Chapter 334 – Seven Deadly Sins (1)
It’s been four hours since the intruders ran amok and escaped the church.
Quaang!
After receiving the report from the priests who had spread throughout the upper floors, the garden slammed the desk with its fist and became indignant.
“You mean you still haven’t found it!”
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s been three hours since he left the church! But still can’t find it?!”
More than a hundred priests have left the church to find the intruder.
Four hours would be more than enough time for a hundred priests to overthrow the entire upper floor.
Even so, the fact that he couldn’t find even a single witness, let alone him, was enough to make him uneasy.
‘Did you escape already? No, it can’t be… !’
It can’t be.
Upon learning that there was an intruder in the church building, his first action was to contact the black market manager and close the only passage to the upper floors.
Because of that, everyone who entered the upper floor was unable to go out.
In the midst of that, there was no way that the intruder could escape alone!
“Damn… !”
Time is running out.
“Open the door right now, you bastard!”
“Do you want to see a church destroyed? Uh?!”
The number of people who complained to them began to increase.
If the passage continues to be closed as it is, those who pour out their dissatisfaction in front of them may come violently.
With bloodshot eyes, he gave the final instructions to the priest in front of him.
“30 minutes from now… , Find him in it.”
“Yes, old… !”
The priest hurriedly runs out and the garden sits on a chair and sighs deeply.
While he erupts in volcanic rage.
The dwarf man, clad in black armor, was bursting with cold anger.
Sreureung
The blood on the sword stuck in the wall at the end of the hallway is solidified.
Although it was obviously thrown at the head, the opponent avoided it as if it had eyes on the back of its head.
Thanks to that, all I could do was cut a little on his shoulder.
“…”
He caressed his still-throbbing chest to cool the simmering rage.
I received an undeserved reward for what I only did with a shallow cut on my shoulder.
The moment he saw the blue flash of light running through sparks, he felt it.
‘Death.’
A clear death approaching me.
If he hadn’t been able to defend himself by encasing magic in his armor, he would surely have been killed.
It was the first time.
The opponent who gave me fear even for a moment.
So he deliberately hid it.
The presence of blood on my sword.
“… Look for it.”
I heard that there are some Awoken people who use blood to find the owner of that blood.
If you ask them, you will be able to meet the owner of the blood on my sword.
However, that meeting had to be done with him and himself alone.
‘Kill.’
Because a ray of fear and disgrace carved in the heart can only be erased by facing it alone.
I vowed to find him and kill him with my own hands.
Clap
He carefully pushed the bloodstained sword into the scabbard.
* * *
Son Si-woo was the only one in the church where worry and anxiety, hot and cold anger were mixed and whirled, was carefree.
No, it was made casually.
“Whoops… , Don’t worry too much.”
Michelle.
She, one of the four paladins who will assist Son Si-woo in the future, is placating him.
Even the heavy armor was thrown off.
She pushes her enchanting body and constantly makes noise.
“I’m sure you will never have to lose anything with this.”
“I guess so.”
He answered calmly.
He wasn’t pretending to be bold while hiding his worries in front of a woman, he really thought that.
At first, I worried a lot inside.
Could it be that everything built up so far will collapse because of this incident?
But it soon calmed down.
As I felt a sense of security in Michelle’s voluptuous breasts as she held my arms tightly, I changed her mind.
He was sure
‘There’s no way my image will be damaged by this incident.’
The intruder only overheard a few conversations between himself and his garden and escaped.
Based on that, my image doesn’t break even if I talk about it on the Internet or on TV.
No, to that extent, it cannot be broken.
While living as Son Si-woo, he clearly realized.
The fact that the image of a national hunter built up by risking his life for decades is several times stronger and thicker than others think.
A secret conversation with a cult priest?
‘It’s enough to refute.’
Saying no is enough.
The media, no, the whole of Korea is favorable to him.
People who are swept around by various gossips, reporters who claim the right to know, large corporations that feed the country, and even the government that leads the country.
That is the power of the name Son Si-woo in this land.
If I add a little bit of exaggeration, I wonder if the whole of Korea could have become a cartel for him if the original owner of this body had even a little bit of a bad heart.
‘There’s nothing to worry about.’
So don’t worry.
No, you shouldn’t.
Because.
‘Because I’m trying my hand.’
Because I have to do that to live as Son Si-woo.
So, even now, we need to be a little bolder.
With tears in my eyes, I get up from her seat, tearing off Michelle’s voluptuous body clinging to my arm.
Then, looking down at her with her rather heavy gaze, she opens her mouth.
“All four of you come to the guild by tomorrow afternoon.”
“If it’s a guild… ?”
“If you want to move with me, you must at least join a guild.”
“Ah yes. That should be it.”
“And tell the garden priest.”
“What…”
Remember
The angry expression of Son Si-woo I saw on the Internet.
I transfer it to my face and continue talking.
“This thing… , That there shouldn’t be a second time.”
In a way, it’s false.
However, the extremely hard body surrounding the weak mind wrapped it up so that it seemed infinitely sincere to Michelle, who accepted it.
“Yes yes… , Bar, I will definitely tell you that.”
Michelle nodded her head as she answered with a trembling voice.
It doesn’t feel too bad.
The feeling of looking up at her opponent’s eyes filled with fear.
No, honestly, it feels good.
‘I wonder if the guys did that too?’
Reminds me of the crowds that tormented her.
Kim Jeong-hun and his gang who ran errands for bread every day, took money, and beat them.
Did they feel this way when they looked up in terror?
Is that why he was more vicious and persistently harassed?
“Flaw…”
Son Si-woo laughs helplessly.
I don’t know.
I don’t even want to know
But, I know one thing for sure.
I’d rather die if I die, I don’t want to go back to the days when I couldn’t even resist anymore and just suffered.
I will somehow get through the crisis and get what I want.
Whether it’s Han Joo-hee or fame.
‘It’s all mine.’
To that end, he is ready to do anything.
No, I just finished preparing my heart for that.
* * *
From the black market to the house.
One word from their conversation runs through my head.
“Invidia…”
If you search the internet for this, here’s what you’ll find:
[The long-awaited release of the 9,000th ZTX! Will the rebound succeed this time?]
[9,000 ZTX released after the 8,000th generation of the previous level of oblivion, did you sharpen the knife?]
The first thing that appeared was a crazy graphics card company that goes back and forth between heaven and hell whenever a product is released.
Attention is focusing on whether the chairman of the Taiwanese Hwang family, who became known as the Hwang family when he released the 8,000th generation last year with the highest level of oblivion, will be able to regain his honor.
“What is his graphics card…”
Well, it’s not that I don’t understand.
If the product you’ve been waiting for turns out to be worse than expected, it’s a bad feeling because it’s a common mentality for everyone.
“This is not it.”
But it wasn’t the information I was looking for.
Every time I turn the page after that, a lot of different things pop out.
Short dramas, animations, etc. That came out in the distant past.
Then, the dictionary meaning written on the language dictionary tab that I inadvertently clicked caught my attention.
“Envy, jealousy… ?”
Was it Latin, not English?
The thought of hating and worrying about the prosperity of others as if you were losing yourself.
And.
“One of the seven deadly sins…”
It’s a word you’ve heard before.
The seven sins regulated by the past Christianity.
I know that the Vatican Orthodox Church, which has become popular since the launch of the Hunter Society, is also promoting a doctrine using this.
Of course, not as an external doctrine, but in the form of norms that must be followed as priests.
Ordinarily, in order to become a priest who worships a god, things are specified that you absolutely must not do.
Of course, whether they really keep all seven sins… , Well.
“You should have seen a lot of rotten bastards.”
I heard that there are not one or two priests who ask for money in exchange for participating in the dungeon raid.
Isn’t coveting money an act against doctrine?
“The seven deadly sins…”
I think the invidia that they talk about most likely means jealousy, one of the seven deadly sins.
Go through the site linked to the word and look at the seven kinds of sins.
Pride (Superbia), Stinginess (Avaritia), Jealousy (Invidia), Anger (Ira), Lust (Luxuria), Sloth (Pigritia).
And…
“Greed (Gula).”
The moment I said the last word, the fragments of memories that had fallen in my head began to come together.
Invidia means jealousy, one of the seven deadly sins.
And even the sub-character of gluttony given to me.
Considering that greed, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, is called gluttony or gluttony, two of the Seven Deadly Sins have already appeared before me.
Fragments of the last memory that comes to mind.
“Face to face.”
504 people who gathered in one place, ‘those with qualities’.
And seven chairs with special powers placed there.
When I think about it, terrifying thoughts run through my head.
“Perhaps…”
Perhaps the qualities that 504 people, including me, have are deeply related to the Seven Deadly Sins.
