Guardian Of The End-Chapter 194 The Sin Of Wrath

Just like Risa had said, Issac was waiting for Jason right outside the house. His eyes were gleaming wiht a strange kind of happiness.

"I should have known that my grandson was going to be a genius. Thank your mother and her side of the family for that." Issac muttered with a smile.

Jason smiled back before getting to the main topic. "Where does Amon live?"

Even though he had been living in Duphia for most of his life, Jason had never seen the demon's house. Truth be told, he had never seen Amon around the town either.

"Well, he doesn't exactly live inside the town," Issac replied. "His circumstances are a bit… complicated. We can find him outside the town only."

After telling him that, Jason and Issac exited the town. Since both of them used their thunder element, they were able to do it in under ten seconds.

"Now that we are outside the protective barrier, Amon should be able to sense our presence. He will soon come out to meet us himself." Issac said confidently.

But before Amon could show up, two black threads shot out from nearby bushes and wrapped around Jason's legs.

Jason raised an eyebrow at this since he could sense that the threads were made from dark element. The affinity of the person responsible for their creation was also below his level.

'People should do their homework before trying to kidnap someone.'

Jason simply destroyed the chains by releasing a dark aura around him. The aura was created by concentrating dark magic together and using it to corrode the chains.

A bright flash of light suddenly went off in the distance, followed by the appearance of five new figures.

They were sent flying from their original spot due to an unknown reason and crash landed near Jason and Issac's feet.

"I was expecting someone from Julian's side to attack," Issac whistled. "Who could have guessed that demons would come this far to capture you."

The five figures lying around their legs had tiny horns coming out from the top of their head, marking them as demons.

All of them were knocked unconscious by the person responsible for throwing them out.

"Lucius has waited for a long time. I think he is finally starting to make a move…" A deep voice echoed behind Jason.

He immediately turned back with a guarded expression and was met face to face with Amon. A flicker of power happened the moment their gazes met. The other demon's dark green eyes stared directly into Jason's purple ones.

"You have already seen me twice before but I never got the chance to introduce myself," Amon smiled. "I am Amon Redmoon, one of the seven deadly sins and the demon responsible for the maintenance of the protective barrier around Duphia."

Jason blinked in surprise while his brain tried to process the information that he had just heard.

'He is one of the seven deadly sins just like Lucius and that woman Diana!'

[ I think we got this information before… ] The system commented. [ I can't seem to remember it for some reason. ]

'Does that really matter? We just have to wait and see how things play out.'

"Wait, you don't have horns." Jason noticed with a startled expression.

"High level demons can hide their horns," Amon explained. "Also, you don't have any horns either despite of being a half-demon."𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

"Am I supposed to have horns by now?" Jason asked in a concerned voice.

"If you recently turned sixteen, yes. If you are younger than that, there is no need to be worried. Horns usually appear in demons when they turn thirteen but since you are only half-demon, your horns will appear when you turn sixteen."

"I see…"

For some reason, Jason was getting a calming vibe from Amon. His simple presence relaxed his body and let him think more clearly.

[ I think its because of his divinity. From what I have managed to pull up, the sins have a divinity belonging to a god aligned with their respective titles. Ask Amon what sin he represents. ] Hestia suggested.

"Uh, Amon, what sin do you have?"

"Wrath," Amon replied with a neutral expression. "And in case you were wondering, my patron is called Yama."

[ Yama?! ] Hestia exclaimed the moment she heard the name of the god.

'What is he the god of?'

[ He is the god of death and underworld. Many deities share the same post but their powers depends on their myths and influence. Yama is like one of the top five strongest when it comes to gods of death or at least that's what I know. ]

'These things must keep changing. Is there anyone keeping a record of these rankings?'

[ I think the god of leaderboards, rankings, or records might have the information on this. I don't know how to contact them though. ] The system replied.

'I guess it doesn't really matter since we got the answer we wanted.' Jason pointed out.

"You have divinities inside you too." Amon noticed. "Mind telling me the names of the gods or goddesses they belong to?"

At this question, Jason turned his gaze towards Issac. The latter gave him a gentle nod, allowing Jason to tell the details of the divinities to Amon.

"One of them belongs to a god called Erebus. Another belongs to a god called Sancus. I don't know who the third one belongs to…"

"Interesting…" A smile appeared on Amon's face after hearing the names of the gods. "I know both of them. You must have had quite an encounter to end up receiving their divinities and becoming Erebus's follower."

"You know about that?" Jason asked in a surprised tone. He was sure that he had never told others that he was Erebus's follower.

"Don't worry, your secret is safe with me. Even your grandpa can't hear what we are talking about right now," Amon reassured. "I know a lot of things that I probably shouldn't. Another example of this is the goddess Hestia which resides inside you."

Not only Jason but Hestia as well was shocked by this revelation. There was no way for Amon to know this yet he still knew the real identity of Jason's guardian.

"Don't worry, I won't tell this to anyone either. I just wanted to remind Hestia that Hope is still trapped." Amon smiled. "They should be arriving soon as well."

Moments after he had said those words, explosions erupted around the area.

"So that's where you have been hiding, Amon!"
