Isaac was still looking at the lake. He didn't shift his gaze at the text that appeared. When he turned his head around, there was some kind of invisible string pulling his gaze back to the lake.
''Strange…'' Soon, he noticed the lake's reflection changing. It didn't show the cavern's ceiling anymore.
Instead, a luxurious room. The room was beautiful, with a large bed in the middle.
The bed was covered in a red blanket and shrouded in red curtains.
The draped curtains opened. Under the blanket was a sign of movement. Then, a soft and silky leg was exposed.
The blanket moved out of the way enough for the whole leg to be visible. All the way from toes to the thighs.
They were alluring, enough to unleash man's hidden desires. Isaac's eyes widened slowly.
The blanket shuffled, and soon, a head emerged. It belonged to a woman. The face was heart-shaped, and the eyebrows were silky and long. She slowly sat up in the bed, the blanket covering her naked figure.
The blanket tightly hugged her body, outlining every inch of her body. But, her body proportions were invisible to be hidden. The blanket outlined two heavy-looking mounds, and two pointy nipples were the most noticeable ones.
The woman herself was incredibly beautiful. Her silky black hair reached the bed, and her long eyelashes and pointy nose were a sight to behold. Her smooth and soothing skin was enough to treat as a natural treasure.
The blanket moved enough out of the way that most of her body was still hidden, but that only made everyone more curious to find out what was hidden beneath. Only her wide hips and soft-looking thighs were visible. Her bright, ocean-like blue eyes were seen every time her eyes opened after a blink.
She slowly lifted her smooth arm. The arm was like made from jade, extremely delicate and untainted by mortal hands. She extended her long index finger and motioned for Isaac to come closer.
Her mouth was curved into a pleasant smile. She looked both seductive and innocent at the same time.
Isaac leaned closer to the lake. However, when his nose was about to touch the surface. He woke up from his stupor and pulled his head back.
The beautiful woman sighed in disappointment. Like she was just rejected by her crush.
Soon, the reflection changed.
The bedroom and beautiful woman disappeared.
''What the hell was that?'' Isaac felt cold sweat pouring down on his back. He felt very tempted to dip into the lake. However, managed to grab himself from the collar and pull out of the temptation.
Then, the lake's reflection changed. This time, the lake showed an athletic man with beautiful white hair.
The man turned halfway, just enough for Isaac to see his face. The face was otherworldly. The body structure was perfected and was every woman's wet dream.
The way the athletic man moved was like the world resounded around him. Isaac had to admit that he hadn't seen anyone as handsome as the man in the reflection.
White hair, white eyelashes, and gray eyes. They resembled a certain someone, but Isaac would never think it was him in the reflection.
While he was skinny and seemingly unathletic. The man in the reflection was the polar opposite. He was draped in white robes. That didn't reduce his attractiveness, instead made him look more mysterious and powerful.
If the woman of the previous lake was a dream of any man. The man would be the dream of any woman.
Unlike the woman, the man opened his mouth and spoke, ''Do you want strength?''
''Strength…'' Isaac repeated after him. His body slowly inching closer to the lake.
''Dive into the lake… You will become stronger than anyone. You can get everything.'' p.a.n.d.a n.o.v.e.l
''Women… Money… Fame…''
''Eh?'' Isaac's body stopped. He repeated the words in his mind several times. The handsome man's words echoed in his ears.
Isaac pulled his head back slowly. The handsome man's face became emotionless as he witnessed his weaker version backing out.
The reflection changed. The handsome man disappeared into ripples.
''Haahh…'' Isaac sat down on the stony ground. His body was drenched in sweat. Money… Women… Fame… Strength… The thought of receiving them all was rather tempting. Isaac would be lying if he didn't feel tempted.
He has money. Fame was never his goal. Isaac managed to counter every temptation, but strength was the one that almost tipped him over the edge. However, managed to fight back.
Then, there were the women. Images surfaced in his mind, which showed him being surrounded by women, equally as beautiful as the woman in the reflection.
''This is strange… Why did I think about her?'' Isaac glanced at his trembling hand. He turned it around until the palm was facing him. Then, he turned it around and looked at the back of his hand.
The trembling wasn't stopping. His heart was erratic. His cheeks flushed, painted on a hue of pink.
''Strange… I have only felt like this once…'' Isaac brushed the strands of hair to the side and knelt on the ground. Then, he stood up to stand.
In the reflection, another image showed. A beautiful black-haired girl with an innocent smile on her face. Her body was draped in witch's robes. She wasn't as beautiful as the women showed in the reflection. But, she had a different kind of aura around her.
An aura that attracted Isaac like a moth to the flame.
He slowly knelt down. His breath gone rough. His cheeks flushed and forehead drenched in sweat.
Isaac extended his hand, the tip of his finger almost touching the surface. In front of his finger was the beautiful young woman's smiling face. Her eyes were curved to add more allure to her looks.
Then, he clenched his fist, and the reflection disappeared. Instantly, another reflection appeared. It showed the ceiling of the cavern.
Ding! Ding!
[Congratulations, Player Wraith!]
[Test of Temptation Completed!]
[1/3]
''Whew…'' Isaac saw that two tests were remaining. The first test alone put him on the edge of failure. He stayed in the kneeling position for several minutes.
Creak!
A stone door opened. A similar scratching mark appeared on the stone ground. However, Isaac wasn't moving.
''Yeah…'' Isaac came to a conclusion. He touched his chest and felt his heart racing, ''It seems I like her… Since when? Strange… But, it feels nice.''
