Chapter 119 The Temple Floors
"Ants from Oath Keeper Clans, do you think you can hide from this Ruler?"
Just as Cyrus's voice trailed off, it created ripples and then waves among the masses. His revelation about the power system was the biggest show to every human present in the dimension.
As Cyrus stated, every human in the Regal world was following the magic system emplaced by the magic union. In contrast, the true background of that magic system originated from the Temple Dimensions.
For hundreds of years, they were all led to believe that humans' potential was only limited to the epic class rank. Afterward, they needed a dimension bloodline to further grow in power which can only be acquired from another dimension temple.
Because of this exact reason, the ten overseer clans hold absolute authority over the Regal World, and no human wants to offend them as long as they want to grow stronger and even live peacefully.
But now, Cyrus's revelation had shaken up the hundreds of years of the foundation built upon lies by the temple dimensions and the people's beliefs.
If they still don't believe Cyrus's words, they are starting to doubt the Ten Overseer Clans, nevertheless. Moreover, now that Cyrus had stated that he could even prove his point and he called the Oath Keeper Clan out, this could only mean he might be telling the truth.
Now everyone was waiting for the Oath Keeper Clan to come out and were even more curious about how they were dragged into this dimension which could also mean they were in the vicinity of Albert City today for some reason.
Three people who were hiding in the dense forest were the most alarmed than anyone else because these three were none other than the three members of the Oath Keeper Clan who had changed into normal clothes and gotten rid of their traditional outfits of the Oath Keeper Clan.
Two of them were short hair men. One was clad in blue, had a round face with a black beard, and looked quite fierce, while the other was a handsome man who appeared to be in his early thirties, had long blond hair, and wore full body armor. The third was a dainty woman in purple soft armor, showcasing her delicate figure.
"How did he know? Can he really see us?" The bearded man grimly questioned while looking at Cyrus's projection.
However, before the other could reply, Cyrus opened his mouth as his voice rang within their ears, "I can even hear you. As I said, I'm the Ruler of this place, and nothing can hide from me. Now, three ants from the Oath Keeper Clan, since you said yes with everyone else, I'll assume you want to be my loyal subjects.
"But as you are also the subjects of another Temple Dimension, you have to do more than just say simple words to be the natives of my dimension. I'll give you three ten minutes to reach the Temple, or I'll drag you there myself.
"As for all the humans who have pledged their loyalty to me, I invited you all to the temple where I'll show you all the true power of a Qi cultivator and prove that ten temples have spread nothing but lie.
"I'll also explain and bestow the Qi cultivation system to you all there and officially open the Origin Lust Sword Temple!
"As for the Goblins who submit to me, you all shall remain in your territories. I'll send a messenger to deal with your matters. Don't worry; humans will no longer hunt your kind as long as you won't provoke them!"
After his last word, the projection on the temple instantly vanished.
The three from the Oath Keeper Clan had this indescribable look on their faces as they looked at the spiral shape building, which Cyrus's projection was just a moment ago.
"W-what do we do?" The woman muttered in a horrid tone.
This was the first time these three were feared like this outside their temple dimension.
"Let's just go. We have no other choice. This dimension is not like ours at all. Not only that, but he might also be right about the lies of the other dimension temples. Don't forget, many had suspected this, but no one had ever dared to speak without evidence.
"Furthermore, our world was on the brink of destruction, and we were on the verge of extinction, so we had no choice but to follow the teaching of a dimension temple without any prior knowledge of what we were learning.
"If what he said is true, then I don't mind betraying the dimension temple who want to suppress us humans and instead to be the native of a dimension temple which is ruled by pure humans. It is the joy that only a human could understand." The blond hair man passionately spoke with a strange glint in his eyes.
The two seemed to be bewildered by his speech before their eyes widened, and a peculiar glint flashed past their eyes.
"Let's go. If he's telling the truth, then I also don't mind becoming the native and betraying our clan, which is built upon lies." The woman righteously stated.
The bearded man nodded in agreement before they all headed in the temple's direction.
Not just them but all the humans present in the dimension started to move toward the temple at top speed. No one obstructed anyone's way as they all now knew the Ruler could see and hear everything.
Since he invited them all and even hinted not to attack the goblins or they won't obstruct their way either so, why the hell would they obstruct each other's path?
What if they pissed off the Ruler?
So, like a civilized bunch, all the humans were moving toward the dimension temple.
Back inside the temple, Cyrus sat over the Ruler's Throne while he asked some questions about the system.
Lust Sword has been vanished from his hand since he needed this time to prepare and finalize the structure of his dimension in ten minutes, so Eve also understood this and didn't raise any objection as she would be back soon anyway.
"System, I need more information about the Temple Trials Floors and how they work and which kind of trials they will have, and how I can leave this place," Cyrus stated.
"[User can see more information about the floors by focusing on their columns, while you can enter any floor by simply thinking about its name. The same goes for exiting the temple, and you can appear anywhere in the dimension as long as you thought of the specific place as a matter of fact.]"
"Fair enough." Cyrus was pleased as he quickly opened the new panel and focused on the temple floor section, and as he focused on each floor column, new information appeared.
