I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 705 2.5 [Lust Chapter] Oath

Urias was born in the Abyss, the offspring of a succubus and an abyssal dragon. He was also the first succubus in the abyss, possessing both the characteristics of a succubus and the power of an abyssal dragon. His parents died the moment he was born because he drained their power.

To the entire demon race, he should have been born the Demon King. However, because such hybrid power was too terrifying, and because demons were treacherous, ruthless, and devoid of ethics and morality, Urias was thrown into the Endless Sea by the demons after his birth, the legendary most silent and boundless prison for demons.

Newborn Urias knew nothing, and all the creatures he saw were there to kill him.

Urias was imprisoned in the Endless Sea for three thousand years, and the water beneath his feet was eventually dyed crimson, becoming a sea of ​​blood. There were no living creatures there except for him; the most numerous things were piles of white skeletons at his feet.

He grew up in solitude, survived through killing, and no one ever told him that what he did was wrong or that he shouldn't do it.

Urias was born a madman, a madman devoid of humanity, morality, ethics, and even self.

In Ji Qi's eyes, Urias and Rong Yi were very similar; both were as pure as blank sheets of paper, except...

Rong Yi's purity lies in his awareness; he knows what he wants, what he can and cannot do. Because he was taken in at birth and carefully cared for and raised by Ji Qi, he was very well-educated.

Urias's purity lies in his innocence; he was tainted from the very beginning and never knew what white was. Because he knew nothing and had no one to teach him anything, he learned everything on his own, entirely based on his own preferences. Pure and clean, yet so heartbreaking.

Urias is not like Rong Yi. When Rong Yi fell down as a child, he would cry and whine because he knew that someone would comfort and coax him. But Urias is different. He has nothing. When he falls down, he can only get up on his own. He doesn't even know what pain is because no one has taught him.

When Lycia found Urias, he already looked like a 16-year-old boy, having ended his three thousand years of solitude, while Rongyi was still a helpless infant.

Because he felt especially sorry for Urias, who had grown up struggling on his own, Ji Qi was extra tolerant of Rong Yi and raised her little by little, not wanting her to become a second Urias.

When Ji Qi learned that Urias was about to regain all his memories, he, who always went with the flow, volunteered to go on a business trip to accompany Urias to the fairy tale kingdom, because he couldn't help but want to help Rong Yi and hoped that he could have a smoother journey.

Rongyi and Urias are ultimately different. No matter how good he is to Rongyi, Urias is still Urias, still the child who grew up in loneliness and killing.

In truth, Ji Qi didn't initially dislike Adele that much; it was just that he couldn't help but take his anger out on her—not only for the First Generation's greed and violent death, but also because of Urias. The more Ji Qi cared for Urias, the more he hated Adele.

Why should such a good child be treated so badly?

Ji Qi hated Adele and even more Lanlos, but he couldn't do anything about it, nor did he have the right to. All he could do was watch it all unfold quietly and sulk in silence.

Just like when he encountered Lycia fleeing in a sorry state, all he could do was stand quietly behind her and protect her, so that she would have no worries.

Thinking of something, Mu Yegui suddenly asked, "Does Rong Yi know you came out like this?"

Ji Qi's body stiffened abruptly; it seemed he had indeed... forgotten to tell Rong Yi.

Before Ji Qi could say anything, two figures vaguely appeared in the collapsed ruins.

"As expected... stolen things can never compare to the original?" Adele slumped to the ground, her disheveled appearance unable to diminish her alluring charm, making one want to bully her even more.

"Why should I be raised as a sacrifice from childhood! Why should my existence be for you! Why... can't I be myself..." Adele clenched her fists tightly, her heart filled with resentment and hatred. She didn't tell anyone that when she learned that the heart belonged to Urias, she was actually happy. It seemed that only in this way could she ignore the so-called truth.

He is Adele, simply Adele, not some object existing for anyone else; he is an independent individual…

Why did Urias reappear?
Why did Lanlos tell him the truth?

Why did he regain all his memories?
How wonderful it would be to forget everything, to remember nothing at all...

Her purplish-purple eyes were brimming with tears, her gaze filled with pain and despair.

Suddenly, he laughed, a laugh so wild and sorrowful.

"Hahahaha! Don't think I'll give up so easily! It's true I'm a coward and afraid of pain, but I will absolutely not let you have your way... Urias! Lanlos asked me to give you a message: he said... even if you win this round, you'll never become a complete succubus!!"

Adele laughed maniacally as she grabbed the crystal flower stem and plunged it into her heart.

The 'Innocent' absorbed the blood, letting it stain it, and slowly blossomed.

The black, translucent petals swayed gently in the breeze, shimmering with a strange and beautiful light.

With a 'crack,' the emerald square ring in Ji Qi's hand shattered and vanished.

With Adele's death, Urias' heart returned to its master's chest to grow again.

Urias collapsed to the ground, clutching his aching chest. His long, dark hair turned snow-white inch by inch from the roots, and his red clothes were strikingly beautiful yet glaringly conspicuous.

A black scorpion gradually emerged from the pale skin, crawling out from the heart, step by step up the neck, and then gradually disappearing.

"The line between the incredible and fairy tales was already blurry, and now it's likely to become even more so. Gods reside in the incredible, demons in fairy tales... it's impossible to tell which side is which," Dionysus murmured, then turned and left. There was no need to watch any longer. Adele was dead; from this moment on, Urias was the new embodiment of lust.

The Unbelievable Kingdom and the Fairy Tale Kingdom are finally going to war.

Mu Yegui pursed her lips and coldly watched this scene. She paused for a moment when she saw a bright red red spider lily suddenly bloom at Urias's feet, and then walked towards him without hesitation.

Urias must not be allowed to open the abyss, otherwise the entire fairy tale kingdom will be turned into a hell.

"Urias." The soft, cool voice carried little emotion, yet it calmed Urias down.

He stared blankly as he looked up and watched the beautiful girl, as pretty as a doll, slowly walk towards him. The dark clouds in the gloomy sky dispersed, scattering golden rays of light.

A small, cold hand rested on his head and gently stroked it.

Mu Yegui crouched down to meet his gaze in those fierce, blood-red eyes. She leaned forward slightly, pressing her forehead against his, and whispered, "That's enough, Urias."

"Will Master hate me like this?" Urias didn't move, just let Mu Yegui touch him, and asked in a low, hoarse voice.

"Ugly, bloodthirsty, unable to control himself..." Before she could finish speaking, her slender, fair fingers pressed against his thin lips.

"Don't compare yourself to anyone. Urias is just Urias, and no one can replace him. So just be yourself. Whether you're a child or grown up now, whatever kind of Urias you are, I love you. Whether you're cowardly or bloodthirsty, the only one I've ever recognized is you."

Urias slowly closed his eyes, a single, glistening tear falling from the corner of his eye.

After waiting for so long, he finally got his wish.

His snow-white hair returned to its original black color. He opened his eyes, and his blood-red eyes were no longer fierce and bloodthirsty, but instead carried a hint of relief.

“My master gave me three gold coins before. May I return the favor?” Urias asked.

Mu Yegui paused for a moment, then nodded under Urias's gaze.

Urias helped Mu Yegui to his feet, then took a step back to create distance between them, and slowly knelt on the ground.

"Perhaps to my master, it was initially just an accident or a troublesome contract that I had to sign. I was all alone and had nothing. I had no power of arrogance, no ability of jealousy, no power of rage, no cleverness of laziness, no wealth of greed, no cleanliness of gluttony. I was so ugly and lowly, yet I still craved my master's mercy."

"My self-control was erased during those long, dark years. They left me with a curse that I could not escape throughout my life, even in death. I am incapable of humanity, even of a self. I do not know where I should go, where I should stay, what I should hurt, or what I should protect."

"I was born from hell, locked in darkness for three thousand years, the shallow sea beneath my feet turning from colorless to crimson, before finally breaking free of my shackles. I fear the darkness, yet I can only survive in it; I loathe killing, yet I cannot stop."

"They all say that light is poison to creatures of darkness, that they will die upon contact. But if light can pull me out of the darkness, I would gladly accept it."

His scarlet eyes seemed to flow with blood, cold and fierce, rejecting and loathing everyone, yet only one person remained in his gaze.

He reached out and gently stroked his chest, feeling the rhythm of his newborn heart.

However, the next second he did not hesitate to pierce his chest and forcibly rip out the still-beating heart.

The beating heart in his hand transformed into a black anklet, which Urias bent down and fastened.

“The Seven Deadly Sins, Lust, Urias: Here I offer my loyalty to Muyegui. My heart, flesh, skin, desires, life, and everything else... belong to you. If I have two masters, I will kill myself without hesitation. I swear by my heart.”

Of the seven sins, only two were madmen, Che and Urias, whom Muyegui took in completely.

Although the spider lily is an overused flower, it is truly suitable for Urias.

This concludes the Lust chapter. Next up are the Flower Crown sequel and the Mu Yin chapter.

Don't worry, I won't be sending any more razor blades anytime soon. I mean it, you can trust me.

Urias's black and white hair represent the difference between his normal mode and his ruthless battle mode.

The Abyss Hell can be called either the Abyss or Hell; call it whatever you like. The fact that I've mentioned the three main sub-maps means they'll definitely appear later in the game; otherwise, I wouldn't have wasted my time.

One more point to add: the ranking of the Seven Deadly Sins is based on the depth of their sins, not their combat strength. In terms of combat power, excluding the unknown Sher, if Zhu Yan, Rong Yi, and Urias were to actually fight, Urias would currently be number one, while Rong Yi and Zhu Yan would be evenly matched.

After all, Urias didn't stay quietly during his three thousand years of imprisonment; he fought his way through (since he would be killed if he didn't kill himself). Zhu Yan and Rong Yi were far less experienced in combat than Urias.

That's why they call Urias the Great Commander; he's truly a mad dog, only behaving in front of Mu Yegui. He himself said that all his self-control and patience had been worn away during those three thousand years, meaning he has none of those qualities left. Now, he only has instinct, making him a mad dog that bites anyone and doesn't recognize its own family.
