BXBX NOVEL Chapter 69 Era Of Dimension (1)
"Naturally if you follow me, you won\'t be able to leave. However, let me clarify one thing: you won\'t be the only one!"
Hilda narrowed her beautiful eyes at the last part, "What do you mean?"
Cyrus shrugged his shoulder, "It is exactly what it sounded like. Don\'t worry. I won\'t force you to have an intimate relationship with me until you\'re ready. Didn\'t I say Dao companionship is far deeper than marriage? I\'m just making it clear so you won\'t be confused in the future.
"A teacher-student relationship only last until the student learns everything from the teacher and leaves once the student completes his studies. However, as I said before, following me means following for life, so Dao companionship is more appropriate." He explained without hiding anything.
He could\'ve simply told her a lie and tricked her before developing her feeling for him, but he didn\'t since it was beneath him to trick a mortal woman.
Furthermore, he still didn\'t forget about the LXP, and no matter how special Hilda was, for Cyrus, his own life came first before anything else. Besides, he wasn\'t tricking her and giving her far too more than she could\'ve even dreamed of.
Cyrus knew Hilda\'s hunger for power and then destroyed everything with that power, and for this exact reason, she would follow him no matter what because he had proven to be the strongest in front of her, and he also knew the secret of the power she had.
He even gave her back the bloodline pill, which was quite apparent that he wasn\'t interested in that bloodline and only wanted her.
Hilda remained silent for a while and looked at Cyrus, who was standing there without rushing her. She had this complicated look in her eyes as she looked at the handsome young man in front of her who was bluntly telling her that he would seek more women while also proposing to her.
She never thought this kind of \'honest man\' even existed.
In the end, she finally spoke, "So, you won\'t force me to be intimate with you as long as I don\'t want to and still teach me? What if I never let you touch me or run away after getting what I want?"
Hilda was intelligent enough to know Cyrus might have already thought about this problem and might already have a solution for it, especially if she decided to run away after acquiring his secrets.
Cyrus laughed lightly when he heard this question, "Haha, in the first case, I\'ll respect your wishes. I won\'t like forcing myself on women who don\'t want me to. But you will remain by my side; that is enough. It is a privilege of any Dao companion. As for the latter case, once you start following me, you\'ll know there\'s no place in this universe where I couldn\'t find you."
Although his words had no intent behind them, Hilda felt Cyrus wasn\'t joking.
"Then what about my family? Can I still say goodbye before I start following you?" Hilda asked as her voice was now completely cold, just like before.
Cyrus shook his head, "They won\'t let you follow me until they see what you can by following me. How about this? I\'ll help you deliver a message to that fifth-class sorcerer who you called Uncle. But you can\'t see him until I allow you to."
Hilda\'s eyes widened ever so slightly, \'So, he was listening to our conversation, and even Uncle Grey didn\'t notice him?\'
She still thought that Grey could at least escape Cyrus with his prowess, but now she didn\'t think of it anymore. He was simply too unfathomed.
In the end, she agreed with Cyrus because, just as she said, her Uncle would never allow her to follow Cyrus, and he might try to fight him if he felt Cyrus was threatening her to follow him.
Besides, it wasn\'t the first time she was going to live away from her family, so she should be able to handle it, and Cyrus didn\'t oppose the notion of her going back as well.
"Alright, as long as you keep your promise, I\'ll follow you as long as you live." Hilda nodded with emotionless eyes.
Cyrus nodded in agreement, "I believe you. Now, tell me about what this oath relic is and why it is so important?"
"With your prowess, you didn\'t even know what an oath relic is?" Hilda narrowed her eyes.
Cyrus looked at her doubtful eyes and clarified, "I might\'ve known it, but the name should be different from how you guys identify this item. I\'ll know as long as you can tell me what this object does."
"Just where did you come from?" She asked, full of uncertainty. It was quite clear that Cyrus wasn\'t an aborigine, and his background shouldn\'t be simple.
Cyrus\'s lips curled up, "If I tell you I\'m a native of the slum district, do you believe me?"
"I like your humor." Hilda scoffed. She would rather believe that he was god than believe he was one of those exiles.
Cyrus merely smiled and didn\'t say anything as Hilda started to explain to him just how Grey did to her about how the oath relic was placed to keep some powerful existences in check.
After hearing Hilda\'s explanation, realization dawned upon Cyrus before his expression turned solemn, \'Someone was able to bring out a Sacred Oath Contract? Their origin might be at least deity grade.\'
"Where is the location of this oath relic?" He asked.
Hilda didn\'t hide it and revealed, "Uncle has an old map of this place, and according to the map, it should be in somewhere between the area called District A-3."
Cyrus\'s eyes narrowed, "The place she described is actually where the heart zone was. And I didn\'t find the sacred oath contract there. Had I missed it, or is the location different?\'
"Well, if that place you described is the same as the place I\'m thinking of. Then it\'s only half an hour away from here. Let\'s go." Cyrus stated.
Hilda was startled, and something came to her mind, "Don\'t tell me you had been there? Are you the one who destroys the dimension?"
Cyrus chuckled and admitted it, "That dimension got in my way, so I naturally destroyed it."
Hilda gave him a strange looked before she said, "You could\'ve easily controlled it and waited before its passage was opened. It would\'ve been more beneficial for you."
Cyrus was startled by his unexpected reply and asked, "Now, what is that supposed to mean?"
Hilda was lost for words and narrowed her eyes into slits, "Don\'t tell me you didn\'t even know about dimensions?"
Cyrus sighed as he was really clueless when it came to dimensions, so he said, "I won\'t hide it from you. The dimensions are quite novel to me because there is no such thing as dimensions where I came from. How about you share your knowledge with me while we head in your Uncle\'s direction."
Before Hilda could reply, a wind stairstep materialized in front of Cyrus, and he stepped on it, startling Hilda.
"Come on; those undead won\'t annoy us this way. Don\'t tell me, without your magic power, you\'re afraid of heights?" Cyrus chuckled as he created more wind steps to start climbing toward the horizon.
Hilda had never seen someone using wind magic like this, and after some hesitation, she moved her long leg and tried stepping on that ethereal stairstep.
When she felt solid support, she was even more shocked, and with astonishment, she slowly followed Cyrus while the stairs below started to vanish.
"Don\'t worry. I won\'t let you fall. Now you can continue with the dimensions." Cyrus said as he saw Hilda was carefully following. She was afraid of falling down. It was quite enough as it is that she was following him despite the possibility that Cyrus would let her fall to her death.
So, he created a Qi rope and bound her waist with his, which provided Hilda some more security while she admired Cyrus\'s use of magic even more.
Afterward, Hilda started to explain the dimensions, and she decided to explain it from the start.
It all started over five hundred years ago when humans lived their day-to-day lives peacefully. At that time, the concept of magic was mere fantasy.
However, everything changed when a bright white light appeared out of nowhere and enveloped every nook of the world before vanishing completely, and it all happened within one second.
That moment was known as the \'Destiny Changer Flash\' in the history of this world because it was the exact moment that changed the entire density of humankind.
Because right after that flash, the very first dimension of the history of this world appeared. It was the start of a new era, the Era of Dimensions, the Dimension Year (DY) 1!
