Lord Of Succubi:Transmigrated As A Dual Cultivator In Isekai Of Magic

Chapter 274 274 Focuse

"You're right. It's risky and dramatic, but Monica has always been a risk-taker."

Nexus offered a reassuring smile. "Well, we'll have to trust her instincts. Monica has a way of making things work."

Realizing that he needed to find Selina and inform her of Monica's modified plan, Nexus decided to act swiftly. 

He nodded to Nora in appreciation for her insights before heading out of the Russell family castle. He was determined to locate Selina and ensure that their intricate scheme remained on track.

As Nexus made his way through the streets, he couldn't help but marvel at Monica's unorthodox thinking. He knew that her willingness to push boundaries might be the very thing that could make or break their mission. Deep down, he had a begrudging respect for her daring nature, even though it could be exasperating at times.

With each step he took, Nexus contemplated the unpredictable twists their plan had taken. While Monica's audacity was impressive in its own way, it also added a layer of unpredictability to their mission that made him uneasy.

He finally arrived at the drugstore where he expected to find Selina. With a mixture of apprehension and determination, he entered and scanned the room. It didn't take long for him to spot Selina, who was pacing back and forth with an agitated expression.

Approaching her, Nexus knew that he had to tread carefully. Selina was bound to be upset about the recent events, and delivering the news wouldn't be easy. "Selina," he began, his voice measured, "we need to talk. Monica has a new plan, and we must adapt to it."

Selina stopped her restless pacing, her eyes fixed on Nexus. She was clearly on edge, but the mention of Monica's new plan piqued her curiosity. "What is it?" she demanded, her voice laced with a mixture of frustration and intrigue.

Nexus took a deep breath, his words steady as he explained the latest developments. "Monica's plan involves provoking you for real, not just acting. She believes this will make Fitch believe our story. It's a risk, but it might be our best chance."

Selina's brow furrowed as she absorbed this information. Her emotions were still raw from the earlier confrontation, but she understood the logic behind Monica's audacious move. "I can't believe Monica is actually going through with this," she muttered, her eyes reflecting a complex mix of emotions.

Nexus nodded in agreement. "It's a bold move, but it could also be the breakthrough we need. We have to be prepared for whatever happens next."

Selina is still upset, and as Nexus mentioned the plan, she couldn't hold back her frustration any longer. "This whole plan is a disaster," she exclaimed, her voice filled with anger. "Monica is just using this as an excuse to sleep with Ni Yang and humiliate me in the process."

Nexus, well aware of Selina's feelings, tried to offer a measure of reassurance. "I understand your frustration, Selina, but we have to stay focused on the bigger picture. Our goal is to deceive Fitch and ensure the safety of the Russells."

Selina was still seething, cursing Monica for her audacity and hypocrisy. "I can't believe we've come to this. If Monica wants to humiliate me in the plan, I'll make sure to turn the tables on her."

Nexus thought long and hard about the situation as he stood before Selina, her anger still palpable in the air. He knew that introducing Crystal to the plan was a critical step, but he decided not to disclose his intentions to Selina just yet. The chaos of the moment had to be handled delicately.

"Selina, we need to stay focused on our objectives," Nexus said, his voice measured and calming. "Let's see how Monica's plan unfolds, and then we'll determine our next steps."

Selina, still simmering with frustration and seething anger, couldn't contain her emotions. "This is ridiculous!" she exclaimed. "Monica's turning everything into a mess, and I won't stand for it. She's a conniving bitch who's using the plan to humiliate me."

Nexus empathized with Selina's anger but remained steadfast in his decision. "I understand your feelings, Selina, but we must remain calm and focused. We'll address this situation together when the time is right."

With that, Nexus turned and exited the room. He knew that Selina's anger needed time to cool, and he had to carefully consider the best approach for involving Crystal.

Nexus couldn't help but feel the plan spiraling out of control, and he knew he had to discuss the situation with Crystal when he got back home. The thought weighed on his mind as he realized the need for a more comprehensive strategy to manage the escalating chaos.

The next day arrived, and Selina's entrance at the Russell family castle was marked by a storm of tension and palpable anger. Her emotions were raw, and the facade they had built for their elaborate plan was unraveling in the face of her genuine fury.

Monica, aware of Selina's seething resentment, couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt. She knew that the source of Selina's anger was her actions from the previous day. Her goal had been to become Ni Yang's woman, and she had succeeded, but it had come at the steep cost of Selina's humiliation.

As Selina stormed into the castle, her eyes locked onto Monica. "You dirty bitch!" she shouted, her words like fiery darts. "You've gone too far this time!"

Monica, though conflicted and filled with remorse, stood her ground as she retorted, "And what about you, Selina? Are you really that upset that I got to Ni Yang as well?"

The atmosphere seemed to shudder as their confrontation intensified. Other family members and servants exchanged worried glances, recognizing that the situation was spiraling out of control.

They all buzzed with an electric tension, Selina's fury and Monica's complex emotions creating a charged atmosphere that left everyone present on edge. 

As the confrontation continued, Selina's anger grew even more pronounced. She paced back and forth, her hands trembling with rage. "You've humiliated me, Monica! You were supposed to act, not to actually get intimate with Ni Yang!"

Monica, now struggling to hold her ground under the weight of Selina's anger, stammered in response. "I... I thought it was necessary for Fitch to believe our plan. I didn't mean for it to hurt you this way."

Selina's fury knew no bounds. "Don't you dare play innocent! You knew what you were doing. You wanted to humiliate me!"

The onlookers started gathering to witness the fight that was starting. They exchanged nervous glances, unsure of how to defuse the escalating tension or if they should join in as planned.

Monica, trying to find some common ground, said, "Selina, we have to remember our original purpose. This is about the safety of the Russell family."

Selina scoffed, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Oh, now you care about the Russell family? You're just using this as an excuse to be with Ni Yang."

Selina's anger wasn't subsiding; it was escalating, her emotions reaching a crescendo. In a dramatic flourish, she reached into her spatial ring, retrieving the Ice Dragon Sword. The exquisite blade glimmered in the dimly lit room, a symbol of her connection to Ni Yang.
