Conquering The Game's World

Chapter 105  Issues!

"Um, Luis, will it be alright if the Elven Royal Family becomes our backer openly?" Alicia asked with a frown. If a country supports a major family from another country, won't it cause national issues?

Luis understood her concerns and explained.

"Even if the Esperia Kingdom supports us, it won't be counted as treason, given the relationship between Grandpa and the Elven Hero King."

Alicia nodded in understanding, but David looked at Luis with a frown and said.

"We can think about those matters after the Esperia Kingdom decides to support us."

Then, with a stern expression, he continued.

"Although I don't know where your confidence comes from. But remember Luis, what you intend to do is not a simple matter. Also, no matter your potential, you are only an E rank for now. You can't even be counted as a low-rank fighting power of these major forces you are planning to control."

"So don't overestimate yourself and first focus on becoming stronger."

When David said those words, Ronald and Lumine were sitting quietly, with no intention of speaking out. Because they knew what he said was correct.

Luis was indeed too weak at the moment. If not for their trust in him, what he said would only be considered as his lofty ideals.

David turned to look at Alicia and warned.

"You too! Remember your current strength! Don't think about revenge unless you have the strength to take it with your own hands!"

At this moment, Alicia once again understood how insignificant her strength was compared to her ideals, and her desire to become stronger burned even more intensely.

Luis understood David's thoughts and wasn't upset in the slightest. With a smile on his face, he said, "Don't worry, Uncle David, everything I said just now is a long-term plan. I don't intend to take any risks until I'm completely sure about it."

After a moment, David nodded and said. "If you understand, I'm relieved."

Looking at everyone who was in their thoughts. Luis gave a soft smile while signing inwardly.

'Phew~ after leading the conversation in many different directions, I finally managed to make them forget about my talk regarding Alicia with Thomas.'

'Fortunately, everything went as I wanted. When I talked about Aunt Maria while trying to make them interested in her origin. I was worried for a second. Because in her statement, she never said that the place she wanted to return was her home. Thankfully, no one pointed it out.'

'Well, it's not like I was lying. Since it is the truth, but if they had asked that question. It might have made things more difficult to explain.'

Just when Luis was sighing in relief.

*Clap*

A clap sounded, and then the next moment Lumine's words sounded in his ears like a heavy hammer falling on his peaceful heart.

"Okay, since all the complicated talk is over. We can end today's family meeting with the last question."

Giving Luis a wide grin, Lumine uttered the question he least wanted to hear.

"Why did Luis say those lies about Alicia in front of Thomas?"

Alicia wasn't in the mood to discuss these things anymore. But since her mother-in-law had already brought up the topic, she decided to cooperate with her.

Giving Luis a dissatisfied look, she snorted and turned her head away as if angry at him.

'Hey, at least try to be sincere when you act. It's too deliberate to make people believe in you.'

He has a Performer Talent. Can't he see her obvious amateurish performance?

'But still Mom, what kind of resentments do you have with me to give me these headaches?'

When he looked at Lumine, Luis immediately rolled his eyes. Because she was looking at them with an excited expression on her face.

'Ah well, it seems there's no resentment. She is just interested in the drama.'

Ronald sighed, shaking his head at Lumine's behaviour of lighting the fire.

David didn't intend to be involved anymore. In today's conversation, he had many ups and downs. Moreover, Luis helped him with his words when he was depressed.

Even if he tried, he couldn't get angry at him today. But only have feelings of gratefulness.

'Sigh, whatever, let's just let the kids settle it among themselves for today.'

'Anyway, it's not like Alicia can keep her pretence anger for long.'

David knew that Luis would somehow ease Alicia's emotions. So he wasn't worried about them.

...

Under everyone's curious eyes and Alicia's dissatisfied eyes. Luis stood up from his seat and calmly walked towards Alicia.

Then, before Alicia had the time to be surprised, Luis immediately picked her up and brought her into his embrace.

"Wh-What are you doing?!"

The three adults were witnessing everything with their mouths hanging wide.

Alicia was about to use her strength to push him when Luis' gentle words sounded in her right ear.

"Are you angry with me, Alicia?"

"O-Of course, WHY WON'T I BE?!" Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Feeling his hot breath tickling her ear, Alicia shuttered, suppressing her flustered heart and shouted as if showing her anger.

Unfortunately, her attempts failed. Since everyone understood from her reaction that Alicia had faltered.

"Oh? Is that so?" Luis' voice sounded, and his tone was a bit depressed.

Hearing his sad tone, Alicia thought that she might have been a little too hard on him. So she immediately asked in a low voice, trying to be as soft as possible. "Why did you have to say those lies in front of everyone?"

"Hmm?" Luis showed a confused look and uttered, "But it wasn't a complete lie, though."

His words shocked not only Alicia, but everyone else in the room. But before they could say anything. Luis continued.

"I've already told you before, Alicia. Half of what I said was indeed a lie. It's a lie that I reluctantly accepted you."

"But the other half of what I said was my imagination, since that is something only you can answer. Though I do wish for it to be real."

Looking into her eyes with a bright smile, he asked.

"I wonder if my fiancee is madly in love with me?!"
