Chapter 8: First Lustful Sin
Clutching her neck just tight enough so that the smallest of oxygen could pass through her throat, Blake kept the woman alive and though he truly wanted to end her, the existence of Felix was a huge deterrence to him.
Taking a minute to recollect his thoughts and the condition of his body, Blade opened his eyes and released the woman, watching as she backed away from him in fear and then ran out of the carriage they were in.
"I guess this is how we escaped" Blake thought taking in the carriage's fancy decoration and couch to both sides before then standing and also existing the carriage.
Stepping outside, Blake shivered a little as he was hit by a cold breeze and the darkness of the night and then he turned to the two people who were beside a fire, Felix sitting and resting his back on a tree while the dark-haired woman who could scream a man to death went ranting to him about what he had done.
Sighing internally, Blake approached the two and ignoring the hateful glare which was being thrown his way by the woman, he squatted in front of Felix and looked at him with worry,
"Are you okay old man"
"Who are you calling old you damn brat," Felix said with a chuckle lifting his hand and patting Blake on the shoulders, his lips carrying a smile while his eyes were filled with sadness.
"Your actions today really impressed me Blake" Felix said, nodding his head weakly
His expression going somber, Blake also placed a hand on Felix's shoulders and gave it a light squeeze.
"Is it an injury?" Blake asked his gaze running up and down the man's body, inspecting the several areas that were covered in blood.
"Na it's poison, those guys got me good but it seemed you some how escaped," Felix said shaking his head and then with a grunt he placed his hands on the ground and then pushed himself to his feet.
"Kneel Blake." The man suddenly said and then though Blake wanted to refuse and become defensive, he decided to trust the memories of this body he had inhabited and warily did as the man said.
Nodded his head as Blake knelt, Felix lifted his sword which was to the side and while holding onto its handle inserted it in front of him.
"Blake Luxander, right from the day I first met you, you have been an upright man, a gentleman amongst gentlemen, a man of discipline and today you have proven yourself a man of bravery and courage.
Tell me Blake Luxander, do you swear to stand for justice at all times, to defend it whenever necessary and to live by it till the day you die."
"Ehh system do I have to be worried about these oaths" Blake hurriedly asked.
[No]
"I swear" Blake firmly replied.
"Blake Luxander do you swear to defend the country of Aramia from outside and inside threats to the best of your abilities, even if it costs you your life."
"I swear"
"Blake Luxander, do you swear to protect Lena Moria, to defend her from all forms of attack and to guide her towards the light till your last breath"
"I swear"
"Then I Richard Felix a second order knight by the authority bestowed on by the king himself anoint you Blake Luxander a knight, may the sun god be with you."
Speaking his last words, Felix suddenly began glowing a bright golden color and then the man lifted his sword and tapped it on both of Felix's shoulders and then kneeling down so he was eyeball to eyeball with Blake, he offered his sword to him and when Blake took it, the old man spoke.
"I expect great things from you my child" Felix said and while Blake was still thinking of what to reply, the man fell to the side.
"Hmm is he dead" Blake wondered as he stared at the fallen knight, watching as Lena rushed to his side and began shaking his body while screaming his name.
Getting up to his feet, Blake looked at the slightly heavy blade he had been handed but before could admire the craftsmanship on his handle several system messages popped up.
[Ding! congratulations you have been knighted]
[Ding! congratulations you have received the ability, Sun cloak]
[This is a reminder to the host that he needs sin points to get stronger and that to get those sin points, he needs to commit lustful sins]
The three-message notifications had Blake's curiosity peaked but then Lena's wails began reaching Blake's ears and he couldn't help but wince.
"Damn it why did Felix have to remind me of this witch's name" Blake groaned within and he had just turned to shut her up when he found her kneeling over Felix, still shaking his most likely dead body while presenting her large shapely round ass to him.
Now in normal times, Blake would have easily ignored this image but then the system's last message came to mind and he remembered how he had nearly died in his earlier battle.
[Lust aura]
[Sweet touch]
Thinking of the systems advice, Blake activated these abilities and quickly opened his system status.

[The host is currently low on sin points, please commit a lustful sin.]
Looking at his status, a lot of questions popped into Blake's mind but before he could satisfy his curiosity a gentle voice called out his name.
"Blake, Felix is dead, I feel sad," Lena said looking at Blake while rubbing her exposed arms.
Looking at her, though Blake realised that it was definitely the lust aura that was making her so gentle, he wanted to ignore her and focus back on the system but then he remembered how many sin points he had, the danger that surrounded him and in an instance the look of irritation that had been on his face melted away and he called Lena over.
Watching her walk to him, Blake's eyes roamed over her figure and he couldn't help but appreciate her slim waist and the sway which it gave her hips.
When Lena came close, Blake reached out and placing his hand around the woman's waist pulled her to him so her body pressed against his and then his hands went to her rear.
"Blake what are you doing" Lena asked looking up at him in confusion and lightly pushing against him.
"Now what exactly is a lustful sin" Blake wondered in his mind, ignoring Lena's complaint and squeezing her buttocks, his brows raising at their surprising softness.
