Monarch of Gluttony: System of Sin

"I can never understand what is the problem with you all. It's the same with the old man.  You all treat me like a kid who doesn't know what I want? Do you really think that I would need your advice for anything?"

Azekiel was already very frustrated, and his frustration only increased the more he heard about it. He knew that at this point, there could soon come the point where he must actually kill whoever mentioned this thing in his anger.

He still needed the help of his Mirror Reflection, so he had to play along. Only his mirror reflection could properly awaken the inverse key.

The mirror reflection could see the frustration of Azekiel. He didn't want to make him more upset, so he just became silent.

He didn't talk about the past. Instead, he only talked about the future.

After a long journey, he finally reached the eleventh floor with Azekiel.

The Reflection Image brought Azekiel to the same castle. While the castle opened at a different time in the real world, here, it opened in the morning.

Azekiel was expecting at least timing to be the same in the mirror realm. That was why he timed it as such to not waste much time.

Unfortunately, he still had to wait for the Castle to open. While waiting, the Mirror Reflection claimed that it was getting hungry and asked Azekiel to accompany it.

Since he had time to kill, Azekiel also agreed with it and went to eat.

While Azekiel ate for hours, his mirror reflection only ate for a few minutes before claiming that it was full.

"You're only going to eat that much?"

"Yeah. I don't get very hungry."

"You're lucky. Hunger is something which can bring down even the Kings to their knees," Azekiel answered, letting out a sigh.

After he finished eating, he left the place and went back to the Castle, which was finally open. Azekiel and his mirror reflection entered the castle, which was also inversed.

The mirror reflection once again led Azekiel through the paths. All the traps were similar, just in reverse. The last trap was first, and the first trap was last, which was initially overwhelming since Azekiel expected a different kind of reverse. Fortunately, he was still able to handle it after his initial surprise.

Azekiel passed through the hallways to reach the central hall, which was also the same as before. The only difference was that the formation which was on the ground last time was now on the roof.

"You have the key. You know what to do," Azekiel stepped back. It was his mirror reflection's turn to handle her rest.

The Mirror Reflection brought a key that was similar to the key that Azekiel had. The key was pure white in color, which seemed to be the only difference.

The Mirror Reflection held the key, which was cold to the touch, and flew toward the roof. He placed the key on the roof. As soon as the key touched the center of the formation on the roof, it stuck to the roof like the roof was a magnet that was pulling itself closer.

After the key stuck to the roof, the Mirror Reflection bit his thumb and placed his blood on the key before coming back to the ground.

The key on the roof started changing as the formation awakened it. Meanwhile, the Mirror Reflection waited on the ground for the process to complete.

"This should be completed in an hour," he told Azekiel, who nodded.

Azekiel didn't seem like he was in any hurry to leave. "Their Mirror Realm is very interesting, even though it's not real."

"Interesting indeed and fun while it exists. However, as soon as you leave, this will cease to exist until someone else comes. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted," the Mirror Reflection chuckled. "I do wish you luck though. Now that you have both the keys, you'll need the luck to do what you're trying to do."

"If only luck could help someone." Azekiel shook his head. "I don't need luck. I need more strength. And only that can help me."

"Help you kill her?" The Mirror Reflection asked. "Can you really kill her this time when you couldn't last time?"

"You couldn't kill her even when you had the opportunity. You let her live, only to be killed in return. Can you kill her now? Or will your hands again hesitate when attempting to kill her, just because she's your..."

"You are treading a dangerous territory, my friend." Azekiel frowned. "You should know where to stop."

"I know where to stop, but you didn't. If you hadn't stopped, she would've been dead, and you would be... Anyway, I just hope you won't hold back this time. It doesn't matter who she is... You need to kill her after you're back to your old level. If you don't kill her, she won't let you kill him either."

"Your main goal is to get to that person, but for that, you need to walk over her dead body... You need to walk over the dead body of our mother..."

"I don't need you to teach me what to do. I know what I need to do. And as far as she is concerned, this time, my hands won't hesitate. It doesn't matter who she is. She is an obstruction in my path, which I need to remove if I need to get to that person." Azekiel stopped looking at his Mirror Reflection and focused on his hands instead.

He still remembered his hands trembling when he was about to kill her... The woman that was known in the Tower as the person who killed him. Unfortunately, no one in the tower knew how exactly she had achieved it.

When Azekiel told Raphael why he made this tower, he didn't tell all the lies. He did tell one truth. It was that he made this tower to bring his family back to life.

He also succeeded in bringing them back. Moreover, since they were weak in the past, he made this tower to transfer some strength inside them, making them stronger so they could protect themselves in the future.

He made this Tower for his own family and also opened it for others, so this place wasn't as lonely for his family. However, at the same time, he also kept working toward his main goal, which was to find that man...

He brought the Castle of Infinity inside the tower so he could have more control over it to locate that man who he believed couldn't be dead.

Unfortunately, to truly control the Castle, he needed even more strength. He needed to get stronger and increase his strength by a lot. Even through the tower, he couldn't achieve it, which made him turn to a much darker path.

Ultimately, just as he was about to succeed, he was attacked by the Warriors of the Tower! The people that he saved... They were the ones who attacked their savior, and that too when he was almost done.

Moreover, what was even worse was that this group was being led by his own mother.

He was on the verge of success, only to fail because of interruption. In his rage, he fought back and killed everyone who dared to stand against him.

He was even able to defeat his mother. However, unlike others, he couldn't kill his mother. He just didn't want to do it for some reason. She even apologized to him, saying she was swayed by others and she was wrong.

Ultimately, Azekiel just decided to forgive her for the time being.

Unfortunately, his mother didn't seem to have the same thinking. As soon as Azekiel let her live and turned around to attempt once again, which he had almost finished, he was attacked from the back by his mother.

He didn't remember much about what happened next or why he was out of the tower in the form of a baby. That part was still a mystery, but he did know who was to blame for it!

He didn't need his Mirror Reflection to tell him to kill her the next time he saw her. He had already decided that it was what he was going to do.

Unfortunately, he wasn't his old self. He didn't have the same strength that he had managed to gather throughout the years. He was much weaker and knew that he couldn't defeat her the way he was.

That's why the only option he had was to first regain his strength. And one of the best ways to achieve that was through the help of these two keys.

He wasn't strong enough to use them now, but when he was going to be strong enough to use them, he knew that these keys were going to be his most important treasure, especially now that he was going to have the Inverse Key as well.

Even in his last time, he wanted to use the two keys to become stronger, but he couldn't use the Mirror Realm because of limitations, but there was no such restriction now.
