They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System
Chapter 212 - 212 Lora

Chapter 212: Lora Chapter 212: Lora “But I—I never really wanted to kill you.

I don’t know what I was thinking.

I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry…” She finally broke down in tears, her body shaking as the weight of her actions crashed down on her.

Nnenna watched in silence, surprised.

Maybe this girl wasn’t all that bad after all.

But at the same time, she couldn’t ignore the fact that if she hadn’t had the Love System, she would have drowned.

This girl’s regrets, though they seemed sincere, wouldn’t have changed anything if she had actually succeeded in dragging Nnenna down with her.

Still, humans made mistakes.

And maybe, just maybe, this was a lesson she would never forget.

Nnenna sighed.

“You’re forgiven.

But next time…” she narrowed her eyes.

“Don’t try something like this again.

Or I will let you drown.” The girl flinched but nodded quickly.

A small smirk played on Nnenna’s lips.

She wasn’t joking.

“What’s your name?” Nnenna asked her.

“I-I’m Lora,” she replied still shaken.

As the commotion grew louder, more people rushed toward the scene.

The sound of galloping horses echoed through the forest, signaling the approach of reinforcements.

Nnenna glanced down at the girl beside her, her soaked clothes clinging uncomfortably to her body.

Bits of leaves and debris were stuck to her skin, making her appearance all the more disheveled.

This wasn’t good.

If the men saw her like this, rumors would spread like wildfire.

The royal court was merciless when it came to a lady’s reputation.

Her eyes shifted to the Lora’s face as she sat there shivering on the ground.

Guilt and shame were written all over her tear streaked face.

Nnenna knew she wasn’t obligated to help her.

In fact, had things gone the other way, this girl wouldn’t have hesitated to let her drown.

But she wasn’t like them.

With a sigh, she spoke to the system in her mind.

“Love System, I need to cover her up.

Do you have anything that can help?” “Of course I do.

30 good points deducted for temporal skill acquisition!

For the next five minutes, you will receive advanced weaving skills.

You can create a temporary covering using the leaves around you.” Nnenna blinked in surprise.

Weaving?

Of all the things the system could have given her, it chose weaving?

She turned to the girl who wouldn’t take her eyes off of her as she tried to recover from the trauma.

“Lora turn around.” She said to her simply.

The girl turned around and faced another direction, no questions asked.

She had absolute trust in Nnenna now.

After making sure she couldn’t see her, Nnenna stared at the pile of leaves in front of her, disbelief flashing across her face.

Weaving?

A gown?

In five minutes?

The system had to be joking.

“Are you serious?

I’ve never even weaved a basket before, let alone a whole dress!” she protested.

“You can because I said so.” The system’s response was maddeningly casual.

She was about to argue further when suddenly, a strange sensation coursed through her fingers.

It was as if invisible strings connected her mind to her hands, guiding them with an instinct she had never possessed before.

Before she could process what was happening, her hands moved on their own.

She reached for the largest, most flexible leaves and, with precise, practiced movements, began intertwining them together.

Each leaf bent and folded effortlessly under her fingertips, as if they were silk instead of foliage.

Her creation slowly took shape.

The leaves wove themselves into a fitted bodice, making sure it would hug Lora’s torso perfectly.

The skirt flared out, each layer overlapping like flower petals, forming an elegant yet wild design.

The deep green shimmered under the dappled sunlight, making the dress fit for a forest goddess draped in nature’s finest fabric.

Tiny vines coiled and twisted into delicate embroidery along the edges, their patterns swirling like ivy climbing up ancient castle walls.

It shouldn’t have been possible.

Not in five minutes.

Not with nothing but leaves.

Yet here she was, holding a dress that no royal seamstress could have ever imagined.

The wind whispered through the trees as if nature itself was applauding her creation.

Nnenna took a deep breath, looking down at the masterpiece.

Her heart pounded.

“Did I… really just do that?” she murmured.

“You did.

But mostly because of me.” The system chimed smugly.

She rolled her eyes but couldn’t deny the overwhelming sense of triumph swelling in her chest.

Once she was done, Nnenna draped the freshly woven gown over the speechless princess.

The girl’s hands trembled as she touched the fabric like leaves, her wide eyes filled with disbelief.

A hundred questions swirled in her mind, How was this even possible?

Where did such a dress come from in mere minutes?

but she couldn’t voice them.

Time was tight, and survival came first.

She quickly slipped into the dress just as the sound of pounding hooves thundered toward them.

Carl and Somto arrived in a rush, their faces tense with urgency.

Somto barely reined in his horse before leaping down.

His sharp gaze swept over Nnenna, scanning her from head to toe.

“What are you still doing here?!

I heard there was a pack of lions, and you’re just standing around?

Do you want to die?” he rebuked, his voice laced with both anger and concern.

Nnenna, unfazed, lifted a brow.

“Calm down.

There was no pack of lions.

It was a false alarm, someone stirred up chaos on purpose.” Her voice was cool, steady.

Somto exhaled sharply, his anger deflating slightly now that he saw she was unharmed.

His shoulders relaxed just a fraction.

But then, his eyes flicked to the unfamiliar girl standing beside her, wrapped in the green gown.

“And who’s this?” he asked, his tone neutral but clearly uninterested.

Even though he had been surrounded by royals his whole life, he had never bothered to recognize most of them.

To him, they were just background figures, unworthy of his attention.
