Eren shifted his attention from the various notifications to the new set of options displayed on the screen. This time, the screen had a soothing light blue hue, in contrast to the intense red of the Conqueror path options.
He expected these options to be milder since they were from the Path of Lover. However, only after reading them did he realize that he couldn't have been more wrong.
[Option One: Confess your love to Feng Yu in front of Xiu Ying.
Reward: Thread of Marriage Upgrade (Unknown Tier)]
[Option Two: Kiss Feng Yu in front of Xiu Ying.
Reward: Third Memory Fragment]
[Option Three: Tell Feng Yu the truth about your real identity as Ren Necroline.
Reward: Sword of Solitude (Legendary Tier)]
[Option Four: Convince Feng Yu to make you the Sect Master.
Reward: Level +5]
These are the options for the first milestone?'
Eren's expression turned solemn as he finished reading them. If Feng Yu hadn't been in his embrace, he would have already facepalmed himself.
From what angle were these options milder? In some ways, they were even worse than the options for the path of the Conqueror milestone.
The first option asked him to confess his love. Just the confession part itself was hard, let alone doing that in front of Xiu Ying. He had a feeling that if he did that, he might be killed but not at the hands of Feng Yu.
As for the second option, if it was just about kissing Feng Yu, it was easy to complete. But he had to kiss her in front of Xiu Ying as well?
'Were you some sort of exhibitionist before becoming the system? What's with doing everything in front of Xiu Ying? Are you trying to get me killed at her hands?'
After reading the first two options, he was surprised that the third option didn't outright tell him to sleep with Feng Yu in front of Xiu Ying.
In any case, even that option would have been better than the actual third option he had received.
He had to tell his real identity to Feng Yu. That meant he had to tell her that he was the person she wanted to kill?
If it was about telling her his real identity only, he could have told him about her identity from earth. Even though that was dangerous, it was better than the identity he possessed.
Unfortunately, the options clearly said that he had to tell his identity as Ren Necroline.
It was clear that the system had learned from the last time he took advantage of the loopholes. It was making things clearer, leaving no flaws for him to exploit.
Even if he had to walk straight to hell, he wasn't willing to select the third option.
Moreover, he didn't even understand how that option came in the path of love. Shouldn't it be in the path of hater as it would make her want to rip his skull apart and drink blood tum within.
There was only one similarity between the options of these two paths, and it was the sect master position.
The path of the Conqueror also had an option that asked him to become the sect master, and it was the same here. It was as if the Sect Master's position played a significant role in both these paths.
He had already selected that option from his secondary options. If he selected the same option again, he could complete two options with one task.
Still, that was easier said than done. If he took that option here as well, then failure meant closing both his paths.
Was putting all his eggs in one basket the right choice? He didn't think so. Even if that was the case, the reward itself made that option here unappealing.
The reward was only five levels of upgrade. It was a decent reward when it came to enhancing his strength, but in comparison to other rewards, it paled in comparison.
There were only two rewards that caught his attention as he already excluded the legendary tier reward because of the option it came with.
The first reward he was interested in was the upgrade to his thread of marriage with Feng Yu.
For now, he was sure that it only prevented her from hurting him. If she hurt him directly, she was going to be hurt as well. She was going to feel the same pain. There were no other options to it.
There was a huge loophole in that. It only stopped her from killing or seriously hurting him, but she could still have others kill him.
She could also capture him all alone and then have others kill him when he was tied. He was sure she had thousands of ways to kill him even with this restriction.
An even bigger problem was her mythical beast. She just had to command it and it could rip him to shreds.
Her mythical beast was much older and stronger than his phoenix to the point that there wasn't even a comparison for now.
He wondered what the effects were going to be after the upgrade. If it meant that she couldn't hurt him even indirectly either, then it could very well be the best reward ever.
The only other option that appealed to him was the third memory fragment.
Even in the path of Conqueror, he had selected the option with a memory fragment as a reward. The reward for that was the second memory fragment.
He had already lost the opportunity of getting the second memory fragment from the path of lover because of that option's difficulty and his desire to choose a question voucher.
With another memory fragment, he didn't want to give up, especially since there were no other special rewards like question voucher or pendant series rewards.
The problem was the attached option that came with the reward. Just thinking about it, he felt a headache.
