57.45% Villain: The Play of Destiny / Chapter 263: Chapter 263

Kapitel 263: Chapter 263

{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 lift 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 on 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 how handsome the young man who had just spoken was.

"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 some change on you? 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. Unbeknownst to her, her hand was now 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 sitting, 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. After all, she was special as she possessed the Innate Fire Physique.

Though 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 manages to refine an Immortal Grade Spirit Flame, her Physique could also evolve into an Immortal Innate Physique, opening the path of Immortality to her, almost assuring 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 it to be any other than the one in her heart.

And right now, at the rate that these Aura Nodes were refining Aura, it seemed like she would open several more before she wakes 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 flying once again.


Kapitel 264: Chapter 264

"What are you looking at?"

The question and the playful smile on his face made the girl burn in a furious blush.

"You." She bit her lower lip, and only lowered her eyes for a second before sneaking a glance at his nakedness.

She just could not resist how perfect he was, and it was less in lust and more in fascination that she stared at him. But that might be because her lust had been satiated earlier, and her body still held the sweet ache which reminded her of the mind-numbing pleasure he had made her experience.

"Come. Help me with my shirt." Keith suddenly said after he put on his pants and shoes, and Zoey brightly smiled before she stood up, wincing a little at the ache in her lower body.

However, she paid no heed to it as she patiently helped him put on his shirt, making sure that she traced his muscles with her hands, once more making sure if they were real or not.

They were real, and they were perfect, and she could not help but bite her lip again when she raised her head and met his eyes.

"Kiss me."

It was like a Devil's whisper, and though she knew she should not do it, given what it had led to earlier in the shower, she just tiptoed and planted her lips on his.

She just could not resist him and moaned in his mouth when his hands grabbed her ass and clawed it.

The fire was about to flare up once again, but Keith retracted his lips just in time, and then he planted them on her forehead.

"So, was your first time just as special as you wanted it to be or was it lacking?"

"Keith!" She blushed hard and hammered her soft fist on his chest, embarrassed at his question.

She could not help but recall everything that happened last night, and then she just lowered her head and entered his arms, contently burying her face in his chest and inhaling his scent.

"It was perfect."

"I am glad to hear that." He chuckled and then planted a kiss on her head, wrapping his arms tightly around her.

"I don't want to go home..."

"Then don't." He smiled. "You can stay at the mansion with me."

"But I have to go home..."

"Then go."

"You are not helping!" She giggled and sweetly smiled at him when they separated.

He was just so good to her, so caring. And her heart warmed up when she recalled how much care he showed her when he picked her up from the bed in the morning and helped her clean up with his own hands.

Yes, he fucked her hard after that and helped her clean up again, but he was such a caring and passionate lover that she could not resist but step forward to plant a kiss on his cheek.

"What was that for?" Keith curiously smiled and asked as he watched Zoey skip out of the dressing room.

"Nothing!" She said, and then pouted at him when she saw the torn pieces of her dress from the last night, still on the floor. "It was my favourite dress..."

"It was just a dress." He shrugged.

"Hmph!" She pouted some more, but then a restless expression crept on her face. "Keith..."

"Yes?"

"Would you mind... meeting my Mom and talking to her about our relationship?"

"Let's go."

She was stunned when he simply grabbed her head and started pulling her out of the room.

"I will drop you home and talk to your mother too."

His words warmed her heart and she lowered her head, wearing a silly smile on her face, obediently following him.

However, she had to raise her head when they arrived at the main lobby on the ground floor, and Keith suddenly stopped.

"Master Demiliore..."

It was the voice she recognised as it was her brother's voice, and she blushed hard as she tried to hide behind Keith.

"Good morning, Heir Alvarez." Keith, however, was not embarrassed and shook hands with Javier.

"Good morning, Zoey." Javier quickly greeted her, and without waiting for a response, he looked at Keith again. "Have you received the news?"

"I am afraid I did not check my phone since last night." Keith shook his head. "What happened?" He curiously asked.

"The old man of the Oscar Family passed away in his sleep. Heart Failure." The man with chestnut hair informed him.

"Oh." Keith indifferently reacted to the News and then smiled when he caught sight of Hannah in the lobby, vacantly looking in their direction. "Go be with your fiancée."

Javier turned to look behind him and then blushed a little.

What happened last night was something he had never expected, and he knew that he had Keith to thank for it. After all, had he not pushed them to drink so much, he would have stayed oblivious to the feelings Hannah held for him in her heart.

"Please excuse me."

"No worries." Keith smiled and watched Javier happily walk over to Hannah.

"She looks like she regrets everything that happened last night." Zoey narrowed her eyes as she gauged Hannah's expressions, and Keith was impressed by her intuition.

"It has already happened. There is no point in regretting it." He shrugged. "Besides, they are meant to get married next month."

"Hmm." Zoey nodded to her words and then frowned. "The old man from the Oscar Family must have been stressed because of the actions of his stupid grandson."

"Who knows." He shrugged and then grabbed her hand, pulling her towards the parking lot.

Zoey curiously looked at him from behind. She had a hunch that he had a hand in the death of the old man, but she simply brushed the thoughts aside.

Not because she thought that she must be wrong for thinking this, but because it did not matter to her.

On the other side in the Mystich City, a young man desolately looked at the body of his grandfather.

The results of the autopsy had just come out, and the cause of death had been determined to be heart failure.

There was no evidence of foul play, so, it was concluded that it was a natural death, likely stimulated by the stress that the old man could not deal with at this age.

"Young Master, your grandfather wanted you to leave today..."

"I am not going anywhere, Albert." Mathew clenched his fists and took a deep breath. "I don't believe that it was a natural death. He was murdered. And Keith was behind it."

"Young Master..." Albert looked around in alarm, and luckily, no one was around them to hear those words. "You must not voice out such thoughts. It is unwise."

Mathew frowned at those words but nodded his head and turned to look Albert in the eyes.

"I need all the details of our businesses. Everything we have left."

"Please, Young Master. I can take care of things here. You should respect the last wish of your grandfather and stay out of the public's eyes for a year or two."

"I have made my decision, Albert. Do your job." Mathew walked past him without giving the head butler any chance to argue.

As he walked down the hallway, a small smile crept on his lips.

He had been worried last night about how to convince his grandfather to not send him away, and now, he did not need to do it.

Seemed like Fate did not wish for him to go away.

Though he had a hunch that Keith was behind his grandfather's death, he was not confident about it.

After all, if Keith wanted to deal with him, he could have dealt with him even with his grandfather by his side.

He was just that insignificant in that man's eyes and this reminder made him clench his fists hard.

All he now had to do was be careful and patient. He would use any means now to grow stronger and become powerful, and one day... One day, he will be powerful enough to trample the Demiliore and his Family and make him pay for all the humiliation he had suffered at his hands.

Mathew now had two clear goals in his mind; Maria Valeca, and Stella Stone.

Though the two were not rich, one was a very capable woman, and the other had a father who was one of the most famous artists in the country with good connections.

He wanted to grab the Goldsmith Twins too, but they seemed close to Keith, and for now, he could not afford to get into another confrontation with him.

Mathew arrived at the reception and glanced at the blonde girl who was about to go home after her night-long shift.

He deliberately walked past her, keeping his head low, wearing a melancholic expression.

His heart started racing when he nearly reached the entrance, and she did not call after him, but to his relief, he finally heard someone's footsteps behind him.

"Hey..." She called out, but he pretended to have not heard her. "Mr. Mathew." And when she called him out by his name, he finally d stopped and turned around.

"Yes?" He vacantly asked.

"Your 50 Neris!" She smiled as she offered him the money she owed him, and to her confusion, he simply nodded and grabbed the money before turning around and slowly walking out of the Hospital.

And then being a little over-dramatic, he approached a pillar and placed his hand on it, grimacing at the fake pain that oozed out of his heart.

"Hey, are you okay?" Stella asked after she could not help her worry and curiosity.

The result had been achieved, and Mathew smiled in his heart.

"I am fine..." He half-heartedly replied.

And it only made the poor girl worry more for him.
