Help! I don't want to NTR the protagonist!

Chapter 139 139.Oscar's new choice

With those words, an explosion seemed to pass through Oscar's body as a crazed and berserker aura exploded from Lucius's body as his eyes went completely red.

All the time this was happening the hand around his throat tightened with each passing second

'How could I be stupid and forget?! This guy isn't normal, no, he isn't even human!!'

As the hand around his throat tightened and the bloody light emitting from Lucius's eyes got deeper and deeper, Oscar managed to croak out a sentence

"I.. I haven't told him.."

"Hmm?" As Lucius heard this his grip loosed for a second

"I … I said I haven't told Xander Any of the information I have about you!"

Hearing this caused Lucius to pause for a second.

He would be lying if he said he wasn't surprised.

The Oscar he knew from the book was one that wouldn't hesitate to use anything to climb up the power ladder so he was surprised he hadn't used and given such vital information about him

"Oh and why is that?"

"I don't want to work for someone like him, he's got no potential and is too much of a liability."

"That makes sense but why are you telling me this?"

"I'm telling you this to prove I have nothing against you."

Hearing this Lucius just snorted in disdain.

"Nothing against me, but you're here spying on me."

I couldn't help it, it was for my own self-defence and beside this I had another reason. I was interested in you

'Bruh what??'

Hearing this, Lucius' face morphed into a strange expression but Oscar didn't seem to notice this and confirmed speaking on.

"My interest is that I'm interested in following you! As in becoming your subordinate!"

As he heard this Lucius' face turned even stranger.

"Me? Are you crazy? You do recognise I'm just a commoner right, why follow me when you have the chance to follow nearly any noble you want?"

"Hahahaha!"

"Do you have an idea how most nobles look at commoners? No matter how useful or helpful I am, I'll never be an equal. The only thing that can make these arrogant nobles treat you as equal is strength but I know I'll never have the strength to rival those with golden grade talents. If that's the case I may as well follow someone who treats me as an equal."

what makes you think I would treat you any different, Hell what makes you think I would even need a follower in the first place?

As he heard this Oscar looked at Lucius as if he was looking at an idiot.

"If you don't need any followers then what do you call that girl Camilla? She has a golden grade talent and yet she follows you around like a shadow."

"Cough! Cough! Is it really that obvious?" asked Lucius, now a little embarrassed

"No, not really," said Oscar

"At first I thought you two had a thing going on together but when I found out about the gang and your connections it wasn't hard to put two and two together."

"That's the reason I don't mind following you. Even if it's by luck an organisation with two golden grade talents is nothing to laugh at." Said, Oscar

"I don't know if you know about me but I originally came from that sort of life

I originally worked hard to leave the hand thinking it would change my life

That's why when I got into Sanctuary I didn't hesitate to attach myself to a noble but now I realise it's all a lie ."

"Noble or not, the only thing that matters in this world is strength!"

"Besides, don't you dream of becoming a noble?"

"Oh yeah.." mumbled Lucius a little shocked not wanting to sound too suspicious

Truthfully the thought never crossed his mind. As the leader of the revolutionary army, what would becoming a noble have to do with him? He was the greatest enemy of the entire noble institution!

But of course, he couldn't act like that around a particularly astute person like Oscar; it would just be too damn suspicious.

Not noticing anything wrong, Oscar continued

And for someone with your talent, It's not a matter of if but when you become a noble.

"At that point, it's better to join your ship earlier than later, no?"

Looking at Oscar, Lucius's eyes sparkled for a second.

Wait? Isn't this Perfect?

Although he had come to Sanctuary to get stronger and capture the hearts of the heroines, what was stopping him from recruiting for the Revolutionary Army?

Hell! He could even recruit for the revolutionary army without these guys even knowing it?!

It was perfect! So perfect in fact, he was surprised that he hadn't thought of it before!

In fact Lucius wasn't doing anything special.

This was in truth, exactly what the higher ups of the Revolutionary army thought Lucius was doing all along

Instead of doing his job, he was using their resources to flirt with and seduce women all over the campus of Sanctuary Academy.

Looking down at Oscar, Lucius's red eyes turned calm and he paused for a short while before finally speaking.

"I don't mind if you follow me. As long as you can help with the things I want you to do I won't have a problem. There's just one condition,"

As Lucius spoke a crimson storm of electricity raged all around him as the mind breaking aura of a berserk dragon raged around him.

"Don't investigate me any further, clear?"

"Gulp! C-clear."

Hearing those words from Oscar, Lucius didn't pursue it any longer and turned to leave.

All the time Oscar was still watching with a little apprehension and relief. He just hoped that his decision to Join this strange man would not be the wrong one.

….

Shortly after Lucius was done with Oscar he arrived in his room but he didn't rest either.

Instead, he turned and looked at the reward for becoming Serena's student
