To Get Stronger, I’m Forced to Grind Their Affection

Chapter 7

Somewhere in that eastern forest.

A gentle breeze swept by, stirring the fallen leaves on the ground. Ailuka and Luolin stood facing each other.

A few minutes ago, Ailuka had been bound by vines in a strange position...

It was Luolin who had saved her.

"Thank you for saving me."

After Luolin set Ailuka down from his back, she said politely.

[Affection +10]

Luolin checked the affection points and breathed a sigh of relief. It was really not easy to increase this person's affection—saving her life had barely added 10 points.

However, Luolin now faced a more important choice.

"Damn it, in for a penny, in for a pound. If I'm going to be a scumbag, so be it. I need to farm affection points, but I can't let the resentment value fall behind either!"Luolin had already confirmed earlier that if one of the two systems significantly exceeded the other in level, the weaker one would be devoured.

To obtain the benefits of both systems, Luolin had to maintain a balance between them.

So, Luolin threatened the girl before him, demanding that she remove her clothes.

"If you don't take them off, I'll have to do it myself!"

"Huh? What? Wait, what are you trying to do? Don't come closer! Don't come any closer!! I... I understand! I'll do it myself!"

Ailuka's heart filled with humiliation, but she had no choice but to do it herself, removing her clothes in front of Luolin until only her final line of defense remained.

"This... this should be enough, right! You pervert!"

[Resentment Value +10, Bonus Reward +10]

[Current Target Ailuka's Accumulated Resentment Value: 30]

There was even a bonus reward? It seemed this person's resentment toward him was extraordinarily deep.

"You dare curse at me again?"

Though relieved inside, Luolin said this aloud.

Ailuka's sense of humiliation had reached its peak. Was she really going to be defiled by this scumbag at her final moment?

Ailuka felt tragically resigned about her life.

Luolin actually felt somewhat guilty too. After all, making a girl end up like this was too exhilarating... too unbearable to watch.

[Host, make her remove her remaining underwear and panties too. You'll definitely gain a massive amount of resentment value.]

Give me a break!

Ailuka quietly retreated, leaning against a tree root, but then suddenly clutched her chest and began to experience pain.

"Damn it..."

Ailuka's face showed undisguisable pain as she spoke. She hadn't expected this to happen at this moment.

"What's wrong with you?"

Luolin wasn't blind—he naturally noticed Ailuka's strange condition and asked.

"You pervert! I don't need your concern. Get away from here right now, or I'll cut you down..."

Ailuka said with some difficulty.

"There's no way I can leave when you're like this, okay?"

Luolin was about to carry Ailuka on his back again, but she pushed him away.

"Don't touch me!"

"What exactly is wrong with you?"

Luolin thought perhaps he had gone too far.

"You should get out of here quickly. Among that group of goblins, there's a leader. I invaded its territory earlier, and now it's looking for me. If you don't leave, you definitely won't be able to escape either."

However, Ailuka said.

"If that's the case, I'll take you away first..."

"It's useless. Even if you successfully take me out, I won't live much longer anyway."

Ailuka revealed a miserable smile.

"Pervert, now that you've seen me in this state, I suppose you've fulfilled your life's dream, right? If that's the case, then hurry up and get lost, unless you want to die here with me."

"Don't just change how you address me to 'pervert'!"

Ailuka's face was full of pain, and she could no longer answer Luolin's questions.

Luolin could only turn to his system for help.

"Do any of you know what's going on here?"

[I am the system that collects resentment. I don't know how to save people. But if you want to take this opportunity to have your way with her, I'd support that.]

There's no way she could do that kind of thing in her current state, okay?

"What about you? The one who wants affection points."

[Master, are you sure you want to know?]

"What else?"

[If you know, it means you can't just stand by and watch. You must save her. I want affection points.]

"...Fine, I agree."

Only after Luolin agreed did the affection system begin to exert its function.

[This time, the help is free. But if something like this happens again, you'll have to pay affection points.]

A faint light emanated from Luolin's body, gathered together, and shone upon Ailuka.

Luolin began to obtain information that could be gathered from Ailuka's body.

It turned out she wasn't purely human—she possessed half dragon blood.

It was precisely this half dragon blood that gave her natural divine strength and formidable combat ability, allowing her to wield that extraordinarily heavy weapon.

However, it was also this half dragon blood that made her body so powerful that her heart couldn't bear the burden.

She wouldn't live past 16 years old. Now, at the arrival of this 16-year limit, her heart was about to shatter because it couldn't withstand her body's power, and her life would end here.

[Master, but you promised to save her. Now, what will you use to save her?]

The voice of the affection system was full of scheming undertones.
