Although Lucius said this, his hands were clearly somewhat pleased and once again began to explore Reina's body, just like before.

"Well, since you say you don't regret it, then I'll have to put you to work," said Lucius.

"I can't tell you much about everything, but I'm going to the capital and joining The Sanctuary. Naturally, as the leader of the revolutionary army, I can't take a large force with me. At the same time, it's impossible to stay in the capital without a force to do something for me," said Lucius.

"Although we have forces in the capital, I can't use any of them. The capital is the home ground of the empire, and no matter how secret we try to be, using the revolutionary forces could leave traces or at least make people investigating seem very suspicious."

This was a vital detail.

Going to The Sanctuary, Lucius would inevitably get involved with the heroines, many of whom were of extremely high standing. The people around them would investigate Lucius's traces, and if he used any of the revolutionary forces entrenched in the capital, it could be catastrophic.

Additionally, some of the heroines were incredibly effective at investigating the protagonist. If he used the revolutionary forces, they would easily catch on that something was amiss.

"Reina, what I need you to do is enter the capital and take over some small gangs to form a faction for me. It doesn't need to be something too big, just a faction large enough that it would be convenient for me to carry out a few larger-scale actions without too much hassle. Besides, I won't treat you too badly either. I will help you get stronger."

As soon as Reina heard this, her whole body felt hot.

Strength!

The barbarian blood inside her was boiling. By instinct alone, she had a great yearning for strength, and coupled with her life growing up from the very bottom, her desire for strength was even more intense.

"You lack systematic training and teaching, yet even with this, you've reached the level of a 3rd-class fighter through sheer talent and bloodline alone. Within a few months, I'm sure you could break into the ranks of a 2nd-class fighter even without my help. But with my assistance, reaching the rank of 1st-class fighter would be easy for you. Even ranks such as Master Fighter are within reach, as long as you work hard."

Now Reina could barely contain the excitement on her face.

Lucius knew not only how to bring her immense pleasure but was also promising to greatly increase her strength. Even though she had given him her body out of desperation, the more she looked at it, the more she thought that her choice wasn't so bad after all.

But before Reina could get too excited, Lucius's next words came down on her like a bucket of cold water.

"But this doesn't come without a cost."

"Right now, I'm not asking you to be my woman. I'm not even asking you to serve the revolutionary army. What I'm asking is for you to be loyal to me and me alone."

As Lucius spoke, an imposing aura radiated from him, making Reina understand the weight of his words.

"So, Miss Reina, the choice is all yours. Are you willing to serve me?" asked Lucius.

"I am willing!" replied Reina without much hesitation.

As if confirming Reina's decision, Lucius heard a notification go off in his head:

**Favorability +300**

Seeing this, Lucius couldn't help but smile.

Others might not know when to trust someone's words, but with the help of the system, he wouldn't be easily deceived.

Thinking this, Lucius took a quick look at Reina's status panel:

**Heroine: Reina**

- **Age:** 27

- **Race:** Half-barbarian

- **Affiliation:** Revolutionary Army

- **Strength:** 18

- **Agility:** 14

- **Stamina:** 17

- **Mana:** 13

- **Will:** 15

**Talents & Traits:**

- Barbaric Strength (Passive/Bloodline Ability)

- Rage! (Active/Bloodline Ability)

- Axe Master (Passive Effect)

- Scheming

- Hot-blooded

**Favorability:** 40 (Like)

Last time he saw her status panel, her favorability was at -30. The jump to 40 was still a mind-boggling increase.

From the status panel, he could still see that Reina's scheming nature meant her words shouldn't be completely trusted. She was spouting sweet words about being his woman and in love, but with a favorability of only 40, she wasn't truly in love.

In truth, this wasn't a problem. Her favorability had reached the point where it was highly unlikely for her to betray him. Besides, even if she did betray him, who would she turn to? The Demons? The Empire?

Strictly speaking, she had already betrayed both forces, so she could never join smoothly.

Additionally, they had only spent one night together. Although it was an extremely amazing night for her, it was still not enough to turn her into a love fool.

Reina wasn't a naive, innocent girl who hadn't experienced the world. She was a bandit who had seen the ugliness of society.

To get her to truly fall in love, it would take more than just food, sex, and some sweet words. It would require time to cultivate genuine feelings.

Still, Lucius was a bit dissatisfied and lightly pinched her nipples, causing her to moan again.

Besides increasing Reina's favorability with him, his true gain from yesterday was the significant increase in his love points.

Throughout the entire experience, his love points had soared. It showed that sex was definitely one of the best ways to increase love points.

Unfortunately, after the first time he had sex with Reina, the gain in love points from subsequent encounters had dropped significantly.
