Chapter 531 - 531: Lure
"It does look like an ordinary bracelet. What's special about it?"
"This bracelet stops me from using my powers as long as the person who placed this on me wants that. He could also use the bracelet to kill me if he wanted." Milena touched the bracelet.
"I heard the Warlock Council is technically advanced. You must have a way to get this thing off of me. If you can do that, I'll support you."
"A bracelet that can restrict powers? That's fascinating," the middle-aged man muttered. "Can you free me so I can see closely?"
"I think this isn't the place to," Milena said, smiling."Within seconds, this plane will crash on the ground."
The plane was still falling to the ground. Only the speed was slower now because Milena's powers were influencing the fall.
Arthur teleported in front of the door and pushed it open, and flew outside.
Milena also left through the door, taking the Warlock Council leader with her. When she stepped out of the plane, the plane was only a hundred meters above the ground.
She and her team members stepped aside, watching the plane crash.
All of them landed safely in the distance while a cloud of smoke spread everywhere.
"Now, I'm going to release you. But remember it. If you tried anything, you'd end up dead faster than you can say sorry." Milena freed the Warlock Council leader from her restriction and stepped back.
The middle-aged man stepped closer to Milena and touched the bracelet.
"Don't try to do anything if you don't know how it works," Milena said as she frowned. She didn't want the man to try to break the bracelet here if he didn't have any knowledge.
"I still can't see anything special about this bracelet, but it does have this white light. It doesn't look like an ordinary bracelet either. If it actually works as you described, this would be really fascinating."
He soon freed the hand of Milena before he stepped back.
"Someone was able to come up with a technology like this to restrict the Variants? I must study it! Can you come back to the Warlock Council with us?" he asked Milena.
"Come back to the Warlock Council? So you can't help me here?" Milena asked.
"I would need to know more about it. I don't have information about it at the moment, but I believe we can find more at our lab. Moreover, if we know its secret, we might be able to mass produce something like this. It'll be a game changer."
"Sigh, that's a disappointment. I was thinking I could be free," Milena muttered, looking down. She turned around and started walking away.
Thud~
The middle-aged man suddenly dropped to the ground, lifeless.
"If I wanted to go to Warlock Council, why would I ask you for help?" She said, sighing. "I was thinking you could help. Disappointment. Such a massive disappointment. It looks like it's better and easier to stick with him instead. I must win his trust and get him to take off this bracelet."
"You think you can do it? He doesn't seem like a person who can trust someone? Moreover, he himself breaks the trust of everyone. Those kinds of people are the hardest to fool since they're so hard headed."
"I can at least try. Even though I know that it's hard though," Milena muttered, shaking her head.
Feronia caught up to Milena and chimed in, "Why don't you use your biggest weapon against him? Use his weakness!"
"Hmm? His Weakness? What's that? And what is the biggest Weapon? Are you forgetting that he can kill me with a thought? Will he let me use a Weapon?" Milena looked back with confusion.
"Ah, you don't understand, Your Majesty. I'm talking about the weakness that all men have! He won't be different. We heard this story, right? He never had a romantic interest. And he's most probably a virgin,* Feronia let out, grinning.
"Cough! Feronia, what are you getting at? Mind your words. Don't be vulgar!" Yasmine let out, her face turning red like a tomato.
"Oh, come on. What's vulgar about it? The truth is the truth," Feronia responded.
Arthur, on the other hand, decided to stay out of this topic.
"So...? What are you getting at? How is being a virgin his weakness?" Milena asked. "I'm one too. I don't see any weakness in it?"
"You don't understand the world, Your Majesty. Men are creatures of their desires. And they are emotional fools! He never had a romantic interest, so he must be pretty weak in that department."
" If you can make him fall for your charms, what won't he do? If he falls in love with you, he will do anything for you."
"Not only would he not harm you, but he'll also remove this bracelet. Which lover would keep his lover in such restrictions? Moreover, he would also listen to you more. That's his weakness. And your biggest strengths are your looks and your personality."
"You just have to make him fall in love with you and then watch him dance on your fingers," Feronia said, flashing a cheeky smile.
"D-do I really have to do that? You do it! You're better than me. You seem experienced as well. You do it for me!"
"I'm not the one that needs to get that bracelet off, Your Majesty. Even if he falls in love with you, he'll still treat you as an enemy. Even if he trusts me, he'll still be suspicious of you. He won't take off the bracelet!" Feronia answered. "So you must do it yourself!"
Milena looked at Feronia blankly. She knew that this plan made sense. And it was probably faster too, but she had no idea as to how she would do it.
"How shall I do it? I don't have any experience in romance either. How should I make him fall for me?" Milena askew. "I'm not sure how, but he always knows when I'm being fake with him."
"Then don't be fake with him. Be your true self and just do small things that can make him notice you more. Don't come strong on him. Don't be too fake either. And try to act genuine. Don't worry; I'll teach you everything. After my training, there won't be a single guy who won't fall for you!"
Arthur scratched the back of his head. 'Just what is Feronia trying to teach her? Whatever, I'm not stepping into this mess. These girls will handle it.'
"Let's go to Lucifer to help him. I'll tell you more on the way." Feronia flew towards their place, which was circling in the sky.
All of them stepped inside the plane and closed the doors.
