Darnioz's ever-increasing body was getting to be a problem, even Alliron and Aratas could barely keep their material forms together as the suction force from Darnioz's body was getting stronger and stronger.Fortunately, the pride and sloth sins hadn't left my grasp after I have crushed the Goat head into minced meat.They were struggling out of my grasp, trying to fly towards Darnioz, seemingly wanting to combine with the other two sins that were existing in his body.But would I let that happen?I shook my head, I looked at the sins and started to crush them in my hands. Unfortunately, there was no effect no matter how much strength or energy I poured into my attempt.I wasn't at the level of strength where I could destroy the accumulated thoughts and feelings of so many people.These sins were powered by the existence of the people on the surface, and they would get stronger accordingly to the actions and thoughts of the aforementioned people.Greed and sloth were two sins that wer
The portal shimmered as three people left it. The first and foremost person was an oni-person with red skin and two muscle-like horns growing out of the sides of his head. He had giant stature of 3+ meters, bulging muscles all over his body, and different types of tattoos, the most glaring one being the decapitated dragon tatoo on his exposed shoulder. He was wearing a white tank top stained with blood that left us to see all of his tattoos and short tattered pants that didn't cover even his knees. His green emerald eyes were trained upon Alliron and Aratas the moment he entered, not even bothering to look at Shira and me, seemingly sensing that Alliron and Aratas were the stronger ones, even though no energy fluctuations came out of their bodies to betray their strength. The 2nd person to enter was a 1,80 tall humanoid with slicked-back green hair that reached his shoulders, his face was the epitome of annoyingness considering how smug he looked, and he had two katanas tied to his
Shira's fighting abilities increased continuously as she fought the pride demon, but there was something weird about him, no matter how better Shira got, there was no sweat on his brow, and his expression remained the same, making him look like he was fully in control of the fight, even though Shira started to land blows on his body using her hybrid form.It was certainly quite strange, especially since the pride demon even decided to sheathe his katanas once again.Shira wasn't sure if he was getting stronger at the same time as she was.So she decided to end the fight between the two of them in one sure strike that would kill the demon instantly!Shira's flaming body flickered constantly as she continuously improved and added new experiences to her fighting style.She even started to change her hybrid transformation, sometimes flicking back to human limbs or phoenix wings to combine certain attacks that enhanced her power and unpredictability.Things seemed to look good for her, but
The oni demon couldn't stretch his head to look at the situation of his allies, but he could sense that their auras had disappeared.The lack of sins that should have converged on his body made the blood vessels on his forehead pop up as the steadily increasing anger in his mind fully exploded at once!His muscles tripled in size as his body grew alongside them to support the new weight.The tattoos on his life were becoming more and more life-like, while Alliron and Aratas couldn't help but look at each other and nod.Now that the other two fights had been finished, they could go full power without the worry of the sins of the other two flying towards the oni demon and powering him up.Alliron stretched his body like a cat would, before the aura around his body changed entirely.Bloody mirages covered his whole body, showing decapitated bodies, sewn corpses to create chimeras and amalgamations of beings, bloody cadavers with missing organs, and many other scientifical experiments tha
The wrath demon was unable to block or dodge the attacks that boxed him in.Aratas's spear made its way between the Oni's legs, hitting him there directly, making him keel in pain as Alliron hit him over the head with a blood hammer from above!I clutched my chest as I felt my new three hearts beating at a rhythm that was in tune with the surroundings.It was almost as if all the previous tortures didn't apply to me anymore as I felt the breath that I took in was rather sweet.No more attacks from the surroundings were being put onto my body and mind, and I could feel that my soul had finally reached a full sin cleansing!I looked down at my hands while everything around me turned to a standstill.Shira was captured in a pose where she was striking the demon's back with her claws, ready to rip out his flesh.While Alliron was now wielding double hammers in his hands, trying to bash in the demon's head with them, just as if he was playing the drum.Lastly, Aratas was focusing on the de
While Alliron was making sure to be out of the beast's sensing area so it wouldn't change its targets, I was fighting it head-on!The wrath beast's attacks were scarring my very being, making my skeleton shudder as the power of the strikes were slowly crippling my body.Every attack I forcefully withstood made cracks appear all over my skin, my muscles cried out as they deflated, and the energy in my body was thrown in disarray.It was pure torture, something even worse than the previous tortures of hell combined.Especially since it was oh so slow, I couldn't help but glance at Alliron, hoping that his astral bow was ready for shooting, but I could see that he barely only made the base of the bow. He still needed the string and arrows!I clenched my fists as the beast socked me directly in the jaw, dislocating it entirely.I glared at the beast with my swollen eyes as I put my jaw back into its place and barely dodged another attack that would have taken my head cleanly off my should
My head was swimming as my eyes were closed while I was resting, I could hear the rough breathing of the nearby Alliron, and I could also feel that Shira was getting closer to my location before sitting just right next to me.I didn't open my eyes as I felt her hand on my forehead, she was giving me a gentle supply of energy to help me with my recovery.I nodded slightly at her action, most likely making her smile.My torn muscles and cracked bones were slowly mending without any immediate threat to break them anymore, the energy pool inside my body was slowly recovering, transforming into a calm ocean that regained its peace after a tumultuous storm.The 9th layer was supposed to have even further tortures for us, but hell understood our situations and had stopped all tortures from affecting us, we were being 'pardoned' for helping it.Of course, the remaining demons who were still alive were most likely going through beatings from the law enforcers combined with the tortures of the
After tasting despair, I could feel that the surrounding air had become completely cold, as I breathed in and out, I could see my breath create large clouds of mist that didn't dissipate for a short time.Everyone else was looking at the giant pupil that was previously the blood-red moon.The pupil was looking down at us, moving its iris from side to side, analyzing all of us slowly.Before we knew what happened, a thunderous crack was heard in the surroundings, and a slide appeared up from the eye.The eye opened up in the middle, revealing a rather short furry creature.Its fur was completely black, he had bright red eyes and yellow pupils, and he was going down the slide at quick speeds, approaching us.Alliron and Aratas looked at each other as they nodded, while I and Shira kept close to each other, making sure that we were suppressing the jumping sins we had jailed in our bodies.The closer this being was to us, the more we felt the sins in our bodies trying to break free.It wa
