Villain: TPOD, Chapter 263
🕑 Added 2022-11-19 14:39:50 +0000 UTC{Ding! The Quest to Conquer Hannah Reyes has failed!}
{Failure Penalty: The Host would not receive any rewards from his first successful quest.}
{Ding! The Quest to Conquer Zoey Alvarez has failed!}
{Failure Penalty: The Host would get half the rewards from his second successful quest.}
Mathew vacantly stared at the ceiling of his hospital ward.
He was already expecting a failure in Zoey's quest, but he was quite confident about conquering Hannah.
Her beautiful face appeared in his mind, also the sparkle in her eyes when they danced together, and he could not help but feel hollow in his heart.
The System had informed him that she had no romantic feelings for Javier Alvarez and was only engaged to him out of duty to her family.
Losing her had destroyed his Business plans as well. He needed her by his side to help with his Business, but now, everything was falling apart.
{The Host does not need to be too depressed.}
"How can I not be depressed?" He let out a hollow chuckle and then closed his eyes with a painful and mocking smile.
{The System has judged that the Host is lacking and it has resulted in repeated failures in conquering the targets.} He was about to lash out when he heard those words, but the System's next words surprised him. {Therefore, the System is issuing a random reward that could help the Host in securing his future targets.}
{Ding! Congratulations Host on acquiring the Ensnaring Perfume!}
{Ensnaring Perfume: A mystical Love Potion created with very precious treasures. Though a Perfume, it has no scent. All one needs to do is mix a few drops of their blood in it, and then when it is applied to a target, the target would feel attracted towards the one whose blood is mixed in the Perfume. As the feelings grow stronger between the two, the effect of the Perfume grows stronger as well, and eventually, it would bring the target into a Heat which would force them to seek your comfort. The aphrodisiac effect of the Perfume is very potent. If the target's heat is not satiated by you in time, they could lose their mind.}
"What the hell?!" Mathew was furious when he saw what the System's reward was. He felt like he was being humiliated by the System too, as this reward clearly meant that he was incapable of completing the tasks and required such a shameless method to achieve results.
{It's a reward that has been randomly generated. It had been judged that it is the most suitable weapon for Host right now.}
"Shut up!" He yelled and then stared at the bottle of Perfume inside the System Inventory.
He wanted to grab it and empty all its content on the floor, but at the same time, the sensible part of his mind told him that it was indeed the most useful weapon in the situation he was in.
Suddenly, an insidious thought sprouted in his mind, and the face of the most beautiful girl he had ever seen appeared in his mind.
"It would work on anyone?"
{The Ensnaring Perfume has its limitations. It would not work on those who are truly in love with someone else, bounded by Sacred Vows, as well as those whose Will is stronger than you. The Perfume is also only applicable to humans and other basest races.}
"Would it work on Keith's Maid?"
{The System can not answer the question as it does not know any details about Minami Demiliore. The System advises the Host to not stray from his objectives and focus only on the System Quests.}
"You are useless!" He gritted his teeth and then looked at the two active Quests.
He could still conquer Maria Valeca, Amira Goldsmith, and Reina Goldsmith with the help of this Perfume.
Mathew did not care about the three, and such, he decided to use any means necessary to finish his Quests.
{Ding! A quest has been generated.}
{Conquer Stella Stone, the newly appointed Nurse at the Mystich State Hospital. Rewards: Aura Soul Potion and a Foundation Building Pill.}
{Stella Stone; She is the daughter of the famous Artist Cillian Stone, and the secret child of the Businesswoman, Valaena Ford. Stella has no memories of her mother and loves her father dearly. Her father dotes on her a lot, and she aspires to become a doctor. She has come to Mystich City to work and serve as a Nurse at the State Hospital for six months to gain the required experience she needs to finish her Medical School.
Stella loves reading romance novels and listens to Pop Music. Her favourite Cuisine is Mexican. She does not like people who smoke and drink, and are rich. She has a dislike for rich people because of her mother, who broke her father's heart as she did not consider him worthy enough to become her husband and married the man her family wanted her to marry.}
"She's here?" He surprisedly asked.
{Yes, Host. She is currently at the Hospital.}
"I see."
Deciding not to waste any time, he got up from the bed and then exited the ward.
"Young Master. You are not allowed to leave the ward." A guard stopped him, and it did not please him at all.
"It is not for you to tell me what to do and what not. I am just going for a stroll inside the Hospital. If you wish, you can inform my grandfather." He said and shrugged the guard's hand off him, walking down the corridor and taking the left to the ground floor.
Mathew asked the System what Stella looked like, and after searching the hospital for a good half hour, he finally came across a beautiful girl in her early twenties, with blonde hair and a curvaceous body.
She was currently sitting at a bench, going through a file, and she looked quite invested in what she was reading.
He only debated for a moment before he entered the Gents' Restroom and pricked his left forefinger with a needle. And then he took the bottle of Ensnaring Perfume and dropped his blood in it.
Five minutes later, he exited the Restroom and walked over to the Blonde Nurse.
"Excuse me, Miss. Can you please guide me to where I can find the cafeteria?"
Stella raised her head and was briefly surprised at it was a handsome young man who had just spoken.
"Sorry, but the Cafeteria closes at midnight. You will have to go out to get something to eat or you can use the Vending Machine." She pointed at one that was down the corridor.
Mathew sighed at her words and shook his head.
"Do you by any chance have change? I am not allowed to leave the Hospital." He pitifully said, which earned him her smile and curiosity.
"How much do you need?" She asked.
A change of 100 would be enough." He said as he took out his wallet and 100 Neris note from it.
"I don't think I have change for 100." She said and then took her small purse from her pocket, and indeed, she only had a change for 50 Neris on her.
"It's fine. I will take it."
"But..."
Mathew did not say anything and handed her the 100 Neris note, grabbing the change of 50 from her other hand.
"You can return that to me later. I am staying in Ward 8." He gently said, and then drew his hand forward to her. "My name is Mathew. Thank you for helping me at this hour of the night."
"You're welcome." Stella smiled and shook his hand, not knowing that her hand was not laced with Ensnaring Perfume. "I am Stella."
"Have a good night, Stella." He nodded to her and then walked towards the Vending Machine.
{The Ensnaring Potion has been successfully applied on Stella Stone, and it had already taken root.}
The System's voice sounded out, and sure enough, when Mathew glanced at where Stella was suiting, he caught her curiously looking at him.
He smiled at her, and she immediately turned her eyes away, feeling embarrassed at being caught.
Somewhere else in the city, inside a Presidential Suite of a Five-Star Hotel, two lovers lay naked in each other's embrace.
The girl wore a content smile on her face as she slept soundly, and the ridiculously handsome man, whose arms she was resting in, was lost in some thoughts.
Keith's mind was focused on the changes that were taking place inside Zoey's body. She possessed the Innate Fire Physique.
Things the Innate Physiques were only Profound Grade Physiques, they were still very special as they could evolve into Superior Innate Physiques, and then even into Heavenly Innate Physiques as well.
These Physiques were also capable of bonding with Elemental Spirit Treasures, and if Zoey ever managed to refine an Immortal Grade Spirit Flame, her Physique could also evolve into an Immortal Innnate Physique, which would open the path of Immortality to her as almost assure it.
He of course knew all these things, and what he was concentrating on right now was how his own Physique had just helped her.
She had not even realised it but she had already opened seven of her Aura Nodes, all of which he was directing since the first Aura Node was very important and he did not want to be any other than one in her heart.
And right now, at the rate these Aura Nodes were refining Aura, it seemed like she would open several more before she would wake up from her sleep.
{Ding! The system has detected a minor change in Mathew Frost's Destiny.}
"So, the Destiny has come to the aid of its favourite child." He smiled when he heard System's prompt.
{Yes, Host. His Fate has slightly stabilised as well and is once again on a rising trend.}
"Interesting." Keith narrowed his eyes.
He had already made arrangements for keeping Mathew from leaving the country. And he had anticipated such a change.
Keith was sure that Destiny had found Mathew a new target as compensation for the ones he had lost. However, he doubted that the compensation was for Zoey. It was probably for losing Hannah and Penelope.
People with Special Physiques could not easily be replaced, especially not in the World they were currently in.
Clearing his mind, Keith closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Soon, he arrived inside his dreamland, and a fond smile crept on his lips as he experienced the thrill of flight once again.

I knew it! From the moment I read the description I knew the basta*d would want to try it on Minami! He deserves a thorough torture by our Korean Yandere before finishing him!
