Help! I don't want to NTR the protagonist!

30 30. Amulet of the High King

"There's nothing too special about this from my memory. From what I know it's just an old ancestral ornament that was passed down to me from my father. Apparently, it's been passed down from the ancestors of my clan for hundreds of years, but all these years I've had it, it's been nothing special. I just keep it as a memento since it's the only thing I took when I ran away to become a bandit."

Hearing this, Lucius's attention was drawn to something else

"Oh? So what made you become a bandit in the first place?"

Lucius was a little interested, after all with Reina's talent; if she just joined a few legal organisations she would easily have been able to rise through the ranks and advance in realms quickly. She may have even been a first class fighter right now, seeking the ever elusive path to the master realm.

Remembering those past events Reina just sighed.

"The whole sequence of events was nothing too special. Back when I was still just living in my village, a young nobleman seemed to have set his eyes on me. Fortunately, my father was a strong fighter at the peak of second class and in his rage state even first class fighters would have to show him some respect. Unfortunately, my father had always been sick so after my mother died it didn't take long before he passed away as well. Back then I had only tuned 16 so my father just started training me as well. Noticing my father's death, the young noble came to my house and tried to force me."

"So what did you do next?"

"Naturally I didn't let him off, even though I wasn't a fighter I could still enter a rage state. I smashed his little brother and cut off his legs, turning him into a paraplegic!"

"Hiss! So ruthless!" Commented Lucius, feeling a slight chill.

Even at 16 this woman was still so merciless!

Hearing Lucius's remarks, even Reina slightly nodded her head.

"Sigh! I also admit that I may have been a bit too ruthless at that time. Who would have thought that the nobleman was the son of a rather powerful viscount? At that point I had to abandon everything and flee across the empire making a small living as a wandering mercenary, not daring to show my face or stay for too long until I just grew tired of it all and settled in this small mountain as a mountain bandit. I thought I would peacefully waste away the rest of my days. Who would have thought I would be so unlucky as to meet a little devil like you." Lamented Reina

"Humph! You say this, but I know you're secretly happy. After all, without me, how could you 'break through your limits'"

As she heard this, Reina cursed as a blush appeared on her cheeks

"As if I would be happy about that you little scoundrel!"

LP+20

Regardless of What Reina said, the notification and blush on her cheeks betrayed her true feelings.

Lucius didn't want to expose her and just chuckled.

"Even though you say this, I'm still a little surprised. With your personality I thought you wouldn't mind becoming the woman of a noble. You jumped into my hands so happily after all."

As Reina heard this she just snorted coldly.

"What sort of woman do you take me for!? Remember this little boy, I only became your woman so easily because my life was on the line normally I'm not so easy. Besides that noble couldn't be compared to you" explained Reina

"How come?" Asked Lucius

"He was so fucking ugly!" Cried Reina.

"He looked like the offspring of some mutant or the creation of a crazy dark wizard like some hybrid between frog and pig! He was so ugly I nearly wretched! I don't know what sins his father committed to have such an ugly child. Such an ugly bastard could only be born as a curse for his despicable nature!"

As Lucius heard Reina roll off a list of vicious curses and insults, his mouth nearly dropped to the floor.

It could still be seen that her hatred for that noble family ran deep even after all these years

But that was to be expected. They were the ones that ruined her life and forced her to live as a bandit in the middle of bumfuck nowhere.

Hearing her speak like this, Lucius couldn't help but sigh.

Even in another world where strength speaks, looks were still everything.

Lucius subconsciously touched his face and felt secretly happy.

Even if he cursed that despicable god behind his back, he still had to thank him for giving him a high class face.

Even if his whole revolutionary thing failed, at least he could make a living as a gigolo for some rich noblewoman.

Lucius looked at the amulet and even if he knew the abilities of the amulet from the novel, he couldn't remember them specifically.

It would be great if he had some talent that could identify these items directly and save him all the hassle. It's just unfortunate...

Lucius quickly slapped his head before he could contour that rain of thought.

Who was he? He had a store that was waiting for him and now that he just made a big return he wouldn't hesitate to spend.

Lucius didn't waste any time and quickly looked through the panel for anything that would satisfy his requirements and he quickly caught sight of something that got him hooked.
