Lust System in the Murim World

Chapter 21 Princess Quest Part 1

Three Hours Later,

"Alright Neyol, I need to leave for a few hours." Kim said as he walked out of the house. He didn't hesitate to run toward the forest.

Neyol did ask him where he was planning on going. So, he simply made an excuse that he would train in the forest.

And, he also made sure that Neyol didn't follow him. Although her strength would be a huge help, he didn't want Neyol to find out that he was going to save the princess.

Besides, with her presence, he wouldn't be able to flirt with the princess at all. It was a risky move but if it succeeded, the risk would be worth it.

........

"Haa! Haa! Haa!"

'Damn those bastards! How did they know that I have left the kingdom? Father would never allow anyone to know about my escape.

Even if he wanted to capture me, he would never send Dark Blood Faction.'

'This is the faction created to kill, but it isn't under father. So, why did they suddenly find out about my escape and come to capture me?'

A young lady wearing a purple dress was running in the forest. Her speed was fast but it wasn't fast enough.

Nearly five dark-clothes assassins were running behind her.

Their clothes were a bit weird. With a sign of the sun at the back, the cloth was extremely dark. All of them were wearing crow masks as well.

One of them raised his hand and swung. A sharp needle flew toward her, piercing the air. But, the young lady's ear was sharp.

She instantly heard the sharp sound and immediately jumped while swinging her body.

The needle passed from beneath her. She didn't stop but rather her speed only increased.

"Thirteen, there is no need to use a sneak attack. She had increased the Heavenly Asura Body.

Her physical capabilities including senses her very high."

"Even though she hadn't become a martial artist, she is comparable to lower rank martial artists. That's why we were sent.

There is no need to attack her now. After all, she isn't a martial artist. Consume her stamina and we will get a chance to kill her."

Seeing one of his teammates using the attack, the assassin who was running in the middle spoke. His voice was extremely cold.

The assassin who attacked just now nodded his head.

The princess kept running but her speed slowly decreased. Her stamina wasn't enough.

Because of her family tradition, she wasn't allowed to become a martial artist until she was eighteen.

Hence, she decided to run away from home. Before she was fifteen, being or not being a martial artist didn't matter much to her.

But after she reached the age of seventeen, her desire to become a martial artist became stronger.

So, she decided to leave the kingdom. Although she knew she was from a different race, it wouldn't be trouble for her.

After all, there might be a conflict between different races, but there was no war.

Thus, she was sure that after she left her kingdom, she could join a small town, practice basic martial techniques, and become a martial artist.

With her talent, it wouldn't be a problem for her to catch up to other people who have already trained.

But she didn't expect to be chased by someone else right after she left the kingdom.

And, they weren't there to take her back. They were coming after her to kill her.

She had been running for two days. Her stamina had started to reach its limit. Now, she was sure that she couldn't continue anymore.

'Am I going to die here? I don't want to die. I didn't become a martial artist. Dad, please, save me.'

The princess's strong Will was slowly broken. She knew no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't run anymore.

She even had the urge to stop. But, she didn't want to die.

She thought that she had just started her life. How could she die right now? No matter what, she didn't want to die right now.

'Don't stop, Hinata. This isn't the time to give up. I must live. I am the one who inherited the Heavenly Asura Body. I am the one who will reach the peak of the world and bring everything to my foot.'

'How can I die here? No! I don't accept my death. I reject it. Heavenly Asura Body, burst out!'

"GIVE ME YOUR DAMN STRENGTH, ASURA"

At this moment, her body suddenly released steam. Her blood started pumping faster than before.

If it was a normal body, she would've died by now.

But with Heavenly Asura Body, she was able to bear it. She didn't even feel the pain. All she could feel was enormous power flowing through her veins.

Even so, she didn't hesitate to run away. This was just a burst of strength. Her Heavenly Asura Body was one of the strongest constitutions.

But, it wasn't Heaven Defying. It had its limit. The current burst of strength was due to her strong Will. But, it won't last long.

So, when she got this strength, she didn't hesitate even for a moment to run at a speed nearly five times faster than her full speed. In an instant, she disappeared from the eyes of others.

"Damn it! She managed to motivate her Heavenly Asura Body. We can't lose sight of her. She can't use it unconditionally. We must catch up." The assassin in the middle shouted.

Without any hesitation, they increased their speed but it was a lot slower than her. After nearly ten seconds, they crossed several meters but didn't see any signs of her.

They continued to run.

Two Minutes Later,

"Stop! I am afraid we might be going in the wrong direction." The assassin in the middle paused everyone and spoke.

"What do you mean?" One of the assassins from the right side asked.

"It's simple. She had been running for two days straight. Even with her Heavenly Asura Body, she had already reached the limit. She isn't an idiot. She knew that burst of strength was only momentarily."

"She could've changed her direction when we didn't see her. If we run straight, we might lose sight of her. Twenty minutes! That should be her limits now."

"She shouldn't be able to run more than twenty minutes. So, four of us will run in four different directions. With her exhausted body, she won't be able to kill any of us."

"Still, as soon as you see the shadow of her, don't engage in battle instantly. Use the flare to notify us and then engage in battle. I will stay in the middle so I can reach in all four directions instantly."

"And, don't forget, we are still inside the forest. There would be many monsters." The main assassin explained.

Four of them nodded their heads and rushed in four different directions without any hesitation. The main assassin was their boss so his orders were absolute.

He stayed in the middle and waited for the signal. At the same time, he was thinking.

'How the hell Faction Master managed to hide our action? Even if we are the lowest level assassins, our movement would still be under the eyes of the Royal Minister.'

'If Royal Minister knew that we are hunting the princess, he should've sent a guard by now. But, the fact he didn't make any move makes it even more suspicious.'

'They are trying to kill her but why? Even if the Royal Minister wants to covet the throne, he should target the king, not the princess. Is it because of Heavenly Asura Body?'

'Heavenly Asura Body, one of the strongest constitutions in the world also known as Divine Constitution. There are only ten divine constitutions and even among them, Heavenly Asura Body ranks third.'

'The only constitution that has the power to the rival divine constitution would be Cursed Constitution but unfortunately, the people born with cursed constitution rarely manage to live longer.'

'If I remember correctly, the previous owner of Dark Nightmare Constitution killed herself when her husband died. She didn't follow the path of her predecessors.'

'Cursed Constitution Owner only has two choices. Follow the Will of their constitution or suffer from it. The previous owner of Dark Nightmare Constitution followed didn't follow its Will and couldn't bear the suffering so she killed herself.'

'Dark Nightmare Constitution allowed owners to completely pull anyone into their fantasy and torture there indefinitely. The space-time inside the fantasy that they create is under their control.'

'This is why it has Nightmare on its name. And, as long as the opponent didn't have high Spiritual Power, it would be impossible to come out of it. Such power is simply ridiculous.'

'No wonder Royal Minister would want to kill the princess. Just imagine having such power without any side effects or consequences. That's what Divine Constitution represents.'

'Absolute Talent and Power'

At this moment, a cold aura burst out of him.

'We must fulfill this task at any cost. The princess must die.'
