Chapter 52 - Sin of Lust, Punished with Flames

Bonus chapter as thanks to AnnaH‘s kofis~

What do you mean by ‘just want to have a look’?!

What ‘just’? What else could you possibly want to do?!

Suo Fei didn’t dare ask it out loud. However, he couldn’t abandon Samael and leave by himself. Since Samael didn’t leave, he could only stand still like a block of wood.

Then, he used a clever trick to calm his excitement, which was to not cast any glance at Samael’s body and to only look at his illusionary self.

How could Laozi’s skin be so fair? How could Laozi’s waist be so thin? How could Laozi be so debauched? How could Laozi have such a loud voice? The ceiling almost collapsed because of those f**king moans. Illusion, you are too unqualified!

Laozi is clearly a gong. Why are you passively being tossed about? You did nothing apart from groaning and moaning! Weak! You’re too weak! 【stoic face】

The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the illusion was too effeminate and too much like a shou. It was truly unlike his real disposition.

What should he do if Samael actually believed that he’s like that? It would be too shameful for him to explain.

Thus, he tugged Samael and spoke with great solemnity, “I’m not like that.”

“Huh?”

Suo Fei thought that Samael didn’t understand so he earnestly reflected for a while before saying, “I- I wouldn’t be that loud.” He was looking at Samael from the side as he said this. With the sensual atmosphere permeating the air, Suo Fei’s voice unknowingly rose slightly at the end of his sentence, extremely different from his usual tone.

Samael turned to look at him, his purple eyes outrageously bright. He forced calmness into his voice before speaking, “Suo Fei, who am I?

The stunned Suo Fei instinctively answered, “Samael.”

As soon as he spoke, the illusionary Suo Fei also spoke out, “... I want...”

When joined together, they happened to be, “Samael... I want ...”

The shameless Suo Fei’s face immediately blushed with shame.

Samael smiled at him and whispered, “Very well.”

In the illusion, Samael slammed himself into Suo Fei. His tempo was fast and relentless, eliciting high-pitched moans from Suo Fei. They were consumed in their intense lovemaking, letting out cries of pleasure, gradually clouding the real Suo Fei’s sense of reason which he had been trying to maintain.

Suo Fei could only empty his mind. He tried not to look at anything and think about anything. Ignoring his body’s reaction, he began chanting mantras in his head.

After god knows how long, the two finally climaxed at the same time. Their surroundings finally calmed down.

Suo Fei was greatly relieved. We should have passed the trial by now.

However, Samael remained motionless.

Suo Fei opened his eyes. He almost spat out a mouthful of blood upon seeing the scene in front of him.

This damned Trial Grounds’ bottom line keeps on getting lower and lower. It has reached a terrifying low, alright.

The illusions had not disappeared. The stark-naked illusionary Suo Fei actually stood up and swayed as he slowly walked towards Samael, doing his utmost to seduce the real Samael.

Suo Fei badly wanted to hack someone with a knife, but unfortunately, he was soon occupied as the fake Samael also started walking towards him, staring at him with a lustful gaze. Suo Fei unconsciously swallowed his saliva.

At this time, Samael took his hand and said, “Let’s go.”

Suo Fei absentmindedly followed Samael. This scene was strange in a way that words couldn’t describe. They walked hand in hand while their illusions tried their best to entice them.

Suo Fei thought that if he entered this Trial Grounds on his own, he would have failed long ago. He could easily go through the first level’s ladies. He could also persevere through the group of men in the second level. When it came to the third level’s live-action gay film, he would probably pass despite having an unsteady conviction. The fourth level, however... With Samael enticing him...

Even though it was only an illusion, he absolutely wouldn’t be able to endure it.

Fortunately, their real bodies were here, so the allure of the illusions had been greatly reduced.

As long as it continued this way, they would be able to leave this place.

Endure. The exit is within reach.

The two remained unaffected until the illusion finally disappeared. The surroundings became dark once again, giving prominence to the light at the exit.

Is the trial finally over?

He dared not speak affirmatively. This wretched place is too damn unpredictable... But, there shouldn’t be any more surprises this time, right? It should have already used up all its tricks.

Then, the surrounding lit up again and sure enough... It’s still not over?

The exit was already near and they could surely go out without difficulty. However, the sight in front of Suo Fei made him dumbstruck.

This time, there were also two people. One was Suo Fei, and the other... was actually Manzy.

Suo Fei had an extremely bad hunch in his heart. At this moment, Samael’s footsteps stopped abruptly.

In the illusion, Manzy gently caressed Suo Fei’s back. Suo Fei leaned on him with a loving expression that couldn’t be concealed. Like an obedient kitten, he looked up slightly and parted his lips, silently waiting for a kiss.

Manzy’s hand slowly caressed him up and down. Then, he lowered his head and their lips were about to touch.

A sharp sword Qi swept past and the illusionary Manzy instantly vanished without a trace.

Suo Fei was startled and turned around to see Samael who was surrounded by a murderous aura. His fingertips were dripping with blood, the Asura Blade’s pitch-black blade drawing in the lustre around it.

This... This... Suo Fei’s brain crashed.

Is this considered a response? They were only one step away from the exit but they actually failed?

I’ve endured past the previous levels and there’s only one level left but we actually... actually...

The illusionary Suo Fei also disappeared not long after and the whole place began to collapse. Suo Fei had not lost his mind. Seeing the exit right in front of him, he dragged Samael as he ran towards the exit, but it was too late.

The exit disappeared and the place plunged into darkness. Their bodies also began to plummet. Samael managed to pull Suo Fei into his embrace in time, hugging him with one hand. Unfortunately, neither of them could fly so they could only wait for them to reach the ground.

After landing, an ancient and profound voice sounded in their ears, “Invader, enter the city of endless suffering. Sin of Lust, punished with flames.”

Countless thoughts flashed in Suo Fei’s mind. Listening to these words, would they be burned with fire? Fire Magic was one of Yalance’s elemental magic. Ordinary flames wouldn’t be able to harm them if they had fire-resistant equipment.

Before leaving, Eugene had crafted equipments that had extremely high defensive power for them. Therefore, he wasn’t that worried despite knowing that he would be caught in a raging fire. Not to mention, he had countless beast furs in his interspatial bag. Thus, he was extremely assured.

However, it definitely wouldn’t be that simple.

Their surroundings were still in utter darkness, but only for a moment. A fire suddenly sprang to life. Whoomph! The flames shot higher and higher, surrounding them in an instant.

Then, a revolving ball of flame that was no less than five metres appeared in front of them.

Suo Fei looked at it and was shocked. This is... a Fire Elemental.

Their presence served as an indication that they were in a perilous situation.

The primal elemental magic types in Yalance were Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth. There were Elementals for each of the five elemental magic types. They were born from the essence of one of the elemental magic. Their powers were one of the best in Yalance.

Samael placed Suo Fei in a corner before he drove his sword towards the Fire Elemental.

Samael’s physical attack was tyrannical and the Asura Blade’s bonus AD was terrifying. Samael had been suppressing a great deal of anger so his attack brought a calamitous momentum.

With just one strike, the Fire Elemental’s physical defenses immediately became zero, its body receiving serious damage.

However, this was just the beginning.

Suo Fei was on pins and needles after recollecting the information he knew about Fire Elementals. This thing is really troublesome.

Samael wielded his Asura Blade to attack once again with even greater ferocity, directly slicing the Fire Elemental into half.

It exploded with a loud bang.

Suo Fei’s pupils constricted as he shouted to Samael, “Be careful! It’s now formless!”

As soon as his voice fell, the flames that had scattered quickly fused and resumed its original appearance. Its physical defense also returned to its full value.

It shot out a huge fireball from its gaping mouth. Samael luckily had Suo Fei’s physique so he merely jumped to dodge the fireball.

However, countless fireballs fell from the sky like a meteor shower. Even Archmages had difficulty casting this horrifying fire-type attack spell. For the Elementals, however, it was as easy as pie.

There was simply no end to them.

Samael and Suo Fei could do nothing but dodge, especially since there were too many of them. Suo Fei had difficulty evading so Samael had to carry him while dodging. As such, their agility was greatly lowered. Samael was hit several times in order to protect Suo Fei.

The situation would have been more dreadful if not for the equipments that Eugene had given them.

The situation was too static. Suo Fei gritted his teeth and said to Samael, “Let me down.”

Samael spared him no glance. While dodging the rain of fire, the Asura Blade dealt another fatal blow to the Fire Elemental. However, the Elemental respawned with full HP and stats at the same location within a few seconds.

F**k!

This f**ker is like a cockroach that can’t be killed!

This Elemental simply couldn’t be depleted unless there were no more fire elements in Yalance. Besides, the Elemental could reabsorb the fire elements that had been sliced off by Samael.

On the contrary, he and Samael were constantly depleting their energy. Samael was a heaven-defying existence, but since he’s ceaselessly exerting himself in battle, his power and HP were constantly being consumed. Thus, there would be a time that he would run out of power.

At that time, they could only wait for their deaths. Especially since Samael’s strength had been greatly reduced with him as a burden. How could they win in such a situation?

Suo Fei hollered out once again, “Trust me. I can protect myself. You should just focus on attacking it! This thing must have a weakness. It’s just that we haven’t discovered it!”

His words made perfect sense. Anything that existed in this world couldn’t possibly be perfect. The Elemental certainly must have a weakness. They were uncertain as to where it was, but as long as they paid close attention, it’s impossible for them not to discover it.

Thus, Samael let Suo Fei down during a respite from the oncoming attacks and hurriedly reminded, “Remember your promise.”

Suo Fei froze slightly, then nodded solemnly, “I won’t die.”

After he spoke, the damned undying Elemental f**king respawned once again.

The rain of fire’s AoE was too large. At first glance, there seemed to be no blind-spots but one would be able to find them if they paid more attention.

Suo Fei had enough agility but not enough stamina. He gritted his teeth and endured with all his might. At this moment, he remembered the potions that Antonio had previously given him. He looked for potions that could temporarily increase one’s agility and drank them all at once.

It didn’t have much effect, but something was still better than nothing. It could at least buy him some time.

Suo Fei didn’t need to attack the Elemental, merely focusing on evading. He could hold out for a short time, especially since Samael launched a full-scale attack whenever there’s an opportunity, earning them some time to rest during the Elemental’s respawn time. These brief, few seconds only allowed them to take a short breather.

They sustained themselves in such a manner for a long time until Suo Fei had consumed all the potions that he could consume. He had already over-exerted himself, thus affecting his ability to respond. His eyes were also aching with exhaustion.

As such, Suo Fei’s eyes widened in shock and couldn’t react when he saw a fireball heading towards his head at a high speed. Samael teleported and appeared in front of him in an instant, blocking the fireball in time.

However, it had made a hole in his clothes near his chest.

Although Eugene’s equipment wasn’t at the same level as a divine artifact, it could still be considered as a treasure. However, it was currently riddled with holes. It could be seen how fierce the battle had been.

Suo Fei’s mind was buzzing. He could only quickly heal Samael and feed him some beast blood when the Elemental was respawning. However, it only granted them temporary relief as the Elemental’s respawn time became shorter and shorter.

Suo Fei was left incomparably exhausted due to the unending battle. At the same time, a faint sense of despair rose within him.

Samael suddenly told him, “Suo Fei, give me a piece of Frostflame Beast’s fur.”

Suo Fei had more than two thousand beast furs in his interspatial bag which he had collected during his time in Bois Canyon, which included several FrostFlame Beast’s furs.

Suo Fei immediately took out a beast fur without thinking after hearing Samael’s words.

Frostflame Beasts were huge in size and had amazing fur. In addition, their furs were high-grade materials that were extremely fire-resistant.

Samael held the beast fur and moved swiftly while using the beast fur as protection. Then, under Suo Fei’s astonished gaze, he used the beast fur like a burlap sack and confined the Elemental in it.

T-this... This is such a stroke of genius!

Elementals could only deal magic damage and not physical damage. Hence, it wouldn’t be able to break free if trapped. Moreover, all of the fireballs it released would be blocked by the beast fur. As long as the beast fur wasn’t damaged, this chump could only fight with itself!

Oh my, ​​that’s great! Suo Fei jumped up and down in excitement and gave Samael a kiss.

Samael was startled but a faint smile appeared on his pale face. However, his attention was drawn to the left ahead of him, his voice dropping an octave, “It’s time to end this.”

Suo Fei was confused so he followed his gaze and shockingly discovered a figure in the dark corner.

Black hair and purple eyes... It’s a primeval demon!

What’s going on?!

Suo Fei was still confounded when Samael rushed over at breakneck speed. The Asura Blade’s sword Qi shot out, brimming with suppressed fury.

The demon tried to ward off Samael’s aggressive advances, but his defense was instantly breached and he was pierced by the Asura Blade.

The next moment, the primeval demon vanished, turning into ashes.

Suo Fei realised that the Elemental should have been the demon’s summoned beast. Wait, how could a demon control an Elemental?

He had yet to figure out the relation between the two when the beast fur confining the Elemental finally couldn’t bear the damage.

The Elemental that ought to die but wouldn’t die made its appearance once again.

The extremely vigilant Suo Fei wanted to take out another beast fur from his interspatial bag but was stopped by Samael.

The Elemental was actually a huge ball of flame, it didn’t have any facial features or a particular form. At this moment in time, however, at the place where its head should be, a sparkling pair of eyes appeared.

It no longer released its rain of fire. Instead, its huge body wandered, looking around with a foolish expression.

It searched the place all over and found nothing. So, its big eyes landed on Samael and Suo Fei. It blinked its eyes repeatedly and, after a while, sobbingly ran over.
