The Legacy System

Ren Jia still couldn't believe what he said, as she had never considered those words, or the threat to be true.

In fact, it wasn't only Ren Jia who thought that the rumor was just a way to garner attention and resources.

While Earth didn't claim to have the best technology in outer space, they didn't believe that something that hadn't had happened for so many eons and billions of years would happen now.

Furthermore, their satellites, eyes, and ears on outer space had found no sign of anything approaching the planet, so they had even more evidence to throw down those claims.

With the partial exception of the Council of Five, all the other governments, and organizations of the world had clearly, and openly refuted his claims.

But Eric wasn't worried about that, because he understood that even when S-day happened in front of their own eyes, they would still refute his claim.

Why!?

Really simple actually, they couldn't and didn't want to accept his claims because he wasn't part of their structures.

They most probably felt that once they accepted his claims, they were accepting their inferiority towards him, and the organizations or governments that he was tied with.

Such a thing had happened through all the history of humanity, this wasn't the first time, and it wouldn't be the last either.

Take religions, for example, the moment that these religions were spread by the poor people, they would be either suppressed, or attacked, and completely destroyed.

Once the big powers took control of these religions and could use them in their favor, these religions flourished like mushrooms after rain.

Another good example would be fame after death. Since the character is no longer alive, and could no longer gain, or influence others due to their fame and popularity they are hailed as great humans.

But, when they were still alive and kicking not only would no one care about them but they would also be ostracized and thrown out of society.

Whether that was their luck, or their punishment depended only on them. At the moment, Eric's claims weren't made known to the wide public, so he was still in the grey area.

Furthermore, he had his mysterious Master as backup, and no one would want to court death without knowing why.

But he understood perfectly that the moment he made public claims, or even thought about it, then he would become the common enemy of the whole Earth Planet.

When the S-day happened, and history progressed people would hail him as a hero, or as a 'prophet' but by then he would have died and rotten 10 feet underground.

It was precisely for that reason that Eric didn't try, or even think of spreading the word for the S-day to the common people.

His words would not only cause extreme chaos, but those people wouldn't even appreciate it, and would just throw him on the stakes.

Thinking like that Eric didn't know how to feel exactly, but the next instant it didn't matter anymore, as the old and screechy temple door was opened.

Immediately in front of him, it appeared an extremely magnificent view of hills, mountains, rivers, waterfalls.

It seemed like behind that door lied ahead a new world, a world that even though was underground could shine brightly like there was nothing stopping the sunlight.

In fact, there was even a beautiful bluish sky, with a few white sugary clouds constellations, and even something comparable to the sun on one side.

That wasn't all there was to it, as on top of those hills and mountains there were a lot of beautiful buildings, courtyards, schools, and everything else that would make for a city underground.

The only absence in this great scenery was the lack of people, there was no one inside there. Despite the beauty, and the majesty of this place, there were no humans.

It was clear that all these buildings and everything else had been built by humans in this new world, but there was no sign of them like they had completely vanished in nothingness.

If it could be described in a few words, this place looked like an untouched heaven, created by humans, but with no humans inside.

Eric couldn't help but feel a torrent of emotions inside him, as he didn't expect to find such a place down here, but he wasn't able to think like that for long, as his instincts started alarming him.

He didn't understand what was going on, he just felt like he had fallen prey to a truly dangerous trap, and that he would die soon.

But he didn't understand, what kind of danger would come to him in such a heaven-like place, he couldn't help but doubt his senses and instincts for a moment.

As he thought that perhaps it was due to his tiredness, and the fact that he had been shot that he wasn't quite in form these days.

As Eric was thinking and feeling like that, Ren Jia came from behind him like a ghost-possessed person, and without caring about him in the least, made her way towards the entrance.

That clearly surprised Eric quite a bit as he didn't expect her to completely ignore him and walk forward like she had been possessed.

What was she doing? What was wrong with her?

But the moment these questions started appearing on his mind, he immediately felt like something had pricked his brain, as he was startled awake.

It was only at that moment that he was able to hear the warning sounds and warning messages of his Legacy System.

!!! Warning! The host is being influenced by a Soul Attack!

…

!!! Warning! The host is being influenced by a Soul Attack!

Host deemed unable to act properly!

Using 100 SP points to use Soul Barrier!

Active for 5 minutes!

It wasn't just one of them, there were more than 100 such warnings from his Legacy System, but since he was totally lost at that moment, he had no way of hearing them.

Seeing that last announcement where his Legacy System had spent 100 SP points without his permission made his heart bleed, but at the same time, those points weren't as valuable as his life.

If it weren't for this Legacy System working to save him out of the damned pain, then most probably he would have died without knowing how.

Now that his Legacy System had used that Soul Barrier thing, he could feel that something was trying to attack him but was instantly blocked.

But that wasn't all there was to it, as the heaven-like scenery in front of him had turned into a dark and dangerous-looking tunnel.

There was a daft smell of ancientness, and time in this place, but most importantly a putrid smell of blood, and rotten corpses.

But he didn't have much time to think at that moment, as Ren Jia was still inside the damned Soul Attack and was unable to make sense of what was in front of her.

Only now did Eric see how dangerous this thing was, as Ren Jia was walking happily towards a wall of sword and spears.

As long as she took two more steps those rusty swords and spearheads would definitely enter her body, and by the looks of it, she was walking towards them happily.

Now that he had turned her into his slave, Eric was clearly unwilling to let her walk towards her own death.

Not to mention, that he still hadn't had a taste of her, so how could he allow such a rare delicacy to die in front of him, without having a taste.

With those thoughts in might, he quickly made a jump forward and then extended one hand to pull her back.

It was unknown whether his action was willing or unwilling, but the hand that pulled Ren Jia backward was over her right melons.

As if that wasn't enough, by the time that he had pulled her towards himself, Eric even decided to have a nice squeeze out of it, completely awakening the lady from the stupor of the Soul Attack.

"Aahhh, what are you trying to do, you pervert?"

"I just saved your life! This is how you treat your Master and your savior!?"

Even though Eric was caught in the act, he still managed to keep a serious and solemn face as he said what he said, making Ren Jia clearly doubt her actions, and words at that moment.

Then she regained her senses and thought that she had been tricked by this young bastard in front of her, but looking where she was, and what was in front of her, she couldn't help but take a deep breath.

She was unable to understand what had just happened, after all, just a moment ago she was walking towards a human-made heaven, and the next moment she was in front of a wall of swords, and spearheads.

"Wha-what happened!?"

"You were under a Soul Attack, and were unable to distinguish reality from false, so you were willingly walking towards the wall in front of you.

I saved your life!"

Eric didn't say anything about him being affected by the Soul Attack too, as he wanted to build a strong figure in front of her.

Hearing that Ren Jia couldn't help but take a deep breath, the fact that Eric had saved her life was indeed true, so she felt a bit bad for having insulted him at that moment.

She was so flurried that she was unable to think that Eric could have done the same thing if he only pulled her hand from behind and didn't have to place his hand on her soft melon.

Still, she didn't forget to show manners, as she said with a slightly red face,

"Thank you!"
