Gacha Sovereign

480 Sins Trial Part 2

The next sin was about Sloth, giving him a world where he could stay peacefully with All of his women. He could see Alicia and Firia, Anna and Anya, or even Sherry and his system.

He sighed, wanting to stay here. Just like a happy ending, it would be a good place to stay, albeit this trial could not trap here in this kind of environment. Instead, it lit up the fire in his heart to make this place a reality.

He stepped forward and shattered the illusion, swearing he would create his paradise in the near future.

Unfortunately, if there was Heaven, then there was Hell. The moment he stepped onto the next floor, he would find himself in a very difficult situation.

He was teleported into a ruined kingdom. The women he loved were in the ground, dying upon another kingdom\'s hand.

Wrath can be defined as uncontrolled feelings of anger, rage, and even hatred. This test was to see how he would do his vengeance. Previously, he kept saying to himself to not hurt the innocents and even taught his disciple that way. Little did he know that he could say that because everyone targeted him, not the people close to him.

The moment he stumbled upon this, seeing his women dying right in front of his eyes.

Rage.

Rage crept into his head. A Rage that burned so strong as it was strong enough to melt even rock.

"Why? This is only an illusion. That\'s right. This is only an illusion." Alex kept chanting to calm himself. However, this sight kept coming to his memory and the rage burned even further.

Alex suddenly doubted his belief for the first time. He looked at the sky and trembled. His fire soared into the sky and burned the cloud nearby, expressing his rage at this moment.

His eyes started losing his light as he slowly made his way toward the kingdom that did this on the planted memory of this illusion.

His rage directed at all people in this kingdom, not only the soldiers or the sovereign of this kingdom but all.

He burned everything to the dust, killing every person who was in his way, even if they were only ordinary citizens. He killed the sovereign and 90 percent of the entire population. The last 10 percent managed to escape as Alex never spotted. However, he undoubtedly failed the trial.

It teleported back, making him experience it again. The trial started working to its potential and trapped Alex in a loop. This would be the reason why people could go crazy upon failing the trial.

The Seraphim told him that his time limit was a month. Any longer than that would be counted as his loss.

He had finished the first four sins with flying color, but he stumbled upon this sin of wrath. If he were the one who got attacked, he would only kill the culprit, but his women would be in a different case.

The scene continued to repeat, making Alex in misery.

Kill… Kill… Kill…

100.000 people…

200.000 people…

1.000.000 people...

Even after knowing that this was just an illusion and the scene was just repeating, Alex still could not control his rage. Surprisingly, Lin Xingzhi only stared at him, watching him carefully. She did not stop him, as this was undoubtedly his biggest setback.

Her heart wrenched in pain but she knew this was the part of him that would never change. She closed her eyes, remembering how Alex became a demon when his family or friends got hurt, but just laughed when the others mocked him or something.

She closed her eyes and said, "Kill… I won\'t stop you from killing them. However, I do believe you can solve this…"

Alex was looking at the sky. It was raining, but even the rainwater could not extinguish his hatred. "I admit that what I did was wrong, but even if it kills me, I just can\'t find myself regretting my action.

"If someone wants to kill me, I will get rid of that someone. However, if they tried to do something toward my wives, I would kill all of them. I don\'t care who is in my way, I will even destroy Heaven if it is in my way.

"This is not my weakness. This is my strength and my resolve to protect my friends and family. Even if it means my name shall go down in history as a tyrant, I will not stop.

"My enemies will tremble just from hearing my name and they won\'t dare to touch my friends and family. I swear that this is my shield, not a weapon."

He roared to the sky. If his friends used this resolve as their weapon to get something they wanted, he would personally cut them down.

Upon hearing his words, the sky trembled, sending a lightning strike upon him. The lightning strike was in the real world, hitting Alex inside the tower of sins.

"!!!" Stina and Zarall were taken aback by this incident, knowing something went wrong. They knew Alex had stopped in this wrath place for two weeks and had been worrying about him. Unexpectedly, before stepping inside the tower to stop Alex, a huge amount of killing intent shook the entire mainland.

"This… What is this…" Stina was trembling upon feeling this killing intent. "Seraphim, What is this?"

"Seeing this killing intent, I know he must be in the Wrath test right now. However, he should not be releasing something like this if he is in the test. In other words, he just breaks free from the illusion.

"And this killing intent… how many did he kill?" Seraphim trembled in shock.

"What is the trial for Wrath?" Stina asked him with worried expressions.

"I… I don\'t know… the exact detail is unknown but it certainly involves killing. It seems the trial is about revenge." Seraphim clenched his fists.

"Then, did he fail?" Stina gulped down.

"No. I don\'t know if it is because of the lightning strike or another thing, he undoubtedly completes the mission."

Little did they know it was because of his will alone. He was determined to clash with heaven for the sake of dealing with his wrath, albeit he did not know any single thing that just happened, including the killing intent and lightning strike.

Alex only knew he accepted the rage in his heart and would never change it. This rage was not for the sake of revenge but to protect his loved ones. It became a determination or sort and was recognized by the world as it sent down a lightning strike, breaking the endless loop of his trial.

The moment he returned to reality, he looked left and right, not knowing what just happened and why he was able to break free from the illusion. Even if someone asked him to release that amount of killing intent, he would not be able to do it.

"System, what happened?"

[You can continue, Host.]

Lin Xingzhi only smiled, acknowledging his answer. A rage… A rage to protect his family. Although it was different from his previous life, there were still some similarities.

Alex was confused to see the system answer. Usually, she would not answer his question when he was in the trial, it seemed there was something good happening today.

Knowing that, he couldn\'t help but smile as he stepped forward. As long as he was able to break free from that endless loop of misery, he did not mind the rest.

The sixth sin was Envy.

The world portrayed his previous life and tried to make him envy his little sister. As one would expect, he had matured enough to ignore something that insignificant. His Pure Fire had already made him a top talent. He also had the unique Sword, Spear, Alchemist, and Array Mastery. Above all, he had a Gacha System.

He could not picture someone who would have more talents than him.

The world instantly crumbled and Alex stepped forward.

Seeing the purple light shining, Stina and Zarall felt relieved. This would mean that Alex almost finished the trial.

Zarall looked at the last floor which was the floor of pride. He stumbled when taking this trial by himself before becoming the sovereign of Angel Race. Even so, after a few teachings from many masters, he could control his pride unless the opposite party had crossed the line. He hoped Alex could pass the test, remembering the tale of Supreme.

On the seventh floor, Alex got several problems. The first one was inside a country where he met the king. Alex had no problem greeting them in courtesy even if their strength was far below him. If they tried to force him, he would just release his strength showing that he was superior and yet, he still greeted them politely.

The second problem was sometime in the future, his son made trouble for many people. He, as his father, would lower his head to apologize. He never cared about this false pride anyway.

He would apologize if he was wrong and he believed he could teach his sons and daughters in the future to be humble. Of course, if they decided to utilize it to strike him, he would retaliate.

After a day, Alex completed the tower of sins and stepped onto the eight floors. The crystal was hovering around the floor, illuminating the whole floor for him.

The tower shone so brightly, alarming everyone in the continent. Most of them were clueless about why the continent experienced such a phenomenon while the elderly knew what this meant.

Zarall muttered, observing the tower. "He… has the Human Crystal that is supposed to be lost. Even Heaven sent its lightning to help him when he was stuck in the trial of wrath… Is he really the Supreme?"

Upon seeing Alex had come back, Zarall was the first one to greet him. "Congratulations on passing the trial. You don\'t need to worry about our races as we won\'t target you or your closest one. Still, I can only say that you are young and have many rooms for improvement. Believe in yourself and keep getting stronger.

"Yes." Alex nodded.

"Rest your mind first for a day or two in this place before going back. I am sure your mind is tired after this trial."

Alex glanced at the Phoenix Queen, who nodded her head, thinking he should open the Gacha while resting. "Alright. I will take up your invitation."

"Good." The Seraphim nodded, thinking about what he should do with this news. "You have gathered four crystals, right?"

"Yes."

"Then, your next target would be the Dragon Continent." He nodded.

Wondering why he was so certain about it, he asked, "May I know why you are so certain about this? I mean, I can take Naga Race\'s trial after this."

"..." Zarall and Stina made a troubled look. Stina explained, "I am afraid you need to become Tier 6 before you can challenge their trial."

"Tier 6? Why is that?" Alex was confused. Before they could answer, the system explained it to him.

[Host may remember about the Founder of Heavenly Sword Sect?"]

\'Yes.\' Alex said inwardly.

[He embedded his soul in that stone fragment. This is the ability of a Martial King\'s soul. To embed or trap your soul into an inmate object.]

[However, if you take a look at Zwaka. He has separated his soul from his body, making him able to wield all the things inside his palace. This is the Martial Emperor\'s ability to separate a wisp of your soul while maintaining your main body consciousness.

[Lastly, you can take a look at your Master. That is the ability of Martial Monarch\'s and Martial Saint\'s soul. Your soul will have Spiritual Energy reserves and utilize it. As for Martial Saint\'s soul, you can have all of your mental energy. This is why your Master can create multiple arrays at once, even though it is only a wisp of his soul. Unlike Zwaka, who had embedded his barriers or arrays in his place with his soul, your master did it just by using the energy inside his body. Anyway, you will learn it when you reach that stage.]

[I assume, the trial is related to that.]
