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



If he snuck in beforehand and snatched the emerald dragon soul fruit, all that would happen would be his soul getting annihilated and devoured by an ancient dragon as his boy would be possessed.

Now he had finally arrived at this place after all this planning, how could Lucius hesitate?

He then took off the amulet around his chest that was still glistening with a faint red light.

Lucius looked at the wonderful enchanting ruby in the centre of the amulet and drew his sword without any hesitation, gathering as much mana onto his sword as possible.

Slash!

"Crack!"

With one sword strike, there was now a crack in the centre of the glowing gem.

Fiddling around with the cracked gem, Lucius pulled it out of the holding from the brass amulet and brought it near to his face.

The moment Lucius brought it close to his face, he was hit by the strong smell of blood and, without even realising it, Lucius's body began to react 

His crimson eyes went bloodshot as he was overcome by the familiar sensation of adrenaline being secreted like crazy and raging all over his body.

His entire body was soon overcome with the overpowering urge for battle as his body tensed and even twitched slightly.

It took all Lucius had to not rush out and look for something to start a vicious battle with.

Through his bloodshot eyes, Lucius couldn't help but show a little fear.

He had just smelt this divine blood, and his reaction was strong. Lucius could only imagine how much crazier the reaction would be after directly swallowing it!

Lucius was a little intimidated, but he didn't hesitate and, bringing the Crystal closer to his mouth, Lucius drank every last drop of the blood of High King leaving nothing else behind.

For the first few seconds, Lucius braced himself for a violent reaction but then…

Nothing?

Lucius soon let off a silent sigh

'I guess this is not so bad after all-'

Before Lucius could finish his thoughts, his whole face did a 180 as he hunched over with a terrifying expression on his face 

"Badum!"

Lucius felt his heart shake as if it wanted to explode right out of his chest! And the most horrifying part  was that things didn't stop there. 

"Badum! Badum! Badum!"

Lucius's body went red as the veins and arteries on his face and all over his body squirmed as a terrifying amount of blood was being pumped through them, threatening to burst them directly! As this was going on, Lucius was overwhelmed as searing pain shot through every cell in his body.

Lucius was so preoccupied with the painful transformation that he didn't notice the blood mist spraying out of his back, slowly forming into the  giant phantom of a man behind Lucius.

The face of the giant man was blurred, but you could faintly see that the giant's hair was cut short.

The giant's body was what could only be described as a work of art. Its body was filled with a tremendous amount of muscle, yet somehow, despite being filled with enough muscle to be comparable to even the greatest bodybuilders, the phantom's body didn't feel the slightest bit clunky or slow.

It was as if this wasn't some human body but that of a perfectly designed machine!

The giant's bronze body stood there daunting, as if it wanted to overwhelm the entire world

Veronica had been looking at Lucius's transformation with worry but when she saw the giant phantom that suddenly appeared, she couldn't help but gasp in shock.

Right in front of her, she saw the phantom of what she could only describe as the image of a battle god!

Despite not wearing even the lightest piece of armour, its bare body seemed to be deadlier than any weapon, as the terrifying fighting intent that suppressed the cave let Veronica know that this was the phantom of a being that was made for violence and war,

This was the phantom of the Barbarian High King!

The giant phantom tilted its head back and let off a war cry that shook the cave. 

Lucius felt his mind shake with the terrifying shout, but he didn't dare let up. 

The blood of the High King was now showing its polluting characteristics. 

It was just like a virulent virus, constantly multiplying and forcing itself into and transforming Lucius's cells with a mad fervour. 

It was as if it couldn't stand the weak human cells in front of it and wanted to not only purge them out of its sight, but transform it into something much stronger. 

If things continued at this rate it wouldn't be long before Lucius was transformed into a pure blooded barbarian! 

No! If he let such a brutal transformation process continue without restraint, Lucius wouldn't even survive! 

Knowing that it would only lead to his doom if he delayed it any further, Lucius reached for the emerald apple hanging from the magical tree, and for a brief moment, he even stopped to admire it. 

All along the emerald apple were the faint intricate drawing of countless scales interlocking in a perfect fashion. 

When he looked at it like this, it looked less like a fruit for consumption and more like a famous ornament that would be treasured and directly guarded by kings for generations 

Yet even with his admiration for the artistic beauty of the fruit, Lucius didn't hesitate to bite into it and swallow it whole! 

Lucius felt his mouth burst with a refreshing yard of sweet, freshly picked fruit, but Lucius didn't get to enjoy the taste for long.

As soon as the apple was swallowed, the tree quickly withered away, but this eerie sight was not without any effect 

"Roar!" 

All of a sudden, a furious dragon roar erupted in Lucius's mind as he felt his world shake 

Lucius suddenly heard a voice ring out in his head 

"Is it you? The one who destroyed my plan!"
