Reincarnated as a step-dad in a fantasy world

Chapter 139 : Informing Grace about the artifact

"Speak," ordered Grace, sitting on a sofa with one leg crossed over the other, observing Alex across from her.

Grace had dragged him from the training ground to her room where they currently were.

"Speak? And say what?" asked Alex as he fixed his collar. 

Although he had asked her what she wanted him to speak about, he actually had an idea of what she wanted him to say.

"How did you manage to become this strong in such a short time?" questioned Grace.

'As I thought,' sighed Alex.

He wondered for a moment if he should talk to her about the artifact and decided that it was better to tell her.

Some might think it's dumb of him to do so, but it's actually the opposite. It would be foolish not to inform Grace of the artifact for a few reasons.

Firstly, he was certain he could trust his grandmother. She might be boisterous and sometimes impulsive, but he was sure she only had the best for him and wouldn't betray him no matter what happens.

Secondly, Grace was strong, immensely so. She was not only the strongest in their branch but one of the strongest in the entire Fiore empire and even the whole continent.

Alex didn't know how much time it would take for the organizations with the other artifacts to start searching for him. Perhaps they were already doing it, and they might knock on his door tomorrow. In the case that they come looking for him in the near future and he doesn't have enough strength to defend himself, his wives, and daughters, who would save them? Most likely Grace. That's why he didn't hesitate and told her everything.

He explained everything, from his lust artifact to how he gained soul points that he converted into strength. He mentioned the ability to copy the powers of his women and the fact that he gained additional points through sexual interactions with members of his family.

Well, he mostly shared the last part to gauge her reaction, but contrary to his expectations, Grace remained calm throughout the conversation.

"Ultimately, you're saying you become stronger each time you fuck a woman?" Grace crudely asked after Alex finished.

Alex nodded.

"You seem awfully calm despite everything I've explained," remarked Alex.

Grace chuckled.

"Although what you just explained is pretty wild to accept, I've seen too many things in my life to be easily shocked. Instead, tell me, you mentioned gaining additional points through intimate activities with your club members, right?"

Alex nodded.

"Then how much do you think you would gain by being with me?"

Cough Cough Cough

Alex was so caught off guard by Grace's words that he choked on his spit in disbelief.

"Hey! How can you ask such a thing out of the blue!?" exclaimed Alex after he nearly passed out.

He knew that his grandmother was someone who was blunt and said what she thought without shame, but still!

"What? You said that the stronger the woman with whom you are is strong, the more points you obtain. And if that woman is in your family, you obtain additional points. So, I'm obviously curious about how many points I can bring you since I'm your grandmother and am pretty strong," replied Grace.

"Still, it's inappropriate to ask your grandson something like that!"

"Please, did you forget who you are talking to? Don't act like a prude; I know perfectly how perverted you are," said Grace with a grin.

Alex scratched his head upon hearing her words.

If he had told some of his secrets to Scarlett, then it was safe to say that Grace knew about all his secrets since she always kept an eye on him, and the fact that the two of them were practically buddies didn't help him hide things from her.

'I really need to stop drinking,' promised Alex in his heart, certain that if his daughter and grandmother knew his secrets, it was mostly because he revealed them when he was drunk.

'Still, I'm also curious about how much I would gain if I were to be with her. If the number of points I gained after having sex with Amelia were to go by, then it would be a lot.'

'Hey, how much would I gain if I were to be with my grandma right here?' asked Alex to the system, but even after waiting for a while, he didn't get an answer.

'I guess it doesn't know,' concluded Alex.

Normally, when he doesn't get an answer, it means that the system doesn't know.

"So? How much would you gain?"

"I don't have a clue," said Alex with a shrug.

"What to find out~" asked Grace in a seductive tone as she gazed at Alex.

"What? No way!" exclaimed Alex.

"Oh, come on, it will be pleasurable, I promis-"

"No freaking way, I'm getting out of here!" exclaimed Alex.

He stood up and quickly exited Grace's room under her mocking laughter.

After exiting her room, Alex glanced down at his crotch that started to harden and frowned.

'Nope buddy, don't even think about it'

Alex sighed and started to walk back to the training ground.

On the way, his mind drifted back to Grace and her words, making his penis throb a little. His mind quickly filled with lustful ideas, and he began wondering if he should take her up on her offer.

'Hey, snap out of it, that's grandma we are talking about!' he thought, chastising himself.

The current state in which he was was very similar to the one he was in when Alice had teased him that one night in her room. There was one part of him that was logical and thought things through, and another part that only sought to satisfy his dark desires.

Alex was a pervert, that's true. He was so even before fusing with the lust artifact, but even he had his limits. Having sexual intercourse with his grandmother was something that he wouldn't normally even consider, she was his father mother for fuck's sake!

However, here he was, having lustful thoughts about her and even getting aroused at those thoughts.

'I'm certain this damn artifact is messing with me. It's true that Grandma is really beautiful, has sensual curves, tender and massive mounds, a very big and silky ass that only ask to be squeeze- fuck I'm getting harder!'

Feeling that he is getting more aroused and the tent in his pants is only getting more noticeable, Alex began circulating his mana in his body in the hope to get his arousal down.

Fortunately, the moment he started to concentrate on something other than Grace's body, his mind cooled down and his arousal faded.

"It's getting harder and harder to control myself when in that arousal state," sighed Alex.

"Forget it, let's go see if Lilia can help me with my mana problem instead."
