Chapter 33 - Soul Slayer

Chapter 33 Soul Slayer

Viscount Alger helplessly patted Jynx on her head and said, “You cause trouble for me every day.”

“Hehe.” Jynx winked at Viscount Alger playfully and said, “I didn’t cause any trouble this time. Grott and Ferguson were the ones who provoked Arthur!”

Jynx turned to Arthur and said, “Arthur, my father will help you. So don’t worry about what they’ll do.”

Arthur bowed and said, “Thank you, Sir Alger.”

Viscount Alger waved his hand, indicating that it was fine. He said, “Your strength really surprised me. You have a lot of potential.”

“If you can enter the Sky Radiance Transcendent Academy and continue to work hard, you won’t have to fear anyone in the future.”

Viscount Alger patted Arthur’s shoulder and said, “Perform well in tomorrow’s selection. I believe that with your strength, you’ll definitely be able to enter.”

After Viscount Alger said that, he led Jynx out of the banquet. Arthur thanked him from behind.

The stars in the sky were already bright when they left the ball.

The cold night wind blew towards Arthur. Judging from the weather tonight, it should be a sunny day tomorrow. It would indeed be a good day for the selection. Arthur walked to his hotel and packed his things. Then, he started a night of meditation.

Lu Yu, lying at the side, checked his points. Although he had obtained points from defeating Grott and Ferguson, the amount given was lesser than the points he would receive from killing them.

But it was still a decent amount of points. In addition to the transcendent creatures Arthur had killed in the wilderness, Lu Yu had accumulated enough points to conduct a simulation.

“Would you like to start a Life Simulation?” The system’s voice rang out in Lu Yu’s mind.

“Yes!” Without any hesitation, Lu Yu chose to start the simulation.

(100 points have been deducted. Life simulation activated]

(Year 1: You and Arthur met Jynx in Cantero City. Arthur offended Grott and Ferguson at a ball.]

[With Viscount Alger’s help, Arthur temporarily escaped from entangling with Grott and Ferguson. The next day, he successfully entered the Sky Radiance Transcendent Academy.)

(Year 2: After the extermination of the Spencer family, Carlo began her revenge as she constantly sent assassins to kill Arthur. You protected Arthur from the assassins using your power.]

(Year 3: Although Grott and Ferguson repeatedly targeted Arthur in the academy, he managed to escape danger every time with your assistance. Arthur’s advancement speed was extremely fast.]

(He made a name for himself in the Sky Radiance Transcendent Academy. Additionally, he successfully advanced and became an energy level three transcendent.]

(Year 4: As you killed more and more people, you continuously used (Blood-Drawing). The demonic nature in your body gradually deepened. Arthur inherited your demonic nature as the wielder, but both of you could still control it. On the other hand, Grott and Ferguson began to work with Carlo.]

(Year 5: Carlo couldn’t take it anymore and tried to kill Arthur again. With your help, Carlo died under Arthur’s sword.]

(Year 6: Because of Carlo’s death, Count Magnus’s son flew into a rage and sent people to kill Arthur many times. You protected Arthur from them using your power.]

(Year 7: Your demonic nature has improved. You could still control it now, but Arthur’s power was no longer enough to suppress it, causing his personality to change. Other than Count Magnus’s son, he made new enemies.]

(Year 8: Arthur successfully advanced into an energy level four transcendent. Grott and Ferguson brought more enemies to Arthur, but he relied on his strength and your power to defeat them.)

(Year 9: As he was in a hurry to break through, Arthur didn’t suppress his demonic nature. As a result, his behavior worsened, and he began making enemies everywhere. As you continued to absorb blood, you obtained a new skill- [Soul Slayer].]

(Year 10: Count Magnus’s son heard that Arthur was mentally unstable and needed help, so he tried to kill Arthur again. In the end, you and Arthur ended him. Count Magnus was furious.]

(Year 11: Under Count Magnus’s hot pursuit, you and Arthur began a life of escape.]

(Year 12: Count Magnus found Arthur. Arthur managed to escape with your help but was still heavily injured. Due to that, the opportunity for a breakthrough disappeared.)

[Year 13: Arthur rested for a year. His injuries recovered thanks to his demonic nature, but his strength declined.]

[However, your quality has improved from the years of battles. You weren’t far from becoming a middle-grade epic weapon.)

(Year 14: Arthur could no longer sit still and took you to the secret realm. It was said there was a way for him to break through to energy level five. He wanted to use this method and advance so he could defeat Count Magnus.]

(You both encountered two transcendent creatures five levels lower than you in the secret realm. In the end, the creatures killed you and Arthur.]

[Life Simulation completed. Current score: Grade B. You will inherit part of the abilities from the Life Simulation, and you will receive a talent!]

[The grades are SS, S, A, B, C, D.]

[Inheritance 1: A precious item from the Life Simulation.]

[Inheritance 2: The grade and rank you achieved from the Life Simulation.]

[Inheritance 3: A memory fragment from the Life Simulation.]

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining part of the ability from the Life Simulation.”

“With (Soul Slayer), your blade has a sharpness that even souls can’t resist. After activating this skill, you can cause massive damage to soul bodies.”

“Please make your choice, esteemed host.”

“I choose the second option.” Lu Yu made his choice.

Although Lu Yu didn’t become a middle-grade epic weapon in this Life Simulation, this was still better than nothing. No matter how small a mosquito was, it was still meat.

As long as he accumulated more points, Lu Yu might be able to break through the next time successfully.

After making his choice, Lu Yu felt changes go through his sword body. His demonic nature had increased by another notch.

Arthur killed many transcendents in this Life Simulation. Lu Yu was pleasantly surprised by the appearance of (Soul Slayer).

In this era, very few skills could directly attack souls. Due to that, many transcendents were restrained when facing soul monsters.

This skill would undoubtedly give Lu Yu and Arthur a lot of convenience in the future.

The next morning, the sound of people coming and going resounded outside the window. Arthur broke out from his meditation.

When he opened his eyes, he realized that Lu Yu had undergone changes again during the night!

An intense killing intent gushed out from Lu Yu. Arthur unsheathed the sword, revealing a sharp blade that could cut through iron like mud.

This sword underwent such a great change within a night. Moreover, it had only been a week since Arthur had obtained this sword, but it had already improved by so many levels.

Arthur marveled at the sight. As expected of a divine weapon that fell into the mortal world; no weapon could compare to it.
