Volume 7, Chapter 1 – Lust’s Ability

Lust.

Among the Seven Deadly Sins, excluding the other sins, the only one left was this final sin called Lust.

And Pride was on Lucifa. Tianyin had already figured out earlier how to obtain Pride from Lucifa without getting hurt… and the prerequisite for obtaining Pride, Lust, was the key.

And speaking of what Lust is…

For the last ability among her Seven Deadly Sins, Tianyin actually didn’t know what Lust’s ability was before. But after gaining control of Envy, because of Envy’s traits, Tianyin naturally saw the traits that the Lust on her body possessed.

Lust… was the body the System created at the very beginning. The body itself was materialized Lust. But the soul inside the body was Tianyin herself.

That’s right, these two were separate.

Lust was the body, but the soul’s essence was not Lust. So before, Tianyin would say that her body was Lust. Because there was nothing wrong with that statement.

And speaking of Lust’s ability… it was only at this moment that Tianyin belatedly understood Lust’s ability.

As the name implies, Lust was desire. And in a narrow sense, the definition of Lust tended toward a negative meaning.

But in reality, the Lust within Tianyin’s original sin was merely called Lust, and the “desire” contained within Lust wasn’t only the so-called narrow “lust”.

The desire within Lust actually included the seven emotions and six desires that people possess.

And Tianyin’s body, which was Lust itself… was actually able to invisibly amplify those desires in the hearts of the people around her. And it was precisely because of this… that so many people would end up walking together with Tianyin…

Yes.

From the very beginning, back in the Beginner Village… what Tianyin drew Xingyu Muxi with was actually not Tianyin’s pitiful, tiny, delicate appearance…

What drew Xingyu Muxi was Tianyin’s body that the System Light Orb molded, this body molded from Lust…

“So that’s how it is…”

Back in Eden, Tianyin locked herself alone in her room… bitterly recalling everything from before.

Right.

How could Sister Xiaomu, a player, possibly decide to help her selflessly just because she was cute. From the Beginner Village to Dawn being established… During that period, it was actually Tianyin taking unilaterally, and as the one being “squeezed” by Tianyin, Xingyu Muxi instead didn’t feel anything was wrong, and thought it was only natural…

But only now. After learning the truth, when Tianyin thought carefully, she suddenly realized how strange those things were.

Sister Xiaomu, who helped her selflessly, had already been influenced by Lust’s ability without realizing it from the moment she first saw Tianyin.

Logically, no matter how cute Tianyin was, a normal person might lend Tianyin a helping hand, but there was absolutely no way they would place Tianyin on the same level as family after only talking for a few dozen minutes…

But if Lust was secretly exerting influence, then everything made sense.

And if Tianyin’s reasoning was true, then… it wasn’t only Sister Xiaomu… Mengyao, Bingxue, Lucifa, and the catgirl Yeluo who threw herself into danger for her…

“Is this Lust? So everything… everything was only Lust’s hidden influence. Only now do I finally realize it…”

“It’s really… so… so fucking funny to me…”

Through Envy, Tianyin had already understood Lust’s ability more or less. And as she dug deeper into her understanding of Lust, the shock in Tianyin’s heart only grew stronger.

The reason Seles became so extreme and unreasonable after seeing Tianyin… also included the reason that Lust had amplified the dark desires in Seles’ heart.

The reason Lucifa felt that Tianyin’s embrace had that kind of mom-like feeling… was also only because when she got infinitely close to Tianyin, Lust infinitely amplified that trace of longing emotion Lucifa still held for her mother.

“So… was all of this because Lust made trouble?”

At the end of what she understood, there was only endless bitterness.

Without a doubt. Lust coming into the light declared that Tianyin had officially collected the Seven Deadly Sins. But… It was also because of Lust’s appearance that Tianyin began to doubt herself.

Everything… Everything felt like it had been set up in advance. Even the important family who gathered around her because of Tianyin’s own “charm”… those feelings were also the result of “Lust” invisibly amplifying them…

From the very beginning, the script had actually been set.

Whether it was the first encounter or obtaining the power of original sin. And then activating the power of original sin.

Everything… Everything had already been arranged with a corresponding script.

Or rather, from the very beginning, the System Light Orb had already set the so-called script. Only now did Tianyin finally see the System Light Orb’s sinister intentions clearly.

So, she was basically just the System Light Orb’s tool?

“But… since it went to so much trouble to create me… then why didn’t it personally go collect the power of original sin?”

Although Tianyin had guessed quite a lot in some places, she couldn’t figure out the System’s purpose.

Up to now, although the System really was using her, aside from getting stronger and stronger, Tianyin had no other effects at all.

“What is the System Light Orb’s purpose?”

As Tianyin thought about the System’s purpose, she naturally thought of Yunchou, who seemed to be a reincarnator.

Very clearly, Yunchou definitely knew something. Because judging by how the System repeatedly reminded her of Yunchou’s existence, and how dangerous Yunchou was… it was certain that Yunchou was someone the System was deeply wary of, someone it wanted to get rid of as soon as possible.

So, whatever it was that Yunchou knew, to the System, he was a major enemy. And maybe in the future, Yunchou could even ruin the System’s plan.

Then… perhaps it was precisely because the System had sensed Yunchou’s threatening nature that it descended repeatedly to look for her, hoping she would resolve the existence known as Yunchou.

“Then that means… Yunchou isn’t actually my enemy? The real enemy is the System?”

After reasoning to herself for a while, Tianyin’s imagination also grew more and more vivid.

Of course, these were only Tianyin’s guesses, and if she wanted to confirm this guess, Tianyin also had to, and must, meet Yunchou once.

And it was also at this moment that Tianyin, who had just been depressed because of Lust’s ability, had long forgotten that initial depressed feeling.

Because… Tianyin’s attention had completely shifted to the System’s conspiracy.

“So next, I have to go meet Yunchou… and if my reasoning is correct, then Yunchou definitely knows something. And the information Yunchou knows should be the key for me to see through all of the System’s arrangements.”

Translator Note

Oh my God!!! What a plot twist to start the volume…!

I had guessed one of them was a true villain, but I never expected that Lust’s ability would be something like that…

For Tianyin who just matured, knowing that all relationships she has built are actually fake… it must be unbearable…

I mean… bruh.. Over 500 chapters! And the MC just realized that her relationships are all fake?!

Okay maybe not fully fake because their emotions are true, but still, it counted as fake because of that desire amplifier ability… If there’s no amplifier like that, perhaps Xiaomu would never help Tianyin to this extent, even to the point of managing all Dawn affairs for free, or rather, she even paid all the resources to make Dawn grow at the beginning… Or, or perhaps… Dawn wouldn’t exist at all, because the Lord Token item itself was from Xiaomu in the first place, right?!

And without Dawn, Tianyin wouldn’t meet Yeluo and Lucifa because she has no reason to meet them… Or perhaps Tianyin wouldn’t even know their existence at all…
