Imprisonment

When Arthur opened his eyes he felt pain from all over his body making him bite his lip in pain. He gritted his teeth and tried to get up, but it was if his hands and legs were tied up with invisible shackles, he was forced in place.

Arthur concluded that this place should be the prison of this world. It was actually built using unknown silvery-white metal. Other than several small holes in the door for ventilation, the entire room was sealed.

"What the hell is this place?" Arthur blankly looked at that illuminating light ball while thinking.

Memories that didn't belong to Arthur overflowed in his mind again, which caused him to have an unbearable headache. Slowly with the help of the system, these fragmentary memories combined together and a familiar scene flashed one after another through his mind.

Arthur began to calm down, from the memories, he finally learned that this was a sword and magic world known as Blue Waves Continent. Blue Waves Continent had three empires and a number of vassal small countries. The three empires respectively were Proud Moon Empire of the northern side, Nalan Empire of the southern side and Violent Dragon Empire of the eastern side. The western side was Elven Forest and Hengduan Mountains. Elves lived in Elven Forest and Beast-men lived in Hengduan Mountains' plains and hills.

The Young man he had possessed was the little son of Ximen Nu, the patriarch of Ximen clan which was one of the most influential of four major clans of Violent Dragon Empire. This year, he was 18 years old, he also has a half-big brother and a half-little sister who had the same father but different mothers.

His Big brother was called Ximen Tian and he was the vice-commander of Violent Dragon Empire's elite legion, the Violent Dragon Legion. His Brother was 28 years old, and he had already cultivated Violent Dragon Douqi passed down in the clan to dark blue colour, reaching Great Swords Master realm

Arthur continued to straighten out the memories of Ximen Yu, the four major clans of Violent Dragon Empire were Dongfang clan, Nangong clan, Beitang clan and Ximen clan. Among these four clans, Ximen clan possessed the largest forces, next was Dongfang clan and as for the other two clans, although they were of equal importance, but the strength difference was not limited to just a few grades.

In this world, magic and douqi were prevalent. Magicians were the most popular profession but also the profession with the least amout of people, because magic was too difficult to learn. Other than diligence, they also needed comprehension to become a magician.

According to the memories, magicians are sub-divided into Fire Magician, Water Magician, Earth Magician, Light Magician and Dark Magicians. Moreover, there are rare Spirit Magicians and Necromancers. Magicians are classified as Apprentice Magician, Beginner Magician, Intermediate Magician, Advance Magician, Master Magician, Mage, Archmage, Master Archmage and Magic God.

Similarly, according to the ranks, Warriors were classified as Apprentice Fighter, Beginner Fighter, Intermediate Fighter, Advanced Fighter, Swordsman, Swords Master, Great Swords Master, Swords Saint and Swords God.

Along with the rise of their ranks, their douqi colour will be different, Apprentice doesn't have douqi, Beginner Fighter's douqi is light cyan in colour, Intermediate Fighter's douqi is dark cyan in color, Advanced Fighter's douqi is light green in colour, Swordsman's douqi is dark green in colour, Swords Master's douqi is light blue in colour, Great Swords Master's dark blue in colour, Swords Saint's douqi is purple in colour and Swords God's douqi is gold in colour.

*The system has stored all of this information for you Arthur, the rest of your innate abilities are being activated, this will raise your Warrior rank significantly due to the skills of your grandfather in Swordsmanship and Archery, you will most likely become a Swordsman with a dark green douqi. I suggest that the host uses some of his new found strength to break his chains, once that is done, put your hands on the wall. I have a theory that may allow you to use magic.*

Arthur Felt his body pulsate with the an unknown type of power, he channelled it to his arms and tensed them as hard as he could, a snapping sound rang out in the small prison and Arthur used his now free hands to free his legs. One free he placed his hands on the wall like the System suggested and his body began hungrily absorbing the electric current in the wall.

After that, he discovered that the silvery electric currents were cheerfully entering his body, as if a lost child that had suddenly found a home. Although he didn't know why he was feeling this, Arthur truly had such a strange feeling. More and more electric current flowed into his body, but Arthur didn't feel any discomfort.

In the imperial palace of Soaring Dragon City, Long Ling'er was sitting blankly inside the pavilion beside a rockery with four or five imperial maids standing far away. It had been hard for them to serve this Her Highness the Princess for these past two days. She didn't beat or scold them, but those lethargic eyes however made these imperial maids feel as if they were inside the frozen cave.

Long Ling'er had become a lot thinner, and her heart was already frozen. Now she used cold indifference to build a dense cocoon, making herself believe that everything that had happened that night was just a nightmare. From then on, she absolutely hated night, as long as it was dark, she would recall that perverted evil smile of Ximen Yu, that beast, this disgusted her as if she had just eaten a fly.

When Long Ling'er was sitting there blankly, an imperial maid cautiously walked over to her and said softly: "Your Highness the Princess, Miss Ximen has come."

"Let her in." Long Ling'er coldly said. Ximen Wuhen had come here several times before to see her, but was restricted from entering. Even though she was her best friend, she still was the younger sister of Ximen Yu, that beast.

A beautiful person wearing spotlessly white priest robe walked in. she had a long black hair hung down to her waist which fluttered when she was walking, this made her appear as if she was dancing in the wind. Looking at her closely, she possessed a great beauty which could intoxicate countless men.

Her eyes were like autumn waters, she had a jade nose and a louts mouth, and her skin was snow-white. And especially that gentle and warm temperament she unintentionally emitted, that could make people feel as if they were cleansed by a spring breeze.

"Wuhen, if you are here to plead for that beast, then you don't need to say anything, I will never let him off." Long Ling'er said right away before Ximen Wuhen could say anything. She really was afraid that if her close sister was to plead on the behalf of that beast, then it would be rather difficult to refuse her.

Ximen Wuhen softly sighed: "Ling'er, I am not here to plead for him, he has to bear the consequences for doing such things to you. My Ximen clan let you down."

Hearing the gentle words of Ximen Wuhen, the misery and grievance of Long Ling'er welled up in her heart, then she tightly held Ximen Wuhen and wept.

Ximen Wuhen gently patted the back of Long Ling'er while consoling her softly. Honestly speaking, she was disgusted with her second big brother from the bottom of her heart. He truly was the shame of Ximen clan. She really couldn't understand why father would let him indulge like this, could it be that because his mother was the Miss of Dongfang clan?

"Wuhen, what should I do? What should I do?" The strong front Long Ling'er was putting on broke apart in front of Ximen Wuhen. The chaste status of a woman was regarded extremely important in Violent Dragon Empire. Even if it was any other woman that had experienced this disaster, then she would have been frightened out of her wits and her spirit would have collapsed, let alone herself who was a noble princess.
