Chapter 479: Sins Trial Part 1
479 Sins Trial Part 1
In front of him was a tall purple tower. Leading Alex to this place, Zarall explained the trial. "This is our tower of sins. Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, Pride. Every creature would have at least one sin in their heart, no matter if we are aware of it or not. Even I could not let down my pride. As for the requirement to finish the trial… as long as you arrive at the top of the tower, you can grab our crystal there."
Nodding his head, Alex prepared his heart. Since this was only an illusion, he thought he was able to break away from it with his Spirit Eyes.
"You can proceed whenever you want."
The Phoenix Queen stared at him with a worried expression, hoping he would finish this trial.
Alex took a deep breath before stepping inside the tower. There was no door for the entrance, but a few Martial Kings were guarding right in front of the tower, making it impossible to enter normally.
Alex nodded to Zarall before entering the tower. According to his Spirit Eyes, this tower had a different kind of energy on each floor, symbolizing each sin.
Just a few steps after he came inside the tower, his consciousness was teleported to another place.
"?!" Alex looked left and right, observing the new surrounding with his Spirit Eyes. To his right was a dressing table, filled with make-up and the others. He found a giant bed in his front while finding a woman, wearing sexy and transparent lingerie.
Her purple hair was wet as she just took a bath, making her appear sexier.
Before he could call the woman, another woman came from behind and grabbed his hand. She had long red hair and a very seductive body. Looking at both of them, his heart moved.
However, it was not because he was seduced or something… It was because Alex knew these two women. He closed his eyes and muttered, "Alicia, Firia."
The women that he had been longing for… his two wives. Alicia smiled as she came to him and held his other hand.
Their eyes intertwined, making Alex filled with emotions. Alicia and Firia started to pull him toward the bed before falling to the bed with him.
Making a sexy pose and putting his hand on their chest, they said, "Husband. We haven't done it for a long time. Please…"
Alex's hands started to move. Surprisingly, there was no trace of perverted thought in this movement as he slowly placed his hands on their cheeks before hugging both of them.
"I am sorry. If only I were not weak back then, Alicia would not need to suffer and Firia did not need to go along with this treacherous path." He said with a hoarse tone, revealing all of his emotions. "I will be fine. We will reunite and I will do whatever I can to make our peace last. So, please go back."
The illusion could not do anything other than disappearing, leaving Alex alone in the bed. He then rose up, wondering what to do. "So, what's next? Do I need to leave the door?"
He then stood up, reaching the door with his hand.
*Clack!*
Before he could pull the door open, he was hugged from behind. He heard as he felt the soft hands trembling. "Alex… How long do I need to wait?"
It was Anya's voice.
"Alex… Can you fulfill this single wish of mine… can you just do it one time with Anya." Anna suddenly appeared beside him with a sad expression.
Looking at her made him sad, but it was still not shaking his heart. He looked at Anna. "You are a good sister, but being supportive is not the same as begging me like that."
"I am sorry for making you wait very long." He then turned to Anya and hugged her, recalling all the memories about him and Anya. At a time, she was a seductress. On another time, she became an intelligent beauty, making one plan after another. Even so, her existence had left a mark in his heart. "Even though you are an illusion, I still need to thank you. I have decided not to run away anymore and confront her feelings from head-on."
Both of them then disappeared, making him think that he passed the test. However, another woman suddenly appeared. She had long black hair tied into a ponytail. Her face was slightly beautiful, with a graceful body.
"Alex, I am sorry… I am sorry for betraying you… Please, forgive me. I will do anything you want, so can we go back together again."
Seeing this only made him furious, not lust. After all, the woman in front of him was Sandra. Alex clenched his fist and complained. "Is the illusion even trying? This is certainly not a trial of lust, but wrath… Sherry!"
Instinctively he called Sherry's name, hoping she would come and beat the woman in front of him as usual. Of course, Alex realized that Sherry would not appear in this illusion.
Surprisingly, his expectation was betrayed again as a silver-haired young girl appeared out of nowhere and kicked Sandra on the face. The young girl had fox ears with a tip of pink fur on her ears. Even her hair and tails had the pink tip.
She appeared to be a 10 years old young girl, wearing a male T-shirt that was too big for her body.
"Master. The target has been neutralized." The fox girl reported before looking at Alex with her big cute eyes. "Master… I also want to be treated like Elder Sister Alicia and Firia. I want to be like Elder Sister Anna and Anya that come to your life."
Hearing this, there was no other thought other than disappointment. He patted Sherry's head and said as he pointed at the door behind him. "Grow first. I don't want the FBI to slam my door open at night."
(FBI: Why always me?)
"FBI? What is that?"
"Anyway, grow first and we can talk about that." Alex patted her head until she disappeared.
To his surprise, the next woman was Shelka. He did not know why, but he waved his hand, killing her in a single blow out of reflex. He sighed, thinking how ridiculous this test was. "Anyway, there should be no one left unless the trial wants to piss me off."
It turned out he was right. The next one was Stina, who Alex rejected the instant she appeared. She was Kyle's. Even with Kyle losing his memory, her faithfulness alone was enough for him to shatter her illusion.
"NTR? Sigh… Just end this trial already, there won't be anyone that will stop me."
The moment he muttered those words, a female's voice was heard. Sadness and disappointment filled her voice, telling him her feelings at the moment.
Lying down on the bed, she looked like she wanted to cry. "I see. It seems my effort until now is futile."
"!!!" Alex turned his head toward the brown-haired woman on the bed. He wanted to say something, but all the words stuck in her throat, filling his heart with dismay. "I…"
"I have been with you for the longest… but why… If only I met you with a body, I would be the only one in your heart..."
Alex clenched his fists as he said. "You are irreplaceable in my heart and no one could deny that. Regrets, Anxiety, and Loss may fill your heart, but I have promised you, haven't I? I will find you… definitely."
She finally disappeared and as word started appearing in the air, like the thing happened in Phoenix Trial. The writing was:
Wives (Check)
Ex (Check)
Loli (Check)
Milf (Check)
Hidden Feeling Girl for Plot Twist (Check)
This took his breath for a second, never expecting something like this to happen. He berated, "This trial just wants to make me angry… isn't it?"
Meanwhile, the system girl, who was watching this, made a very big smile. "Still… what the heck with the Hidden Feeling Girl. I have been clearly flirting with him from the beginning of his journey."
On the other hand, Alex was transported back to reality, looking at the floor that started shining in pink.
"!!!" Stina and Zarall were surprised that Alex had finished the first test. Zarall said, "Pink Color… So, he has finished the Lust Trial… Seeing how he is so fast, it seems he is not a person moved by lust. Even a heaven shaking beauty would not shake his firm heart."
Unbeknown to him, all the women that he met were Heavenly Beauties, except Sandra.
On the other hand, Stina took a deep breath, feeling a bit relieved. "One down… six left."
They were watching his progress from the outside, wondering how fast he would finish the trial and which trial took the longest. If they knew about it, they could try to give him some advice after he returned.
In the tower, Alex had stepped onto the second floor, preparing his heart to whatever trial he would get.
He was teleported again into a continent. Its balance was so vast, making it so easy to identify the poor and the rich. He was also rich and in fact, he was the richest person in this continent.
He had been living in luxury for so long and enjoyed that lifestyle while manifesting his money from the poor.
Realizing the trial, Alex immediately took action. He did not immediately share his money, thinking it would be a waste. Instead, he bought a basket of the apples and when he met the poor who was begging him for a little bit of money.
He gave them this basket of apples instead of money. He said before walking away, "You have strong arms and feet. How about selling this apple instead of waiting for people to give you money?"
The person was astonished, looking at the apple and wondering whether he should eat it or sell it like he said. After all, Alex had left the place.
After pondering for some time, he took the basket and tried to sell it. It was hard, it was tiring, but when he looked at the money on his hand, it felt the best. He wanted to eat a luxury with this money, but recalling how Alex gave him a basket of apples.
He only bought the cheapest meal for his dinner and bought another basket of apples. Bit by bit, he slowly accumulated money and his business started to expand. Making a stand, building a store, and so on.
However, even after his success, he would sometimes stroll around the street and give them a basket of apples like Alex did to him. He told people to make money, not begging for it.
Alex also kept doing it, spreading people like him. Although the time kept moving forward at a very fast speed, he could say that he had given his wealth so others could make money like him, until all of his wealth was gone and he was teleported back to the real world.
Closing his eyes, Alex sighed. "Sadly, it is only an illusion world."
The floor started shining in green, signaling him he completed the floor. Stina and Zarall did not know how he did it, but they knew Alex was successful.
The third floor was about Gluttony. This was an absurd test for him. In that world, he was still with his old family on Earth. However, the situation between him and his sister was reversed.
They would give Alex a sumptuous meal while giving his sister a normal meal. This was the worst test the trial could give him, as he already had a problem with his old family. He immediately gave his sister his food while eating her food himself, telling them that was wrong.
As for the taste, he was accustomed to bland food, so he never cared. Besides, cultivators did not need food.
