Origin Lust Sword System

Chapter 31 Rise Of The Undead



Cyrus had a perplexed expression when he heard about the minion part and thorough that this System was messing with him. But his rationality told him it wasn't possible for a 'technique' to mess with its practitioner.

However, the System was becoming more and more unfathomed by the day, and it had long left the scoop of Cyrus's understanding.

Still, his real problem was now this so-called growth-type dimension and how to escape from here while completing the quest given by the System.

Since this quest could give Eve another powerful form, and a new system function would open, Cyrus was determined to complete it.

Furthermore, there was the matter of Dimensions formation. Before, he didn't pay much attention to them, but now that he finally got to see what a dimension was capable of, he could no longer ignore or belittle this world that filled such dimensions.

Although there were only legends remaining in the slum districts after over a hundred years of detachment from the outside world and the Uniques.

But Cyrus was destined to mingle with the outside world, so he had to reevaluate his view of this world and its people.

Cyrus's eyes went sharp as he looked at the murky winds around him, 'I have to kill that guardian before this dimension can evolve to bronze rank. I have only ten hours to find the place where this Dimension Core is hidden.

'But how the hell will I find it in this massive place? Who could have the mean to activate a dimension? It must be someone with extremely high authority and background.

'My target should be the most prominent families with deep ties with Uniques and some sort of relation. And District-A is naturally the place where I will find the most influential families of the Slum District, like those Rank-5 officers and the only Rank-6 officer family.

'But if I still can't find that dimension core in their places, then it simply meant someone else from the outside had done this, and the top suspicious target is the Mastermind behind those needles.

'However, finding that unknown Mastermind location is akin to a searching needle in a haystack. I can't do all this in measly ten hours!' Cyrus was flustered at the end.

Because no matter which direction he takes, either ransack the influential families of District-A or go after this ghost-like existence, he can't do it in ten hours.

So, he suddenly thought of another method which a terrifying look in his eyes, 'If I can't stop that guardian from evolving in strength, then I need to increase my own strength even more powerful than that guardian.

'If I took advantage of this dimension, then those minions can easily be used as my target of killing.

'Since those minion's ranks will be half of what a dimension guardian should have, then I can complete the lust mission right here and even raise my strength by killing them without any worry about being pursued by anyone.

'Didn't this mean this dimension is more like an opportunity than a disaster to someone like me who can raise their strength by killing?'

The more Cyrus thought like this calmer he became because there were simply too many benefits for him in this dimension than danger.

The only problem was, can he use those advantages or not…

Cyrus suddenly glanced at Rita, who was still trying to break through with a pale face and clenched brows, 'I need to complete the first part of the mission within ten hours, and she also needs to break through….'

"Bang…"

The gruesome voice of something bursting apart as a watermelon rang within the silent vicinity disrupted Cyrus's thoughts, and he instantly looked around but didn't see anything.

"Bang…"

Another same type of voice rang not far away from Cyrus's position, and the next moment like a chiming bell, those bangs came one after another.

"Rita, come on, we need to get out of here. Something is not right!" He quickly yelled with a pale face before the lust sword started manifesting in his hand.

Those sounds and Cyrus's voice disrupted Rita, who couldn't focus. She quickly looked around and saw Cyrus holding his hitless sword.

But the problem was her condition was not so good as that cold wind was almost on the verge of freezing her soul, and the only thing keeping her sane was the remaining Qi which was also about to extinguish.

On the other hand, Cyrus was shocked because the moment Lust Sword appeared in his hand, all the old he was feeling suddenly vanished without a trace, nor did those murky winds affect him anymore.

Eve's curious voice rang in his mind, "Why is it so chilly here?"

Cyrus instantly felt a warm hand holding his cold hand tightly as he looked at the sword in his hand. All his worries instantly vanished. Here replied her with a gentle smile, "I'm glad you're here."

"You're reacting unusually warm today? Do you finally get bored with that vixen with you? Hmph!" Eve instantly started to show her displeasure about Rita with Cyrus.

She was always grumpy and jealous since Rita had started traveling with him freely while she was rotting in this mysterious space. But she knew she was important to Cyrus, so she could only taunt him about it and act angry so Cyrus could ameliorate her gently.

Cyrus smiled wryly as he heard Eve's familiar taunting. But he never got angry with her and only ameliorated her gently and kept her happy this way.

He knew how a woman's mind worked quite well, so it wasn't a problem for him to sway Eve, who had only a single-track mindset; to be superior to any woman beside him, and he just had to tell her he remembered it.

Eve suddenly shrilled in horror when Cyrus was about to reply to her and explain the situation to her, "Ehhh… what are those creepy things?! Cyrus, where are you!?"

Cyrus was alarmed when he heard it, but he couldn't see anything in those murky winds and quickly questioned gravely, "What things? Can you explain?"

Eve replied in an appalled tone like a scared little girl, "T-there are many skeletons standing in daze… Oh no, they suddenly looked in your direction!

"Now they're walking toward you. Run quickly they are probably possessed by ghosts!"

Cyrus's expression went dull when he heard this and finally understood where those voices originated from.

Realization dawned upon him, and he transmitted hurriedly, "They are not possessed by ghosts, but they are one of the Undead Race of Underworld, the Skeleton Race. Now I finally understand why this dimension was called the Skeleton Grotto, as well as what kind of resources this dimension needed to grow.

"All the living beings are its resources, and it is turning everyone alive into undead skeletons. This is terrible for us!"

"What are you yapping about? It didn't make any sense, and those creepy skeletons were getting closer. So why aren't you ruining away?" Eve naturally didn't understand a thing and quickly berated in an anxious tone since Cyrus was still not running despite her warning.

However, Cyrus still didn't do anything as he was tranquil because he had finally full gasp at the station and somewhat understood what this dimension was doing.

He took a deep breath and transmitted, "Eve, I can't explain the situation to you right now, but those skeletons are merely at their lowest level of evolution, so they can't pose a threat to us.

"What I need from you is to be calm and tell me about the surrounding situation and help guide me away from this place. I can't see anything because of these murky winds, but somehow you can. So, can you do it?"

Eve fell into a momentary silence before she replied, "Alright, but you need to promise me one thing." She was far calmer than before as she could feel Cyrus's confidence, so she wasn't panicking anymore.

Cyrus agreed without hesitation, "Anything you want."

"I don't know what is happening, but it's clearly a hazardous situation. So, if your life falls into a dangerous situation, you will not try to save Rita and leave her behind to save your own life!" Eve coldly uttered without any hint of emotion behind her words.

Cyrus didn't reply to her right away like before, fell into silence as he looked at Rita, who was struggling just to stand up, but clenching her teeth just for a chance to for life.

He sighed and replied, "She's a good girl, you know, and I need her now more than ever. How about this? I won't abandon her until there's no other way."

"I never told you to abandon her in the first place. I just want you to prioritize your own life, nothing else."

Eve didn't push the matter anymore after she received Cyrus's words. It wasn't like she was ruthless. It's just that she didn't care about others. Only Cyrus was worthy of her care, nothing else.

This mentality had become her second nature after she became a sword!
