"No, it's okay. Since you are out of your kingdom, you should keep it for yourself. This much wound will slowly fade away."
"Besides, the scar left after a near-death experience isn't a bad thing." Kim imdiately shook his head and stopped her.
Hinata was surprised by his response. She didn't argue with him. After all, what he said was true.
She had no intention of returning back to her kingdom any ti soon.
So, she wanted to keep it to herself. But since Kim saved her life, she had no choice but to give it to him.
She would rather die than repay soone's kindness with greed.
"By the way, I still don't know your na. My na is Hinata Shura." She imdiately changed the topic and asked.
Asura! It was the na of a race, not the na of a family. But in Asura Race, the most powerful and royal family was called Shura.
They embraced this surna because it not only represent their race but also their insane power.
"My na is Kim Woo. I just recently beca a martial artist." Kim smiled and introduced himself.
"What? You just beca a martial artist? How could this be possible? You took down those five assassins. Even though they were low-ranking martial artists, they were still assassins."
Hinata properly didn't rember how he took down his enemy. So, when she heard that he was just a beginner, she was shocked.
"I have no reason to lie to you. The only reason why I won was sneak attacks. I can't explain it in detail." Kim shook his head and answered.
Hearing his words, Hinata remained silent. She couldn't believe Kim was able to take down assassins with a sneak attack.
She wasn't an idiot. She knew just how powerful his sneak attack would need to be to take down assassins.
After all, assassins were the father of sneak attacks.
"Anyway, since you are not planning on returning back to your kingdom, where do you plan to go? You should be aware of your situation, right?" Kim asked.
His plan was simple. He wanted to get close to her but not try to be obsessive with her.
Rather, he wanted her to stay with him as a friend and slowly develop the relationship.
He would be an idiot if he try to ignore this beauty. She was just seventeen and she had already developed her body.
He couldn't imagine just how good she would be after a few more years.
Hearing his words, Hinata lowered her head for a mont. She had no idea where she want to go.
After all, she didn't even know whether more assassins would co after her or not.
"If you don't have a place to go, why not co to my town? It is a small town near this mountain. If you have so money, then you can buy a small house and stay there."
"As long as you don't actively reveal your identity, you would safe there. If you don't have money, you can stay at my house for a while."
"Although it would be a little difficult for you, it is only for short ti." Kim made his suggestion while looking into her eyes.
Hinata suddenly got flustered when she heard his suggestion. But, she was a strong girl. She instantly controlled her feelings and spoke.
"I did bring so money with but I plan to use it for martial arts training. If you don't mind, can I stay in your house for a while?"
Actually, there were two reasons why she didn't want to use her money. First, as she said she wanted to use it for martial art training. Second, she didn't want to raise any suspicion about her identity.
After all, if she buy land and started living alone, there would be several interactions she would need to make with others.
So, her identity would eventually leak out.
She was a smart girl. She wouldn't let her feelings bother her martial training.
Her desire was to beco the strongest in this world. She even escaped from her kingdom just so that she could start her training one year early.
She loved martial art more than anything else in this world.
Kim was surprised by her straightforward answer. But, he didn't think too much and nodded his head.
"Alright! Then, after we eat, let's move out."
Hinata also nodded her head and focused on cooking the food.
On the other hand, Kim finally got a chance to focus on his quest.
[You have completed the quest]
[You received 200 Harem Points, Emperor's Eyes, Battle Spirit Awakening, and Heavenly Asura Blade]
[Would you like to rge with Emperor's Eyes?]
[Yes] [No]
[Would you like to awaken Battle Spirit?]
[Yes] [No]
He thought for a mont and looked at Hinata.
"Hinata, can you go out for a mont?"
Hinata was surprised by his question but didn't think too much. She stood up and walked out of the cave.
"System, how long will it take to rge with Emperor's Eyes and awaken Battle Spirit?" As soon as she left, Kim asked.
[It would take three minutes to rge with Emperor's Eyes and one minute to awaken Battle Spirit.]
"Can you do both at the sa ti?" Kim asked. Although he knew the system should be able to do it, he didn't want to take any risk.
[Yes]
Looking at its reply, Kim smiled and clicked on both yes at the sa ti.
At this mont, a terrifying energy burst out of him. This energy was so powerful that the ground beneath him started to vibrate.
The awakening of battle spirit!
What was Battle Spirit?
It was the soul of a fighter. It was a courage of a human. And, it was a lifeline for martial artists.
Without awakening Battle Spirit, most martial artists would never be able to reach the top of the world.
Battle Spirit was the essence of a martial artist. Every Martial Artist wants to awaken their Battle Spirit.
But to do so, they need to go through hundreds of battles. Each battle would temper their Will and courage. Each battle increases their experience and wisdom.
Slowly, when those things rge together with his soul, it slowly forms Battle Spirit.
But for Kim, with the help of the Lust System, he was able to rge experience, wisdom, Will, courage, and his own soul together without going through different battles to awaken his Battle Spirit.
All the experience, wisdom, Will, and courage had already been stored inside the Lust System.
Now, it only needed it to rge with his soul.
And, when that happened, his Battle Spirit was finally awakened.
In the center of his dantian, a new life form was slowly awakening. It was in the shape of a human. But, it had the breath of Asura.
Its body was covered in flas and lightning. The pupils were yellow with three black circles. These were the eyes of the Emperor.
At this mont, Kim suddenly entered a strange state.
His mind drifted into a space where there was a war. He was looking at the war between different races. The battle was filled with misery and loss.
Thousands, if not millions were dying each hour.
But, the battle wasn't ending. Several powerful forces were constantly breaking the earth and the sky.
A slap shattered the ground. A swing of a sword split the mountain. A small burst of fla burned thousands of people. Dozens of lightning struck from the sky.
In the middle of all this, there was a man standing with yellow pupils. He was overlooking the entire battle with his sharp eyes, treating them as ants.
Kim was also looking at him. He knew those eyes were the eyes he inherited but there was no such thing as entering this state.
It was sothing that Kim never wrote in the ga.
Of course, he didn't care about that.
He wasn't just looking at the battle. He was absorbing it.
The vast number of strategies, techniques, elental powers, bloodlines, and constitutions. He was absorbing all of these into his mind.
He was a genius. The first thing a genius does is observe. So, when he observed the battle, his mind was constantly absorbing the things that he observed.
It was just an experience but it was quite a powerful experience.
Kim felt like he was staying in this state for a long ti. He panicked. He didn't want to stay in this state for long. But, he couldn't simply leave either.
Although he was just watching and absorbing the experience, it was quite a huge help to him.
His greed wasn't allowing him to leave.
But, after a while, he forcefully pushed himself out of this state. When his mind escaped that state, he suddenly realized that the process of rging his Emperor Eyes hadn't been completed it.
Lust System never lies.
So, he entered that state and the ti outside froze. Or, rather the ti in that state went too fast.
His face turned green. He couldn't believe that he missed such a great opportunity.
He wanted to slap himself at this mont.
He wanted to cry but tears won't co out.
