Victor couldn’t help himself wanting to touch her when he saw her attributes. This one is a treasure. A honey trap waiting for him lick.

A Dark SCION is the opposite of Tom’s Heroic, She is fated to destroy things and seek revenge. If he obtained her he would probably be burnt by her fire too.

Her fate was different from Tom’s. It will only help her stay alive, nothing more. She would suffer and get hurt repeatedly as she grew. No help would arrive at the last moment for her. She is the protagonist you get when you read a tragedy.

This one was still in the making, he could tell because she is cursed by the LOCKER curse, one of the seven known SS curses.

This curse only works on unborn children. It will horde most of their points and experience he gains when he lives. And can only be dispelled by death when all the experience the LOCKER hoarded explode taking the life of the cursed one with it.

This girl's journey would start When the curse is broken. When she dies. As a Scion, she would miraculously return from the ashes to take revenge on the world.

Her Authority was not Law, She must have trained a lot, and been to many Dungeons. But all to no avail.

This girl(Boy) who sitting on the bunk bed didn’t look up when Victor was guided in by the guard. And only looked at him when she heard the cell door’s close. Victor could see the traces of tears on her(his) pretty face.

This girl was acting as a pretty boy. She had a story behind her. But Victor was hesitant. If he took her in, can he change her fate? Or would he be burned by her fire?

The temptation of having 2 Scions working for him was not a little one.

The girl felt shivers on her body when she saw Victor looking at her while drooling.

“I am a boy.” She said as she hugged her body,

“I know.” Victor nodded repeatedly as he whipped the drool with his cuff. Making her feel a chill up her spine. Is this guy another pervert? She thought.

He quickly corrected his posture and flashed a princely smile.

“Let me introduce myself, My name is Victor White. I am here for killing my brother.” He said. “What about you?” He asked.

The girl was astonished, she have never seen a person so shameless. Do you confess to killing your own brother and still want me to introduce myself?

She didn’t respond. Just looked away, probably hoping that she would get rid of him by ignoring him.

Victor frowned, it seems he needs to change his strategy. “Let me hit you where it hurts,” he thought.

“You have been kicked out of the thunder sect.” He said as he sat down on the opposing bed, making the girl look at him again in surprise and caution.

“How do you know that, Who are you? Have we met before?” She said as she got ready to fight and began to scan the cell for a potential weapon she can use.

“Don’t worry. I am a player too, and I can see the burns on your hand. Those should be from practicing the Thunder fist arts, right? Only the thunder sect knows those. ” He said with a smile. Her hands had some strange lightning-shaped scars.

She quickly sat down as she looked at her hands with sad eyes. And said nothing.

“I can tell that you are cursed too. What an evil curse this is.” He said as he inspected her.

This makes her look at him again, with a flicker of hope in her eyes.

“Can you see that, Can you tell whet it is?” She said with a pleading voice. The voice of someone on the verge of collapse. The experts who examined her before only knew that this Curse was a strong one. But none of them had the sufficient authority to examine it through. Let alone cure it.

“I know what it is, And I have a solution, But you have to tell me your story first. I won't help evil people.” Said Victor as he acted like a saint.

“Do you think of you are a beacon of righteousness? You just confessed murdering your own brother” The girl thought, But after a moment of pondering she decided to try her luck one last time. This is her last hope anyway, they are probably already on their way here to kill her.

“My name is Alex Blank. I am the only dau… Son of the previous Patriarch of the Thunder Sect.” She said as her eyes got filled slightly with tears. “My father passed away one month ago due to an illness. And I was supposed to be the next Patriarch. In the succession ceremony, I had sufficient authority to unlock the ancestral box and take the Patriarch's sign. But at that moment, I was betrayed by my fiancée who was guarding me. She stabbed me in the back and took the Sign to give it to the grand elder’s son, who was my best friend. He claimed that I was unfit to be a patriarch because I was weak. And became the new Patriarch with the approval of the elders.” She said as he balled her hand. Deep hatred could be heard in her trembling voice.

“You see, I have been always weak, and despite training better than anyone I never leveled up. I thought this was just my constitution, but one day a hermit visited my father. When he looked at me he said that I was cursed since birth, He didn’t have enough authority to know what curse it was, and he couldn’t dispel it. He said that I am destined to live as a weakling.” She added.

“I was able to survive the ceremony somehow. When I woke up I was in a prison cell in the sects punishment hall. They have healed me because they planned to use my body as a sacrifice in some summoning ritual. At that time, they have already killed everyone in my father fraction, Including the maids and guards.” She said as she wiped her tears.”I had a chance to escape a few days ago. I played a lot in the sect as a child and I knew about some secret tunnels which I used to get into my father’s study where I got some talismans then I escaped without looking back. Like a coward.” She said as she leaned on her knees, hiding her red eyes.

“Then why are you here?” Asked Victor in a soft voice.

“When I arrived at Vein city yesterday, I encountered an acquaintance by chance. She was my former fiancée who came here to attend the Elite academy. She wanted to arrest me as she was much stronger, but I used my last exploding ruin on her and killed her.” She said as tears fell from her eyes.

“And that’s When the police caught you?” Asked Victor.

Alex Nodded. “The sect would hear about her death and come for me. I would be dead by tomorrow night probably. That is my story. Can you help me now?” she asked as she looked at him. He was her last hope, She had this strange feeling that he can be trusted, and she could feel that he was much stronger than her.

“The curse you have is called the LOCKER curse, It stops you from leveling up. I can cure it. However, there would be a heavy price.” He said flatly.

“I am ready to pay you any price you ask for. Just let me take my revenge.” She said, she was not a fool, but she is that desperate. She would make a deal with the devil if he offered her one, let alone some insane young master.

Dark Scions have no bottom line. The world would always push them to the brink of collapse.

“ I have a few questions to ask you first,” He said.

“Please do ask.” She said.

“First What is the name of your mother, and where is she from?” He asked, a scion’s unknown ancestor can’t be normal.

Alex hesitated for a moment then answered,

“I don’t know. My father never told me.” She said, “He said that he will tell me once I am old enough,” She said as tears began to well in her eyes.

“Damn it.” Thought Victor. Her mother’s side was probably the one behind the curse, as the thunder sect was too weak for such things.

“The Second question. When did you escape exactly?”

“Ah, Four days ago, at dawn. The guard was drunk, so I was able to grab the keys and escape the cell by chance.” She answered while being proud of her wits.

“The last question. How did you get into Vein city?”

“Ah, It was a coincidence. I sneaked into a delivery truck that had to stop near the sect. And Vein city was its last stop.”

“I am fu*ked” That was what Victor thought, There are no coincidences in this world. This girl’s being here was not by chance.

He is sure now, She was the world’s backlash against him for using that the Authority bug, as he used it right around sunset the same moment she got her chance to escape.

The world has tied his fate to hers. He felt that connection the moment he passed her earlier in the corridor.

So even if he left her now, fate would bring them back together, probably as enemies.

If he took her in, The powers behind her mysterious mother would probably come to take his life with hers. She would survive of course and avenge him later. But he didn’t want to die in the first place.

As for the Thunder sect who would come looking for her. He didn’t care. They were not a major power, just a third-ranked sect. They would never dare to touch him.

He is dead either way. However, Victor Likes to take his fate with his own hands so his choice was clear.

“Become my slave. Not only will I remove your curse, but I will also help you with your revenge. I belong to the Von Weise family.” He said, making her hesitate. She expected something like that. The Von Weise family was one of the strongest powers. But what if he was scamming her?

“How can I trust you?” She asked. To be surprised by an ethereal scroll appearing in front of her eyes. CONTRACT was written on its header.

“This is a system binding contract, Do you know about those?” He asked.

Alex nodded as she read it. Her father had prepared her to be a patriarch in his position so she learned many things.

CONTRACT

1. The first party would become the slave of the second party.

2. The second party would dispel the curse on the first party.

3. The second party would aid the first party in its revenge.

The contract didn’t require her to disclose her gender. So she thought that she had found a non-existing bug. She would keep her gender a secret till the day she dies, she thought.

Hesitating a little, She bit her finger to bleed then signed the contract with her blood.

“How savage,“ said Victor as he used a little surgical needle to puncture his index finger and signed his part too.

The Contract shone in white light and disappeared in two parts going into Alex’s and Victor’s souls.

“Now drink my blood.” Said Victor as he raised his bleeding thumb in front of Alex’s face. “This is the first step in dispelling the curse. Be aware though, this will make you my slave.” He said.

Alex hesitate for a moment, then quickly licked his finger and swallowed, feeling the strange energy going through her body.

Victor looked at her and smiled. This time there was no backlash. And no sane person would trust a stranger that fast. Fate is at play here. And dark Scions were meant to suffer.

Notice

Blood slave Added 2/3

Victor nodded his head, He could feel his fate threads were wrapping hers. No going back now.

“Now let me dispel your curse.” He said as he operated the store and bought Curse dispelling talisman for 1000 COINs.

“This will not work.” Said Alex in disappointment when she saw the talisman, isn’t this the cheapest one? She thought as she was losing hope.

“I know what I am doing,” said Victor as he marked the talisman with his blood then put it on Alex’s forehead.

Attempting Curse removal.

Required authority SS -> 999999.

Sufficient authority found.

Dispelling Curse.

Curse Dispelled

A light shone from Alex’s body as she heard the sound of a glass wall breaking, then all the experiencing points the curse where hoarding flooded into her body. But everything suddenly stopped. She didn’t level up.

“What happened? Was the curse lifted?” She asked.

“The curse was dispelled. But you cannot level up in the normal world. You must be inside an active dungeon. Check your stat screen to view your experience” Said Victor as he used some alcohol to disinfect his finger then put a bandage on it.

“Ah.” Alex quickly remembered how the leveling works. And she quickly operated her screen.

“Wahh” She screamed in surprise as she saw the astronomical number of points, then she began to sob. The curse that haunted her and was the cause of her father’s death was dispelled at last.

Victor who stood beside her gently patter her head. He didn’t intend to tell her that he knew her secret. Just leave it for a good opportunity.

“Don’t worry, Every month many dungeons get discovered. So when one of them opens nearby, we would go check it.” He said as he took the medical kit he was using and put it in Alex’s hand.

“Treat your finger, It looks nasty.” He said making Alex quickly take some cotton and clean the wound. With some embarrassment.

Wait for a second, where did he get those from?

“Now I have to sleep. And you will act as my pillow.” He said interrupting her thoughts.

“But I am a boy!” She said in surprise.

“I know, but I don’t discriminate,” He said as he invited her to his bed.
