Conquering The Game's World-Chapter 117 Cheating!

After touring the botanical garden for another hour. They decided to go take a look at the Moon Candle lighthouse.

"There are so many people here. Is this place really that popular?" Alicia didn't expect the lighthouse to be so crowded.

"Well, it is a historical landmark. So I guess that's normal." Luis said while embracing Alicia close to him and making their way through the crowd.

The moon candle lighthouse was made in the war era, even before the foundation of the Oracle Academy. It is said that this lighthouse has worked as a strategic point several times in the Great War.

When they came to a less crowded area, Luis looked at the lighthouse and sighed. 'Unfortunately, this historical landmark is a place destined to be destroyed in the future events.'

Turning his head to look at Alicia, Luis asked, "Do you still want to go up? It's crowded and may take a while."

Alicia had a small frown on her face as she was thoughtful, and after a moment, she shook her head and said, "Unn, maybe we can come again another time. Let's go to the next place."

"Okay, then let's go." Still holding her hands, firmly. Luis took her to the nearby Arcade.

---

When they came to the Arcade, Luis asked Alicia what game she would like to play.

"Bowling!" she answered instantly.

Hence, they were now at the bowling alley. Standing in front of a lane where Alicia was ready to take her first shot.

"How many pins do you think I can knock down?" Alicia asked with a haughty expression on her face.

Luis said with a chuckle, "Maybe half of them."

Alicia was instantly furious. "What?! You underestimate me that much! Of course, I will make a strike!"

"Oh, really?" Luis had a doubtful expression on him as he suggested, "If you are so confident, how about we make a bet?"

Alicia's interest was piqued as she asked, "What bet?"

Seeing Alicia's anger calm down at a visible rate, Luis smiled and said, "Both of us will take three shots each, and the one who has more points gets to make one request from the loser."

Alicia didn't agree immediately but narrowed her eyes. "What kind of request?"

"Well, you know, nothing too much," Luis answered vaguely with a confident expression, but his slightly averting eyes made him look suspicious.

With a poker face, Alicia looked at him indifferently, and said, "Let's set a rule. There can't be any excessive requests. If the other party doesn't want it. Then the winner will have to change the request."

"Have it your way," Luis sighed. He knew it was hard for Alicia to relent. But this was good enough for now. One step at a time, they were not in a hurry.

'I even have your daddy's blessing. How long can you stop me? Eventually, I'll have it all.' Thinking about it, he smiled evilly.

Alicia was unaware of Luis' evil thoughts about her, as stood in front of the lane, adjusting her grip on the bowling ball.

"Then I'll go first." With those words, Alicia focused on the pins in front of her and made her shot.

*Thud*

*Roll**Roll**Roll*

The ball made a left curve and hit the pins.

*Smash!*

Nine pins were instantly knocked down. But the last one only shook a little.

'Fall! Fall! Just Fall Dammit!'

Even though Alicia screamed inwardly, the last pin didn't listen to her pleas and still stood tall under her intense gaze, full of hatred.

"Wow, Alicia, you were so close to a strike." Luis' praise sounded in her ears, which made her even more hateful towards that bowling pin.

With a snort, Alicia declared, "In the next shot, I won't miss any."

And just like she said, Alicia managed to do two perfect strikes in a row.

Alicia gave Luis a wide grin and asked. "See that?"

Luis complimented her sincerely, "You were amazing, Alicia."

"Hehe~" Alicia giggled, then said with a smug look. "Now it's your turn."

He nodded and grabbed a ball, then standing in front of the lane, he made his first shot.

The ball rolled and at the last moment made a curve, striking all the bowling pins, and knocking them down.

"Well, that's a strike." Luis whistled and got ready to make his next throw.

Alicia on the side, as if realising something, frowned suddenly, "Don't tell me your Sharpshooter talent is also useful in bowling?!"

Luis' movements paused for a moment as he turned to look at her with an innocent smile and asked, "How can that be?"

Then he instantly made a shot and once again, it was a perfect strike.

At this moment, Alicia was certain. Her guess was right.

'Oops, how can I be so careless?!'

She felt frustrated as she gritted her teeth. She knew that if Luis didn't intentionally miss it, his third shot would also be a perfect strike.

'At this rate, I am going to lose!'

Although Alicia doesn't care much about the bet. But because of the feeling of competitiveness she has towards him, she didn't want to lose. Moreover, she had already lost against him in their battle before. How could she accept defeat twice in a row?

So when she saw that, Luis was about to take his next shot. Alicia knew she had to do something. Otherwise, she would lose.

'If I cheer for him, it shouldn't be considered cheating, right?' Alicia knew what she was doing was unethical, but she decided to be shameless and shouted.

"Luis! If you make another strike, I'll reward you~"

Luis, who was about to throw the ball, was startled, and the ball slipped out of his grip.

'Reward?! What reward?!' He was excited, but the ball wasn't in his hand anymore as it was rolling down the lane.

'Oh, no!' Luis panicked.

'Oh, yes!' Alicia was excited.

'It will go out of the lane!' Both of them thought at the same time.

It was easy to see that the ball was going way off course. freeweɓnøvel.com

'It seems I'll lose.' Luis sighed. But when he thought that, Alicia mentioned some reward just now. He couldn't help but get curious. In the end, he gritted his teeth and made a decision.

'Gravity!'

He used his spell to change the direction of the ball, as it made an extraordinary curve and hit all the pins.

That made Luis' three strikes in a row.

With a cheeky smile on his face that hid his guilt, Luis turned back to look at the shocked Alicia and said, "That's my win!"

Alicia, who was stunned, came back to her senses from his words and shouted while pointing his finger at him. "You cheated!"

Luis was slightly nervous in his heart, but still maintaining a calm expression, he said, "Don't accuse me without proof."

"That is the line of a guilty person!" Alicia exclaimed.

"What are you talking about?" Luis pretended to be confused.

"That curve, it wasn't realistic at all! You must have used a spell!" Although Alicia had no idea how Luis did it. She was certain that he cheated.

Using performer talent in full throttle, Luis chuckled softly and said, "Why would I waste time learning a spell that can help me cheat in bowling?"

Alicia couldn't argue with that, but she didn't budge one bit. "Even so, I am certain! You must have used some tricks!"

"Right! Lily must have an answer!" Regaining her confidence, Alicia asked, "Lily! Tell me, how did Luis cheat?!"

...

Lily was in a dilemma at this moment. Just yesterday she had been scolded by her master. She was worried that if she sided with her sister Alicia now. She might get scolded again.

But if she sided with her master, then her sister Alicia might get angry. That is why, in the end, she chose her right to remain silent.

Although Lily was an intelligent AI. Her emotional intelligence was not yet completely developed. So she behaved more like a child, emotionally.

Even after waiting for a few seconds, When Alicia didn't get any response from Lily, a frown appeared on her face. "What happened to Lily? Why isn't she responding?"

Luis checked his mana bracelet and was certain that Lily was still there and there was nothing wrong with her.

'Don't tell me, is she ignoring her?'

Thinking so, Luis immediately realised the reason behind it and chuckled, 'Oh Lily, I think Alicia will be more devastated by this silence of yours than the betrayal you were so worried about last night.'

Just as he expected, Alicia tapped her mana bracket anxiously. "Lily! Are you there?! Answer me!"

She turned to look at Luis with a worried expression, and asked, "What happened to her?! Why isn't Lily responding?!

Luis sighed. So as not to make Alicia worry anymore, he decided to help Lily cover-up. "Well, she is going through some updates. So she is unable to answer you at the moment."

'Although, the excuse is lame. Alicia should believe it, right?' He thought inwardly, but contrary to his belief. Although Alicia's anxious expression disappeared, a cold expression appeared on his face.

"You are lying, Luis."
