"I don't think a legendary expert would act so impulsively, would he?"
"Who knew, last time I saw a legendary figure wearing a black mask sneak away, mmm mmm mmm..."
Ignoring those whose mouths were physically sealed by some unknown force, everyone who came to witness this trial was waiting.
The blind man didn't express his own thoughts; he just stared at the swordsman's back with a strange look, as if he had sensed something.
In the corner, a figure wearing a hoodie smiled.
"...Hehe, you really gave me a fright. I didn't expect you to be such a reckless guy."
"He's just a reckless fool who's only interested in immediate gains."
"It's time."
After saying that, he nodded silently in one direction.
Then, something unexpected happened!
"Swordsman!!!"
The loud shouts drew everyone's attention, and an adjudicator sitting in the front row angrily stood up and walked from his seat into the arena.
What are you doing?
"Your reckless behavior will not eliminate [Lust], but will instead make her even stronger!"
Like a defender of the faith who is undaunted by the challenge to his beliefs, the tall judge, with obvious anger, asked in a furious voice:
"Do you realize that you've crossed the adjudicator's bottom line?!"
Public opinion shifted as everyone observed this dramatic scene, sensing something unusual.
Faced with a barrage of questioning and confused gazes, the swordsman remained unmoved, maintaining his previous sword-holding posture.
Finally, he slowly straightened his arm and pulled the longsword out of the ground little by little...
And change began at that moment.
"This is!?"
The burly man stood up from his seat, staring in shock at the scene unfolding before him.
"...How did you do that?"
How did he do that?!
...
...
Lust is waning.
She fell into darkness.
That was the hell she deserved.
However, this hell looks too empty.
Only darkness.
An endless, consuming darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, a seductive voice drifted from afar.
In the darkness, it seemed as if a woman was chuckling softly.
"hehe……"
She smiled:
"How thoughtful! They even prepared snacks for us!"
The falling soul finally stopped, and she landed on a warm patch of ground.
Looking up helplessly, Lust saw two scarlet suns.
The sun, gleaming with a dangerous light.
"Lost little one, are you willing to accept this ending?"
That wasn't the sun, and what was beneath it wasn't the ground.
Those were eyes, those were palms.
The disparity was so exaggerated that it was so enormous that it inspired resistance, leaving no room for any thought of rebellion.
What can extinguish the plague?
What can dissolve an immortal spirit?
The answer...
It is a desire even greater than that.
It is neither abrasion nor dissolution.
It is to devour.
Her lust, which she considered boundless, was utterly insignificant in the face of true desire.
It's like a drop of water flowing into the ocean, without causing the slightest ripple.
Lust makes me feel like my self is being destroyed...
At that moment, a seductive voice echoed in my heart:
Do you yearn to truly live?
The voice was seductive, trying to drag lust from one abyss into an even deeper hell.
No……
I don't want to...
Let me go, all I want right now is to die...
Resisting, resisting the voice with lust and fear.
"Give up? What a fragile soul~"
"How boring! Compared to him, of course."
Somewhat regrettably, the woman in the darkness laughed and gave up the temptation:
"Well, no one says that you have to fight to be right."
"Since you crave death, I will mercifully grant you eternal slumber."
"This is only because you and I share a slight common origin."
She felt a cool sensation on her forehead, and the next moment, she felt everything inside her body being rapidly drained.
Soul, consciousness, pain... and sin.
"We can't let him bear such a sin."
Lust felt her soul being gently drawn away and merged into the endless ocean.
To merge into that endless abyss.
Goodnight, little one.
Perhaps this is the gentleness that person spoke of.
"Now you can find peace."
Eternal tranquility.
...
laugh.
The head formed from the lustful soul rapidly shrank, and in a very short time, its former beauty was no longer visible, turning it into something resembling a dried-up corpse.
flutter.
There was no wind, only the slight tremor of the longsword, which caused Ganbei's head to weather and shatter, with no possibility of being reassembled.
The legendary longsword emanated a radiant power that melted away the head of lust.
No new miracles occurred.
The spiritual plague known as "Lust" has now come to a complete end.
As everyone fell silent, the blood-soaked knight sheathed his sword and calmly announced:
"The trial is over."
Turning his head, the swordsman looked at the judge who was frozen in mid-air, caught in a dilemma.
He spoke coldly:
What did you just say?
---Aside---
