Monarch of Gluttony: System of Sin

Azekiel sat frozen in his place as he saw what was happening before him! He couldn't believe his eyes as he went through the words on the screen again and again to make sure he wasn't reading wrong.

Fortunately, no one else could see the screen that he could; otherwise, there would've been a commotion in the tower! The Seventh King of Sin had appeared in the Tower! It wasn't a minor thing!

'I... I got a system of my own? And it's a Major Sin? How? No one has received a System after the day of awakening when we all first entered this tower. How did I get it now after three years from our time of entry? From what we all knew, only Sins that you committed in your life before entering the tower counted in the selection. So how?'

He weakly raised his head towards the roof as a pitiful smile spread across the lips.

"Did the Devil take pity on me?" he muttered. No one knew who had made this tower and where these Systems came from. But since this place was called the Tower of Sin, everyone had assumed that it was the Lord of Hell, the Devil, who had made this Tower. People didn't hate that though.

Just as God had failed to protect them from the apocalypse, the Devil came to the rescue. The people who lived their lives as good people were sidelined, and the Sinners got all the glory with the Systems of Sins that rewarded Sinners. At least, that was the theory that was going around. Honestly, no one could guess what the truth was.

Azekiel, who had died from hunger for a petty crime, was back to life. Not only was he back to life, but he was five years back in time, to the place where it all started.

Looking at what was going on on the battle screen, he was sure about where in time he exactly was.

He realized that the King of Pride was fighting on the Fourth Floor to clear it. Three years had passed since Lord of Pride had received his System of Pride, and he was already on the fourth floor.

Azekiel glanced at the man on the screen who often fought alone since he was too prideful. "I don't know how this is possible, but somehow it's true. It's like someone above had listened to me and given me a chance to take my revenge. Oh, sweet destiny... I am coming for you..."

"Hahaha!" Azekiel burst into laughter, throwing his head back. Even though he was laughing, a lot of anger was hidden behind that laughter and sadness in his eyes. Whenever he recalled the hunger, he went through and the torture, his soul felt a shiver. A tear left his eyes.

"Who is laughing? Shut up, you bastard!" A shout came from the distance.

"Yeah! King of Pride is about to clear the fourth floor! Stop laughing like a maniac, and let us watch in peace!"

"King Of Pride will soon clear the Fourth Floor! Amazing! He is so amazing! We are so lucky to have him! Now that he will clear the floor, we should be getting more tasty food!" A man exclaimed aloud, looking at the massive holographic screen before him. There was no limit to his excitement.

"Yayyyy!" Suddenly there was a loud wave of cheer as the crowd erupted in excitement.

"He did it!"

The screen showed one handsome man who seemed very prideful. He held a mighty spear in his hand that was covered in the blood of the monster that lay dead before him. There was no one else who was alive to face him anymore.

The man lazily glanced at the dead monster before turning his back on it.

"He is so cute! I wish I could be the girlfriend of the King of Pride! My life would've been so good! I would've been living like a queen!" A young lady exclaimed, letting out a sigh.

She wasn't the only one here with the thought though. There was not a lady who didn't have a similar thought; even married ones did.

All the men in the tower wanted to be like him, while all the women in the tower crushed on him. He was the Lord of Pride, one of the Six Sin Lords of the Tower of Sin!

"Showoff." Azekiel rolled his eyes. He knew the Lord of Pride all too well since he had worked with him. That guy was nothing but an arrogant jerk.

The reason he fought alone without a team was because he was too Prideful. Fortunately, this seemed to be working for him so far.

The only people in the team of Lord of Pride were the Porters. They were the ordinary humans who weren't selected as the Lord of Sin. They had no Sin System of their own and worked for the King of Pride.

They collected all the spoils for the Lord of Pride and carried the items for him, no matter how heavy. The King of Pride wasn't alone in it though. There were many Lords of Sins who used porters and hired people from Floor Zero.

The only difference was that only King of Pride had a team consisting of only Porters. No other Lord of Sin was in his team, fighting alongside.

"If I'm not wrong, one of his Porters has died in this raid. That's why he'll be sending someone to Floor Zero to select another Porter for the team. This was where I was selected last time. I was taken with them to serve them. To serve those bastards who didn't think twice before tossing me away!"

"But this time, things will be different. Before, I wasn't even a Lord of Sin, let alone a King of Sin. I had nothing. But now, I'm not alone. I am not the same old, weak man!"

He gazed at the system screen before him, smiling.

His eyes roamed over [Tap for more information]

Ignoring the shouts of the commoners who cheered for King of Pride, Azekiel tapped the screen. If he wanted to be strong, he couldn't just be arrogant like the King of Pride. He knew he needed to understand the system and become stronger for his revenge! Without that, he was going to just end up wasting this opportunity.

As he tapped for more information, another screen opened before him with multiple options.

[System Information]

[Mission Information]

[Abilities]

[Weapon of Sin]

[Stats]

[Mythical Support]

[Welcoming Bonus]

As soon as he tapped the screen, multiple options appeared before him, all different from the other ones.

"So this is what the Lord of Sins see. Fascinating..."

He had already known about some of these things. There was general information since there were some Lord of Sins who had boasted about this system to show off how important they were. Still, he wanted to go through it himself.

He pressed the first option.

[System Information]

[System of Gluttony: A unique system made for the King of Gluttony!]

[Description: Hunger is Gluttony, Curiosity is Gluttony, to see is to devour! One of the Seven Major Sins, Gluttony, is something that no one can escape. It's a necessity, but when this necessity evolves, it becomes a Sin worthy of a King!]

"One of the Seven Major Sins, Gluttony..." Azekiel sighed. "I already know that. I just hope it can help me overcome the Sin of Pride. I hope you are strong enough for that."

As Azekiel talked to himself, his stomach started growling. His hunger was setting in, and it didn't feel like normal hunger. For some reason, he felt like it was a Hunger same as he experienced on the ninth floor right before his death. It was too much to bear.

"How is this possible? I remember this day all too well. In the past, I wasn't this hungry. Is it because I'm now a King of Gluttony? My Hunger is..."

Even though it had only been a few seconds since the hunger set in, he started losing his composure. He needed to find food at any cost, no matter what happened, even if he had to commit another Sin! This time he wasn't scared!

Moreover, the food stock was controlled by the people under the Lord of Pride. If he was going to do it, what better motivation could he need? He decided to take the system on a test drive.
