Monarch of Gluttony: System of Sin

[Congratulations, you have finished the Hidden Quest]

As soon as Azekiel conquered the last Empire, a screen appeared before him.

As he had already finished the trial already, he didn't expect something like this to happen. The only reason he went with the plan was to have some advantage of his own.

"A Hidden World Quest?" Azekiel tapped on the notification.

[Hidden World Quest: 'Conquer all the Empires in this world' has been completed]

[Special Title Received: Conqueror of World]

[Would you like to equip the title as a secondary title?]

[Yes]             [No]

Azekiel didn't know what the title implied, but it came with the hidden quest, so he was sure it must be something good. Moreover, it was a secondary title, so he didn't need to remove his old title, which was King of Gluttony.

He tapped yes.

[Title Equipped]

[Title Effects activated: You will receive a five percent bonus on all Experience Points]

[Title Effects activated: You will receive more hidden quests opportunities]

[Title Effect Activated: The consumption for your skills has been decreased by Ten Percent]

[Title Effect Activated: Your Favorability with the humans is doubled]

[Title Effect Activated: Commander: People who fight for you will gain a ten percent temporary boost in their stats while fighting]

As soon as Azekiel equipped the title, he was stunned. Even he hadn't expected this one title to come with so many advantages. This one Title came with Five Hidden Effects, all of them being amazing on their own.

A Hidden Quest that needed someone to go above and beyond what the trial asked them... It came with just as amazing a reward.

Curious about what his stats looked like right about now, he closed the notification and went to his stats.

"My Stats... They are quite a lot more than what Michael had at this point. This war was certainly worth it."

Azekiel observed each of his stat carefully and compared them to what he had seen with Michael. Just from the stats alone, he had already left Michael behind, but he still lacked something.

"I did increase my stats based on Soul Snatch, but my level is still not high enough. Too bad new skills can only be received with level-ups. At the moment, I really have no offensive skills, as highlighted by Elijah."

"I might have higher stats than Elijah and Michael, but when it comes to offensive skills, I am too far behind. The only thing I have are cards of Judgement, but after what I saw before, it's evident that it's a double-edged sword that can fail me anytime."

"I need to focus on leveling up. I need skills... I need offensive skills."

Going through his stats, Azekiel had realized the biggest flaw in his arsenal.

****

Even though none of the other Kings took the news about their Empires being conquered seriously, they did take the news about Azekiel killing the Kings seriously.

For that exact reason, one of the Kings had called for a meeting of the Kings.

A meeting between the supreme beings of the tower never really took place before; but then again, no King had ever been killed before either, let alone two.

The meeting was initiated by the King of Sloth on the Fourth Floor, which all the Kings had access to, unlike the Fifth and the Sixth Floor, which only a few had access to.

There were six Kings when the Kings were decided, but with the death of two, only four Kings were left from the first batch.

Only three of the Kings showed up.

Only the King of Sloth, the King of Lust, and the King of Envy sat in the meeting, all alone. Not even their teammates were allowed in since it was a private meeting.

"Lucifer isn't coming?" The King of Lust asked Alioth.

"How can he come when I couldn't even invite him? Apparently, that guy has already cleared the Fifth Floor," the King of Sloth answered. "He is already on the sixth floor. Even I don't have access to that floor, so it's impossible to get in contact with him unless he comes down, which I doubt he will anytime soon."

"He already cleared the Fifth floor? But didn't he finish the fourth floor just a few days ago?" The King of Envy frowned. Jealousy flickered in his eyes.

He couldn't believe that guy was already on the sixth floor while he hadn't even finished the fourth floor.

"What can I say? He must've been really motivated by something. Generally, he takes things easy and enjoys his conquests. That's why he often finishes the floors second or even third, but this time he was probably a bit too serious. Anyway, if we can't get to him, we can only start the meeting without him."

The King of Sloth acted as if there was nothing shocking about the King of Wrath finishing a floor in two days. "If we can get in contact with him, we can later tell him about it. For now, let's focus on the new kid Azekiel."

"Anyone know anything about this guy?" he asked.

"I've never heard about him before the announcement about him killing the King of Pride," the King of Lust answered.

"Heh, why would you know about another guy? You will only know about girls," The King of Sloth chuckled before glancing at the King of Envy. "What about you?"

"I also didn't know anything about him before him killing Michael. But I did investigate a bit about him. Apparently, he lived on Floor Zero for the last three years. Either he just became a King, or he had been a King since the start but is just starting to take action," the King of Envy answered. "I believe it's the former."

"Interesting. Why do you think it's not the latter?" The King of Lust took a sip of wine, seemingly curious how this guy got to the conclusion.

"If he became a King from the start, why would he stay on Floor Zero for three years?" The King of Envy asked.

"Maybe he was scared of climbing the floors before?"

"If the person was scared of even going to the first floor, you think he would dare challenge another King and kill him? No matter how much I hate him, from what I've heard about him, he doesn't feel like a coward," the King of Envy answered.

He added, "That's why I believe he just became the King. As for how, even I'm not sure. No one has ever received a title after the first day of awakening. How he gained... Only God knows."

"So he's not a coward, but an arrogant prick who just gained a title yet wants to swallow us all. That idiot, he is really looking to die, isn't he?" The King of Lust rolled his eyes.
