Alicia stared at the red, purple, and black lingerie sets. Gritting her teeth, she slipped into the red one first.

Though she’d never worn lingerie, she’d undressed others before—so she knew how to put it on.

Just thinking about it made her feel awful. Her "tools" were gone, and now she had to wear women’s sexy underwear. What a mess!

After struggling to fasten it, Alicia faced a choice. The mirror showed a lovely sight, but showing it to Larry filled her with shame and anger.

She took deep breaths, widened her eyes, clenched her teeth, and yanked open the dressing room door.

Luckily, the private room meant only Larry was there to see.

Larry gaped at the sexy beauty before him. The red lingerie on Alicia was hazy, peeking through, shy and reserved.

Her pearl-white skin, delicate figure, and timid expression.

"So hot!" Larry gave a thumbs-up, blurting out.

Alicia bristled instantly. "You picked these just to satisfy your perverted desires, didn’t you?!" she snapped.

Larry waved his hands. "Alicia, don’t insult a connoisseur’s honor. I chose these purely professionally. But this perfect effect? I didn’t expect it."

He kept appraising her with "expert" eyes, sighing inwardly: "So beautiful. Why is she my brother?"

His heart raced—he’d even given his "first time" meant for his girlfriend to her. Why was she unobtainable?

Alicia felt his gaze turn creepy. She crossed her arms over her chest. "Master Larry, are you still ‘appraising’ me?"

Larry turned away guiltily, whistling. "Of course."

But as he turned, he locked eyes with a Japanese-style beauty.

Alicia saw Larry freeze like stone. Puzzled, she strode over and followed his gaze—spotting someone impossible.

"Mika?!" Alicia couldn’t believe she’d run into her ex-teammate here. They’d fled far away.

"This is... utterly shameless!" Mika’s face flushed crimson at seeing Alicia in just lingerie.

The shop owner rushed over, pulling Mika’s arm. "This room’s occupied! Sorry, I’ll take her away."

Mika yanked free. "No! I won’t leave! I can’t let this fox spirit steal Larry!"

The owner hesitated. They knew each other? A messy love triangle. She grew awkward.

Alicia realized in 0.1 seconds "fox spirit" meant her. Shame and fury surged.

She’d ended up like this partly because of these fools. If they hadn’t fought over Larry, collapsing the Demon King’s Castle, she wouldn’t be here.

No. Revenge time.

Alicia never held grudges—she settled them instantly.

Her cold gaze shifted to Larry. This woman craved winning over the handsome, cheerful, just S-Rank Adventurer (in Mika’s eyes).

Perfect. I’ll use him.

Larry shivered under her hostile stare. "What are you planning?"

"Just cooperate!" Alicia hissed. Before he could refuse, she hugged him tightly, cooing softly, "Larry, is this one of those crazy women my brother mentioned?"

Mika broke free and lunged to pull Alicia off. "Ahhh! Shameless woman! Stop forcing Larry! Get off him!"

Alicia buffed herself up, wrestling Mika while taunting, "You’re the fox spirit! Who do you think you are to Larry? Who am I?"

She clung tighter to Larry, ignoring his suffering. Her body was soft, but her strength wasn’t—she could snap steel bars like twigs.

"Calm down! Alicia, I can’t breathe!" Larry gasped, drowned out by their shouts.

Mika glared. "I’ve been Larry’s partner through thick and thin! I’ll stop him from straying!"

A cold glint flashed in Alicia’s eyes. Partners? Ridiculous. You forced my hand!

"I’ve been betrothed to Larry since childhood! Our parents met! We’ve even shared a bed!"

Her shout petrified Larry and Mika.

Alicia smirked inwardly. Let these fools imagine the worst.

"Betrothed" meant lifelong friendship. Parents met? Neighbors, obviously. Two guys sharing a bed? Normal when families chatted.

But Alicia got carried away. She missed Mika’s hand, drooping in shock, snagging the bra strap. With a snap, it broke.

Alicia: "...".

The flimsy fabric fluttered down, revealing her bare chest.

Larry and Mika reacted differently.

Blood trickled from Larry’s nose. Even after two viewings, this third sight overwhelmed him.

Mika sized up Alicia’s chest. Hmm~, smaller than hers, but better shaped.

Fury ignited in Alicia’s eyes. A dark, hellish aura erupted from her.

"You two... have done so well!" Alicia struck faster than the melee masters could block. Three huge bumps swelled on their heads. They collapsed, unconscious.

Alicia kept her terrifying expression, striding into the changing room. She changed into her clothes—even the intact bra—then faced the stunned owner. "All three. Ring them up."

The owner jumped at Alicia’s icy tone, scrambling to calculate the price.

Alicia dragged the unconscious pair, paid quickly, and hauled them out.

Outside, she summoned her magic broomstick. Before the astonished crowd, she tied Larry and Mika to it, mounted the broom, and soared into the sky—vanishing from sight.
