Chapter 2 - Miracle Cube

Amon rode through the city on his horse at high speed.

The townspeople quickly moved aside, giving way as soon as they realized he was a member of the Lucerion Clan, letting him pass.

As he rode by, everyone he passed bowed and saluted.

'Being a member of the legendary Lucerion clan really is something else.'

On Earth, he had never been treated with such respect; instead, he was pelted with insults for being fat.

He couldn't help but smile after receiving such treatment.

However, like day and night, where there is respect, there is also scorn.

"Look, the lazy young master has come out of his nest."

"He's probably just going to the brothel."

"No, I bet he's out looking for a girl to harass."

"He's nothing but useless trash, only able to squander tax money."

"The reputation of the Lucerion Clan is stained just because he breathes."

Hearing all the jeers, Amon's smiling mouth quickly froze.

'Just wait, I'll shut all of you up after I get the Miracle Cube.'

Amon passed through the city gates and rode into the forest.

Fifteen minutes later, Amon saw a carriage and also an undead pig facing off against a young man.

"…Liam…"

The name of the protagonist in Miracle Cube was Liam. He was an honest and naive young man.

In that carriage was a girl of exceptional beauty. She had long, straight blonde hair that reached her waist. Her skin was as white as snow, and her eyes as beautiful as emeralds. Like a princess, she wore an elegant white gown and had a cold, arrogant aura surrounding her.

She was Ariel Arcilla, Amon's fiancée.

Ariel was accompanied in the carriage by a man. He was her knight, clad in golden armor that radiated arrogance. In the Arcilla Kingdom, he was known as a genius who mastered both magic and swordsmanship.

He was Alvis, one of the characters Amon hated the most.

"Look at that lazy young master. He's running here because he can't wait to meet you, my lady."

Alvis sneered at Amon, disregarding his status as the young master of the Lucerion Clan. Alvis was indeed an arrogant man.

Moreover, he was a man with lustful intentions toward Ariel and always tried to provoke her into breaking off her engagement.

Hearing Alvis' words, Ariel merely sneered with disgust as she looked at Amon.

She too didn't like being engaged to Amon. After all, she was a magic genius.

If she had to be engaged, she wanted to be with a genius who was on par with her, not with Amon, who was lazy and untalented.

Meanwhile, Amon didn't even glance at them. His eyes were fixed on Liam, with mixed emotions.

He indeed hated Liam for his naive nature. But, after all, Liam had accompanied him during his days as a reader.

Logically, he wanted to kill Liam and take everything he had. However, his conscience said otherwise, urging him to befriend Liam.

'If I don't show up, Liam will lose to that undead. After that, Ariel will save him. Upon witnessing Liam's kindness and bravery, Ariel decided to befriend him. That's where their love story begins.'

As Amon was lost in thought, the undead turned toward him and roared, annoying him.

"Shut up! I don't have time to deal with trash like you!"

Amon threw one of his swords, destroying the undead instantly.

His action shocked Liam, who hadn't expected Amon to possess such strength. He hadn't imagined that an undead he couldn't defeat would be obliterated in a single strike.

Though Amon was lazy, he still carried the bloodline of a Sword Saint.

As Amon approached, Ariel, who had been watching, stepped out of the carriage with a reluctant sigh. It was her duty to greet the Lucerion Clan.

However, Amon didn't stop; he didn't even look at Ariel. His eyes remained fixed on Liam.

This caused a light blush to bloom on Ariel's beautiful face. She felt her pride as a woman trampled.

She hadn't expected her fiancé to ignore her and look at another man instead of her, despite her beauty.

"How rude. How dare that trash ignore you. You should break off your engagement with him immediately, my lady!"

Alvis seized the opportunity to provoke Ariel.

However, to Ariel, his words only added salt to the wound.

"Silence!"

After being shut down by the girl of his dreams, Alvis felt even more hatred toward Amon.

'Damn you, Amon! I'll definitely kill you! I don't care if you're from the Lucerion Clan or not! After I kill you, I'll take Ariel for myself. A woman like her belongs to a genius like me, not to trash like you.'

With both Liam and Ariel here, it implied that the Miracle Cube was nearby.

Amon immediately turned and headed deeper into the forest.

Five minutes later, he found an undead that resembled a human.

However, in its bony chest was a mystical golden cube.

"Miracle Cube!"
