normal to like such things."
Liens was sowhat speechless; what did Lucrezia take him for?
As the saying goes, a gentleman appreciates beauty without being lewd.
As a normal male, he naturally possessed an eye for appreciating feminine beauty; it was just that he would not let such physiological needs influence his judgnt of things.
"Well, my room is empty right now. Would you like to see sothing more private, more exciting?"
As she spoke, a seductive expression appeared on Lucrezia's face, her body leaning slightly forward, her index finger hooking her collar and pulling it down slightly to reveal a deep cleavage.
At the sa ti, her other hand gently glided over her body, as if simulating soone's palm caressing her form. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel{f}ire
As that hand explored deeper into her body, Lucrezia, whether intentionally or truly imrsed in so fantasy, her eyes beca hazy, and she humd softly with moans.
"Stop, stop, stop... Continuing would cross the line of normal friendship, and I have sothing important to discuss with you."
Seeing Lucrezia about to perform a 'self-pleasure' show in front of him, Liens quickly spoke to stop her.
He had originally thought Lucrezia was just casually teasing him, but he didn't expect her to actually prepare to perform that for him in broad daylight.
"What important matter?"
Lucrezia retracted her right hand, which was about to delve deeper into her inner clothing, straightened her face, and asked Liens with a serious expression.
"War God Antonio, do you know him?"
Liens asked back seriously.
"Antonio?!"
"You encountered him?"
Lucrezia frowned, surprised.
"In 'my' era, Antonio was the War God who controlled the authority of war, and his strength was among the foremost ranks of the gods."
"However, he was also among the first to go mad... At that ti, he caused a great commotion, and was subsequently killed by the combined efforts of others."
"It was his death that made '' decide to reincarnate."
"I just didn't expect that those few people still didn't strike a fatal blow in the end... Was it to protect themselves, or did they realize sothing at that ti?"
Lucrezia murmured softly, as if asking herself, and also as if reminding Liens to pay attention to the key points.
"If he wasn't deceiving , then what I encountered should be the Old War God resurrected in modern tis..."
Liens described Antonio's current state and combat thods to Lucrezia, and most importantly, inquired about the thod Antonio used at the end.
After hearing Liens' description, Lucrezia looked at him aningfully.
Leaving aside the fact that Liens fought Antonio to the point where he could only escape by using that thod, his explanation alone was equivalent to directly indicating to her that he possessed special abilities.
"Ti? Fate?"
Lucrezia imdiately locked onto what she believed were the two directions with the strongest information retrieval capabilities in her mind.
Both precognition and reading fate could account for Liens' situation; however, for the person involved not to notice, Liens' ability level must be very high.
"According to your description, the thod Antonio used at the end should be 'Manifestation.'"
After a brief thought, Lucrezia began to answer Liens' questions.
"'Manifestation' is one of the fundantal abilities of the Godhood system, but precisely because it is fundantal, this ability is linked to the root of Godhood."
"Therefore, the status of 'Manifestation' is extrely high, and ordinary thods cannot interrupt it at all."
"Its purpose is very simple: it is to allow the Godhood wielder to descend their power upon their believers. At that ti, it was a common thod for us to exert influence on earthly religions."
"Antonio should have used this thod to transmit himself as a form of power to his believers."
Hearing this, Liens frowned slightly and turned to look at the three Glen Village villagers he had tied up on the ground not far away.
"Could it be such a coincidence?"
Liens said softly.
Because Alfred had used so ans to keep these three unconscious until now, to prevent them from alarming the evil god behind them if they woke up.
Even though Liens had them tied up with tree roots, there was still no sign of them waking up.
"What's such a coincidence?"
Lucrezia asked in confusion.
Hearing Lucrezia's question, Liens did not hide anything and briefly explained his encounter with Alfred and how Alfred had handed over the trouble to him.
"It seems my teacher's condition isn't very good... Hmm, judging by your expression, what I said doesn't seem to be right."
Lucrezia was about to sigh, but seeing Liens shake his head, she couldn't help but look at him in confusion; according to him, Alfred's severely injured state should not have recovered.
"The Sword Saint's severe injuries have indeed not fully recovered, but that doesn't prevent him from becoming more dangerous."
"Although I haven't fought him, facing him, I found that his connection to the world has deepened. He might have gained sothing from ; he is now perhaps only one step away from Legend."
"This is also the main reason he is unwilling to act."
"Other matters aside, 'corruption' is too unknown. He doesn't want to be blocked at the final critical mont by such an unknown power."
Liens explained.
"I see, he has reached the final step then... Do you have confidence?"
Lucrezia looked at Liens seriously. She knew that Liens and Alfred were destined to have a battle that would determine both their fates.
"Do my best, and leave the rest to fate."
Liens did not loudly declare that he would defy fate and ultimately defeat Alfred; he rely calmly stated that he would do his utmost.
"Leave it to fate? 'Fate' is unfathomable, who can know its thoughts?"
"In any case, I hope you are the one standing at the end, otherwise I'll have to create a doll with your exact likeness to alleviate my loneliness."
As she spoke, Lucrezia revealed an expression of a resentful wife in her boudoir, reaching her hand under her clothes and then showing Liens a glistening liquid on her fingertips.
Instantly, the serious atmosphere was shattered by Lucrezia's actions.
Liens looked at what Lucrezia was showing him, montarily speechless, not knowing how to respond.
