The Sin of Pride in Another world

Eros looked at Seath and Saydon as they tried to resist the heat. Both of them seemed stubborn and didn't want to back down.

Sophia: "If they continue like this, they will have some really bad injuries. Look, even the lower armor of Saydon is already melting".

Eros: "That's why Cruel Sun is a dangerous attack, its because of the amounts of heat that it emits. If they continue anymore, they will have their skin burned".

Serena: "They also didn't use any time of magic shields. They think that they can resist with only their body".

Sophia: "Unlike the other races, Magical beasts like Saydon, Aquila, and Seath use mana to battle. They have great physical strength compared to the others and also they have a natural control of mana".

Serena nodded and continued talking.

Serena: "Their beast core gives them the power to store mana inside them, unlike Mages. They also have a colorless soul power which makes them the perfect fusion between a mage and warrior. The only thing they lack is intelligence".

Sophia: "Most of the magic beasts are lacking very much in intelligence. Only, if they can pass to the 7th-grade, they could gain a human-like intelligence".

Eros thought about it a little and then said to both of the women beside him.

Eros: "Isn't Saydon the 5th-grade beast and wasn't Seath the 6th-grade beast when we found him. How could they gain intelligence before the 7th-grade?".

Sophia then smiled and looked at him and answered.

Sophia: "Well, if a magic beast has an ancestor who is above the 7th-grade, he will be born an intelligent beast".

Eros: "Hmm, I didn't expect them to have that kind of bloodline. Serena can they purify their bloodline to get more powerful?!".

Serena: "Well, of course. For a magic beast, they can evolve either by eating another beast core or purifying their bloodline using some kind of artifact or absorbing a purer bloodline".

Eros nodded as he understood how magic beasts can evolve. Eros also understood that his power and magic ability resembled that of a magic beast. He has a core like magic beasts. He also uses mana to fight with physical power just like a magic beast.

The only difference is the evolution thing. Eros doesn't need to evolve because his power can raise with the day hour by hour. Eros also needed mana to use his power in the night.

Serena and Sophia looked at both Seath and Saydon. They waited for Eros to stop them but an hour already passed and he didn't do anything. He just looked at them.

Sophia: "Aren't you going to save them. They stayed there for 4 hours and a half. If they continue without any rest, they will die".

Eros: "No, they will have to take some kind of punishment. I proposed this challenge and gave them the rest time knowing to full that anybody of them can't pass. With all of that, they still challenged the rules".


While Eros was talking, Saya and Lisa Rest time is finished and they entered the arena again.

Lisa used her sword to channel lightning Ki and was able to keep up for almost an hour. Her lightning Li was able to repel the heat but unfortunately for her, because of her level, she wasn't able to use ki too much and she fell down.

Because of the difficulty of the training, Lisa got tired and slept immediately. Eros who looked at her smiled and then said to her.

Eros: "You have done well. You can sleep and rest now".

???: "Of course she has done well. She is the one I chose as my master. Human, how dare you bully my master like that, huh, answer me??!!!!!".

When Eros hears the deep voice, he turns and searches for the source of the voice. Finally, he sees a cute little creature who is staying in the spectator's seats.

When Eros looked at him, he couldn't say anything. The creature has a white body like the snow and above it is a yellow golden fur.

Eros didn't expect to see such creature in front of him. The creature has purple eyes and you could see some sparks inside.

Sophia and Serena turned and looked at the little cute creature that is yawning and looking at Eros. They didn't expect that in their whole lives, they will see such a cute little animal.

Eros: "Who are you??".

???: " Who am I??!!! Hmph, it seems this world forgot about me after all those years. I am the great dragon, the magnificent, the invincible....."

Sophia: "Look at him. So Cute!!!!!!!!".

Before the dragon could say his words, Sophia jumped from her seat and started running towards him. She reached for his tail and caught him.

Sophia then started hugging him and didn't let him go.

Sophia: "So cute. Are you really a legendary dragon. You're too cute to be a dragon".

???: " Let me go, you woman. You are in the presence of the invincible Dragon Zilong. Stop touching me or I will kill you".

Sophia: "Ahhhhh, So cute. Yes, you can kill me. If I can be killed by you then yes, I will gladly die".

Serena didn't say anything and just looked at the little proclaimed dragon. She just raised her thumb up. Nobody knew what she was thinking.

Serena: (So cute. I also want to hug him).

Eros looked at both of the girls and sighed. He didn't expect both the girls to have this side of them. He then looked left Lisa and went to the spectator's seat. He put Lisa and let her sleep.

Eros: " So you're a dragon. What brings a little dragon like you here. I mean you're more like an opossum, not a dragon".

The dragon whose name is Zilong and is hugged to Sophia struggles and couldn't even answer Eros. Finally, Zilong was able to escape from her and escaped as he started floating.

Zilong: "You woman, you almost killed me. Do you know that you were completely disrespectful to the great dragon spirit!!! If I just had my true form, you would've been trembling and crying now".

Sophia: "Oh so cute. Serena, look at how he tries to be majestic and haughty".

[AN: https://pin.it/pdbdioh2acoc2g].

Serena didn't say anything and just nodded as she looked at how cute he is. Zilong didn't say anything and just looked at Eros. He chose to ignore the two women completely. He then said to Eros.

Zilong: "And you!!! You human, how dare you say such a thing!!! me, I don't look like a dragon??!!!! hmph, I am the noblest of all the dragons. I am the great lightning dragon spirit. I reside in the Dragonslayer sword and even decide who is my master".

Eros: " So you live in this sword, hmm??".

As Eros said, he held the sword in his hand and then looked at the little dragon. Eros then said to him.

Eros: "If you're a dragon spirit that lives in the sword, why didn't destroy your soul or anything, I mean isn't this the dragonslayer sword??".

Zilong: " Hmph, ignorant fool. This sword is made by the bones and flesh of a dragon, That dragon is me. I was at that time at the brink of death and then some kind of a super warrior entered the cave and killed me while I was sleeping. Fortunately, I was able to store my soul inside this sword. I then was given to some kind of an Emperor and when he died, that empire fell down and he stored me inside the vault. I was sleeping all that time and when the girl touched me, I felt the power of lightning and chose her as my new master".

Sophia: "The emperor must be His Highness, Emperor Charles. We found you at his vault and then you were given to Lisa".

Suddenly, they heard Eros laugh as he pointed at the dragon and said to him.

Eros: "You have been killed while you were sleeping. Hahahahaha, Who thought that dragonslayer sword origin is a keeping old dragon who resembles an opossum. Hahaha".

Zilong: "Grrrrr, I am going to kill you Arrgghhh".

Zilong started speeding up and went toward Eros as he tried to attack him. Little claws started appearing on his paws and he went straight to Eros face.

Eros: " Hoooo, little dragon, don't overestimate yourself".

The dragon was about to hit Eros but Before he reached him, Serena who was all the time quite cast a sudden spell:

Serena: "Come forth, Wind".

Suddenly, the wind started forming around Zilong body and a windshield is around him. The windshield then started moving towards Serena who looked very calm.

Zilong tried to break the spell but nothing happened. In the end, he gave up and just sat inside. Finally, The Windshield reached Serena and then with a wave of her hand, the shield disappeared and Zilong fell into Serena's hands.

The dragon didn't understand anything, he tried to escape but he couldn't. Serena didn't want to let him go.

Serena: (He's very cute. I won't let him go).

Eros: (So she also likes Cute things like any normal girl).

Sophia: "Serena, let me hold him. I also want to hug him".

The two women completely forgot about the training and just fought about who will hold Zilong.

Zilong: " Let me go. Hey, I said let me go. I want to see my master".

Both Serena and Sophia didn't care at all at his protest. Zilong then knew that he couldn't escape so he thought about something and then started disappearing.

Suddenly, he became a purple light and went and entered the sword. Eros and the others are shocked about what happened. They just couldn't understand what he did.

After that half an hour of Lisa getting out, Saya decided to get out. She couldn't resist anymore and decided to give up. Her Ki is also completely finished and her body couldn't gather more.

She went out of the arena and also started sleeping. The only remaining ones are Saydon and Seath.

Lisa stayed in the arena for 4 hours and a half while Saya stayed for 4 hours and a half. Eros is very satisfied. After all, this is the first time that they stayed in this much heat.

Even in the desert, you couldn't find this one of temperature. Eros looked at Saydon who is about to fall at any moment. Since the beginning of the training, Saydon refused to use any kind of mana or magic to defend himself.

He only used his own body to resist but for him, This could cost him heavy injuries. He already has some burn marks and even some of his armor is boiling.

Eros looked at Seath at the front. Seath is in a more dangerous situation. A part of his skin is already starting to get on fire. He doesn't even have upper clothes anymore.

Because of the chains that were attached to his pants, the area around him is full of metal liquid.

Suddenly, Eros so something bad. Seath tried to walk to the center!!!!! Eros then saw the craziness in Seath eyes.

Seath: "Hahahahaha, you see this Eros. I will now match towards your little flame and I will even destroy it and prove my powers to you".

Sophia: " Seath stop!!!! If you continue like this, you will get burned".

Serena: "At this rate, his injuries will be able to heal and something bad will happen to him".

Serena and Sophia turned to talk at Eros but they didn't find him. They turned back and found him walking through the arena.

He first reached the 200 m line and looked at Saydon, he didn't talk or anything. Saydon looked at Eros and said to him.

Saydon: " What are you going to do....."

Before Saydon could say anything, Eros hit him on the neck and knocked him out of the arena. He threw him to the spectator's seatings.

He then walked to Seath with steady steps and completely calm. Seath who saw this understood what Eros is going to do and he started walking away towards the Sun.

Seath: "Are you going to throw me out. You knew I will resist and that's why you're going to cheat, huh??!!!! Answer me, Eros".

Eros reached Seath immediately because he was very injured and couldn't move much. He then looked at him and said with one word.

Eros: "Idiot".

Eros then left him and threw him directly out. Seath immediately lost consciousness and didn't move at all.

Eros went to the sun and then activated sunshine through his core. Because it was after the sunset, he needed to make it disappear with the help of the core.

Eros: " So Sophia, how much did they stay??!!!".

Sophia: "Well, they both stayed 6 hours and a half so I think that this is good".

Serena: "No, they injured themselves very bad so they could stay this much. The purpose of the training wasn't survival but resisting the heat without getting injured".

Eros: " Perfectly, What Serena said is right. I wanted to see how they could think during the hard situation and how they will deal with it but only Saya and Lisa passed. Both of them knew when to stop and when to concentrate their Ki on and that's the true purpose. To know how to control the amount of ki they have. Of course, of Saydon and Seath used Ki, perhaps, they would have a chance of winning".

Sophia: "But because of the injuries, they couldn't use their mana well anymore. They really need hard training".

Eros: " I will deal with that. Sophia, I want you to try and search for ki techniques for both Saya and Lisa. The sooner, the better".

Zilong: "Don't try and search a ki technique for my master. Those shabby won't be as strong as my Dragon ki channeling technique".

All three of them turned and saw Zilong, the little dragon floating beside them and showing a smirk on his face.

Eros: " What do you mean??".

Sophia: "So cute, let me hug you".

Serena and Eros both looked at Sophia as she showed her wings and flew towards Zilong.

Eros: " Sigh, this will be very hard".
