Chapter 205 - Greed (1)



Chapter 205: Greed (1)

The world of the King of Gluttony collapsed. As the false world that existed in the gap between the boundaries of the demon world collapsed, a real world emerged.

It was the Garden of Life full of the power of life released by Scathach.

But Yong-ho could not recognize it. He cried in ecstasy.

Greed never missed the essence of the King of Gluttony. Greed tried to devour it completely.

Yong-ho’s heart responded to it. His heart, which was on the verge of being broken because of God’s heart, maintained its shape by accepting the mana of the King of Gluttony.

Absorbing essence was most efficient when absorbing that of someone who was stronger than one’s self. The King of Gluttony’s mana was enormous. It was a huge mass that surpassed what Yong-ho could take, like it was when he accepted Agares’s power.

The power of evolution opened its eyes and evolved itself on behalf of Yong-ho, who lost his mind while absorbing the king’s essence.

Yong-ho broke the bowl. Using the overflowing mana, he made a new bowl.

It would be good to say he completely changed for the better through evolution. This time, his body was made more efficient and powerful than before.

The number of his horns was still the same—six horns. But they were never the same before and after his complete changeover. His body was now closer to his mana. The number of passages that controlled his mana was rather down. The loosely connected springs merged into one to form a huge river. There was a dazzling green flash.

Since Yong-ho’s body was completely reborn, the loss of his shoulders didn’t matter. A lump of his mana became bones. Muscles and blood vessels were connected in a row, and on top of that, unblemished skin was added.

A huge amount of mana was released in the process. And, a collision of intense force comparable to this external fierceness took place inside his body.

It was the desperate resistance of gluttony.

Although Gluttony already lost its owner and got swallowed by Greed, it did not give in meekly.

Rather, it tried to eat away greed from the inside. The last malice left by the King of Gluttony turned into a terrible curse with gluttony.

The power of evolution could not help greed. Yong-ho’s complete change itself was already causing a terrifying torrent of mana.

Greed and Gluttony ate each other. It seemed that the Demon God’s heart containing both sins would explode any time soon. Yong-ho’s heart screamed silently amid the two sins’ competing rivalry.

And there was someone who approached him. Not one, but many.

Catalina screamed, hugging his shoulders. Five horns that sprouted on her head were vibrating violently, releasing mana.

Catalina stepped forward with mixed feelings of joy and pain. Kaiwan also forcibly opened her eyes, opening up her five horns. She saw the Godly Energy of Greed that got out of Yong-ho’s severed arms and began to shine alone.

Skull grabbed the Godly Energy. Ophelia and Eligos screamed, holding each other’s chest. Tigrius activated the power of synthetic evolution.

Aamon flared up alone in the air. The green flames of the red lotus looked at its owner, radiating a violent green light. Aamon gathered all the will of his subordinate spirits.

The Godly Energy of Greed shined.

Yong-ho, who was floating in the whirlwind of not only his own change but also the confrontation between Greed and Gluttony, felt all of his subordinate spirits now. At the same time, he perceived the power of Yuho Yuan, who were raising their voices from the Godly Energy of Greed and the power of harmony.

Greed possessed everything that the King of Gluttony built up and devoured.

Yong-ho, who gathered all the power of his subordinate spirits, trampled down the king’s desperate resistance and his malice.

Gluttony gave off its last malice. However, the tide was turned already.

The sin of Gluttony, kneeling before greed, took its place in the Demon God’s heart.

The dazzling green light fizzled out. Yong-ho’s body, which was floating, propelled by mana, fell to the ground, and the pain and joy that swept through his subordinate spirits subsided.

The silver dragon armor that was wrapped around Yong-ho’s body was dismantled and scattered.

After completing the second changeover, Yong-ho closed his eyes in supreme pleasure.

Then he fell, losing consciousness.

Catalina and Kaiwan staggeringly approached him. Skull sat down on the floor, holding the Godly Energy of Greed in his hand.

Aamon finally turned to Scathach’s mansion. Scathach, who could not leave the mansion, stood while looking at Yong-ho with a regrettable expression.

Two of the Seven Deadly Sins gathered.

The House of Mammon regained one of the seven Godly Energies, “Godly Energy of Fury.”

Aamon suddenly thought of Mammon when he last saw the king climbing the stairs alone.

It was the thing of the past. It was never going to be repeated again.

Aamon himself would make sure it would not happen again.

The flames of red lotus arose from Aamon. Then it disappeared into a handful of flames to return to the new King of Greed.

***

Gardimundi could not believe her eyes. Even though she closed and opened her eyes again and again, the scene before her eyes did not change.

The entrance to the dungeon of the House of Mammon was gone.

It wasn’t just a simple collapse. The entrance itself disappeared as if it was swallowed by a giant monster at a gulp.

Gardimundi hurriedly rolled her eyes. Fortunately, it wasn’t long before she could find the dungeon meerkats of the House of Mammon. They were sticking out their heads through a hole in the cut section as if they were hidden in the nest deep inside the dungeon.

It wasn’t the safety of the dungeon meerkats that Gardimundi was worried about. She was worried about the inevitable situation where she would have to run away, deserting them.

The House of Mammon was attacked. If so, who was the attacker? There was almost none in the southern land who could dare to attack the House of Mammon.

If so, was it attacked by an ‘outsider’?

Gardimundi bit her lips. She made a decision. Erecting her five horns, she began to glide by adjusting her wings. She soon landed on the ground to check the condition of the House of Mammon.

The dungeon meerkats saw her. So, if the soul of the dungeon was still alive and could deal with the outsider who appeared at the entrance of the dungeon, he or she was supposed to respond.

Gardimundi grabbed a steel spear instead of a huge flag symbolizing the King of Fury.

Holding it gently, she stared at the dungeon.

Then she quietly counted deep down. She decided to wait five minutes. When there was no response even after five minutes, she was going to storm into the dungeon.

When it came to the ‘outsider,’ there were only two—the King of Violence and the King of Gluttony. It was very unlikely that it was the King of Lust since the King of Lust was in a distant place, or the King of Pride and the King of Envy, who were now engaged in fighting with each other, would pick a fight with the House of Mammon at the southern tip of the demon world.

Even if it was an attack by the King of Violence or the King of Gluttony, Gardimundi should have double-checked it. It was her duty as the scout serving as the King of Fury’s eyes and ears.

Extremely tense, she felt the time that had passed so fast. Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

Strongly determined, Gardimundi took the first step. At the same time, she aimed at the front with a steel spear.

“I’m Eligos, the butler of the Mammon family. Welcome.”

When she was about to storm into the dungeon, she was stopped by a red beast who greeted her calmly. The beast’s upper body was revealed as if he was just done making a changeover, but his steel-like muscles made her feel he was not naked at all.

Gardimundi let out a sigh of relief briefly. His face and voice matched with the butler she had met the other day.

“I’m Gardimundi of the Garura clan. I’ve come here with a letter from Her Majesty the King of Fury. Was something bad happening here?”

When she asked him directly, Eligos smiled gently. Then he responded in a soft but firm tone.

“Something bad happened, but it was taken care of. By the way, I’m afraid we can’t accept a precious guest like you right now.”

After all, he declined her visit this time. But she put it bluntly once again.

“If you need my help, please let me know. I will try to help you as best as I can.”

“No thanks. Please forgive me for not accepting you who have come a long way.”

Eligos clearly expressed his intention again.

After all, Gardimundi gave up looking inside the dungeon. She felt it better to step back and take time than prodding him impatiently.

After putting down her iron spear, Gardimundi also withdrew her horns. She opened Sarasvati’s pocket on her waist and took out a letter and a small box.

“It’s a letter from Her Majesty the King of Fury, and her return present for your master’s specialty.”

Gardimundi presented the letter and the box with both hands, and Eligos, after hesitating briefly, approached her and accepted them.

In some ways, Eligos’s action was just normal, but Gardimundi narrowed her eyes because she sensed something unusual. A true scout like her was not just content with observing what she saw. It was important for her to discern the person she was dealing with, let alone objects around her.

In her eyes, Eligos changed, and he changed a lot overnight at that.

She could not know specifically how he changed because he had just done changing his power, but it was certain that he became “stronger” than before.
