The Villain’s Cheat Code: When a Gamer Becomes the Evil God’s Sidekick Chapter 423: Finally Legal

After changing back into her nightgown, Lia curled up on the bed, carefully wrapping herself tightly in the blanket.

One hand gently covered her face, her entire head buried in the thick bedding, her cheeks tinged with a faint blush.

On one side of the room was a large glass window.

The delicate curtains fell gently, subtly blocking the light from outside, giving the room a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

Entering from the door, to the left was a soft sofa.

Viktor sat on the sofa, lazily leaning against its back.

His black coat fell casually to the floor as he gazed deeply at Lia, whose face was buried in the blanket.

Lia slowly raised her head, peeking through her fingers, the shy blush on her cheeks becoming more obvious.

Viktor looked at her, about to open his mouth to say sothing, but was interrupted by a calm voice:

"Don't speak yet."

Viktor decisively closed his mouth, silently becoming a listener.

Lia still covered her face, remaining silent.

Her gaze fell blankly on a corner of the room, ignoring Viktor.

She had many things she wanted to say, but couldn't express any of them.

She closed her eyes, but her mind was blank, unable to concentrate.

Yes, think about sothing else, like how many assets the Kravina territory still had...

No, it wasn't working at all. Her mind was in chaos, unable to recall anything.

The scene of Viktor suddenly appearing behind her earlier was deeply etched in her mory like a brand.

No matter what she tried to think about, those fragnted scenes kept flashing in her mind.

She wondered if Viktor's appearance was too much of a coincidence.

How did Viktor happen to appear just when she was changing clothes?

The more Lia thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt.

And she also recalled Viktor's initial explanation:

"So you're trying to tell that a high-level mage capable of teleportation was actually swallowed by a treasure chest, and then coincidentally appeared in the scene where his sister was changing clothes, is that right?"

Viktor calmly nodded.

Lia took a deep breath, raised her head, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

After noticing Viktor, the first thing she did wasn't to scream or shout.

She was even thinking about the consequences for him.

If the news that Viktor had peeped at his sister changing clothes got out.

What a serious impact it would have on Viktor's reputation and the entire Kravina family.

Therefore, Lia wisely chose to remain silent.

In the end, rationality triumphed over instinct.

But as she gradually cald down, a sense of sha began to well up in her heart.

She finally realized the fact that she had been seen naked.

And this person was her brother.

Viktor Kravina.

The original rationality was gradually collapsing, at least for now.

Sha was gradually taking over her heart again.

The Kravina family's upbringing was very strict, especially regarding education between n and won.

From a young age, her father and the servants constantly reminded and educated her.

To maintain an appropriate distance from the opposite sex, even close family mbers were no exception.

Although young Lia always clung to Viktor, calling him "brother, brother," the family's educational principles were always firmly rembered.

lodramatic scenarios like bathing with her brother or sleeping in the sa bed since childhood were impossible.

Under the long-term influence of education, 'only revealing yourself completely to your future lover' was a concept instilled in Lia's mind from childhood.

Although she had never t anyone who could make her heart flutter from childhood to adulthood.

After all, with an overly excellent brother above her, it was harder for peers to catch her eye.

However now, this concept of hers was beginning to collapse.

Like the foundation of a towering building being dismantled by an earthquake, countless pieces of rubble and rocks fell to the ground, raising dust thousands of feet high.

After all, what had happened had happened. Lia, who originally had no intention of marrying, now couldn't get married even more.

In any sense.

"Heh... haha."

Being seen naked by her brother in such a dramatic way was sothing Lia couldn't accept.

And it was even her own doing.

Thinking the treasure chest might be her father's relic, she had Helnersen move it to her bedroom.

But who could have imagined that Viktor would jump out of the chest?

So that's what Cocotte ant when she said "there's sothing wrong with the chest."

Had she known it would be like this, she should have listened to Cocotte and left the chest in the living room.

If not there, outside the mansion would have been fine too.

Emotions surged up all at once, rushing straight to Lia's brain.

Her eyes were hollow and blank, dry laughter coming from her throat in waves, extrely helpless.

She lowered her head, looked at Viktor, her sowhat blank expression even gradually breaking down.

"So, why did you co out of that treasure chest?"

"That was from father's tomb..."

Hearing Lia's question, Viktor raised his eyes to et Lia's sowhat eerie gaze.

He sighed, and his calm voice slowly sounded:

"To verify so things."

"And incidentally, to bring out what he had hidden in the tomb."

Lia froze on the bed, the look in her hollow eyes seed to pass through Viktor, looking sowhere far, far away.

"So... things?"

Viktor looked at the confused and dazed Lia, and thought for a mont.

He initially wanted to find so excuse to brush her off, but after thinking about it.

He decided to tell the truth:

"Soone told that the Kravina family is a cursed family."

"So I asked Helnersen to take to that cetery."

And the final verification result was that what Mac Ream said was indeed true.

Although he hadn't been able to find Tisnato's body in the cetery, there was a road leading to the gates of hell hidden in that tomb,

As well as that crimson armor.

The Hellfire General belonged to the sa system as the four generals of the Star Empire.

But they were completely different.

If the Star Empire was the gods residing in the high heavens, actively sending down stars to bring blessings to those powerful generals.

Then this Hellfire General was a fallen person who gained power under the baptism of the underworld.

This Hellfire General was also the ancestor of the Kravina family.

Under the curse of hell, the Kravina bloodline could not produce mages.

Because there were no mages in the underworld.

These things were well understood by Viktor, who had once speed-run through the underworld.

He was just curious about how the Mirror Demon knew about this.

And also... if the forr family head Tisnato hadn't passed away, where was he now?

But these were just speculative traces.

Viktor's words left Lia sowhat stunned, her gaze gradually shifting from hollow to clouded with confusion.

But at the sa ti, she had almost forgotten the embarrassing incident of being seen naked by Viktor earlier.

"...Cursed? What do you an?"

Viktor looked at Lia, as if reminding her, and said lightly:

"If you look through the Kravina family genealogy, you'll find that none of the Kravina ancestors were mages."

Hearing Viktor's words, Lia paused.

She did indeed have the Kravina family genealogy in her possession.

But she had hardly ever looked at it carefully.

Although mages have only beco popular in the last few hundred years.

Because the establishnt of the Mage Council brought many mages hidden in the world into the public eye.

Letting many people understand the profession of mage.

But indeed, it seed that in their Kravina family, only Viktor's generation had produced a mage.

But what did Viktor an?

A flash of inspiration struck Lia's mind, as if she had thought of sothing.

But she couldn't be sure, and she didn't dare to be sure.

But then, Viktor's words made her suddenly freeze.

"Because this is our family's curse."

Viktor slowly stood up, lowered his head, and looked at Lia:

"The Kravina bloodline is destined to never beco mages."

These words left Lia frozen on the bed.

She blinked, staring blankly at Viktor.

Her originally chaotic mind beca even more chaotic.

However, before she could fully react, Viktor had already walked to the door.

He didn't turn around, only a calm sentence sounded in Lia's ears.

"Although you brought the chest in, I am also at fault."

"When you've cald down and thought it through, we can continue our conversation."

A pale breeze gently blew, pushing open the bedroom door.

It also blew up Viktor's black coat.

His steps were light, leaving without making a sound.

The pale breeze gradually dissipated, but the end of the breeze seed to extend an invisible arm, gently closing the door.

Lia watched as the door closed again, but seed sowhat at a loss.

There were words stuck in her throat, but she couldn't speak.

Thump... thump.

Lia slowly placed one hand on her chest, feeling the pulsing beats.

Her heart was racing, probably even faster than before.

Her brain was even more chaotic now, too chaotic to process any information.

What did Viktor just say?

'Developing nicely?'

No, no, that's not right, why would I think of that.

Feeling her body heating up, she reached out to touch her cheeks.

Very hot, even giving the illusion of having a fever.

Oh no, she was blushing terribly.

So hot, still burning.

Is there a mirror, I need a mirror...

Lia lowered her head, touching her burning forehead, her eyes wide.

The tender look in her eyes seed as if water could drip from them.

She murmured softly:

"The Kravina bloodline cannot beco mages..."

"Cannot beco mages..."

"Then..."

In that mind too chaotic to think about anything, only one point seed particularly clear.

"Viktor... is a mage."

She raised her head again, looking at the door through which Viktor had left, and pressed her lips together.

The window had been blown open by the breeze at so unknown ti.

A breeze brushed past her ear, giving her a slight coolness.

But her pounding heart even overca the slight whistle of the breeze.

Lia breathed in the hot air, exhaling the complexity in her heart.

Yet she could no longer hear clearly the few unsteady beats in her heart.
