Monarch of Gluttony: System of Sin

The Energy Waves passed through Raphael and the Soul Demon.

By the time they reached the two of them, they were already much weaker than what Azekiel had faced because of his close proximity. Raphael and the Soul Demon came out unharmed entirely.

,m The Soul Demon looked to Avila, wondering what made her use this attack. However, just as he gazed in her direction, he saw Avila disappear, leaving him alone here.

He hadn't seen her getting hurt, let alone seeing her Armor being impaled. He couldn't understand why she would go alone, leaving Azekiel alive, but he didn't care. He believed that he alone was enough for everyone here.

He and Raphael began their battle. Both of them were so fast that it was getting difficult to even see them.

The two of them were like shadows that fought, and none used a weapon either.

Learning from his past mistakes, Raphael didn't let the Soul Demon catch him. He didn't even let his body be in contact with the man for more than an instant. Each punch of his, each attack was done with precise calculation.

Unfortunately, the Soul Demon seemed to be slightly faster than him, avoiding most of his attacks. His speed was further boosted by the stolen strength of Raphael.

The Soul Demon laughed, watching Raphael's attacks which kept missing him. It was like he was playing around for now, not even getting serious.

"Enough playing around. Time to get serious." The Soul Demon smirked, raising his right hand toward the sky while flying back to create some distance.

"Let me show you why I'm called the Soul Demon!"

"Come to me, my Demons!" He roared, gazing at the dark sky.

"Kekeke."

"Master called us!"

"Finally!"

"We can feast now!"

"Master is back!"

"We shall eat!"

Thousands of shrill voices echoed in the surroundings as a dark formation circle appeared above the Soul Demon's hand. Thousands of dark spirits came off of the formation, cackling.

Each of that Spirit appeared to have an aura that wasn't much weaker than the Soul Demon himself. Moreover, even cracks could be seen appearing around the dark spirits as if then the Space here wasn't strong enough to hold these Spirits.

All those Spirits flew to Raphael. However, just as they were about to reach Raphael, a version of Raphael appeared all around the Spirits, confusing them. Each of those versions of Raphael appeared to be the real one.

Seeing so many versions of himself, even Raphael was stunned, but he understood who could've done it.

It was the work of Lia, to provide him some support. As Lia kept the spirits distracted, she made the real Raphael invisible, allowing him an opportunity to kill the Soul Demon.

[00:20]

Azekiel arrived under the Soul Demon, who was flying high in the sky. He also noticed thousands of Raphael's in the air, yet his focus was only on the Soul Demon, who was distracted by the illusion.

"Using such weak illusions on me? Disappointing." The Soul Demon clapped his hands, sending some mysterious waves. The entire illusion cast by Lia was destroyed in an instant, leaving nothing.

All the fake Raphaels were destroyed, leaving only the real one who became visible once again

"This man mocked us!"

"He tried to fool us!"

"Argh! I will kill him!"

"Kill him!"

The Dark Spirits were furious at being fooled. They surrounded Raphael from all sides, yelling in their shrill voices that could make anyone go insane. They also created a field around Raphael which made even the air around him decay along with his skin.

Azekiel was amazed at how powerful the Soul Demon was. He could even keep Raphael at bay, leaving no chance for him to fight back.

There was only one way for him to save Raphael, and it was to kill the Soul Demon, which he believed was going to disperse all the Dark Spirits.

Unfortunately, because he was unable to fly, he couldn't reach him.

[00:15]

"There is no time to think! If the Defence Breaker works on physical attacks, they should also work on..."

He spun his body, using his feet, giving him the momentum as he swung his claws, shooting the Energy Bullets, which was the only attack he had that could attack in long range.

He covered all the areas around the Soul Demon to make sure he couldn't dodge.

The Soul Demon lazily glanced at the incoming energy bullets.

"Useless."

He casually flicked his fingers, casting the same energy barrier around him again. Thanks to Raphael's energy, he managed to regain most of the strength that he lost because of being imprisoned for so long. He was able to cast all his skills now, including his barriers.

"Huh? What?" The Soul Demon watched the energy bullets pass through his barrier as if it was nothing! It shouldn't have happened.

He was so overconfident that by the time he realized, it was already too late.

The energy bullets hit his entire body, hitting his shoulders, chest, and even legs.

That wasn't even the worst, as following closely behind the energy bullets was a dark hammer.

Bam~

A skull exploded as the Hammer of Gluttony hit it straight.

[00:02]

The Soul Demon's skull was shattered to smithereens, leaving behind a gruesome sight as a lifeless body came falling. The hammer also came falling behind it.

Thud~

The headless body dropped to the ground. The hammer also followed close behind, landing in the chest of the body, breaking the bones of the Soul Demon.

Not only did Azekiel's energy bullets pass through the barrier, but his hammer also passed through the physical defenses of the Soul Demon, destroying the skull, which was so strong that even ten full-powered hits from a hammer shouldn't have been able to break it.

[00:00]

[The effects of Absolute Defense Breaker are over]

[Congratulations! You have killed the Soul Demon. Rewards have been received]

Azekiel let out a sigh of relief. The Soul Demon was dead, and even the system confirmed it.

However, he soon realized that everything wasn't good. His assumption was wrong. The Soul Demon was dead, yet all the Dark Souls that he had summoned were still there, hurting Raphael.

Instead of the Dark Spirits leaving, they appeared to become even angrier. Most of the Dark Spirits maintained the Soul Decaying Field around Raphael while the other rest flew to Azekiel, mad that he had killed the Soul Demon.

"Enough!" Raphael's mighty roar echoed far and wide, sending even the ground trembling. A powerful yet scary aura spread everywhere, clearly not belonging to the Dark Spirits.

Something appeared to have happened. Azekiel wondered if it was coming from Raphael? Just what was happening?!
