Eternal Temptation: Awakening Sinful Desires

The Twilight City was located on the east of the Twilight Mist Sect, at the base of a huge mountain. It was a bustling place with hundreds of thousands of people living in it.

It was a commercial center for all kinds of goods and services, as well as a tourist attraction, with many businesses catering to travelers from all over the world.

The city itself was divided into four districts: the Eastern District, the Southern District, the Western District, and the Northern District.

Each district housed various establishments, such as inns, restaurants, shops, etc., that provided their customers with everything they needed to make their stay as pleasant as possible.

As Scarlet, Cecil, and Asher arrived at Twilight City, Asher admired the sight before him.

The buildings were built in a similar way as the Twilight Mist Sect, but due to the increased number of buildings, it appeared like a modern metropolis to him.

They were made from wood and stone in an old architectural style, with beautiful roofs made of tiles, yet some had modern touches.

The architecture was both impressive and unique; each building had its own distinct style and shape, but somehow blended well together to create a harmonious whole.

The streets were wide enough to accommodate two lanes of traffic and were lined with trees, which added to the beauty of the place. There were many different types of plants growing around them too, creating a beautiful scenery that inspired awe.

The people walking around were dressed in all sorts of fashions, from robes that were made of fine silk to modern clothes such as suits, jeans, and dresses.

There was no lack of variety here, and Asher thought that if one wanted to get lost in this city, there was no better place for it than here.

They didn't linger long, however, as Scarlet was eager to visit a popular place. After strolling around the town a bit, she led the group to a beautiful park situated in the eastern district.

"Isn't this place wonderful? Look, there are so many flowers blooming here!" Scarlet exclaimed while pointing to a row of colorful blossoms decorating the edges of the garden paths.

Asher looked at the flowers and smiled, admiring the beauty of nature. "Yes, indeed, these flowers are quite pretty."

He turned to Cecil and asked, "What kind of flowers are they, Cecil?"

Cecil looked up and replied, "Those are called Heart Roses. They symbolize fragile beauty and take several months to bloom, making them quite rare."

Asher nodded and gazed at the red petals of the flowers once again. They indeed resembled hearts and had a strong, sweet fragrance emanating from them.

In addition to the heart-shaped petals, there were small buds of green leaves that sprouted from the stems, making it appear like the flowers had tiny wings.

There were many other species of plants present too, some of which were unique to the region. These included the fragrant snowdrop lily, the delicate blue-eyed daisy, and the sweet-smelling iris flower.

The aromas of these different flowers mixed together to form a wonderful perfume that floated throughout the park.

Many couples could be seen strolling hand-in-hand through the garden, enjoying the sights and tranquility of the place. Others were lounging on benches or relaxing under the shade of trees.

Children ran around chasing each other while their parents watched from nearby tables where they were sipping drinks and eating snacks. It truly was a picturesque scene, one that evoked feelings of serenity and tranquility within Asher.

Seeing that, he put his hands around Scarlet's and Cecil's waists, pulling them close to him with a smile.

Both girls gave him a curious smile before Scarlet leaned closer to Asher and whispered, "Hehe, Asher, what are you doing, huh? Do you think we are your lovers?"

"Maybe." Asher responded with a grin as he kept moving forward.

They looked at him, dumbfounded, after listening to his reply.

Soon, though, Cecil recovered from her surprise and regained her composure. She closed her eyes for a second and took a deep breath, inhaling the aroma of flowers, which helped her calm down.

When she opened her eyelids again, she had a gentle expression on her face. "Asher, you shouldn't joke about such things." She said in a soft voice.

Scarlet, however, giggled as she stared into his eyes with amusement. "Asher, you are being very straightforward, aren't you?"

"Of course. You know that I'm an honest guy. And I always mean what I say." He responded with his eyes full of affection, causing both girls to fall silent for a moment again.

His response made Cecil's heart skip a beat as she felt butterflies flutter in her stomach and heat rise to her cheeks. Scarlet, too, became quiet, unsure how to respond to such an intimate statement from a young man that she had grown close to in a short period of time.

However, a few seconds later, Scarlet shook her head and spoke while pulling him forward. "Whatever. Let's forget about it. We should continue our walk through the park."

This made Cecil relax a little bit, as she was too nervous to discuss such a matter at the moment.

Seeing both girls' reactions, Asher chuckled inwardly to himself.

He knew that he had shaken both of them up with his bold move, but it seemed like neither girl was ready to admit her feelings towards him, despite the fact that they had spent a lot of time together and he had witnessed the affectionate gestures the girls displayed towards him.

Regardless, he didn't push them too much, enjoying the fact that he had caused such a stir in the women beside him.

The trio walked along the paths of the park until they reached the middle of it, where a fountain stood surrounded by various bushes of colorful flowers.

Many people had gathered around it and were throwing spirit stones into the crystal clear waters while wishing upon them.

Asher observed the crowd and noticed that most of them were couples who had come here for the purpose of making wishes together.

"It looks like this is one of the most famous attractions in this place." Asher remarked as they passed by a pair of couples holding hands while gazing at the shimmering surface of the fountain.

Cecil nodded and explained, "Yes, it is a very special fountain. They say that if the people throw a spirit stone into this fountain and make a wish to the Spirit of Nature, then their wish will come true. I have heard that most couples who wish here end up marrying after a short time, which is why they call it 'The Love Fountain'."

"I see," Asher commented, intrigued by the explanation. He then turned toward Scarlet and Cecil and asked, "How about we try it out, the two of you and me, together?"

"Eh? Are you serious, Asher? Do you believe such nonsense?" Scarlet questioned with disbelief.

"Well, what's the harm? It's just a fun little experience to try. Come on, don't be scared." He encouraged them.

The pair of girls exchanged glances between themselves before giving in to Asher's insistence.
