Monarch of Gluttony: System of Sin-Chapter 142: 142: All the Sins

Raphael was stunned to hear her words. He was unconscious? How did she make him lose consciousness? And so fast at that? He was just awake?

Raphael moved closer to Azekiel and started asking him to wake up. Even though Leor couldn't hear him, Azekiel could. If he was really just sleeping, he should've woken up from the shouting.

Not getting any response, Raphael placed his hands on Azekiel's shoulders and shook him even more intensely, trying to wake him up.

"Huh?"

Leor stood up, shocked, watching Azekiel's body shake on its own. She couldn't understand what was happening. Was it her sister's doing? If that was the case, then how was she doing it?

"She was right. He is unconscious! That means the Triad Queen..." Raphael grimaced, realizing that Azekiel was in danger. If the Triad Queen wanted him unconscious, then there could only be two reasons. One was that she was going to attack the Orc Village when Azekiel was unconscious.

As for the second, it was that she needed him unconscious as a person's mind was at their weakest when they were unconscious. He considered both the possibilities.

Raphael wasn't very knowledgeable in the realm of magic and spells. He only knew offensive skills that could destroy someone, not something that could help them. However, there was someone who could help. He knew that they needed to help Azekiel wake up in the first place. Only then they could think about other things.

They had been tricked. They thought Leor wasn't dangerous because of the Mark of Servitude, but they were proven wrong. She was used like a tool by her sister. Just because they thought it was safe for her, they gave her access to this room, which was the biggest mistake, according to Raphael.

Unfortunately, they couldn't go back to the past and change it. They only needed to control the present.

Raphael passed through the wall and left the room, leaving Azekiel with Leor. Even though he didn't want to leave him alone, he still needed Lia's help over it. He needed to inform Lia about what happened here.

As he stepped out of the house, he noticed some of the Lords of Sins taking a walk under the sun. As for the rest, they have already gone to sleep. Some Orcs could also be seen hear the village boundary, keeping an eye on the surroundings.

Lia was standing near the main entrance under the beautiful moon. The gentle winds made her hair fly, along with her robe.

Raphael came before Lia. "You need to come with me. I need your help in waking up Azekiel."

"You need my help waking him up? Why? What happened to him?" Lia asked, accompanying Raphael back. On the way to the house, Raphael informed her what he had heard and what possibilities he had considered.

"Can you wake him up?"

"If he's simply unconscious, I might be able to. But first, I have to see what it's about."

Lia entered the house with Raphael. Azekiel was still on the bed while Leor stood in the distance, staring at Azekiel. She was still wondering why he was shaking if he was unconscious. She could see that he was still breathing. Just that his breathing was slightly inconsistent.

Unaware to Leor, there were now two more people in the room. Right before her eyes, Lia moved closer to Azekiel. She placed her hand on Azekiel's forehead and closed her eyes.

After a few seconds, she retracted her hand and started observing the room.

"What happened? What are you looking for?"

"The hallucinogen..." Lia exclaimed. "His body is filled with them. He breathed it in. That's what made him lose consciousness and nothing more."

She started checking the room but couldn't find anything suspicious. Only after failing to find anything she lowered her head and decided to check under the bed, finally understanding what caused it.

"This girl..." She now understood everything. "She used a plant to make him lose consciousness, which escaped the shackles of the Mark since the hallucinogen isn't life-threatening. However, as long as there's this in the room, waking him up will be hard. We need to purify his body."

Lia snapped her fingers, letting the plant burn in flames.

As the plant was created by Leor, she sensed when it was destroyed. She looked down, only to find the plant's ashes. So many strange things were happening in this room.

Leor connected all these strange phenomena with her sister's plan, even the destruction of the plant. Since she didn't need what her sister's plan was, she couldn't know that it was the doing of someone else. Someone else had destroyed the plant.

The windows of the room abruptly opened. Lia cast another spell, using her winds to send all hallucinogens that were in the air outside.

She made sure that they didn't affect the Orcs either.

After taking care of the hallucinogens, she placed her hand on Azekiel's chest and started chanting a purification spell to clear his body from all the toxins, including the hallucinogen.

*****

The Triad Queen was in Azekiel's dreamland, moving up and down, using her charms on Azekiel, who was still trying to resist, even though he couldn't deny that it really felt good. He hadn't felt like this ever before.

However, he still hated that he was with the Triad Queen, even if it was a dream and that he couldn't move. Everything was being done by the Triad Queen.

"You know you'll regret it when I'm free," Azekiel warned the Triad Queen.

"Don't worry, darling. By the time I'm done with you, all you would be able to do is beg me for more of it! It's just the beginning. I'll destroy your mind! I'll destroy your soul! I'll fill your body with lust like you've never felt before! Won't be long!"

"Hmm?" The lewd expressions of the Triad Queen turned somewhat serious as she noticed something. Her connection to this dreamland was much weaker at that point, and it was getting weaker. It was as if someone had affected the conduit that she was using.

As her connection with Azekiel weakened, her control over him also weakened. Azekiel also felt her control getting weaker as he was slowly able to move his body.

He grabbed the Triad Queen's throat. However, just as he did something, the Triad Queen disappeared. The connection was completely gone, freeing Azekiel's dreams of any influence.

The room around him started getting even darker as the dream started breaking. Azekiel was able to feel his real body once again. However, everything was still dark.

He felt a hand resting on his chest. He opened his eyes, prepared to attack the person this hand belonged to, but fortunately, at the right time, he noticed that it was Lia.

"Calm down. You're safe. I've removed all the toxins from your body!" Lia informed him, observing Azekiel's closed fist, which stopped just a few inches away from her chest.

Raphael informed Azekiel about everything to help him understand.

Boom~

The wooden door of the house shattered as a body came out flying, crashing against another house.

All the Orcs were stunned to hear the commotion. They all looked in the direction. Even the Lords were alert. They all came out of the houses, only to find Leor lying on the ground in the distance. Her lips were bleeding.

After her, Azekiel stopped out of the house, but his expression didn't look normal. His face was shrouded in anger. Even after he let Leor live, she plotted to such an extent that his mind was taken over.

Azekiel appeared before Leor, grabbing her throat. He raised her body in the air.

It was just as Leor was worried about. If their plan failed, Azekiel was going to be furious, and that's exactly what happened.

"I've given you all enough opportunities to side with me and to help me! If that's how you want to play, then that's how I'll play!"

He glared at all the Lords of Sins who were standing in the distance.

Seeing the anger on Azekiel's face, all the Lords were slightly scared. They had never seen him this angry before. Just what happened to him?

"You're all coming with me!"

Azekiel dragged the body of Leor with him and started leaving the village. He had never felt this insult before. In his anger, he was starting to lose his critical thinking to some extent.

Raphael was also surprised to see Azekiel like that. Something was strange about him, and it wasn't the first time he was noticing it.

Azekiel was supposed to be the King of Gluttony, and he did have gluttony. However, for some reason, he also showed the presence of other sins, to the same extent as Gluttony.

So far, Raphael had seen Gluttony in Azekiel. He had also seen Azekiel's greed which wasn't a small part of his goals. Even though his greed was about strength, it was as prominent as his Gluttony.

He had also seen some Pride in Azekiel. It was unclear what happened just now, but somehow it felt as if Azekiel's pride had been hurt... It was as if he had more than just one Sin that was dominant in his life... But that shouldn't be possible….
