Chapter 33: The Seed Of The Seven Deadly Sins
Chapter 33: The Seed Of The Seven Deadly Sins
The heaven devourer mountain. This was an ancient mountainous formation on the western side of Eldoria (the name of the kingdom) there were two legends tied to this mountainous formation.
The first was that it was the birthplace of an ancient world devouring snake called Lorthinram the creature was said to be one of the ancestors to which several snake species were born from. Not only that, this creature was said to have been as big as the entire mountain range.
Some even went as far as to insinuate that the mountain range was the body of the creature.
As for the second legend.....it was a more vague one. It stated that the mountain had a portal to hell or something along the line of a Demon emerging from it.
"Halt!!!" At the front of the platoon, the man in silver amour gave a command, to bring the whole platoon to a gradual halt.
"Set up camp!!" He commanded for camp to be set up. They had been riding for about two days now and most needed some rest, so setting up camp was the best, they couldn't face the enemy while being exhausted.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Later that night,
The men of the death squads were very effective. In a matter of moments, the camp was set up and a camp fire was lit.
"Once a knight of considerable reputation, now a good for nothing drunk with a passionate love for his cock. The famous Knight soon became a scorn to the eyes of his masters....so one day he was stripped naked and made to run down the streets of the Duan Royal city....."
In the front of the camp fire, Dorian stood with a guitar in hand and sang the song and tale of a great Knight who fell from grace.
This man was a famous Knight with a big backing, but because he fell for the wrong woman, he was dishonored and betrayed. She turned him into a pariah.....it was truly sad.
This story was not too different from what this previous owner of the body, was going through.
"Sir Dorian, please enlighten us with the name of this "mighty" knight"
From inside the crowd, a young man from the Death squad asked with genuine intrigue. There were death soldiers, matters of knighthood could never be in their preview as they were always on the battlefield.
However, that didn't mean that they didn't enjoy hearing about the scandals with knights and the nobility.
"He-he, I'm afraid if I called his name, the princess would throw a tantrum and destroy you and me!!" Dorian laughed out loud while the corner of his eyes trailed to where Arian was seated.
Noticing the gaze of Dorian and the other members of the Death Squad, Arian turned around and looked away slightly.
This puzzled them all, especially Leon. What did the shamed knight have to do with Arian? And why was she behaving like that?
(The mystery gradually unwraps)
Leon thought in his mind while staring at Arians back. He then proceeded to stand up and walk up towards the carriage where she was seated.
'Are you good?" Leon asked.
"Hm!!" Arian nodded with a cold and expressionless face. Her pride didn't allow her to show any emotions, but Leon saw right through her.
(She's the perfect candidate)
Leon thought in his mind before walking to the side of a tree. There he took his seat and assumed the lotus position.
"Treasure!!?
Leon muttered under his breath, and in the next second his consciousness was pulled from reality into the pagoda in his mind.
"Sea of wisdom" he spoke once again and was pulled into the sea of wisdom where he was surrounded by a library of books.
"Hmmm" he turned around and walked all the way to a particular part of the library devoid of books.
There, a pillar of light shone upon a ball-shaped object hanging in the air.
[Ding!!

]
The seed of the seven deadly sins. Leon got this function as soon as he broke through and became a level one warlock.
It was intriguing and immediately caught Leon's eyes because there was a perfect candidate right beside him.
Arian!!!
All he needed was a time and a place, and he would strike and bag himself a being of incredible potential.
All he required was time.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
The next day, the death squad packed up their camp and headed out once again, And too not long after they set off, they arrived before a massive encampment not so different from theirs.
This one was a bit different though, as its sheer size was multiple times the one they were from.
