Monarch of Gluttony: System of Sin

Chapter 146 146: Real Trouble



Liam's face went pale at the sight of Azekiel accompanying Leor. Azekiel didn't come alone either. He was accompanied by the Lords that were supposed to be part of no team at the moment.

Seeing those Lords with Azekiel, Liam realized that those people had decided which team they were to join. That wasn't even his biggest worry. His biggest worry was still to see Azekiel here, and that too after they were captured. This whole thing had a stench of a scheme.

If it was any other King, he could've considered it to be a coincidence, but with Azekiel, it was too much to be a coincidence. Azekiel was someone who had already killed Two Kings. And now his appearance before him when he was weak and restricted?

He understood that Azekiel was here to kill him and that he was working with the Triads.

He wanted to ask where the Triad Queen was, but because of his mouth being closed, only a muffled voice came from his mouth.

Leor stood before Liam, looking down at him. "You schemed against the Triad Clan when we were so nice to you! You are such a vile person! Because of you, our people died! Because of you, our Queen died! And because of you, I would've died as well if these people hadn't helped me by saving my life!"

She felt her heart burn as she told such a preposterous lie, but she controlled her disgust. She didn't let it show on her face.

"We should've never opened our doors for you! It's all because of you! It's all because of you that we're in this condition!" She further stated, but this time she wasn't lying. She truly believed that it was all because of Liam. If they hadn't opened their doors for him, Azekiel wouldn't have become their enemy!

"Mmmm!" Liam struggled to speak so he could say that it was a lie, but he couldn't! Even with his strength, he wasn't able to break the Vines! He was a King who had less strength compared to the other Kings but more stamina and defense!

He believed that Azekiel had plotted against him and fooled Leor. He didn't know that Leor already knew that he was innocent. Despite knowing that, she went along with him.

"You have no idea how much I would've loved to kill UPI with my own hands for all that you did, but I won't! I'll give this opportunity to the person who saved my life! I'll give this opportunity to the person who was also betrayed by you!" She gestured at Azekiel before stepping back.

She just wanted to be done with it so Azekiel could be sent back.

Azekiel stood in the midst of the Triads, but he wasn't their enemy. Instead, he was their guest for now.

Azekiel went on his knees, sitting before Liam.

Liam's eyes were filled with rage as if highlighting their regret that he chose to believe Azekiel when the three Kings had gone to kill him! He believed him that Azekiel wasn't going to kill them and that he was only after Lucifer. It was clear now that he had lied.

Liam's biggest fear came true. Azekiel was before him, and he was all alone now, unable to fight back.

"I know what you want to say," Azekiel stated, placing his hand on Liam's head. "But plans change. Mine also changed. And here we are."

"I'll make it quick since you've been so nice to me." Azekiel stood up. He called forth his Gauntlets of Gluttony.

To unlock another form of his Gauntlets, he needed to kill the Kings with his Weapon of Sin. At the moment, he could even kill Liam without using any weapon since Liam couldn't fight back, but he chose the Gauntlets.

[The King of Lust had been killed by the King of Gluttony]

An announcement echoed in the entire tower once again. The people on the first floor were again surprised, but it also came as something that they considered a possibility of. Azekiel was called a Kingslayer for a reason, after all.

"Kingslayer strikes again." That's what most of the people on the first floor spoke.

The announcement also reached the other Kings. The King of Sloth and the King of Envy were the ones that were most shocked by this announcement, especially since they had discussed with Azekiel about this!

Azekiel had clarified to them that he wasn't going to attack them. He said that he was after Lucifer. That's the only reason why they let him leave, but with his current actions, it was evident that Azekiel had lied.

And the lie made him get to another King. Now there were only three Kings left in the tower, one of them being unreachable Lucifer.

Alioth wanted to get to Lucifer to tell him about Azekiel's threat, but somehow, he wasn't able to get a message to Lucifer.

He wanted to use Lucifer to take out Azekiel, but Lucifer was unreachable, which was irritating for him. His plans had already been derailed because of Lucifer's absence, but now, their team was even weaker.

Now only two Kings were left who worked together. On the other hand, Azekiel had become even stronger after killing Liam. Now Alioth even wondered if they could stand before Azekiel by teaming up or not. The chances looked really low before Azekiel's current strength.

He really regretted not listening to the King of Envy when he talked about taking out Azekiel before he became even stronger. They had a chance to fight back at that time, but now...? Now the chances were even slimmer.

He started thinking about their current options. If things kept moving like that, next, it was going to be their number. They could be in the next announcement.

The announcement even reached Lucifer.

"He is still the same..." Lucifer muttered in response to the notification. "Just like..."

****

It wasn't just the first few floors where Azekiel was being discussed. On a much higher floor, a group was present.

The group appeared to consist of many species combined, and all of them had a world-destroying aura around them. They were so strong that just from their aura itself, they could destroy a world like Earth.

"This boy... He is really something, isn't he...? He's only on the fourth floor, and he already took out more than half his opponents."

"The boy seems to be in some hurry. Unfortunately, the kid doesn't know what he's doing. He's only affecting his cause by killing other Kings before it's time. He would be in real trouble, but by that time, it'll be too late..."
