Chapter 41 41. New Protaganist?
"What happened Alex?"
Grace woke up because of Alex's surprised voice and asked worriedly.
"Nothing, It...It was just a bad dream. You go back to sleep."
Alex forcefully calmed himself down, He made a simple excuse and asked Grace to go back to sleep, Although her physique is enhanced but there is still the mental fatigue of the past few days, She needed her deserved rest.
"Ohh, It was just a bad dream, Are you okay now?"
Grace's worry was dismissed hearing it was just a bad dream. She looked up from his arms and smiled sweetly.
'It was not a dream.'
She thought to herself, She was feeling unreal before, Thinking about all that happened was just her dream but now seeing him here, She confirmed. It was not a dream. He was really here, Which means they also did those things.
*Giggle*
A lovely giggle of joy was uttered by her as she tightened her embrace on him and cuddled in his arms before closing her eyes and falling asleep.
'System Speak, Where the fuck new protagonist come from?'
If it was before Alex should have teased Grace but now he didn't have the mood to do it, All his attention was on this notification sent by the system.
He knows there are other protagonists but weren't they supposed to come out when the original protagonist of this world, Nathen, died? So how come there is this new one?
'Is Nathen get killed off or what?'
Alex couldn't help but think about it. It sounds impossible for this to happen to the protagonist but maybe his action created a butterfly effect. On top of that, he also lost his 1000 luck before weakening his protagonist halo.
And there is no brain-dead halo too, So if the protagonist provoked someone terrible, There is a chance that he just burped and reincarnated somewhere.
[Nathen is well...At least he is alive. The reason the new protagonist pop-up is that Nathen loses his luck. Heavenly will should have detected the changes in the plot and taken this major decision to keep up with changes.]
The system jumps out and replays to him.
'So Nathen is alive huh!? Wait! Didn't this mean heavenly will also detect and knows about me? Shouldn't Villain Halo prevent that from happening?"
Alex sighed in relief, Nathen is alive. He will be too sad if that guy dipped out without tasting his own medicine. After all, A good bro must lead his other bro on the right path. He wanted to do this all because of Nathen's own good.
But then he became confused. His Villain Halo also has the effect of hiding him from the heavenly will, But now the system says that the heavenly will detected him, Doesn't that mean that it knows his existence?
If that's the case, The threat level of this world turns up a notch. He was in no place to compete with a heavenly will at this moment, So he had to kill off Nathan in one move but he was reluctant to do this, At least not before letting him taste what despair tastes like.
[Ding! No host it's actually exactly the opposite, Heavenly will only feel changes in this world, But it couldn't sense the reason why there were these changes. This never happens as the heavenly will is nearly omniscient power in this world.
This is the reason why the new protagonist pop-up to sniff out the cause of it.]
A system like always didn't mind explaining things to him as long as it was not core sensitive information about that capped by Alex's system level.
'So that's why, So I don't have to worry too much but have to be cautious, Right?'
Alex understands why the new protagonist pop-up. This is protecting the majesty of the world and insurance for Nathen, The protagonist of this world.
That's why other than giving Nathen some OP opportunities, It activated another protagonist. This way the thing that causes changes Which means he will target new protagonists and give time to Nathen for growing into invincible existence, This new protagonist bait lay for him.
But unfortunately, It didn't know this not only works against the protagonist but it's also very beneficial for him.
Now there is a new protagonist means new opportunities, Nathen's opportunities were pretty much useless to him, But maybe this new protagonist brings some surprise.
'System, Tell me an estimated time for this new protagonist to reach me.'
Alex then asked a very important question for his plan against the protagonists. As Villain, he should definitely be targeted by the "Hero" of this world.
So it's not a question of if the protagonist targets him but when.
[Ding! According to current data, The estimated time is 15 days but take note this time is not accurate as changes in the world might cause him to appear early.]
The system actually also can be called a nigh-Omniscient thing, So it's not hard to calculate the estimated time of a new protagonist. If he upgraded it further, It might also do more things.
'Mhmm.15 days huh, Well it's more than enough time to be fully prepared, Also can I buy a novel plot of that protagonist?'
For Alex, 15 days is enough time to become strong. Didn't he just in one day become awakened with the SS-Rank superpower? So 15 days are overkill for him, Who has a broken thing called the system.
Now he just wanted to know the plot of that protagonist novel, Knowing yourself and your enemy will win every battle. So it's very necessary to know more about this new protagonist, So there will not be some unexpected events.
[Ding! You can buy everything in the system mall host, The plot of this new protagonist will also be available just for a mere 200,000 RP.]
A system like a salesman boosted itself before mentioning the price of the product.
'What!!? 200,000 RP? The system that's too much, Don't you think?'
Alex was shocked by the price, Although now he has nearly 400,000 RP because of his video going viral and the points he received from Alia spending his half worth in one go is really hard to bear for him.
[Ding! Host this is a discounted price, Don't forget knowing the plot is equivalent to opening the god perspective, For that this price is not that much.]
The system didn't want Alex to be misunderstood, So it tells the reason.
This price is really not that much considering its actual use value. Knowing the future for someone like Alex, It's really a deadly weapon to use against the protagonist.
'Well... then buy it.'
Alex was embarrassed. He did know the meaning of knowing the plot. That's the reason he even asked for that in the first place. It was just that hearing that high price, He lost his cool.
But now that he looks at it, 200,000 RP does not sound that much. By knowing the plot he is able to gain more than double of that value in no time.
[Ding! The plot of the "Hidden mighty little brother of the cold president" is transferred into the host's mind.]
The system voice fell and all the plot of the novel appeared in the mind of Alex. He can just think about it and the plot of it pop-up in his mind like opening a book.
'Mumm, I didn't know there was this little brother of my demoness. This story is getting interesting."
Alex rubs his chin, Thinking about this plot. It's news to him that there was a little brother of Alia. In the novel plot of Nathen, It's not mentioned at all.
If he didn't interfere then this Jake guy should not even be able to appear in front of Alia and she should have joined in the harem of Nathen.
Because it turns out that Alia is also the main heroine of this Jake guy's novel, So two protagonists can't share one heroine but now that story is changed.
This also means that Alia lost her position as the main heroine of Nathen's novel, and became main heroine in Jake's. Which is also reasonable after all, This Nathen guy only includes virgins in his harem, Others are just playthings of his, and with Alia's personality and luck, It was impossible for that to happen.
This Jake guy is also interesting. He is a proper man of culture, Only interested in married or mature women. In normal words, he was into Milf's and putting a green hat on others.
'What a disgusting person, How can someone want to steal another man's woman? I have a righteous young man stop this evil man's claw from hurting others
Pfft- Just kidding, I don't like competition that's all.'
Alex tried acting as that self-righteous protagonist but he wasn't able to. He just doesn't want others, especially the protagonist with abilities and the blessing of luck to compete with him. That's all of it. He was not afraid or ashamed to admit it.
'Now should I go to Madam Miller or wait for the right moment?'
After he got the plot of Jake's novel, He also understood that Madam Miller became the heroine in his novel. After all, Nathen includes a virgin in his harem, So Madam Miller should not be in harem, and as the law of the wishfulfillment novels, If mother and son are not related by blood then they will be 101 percent chance that they are going to fuck.
The reason Alex wanted to wait is that, In the plot, there are some OP things Jake pulled out that "cured" Madam Miller completely. As his body was not as strong as Nathen, He will never be able to handle the Lust Fairy body. So this is the cheat he was given by the world against it.
[Ding! World choice is detected...
The selection function is triggered...

• [1] As a villain how could you bear to wait of protagonist for you steal heroin?

Task : Just go back to sleeping with Grace
Reward: Grace will be half frozen, Alia's heart once again completely frozen, and will never be able to melt again.]
'Huh? Huh!?? HUH!???'
Alex was surprised that system options were triggered but what made him petrified is the last option reward.
He always looks at the last options for the reason that it gives a glimpse of what is going to happen in the future.
Knowing that part it's not hard to guess what will happen if he goes back to sleep with Grace now. Alia will surely come barging into this room.
Alex looked at the current appearance of their, Both at this time were completely naked and were in each other's embrace, This room also filled with the smell of lust.
Not to mention Alia, Even if it was someone sane-minded person, They will lose their shit seeing this scene of their lover, So it's not hard to guess what Alia will do when she sees them in this state.
'System, Choose 1st and 2nd option.'
Alex slowly breaks free from Grace's embrace and covers her in blankets before walking around the room, Grabbing his scattered clothes then he hop in the shower.
While he was doing that, He chose the first and second options. Although he wanted to wait until Jake took out that OP thing but reward of these options is too tempting, especially the 2nd one.
He urgently needed that reward, So he didn't have to worry about finding that his woman's started a deadly battle royal between themselves.
So it was a sound difficult task but he had to do it. If not he would lose his basket and eggs at the same time, He will do something about to get that OP thing from Jake.
As for the 1st option, He chose it because it was very compatible with the 2nd option. If he didn't choose it would be a waste of opportunity, Plus it's name was quite tempting.
*Pitter-patter*
Alex started to take a shower and washed his body thoroughly. He can't have a weird smell on his body, Or Alia will go berserk.
'System buy me some clothes, shoes, and good cologne'
As he was ready to come out, He asked the system to buy this things, His shirt was drenched with the love juice of Grace, While his shoes he gave to poor Nathen to fulfill that guys fetish, So he didn't have shoes, He was walking around in shoes in Grace waiting room, Might be provided by the hospital.
They are comfy but they didn't suit him, But who asked Alex to have this big heart, and that he took pity on Nathen.
As for cologne? It was for extra measure, As Alia is an awakened person, Her five sense is also very strong, Even after washing herself, She might able to smell little remaining time on him.
"Sleep well Grace, I will come back later at night, Okay?"
After he puts on clothes, wears shoes, and sprays cologne on himself, Then comes to sleep with Grace and whispers to her.
"Humm."
Grace lazily in halfalsleep state replied as she stretched her body in a blanket and turned her face towards him.
*Chuckle* *Kiss*
Alex knew what she wanted. He laughed at her childish antics and planted a kiss on her forehead. This brought out her beautiful smile, Which was very beautiful as the moon came out from behind the clouds.
He saw that smile and had the urge to not leave by her side but well he had to, If not this room turns into a bloody battlefield .
...
'I will surprise you, Hehe~'
Alia stood in the elevator and pressed floor number 3, While she had time she gave a little touch-up to her makeup.
Normally she doesn't wear makeup but today she did. Not only that, but she was also giggling on her own from time to time.
She felt like she was going insane but the thought of seeing Alex again made her heart bubbly. She never felt this, So she this was a very unreal feeling to her.
*Ding*
Soon the elevator stopped at the 3rd floor and the door opened. She was ready to walk out of the elevator but halted her moments, Seeing a person standing in front of her.
(A/N : Well I fell asleep last night, So couldn't able to write it, That's why late update, My bad 😅
Like always thank you for reading and have a good day �.)
