Chapter 27 27: Her Changing Heart

"He left..." Alice's soft voice sounded as she tried to pull herself from the table, the sensation of his dragons throbbing deep within her body.

[Task Complete - Swallow Some Dragon's Essence]

- Gained Advanced Driving Skills

[Why did you test me? If I were a system, you would have died!]

She began to help clear the table, a smile on her face noticing he ate everything she cooked, even the burnt toast, humming lightly as she ignored the voice inside her head.

It was true that she gained improved skills in business thanks to this voice, but not because of some magical or divine power.

Those were just the skills she developed in another one of the Novel's draft stories, during the main plot in every one of them.

'Tell me... Does Amon... Does he remember every single one of those horrible lives...'

[You only saw three of them... Why are you being so dramatic...]

'That's a yes, isn't it?'

[I'll take back the information about how his company will be worth billions in the future...]

'Tsk... stupid Tia, why act so nasty!'

[Maybe you shouldn't have stolen his virginity!]

Alice began to hum to herself, gently cleaning the kitchen and house before she prepared to leave and began to think back to the day she lost her virginity to test the system and because she was attracted to the new Amon.

- Morning She lost her Virginity, Two days ago.

Amon passed the keys to Alice, who was lethargic; her thighs ached with a strange burning and stabbing pain in her lower body; each time she moved, it caused her to howl in pain, sounding like a cow.

"I'm not dead... Ugh...!?"

[You are quite the brave little slut aren't you!?]

'Ah... it's you, the fake system... Merely giving me skills I would earn in the future anyway! Hah... stupid.'

[I can take them away if you don't shut up!]

'No, you can't, and we both know it! The only one you can freely help is Amon because you brought another world, Amon, to this world before his death!'

[Isn't that why you could spread your legs so easily?]

'Heh... Which woman wouldn't want to ride him? Even a single night would be any straight woman's dream.'

[Why are you strangely vulgar now? I am sure the memories you saw were not those types...]

Alice gave a bitter grimace; the moment Amon's dragon penetrated her hymen, she began to experience strange images, memories and lives in a split second; she lived 22 years with Amon.

Not just this life's memories, but one life where they got married and had two daughters, then she killed him, and another life where her father died and she did nothing as others framed him.

'Were those real...?'

[They were lives you have lived or might have lived. Yes.]

'Why did Amon suffer in every single one?'

[Because the supreme being desired it, he is the villain, an existence that must suffer and die alone.]

'Even though I loved him, I felt it even in that life... the moment I pushed the blade into his body, I realised the truth; before that moment, it was like something grabbed my arms, forced them to penetrate his chest... Speak things I never wanted to say...'

[...]

The system let Alice finish her words because she understood completely.

Alice fell back onto the bed, her hand stroking her lower body as her inner core began to cry into the skies, her body filled with a powerful black flame that began to temper her muscles, refine her bones and make her skin pristine and creamy like white jade.

'Why...'

"Why..."

Her little eyes filled with tears as she looked at the photographs of Amon on the sides, some alone, other times with a strange brown-haired girl, and there were several with a younger Alice who held onto his arm affectionately.

"The moment he died, I became free. All the force that caused me to hate him and think he was a criminal vanished... But what use was that.."

"He was already dead!"

[What do you plan to do from now on? Knowing that quest was to stop you hurting him...?]

Alice tried to get off the bed, but her legs were weak, like jelly, as she dropped onto the floor and began to crawl on all fours, feeling the cool floor help soothe her burning rage towards herself and this strange being.

"Make him happy... No matter if it's his business... Using me for cultivation... I want him to smile... A maid is fine, a sex friend is fine... as long as I can be beside him..."

[Stupid girl... This world no longer bound you...]

[You could easily run away the moment he slept with you, or rather the moment you kissed him.]

She shook her head as she climbed onto the black chair in the corner of the room, brushing her fingers along the black desk; where he kept the engagement ring for her in those images and memories she saw.

"System, will I remember more if I sleep with him? Can I ever make it up to him?"

[With my help and if you dedicate your heart, soul and existence... Maybe.]

Nodding, Alice plopped herself on the chair, leaning back, feeling her entire body screaming in pain and delight from the energy now improving her body as she smiled gently, still stroking the small black box that was inside the same drawer, same hidden compartment as each of the lives she saw.

'Please help me; I want to make it up to him, no matter how much it takes!'

-

Back to the present day, as she moved to the garage.

'Did you do something to me that night? Although he was handsome and gentle... I spread my legs easily...'

[My apologies, I merely linked your feelings with one of the many "Alices" Who loved him with all their heart, but sadly those were deleted and thrown in the trash before it even became a proper draft..]

'It's fine... Let's hope I can slowly show him I am different from those bitches who share my name and face and slap that supreme bastard if we ever meet.'

[Are you willing to stick beside him, even knowing you might always be nothing more than a maid or sex toy to him?]

Alice opened the door to her blue car, sitting in the padded seat as she tapped the steering wheel, her ignition button waiting for her to press.

'Do you think a man who can love me in every life, despite being forced or guided to that, would truly be able to hate me if I repented and helped his revenge?'

[If it were a sane man, maybe not, but Alice... Amon's mind, it's like a glass cup dropped from a skyscraper; he cannot be fixed and will only get worse.]

Her pink lips formed a smile as she saw her haggard self in the side mirror, slowly fixing her hair and makeup as she put some mints in her mouth, but the taste and scent of sperm wouldn't vanish anytime soon.

'Isn't accepting the broken Amon a part of my compensation to him? If he wants me broken, I'll break myself; if he wants my body, I'll strip myself; if he wants my heart, I'll tear it out myself and serve it to him on a golden platter.'

The system didn't answer, as the blue sportscar almost identical to Amon's shot down the busy roads, her handling almost perfect thanks to the system's gift after swallowing his essence, now drifting and moving between the slower cars with a strange countenance as he pressed harder on the acceleration.

[Alice... Have you not noticed... You are just as broken and warped...]
