It felt so good to be close to the witch!

He couldn't rely on the path of the knight in the short term, so he could only focus his attention on the lord's mansion to see if he could find anything related to "magical items" to increase the energy reserve progress of the mysterious cube.

To his disappointment, from the time he barely regained his mobility yesterday noon until dusk today, he had searched almost the entire lord's manor, but nothing he did could cause any change in the gray character panel.

This greatly disappointed him.

Fortunately, the mysterious white-haired, silver-eyed witch hasn't come looking for him in the last two days, which greatly relieved Roy.

At midnight tonight, the mysterious Rubik's Cube will complete the final 1%, reaching 100%!

At that time, his "golden touch" will reveal its true nature.

Roy was looking forward to it, but he didn't dare to let his guard down.

The closer we get to the critical juncture, the less we can afford to relax.

In order to get through the time from 0 p.m. to midnight, Roy specifically instructed Red to strengthen the defenses of the lord's manor. Although ordinary knights have no chance of winning against a witch, a thirty-man knight order led by a bronze two-star knight should be able to buy some time, right?

Roy has done everything he could and should have done.

In this way, time passed little by little.

……

In the dead of night, the crimson moonlight flowed like water through the courtyard and seeped into the room through the cracks in the window, spreading its radiance.

The moon in this world is different from that on Blue Star; it is entirely crimson, like the eyes of a god gazing upon humanity.

Roy sat on the bed, his face full of tension.

There are only three minutes left until midnight.

At this moment, in the corner of the doorway where he was standing, stood Red, a Bronze Level Two Knight, and around the house were thirty formal knights who were on high alert.

"call……"

A gentle breeze blew, and high in the sky, a dark cloud obscured the crimson moon, causing the light on the earth to dim abruptly.

Amidst the shifting light and shadow, a figure appeared on the wall of the lord's manor.

The black hood and long robe almost blended into the night.

She seemed to possess some unique perception ability, heading straight for Roy's house. In just two minutes, she appeared in front of Roy's house. Behind her were several knights on high alert, but none of them noticed her approach.

Soon, the figure was less than three meters away from the wooden door of the house.

"Chong-"

The metallic hum of a longsword being drawn rang out, accompanied by a flash of sharpness in mid-air. The figure in black robes raised her hand, her slender, pale index finger blocking the incoming longsword that emitted a faint white glow, and let out a soft exclamation:

"Bronze Knight? Two-star?"

"Boom-"

A chilling aura of deep blue spread out from the figure in black robes. Red, wielding a longsword, was propelled backward by the shockwave. While in mid-air, a thin layer of frost appeared on his body, making his entire body stiff and cold.

Consciousness became sluggish, and the body was unable to move.

The commotion caused by Red's actions caught the attention of the patrolling knights outside. However, before they could get close, their bodies were covered in frost under the influence of the azure chill, and their eyes gradually became dull.

"Hu Chi... Hu Chi..."

The black-robed figure's breathing became rapid, as if she was suppressing something, and a terrifying chill gathered and swirled around her.

A few dozen seconds later, the chill around the black-robed figure gradually dissipated, and his breathing became calm.

She didn't look at the knights around her who had turned into ice sculptures, but walked to the wooden door and pushed it hard.

"boom!"

The wooden door slammed heavily against the wall with a loud bang.

The crimson moonlight seized the opportunity to rush into the room, driving away the darkness.

Inside the room, a boy dressed in gray clothes sat cross-legged on the bed, raising his head to meet the pair of pale silver pupils beneath the black robe, with fine black lines moving extremely fast within them.

"You are indeed here."

With a calm face and serene eyes, the boy sitting cross-legged on the bed gave off a strange feeling, which made the white-haired, silver-eyed girl pause for a few seconds.

How to describe it?

Confidence? Strength?

She doesn't know.

However, even though the boy in front of her felt completely different from the one three nights ago, he was still just an ordinary person who wasn't even a knight.

Even without using her abilities, she is as fragile as an ant to her.

The white-haired, silver-eyed witch didn't speak, but raised her hand and reached out to grab the boy.

Regardless of how Roy caused the fox-eared witch to be critically injured and on the verge of death, it's always better to capture her first.

Then, by pressing them for answers gradually, you will gain valuable insights.

But just as the white-haired, silver-eyed witch's hand touched Roy's neck, a strange change occurred.

An indescribable suction force emanated from Roy, and in an instant, the white-haired, silver-eyed witch felt her magic power being drawn out and flowing into his body.

……

The moment the commotion outside the door was heard, Roy realized that the witch was coming.

But with only one minute left until midnight, there was nothing he could do, even though he was extremely anxious. He could only pray that Red and the others could hold on a little longer.

However, to his surprise, Reid and the others couldn't even last three seconds, let alone a minute. Although they couldn't see what was happening outside, as the azure frost spread from outside to the floor inside, an eerie silence fell outside, with only the sound of panting remaining.

This made Roy's heart jump into his throat.

A few dozen seconds later, the panting subsided, the wooden door was suddenly pushed open, and a figure in a black robe walked in. The white hair that peeked out from the black hood allowed Roy to immediately recognize the person's identity.

It was the white-haired, silver-eyed witch who had injected something into his body the night before!

At this moment, there are only a few seconds left until midnight.

In an attempt to buy time, Roy forced himself to remain calm and uttered the words, "You really came," trying to stall for time.

If a magical item is absorbed and the other party is unaware of the reason, they will inevitably suspect who is behind it.

Doubt leads to hesitation, hesitation leads to pauses, and thus the possibility of delays.

Because of the white-haired, silver-eyed witch's hesitation, Roy managed to survive those final three seconds.

As the last 1% of energy was replenished, the mysterious Rubik's Cube, visible only to Roy, emitted a dazzling rainbow of light. At the same time, a message surfaced in his mind and was instantly understood by him.

The mysterious Rubik's Cube is called the "Original Sin Cube".

It has the following capabilities.

[1. The Sin Cube can automatically absorb the Sin energy dissipating from its world, increasing its energy reserves by 1% daily.]

2. The Sin Cube can absorb items containing the power of original sin and convert them into its own energy reserves.

[3. Each time the energy reserve reaches 100%, one facet will be illuminated, and a talent will be gained based on the type of original sin power contained in the absorbed energy.]

4. The Original Sin Cube has storage space, which can be opened and closed at any time. The size of the storage space increases as more faces of the Original Sin Cube are lit up.

[5. More features will be gradually unlocked as more faces of the Original Sin Cube are illuminated.]

-

At this moment, with the energy reserve reaching 100%, the mysterious Rubik's Cube in front of Roy emitted a dazzling light, and on one side, the pattern was displayed with perfect clarity.

It was an animal shaped like a goat, with its edges tinged with a dark purple.

Based on the type of energy absorbed by the Original Sin Cube this time, the original sin characteristic corresponding to his talent is—[Lust].

Chapter 3 Infinite Desire

-

Current energy reserve progress: 100%

[Conditions met, activating the [Original Sin Cube]...]

[The detected original sin characteristic of the energy-absorbing main class is: lust—the desire for pleasure and the pursuit of stimulation are the most extreme sins of lust.]

[Light up the [Original Sin Cube - Chapter of Lust]!]

[Gained the talent - [Infinite Desire]]

[Infinite Desire]: It can devour any energy to satisfy its own desires.

-

inside the room.

The moment Roy was grabbed by the neck, he activated his talent [Infinite Desire].

Then he was filled to the brim.

It was filled to capacity in every sense of the word.

He felt like a balloon that had expanded to its limit, but the outside world kept pouring into him, so that the surface of the balloon became thinner and thinner, and even began to turn white.

In shock, Roy quickly shut down [Infinite Desire], cutting off external input to him, but even so, what had already been absorbed could not be returned, making him extremely uncomfortable.

If only my body could hold more...

The idea that popped into my head was miraculously realized in the next moment.

Roy felt the energy that filled him up disperse into countless trickles, flowing to every part of his body, nourishing his muscles, bones, internal organs, and even cells invisible to the naked eye.

Under this nourishing influence, Roy felt that he was in better shape than ever before.

The dispersed energy also greatly alleviated the feeling of bloating in the body. Although it still exists, it is foreseeable that it will gradually disappear over time.

"Hu Chi... Hu Chi..."

Inside the room, the slightly rapid breathing of a man and a woman could be heard.

He didn't know when, but the hand that had been choking him had disappeared. Roy looked in the direction of the white-haired, silver-eyed witch not far in front of him, and what came into view was this scene:

The dim candlelight and the crimson moonlight streaming in through the doorway intertwined, casting hazy shadows on the frost-covered ground. A young girl in a deep purple dress, with her white hair flowing freely and a faint blush on her face, slumped on the ground in an adorable duck-like pose.

This scene was so different from the cold and aloof demeanor of the white-haired, silver-eyed witch in his memory that Roy was momentarily stunned.
