When the huge pressure descended, even with his cultivation and accumulated strength, he could only stay still as blood began to ooze from his nose.
"Ohhh, not bad for an intruder," a voice sounded, and then a figure appeared.
She had long violet hair that flowed down her back, and her skin was smooth and pale. Her eyes were deep and bright, giving her a cold but beautiful look.
She wore elegant clothes that fit her figure perfectly, making her stand out even more. Her full chest and graceful body gave off a dangerous charm that was hard to ignore.
Even Alexander was love-struck by this woman. She was so charming and beautiful that her beauty could not be described.
Even Lavia, his so-called fiancée that he had already let go was nothing compared to her. But how come he had never seen her before?
As he wondered trying to understand this, he then remembered that this bastard had not even taken a step toward the library, so how could he have seen this beauty?
The woman seeing him looking at her. Her eyes were piercing, but as she looked into his clear gaze, she could tell that he was only appreciating her and was not thinking of anything perverted.
"Young intruder, are you not going to explain anything? If not, this library will be your grave," she said, her violet lips smirking devilishly.
She had already memorized everyone in this house, also if there's going to be a guest. She was the first to be noticed, clearly this young man must really be an intruder.
Then, without any kind of preparation a purple vine began to sprout from the cemented floor.
Sensing danger, Alexander right leg began to turn an eerie dark color. Then it was unleashed, sparking with dark lightning, and in just a blink of an eye, he disappeared moving at lightning speed toward the shelves.
Seeing this, the woman was shocked as her gaze followed him, and he was already 100 meters away from her.
If the library were much bigger, this distance would not be Alexander's limit at all.
"Wow, what a fast runner you are. No wonder you are not afraid of intruding here," she said with a playful smile.
Then the vines on the floor sprouted and suddenly rushed toward him at great speed. Seeing the incoming attack, Alexander knew that he was in danger if he could not dodge it.
The moment he tried to run again, a vine suddenly wrapped around his legs, pulling him down to the ground.
It was so strong that it felt like iron chains were binding him.
"Oh shit," he said with a pale face.
Seeing this, the woman laughed as the flying vines were just inches away from him. Then his eyes burned with lightning sparks.
[Stormbreaker Activated]
[Acceleration Activated]
[Nature Detected]
The system called out, as not only the vines were present in the room, but flowers, grass, and other plants began to slowly appear around it, detecting that he was in a forest-like environment.
This added buffs onto him.
Then with a powerful burst of speed, he felt his right leg burn with intensity, and with a whooshing sound, he broke through the sound barrier.
It only took a second before he arrived close to the woman, and as he spread his hand, he pulled her into a hug, leaving her shocked by the sudden burst of speed and the unexpected contact.
"You sly bra-" she did not finish what she said when Alexander moved again.
He twisted his body and slipped behind her in one smooth move, locking his arms around her shoulders.
His leg hooked around hers, pulling her balance away as he dragged her down. The two of them crashed to the ground, but he kept his hold tight, pinning her arms in place.
The woman seeing what she did to her, felt ashamed and mad, with all of her life this is the first time she was embarrassed by an intruder.
And a little brat at that, as she struggled but his grip was firm and left her no room to move.
"Madam, please calm down. It was all an accident. I am not an intruder, I swear," Alexander said, his lips close to the back of her ear.
Her ears turned red since his breathe hot making her face flushed.
"There is no point in talking now. I will kill you, you little brat!" she growled.
Then, all of a sudden, a foreboding strength surged from the woman.
Her eyes turned a blinding purple, and the air around her became a thick purple fog. As Alexander breathed it in, he smelled a strong scent of flowers, but then—
[You have been inflicted with 'Poisoned']
[You have been inflicted with 'Paralyzed']
[You have been inflicted with 'Weakness']
[You have been inflicted with 'MotionSickness']
"What?!" Alexander was shocked.
This was a lot of debuffs for him, and then he felt that he could not move his body. His eyes felt like they were spinning, and he felt that his strength was also drained.
He even felt that he was slowly dying because of the poison. This made him let go of the woman as she stood up gracefully and fixed herself.
"Consider this a gift before you die. Touching me directly can already be considered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you little kid," she said coldly.
Alexander, who was lying on the floor was weak in strength and struggling to breathe but was able to utter his final words.
"Nooott annn intruuudeerrr… ittt'sss mmmeeee… Allleeexxxaaannderr~~" he said in a hoarse voice, struggling to speak.
Even though it was just a whisper, the woman could hear it clearly. Hearing this, she looked at him again, trying to compare him to that fat man, but nothing seemed to match at all.
But just to make sure if he accidentally killed the duke's son, she raised her hand and a plant bloomed right beside Alexander.
That small purple tulip moved close to his lips and after that, it opened its flower, and a drop of honey-like liquid fell onto his lips.
His pale face, which had slowly been losing its color began to recover.
[You have been 'Cured']
Sitting up quickly, he took a deep breath of air while placing his hand close to his chest, feeling his racing heart.
But before he could calm down, vines began to twirl around him, locking him up with no strength left to move.
The woman tightened the vines even more, thinking that this little guy might have some tricks that could catch her off guard again.
This made her angry, since as a powerhouse at the Transformation Stage, her level was second only to the duke himself.
But here, she was almost incapacitated by a little brat, "Alright, speak now. Are you really that piece of trash?" she said with a cold look.
"Yes, yes..." he said, nodding his head profusely.
"You can call Mother or even Father to be my witness. I swear I am not lying," he said, wanting to move but he could not.
"Hmm,"
The woman looked at him up and down trying to connect him to that piece of trash but cannot find any resemblance at all.
Not only that, but this little brat is also so handsome to be an intruder, even she seemed to be mesmerized for a moment.
But remembering that she had been pinned to the floor by this young man earlier, her resentment lessened when she saw that he was actually handsome.
If his looks had only been average and still retained his fat appearance, she would have beaten him up even if he was the duke's son.
Then the vines slowly loosened around Alexander, and finally he was released.
Standing straight, Alexander looked at the woman who was also staring at him, and then she spoke.
"So, what brings the young master here? Tired of playing with women and gambling outside?" she said with a look of distaste.
Seeing that expression on her face, Alexander really wanted to slap her. The two of them had no grudges at all, so why was he being treated like this?
