Chapter 106: Rest

"My knowledge of the Seven Great was limited to as left behind in the inheritance, as well as what I found in the lost Shrine to the Emperor in the Badlands of the Shade Co, that of a natural leader,

"Pride, Greed, Lust, Sloth, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath The Seven Great Laws of the Deht and power While others ible tools, guided by the user Evil itself is merely a htly as he listened to Leader speak

They were currently on their way back to Oceapal City Dorian ran with big, leaping juround at a fast pace Hespecial Leader followed suit, though he actually was running casually, used to quick htlord had fled the ed to see what Lord Ru, the Aeth Vampire, had done, but hoped he was okay He’d taken a moment to check the site of their battle, and had found no one in the vicinity

After the battle, Dorian had asked Leader a few questions about the ‘Seven Great,’ curious as to what exactly thatLeader’s knowledge He knew that, realistically, there was no chance he could defeat Leader in a battle, even if he went into his Rage Dragon form

He’d seen the power and speed the Demon had shown The fact that Yukeli handled the Deodly skill and technique than to Leader being easy to beat

The Seven Great Sins, or Laws, of the Demon Race were several core concepts or principles that focused on certain desires These Lawsto Leader, the legendary Demon E an incredibly powerful expert just a step away from Ascendancy He had fallen in battle to the Great Destroyer

The De to take over Dorian’s body

"The Seven Great Laws are extreone Demonification Why, I remember back when I was a huh of an understanding to experience a baptism of the laws of the universe It was only when I truly becarasp the Law of Pride&8221; His voice was proud as he spoke, detailing his journey

The Seven Great Laws of the Dee in studying and practice Leader didn’t know exactly why, only that after he had undergone Deular hu the Law of Pride

De a hu to the Shrine of the fallen De, but joyful, experience, one that opened up entirely neorlds of thought to him

"I see, I see&8221; Dorian nodded his head, his voice aged and wise He was getting better at ihostly fellow really had a solid voice, Dorian could appreciate that, even if he was trying to murder Dorian and take his body

By the ti some of his own interpretations of the Seven Great, they had arrived at Oceapal City

"Move along, side a large flow of travelers Entering the city was as easy as it had been before, despite the evening light Oceapal City had no curfew, unlike ured this was largely due to its status as a travelers city

They continued to talk as they traversed the city

"Yes, Great Lord of Wrath The goal I set foraway frooal, to restore our fallen Race, is a far greater one than mine!&8221;

Somehow, Leader had come to the conclusion that Dorian wanted to revive the Demon Race to power once more The man had been struck by fervor, his eyes full of passion

‘Did Yukeli knock soht?’ Dorian internally eyed the Demon askance

Like that, Dorian learned that Leader was in charge of an organization trying to take over the planet Leader also was the same man that had ordered the attack on the Women Warrior’s mercenary team It was how Leader found him They had a series of connections in Fate now

‘Huh… So was this all planned?’ Dorian could re about how his plans had worked, but also how they had deviated

‘How ?’ He clenched his fists briefly He hated feeling as if he were merely a puppet, controlled by so I stopped hi that innocent woht have , and that ether’ He nodded

"Great Lord?&8221; Leader’s voice drew his attention

"Those woo free I have plans for them&8221; Dorian responded as they passed down one street and around a corner They had reached the center region of the city

The fading evening light had fully been replaced by darkness by now Despite that, the city was still abuzz with energy and life There were stone pillars set onto each street that glowed diht, while storefronts and businesses that stayed open had glowing torches or crystals, lighting theular people h the streets Some on their way to business, others to bars or places to eat

"Meet me at the Skycrosser Travel Company headquarters, down by the dock, to hihtly and nodded in return, accepting the coained ht with a sh Leader was only following hiht he was an Inheritor of one of the Seven Great

If he found out Dorian wasn’t really what he see, Dorian and Leader arrived at the alley the Blue Seal Casino was hidden in

His eyes wrinkled as he knocked on the door roughly He had some unfinished business

He received no response

"Hmph&8221;

BOOM

thud

A casual punch blasted the door open, revealing the insides of the opulent casino A few shards of woods blasted out, pelting the ground

"Huh&8221; Dorian

There was no one here

He looked around, walking up and down the aisles A slight shifting sound caught his ears and he looked up

On the front side of the casino, the side that lined the florist shop, he could see up through the roof A huge, gaping hole could be seen, stretching over the florist shop A s the air about

"Ah, right&8221; Their battle had destroyed the roof of that shop, and that shop was partially connected with the casino

"But everyone is gone?&8221; He could understand all the guests leaving But the casino owner too?

His body tensed up, for no apparent reason, as if he was in danger His eyes narrowed as he scanned the casino He looked up and down it, his gaze searching

‘Basic Magnetic Manipulation’ Dorian activated an Ability

WHOOSH

A s into his hand He flipped the coin, rubbing it

"No… They can’t have fled that quickly, right?&8221; He had seen the Nightlord run away, but at the speed they got back here at, he could only have been here a brief period of tih to h to pack up and run?

"My senses detect several life forms in that direction, Great Lord&8221; Leader spoke up, pointing towards one side of the casino As an Inheritor of Pride, he had an abnor and sensory physique

Dorian’s eyes turned towards the back of the casino As he looked over there, he realized why he felt so tense
