Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Alex stared at the black and golden-colored sphere in his palm before he gripped it hard.

*Grip*

His expression turned serious as if he was about to face a very strong opponent—someone who could possibly cause him harm.

*Inhale**Exhale*

He took a deep breath, closing his eyes along with it, and by the time he opened it, they were shining with intense determination.

'I choose you!'

He exclaimed inwardly as he threw the Pokeball up in the air.

The next second, a bright light flashed, and...

*Thud*

The body of an unconscious woman fell to the ground with a thud.

'Phew…'

Alex smiled inwardly as he saw this.

'I always wanted to do that.'

He let out the air he had been holding in with a sigh.

"What was that for?"

Luna, who had been looking at all of his doings with a curious expression, questioned with a brow raised.

"Nothing for you to worry about, I was just trying something."

Alex, however, just waved it off.

Luna, stared into his eyes for a while before she shrugged as well.

She could sense satisfaction from Alex, so she was just interested to know what it could be, but since Alex didn't want to say anything about it, she ignored it as well.

Her focus was now on the woman lying on the ground, her eyes squinting as she scanned her body.

"Didn't she die?"

She frowned as she could vividly remember seeing that woman turn into dust after Alex's destruction energy touched her.

"Yes, she did die, and I was the one who killed her."

Alex replied to her with a smile as he gazed at the woman lying on the ground, her black-colored hair scattered on the floor, her eyes closed shut, and her breaths in rhythm, indicating that she was sound asleep.

"And?"

Luna then turned toward Alex with a questioning gaze; she knew that he wasn't done yet, and there was still something he was going to add.

"Well, she was resurrected from her ashes."

His words were casual, standing in a relaxed poise, still staring at the woman, who was Rosaline, Lokiath's first heroine, before he raised his palm up, causing her body to rise up in the air.

"WHAT?!"

Luna, however, was far from calm.

She wasn't oblivious to the meaning of the word resurrection.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

But was there an ability to bring one back to life???

"Does that mean she won't be killed? Will she just get revived every time someone kills her?"

Luna, with a vigilant light shining in her eyes, questioned hurriedly.

But as she saw Alex's next actions, her eyes widened, even if just a bit.

Alex, who had Rosaline now raised up in front of his chest, extended his hand, moving toward her breasts, and the next second...

*Pierce*

With his hand covered with demonic energy, he pushed his palm inside her chest as if it were butter.

"Khaukh—!"

Rosaline, who was sleeping peacefully after being revied, had her caramel eyes widen in pain, but the next second, she was dead again.

Luna, although shocked by this development, stayed silent and observed what Alex was doing.

*Squelch*

With a sickening sound of blood and flesh being mangled, Alex pulled his palm out of her chest, and in his palm, there was a heart that still seemed to be beating.

"How?"

Luna, who saw it, couldn't help but question out loud.

How was it even possible?

How can a heart keep beating even after it is taken out of the body?

"Well, to answer your questions..."

Alex turned to look at Luna with a smile before he clenched the fist that had been holding the heart.

*Squish*

With a wet, muffled squelch, the heart turned into nothing but a blood paste, falling out of his palms.

Alex wasn't in the least affected by all that, and even Luna was just a bit surprised; for her, anything Alex did was right.

If it were Alice who were to see this, then maybe, just maybe she would be a bit averse to the scene.

Alex, who saw Luna still staring at his bloody palm without blinking, smiled inwardly.

Then he opened his palm, revealing a bright red crystal that seemed to have gone dim.

"You see this little thing?"

Alex grinned at Luna, causing her to raise a brow in curiosity, but still replied.

"Yes."

"This little thing here is what brought her back to life."

Alex added as he tossed the crystal toward Luna, who had her eyes go wide.

"W-What! Why did you throw it?!"

She exclaimed before she caught the crystal in a frenzy.

"Sigh…"

She only sighed in relief when she was sure that nothing had happened to it; her eyes then turned toward Alex with a grudgy look.

*Chuckle*

Alex, on the other hand, just chuckled, causing Luna to frown in annoyance.

*Huff*

She huffed with a glare before she began.

"Why are you throwing it here and there? What if it breaks?"

But Alex just shrugged at her words and added between his chuckles.

"That thing has already used up all of its power; now it would take at least 100 years for it to get fully charged again."

Alex paused for a bit, and before Luna could cut in, he added.

"And it can only be charged by the owner, who, unfortunately, died during my experiment."

Alex's tone sounded regretful, as if he didn't intend to kill Rosaline when he had clearly impaled her with his palm.

Luna, hearing his words, now had a dead look in her eyes.

Alex's chuckle just grew as he saw her dead stare, but not for long as he finally raised his arms in surrender.

"All right, all right, it wasn't an accident; I killed her, but I had my reasons.

She was someone who couldn't be left alive."

Alex started off with a casual stare, but by the time he reached the end, his eyes turned serious, causing Luna's eyes to sharpen as well.

She could tell that Alex wasn't playing with his words and he was really serious.

"Why?"

She questioned cautiously, expecting Alex to just turn mysterious again, but he didn't do that; instead, he replied to her with the same solemn look.

"She was related to someone from the imperial family of the Phoenixia Empire, making the empire a potential ally of her lover, whom I'm going to kill."

Alex's words caused Luna's body to tense.

'Related to the imperial family of the Phoenix empire?'

She knew how big of a matter that was.

She was a link to the Phoenix empire for Lokiath, who was already on Alex's kill list.

Why?

She knew the answer to that question very well, and although she was happy about Alex being possessive of her, she knew how much trouble this matter could cause if it came to light.

But Alex wasn't done with his words, as he added.

"And the Phoenix Empire is an empire I don't want to get into a conflict with; not until I get Alice out of there, at least."

His words momentarily froze Luna.

"Ah...'

But then she finally realized why Alex was cautious enough to kill Rosaline before anyone else.

'Alice...'

Spending her time alone with Alex almost made her forget that there were two girls out there whom Alex loved dearly and would go to any lengths for.

But then she smiled.

'I won't lose!'

She was going to get a place similar to them in Alex's heart, no matter what.

But she didn't show it on the outside; she just wore a serious expression and asked another question.

"Won't her family members already know about her death?"

Luna inquired with a wary look on her face, but Alex shook his head.

"That's the point; no one other than her knew about it, and even she was unaware of it, that is, until she died by my hands."

Alex replied as she looked at the corpse of Rosaline.

"Oh, so that's why you killed her..."

Luna muttered in realization, and getting a nod in reply from Alex, she started pondering about something, but right then, her gaze was pulled toward the crystal in her hands.

"And what is this?"

She questioned curiously, causing Alex to smile before another series of questions and answers started between Alex and Luna.

Lokaiath, the protagonist, on the other hand, was sitting in his carriage with a dead look.

There was no one with him as he sat alone, his mind blank, because the moment he tried to think of something, the scene of the humiliation he had gone through played in his mind, making him feel like shit.

But that was only until he heard a voice inside of his head.

[The lust binding system is now active.]

The moment he saw that illusionary blue screen flash in his vision, his body trembled, his fists clenched, and a raging fury burned in his eyes.

"ARGHHHHHHHHH! YOU BASTARD!!"

*Boom*

He roared out loud, smashing his fist on the carriage's door, only to have his knuckles bleed.

'YOU MFING SYSTEM!! I WILL KILL YOU!!'

He yelled inwardly while he grounded his teeth, his eyes bloodshot, as if he was ready to kill someone right now.

[Due to the host's emotions being out of control, the system will let you sleep.]

The system said nothing other than this, but Lokiath just clenched his fists in anger.

'I don't feel sleep—!'

His protest, however, was cut short as his eyes went blank and he fell back on the soft seat of the carriage, now asleep.

[Sigh… Why do I get these types of losers...]

Another message flashed in front of Lokiath, who wasn't even conscious before everything went quiet.

The driver of the carriage, who felt everything, just shook his head with a sigh...

'I wish he recovers soon...'

That's all he wished for.
