Origin Lust Sword System

Chapter 82 Secret Spells

Cyrus didn't push Rita away and wrapped his arm around her shoulder with a gentle smile, "We were just talking about Hilda's situation."

"What kind of situation?" She asked curiously while giving a glance to Hilda, who was looking coldly at them.

Cyrus didn't reply instantly. Instead, he looked at Hilda first meaningfully. He wouldn't talk about her private matters in front of Rita if she were uncomfortable. It was the same case for Rita as well.

If he starts making their decision for them, they will lose their ability to make independent decisions, especially if he decides something they are not comfortable with.

Hilda got what Cyrus meant, and she nodded, "I don't mind."

After getting her confirmation, he didn't hide her mask from Rita, and he even told her about the treasure items. This information was quite helpful for Rita as well since she would come in contact with such items in the future.

Rita was shocked when she heard about Hilda's mask. They were just talking about it yesterday. But it turned out things were not as simple as they seemed.

In the end, she was solemn as she looked at Hilda and Cyrus, "You need to help her."

Hilda's cold eyes softened when she saw Rita seemed to care about her despite her antics.

Cyrus chuckled, "It goes without saying. I'll get rid of Hilda's problem in 9 days." He coolly stated.

"Why not now?" Rita was startled, and so does Hilda.

"I don't have my sword," Cyrus said ambiguously, which left both women speechless. Especially Hilda since she had yet to see Cyrus using any sword.

Rita frowned as she thought of something, "You can't summon it?" She was quite familiar with Cyrus's magical sword, which could appear and disappear at his behest.

So, she quickly understood the meaning behind his words.

Cyrus nodded, "Yes, something like that. That's why I need nine more days before I can get rid of Hilda's mask. Are you ok with it?" He asked Hilda.

Cyrus was telling the truth when he said he needed his lust sword because his Qi reserve was not enough to cast the Golden Grade Secret Spell, so he needed Eve's Qi reserve as well.

Only then can he remove the mask on her face, and that is only if the mask owner's spiritual mark was at the early stages of the ascension realm.

Still, it won't harm Hilda in any way, even if it fails. Cyrus could always become stronger and get rid of it once he was able to cast an ascension-grade secret spell.

"Alright." Hilda had no choice but to agree.

Cyrus could feel the discomfort in her voice, so he decided to explain, "I needed to cast a Secret Spell, and I can't do it without my sword, which is currently unavailable. But I can't tell you the reason why since this matter is taboo."

The system's existence was Cyrus's top secret, and he won't tell anyone about it even if he trusts someone with life. He didn't mind telling others that he was a former god, but the system was something he didn't understand himself.

This could create a huge problem for him if someone with the knowledge of what kind of cultivation technique the system was come looking for it. Since he knew there were millions of ways to find out about someone's secret from others, he was even more vigilant about it because of the unknown factor.

Hilda didn't ask any more questions as she could tell this matter might touch Cyrus's personal secrets. Since he was being honest with her, she didn't mind waiting in the least bit.

Rita, on the other hand, was more at ease, "What is Secret Spell? Is it a higher-grade spell than a golden grade?"

Cyrus replied, "Good observation. No, a Secret Spell is completely different from normal element spells we use, and Secret Spell is the term we use in cultivation civilizations. In magic civilizations, these spells are known as Forbidden Spells, while in soul civilizations, they are known as Taboo Spells.

"While an element spell was used with the natural elements present in nature. The Secret Spell uses elements that go against the natural elements like hex spells, enslavement spells, dark puppetry, dark oath contracts, and such are the branches of secret spells.

"You can say that the element spells are mostly orthodox while the Secret Spells are unorthodox, but they are still the two sides of one coin. Still, the laws governing our universe are fair.

"That's why the secret spells took a massive amount of Qi to activate, and once they were active, they would not stop even if the caster didn't have the full capacity to complete the spell.

"It will start sucking your life force and even give you a terrible backlash if you manage to pay with your life force, and in both cases, it will leave you in half death state, or most of the time, death is the only ending.

"That's why these spells are also given the name forbidden spell or taboo spells. That's why only after achieving extreme mastery over the element spell can one start learning the secret spells.

"Even mortal grade secret spells, which have the same ranks as element spells, are something only someone who had broken the mortal shackle can learn," Cyrus explained, which left both women dumbfounded.

They really didn't look like they were sitting in the middle of a forest while taking a bath.

"S-so, does this mean you are already above the mortal realm?" Hilda asked while taking a deep breath to calm her racing heart.

She had once read about a forbidden spell in the library of the dimensions, so she knew what Cyrus was talking about. But Cyrus's information was even deeper and more accurate.

Rita was also fascinated by this information and wanted to know exactly the answer to Hilda's question.

Cyrus couldn't help but chuckle while shaking his head, "I'm still a mortal. But I'm different from you guys. I have experience."

"Where did that come from?" Rita asked curiously.

"From an opportunity, I guess." Cyrus grinned ambiguously before his eyes shimmered in a peculiar glint, and he abruptly stood up, splashing water over both girls, "Alright, you guys enjoy your bath. I'm done."

Without waiting for them to reply, he stepped outside, and black tight clothes started to appear on his naked body while his soaked hair also started to dry.

"Where are you going?" Rita pouted as she felt indignation because she wanted to spend more time talking with him.

Even Hilda felt somewhat lost as she was enjoying their conversation, which she didn't imagine she would, especially when sitting almost naked in the bath with a man.

Cyrus, who was now clad in a black robe and his hair was dry and look like even more shining, while his complexion was rosy, making him look even more otherworldly, turned around and said smilingly, "I'm going to find us some breakfast before we leave."

Without waiting for their answer, he snapped his finger, and steam started to rise from the small pool again. The next moment a mirror-like barrier covered the entire pool, and now it was completely gone as if it was just a mirage before.

He also left the girls' set of clothes before leaving in the direction of the river stream with coldness creeping into his eyes.

Just a little bit over five hundred meters away from the campsite of Cyrus's little group, another group of eight people, wearing high-quality gear, were moving towards the campsite.

A handsome male of 5'11 height was in the lead as he said to his group, "We are finally a few miles away from reaching that great wall after walking all night!"

"Sigh… it better be worth the money we spent to get the information and all the energy by walking in this godforsaken place." A burly guy muttered in the complaint.

"Don't worry. Didn't you guys see all those blimps passing through the sky at night? The news about something big that has happened in forsaken lands might not be false at all. I just hope those guys will leave us some treasures." A dainty girl tried to cheer her companions.

Everyone's eyes lit up in greed when they heard about the treasures.

"We, the Dark Fire Alliance, will surely make a name for ourselves with this venture!" The male leading them expressed in high spirits as he was filled with ambitions and dreams.

However, unbeknownst to them, a few meters away at this moment, a figure suddenly landed within a tree crown without making a noise whatsoever while he stared at the group of eight icily.

'So, these idiots were the ones who triggered one of my hidden alarm spells.' He thought while dismissively looking at the group happily chatting with each other as they walked.

'Well, they didn't seem hostile. But if they walked too close to the camp, it might disturb the two girls, and I can't let that happen as their man. So, if they move in a wrong way, they can only blame themselves for disturbing my bath with my women!'
