Chapter 281: Chapter 281：[Forbidden Favor]

From the perspective of an observer, there are still many inconsistencies in the trial that Charles is currently facing.For example, it does not involve the upcoming inter-academy exchange competition, but that is ultimately from the viewpoint of an outsider.

Once truly immersed in the trial of the heart, any unreasonable or discordant elements will be subconsciously overlooked, this is the terrifying aspect of the trial!

It feels as if one has genuinely experienced so many events and that so much time has passed!

Miles nodded and said, "At the very beginning, when Charles emerged from the sky bridge illusion, he should have had a chance to notice something. However, at that moment, he was facing the pressure of Lucas, a Level 9 Beast Master."

"Of course, there's also the fact that his own understanding contradicts everyone else's. If it were me, I would definitely fall into doubt and confusion, how could I notice anything amiss?"

After Miles finished speaking, Jamie, Mason, and Xavier all nodded in agreement. S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The situation Charles was facing at the time left him no room for much thought, and the illusion created by Lucas, this Level 9 Beast Master, was far more terrifying than they could imagine!

All the books in that library were filled with text, and when Charles mentioned a book about curses, it would indeed appear there!

Only the upper-tier powerhouses of Genosha can truly grasp the terrifying aspects of the trial of the heart. The other young geniuses present did not think that deeply and began to discuss:

"Charles is indeed impressive! He went from being an unparalleled genius to a cripple, and he still managed to persevere for two years. I couldn't do that!"

"Not only that, but he also lost nearly all of his important people without breaking down!"

"Two years felt like a day for him. He went to the library to study every day and trained in the training room. It's truly admirable!"

"The gap from genius to cripple would be enough to crush me. Charles's willpower is truly strong!"

"Now the critical choice is here. If it were me, I would undoubtedly drink that bottle of miracle drug without hesitation, as there wouldn't be any other option!"

"What is that mysterious person's origin? They don't seem like a good person at all!"

Someone shifted their focus to the mysterious person. From the images in the illusion, it was clear that the mysterious individual was very powerful, but they didn't give off a pleasant vibe.

Hearing the discussions around them,

Jamie and Hale exchanged glances. They both knew that this mysterious person was from the Constellation organization,

and that they had interacted with Charles. They hadn't expected to see that person appear in the illusion as well.

It was evident that the illusion was evolving once again based on Charles's past experiences, along with Lucas's intervention, leading to this outcome!

"Dean, do you think Charles will...?" Hale couldn't hold back and asked.

In response to Hale's question, Jamie also felt uncertain.

Charles was only eighteen, and achieving this much was already impressive.

Any young person who had gone through what Charles experienced in the illusion would undoubtedly choose to drink that bottle of miracle drug without hesitation.

It wasn't just a simple miracle drug, it was an opportunity—an opportunity to reclaim everything that was lost!

It also involved Charles's parents, and Catherine, who died in the illusion, as well as the battle with Grace.

No one could resist this temptation!

Charles did not use the bottle of black miracle drug immediately, he was still hesitating, which was already quite remarkable.

"Is this really necessary? You're pushing him into a corner. It seems like he has a choice, but in reality, Charles only has one path to take!" Jamie turned to Lucas and said.

In response to Jamie's doubts, Lucas did not offer an explanation.

He replied calmly, "How do you know that all of this won't happen? Fate is unpredictable, no one can know what the future holds."

"Sir, there is no perfect choice. In this situation, no one would give up the chance to become stronger!" Hale couldn't help but interject.

Lucas did not respond further and continued to focus on the Light Staff Star Pseud in his hands.

This golden-quality weapon, while very powerful, was not enough to support such an illusion on its own, it needed to be combined with his special skills to achieve that effect!

On the other hand, the Emperor of Genosha, Miles, the president of the Alchemist Guild, Owen, and Xavier were all staring gravely at the bottle of black miracle drug in the image.

They discussed among themselves:

"That couldn't be the legendary forbidden favor, could it?" Owen said in a hushed voice.

As the president of the Alchemist Guild, he had only heard of such a miracle drug.

"It seems likely. The forbidden favor also has another name, known as the blessing of the gods. However, because it is so mysterious, not many people know the second name," Miles, the emperor, said slowly.

He glanced at Lucas and then looked up at the screen in midair.

The allure of the forbidden favor was not something an ordinary person could resist, in legends, it was said to possess a will of its own!

Anything that could be associated with the divine was not simple at all.

Let alone Charles, who was now at his wits' end, even the current emperor, Miles, would be tempted if he were to obtain such a miracle drug!

There is a saying that if one drinks the forbidden favor, as long as they do not die, they will surely become a Level 9 Beast Master!

"Having something like this in front of him, if Charles could resist it, that would be abnormal," Miles expressed his thoughts.

It seemed that the outcome of the trial of the heart was already determined, Charles would fail.

Zane and Benson also shared this sentiment.

Especially Benson, whose eyes were filled with endless desire when he saw the bottle of forbidden favor!

The mysterious person in the study had promised him something, but it was just a watered-down version of the forbidden favor. Even so, the Taylor family was taking a huge risk.

If anyone else found out, the entire Taylor family would cease to exist!

However, the risk was proportional to the reward. As long as they didn't get exposed, Benson could become an Level 8 Beast Master!

At that point, combined with the Level 8 Beast Master of the Taylor family who had fallen into a deep slumber, their ambition to become the rulers of Genosha would not be impossible!

Thinking of this, Benson worked hard to control his facial expressions and breathing, Lucas had not left yet, and he couldn't show any signs of weakness.

Soon,

In the illusion, Charles made his choice.

As everyone expected, Charles drank the bottle of black miracle drug.

Suddenly, a cloud of black mist appeared around him, which was the curse that Lucas had transferred into his body.

The black mist seemed to encounter a terrifying enemy, frantically trying to escape from Charles's body.

However, ethereal tendrils began to form around Charles's body, wrapping tightly around the black mist like lightning, pulling it inward.

Charles felt an intense heat surging through him, and his long-stagnant Beast Master power began to rise frantically!

In just a few breaths,

Charles's strength had already increased from a Level 4 Beast Master to a Level 5 Beast Master!

This was nothing short of a miracle!

Struggling to suppress the pleasure that came with his power increase,

Charles shifted his focus to his own body, he could faintly sense that there seemed to be another life inside him, uncontrollable.

"Was that tendril just now a manifestation of the miracle drug I drank?" Charles muttered to himself.

He was well aware that drinking that bottle of black miracle drug must have come at a tremendous cost!

Charles clenched his fists, feeling an unprecedented strength. He raised his hands into the air, somewhat intoxicated by the power,

and suddenly a thought emerged in his mind: he wanted to keep rising, to keep getting stronger, even if it meant doing things he had previously been unable to accept!

Noticing such thoughts, Charles did not hesitate to slap himself hard.

"Smack!"

A loud sound echoed, and feeling the pain on his face, Charles, who had just been lost in ecstasy, instantly regained clarity in his eyes.

"What's happening? It shouldn't be like this. It felt like I was influenced by something just now, is it the thing inside me?" Charles pondered deeply.

After drinking the black miracle drug,

it wasn't long before the day he had agreed upon with Grace arrived.

As a Level 6 Beast Master, Grace attracted a lot of attention with every move she made.

There were still many spectators for today's duel,

and when Charles appeared in front of the crowd, some were surprised to notice that his strength seemed to have increased!

Grace didn't take it to heart and said, "Charles, what does it matter that you've become a Level 5 Beast Master? My level is already your limit."

"Let me show you what a true Level 6 Beast Master is!"

The battle between the two began and ended very quickly, Charles effortlessly defeated Grace in a dominating manner.

Injured and kneeling on the ground, Grace looked like a puppet, unable to accept what was happening before her.

According to the signed human contract, she was now Charles's servant and could not defy his commands!

Unable to accept her fate, Grace trembled as she gripped her weapon, wanting to end it all.

However, Charles simply issued a command for her to drop her weapon.

Faced with the broken Grace, Charles chose not to spare her, he unleashed his desires and made her apologize in front of the crowd, repeatedly uttering self-deprecating words.

Listening to the sounds of pain and despair in his ears, Charles became somewhat intoxicated.

Looking at the onlookers, whose eyes were filled with fear and disbelief, a manic smile unexpectedly appeared on Charles's face.

He had a thought in his mind: he wanted to make these spectators remember this even more!

"Why not create a little art with blood, the art of panic!" Charles's thoughts grew increasingly insane,

and he looked at the eyes of the people around him, filled with impulse and anticipation.
