Cyrus performed the eighth move as he thrusts his sword vertically at his waist height, and the skeleton's entire rib frame shattered.

Cyrus was abruptly stopped when he found there was no more skeleton left and sighed regretfully.

"This method of training is way more effective since I won't be tired at all as long as I kill my targets." He muttered under his breath before he heard the system's notification.

'Still quite far from the ten thousand mark.' Cyrus chuckled, not worried at all because he knew this was just the start.

After getting his energy replenished, he started to practice again under Eve's guidance.

This time, two hours passed without any attack, and Cyrus was completely soaked in sweat. But the happiness in his eyes couldn't be more apparent.

"Congratulation on finally reaching the initial level." Eve's crisp voice sounded in his head. She was gratified seeing Cyrus was working so hard and didn't give up until he reached the goal he set up for himself.

This motivates her even more, and she starts to become a really strict teacher.

At this moment, Cyrus's ears perked when he heard movement, and his lips curled up and looked behind.

The nob of the closed bedroom door twisted, and the door pushed open, revealing Rita in her blue shirt and white skirt. She was more radiant than a few hours ago, and her figure was more curvaceous and suppler.

Furthermore, she was giving off this strange enticing aura as anyone would feel attracted to her, and her charming smile was nothing but seductive.

Cyrus looked at alluring Rita and smilingly said, "Meridians Tempering 11th Stage, no bad, I guess. I was worth waiting for."

Rita smiled winded, "It's all thanks to for 'filling me up.'" She licked her lips seductively with her pink tongue.

"This whore!" Eve cursed in indignant when she observed Rita's bold behavior.

"Don't get angry. You'll only burn yourself for nothing. This is the effect of the Devil's Spouse Technique, and she has already accepted her inner lust. This is just the start of her transformation." Cyrus explained it to Eve.

"I forbid you to spread this technique anymore!" Eve gritted her teeth, clearly not happy.

Cyrus rejected it without hesitation, "You know it's impossible. I need LXP, and Devil's Spouse is the best technique for it, and I have full control over it. So, stop being a child."

Cyrus then ignored Eve's antics and complaints and nodded at Rita meaningfully, "I'm glad you liked it. Tell me, are you feeling discomfort in the soul winds like before?"

Rita thought for a moment before shaking her head, "No, I'm just feeling somewhat cold, like in mild winter. But no longer freezing like before."

"That's good. The Yin Qi will continue to empower your body, and you'll get complete immunity to the Bronze level of Underworld soul winds at Foundation Building Realm." Said Cyrus with some uncertainty.

"Just what is going on?" Rita's expression turned solemn as she had no idea what was happening, and she only knew it had something to do with that strange phenomenon.

She will never forget almost dying by freezing, no, that feeling even worse than freezing.

Cyrus didn't plan to hide anything as he told her about the Dimension and its origin while he omitted the details about how he got to know about it.

Rita was shocked when she found that they were now stuck in a Dimension, and this dimension was also related to the Undead, which made her pale in fright.

But she still manages to regain her calm because Cyrus is also not panicking, and this is enough to give her courage.

"I never thought I would enter the famous Dimension one day. I always dreamt about it when I heard the story from my mother about how the Dimensions changed our society. But I never thought it would turn into a nightmare." Rita smiled wryly.

Cyrus's eyes shimmered as he remembered Rita wasn't a BOD but an Ordinary. He questioned, "What do you know about Dimensions?"

Rita thought for a moment before she replied, "My Grandfather was part of the first generation of the Slum District, and he was the only one who left alive from the first generation in our family.

"But he never talked about the world outside despite asking him many times. He only told stories to his children about how magical the dimensions were and how many benefits they brought to humanity as a whole.

"I also heard these types of stories from my mother. But after hearing your explanation, it's quite clear they were just fabricated lies. Besides, if it had benefited them so much, they would never through us in this shithole like some prisoners." A hint of murderous intent surfaced in Rita's eyes.

Cyrus also didn't push the topic since he knew Rita didn't have a good childhood either, and this kind of secret won't be disclosed to someone like her.

"Don't worry. We'll find out once we exit this place. These Dimensions are quite intriguing, and you're not a helpless little girl anymore, either. When you become strong enough, just charm those guys, and they will be at your beck and call." He said matter-of-factly with an icy tone.

The sadness in her eyes instantly vanished when she heard those words, as she also knew it was possible as long as she followed Cyrus and kept getting stronger.

"I will definitely make sure those guys regret their choice!" She coldly stated.

Cyrus was content with her current attitude, "Alright, we waste enough time. We need to find the core of this dimension, and we shall start by searching the estate of those Rank-5 officers and Rank-6 officers before looking elsewhere.

"As long as we hold this key to retreat any time we want, we will be safe and even use this place as a practice ground."

Rita's eyes lit up when she heard this plan before she asked with uncertainty, "Can I charm those undead?"

Cyrus was surprised by her question before he smiled, "Charm can only work on someone with consciousness and desire. It might seem that the Undead Race didn't have consciousness or desire because they were 'dead.'

"But it's the opposite, actually. The Undead also have desires like livings, and all the dead are not turned out to be part of the Undead Race either. The Undead Race is born from pure darkness and the presence of death Qi which is ample in the true Underworld. The Soul Winds of the Underworld also originated from the Death Qi.

"In our case, we are currently dealing with the Skeleton Race, but it is not a natural-born skeleton race as the soul winds have turned the weak living into the weakest form of the skeleton race, and they are growing as well.

"If I'm not wrong, then we are only dealing with skeletons because this Dimension name is also Skeleton Grotto, or the living tuning is always random, and they can turn into all kinds of abominations.

"Anyhow, your charm will work on those skeletons since they all have the desire to become stronger and stronger." Cyrus patiently explained to Rita and Eve.

The Undead Race was quite mysterious as long as you're not a God, and Cyrus has some ties with the Undead Race in his past life, and that's how he got the chance to enter the Underworld as well.

​ Rita sighed in relief when she heard her only learned spell was still useful.

Cyrus's lips curled up, and said, "Don't feel relief so soon. Although you can charm them, it doesn't mean you are capable of charming them right now.

"With your current strength, you can barely charm a single skeleton at body Qi tempering realm and three at Qi gathering. Never think of them as mortals of the slums."

"Then what should I do?" Rita grimaced.

"I'll teach you three yellow-grade spells first. When you master them, I'll impart more spells. You are still quite far from using Yin Spells, and they will just exhaust you even if you learn them.

"So, I'll teach Ice-Element related spells, which are also the starting line of learning the nature of Yin and its foundation. Now listen carefully; the three spells are Ice Bullet, Ice Shield, and Ice Spikes…"

Cyrus didn't waste time and started to teach Rita about the three Ice spells and their activation sequences. She just needed to turn her Qi into ice Qi which was child's play for someone with Yin Qi.

Furthermore, since she was using Ice element spells, the Qi usage will also turn into a minimum. This was the advantage of having superior Qi than normal element Qi.

Since Rita had already learned the Golden Grade Spell before, these three Yellow Grade Spells seemed very simple. In an hour, she was already started to use them.

However, their focus broke when hurried footsteps rang from the entrance.

Cyrus looked at startled Rita and smirked, "Let's see what you got!"
