[Ding! Ding! Quest Completed: Eating from the Sa Plate.]
He looked at her in shock, and deia was more shocked than he was.
She had imagined sharing a al with Lucian, but in a romantic way! Not shoving a spoonful of beans into his mouth and making him almost choke.

[New Romance Quest: Kissed on the lips by Lucian (Grade-A)]
[Ti-Limited: 7 days]
deia would have scread out loud if she hadn’t pinched her hand. Was the system dumb or what? The last quest was Grade-E, but it suddenly rose into Grade-A.
Also, what the hell did "kiss on the lips" an?!
[It literally ans kiss on the lips, Host!]
[Didn’t you want him to kiss you earlier?]
’Yes, but not so soon! We just got into the cuddling phase and you already think he’s going to kiss ?!’
Lucian was an integrity man with a pure mind. Therefore, deia wouldn’t expect him to kiss her out of the blue.
However, she couldn’t think about it any further when she heard Lucian coughing several tis. She imdiately grabbed an empty glass from the table and filled it with water.
"I’m sorry. I’m so sorry." She helped him drink, then patted him on the back. "Here you go. Drink slowly."
Lucian let out a sigh of relief as the beans moved down his throat.
Before he could say anything, deia had already given him an excuse, "You expended a lot of energy earlier, so I thought you needed more food!"
Did that excuse sound good enough?
deia wasn’t sure, but it was better than having to say that a crazy system had forced her to complete a quest.
"And can I ask you a question? What happened to Orlon?" asked deia to change the subject.
Lucian still didn’t understand what was going on in her head, but he eventually followed her conversation.
"Orlon is in the dungeon." Lucian explained, "He wound up pretty badly so I don’t think he can escape."
Dungeon?
This freaking military base had a dungeon? Were they in the dieval era or what?
"Did you beat him up?"
Lucian smiled. "As much as I wanted to torture him, I’m not the one who did it."
After deia had lost consciousness, Tian had taken Orlon and Eddie to the dungeon. However, he found many disturbing things down there.
"This is not only a military base, but also an experintal laboratory." Lucian’s face darkened. "They kidnapped people and turned them into lab rats."
Orlon had collected the remains of the surviving doctors, mostly surgeons. He asked them to perform many experints on mutants who had beco the Lost or were still conscious.
Lucian did not yet know Orlon’s purpose for performing those unorthodox experints, but he was certain that it was more than just a scientific or dical purpose.
"We can’t ask him about it yet, because he still lost consciousness after Tian beat him so badly."
deia raised her eyebrows. "Tian? What’s wrong with him?"
Tian had always acted grumpy and an, but deia had never seen him go on a rampage like that because he didn’t want to cause trouble.
"Eddie sent Ren sowhere. That’s why he forced Orlon to disable Eddie’s ability for a while so he could ask him where Ren is." Lucian sighed. "But Orlon pretended to deactivate Eddie’s ability, giving him a chance to escape."
deia tried to digest the information for a while before she asked, "But Eddie didn’t take Orlon with him?"
"When Tian realized sothing was wrong, he imdiately pulled him away from Eddie, so he couldn’t leave," Lucian said, "Since then, he won’t stop using Orlon as a punching bag if only Harry didn’t calm him down."
Although Tian often scolded his brother every day and used the word ’stupid’ to describe his brother at every opportunity, no one could deny that he had always protected Ren and would do anything to save his brother.
His brother was a bit foolish and reckless, so Tian had to learn to be smart and responsible in order to survive with him.
Now that Ren was gone, Tian suddenly lost his ability to think and couldn’t stop destroying things around the base. He had been protecting his brother for years since their parents died, if sothing happened to Ren, Tian might not be able to stay sane.
However, that was the perfect situation for deia.
From the beginning, it was hard to gain Tian’s trust and loyalty to her. The only thing that made Tian follow her orders was that he didn’t want Ren to take the dangerous jobs.
If deia was willing to help him, he might be her loyal dog in the future.
After all, Tian was a great asset to the base, so deia had to do her best to preserve him. Besides, deia also wanted to get more points from the system by helping her companion.
But honestly, she just wanted to impress Lucian.
’Can I use the mystical compass to find Ren?’ deia asked the system.
[Unfortunately, no, host. The Mystical Compass can only show you the route to where you want to go, not track soone’s whereabouts.]
Back then, Lucian used the mystical compass to find her because he already knew where she was. Therefore, the Mystic Compass was useless in Ren’s case if they did not know his location.
But deia wasn’t going to give up just like that. She had to try her best to srize Lucian so much that he wanted to kiss her.
’What a pity ... I’m very worried about Ren and I don’t want Tian to go crazy if his brother dies.’
’Please help find him. I want to beco a better person, just like you want to be.’
[Host, finally you believe in the system’s words that everyone can learn to beco a better person!]
[The system feels touched.]
What touch? It was just a machine without a heart, so how co it had the ability to feel sothing?
[The system will give you free valuable information as a gift!]
deia was surprised because she didn’t expect the system to give her valuable information for free. It seed that deia should start to stop insulting that annoying system so that it could continue to give her gifts.
[You can’t use the mystical compass to find soone unless you upgrade it to Grade-SSS ]
