Hilda was dumbfounded when she saw those \'rewards\' which were nothing but promises. But when she thought that promise was from Cyrus himself, she became instantly ecstatic.
Then all of a sudden, the system voice rang again.
"[You have cleared the First Floor Trial!]
"[Do you want to move to the Second Floor Trial?]"
"[If you decide to choose not to, then you can choose to take the second-floor trial anytime you want. There is currently no restriction, and there is no penalty for failure!]
"[Please choose in 1 minute or you will be automatically sent to your Temple Residence.]"
\'There is no penalty or limit to how many times I can try? Then this means there will be a penalty in the future?\' Hilda\'s mind raced before determination shone in her eyes, "I want to continue."
Although the first trial was totally out of her expectation, somehow, she managed to pass it perfectly. So, she didn\'t want to stop just here yet and wanted to test her limits as well as scout what kind of trial she had to conquer to move to the higher floors.
"[Temple Devotee Hilda has decided to challenge the Second Floor Trial!]
"[Please head to the Second Floor, Temple Devotee Hilda!]"
Just as the system\'s voice trailed off, a doorway suddenly slid open in the section where Hilda was standing, and there were stairways leading upward in the temple.
Hilda looked at the passage for a moment before she moved without hesitation.
---
\'So, she managed to pass all three conditions. I expected nothing less from the harbinger of calamity. Her will is commendable.\' Cyrus thought with a pleased expression.
However, suddenly a panel opened in front of him before the system\'s voice rang.

The next moment, Cyrus felt a huge surge of warm energy infiltrating his body as his power started to surge while the Lust Sword in his hand also started to shimmer darkly.
This sudden windfall was completely unexpected but highly appreciated.
When all the rewards were absorbed, Cyrus\'s eyes shimmered like stars as he asked the system, "The last reward is not one time, right? As long as more devotee members will add to the list, I will gain the same rewards since you clearly don\'t write \'One Time\' there?"
"[Yes.]"
System\'s affirmative answer made Cyrus genuinely ecstatic as he never expected the entire dimension temple would be this beneficial to his growth, and he no longer dared to put any limiter on it anymore.
"Will I always get a one-time reward whenever someone achieves a new rank?" Cyrus asked another important question.
"[Yes.]"
"Now, this is something you should\'ve told me sooner, but no worries. I learn it in just time." Cyrus sneered, but he was not mad at all since he knew the system likes to reveal this type of thing in just a nick of time.
Nevertheless, since he now knew there were over a million SP and LXP lying around for him to take, he couldn\'t keep the temple close for a few months. It would be a huge waste, not to mention he would be stopping his own growth.
\'It seemed I need to select more women in secret.\' Cyrus instantly started to make some minor changes to his plan.
"Why do I always get so little XP than you?" Eve questioned with a tone filled with indignation.
"Why do you sound so down? If anyone complained, it would be me since your XP cap won\'t increase past 10,000 at all. While looking at mine, it has already jumped to 150,000, and if you include the LXP as well, it would be 300,000. So, now tell me, do you still think your XP count is not fair?" Cyrus perplexedly refuted at this moment as he was also keeping this small resentment in his heart all this time.
But he never said anything since he didn\'t want to sound petty or jealous of his own woman. It was simply beneath him. But now Eve was asking for it as she hit a very sore nerve.
If Cyrus could replace anything in the system, he would definitely remove these annoying SP and LXP meters which limit his growth too much, and he was doing all of this because of these two meters as well.
"Alright, I get it. Why are you so aggressive all of a sudden?" Eve weakly retorted, clearly understanding that it was really her fault as she spoke on impulse as usual.
"Just don\'t bring up these damn points in the future. They are nothing but a limiter placed on both of us, but I guess this is the price you have to pay for being superior to others and more powerful." Cyrus wryly stated as he knew he was just being greedy.
Although the SP and LXP seemed like limiters, but he knew better than anyone that they were both far more beneficial to him than he gave them credit for and the system was probably the only thing that could make something like this possible.
"Hehehe, alright, still, it\'s quite novel to see you so annoying, though." Eve giggled playfully as she already forgot about her previous conduct.
Cyrus chuckled and ignored the fickle-minded girl as he paid attention to the second floor, where Hilda had just walked out from a passage that vanished the moment she stepped into the second floor.
Everyone was surprised at this moment because the second floor, unlike the first floor, which was completely white, was actually a grass field with a seemingly real sky above, and it also seemed endless!
The system voice rang at this moment,
"[Welcome to the Second Trial Floor, Temple Devotee Hilda!]
"[NOTE: This Floor can only be accessed by one temple devotee participant at a time and is unassessable until the first participant is undergoing the trial!]
"[Second Origin Lust Sword Temple Floor Trial for Origin Lust Sword Temple Worshiper will now begin!]
"[Phase 1: Please kill 100 creatures of the same power rank as you using only personal skills and abilities!]
"[Warning (1): No external items such as medicine, weapons, armor, and such are allowed! If you are caught using at any moment, the trial will be deemed failed!
"[Warning (2): This trial can result in the Temple Devotee\'s death. If you are on your limit, please shout or think \'Withdraw\' and the trial will be stopped! Dimension Ruler can stop the trial on his behest as well!]"
Cyrus couldn\'t help but shake his head at this moment.
"What? You also think she\'s going to be failed?" Eve asked curiously.
Cyrus chuckled in amusement, "What makes you think she will be failed? I\'m shaking my head because this trial is too simple for someone like Hilda. Just watch, and you\'ll see what a natural-born deity looks like when it fought!"
The system voice rang in his head again right after the trial was started.
