Lust System in the Murim World

The blood inside the assassin suddenly turned into flames. His veins started blocking the flames until a few seconds later, he exploded.

The explosion burned his body from the inside.

He died.

But, more importantly, Kim and Hinata were still next to him. When the explosion occurred, Kim instantly reacted.

He didn't know why he reacted this way.

If it was before, he would've never reacted this way.

He valued his life more than anything else. But, at this moment, he used his own body to cover her.

If he could've jumped away, he could've escaped the explosion even if it was by a little.

But, a strange thing happened inside of him.

A strong sense of protecting this woman.

It wasn't for the quest. The moment explosion occurred, his mind literally gave up on the quest.

But, he still moved.

His body still moved to cover the princess. He didn't understand why his body moved at first.

Only when the explosion struck him, he realized something.

Pride!

It was his pride.

This was a different kind of pride than before. Before his pride was stopping him from accepting others' help.

This kind of pride forced him to live alone.

He realized that no matter what happened, he would never depend on others. Because he had a problem. This problem would one day cause him trouble.

And, his relationship would definitely shatter. So, he decided to leave on his own. After that, he never decided on going back.

Because his pride wouldn't let him.

After coming to this world, he found that this pride had shattered. He no longer had this kind of pride.

Instead, the reason why he protected this woman was because of his pride as a man.

He was a man.

How could he let a woman he was supposed to save die in front of his eyes?

In his inner mind, if he let her die in front of his eyes, his self-esteem, pride, and belief will shatter.

Although he had no idea why was this happening, he couldn't stop it.

This pride was dangerous. Previously, he helped him form a proper mentality in front of the woman.

But right now, it dragged him down. The pride to protect the woman forced him to bear the entire explosion.

Before he could curse his pride, his eyes slowly closed and he lost his consciousness. At this moment, he didn't see a system panel in front of him.

.......

Under the shadow of a rock, Kim slowly opened his eyes. He stared at the rock and suddenly, remembered his situation.

He instantly tried to raise his upper body.

"Ahh!"

Only then did he realize that his back hurts.

"Don't move! You are injured." A girl's voice rang next to him.

Kim slowly turned his head and saw the girl sitting next to him, in front of a fire. There was a small rabbit above the fire, slowly being roasted.

He looked at the girl. When he saw her, there was a strange expression on his face. Normally, Asura Race was known for its devil-like appearance.

The black wings on their back, the horns on their heads, the scales on her body. It wouldn't be the appearance that would actually attract humans.

So, the game made some changes. Instead of giving this kind of appearance to Asura, they were given a human-like appearance.

A normal skin, no horns or wings, no big feet or tongue longer than snakes.

So, the girl in front of him had quite a beautiful appearance. Her skin looked extremely smooth and dark. Her upper body and lower body were developed perfectly.

Her lips looked smooth and silky like cherry. Her eyes were extremely bright, especially with purple pupils.

Her hair was also purple and she wore a normal orange t-shirt and black pants.

She deserved to have the appearance of the princess of the Asura Race. It wasn't cute or pale like Yeosho or Neyol.

But, it was mature and extremely alluring.

Even though Kim had seen Neyol and Yeosho naked, he still couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed by her.

She was wearing clothes but his mind had already made her naked appearance in his head. So, when he saw her body, his lust started developing.

So, he quickly looked away.

He still had no idea how to deal with his lust.

Originally, his Chad Energy would suppress his lust but because of her sexy and mature vibe, he couldn't bring himself to suppress that lust.

Hinata was surprised when he looked away. She knew he was looking at her appearance and she didn't mind that.

Instead, she felt proud.

She was a princess and her appearance could make a person shy away, it was good for her.

But, the reason why she felt proud was because of his identity.

He was her savior.

If he hadn't arrived in time, she would've died.

She didn't know why he helped her especially knowing that he was a human.

But, to protect her instead of running away from that explosion deeply moved her heart.

Of course, she still doubted his motives. She didn't let her fall like a nympho. Instead, she took a deep breath and asked.

"Why did you save me? If you had run away, you could've saved yourself."

When she questioned him, Kim turned his head and looked at her. Suddenly, his lust was suppressed to its bottom.

His eyes turned serious, making her heart beat faster.

"Does a man need a reason to save a woman?"

When he asked that question, Hinata paused for a moment. She was shocked.

Her mind couldn't handle his answer or rather a question for a moment.

Although women do have inherently less advantage over men in martial arts, it didn't mean they were weak.

There were several women who were stronger than most men.

And, in the scene of danger, most of the men wouldn't hesitate even a little to care about others, much less a person whom they didn't even know.

That's why her gaze slowly changed. From shock to pity. She couldn't believe Kim saved her for such a stupid reason.

Of course, Kim didn't care about her expression.

If he was given a choice, he wouldn't have saved her in the situation. Although there would some kind of problem in the future, there was no need to put his life on the line.

But, he couldn't blame himself either. After all, he was a coward, a loser, and lonely before. He had changed now.

So, even though he put his life on the line, he didn't feel too bad about it.

"Thank you for saving me! I will definitely return this favor one day." Although Hinata had pity in her eyes, she quickly changed her expression and bowed her head.

After all, if it wasn't for him, she would've died.

Someone put his life on the line to save her. How could she simply ignore it?

"I do expect that from Asura Kingdom Princess." Kim nodded his head and answered.

"So, you knew about my identity?" Hinata looked at him with surprise.

"Of course! Do you think those two were the only ones who came after you? I killed the other three before meeting you."

"But, I am more surprised that the Princess of Asura Kingdom would run away from her home." Kim looked at her with a curious gaze.

Actually, he knew the reason behind her escape but he had to act curious about it.

"I have my problems." Hinata didn't answer his curiosity but instead asked.

"Did you save me for the favor of the Princess of Asura Kingdom?"

When she asked that, there was some disappointment in her eyes.

"Of course not! I save a princess running away from the assassins. I did what a normal man would do. But, of course, I didn't expect the last attack." Kim smiled and replied.

He tried to make sure that his answer would be as perfect as it should be. Not too perfect otherwise it would be suspicious.

"Ohh, yeah! You shouldn't be familiar with Dark Blood Faction. After all, it normally operates inside the Asura Kingdom. Their final card, also known as a Blood Explosion is very famous in the Asura Kingdom."

"That's why very few people try to get on their bad sides." Hinata nodded her head and answered.

"No wonder! Anyway, how long did I pass out?" Kim was worried about Yeosho and Neyol. After all, even if Yeosho didn't come searching for him, Neyol could.

"I had a Healing Paste when I ran away from the Asura Kingdom. So, you only passed out for Five Hours." Hinata replied.

Hearing her words, Kim was relieved. He slowly turned around and looked at his back.

He couldn't completely see it but most of the burn on his back had disappeared.

Except for some deep burn that reached his muscle, most of it was already healed.

"You are still injured. I have the remaining healing paste. Lie down, I will put it on your back." Hinata said as she took out a healing paste. At the same time, she rotated the meat over the fire.
