Chapter 130: The World That Was Once Destroyed
Goodwill 90, but the attribute feedback was negligible, only five attribute points after rounding.
In other words, this Vivian with a suffix was actually a weakling.
An interesting perspective.
Kailun’s gaze passed through Hilna’s slender waist, meeting Vivian’s across the glass wall.
Due to their height difference, Vivian, who was squatting on the other side, had her head level with Hilna’s thighs.
This meant that when she looked up, she could see Hilna’s lower abdomen. It was a rather peculiar sight.
“Mmm~”
Hilna, unable to contain her excitement, leaned against the glass wall, gazing at her sister across from her. Her hot breath fogged up the smooth glass.
She skillfully bent over, pushing her hips out in a seductive pose.
Perhaps the heat within her was too intense, as she couldn’t resist sticking out her tongue and licking the fogged-up glass.
“Click!”
Kailun used the handcuffs he had snatched from Vivian to restrain Hilna’s hands, which were now bound behind her back.
“Are you still Vivian?” Kailun asked thoughtfully, while lifting Hilna’s skirt and maintaining eye contact with Vivian.
“Guess, my little doggy~”
Vivian smiled, revealing only one of her canines. Compared to before, her emotions were more subdued.
The Vivian in front of him had learned to restrain her feelings. She had become more mature.
Kailun grabbed Hilna’s hair and leaned forward, connecting with her mind. “Rather than playing guessing games with you, I’d rather bully your sister. After all, she’s your accomplice.”
“Instead of bullying my sister, who’s just an accomplice, why don’t you just bully me directly?”
Vivian propped her chin on her hand, her bright eyes fixed on Hilna’s lower abdomen.
Like a waterfall cascading down three thousand feet, or like the Milky Way falling from the sky, an indescribable beauty flowed into Vivian’s heart.
A buried regret was stirred within her, and Vivian said with a hint of envy, “Hey, won’t you let me join in on the fun?”
Kailun’s movements paused for a moment at her bold statement. “Why don’t you come over then?”
“Forget it, I don’t want to come over.”
Vivian looked down at her hand. She couldn’t fully control her current body and could only perform simple actions.
Based on her estimation, walking out of this room was already her limit.
“Just watching my sister being bullied, watching her being tormented until she can’t help herself, is enough to satisfy me,” Vivian said with a giggle.
“Don’t worry, I’ll bully you after I’m done with your sister.”
Kailun tightened his grip on Hilna’s hair, forcing her to tilt her head back for a more immersive experience.
He didn’t use the new spell. He planned to use it on Vivian.
Kailun lifted one of Hilna’s legs, satisfying Vivian’s request for close observation and learning.
This seminar across the glass wall lasted for nearly two hours. During this time, Kailun demonstrated and explained, laying a solid foundation, providing detailed instruction through action, and opening a new door for Vivian.
In just two hours, Kailun had made Hilna vomit blood from pain five or six times, so much so that the potion’s effect wore off significantly, and she regained a semblance of consciousness.
Tossing the limp Hilna back onto the bed, Kailun teleported to the next room.
“Now, can you introduce yourself?” Kailun asked calmly, his arms crossed, looking at Vivian.
Vivian stuck out her tongue playfully. “Of course I’m Vivian. Who else would I be?”
She stood up, supporting herself against the glass wall, her eyes fixed on Kailun. “If you just want to bully me, you don’t have to say so much. I’m standing right here. You can do whatever you want.”
Her frank attitude was a stark contrast to the Vivian from before. This familiar exchange made Kailun feel like he had returned to the past.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to talk. I don’t mind.”
Kailun shrugged. He was curious, but he didn’t necessarily need an answer.
Waving his fingers, Kailun cast an eighth-rank spell in the air.
The studious Kailun had made some modifications to Kailson’s spell, and it was now perfect for the stubborn Vivian in front of him.
“You have such an evil smile. I’ve changed my mind. I’m out of here~”
Vivian cautiously took a step back. Just as she was about to sever the mental connection, Kailun grabbed her shoulder and cast the spell on her.
Her stomach churned, and she felt like she was being emptied out.
It was a very unique sensation that Vivian had never experienced before.
But after witnessing the previous performance, she already had some guesses.
“I’ll call that guy out. You can bully her instead. This has nothing to do with me. You can’t blame me for this.”
Vivian panicked completely when Kailun pressed her against the glass wall.
She hadn’t done anything wrong. Why should she take the blame?
She was indignant. She only had a sliver of consciousness left, and now she had to suffer this bullying.
In the past, it would have been her whipping Kailun, feeding him like a dog, and even satisfying his desires would depend on her mood.
At first, Vivian had a haughty look in her eyes, but now she understood her situation.
After probing Vivian’s memories, she understood how this situation came about.
It was too unbelievable, a possibility she hadn’t even anticipated.
She hadn’t expected to exist in this state, and she hadn’t expected all her attempts to become reality.
“Hiss~”
Vivian’s contemplation didn’t last long. Soon, the pain made her gasp.
She turned her head and glared at Kailun. “Can’t you be gentler? I’m so small, don’t you know how to be tender with a delicate flower?”
“Sorry, I don’t have such worldly thoughts.”
As he spoke, Kailun grabbed Vivian’s twin tails.
……
“That’s strange. Why does my bottom hurt so much? Did something happen while I was asleep?”
At ten o’clock in the evening, Vivian left the underground prison with Kailun.
When she woke up, she was lying on the ground, her clothes intact, as if she had suddenly fainted, with no memory of what had happened in between.
If she wasn’t sure that she was still a virgin, she would have suspected that Kailun had done something to her secretly.
“Maybe the floor was too hard, and you slept for too long.”
Kailun casually replied, walking ahead. He had basically confirmed that the Vivian just now was a part of her consciousness from his past life, somehow residing in the current Vivian’s soul.
But her memories were incomplete. Kailun couldn’t even learn from her what would happen in the future.
Judging from her behavior, his rebirth didn’t seem to be a coincidence. Fox, Isabella, and Carol all played important roles in it.
Kailun couldn’t help but think of the word “fate”.
“Really?” Vivian rubbed her bottom. She felt strange, a sense of clarity she couldn’t describe.
Kailun: “Of course, if it weren’t for bullying your sister, you would have been bullied severely by now.”
Vivian: “Oh, that’s a pity.”
Kailun: “…”
Hearing Vivian’s comment, Kailun stopped walking.
“What’s wrong? Why did you stop?” Vivian bumped into Kailun’s back and rubbed her head in confusion.
“I guess I still have to teach you a lesson, or I won’t feel at ease.”
Feeling relaxed, Kailun decided to lock Vivian back up, making her Hilna’s neighbor.
He grabbed Vivian’s wrist and dragged her back.
Vivian’s eyes widened. “Hey hey hey, you’re not going to lock me back up, are you? How can you be so heartless?”
Kailun: “When you become as obedient as Winnie, I’ll let you out.”
Vivian: “???”
“See you tomorrow, my princess.”
Tossing Vivian into the room where Winnie had stayed, Kailun closed the door and left the prison.
What to do with a mischievous princess?
Lock her up for a few days.
If a few days weren’t enough, add some spanking as punishment.
Leaving the underground prison, Kailun didn’t go back to his bedroom to sleep.
He knocked on the study door and sat down next to Ella, taking out the two parchment scrolls from his pocket. Kailun began to study them silently.
The appearance of Vivian (Illusion) had presented Kailun with a new possibility. He needed to find the root cause of everything.
His intuition told him that the scrolls in his hands were very important.
Ella occasionally glanced at Kailun, but after half an hour, she quietly focused on her own work.
Carol refilled Kailun’s tea twice during this time.
After putting all his attribute points into Spirit, Kailun concentrated on analyzing the magic circles.
The scrolls in front of him were part of a massive magic circle. The ingenious part was that they could exist independently and achieve specific effects.
Kailun didn’t know the specific effects yet, but the dense magic circuits already indicated their complexity.
Just from the structure of the magic circles, this was definitely not something the Xiya Kingdom could possess.
The parchment scrolls in his hands were at least several thousand years old. Rubbing them with his fingertips, Kailun could feel their ancient texture.
They differed from the current magic theory, making Kailun’s research progress slow.
His knowledge of ninth-rank magic was practically non-existent.
That was why he had asked the Abyss and Isabella for ninth-rank magic books. He urgently needed to fill his knowledge gap.
Kailun planned to burn the midnight oil tonight, hoping to gain some insights from a night of research.
…..
As the stars shifted in the sky, Vivian, leaning against the wall, couldn’t fall asleep.
She had never imagined that she would end up in the same situation as Winnie.
Living in a dirty, dark, and gloomy prison, eating black hard bread, and even going to the toilet was a hassle.
“Hey, Hilna over there, are you asleep? Wake up!”
Unable to sleep, Vivian called out Hilna’s name, hoping to wake up her naked sister.
After several minutes of noise, Hilna finally woke up from her slumber, but she didn’t answer Vivian immediately.
“I actually signed a slave contract… I’m doomed…”
The memories of the night flooded back, and Hilna couldn’t help but burst into tears.
She had almost succeeded, but she had lost her last chance.
Becoming Kailun’s slave meant she had lost her last opportunity to turn things around. Even if she found Kailun’s weakness, she couldn’t change anything anymore.
Their fates were now intertwined. She even had to consider Kailun’s safety and interests.
“It’s all your fault. If you hadn’t begged me for the potion, I wouldn’t have ended up like this. You stupid sister deserve to be locked up!”
Hilna sat up on the bed, tears streaming down her face.
Vivian: “The little doggy dares to bark at her master? You better think carefully, sister.”
Hilna wrapped her delicate body in the blanket and looked at Vivian. “Little dog, huh? You’re not even as good as a little dog now. What’s there to be proud of, living in a prison even worse than mine?”
Giving up all hope, Hilna even started to talk back to Vivian.
When she still had hope, she could tolerate Vivian’s arrogance, but now, there was no need for tolerance.
Hilna wrapped herself in the blanket, jumped off the large bed, stepped onto the soft carpet, and walked to the glass wall. She glanced at the room across from her. “I didn’t expect that even you, who have always been favored, would fall to such a state. It’s truly satisfying. That room must be very comfortable, covered in dust, without even a place to sleep. If you want to use the toilet, you can only do it in front of me, stepping on that rickety wooden board. If you’re not careful, you might even fall in…”
Hilna’s words were like daggers, piercing Vivian’s heart with every sentence.
“Not only that, since Kailun chose to lock you up, it means he wants to teach you a good lesson. You can expect your miserable days to just be beginning.”
Hilna rubbed her swollen lower abdomen. The feeling of fullness made her uncomfortable.
“Hmph!” Vivian snorted coldly, feeling uneasy.
“Just you wait. Kailun will keep bullying you. You’re the one he finds more worthy of bullying.”
Hilna: “Let’s wait and see. His patience with you has reached its limit. If I hadn’t taken most of the blame for you today, you probably wouldn’t even be able to get out of bed now.”
Vivian: “This is pointless. Tell me, did anything strange happen at night? Or did I do anything strange?”
“You don’t know?” Hilna’s face was full of surprise.
Vivian shook her head. Her intuition told her that she hadn’t simply fainted. Something special must have happened during that time.
Hilna recalled Vivian’s strange behavior earlier and a knowing smile curved her lips.
She didn’t tell Vivian what she knew. She just wanted to see Vivian being bullied.
If Vivian ended up worse off than her, she would be very happy.
Looking up at the bright magic lamp overhead, Hilna suddenly missed Shirley.
She hadn’t seen that idiot for a long time. She wondered if she was still alive.
……
“After researching all night, I could only vaguely discern traces of fate. I’m still far from fully understanding it.”
Rubbing his stiff neck, Kailun stood up and stretched.
Tucking the scrolls into his sleeve, Kailun found a blanket and covered the sleeping Ella with it.
He went to the dining hall and had Carol prepare a simple breakfast for him. After eating, Kailun left the manor.
He took a carriage ride around the Royal City with Carol, making sure there were no major issues. Then he wrote a magic letter, asking Dean Edlin to return to the Royal City as soon as possible.
She had only exchanged 2.5 million gold coins for magic crystals, and she still had 2.5 million left.
Kailun didn’t want her to continue being a fool. The price of magic crystals was already ridiculously high. If she kept buying, she would truly lose everything.
But even so, Edlin still owed Kailun 500,000 gold coins, a debt she couldn’t repay even if she sold herself.
Carol, dressed in a maid outfit, held a basket of magic crystals in one hand, absorbing them, while flipping through a seventh-rank magic book with the other.
Although her strength hadn’t broken through to the sixth rank, her knowledge reserves had already surpassed the sixth rank and reached the seventh.
“Carol, what do you think the world was originally like? Do you think this world might have been destroyed once before?”
Kailun stroked Carol’s soft hair, looking at the scenery outside the window. His gaze didn’t linger on her.
“I don’t know. I’ve read some Taboo Scrolls, but they only go back to the War of Ten Thousand Races. The history before that is a blank slate, so I don’t know if the world has been destroyed before.”
Carol put aside the magic crystal she had absorbed and picked up a new one, starting to absorb it.
The so-called War of Ten Thousand Races was a war that had taken place nearly ten thousand years ago. At that time, the human race was unprecedentedly powerful and became the dominant force in the world.
For various reasons, the human race, as the strongest force, launched a war, driving the other races into retreat. They were forced to form an alliance to resist.
But the other races had missed the best opportunity. They were defeated repeatedly and eventually driven underground, becoming the Abyss.
Many details of that war were missing. Later generations didn’t know why the human race didn’t press their advantage after destroying thousands of other races.
According to relevant records, battle mages were prevalent in that era. People liked to engrave magic circles on their bodies, and their strength was unprecedentedly powerful.
But even now, battle mages had been proven to be a wrong path, even though they were considered a top-tier profession among ninth-rank mages.
Overall, the inheritance of battle mages had been lost over time.
Kailun shook his head. “I mean, is it possible that the world has already been destroyed, and it will happen again in three years?”
Carol: “???”
To her, Kailun’s question was clearly a contradiction. How could a destruction that happened in three years be considered a past destruction?
“I…”
Carol opened her mouth, wanting to point out the logical error in Kailun’s words, but she couldn’t utter a single word.
Kailun turned to look at Carol and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
He touched Carol’s forehead and checked her physical condition, but found nothing unusual.
“It’s nothing. Maybe I had a nightmare last night and didn’t sleep well.” Carol shook her head, dismissing the feeling.
“If you’re afraid of having nightmares, come find me. I’ll squeeze Hilna out and make room for you.”
Kailun smiled and pinched Carol’s soft cheek.
She laughed happily. “Okay. But where are we going now?”
Kailun: “To a place where we can make a fortune: the Mental Potion factory.”
The so-called Mental Potion was actually just water with a drop of holy water added.
It would be the flagship product of the Balance Chamber of Commerce, sold to wealthy and intelligent people. It could provide a massive amount of mental power in a short period of time. Kailson and Bruce had both experienced its effects.
