Chapter 51: Win Lord Hero’s Heart Strategy... By Florielle SeaBloom
Zorat opened his eyes slowly to a crack in his cabin entrance.
He’s been working all night, trying to unearth the runic chain for the earth manipulation skill he had replicated from Kaelara just last night.
And finally, he had managed to successfully complete this task.
This was only possible because he had already obtained the skill linking these runes, i.e., the earth manipulation skill.
Although it was still buried deeply in the fabric of this dimension’s reality, it still wasn’t a monumental task to complete for someone like Zorat.
Now he has two techniques under his belt, mastered to a level this world’s system couldn’t calculate. One is utility-based, and the other is offensive.
And as long as he isn’t mentally drained, he requires no mana to operate these skills(more like spells or techniques now), and they are as extreme in their efficacy as something powered by an authority.
Pulling up the world status window for himself, it currently looked like this...

Hehehe. It’s starting to shape up.
.
Bringing his attention to the entrance of his cabin, where the sound of the door opening had brought him out of his restful state, he saw that it was Florielle who had come in.
She greeted him as usual and started doing her job of cleaning things up. She made no mention of how the whole bed had gotten messed up the way it was, which surprised Zorat.
Usually, she would exclaim in shock, flustered as she asked him repeatedly, what had happened.
But she just kept her head down doing her job, while occasionally casting furtive glances in Zorat’s direction. Glances that seemed to show she was both upset with him and hungry for him at the same time.
Hehehe.... What is up with the bunny today?
Curious, Zorat did the only thing he could in this situation. He also couldn’t deny the enjoyment he gains from doing this. That’s why he gained the ability in the first place.
That is.... peering into the desires of living beings.
A flash of crimson wafted through his eyes...
.
Authority Of Mischief..... Desire.
~~~~~🔥~~~~~
If only my lord hero would see me as a woman, too.
~~~~~🔥~~~~~
.
Hehehe..... That’s new.
What could have triggered this sudden change, I wonder.
Zorat grinned as he watched her work. Watching the way her waist swayed a little more intentionally while she cleaned.
That’s when it occurred to him as his grin spread wider.
Zorat had wondered why Florielle wasn’t even worried about him after not seeing him for almost the entire day.
Considering she has loyalty as a skill and it is at a ridiculous S-grade, there is just no way she wouldn’t at least ask some questions about his absence.
So she saw.....Hehehe
Interesting.
Zorat was now certain that Florielle had witnessed his late-night hot session with Kaelara, and she seemed both sad and competitive about the whole ordeal.
Beauty-wise, she is on par with Kaelara, at least before her recent glow-up.
And her sexy body is just as impressive.
Zorat wouldn’t have minded giving he what she wants, just like he had done with Kaelara. After all, he now had his trusted blue mana stone for the job.
But he really wasn’t in the mood at the moment. First. He had just put in a lot of work with Kaelara simply because he had a lot to gain from her.
And she proved herself even more useful by awakening such a broken special skill.
Though Zorat was curious about Florielle’s own special skill, even more so than Kaelara’s, his intuition tells him the way to unlock hers wasn’t the same as with Kaelara.
He would, of course, enjoy her body fully if she offers, and he wants to. However, proactively going for it was just a thankless task right now because he wasn’t even in the mood.
He won’t be going out of his way when it’s just her desire. Zorat only fulfills desires if they’re important or relevant to his agenda.
And if at some point he feels like doing it with her, and it so happens to coincide with her desire, lucky her, then.
The dungeon exploration is happening in only a couple of hours, and he will be carrying out his carefully orchestrated plans for Erica.
Zorat’s intuition also tells him that Erica’s desire won’t be all that direct, and he will have to put in some work.
Fulfilling Erica’s desire was the most important, far more important than fulfilling even Kaelara’s desire.
Since Erica holds a piece of divine authority fragmnent, and he needs to fulfill her desire so his sub-authority of fulfillment can replicate it.
After that’s done, and Zorat, of his own accord, finds himself desiring Florielle, then he would follow his own desires.
Demons also have desires. In fact, their desires are the most potent. Being’s like Zorat had just gotten to a stage where they could choose to block or allow those desires to flow in. The only desire Zorat cannot resist is a desire for mischief.
If pleasure happens to be part of that mischief, all the better. Or he could always let his desire for pleasure run free. But that would be inefficient and totally unlike the mischievous demon he is.
Florielle, seeing how Zorat was just standing in the center of the room, his chin in his hand, grinning and nodding while looking at her, became flustered.
’Is it working ?’
’Those girls were saying if you want a man you should sway your hips like this.."
As Florielles’ head ran through those thoughts, she also increased the angle of her waist sway while continuing to clean as if she were doing nothing.
Florielle had decided, after much thought, that even if her competitor was extremely beautiful and a daughter of the grand vizier, she would never lose her lord hero to another woman without a fight.
So, she pieced together all the gossip she’d heard in passing from the other maidservants, and she had come up with a strategy to get her lord hero to see her as a woman as well.
She calls it the ’win lord hero’s heart strategy by Florielle Seabloom.
And it seems to be working already because her lord hero has been staring in her direction for a while now.
Florielle smiled shyly. It was only a matter of time before she made the hero her husband as well.
Though the size of her lord hero’s staff still scared her... but seeing as the young lady Malverin can take it all in and enjoy it like that... Why can’t Florielle too?
’After all... I am also a woman.’
