Cyrus took a shower before he got dressed in a plain black shirt and sports pants and then came out. He saw Rita was not done as she was still immense in a cultivation state.
So, Cyrus won't distrust her and exit the room silently before he summoned Eve.
"Have fun?" Eve's sarcastic voice rang when she appeared and saw Cyrus was no longer like a dry corpse but was full of vigor.
She instantly guessed that he had already done the deed with Rita and absorbed a large amount of LXP, which made her extremely jealous.
Cyrus merely glanced at the sword as he felt the coldness around it had gone entirely and chuckled, "She's much wilder than you. Do you want me to tell you from the start?"
"Shut up! Tell me, do you like doing it with her or me?" Eve was instantly enraged as she questioned.
'Haa… what a familiar question…' Cyrus felt nostalgic and smilingly replied, "Of course, you're the best. No matter how many women I sleep with, you'll be my first and most precious one."
Eve was instantly delighted when she heard this. She didn't care if it was a lie or not as long as Cyrus admitted with his mouth she believed it.
"Good! I also thought about new techniques to try when we do it again. So, you better not waste all your power on that vixen, or you will regret it forever. Hmph!" Eve boosted with a somewhat seductive tone.
Cyrus was truly intrigued: "It seemed you have a lot of free time to think about such techniques."
"Of course, I always felt bored here, and only when you summon me can I look around." Eve's voice was somewhat sad and lonely when she mentioned her current state.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCyrus felt his heartache and gently assured her, "Don't worry, as the System said, as long as I continue to be strong, you don't need to stay in that place all the time, and I can also be able to visit you.
"That's why our focus should be to become strong, and that's what I'm going to do right now since this place is just what we need to kill some high-level beings."
Eve was finally thrilled when she heard this and was more motivated than ever.
"Then let's go and kill them all. I also don't like those skeletons. They make me want to puke!" She disdainfully stated.
"Let's wait for Rita to end her cultivation. It's about time she starts learning some martial arts and offensive spells now that she was already a Body Qi Tempering Realm Cultivator, and this environment is perfect for her." Cyrus revealed his intention without hiding it, despite knowing Eve won't like it one bit, and he was right.
When she heard Rita's name, she started to pester him like a little girl and threw a verbal tantrum so Cyrus could pamper her more.
But she didn't seem against Rita anymore as she no longer said anything about throwing her away or traveling with Cyrus.
She just liked to mess with Cyrus this way and enjoyed being pampered by him. She had already come to terms with having Cyrus multiple women as long as he cared most about her.
Although Cyrus said he was going to wait for Rita, it didn't mean he was going to wait sitting around. He was going to train as well.
In his previous life, he wasn't a sword user but a dual dagger user; these two weapons were completely different.
However, now that he has chosen the path of a sword, he has to learn it from scratch since the path of the sword is more straightforward than a dagger's deceitful path.
The only advantage he had was he knew many blade techniques and dagger techniques as well as some basic sword techniques just in case he ever encountered a sword cultivator as an enemy.
But he wasn't a person who liked to have conflicts with others; even if he had conflicts, he wasn't the one who wanted to take risks.
The sword's path was completely opposite, especially when he was required to kill others with his own hands.
Cyrus didn't put much thought into his sword skills because he was simply going against a bunch of mortals. However, now, he was going to face undead, and without proper skills, it won't be as easy as before.
'The path is sword is straight and destructive. But it's the most orthodox path that almost all the sword cultivators take since the sword was portrayed as a weapon of justice and heroes.
'But what everyone ignored is the sword can also be used for assassinations, and the Assassin God was also sword cultivation with his unique Sword Assassin Style created by himself, and he was someone who no one wanted to mess with, even gods.
'If he can walk the unorthodox path of sword and achieve Godhood with it, then so can I, and I have limitless potential over any known gods with my Origin Lust Sword System.
'Wait… Lust Sword… the path of Lust and Sword… the Sword Path of Lust! So, that's what that name represents in the System. How foolish of me to only figure it out now!'
The moment he understood this, something seemed to click in his mind, and the next moment, a torrent of information started to assimilate in his brain.
Cyrus was completely astonished as he found what the information assimilating in his brain was about. He was flabbergasted because it was information about the Origin Lust Sword Hymn's first move: Hymn of Awakening!
Previously, Cyrus had acquired three gifts from the System for being its first even inheritor, and the Origin Lust Sword Hymn: Mortal Volume was one of those three gifts.
But despite getting all the memories about the Origin Lust Sword Hymn in his brain, he couldn't access them for some strange reason.
At first, he simply thought that it was because he was too weak and didn't think much about it, and he felt the same when he tried and failed again when he was training Rita.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut now that all of a sudden, the entire knowledge about the Hymn of Awakening submerged into his own. What triggered it was when Cyrus only decided to walk on a different sword path with resolution and finally understand the meaning behind the System's name.
'What a fool I am. I could've done it much sooner if I only mulled over it before.' Cyrus smiled bitterly as he thought about his own ignorance.
It was probably his godly pride that was stopping him from thinking more profoundly about this before. He had such a mentality that he was superior to others.
However, now that he finally thinks about his future more carefully for once and has stopped thinking like the old lust god because of the difference in his old and new paths, so he could start his training, he finally got it.
'This Origin Lust Sword Hymns are really made for unique Sword Path, the Sword Path of Lust, and how to combine the two. What a profound technique. Just this first move is based on nine sword strikes combining into one Hymn of Awakening.
'Once the nine sword strikes were fully turned into a single move, a Hymn would be heard, and whoever shall hear it will also be its last time hearing this Hymn. What a concept, yet even I felt dreadful from it!' Cyrus felt chills when he imagined this terrifying sword technique being used upon him.
This sword technique was simply too strange, and it wasn't anything he had ever seen in both his life combined. So, he was now even more serious than ever about learning diligently from the System and discovering its mysteries.
At this moment, Eve's melodious voice sounded in his mind, filled with surprise and confusion, "Cyrus, what is this Origin Lust Sword Hymns, and why do I have the memories of this Hymn of Awakening all of a sudden?"
Cyrus was baffled by this revelation and instantly questioned, "You're saying you received these memories just now?"
"Mmmhmmm~ they appeared all of a sudden when you were dazing off, and according to the system voice I heard just now, I can practice them in my space. It seemed the System was giving me something interesting to do after finding me pitiful." Eve joked but was still curious about this mysterious sword technique nevertheless.
However, Cyrus didn't have such a thought since he was now even more confused about why Eve also got the same memories at the same time and about the same sword technique as him.
Lastly, the System was even telling her she could practice this sword technique on her own once she was in her space. This raises many questions.
Like one and most important question, if Eve can practice the same sword techniques as him, then was she really just a sword or more than that?
But alas, System never bothered to answer him after Cyrus inquired about it, and this only vexed Cyrus. Yet he was helpless and, for some strange reason, vigilant!
