As Joshua expected, the powers of Gluttony and Lust were fighting endlessly over Kireuas body.

-Hehehe. Why dont you give up now?

-Hmph. What are you saying, you stupid pig? This is why I always said that Greed is better than you. Look at Greed. It already made the right decision to look for a new owner.

-You big-titted succubus.

-You pig who only knows how to eat.

-You witch.

-You no-good mouth.

-Slut.

-What?

They were inside Kireuas subconscious realm, but the actual owner of the body was nowhere to be seen.

-Ah, seriously! Were out of time. We need to bring the red-haired guy from the dimensional rift and persuade himare we going to continue doing this?

-Hehehe, thats precisely why you need to give up.

-Seriously?!

Lusts voice was tinged with anxiety, and for good reason. Greed had suggested locking up Kireuas soul in a dimensional rift because a fight between three Evil Sins could irreversibly damage Kireuas body. If that happened, they were all doomed because the Seven Evil Sins were literally power and nothing morein other words, they could not live on without hosts, so the Evil Sins had aGreed upon Greeds suggestion. Of course, Greed had been the one to do the deed because it was the most reliable among the three. But then they had run into an unexpected variable.

-We went through all that trouble to get this body, but its going to be ruined if we miss this moment. You know that, dont you?

A body without a soul was merely a shell, so the Evil Sins couldn't survive in this body if the original owner remained in the dimensional rift. Theyd had no problem until now because a new human soul had entered and temporarily sustained the body without knowing Greeds scheme. It had actually been quite fun to watch the human idiot acting pompous as if he were the bodys original owner, but then the human had been destroyed.

Gluttony still had not answered, prompting a fresh round of screaming from Lust.

-Hey! I told you that we dont have much time left!

-Hehe, three more fine-looking vessels seem to have shown up just now, so you can leave if youre in a hurry.

-You dont even mean it, so knock it off! Do you really think you'll be satisfied with them?

Lust had already experienced having a human as her vessel, so she had no intention of choosing a mere demon as her host. She had personally witnessed this humans tremendous potential to withstand three Evil Sins.

On top of that, Kireua wasnt affected by divine power, whilst demons had to utilize their demonic power to merely not die from it. A person like Kireua was very, very special. Not many humans could withstand the powers of the Demon Kings; it took at least one of the humans heroes for Evil Sins to even try settling in. 𝗳𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐰𝐞𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Lust ended up sighing.

-Yeah, I dont know. Lets just die together.

-Hehe Youre bluffing

-Do I look like Im bluffing?

Lust let her energy fade away and the space fell into silence. Only the sound of Gluttonys teeth quietly clattering disturbed the quiet. Neither of them spoke for a long moment until Gluttony quietly broke the silence.

-Seriously?

-You said it yourself.

-Then should we just get married?

-Are you crazy? Why would I marry a pig like you?

Gluttony was smacking its lips when an extraordinary level of demonic power suddenly lit up outside.

-This is?

-A pathway of demonic power? Is that supposed to lure us?

The two Evil Sins conjured an image of the outside to see what was going on. What they saw made them tremble with excitement.

-Huh? Is that?

-Thats that human girl Greed moved to, and was originally your body.

-Shes a little different? Wait, this power is

Lusts eyes slowly widened.

-Th-This power

-Its the Shining Darkness!

Gluttonys eyes gleamed. Despite living for eternity, there was only one time where it had felt demonic power of this level, and Gluttony would never be able to forget the shock and bliss that it had felt on that day.

-This is impossible. I wasnt sure before, but he actually reincarnated as someone else?

-No wonder Greed wants it.

Although the Shining Darkness was possessing the human womans body right now, the Evil Sins could feel that his real body was somewhere else. If the Evil Sins could merge with the Shining Darknesss soul, it wouldnt be impossible to get into the Shining Darknesss body.

-You can have this body.

Gluttony flinched and immediately stopped her.

-Wait.

-What? You told me to go earlier.

-I changed my mind. Ill leave.

-You gotta be kidding me. I cant believe how fast you changed your mind.

The two Evil Sins were now fighting to leave.

-Wait, the pathway is getting smaller.

-So long, you pig. Im out of here.

-Where do you think youre going?!

The two Evil Sins threw themselves into the inviting pathway, leaving Kireuas body empty.

The one-eyed demon, the witch, and the reaperCredos, Perchilin, and Tshkeryfroze. These demons were considered to be as strong as Demon Kingsthey were the third, fifth, and fourth strongest demons, respectively. However, the surge of energy surprised even these powerful beings.

-What is this?

-Someone possesses such demonic power in the Human Realm?

-Its the Evil Sins.

Credos and Perchilin looked at Tshkery, who leaned his giant scythe against his shoulder and continued.

-Cant you feel it too? The human woman is trying to take the two remaining Evil Sins still inside that red-haired human.

-I-Is such a thing possible? I thought two Evil Sins was the limit even for a Demon King.

-Have you forgotten already? There was one personand only one personwho possessed more Evil Sins throughout the entire history of the Demon Realm.

The three demons stared at the silver-haired human woman, shocked.

-Wait a minute. Isnt that girl holding the Demon Spirits spear?

-Youre right.

-A bloody-red spear, three Evil Sins Its just like

-Stop, Perchlin. What are you trying to say right now?

His name was taboo in the Demon Realm.

-This is not the time to fight amongst ourselves.

Tshkery, the reaper, was the most rational of the three demons.

-Its time to join forces. We can leave the Evil Sins to choose their owners themselves.

-You too, Tshkery? You want the three of us against one human girl?

-Credos, open up your one and only eye. What part of that human makes you think she is just a human girl?

-What?

The reapers of the Demon Realm could see peoples natures, and Tshkery was their king; hence, he could see that Lilith had two souls inside of her. On top of that, one of them was

Credoss eye widened and he trembled like an aspen leaf in a storm.

-Is this real? Answer me, Tshkery! Is that really the Shining Darkness?

Perchilin gasped in shock.

-I-its true, right? Its really the Shining Darkness! Oh! I cant believe hes in the Human Realm!

-All of us demons are now in the Human Realm, so there is nothing odd about him being here

-Its absurd! How long has he been alive? fre(e)webno(v)el

It was the Shining Darkness wielding his cherished weapon. The three demons silently agreed that they couldnt fight against him alone. However, Credos was practically rumbling.

-I refuse to accept it.

-Credos?

-Shit. After all this time, the Shining Darkness shows up out of nowhere? What kind of shit is this?!

Credos slammed his bat against the ground with all his power and glared at the other two demons.

-Lets make it clear here: were going to keep this a secret from Urus and Altheon and well share the three Evil Sins among ourselves.

-O-Of course.

-Greed is mine. Im not going to let either one of you take it.

Perchilin was the fifth strongest demon, meaning she was the weakest among them, so she simply shrugged in the face of Credoss threat.

-Im fine with that. It was the power of Lust that I was interested in from the start because that suits my abilities the best.

-Why arent you answering, Tshkery?

Tshkery was the third strongest demon, while Credos was the fourth strongest, so the argument came down to them. Although Perchlin acquiesced easily, it was different for the other two demons. All sorts of monsters and other beings had roamed the Demon Realm, but the most belligerent race of them all was the cyclops. The reapers, on the other hand, were impossible to read.

-Have you forgotten already, Credos? No matter what we decide among ourselves, its meaningless if Greed doesnt choose you.

-Im confident, so I at least want to have the chance.

The intense staredown between Tshkery and Credos lasted for a long time. All of the demons there were dreadful predators who had battled their way to the peak of their kind, so any of them could be chosen as the new owner of Greed. That was why Credos couldnt stand down.

-Okay. Go ahead.

Perchilins eyes shone. Credos flinched, surprised by Tshkerys answer, but guffawed.

-Hahahaha. Good! I dont usually like reapers because I can never tell whats going on in your heads, but youll be my first exception, Tshkery. Dont forget your words.

When Credos finished speaking, he stamped his feet against the ground, eager to rush into battle.

-Ill crush the human in no time.

-Wait, we should be cautious and work attack togeth

-No, no. I have a conscience. You guys gave me a great opportunity, so I cant do that. Ill work harder for it.

Tshkery looked at Perchilin, who nodded.

Credos leaped as high as legs would carry him, bat held high over his head to deliver his Moon Crush technique. This technique was known for its destructiveness, even in the vicious Demon Realm. The moment Credoss bat struck the ground, the entire area heaved and bucked as an enormous shockwave tore through the earth.

-Get crushed.

Joshua slowly lifted his head to the sky.

Cyclops always rely on their natural power too much. They never think things through.

-What?

This is why youll never get stronger than that, Joshua said quietly. He tightened his grip on the spear, which already had two clusters of power on its points. He gave it a light swing, launching an attack of demonic power that crackled with black flickers of lightning. The attack was far, far more destructive than his simple movements suggested, and its other effects were even more incongruous.

-Th-The sky!

Perchlin peered beyond Credos, horrified. The clouds hanging over them had literally been split in half.

Credos plummeted to the ground, shedding a veritable waterfall of blood.

Next, Joshua said.
