Before I could have any chance to talk more the surrounding suddenly started revolving.
I quickly turned back but the World Spirit was already gone.
A mysterious force pushed me down, I thought I would fall but out of nowhere, a chair appeared beneath me.
I was caught off guard, a force which was much stronger than the previous time invaded my mind.
Yes, it was the same force to alter the memories I resisted earlier, but this time it was too strong.
I madly revolved the luck devouring lotus inside my consciousness. Maybe it was the fact that I was lucky or had a strong soul because of my identity as a transmigrator, I somehow was able to resist this memory-altering technique once again.
‘Now if I don’t arouse any suspicion, the World Spirit would not have any doubt over me, right?’
‘After all, it’s impossible for a normal person to resist like me after all that shitty Spirit don’t know my secrets.’
A large amount of information suddenly entered my mind-
‘It must be for the so-called contest between me and Leon as said by that Spirit.’
It took me a while to sort out the newfound info.
‘Fuck!’
‘You are playing unfair!”
Apparently, my soul has already entered the new world artificially created by the World Spirit.
The story goes like this: I am a fuckin bandit leader, yes it’s your low-level thug who robs people.
I was deliberately exiled by the City Governor as my parents were in the opposite camp. To suppress any potential rebellion the Governor ordered me to live outside the city.
Then it’s your usual cliche story, I grew up hating everyone, my parents one day disappeared…probably secretly killed by that Governor after all assassinations in political affairs are common.
I created a small bandit group and would occasionally rob people coming out of the city, somehow I always managed to escape from the city guards.
One day I saw a gorgeous girl…and yes it was Parul, I somehow managed to strike up a conversation but she was unwilling to disclose any details about her and left abruptly after leaving only two words – Night Lust.
After some investigations, with the help of my small bandit friends, I later found out that she was a dancer at Night Lust, a hidden nightclub operating secretly in the city which serves as a place to satisfy the lust of the high-class.
There’s no shortage of Alcohol and beautiful women there.
Parul seems to have a sister called Evelyn, they were orphans…to take care of her and her sister she used her dancing ability to earn some money.
‘Jeeezz! I am sure the memories of both Parul and Evelyn are altered in this artificial world.’
‘I wonder how Parul will feel when she later recovers her memories and realizes she was treating her once life-death enemy as a sister.’
‘It will be surely an interesting scent to watch!’
As I continued to sort all the new information in my mind, my face changed colours.
Yes, Parul as a top beauty caught the eye of the son of the City Governor and the entire city knows that he has been trying to woo her for the past 2 months.
And here comes the twist, the name of that son of the Governor is Leon.
Lastly, the Governor family has a secret space-related artifact…
‘This must be the harem artifact that I requested from that World Spirit.’
Now I had a clear idea of the situation I was facing.
If you look from common sense, I was destined to lose this battle.
I could already see how the story would unfold, I will try to impress Parul whom I took fancy earlier and would eventually evoke the anger of Leon.
Upon confrontation with him, I will lack any strong support or backing and the Governor family with a little investigation would find out my identity as the son of opposing parents whom they killed secretly in the past, and then they will definitely use this opportunity to kill me openly…. After all, the weeds must be cut down completely.
Even if I managed to woo Parul, would she accept my identity as an exiled/ bandit who had done countless shameless things over the years?
Probably the only way is to force her but if I do that I will only get her body and not her heart.
I also lack time to impress her in a dignified manner.
Clearly, it’s a battle I am destined to lose, the protagonist Leon has a clear advantage here.
He is strong both politically and socially.
But then again I said if we looked at it from common sense!
Since I retain my memories, I am different.
The World Spirit who is probably secretly watching our actions would never expect what I am going to do!
Since I remember everything, I know this is an artificial world but our souls projected here are real, my strength, my sword techniques….no one can take them away from it.
Suddenly a buzzing sound was heard in my ears.
The legendary sword with Eve as the artifact spirit which was lying beside the luck-devouring lotus was sending tremors of excitement.
I could clearly feel it’s unyielding character as if saying to me- Don’t worry, you have got me!
‘Yes, even if it’s an SSS class impossible-mode mission…I will try my best.’
At this moment I heard a voice,
“Captain, we were discussing how can we force that stubborn Parul after abducting her naive sister Evelyn.”
“Why do you seem so lost all of a sudden?”
-spoke one of my bandit subordinates.
I looked all around…
“Hmm, interesting so I am sitting inside my bandit hideout right now”, I spoke ignoring the person who spoke earlier.
“Kidnap?? We are gonna go a different route, my dear!”
…
A/N – the next ch kinda hard for me to write cuz of the plot and vivid details, but I am trying my best.
