'Old weakness of Female lead, being too emotional.'
Alex smirked in his heart hearing the sound of the system. It's really too easy to manipulate female leads, as they are meant to be "perfect" women.
Yeah, authors always try to make them "perfect" or "Ideal" women who can't do anything wrong or bad and if they did then it was the fault of the world not hers, She is a pure kind-hearted woman.
Yes, even if she forces another man to marry her, She did nothing wrong. It was the man's fault who did not love his oppressor, As they have inherent diseases of victimhood.
In their eyes the whole world is against them, Only they suffer the most, others are just evil, Not that they have valid reasons to hate her.
But because of that, Alex loves these types as they are very easy targets to tame. Their strongest trait is their biggest weakness.
He did not even have to think much to make FL fall for him, like right now, In just one conversation he pretty much conquered her heart.
Though Sandra is not like those entitled Female leads thanks to the reverse world laws, She still follows that default route of FL, So Alex had to fix only one thing which is the monogamous nature of FL.
Females lead hate or even disgust if their man was even in contact with another woman, As most of the time ML is a virgin and had no prior relationship, Also he had to reject other women no matter how beautiful they are just for FL.
As true to that nature, He saw the disgust that appeared on her face when he mentioned another woman. Even for him, there was disgust on her face, but he who was prepared quickly resolved it.
Now that he pushed down her bottom line, He can push as much as he wants. After all, now that she changed her mind, it will not take much to lower even more.
"After that it was obvious, I left her and as retaliation, she blocked all my way to earning enough to feed myself thinking it will force me back to her, But I was adamant that I would rather die hungry than to go back to her.
I decided to take away the thing she most desire, Just like she takes away my love for her, I know she is obsessed with "purity" thing, *Scoff* If I was not "pure" she would lose interest in me, I didn't care about anything anymore, I had nothing to lose.
So I did it, I tainted my body, and became a broken shoe in those internet people's words. Look at the irony, I protected myself all that time for her, and yet I gave up myself just to get away from her.
I was sad-No I was broken from body to soul, A shell left of my past self, But I was glad I will get away from her, Not because I hate her, Far from it, I know love in my heart for her was so immense that if I meet her again, I will have forgiven her.
This was a step of mine to get away from her. I loved her, and wanted her, but I can't lose my self-respect, My free will, For which I sacrificed everything for her. Now she will hate me, despise me, or so I thought.
Well, it turns out her obsession was bigger than her hate for me, She still did not let me be, So the cycle began, I already tainted myself 1 time, Which did not have much effect on her, So I did it again to surpass her obsession for me with her hate for me.
I didn't know when 1st time turns into 2nd then 3rd and so on, At one point I even forgot why I doing it but every time I did it, I even forgot about the pain, I was feeling alive again, unlike before I'm enjoying doing with others, It was not disgusting as before, Which was become the only source of my happiness, My love for her also decreased *Sigh* Or I thought so.
One day I saw her and realised no I did not forget her. There are feelings in me for her, Same as before but now there was an additional emotion of hate, Other than she hated me, I hated her, and I blame her for my actions.
I know this is a cowardly thing to do, but it was easier to believe someone else was responsible for my descend than to accept it was all my fault, So I did that, Which became the regret of my life.
So take this suggestion from the man who walked on the same path as you are walking on, give up, This path only leads to hatred and self-loathing.
Go to him, Anyway, it was a little sacrifice of dignity, But at least you can walk in the world with heads up, Rather than taunted by every 2nd hillbilly, I don't say it, but it hurts, It re-dig those wounds I try to forget about.
So Sandra, take this suggestion and give up. It was good for both of you."
Alex finally finished speaking. He did not know if he ever spoke so much at one time, but Sandra also did not disturb him, as she was looking for a glimpse of the light of Alex's success.
She too was on the way to doing what he did. She wanted to hear the good news that everything will work out eventually or at least get words of encouragement from him, but all she got was a hopeless future.
He even said to accept that man, How can she accept him? Not only is he extremely possessive but also did not love her at all, Even if she is a woman she is not an animal, Who sees the man she can't hold herself back.
She wanted an emotional connection, A true love or at least an illusion of it, which seems impossible with Dick.
Even now he was coming after her because she hurt his ego by divorcing him, His obsession brought him here not love.
"In your suggestion what will work on him?"
Sandra hardened her heart and asked Alex in a determined voice, So what if this path will be hard? A man can walk past, then why can't she?
She agrees with what Alex said, She rather ruins her life herself than to give up her free will and let others do it for her.
Even if she will fall into the abyss, It will be because of her actions, She will be happy as she is the one who is responsible for it.
She looked at Alex, amazed by how quickly he solved the problem which she was struggling with for a year. She also felt pity that this pure soul of a man had to go through all that. Now there was a special place in her heart for him.
She did not know what that place meant, but she knows he is special to her.
That's why she was comfortable asking him about the solution to not having the slightest idea that she had already fallen into Alex's hand.
"Sandra listen don't do this, He looks rich, You will have a luxurious comfortable life if you-
"I don't think your "her" was any less rich, Then why did you not choose to be with her?"
Alex again "tried" to change her mind, but it only makes Sandra even firmer in her decision. She spoke cutting Alex's sentence midway, asking him a question in return.
"Touché, But Sandra, are you sure there is no turning back from this? You will only fall deeper and deeper."
Alex said in a concerned voice, while making sure that Dick was not looking at them, He was so close to totally conquering her, He did not want any disturbance to ruin it.
Though he already told Xiao Bad to create a low-grade illusion around him through his connection with her, Which Dick can't see through being a normal man, But still he was worried as he did not know if his Villain halo can counter FL or ML halo.
"I am sure, Even if I fall, That's all be my fault. There will be no one to blame but me, I rather prefer this one."
Sandra had a firm face as she spoke these words. After hearing Alex's story, She was ready to do anything to get away from Dick, Anything.
"Okay then I have two options here, 1 has 50/50 chances of working, while the other one will 100 percent work. Which one you will choose?
Alex did not waste any time and went directly into the topic as Villain dies from over-monologuing. He will never do that, He is a good villain.
*After 2 minutes of long monologue*
That's why he knew he would never lose. He's just now waiting for Sandra's answer.
"2nd one."
Sandra just said it without giving a second thought to the 1st option, She did not want to take any chances, If there is a foolproof option, She will choose that one.
"Really, are you sure? You did not even ask me why I did not use it on "Her", Why?"
Alex asked in confusion, but in his heart, he smiled like a maniac. Of course, he knew why she did not ask him as a trait of FL is that they are smart enough to connect the points but keep in mind that in the face of misunderstanding, It goes offline or even works against it.
'System, use eye of truth on Dick.'
Alex, seeing he has time, decided to check the stats of the man going to turn green.
[Ding! Please specify whose dick you want information about.]
The system's voice fell making Alex speechless but he can't even be bad as he indeed did not phase it right making the system misunderstood.
'System uses it on ML Dick, No wait, Humm....*Sigh* Just show his information.'
Alex wanted to rephrase it but found out it was very hard not to misunderstand with that name, So he gave up. He used his eyes as an indicator and asked the system to do it.
He can use "Eye Of Truth" without the help of the system but he prefers the system as it is the quick and safest option.

Summary : Dick is a cold-hearted domineering CEO, This is a proper ML trope in the romance novel. Someone like him once loved someone then they will love that person to the end no matter what.
(Note : ML can forgive and accept anything FL will do no question asked, But do act angry on the surface, Which can be solved if FL also became angry.)
'Yes, A proper ML's stats, I wonder why a low-grade villain when they follow behind their supposed fiance called licking dogs, While ML spoil some stranger did not, In his eyes ML is way more licking than them.'
Alex was not in the slightest bit surprised after seeing the stats of Dick, As an ML he too had to perfect for the "perfect" woman FL.
They are always superior to other men around them, They also somehow know or in fact master in the things which are miles away from their supposed speciality of work.
But that's how ML works. It's dangerous to question their logic as a crazy fan of those ML's will hunt you down for saying anything against their "husband."
So he drop the idea and focused on the other thing, He is also not surprised with luck being indefinite as Dick is yet to be officially chosen as ML, After all in every romance book there are 2 or 3 extra ML candidates, Which can become ML depending on the preference of the author.
ML get their luck from FL, Yes they do get from FL as any time she is close to him, ML will get into serious trouble.
Which in others' eyes is a bad thing but for the ones who are favoured by luck it is an opportunity, So ML gain more power, strength and connections, While FL enjoys it.
This is how FL and ML mechanics work, Which is why the Luck of ML is indefinite as he did not have his luck, He just merely use FL's luck.
'But why is there something missing about Dick here?'
But Alex had one question in his mind about stats of Dick, He felt something is missing,
It's quite an op that Dick has pretty much all everyday skills maxed out but according to the ML standers it was just barely making it, There is still something lacking in him.
[Ding! The host "Eye of Truth" can only tell all the hidden details of the person, Background and such external things are not covered in the current level of skill, You need to upgrade the superpower for it.]
System sensing its host's confusion quickly answered, Which is what he needed.
'Ohh that's why, His background was not mentioned here, No wonder I feel something is missing.'
Alex now gets why he felt something lacking in Dick. It was the background. After all, which MP did not have a super OP background that can crush all lower families?
It also shows the limitation of the Eye Of Truth. Though it can show everything about a person without a problem but it can only show the person or target, Ot did not mention other things related to the target.
So he had to figure Dicks background out which was not as hard as his name gives away, He is from the Wilson family, Ranked 4th family in Berlin city.
"You did not do it because you loved her, So you can't make yourself to hurt her."
Alex gets out of the system, Though he now gets used to the time difference in both places, It still makes his head buzz a little, Which is though annoying but not to worry about.
So when he stabilised, He heard the words of Sandra. It took a second for Alex to understand that she was answering his question, Which he asked before looking at Dick's stats.
He already knew her answer but he had to stay in his character to push her forward, So he showed a surprised look as if he did not expect her to say something like this to him.
"If you can guess that then you should also guess that what I am suggesting will not be easy, It might hurt Dick a lot, Do you still wanna do it?"
Alex asked her fully knowing that species like FL will do things the one they specifically told not to do, After all they are "Independent" women.
So he knew the answer to her. He is well aware that the more he forces down the idea of her being with Dick, The more she will resist it. That's why even if it was nauseating to suggest something like that, He had to do it.
"Why should he be hurt? And even if he did, what it has anything to do with me? I do not know him enough to love him nor do I care enough about him to hate him, So I did not have anything to hold back."
Sandra, like Alex predicted, did not like his suggestion at all, but not for the reason might have guessed. She was more angry about how Alex suggested she to be with another man. Is she not beautiful enough to take advantage of her weakness?
She thought men are possessive creators, But Alex did not show any kinda attraction towards her, making her doubt her own charm.
"Well true, I also think he did not love you, So he too will not go to get hurt just going to be super disgusted by it."
Alex lies through his teeth, Though Dick does not "love" her yet, In his heart she is only for him, So he will shatter seeing the thing Alex decided to do with Sandra.
He also did not care much. After the deed is done, Sandra will fall into his camp, And ML being ML will be a good little cuck, So he can do this without much worry.
"So what do we have to do? What is the plan?"
After Sandra made a firm decision she wanted to do this, She asked Alex what the plan was though she had little expectations about it in her heart.
"Coma on girl, Don't be too naive, If you can guess before things then you can tell what my plan will be, We are going to fuck, That too in a place where he can see it."
Alex raised his eyebrow and boldly said to her, According to the story he told her, He already did this many times, So he did not have to pretend to be modest like he had to in front of other women.
"Wha- That, This- Yo.."
Well Alex's words broke her mind temporarily, As excitement overheat her brain, Yes like all other FL who did not have a kid of a stranger who is definitely not an ML *Wink* She is a virgin.
So she was excited hearing it, Plus Alex's charm is there to simulate her to this extent.
'Woman'
Alex just shakes his head before dragging stunned her by the wrist towards the secluded place in the corner of the store.
'Xiao bai I will be back in 20...30 minutes, Until then be a good girl and stay with Grace.'
Sandra had not come out of her shock yet and was still dragged away by Alex, So Alex had a chance to give Xiao Bai a heads up, He did not want to make her panic again.
'Huh...No, You need.'
Xiao Bai, hearing his words, quickly looked at Alex's position in fear but found out that he was not there.
She anxiously wanders her eyes all around and thankfully finds him walking towards the secluded storeroom.
She quickly said in her mind ready to walk towards him, For her being with him is the safest place.
Yeah, even though she holds a feared and respected S-Rank power, She is afraid of being alone, Which is an inherent thing of beasts after they imprint on someone, Plus the contract between them makes a special bond between them.
This can be seen from the fact that Her eyes now become misty. An S-Rank warrior is now on the verge of crying out because of fear of being away from him.
'No, Xiao stays with her, I will be back quickly I promise okay?'
Alex turned around hearing her words just to see what she was up to. He quickly commanded her to stop. He understood it would be hard for her to separate from him but he had to.
Sandra is too close to being fallen in his camp, Not only that she is also FL, Which is one more insurance against the protagonists, As you can't be too careful with beings like those.
If he conquered FL, Then there will be fewer variables and his previous plan will work smoothly. He really can't afford to fail now.
That's why he did not want her to be with him. Though there is nothing wrong with her bringing them with him as she is a mature woman, In other words, legal. So if he wants he can even add her in fun.
But he still decided not to, She was still not able to say words carefully yet, At least wait till she can speak properly before taking her V-card,...It did sound bad but it was not, She is legal, Just not learning how to speak properly yet.
'But- '
'I will give you a shiny neck bell for being a good girl, Also One extra treat today, Okay?'
Xiao Bai even after his command did not want to listen, It is really hard for her to be away from him, Specially since it is not long since she hatched, So this world is still unknown and fearful for her.
But Alex was relax because he knew there is Grace who will take care of her in his absence, So he bribed her as it is a universal card of convincing people.
'....Okay, But soon come.'
It worked. As part of the cat, She was too weak to shine and ring things, So the bell is her achilles heel, So she had to give in.
Seeing she now not moving or following him, Alex gave her a comforting smile before entering the store room.
Xiao Bai looked at Alex as he closed the storeroom door. A worry was too obvious in her eyes but she could also sense that Alex wanted to do something important that's why she did not do too much.
She looked at her side at Grace, Who did not mind the absence of Alex as thinking being a man, He should have gone wandering around in the store to look at things.
*Grab*
Xiao Bai did not mind, Just looked at the empty soft hand of Grace then reached out her small hand and grabbed Grace's hand tightly bearing herself to be away from Alex for 30 minutes.
"Huh!? Are you hungry Xiao Bai? Should we go and eat something?"
Grace was looking at a man who insulted Alex hate in her eyes, Though she did not show it but she is no less protective of him than other women around him, It's just she can tell he was up to shenanigans, So she kept shut.
But her mind does cooking plans to get revenge sooner or later, and she will not forget this insult of her man.
When she was in her thoughts, She felt something unusually warm and soft grabbing her hand. When she looked down in surprise she found out that Xiao Bai was holding her hand, While biting the thumb of the other hand.
Grace could not handle this overwhelming cuteness. She had the urge to lift her in her arms but stopped herself from doing so. She did not want to take the risk of making her angry.
So she asked her if she wanted to eat as it was past noon, Grace thought she should be hungry, Which is why she held her hand.
"She does not need to eat anything, She is self-sufficient."
Liza, who was also throwing daggers towards Dick turned around to say it to Grace.
As an S-Rank beast, That too was a legendary one, All needed energy got to her from being surrounded by the mana or spiritual power depending on their cultivation type of hers.
Normal food did not give any energy to them as it is filled with lots of impurities and such, So they abstain from eating anything else.
"Water meat."
As Liza's words fell, Xiao Bai answered Grace's question without even looking at Liza. In her eyes this woman is her competition for Alex's affection, Which means she is her enemy.
"Water meat? Do you mean fish? Do you want to eat fish?"
Grace too ignored Liza, making her feel embarrassed. She asked Xiao Bai if she meant fish by the water meat.
"Hum hum."
To which Xiao Bai nodded excitedly, Grace smiled knowing what she wanted and so the duo walked towards the exit of the store as a clerk named Sandra said to them that there is a cafe around the corner.
If there is a cafe then there will be a food court. Now they just have to find a place that sells fish in the mall, which is the hardest task.
"Hey wait for me!"
Liza looked at Dick contemplating about giving order to her hidden guards to teach him what happens when provoked by a warned person but decided not to as Alex warned her about it.
So she ran after the duo of Grace and Xiao Bai, As she too thought that Alex should have gone to look for things, Which will take a while.
...
"Finally those disgusting women are gone."
Dick sighed a relief when he saw the trio walk out of the store, He was very comfortable being gazed at by the two of them, especially the short one who was not looking away at all.
Just looking at him with her eyes filled with lust (Sorely mistaken), He did not get how a hooligan like her got here but then thinking she was with that gigolo, He understood, What did he expect from a woman like her?
It was not the first time women were crazy about me and tried to get his attention. Every day there were lots of women running behind him to get his attention, But they were all from high-class families.
Each one trained from childhood to act respectfully. That's why he did not feel much weird around those women but Liza at first glance looked like a malnourished low-class woman.
So she can be like this, there is no strangeness in it, But he still is not like it, in fact, he hated even being disgusted and stared at by another woman since he met that little white bunny.
First, he hated her to the core, In his eyes, she was or still is a woman who used him to help her family but now he did not know why he couldn't stay away from her.
Since she left the house, he did not feel like going back there anymore. He hated the fact that she was not there? She is his possession, He brought her in exchange for saving her family, How can she go away like this?
No, she can't run away from him. She has to be with him even after death she can't go away.
This is what he thinks now. This might be the reason why he wants her back. At least he thinks so, As he did pay in billions to save her family.
That's the strong feeling he did not know about which is obviously weird but still love is interpreted as the unwillingness of losing his money, Which is his signature plot of misunderstanding of a romance novel.
"How much time madam is going to take to come here? Wait? Where did that little bunny go?"
Dick shakes his head, throwing out those thoughts. He now wanted to focus on putting a leash on her neck, So he was annoyed that Madam was taking this much time.
He was looking around the store and found out that Sandra was missing, He did not even notice when she was gone.
He quickly looked around but still could not find her or that gigolo. He became anxious as he started running around to look for her.
Outside in the store, Dick was running around searching for Sandra in panic and anger, While inside the secluded storeroom, Alex was staring at Sandra who did not dare to meet with his eyes.
"You don't even know how to do this? Are you not lying, right?"
Alex asked her in surprise, How can in this day and age she not have the slightest idea about that thing?
"Don't look at me like that, I am not lying, My family was very traditional, I was not even allowed to have a phone not to mention the internet is a forbidden thing in my household."
Sandra still dodged his eyes. She did not have the guts to look at him while saying this to him. She pretty much has no idea how the outside world works.
Her family though rich but had too much backward thinking, No electronics were allowed in their household, Which is an irony as they are in the electronics business, No wonder they go bankrupt.
"Still, This is the 21st century. You at least need to know how to make a call. God, how did you survive all this time? You don't even know how to make a simple call."
Alex did not agree with her argument at all, Even if her family was a traditional one, She was away from her family for 1 year and 2 months. She should have at least learned to make a phone call.
It's not even like she was not in contact with electronics, Wilson's estate should have plenty of things to get herself familiar with in more than a year.
"I-Dick said I didn't need a phone, I also did not get why it is important. It just used to make a call, I can do that from the public telephones. So I also did not buy it, Not to mention it cost too much money, 250 UC, I don't have that much now to waste on that plastic thing."
Sandra said not willing to lose face in front of Alex. She really thinks phones are only used to make calls, And that's all. She kinda knows it can take pictures and show the media but the one she saw was at least 10 years ago.
So she did not know what current smartphones are capable of.
"...You work in an electronic shop, How do they even hire you?"
Alex put the +18 thing on hold, This is more important to know. He at first just wanted her to make a call to her co-workers and make an excuse, Which prevented them from coming here but he unravelled this thing.
This is even crazier to happen than FL knowing how sex works, Which is a common trope of romance novels.
"No, I work in a game shop, An electronic shop I guess is downstairs. Also, this is my first day, So cut me some slack."
Sandra "corrected" Alex, You can now officially say she is technologically illiterate.
"Fuck it, Can you tell me a schedule of your coworkers and what is a possibility of them coming here?"
Though Alex is curious, he also has his own limits. He did not want to go into that argument. At least not right now. Not enough time, He will continue this useless but important debate later.
"Humm...They should be on break or gossiping somewhere as at noon there are not many customers, Some of the things you asked are here but now that I am also here, Others will not probably not come here, But why?"
Sandra put her index slender finger on her chin to think or look cute before she answered Alex.
He too looked at her doing this and found out that she is an FL for a reason, Though her charm is just around 140 barely touching the criteria of heroines, But she made that up with her inherent aura.
To be fair most of the heroines do have their own aura like Alia having an icy cold one, But Sandra is unique, Simple actions of hers provoke primal instincts in man. It is really hard to resist not falling for her.
This might be the reason why lots of men fall head over heels for FL, This is their given own special blessing of the world.
Like right now, She just did a casual action, Which normally he will not care enough about but now his eyes are automatically attracted towards her. He did not notice before but she is quite a beautiful woman.
It might be because there was Grace and Liza before, So she fell behind but now seeing her individually, she did not look bad at all.
Her figure though not as wild as Liza or enchanting as Helen, It was simple and ideally curvy, It was simple but also unique in her way.
She has buttock-length hair that was dark black like a shadow. Her eyes were crisp dark brown, nothing special still because of the simplicity it gave her a quiet special look.
Same for her nose and lips, Both have nothing special but are well crafted, The only thing that may be unique was her slender long milky white neck, Which will be highly desired by any dweller of dark blood-sucking beings.
Her height too was a normal average of 5.5 ft, But even then it has given her quite a different look.
She looks too simple to be considered as special but rather than being her weakness this is her strength, Her physical traits are simple but were also perfect.
Her special aura and the symmetry of her body give her simple body an uncanny look, Which is irresistible for anyone.
"Hello, Are you there? You have not answered me, why do you need to know this?"
Sandra walked to Alex and waved her hand in front of him as seeing him going black staring at her.
Though she had an idea why he might have asked her for it, She still wanted to hear from her so as not to make assumptions and hurt him.
Because no man would want to do it here in the storeroom, She was also quite nervous, this being her first time and not knowing much, So she was still saying stuff without thinking much.
"You really don't know? Sandra?"
Alex comes out of his thoughts and says to her in a suggestive voice lifting his one eyebrow high.
He just now finds out why Sandra is FL, Even though he being a sea king* was affected by her aura, Which is a feat not to scoff off.
Still, because of that, he was even more excited to steal her from Dick, Though now that he thinks about it, His system should be changed to something else.
It is a Raiding system, Which was supposed to help him raid heroines means conquering their hearts through his words and actions, But all he was here doing is to fuck them till submission.
[Ding! As long as the host raids heroin, the system does not mind what the host use to do it, Nothing is off the table, Once favorability crosses 100 it will consider raiding them, Then which will get you a reward.
Though first crossing 100 favorability and then doing +18 stuff with them gives you extra stuff and buffs but it is optional.
(Note : Kissing and 1st base thing do not count as 18+ stuff)]
The system might have guessed what Alex was thinking as he did not put any effort to hide it, So it has to come out and explain to him.
'Wait!! Extra rewards? Why did you not say that earlier?'
Alex put Sandra on hold for a second. He opened the system panel and asked the system, Now that he thinks about it, He did indeed not receive additional rewards for Alia and Helen as he did with Grace and Liza.
The first reason he did not notice was because of the large amount of rewards he received in that time frame.
2nd is he does receive rewards from them but those were from his "Sex-Copy" skill, but because he received rewards he did not pay much attention to them.
Now that the system said it, It clicked him, He indeed did not receive any additional rewards from them.
[Ding! Host like it said it is an option and the system did say that raiding will give you rewards. You did not ask for a tutorial of the system before you started raiding heroines.]
The system said it innocently as it was really not its fault for Alex not knowing this fact, he did not ask, So it did not tell, And now he asked, System also told him.
'...'
Alex was speechless but in his defence who goes through tutorials on things they know pretty much all about? Didn't he use the system just fine? The system should have told him if it was necessary.
[Ding! The host you are the villain, So you should have to be careful and look through everything, After all, the devil is in the details.]
The system answered him, Even though the system's voice was a plain old mechanical one, Alex still felt it was gloating as the words said by the system are the ones technically he said it to it, When he chose all the beast's eggs.
And now he made the mistake, So hearing those words was like a slap in the face, But a good kind, At least he saved himself from losing another extra reward knowing this thing.
After all the more the merrier, Can't be too careful when it comes to the protagonist.
So now with a new side mission in mind, He closed the system panel, Looked dead into Samdra's dark brown eyes, Who was shocked and shy from his previous question.
He reached his hand towards his face and removed his white face mask which was covering his face.
*Boom*
[Ding...]
Alex removed that white face mask from his face, Sandra was shocked to her core. Her eyes went wide open, and she was not able to believe what she was seeing at all.
Yes, That face mask was as useless as trying to hide the sun with the palm of my hand but at least it let you glimpse at the direction of the sun but without it, you can't look at it.
The same thing happens here, Though she can see he was an exceedingly handsome man a little more handsome than Dick but now seeing him without the mask, She was ashamed of her previous statement.
Comparing Dick with him is like trying to compare the light of a firefly to the lustre of a moon. It is a foolish thing to do.
Alex did not look like any man at all. He looked like a divine being who walked on this mortal plane. She couldn't even look away from him, Her eyes were like a magnet attached to metal from his figure.

'...System what just happened?'
Alex was stunned in place just like Sandra but for a different reason as system notifications a few times rang in his mind.
He did not expect this at all, He only thought he would get a quick slight increase from the face reveal to make the next thing a little easier but this is not what he expected, Even face control unicorns like Liza did not have this extreme reaction seeing his face.
This caught him off guard not giving him time to think about possible reasons, But he doesn't need to as there is a system to explain to him free of cost.
[Ding! The reason this happened host is that she is a Female Lead and not a heroine, And because of that- ]
'She did not have heavenly protection of heaven like heroines do, Which job was preventing my charm from affecting them too much, So she was feeling the full extent of my charm.'
The system took the lead to clarify the matter but Alex cut it mid-off as he gets why she showed this extreme reaction.
Like said before every heroine has the protection of heaven to prevent them from being too stimulated by the charm of other people, As they are meant to be for the protagonist, Who at best are slightly above average looking people.
But Sandra being a female lead did not have that privilege, Not because she is lower than heroines though, Rather she is 1 rank higher than them.
The reason they did not have it is very simple, FL does not need it. That protection exists to prevent the protagonist from getting green but FL did not have that problem.
In fact, the reason why she even showed this extreme reaction is that as FL, Her partner (ML) should be one in a million or even a billion in terms of looks, So in her case her status effect rather than lowering his charm lethality for her it enhances it.
After all, most of the FL are face-control women and there is also no restriction of being monogamous as some FL can even open their own harem.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully raiding Sandra, A Female lead...
Rewards are being distributed...
Congratulations to the host for getting the "Hidden Secret."
Hidden Secret : As its name says this is a hidden secret, When the time is right it will reveal itself giving the host a large boost of all around.]
'Not bad, My own deus ex machina, Though I expected to receive something like this from Rebecca, not FL Sandra.'
Alex looked at the reward with satisfaction, This is his own deus ex machina, A.K.A. plot armour.
As one can tell rewards correspond to the female speciality, So Alex expected to get something like this from Rebecca as this is literally in her superpowers name, But Sandra giving this is also not that odd as FL also has her own strong plot armour.
'Now, I have one extra life.'
Alex now feels safer as now with this "Hidden Secret" thing, He can afford to make mistakes as this thing can save his ass, When needed, So he can go a little crazy if he wants.
"Sandra, What I am going to do next might sound odd or even you will feel uncomfortable for a while but you have to promise not to stop me, Okay?"
Alex was in a good mood, So he decided to also share that happiness with her. It's just that he had to be careful about his sex-related skills as once again she is not protected by heaven and hence will not be able to handle that raw power.
If he did too much he might break her completely, Which he did not want to do....at least yet.
"Humm"
Sandra was just staring at his face, Alex didn't even know if she had heard what he said to her but when he got an affirmative hum or he just assumed it was an affirmative, He took that as her consent.
'System makes sure only Dick can encounter this but can't enter the room or can't do anything to stop it.'
Alex before doing anything make sure no other uninvited guest might distribute them, He only gets one chance, One chance to do it in the game shop's storeroom.
So he asked the system to make sure about perverts peeping, He can't be too relayed on Sandra's statement of the Sandra.
[Ding! -100,000 RP is deducted, System provides the protection.]
The system's voice fell and 100,000 RP of his got deducted from his savings but seeing it had now crossed the mark of 10 million, He did not care much about it.
He finally put his eyes on Sandra, Now there is nothing to do then to admire her thoroughly.
"Ahhh!~ !!"
So he just anchored his arm in her slender waist, and yanked her towards himself, capturing her in his warm arms.
This action of his pulled Sandra out of her trance, A shocked yelp escaped from her mouth, Which suddenly stopped as her eyes met with his void-like dark eyes.
She was once again lost in them, These enchanting eyes were like a wide infinite darkness of the universe, Scary but also enchanting.
Her face was just an inch away from his, She could feel his warm breath grazing past her rosy cheeks, Which flushed even more after the realisation of their current position.
Her body was tightly warping in his arms, She could feel his fastening strong heartbeats, Her heart too was racing, Her eyes were wandering between his eyes and slender lips hesitating to do what her whole mind and body were urging her to do.
Alex seeing her like this shook his head, His charm is very lethal for any non-heroine, Sandra's front of him is proof of it.
So he did what any sane person does in this situation. He grabbed her by her milky white neck with force to choke her and pushed her back till her back slammed on the wall behind them.
*Bang*
A pain hit Sandra's mind, her eyes in shock and confusion looked at Alex. She wanted to ask why he did this or rather she was curious about how he was this strong.
His grip on her neck was no joke. It was nearly suffocating her and that push was so strong that she was not able to put up any resistance to it. She needed an answer though why he was doing this.
"Alex wh- Mummm!!~"
But before she could say something her lips were sealed by his, He rudely bit her lips before sliding his wet slippery tongue into her mouth taking advantage of her surprise.
Sandra was confused about whether to enjoy her first kiss or try not to suffocate as he was still holding her neck blocking her airway.
"Muhmm Ummm Ahhh!~"
She wanted to say that to Alex but her mouth was blocked by his mouth, So only a seductive moans escaped from her mouth. She was trying to suppress those but she couldn't help it, He was just too good.
His tongue found her and now he was rampaging in her mouth, while she helplessly could only take wave after wave of pleasure hitting her whole being.
She was still somehow able to manage it but when his other hand sneakily climbed onto her body and strongly and rudely grabbed her boob and started foundling it, She dropped to her knees, There is no way she can fight back.
It was hurting, It was giving her so much pain and yet his savageness, the fierce raw passion of his was also igniting flames of desire in her heart.
It is weird. She hates being dominated and controlled by others. This is the reason why she left Dick in the first place and yet when Alex is doing the same thing to her rather than getting disgusted by it, She is enjoying it.
Moans after moan were escaping from his mouth as her lips were still sealed.
Alex can taste a metallic taste mixed with sweetness. He knew it was blood from her bleeding lip, So he just rubbed the tip of his tongue over it, making Sandra shiver in his arms.
Her body was heating up second by second, Her burning red hot face now was also filled with glistering beads of sweat adding a few points to her beauty.
But it was a pity that Alex, rather, was in the mood to bully her. He brought her close to climax multiple times during this small amount of time but he did not let her have her release, Making her moan in annoyance.
But he was enjoying every second of it, So it will go on for a while.
....
"Where had she gone? Huh, Storeroom? I did not check there, Let me take a look."
Dick searched all around but he did not find Sandra at all. He was on the verge of giving up on finding her on his own and was ready to let his man search for her but suddenly a thought of checking in the storeroom popped into his mind.
Though it was weird, he couldn't think of any reason for her to be there as her job was just to introduce the product. He still decided to go there as there was a strong feeling in his heart that she would be there.
So reached the secluded storeroom, And was ready to knock on the door ready to not receive any reply but his action was halted as he heard weird voices coming out of the storeroom.
