章 29: Sin of Pride, Superbia!
'Abandon...'
'Abandon your purpose of getting strength! Do you need power to find your parents?' The voice asked him. Was it because he was in front of the death or Avaritia's influence? But the young man truly started wondering about that.
'Do I need enormous power to roam free? Aren't legs enough? It sounds so simple...' Xue Ren was slowly losing himself...
'Abandon your woman! Are you worthy of her?' The voice again asked. The young man who was already losing himself started to doubt...
'Since I am this weak, I guess I am not...' It was as if the time has been frozen. Xue Ren could only think and answer those questions...
'Abandon yourself...'
'Abandon yourself...' What does it mean? Should he abandon everything and start his life anew? The normal life of commoner... But then, he truly would abandon everything...
The chances of meeting his parents would fall to basically zero. Sho Yue would abandon him in order to go to higher worlds. He himself wouldn't be able to fulfill Endrun's wish, to repay the vampire... Di Xun would advance with her Divinity as well... Huo Ning with his talent would become popular in Di School... As a commoner, would he have any rights to even talk with them?
"NO! I won't abandon anyone! I already have decided to aim high! No matter how dangerous it is, I will walk on this road! If I am not worthy, then I am going to become one! I am Xue Ren! I will fulfil my desires!"
It was then! The time began moving once more! The Avaritia feeling the victory pushed forward!
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Xue Ren's heart was thumping faster and faster! Such feeling... he knew what it meant! The another throne was awakening! No! It was already awakened as it asked him those questions... The throne that has showed signs was far, far away. It was hardly noticeable. The dark energy came from it as it went towards the frog! The dark energy was fully dark unlike Avaritia's... Soon, it formed a sword that pierced the monster from behind...
'This energy!' the frog turned around to the source of the energy. Using this, Xue Ren backed to the Endrun. Then, he knelt down and started breathing heavily...
"It's one of the thrones, right?" Endrun asked cautiously.
"Yes, is there something wrong?"
"Focus your awareness, this energy is similar to the greed..." Endrun told him worriedly.
"!"
Soon, the sound of heels resounded throughout the soul room. Then, the ravishing beauty appeared out of the darkness. Wearing white dress with her white, long hair, she truly could be called 'White Lady'. If not for the dark energy that was coming from her whole body and her black eyes! Her eyeballs were fully black with white hole as if eyes... With her slow and graceful movement, she caught all the attention! But the frog, that was feeling the energy shouted with fear!
"HOW ARE YOU ALIVE?! We made sure to kill you thoroughly! To obliterate you!"
"Worrying about that is not something you should be doing right now." The woman said with her head high. Then, she waved her hand and another sword formed piercing the frog's stomach...
"Blurgh..." The frog has vomited a blood which quickly disappeared. The white woman wouldn't let him blasphemy her place...
Behind the monster, Xue Ren and Endrun were looking at the situation with worried expressions. But both men were worried for a different reasons...
"Was I a woman?" Xue Ren mumbled with strange voice... If he started reminiscing about this life's past, wouldn't that create a discomfort?
"What are you talking about..." The vampire facepalmed! He had learned that from Xue Ren's memories... Anyway!
"She is probably sin like Avaritia..."
The battle between Avaritia and white woman was one sided. The countless swords already have pierced his whole body. The blood that was dripping from him disappeared every time it touched the floor...
"How can you have a host that is divinity?" Knowing that he is already dead, Avaritia began his questioning...
"How come you possess such strength after death..." The sins can't die... When they die, they resurrect themselves in inflants or search for easy hosts by instinct... Then, they have to grow their strength from the beginning...
"You no longer have any qualifications to talk to me..." the white lady slowly raised her hand. The dark energy moved swiftly as it created ten swords. The swords didn't wait, they immediately pierced him and ended his life... But it was only this life... Soon, he definitely will resurrect...
"SUPERBIA!" the monster screamed. It was his last scream as he dissipated...
The white lady then turned her eyes to Xue Ren. With slow walk, she moved towards him...
"Sin of pride, Superbia." the white woman introduced herself with imposing tone.
Outside of the soul room. Xue Ren and Li Rong both were lying motionlessly. Soon, the young master has opened his eyes. And that's all he could do! He had contract with sin of greed. Because of that, he believed that he is chosen one... But now, that both contract and Avaritia have disappeared, Li Rong knew he is already dead...
He moved his eyes to the Xue Ren... 'Who that fuck is he?' To beat him and Avaritia... 'Maybe he is the chosen one...' Li Rong closed his eyes as he waited for his death...
Sho Yue! She was sitting on Xue Ren that was lying on the ground. The Black Tigress could feel that the foreign energy has disappeared from Xue Ren, thus, she leisurely lied on him as she waited for him to wake up. But then, she sensed Di Xun moving towards them.
Di Xun! She released herself from the trap and healed using some kind of pills from her family. With stagger in her steps, she approached Xue Ren. Kneeling, she touched his face softly...
"I am sorry... If I wasn't careless, you wouldn't end up in such state... I am sorry..." the young miss cried... the tears incessantly flowed down her cheeks...
Seeing her like that, Sho Yue had an urge to transform into human form and simply hug her... but she believed that it's not time yet... She wouldn't risk her happy freedom with Xue Ren. So she decided to protect her just like she looked over Xue Ren. If the situation becomes deathly serious, the Black Tigress would move...
