Monarch of Gluttony: System of Sinchapter 232: single handedly

****

A new world for Lia, but it was the home for Raphael.

It was as if nothing had changed at all. The place was just like he remembered. All houses looked the same. Even the people looked like they hadn't aged one bit since the last time Raphael saw them.

Raphael, Lia, and the old man were standing in the middle of the city, which Raphael had considered his home all his life.

The City seemed more noisy than usual as many people could be seen in groups, discussing about Raphael.

It seemed that today was the day when Raphael was caught and brought for his punishment in the Palace.

Most of the people here had some good impression of Raphael and seemed worried that he might be punished too severely. There were only a few who seemed to say that Raphael needed the harshest punishment for ignoring the Royal Commands.

Raphael heard all these discussions about him, feeling somewhat warm. When he was captured last time and taken for punishment, he didn't know that people outside were siding with him in such big numbers.

The people that he protected and made bonds with all his life... It was good to see that the bond wasn't broken over such a small thing.

Unfortunately for him, the people here couldn't influence his verdict. It all depended on the Godly King.

The old man brought Raphael and Lia inside the castle, where they could see something similar to what Raphael already saw before in one of his memories.

The godking didn't sentence Raphael to death. Instead, he gave a decree that Raphael was to be banished forever. He was never allowed to step foot here ever again.

Just like the people outside cared for Raphael, even the King did. Unfortunately, he had a responsibility to punish such unruly behavior. He needed to set an example, and he couldn't do that by freeing Raphael without any consequences, as that could motivate others to attempt the same.

Raphael was taken back after his verdict to be kicked out of the Empire. However, it was also around the same time that the entire world started trembling like never before.

"Same problem as my world?" Lia asked the old man, seeing a similar earthquake. The only difference was that this earthquake seemed slightly weaker than what her world faced.

"Not quite," the old man commented as he stepped back.

He turned around and left the castle, right behind the King and the other protectors of the Empire, who wondered if they were under attack. There had never been an attack similar to what there was now.

The old man stepped out of the castle, noticing a red hue in the surroundings. It was as if the entire world had turned red. The trembling of the world only intensified, but it wasn't from natural causes. It was evident that someone was causing it! And that someone could also be seen in the sky.

In the sky, everyone could see a figure. The figure was hidden inside a dark cloak which made it impossible for the person's face to be seen.

Let alone his face; the long cloak made it harder to even see his figure properly. It was impossible to even know if that person was a man or a woman.

Seven spheres of energy were circling around the man as if he was their sun and they were his worlds. Every minute, one of those spheres flew toward the Earth, creating a loud Explosion.

Surprisingly, even though these explosions were taking place, which was killing millions of people every minute, there was no explosive noise. It was like the world became silent wherever these Spheres of energy fell.

Moreover, after each sphere was used, another one took its place. At all times, there were seven Spheres circling around that person.

"Who... is he...?" Raphael couldn't see the person, but he felt as if he knew that person for some reason.

The God King had just stepped out of the castle, but before he could even react, another dark Sphere flew to him.

The God King and a few others cast a barrier to protect the city, but the attack passed through the barrier as if the barrier was nothing! Even the King was taken aback to see just how easily the barrier was broken.

The God King could only avoid the attack at the last moment since the attack had already passed through the barrier. He didn't know who the enemy was, but it was almost impossible to stop his attack at this moment.

The God King and the others flew up in the sky, avoiding the Sphere of Darkness that hit the castle, covering the city in pure darkness.

The God King and the others who had managed to survive saw the city surrounded by darkness from the sky.

Lia, Raphael, and the old man also flew back, watching everything like spectators from a distance. Raphael could only hear the screams and cried for help coming from inside the darkness, belonging to the citizens. One of the Warriors flew inside the darkness to help people, but he never came out. Only his painful screams returned.

The darkness didn't last for more than a second and dispersed, revealing a barren place that used to be a beautiful city before.

The castle, the people, all the houses, there was nothing to be seen there anymore but a huge crater.

The Godking couldn't believe that his home was destroyed that easily by just one attack. He was enraged! He wanted to rip the person who attacked them to shreds.

"The Gauntlets!" Lia exclaimed, noticing two Gauntlets appear around the hands of the Godking. The Gauntlets were similar to the Gauntlets that Azekiel used as his Weapon of Sin with no difference.

"I'll make sure even your soul won't have a moment of peace!" The Godking roared as he flew toward the dark figure in the sky.

The other Warriors also wanted to join, but they decided against it and stayed behind since they didn't want to interfere in their King's battle. They had faith in their King.

The dark figure turned toward the Godking. He didn't move. As for the dark spheres of energy, they kept flying in random directions, destroying the world more and more.

Even with the God King coming to him to attack, the man seemed more invested in taking lives and destroying the world compared to intercepting the King. It was as if the King wasn't even an ant before him to phase him.

"Hah, that idiot. He is just looking for death. After he is killed by His Majesty, even his soul will crave for freedom! He just doesn't realize it yet!" The Warriors in the back exclaimed. Even Raphael was a part of their group. He had been banished, but before he could be kicked out, this happened.

The others completely forgot about what he did. They needed all the help they could when their World was under attack, even though it was just a single person.

"Huh?" The Warriors who were smug about their King soon killing the enemy had their face go pale as they saw the outcome right before their eyes!

Their King couldn't even touch the attacker. Let alone touching him, he couldn't even reach that person.

Just as the King reached within ten meters range of the dark figure, raising his claws to attack, a thin line of blood appeared all around his neck... The line kept getting wider as his blood started leaking out. His head tilted to the side, falling off his body into the crater in the ground.

The King's body also started falling, but before it could also land in the crater, the dark figure raised his left hand. The body of the King stopped mid-air and started rising once again.

The body flew closer to the dark figure.

"Noo!" Raphael roasted, watching his King be killed. Without thinking, he attacked the dark figure as well while the other Warriors were still under a daze.

Unfortunately, they also couldn't harm the man who barely Snapped his fingers, sending all the Warriors flying back, bleeding.

They weren't killed, but they didn't look like they were left capable enough to fight either.

Most of the warriors died from the wounds themselves, while a rare few only lost consciousness from weakness and fell to the ground. Within minutes, the entire army was sent back as the dark figure continued its work of destroying the surroundings.

Raphael and Lia's spirit form could only be stunned at the strength that this person possessed. He had single-handedly destroyed an entire army and the world! He wasn't even touched from start to finish. Just who was this person? That was the biggest question they had.

Raphael flew closer to the dark figure. Since he was in the Spirit Form and not a part of this Timeline, he was sure he could get close and see the face of the person!
