Monarch of Gluttony: System of Sin Chapter 19– 19

Azekiel casually glanced back at the Prince and the Princess, who was leaving. Before long, they disappear from his horizon.

It was also at that time when a notification screen appeared before him.

Following the notification, a timer started before Azekiel with five minutes on the clock.

Azekiel was certainly happy. He had received the title he was looking for. However, what surprised him the most were the rewards. Not only had he received bonus experience along with the Title but also an Escape Crystal.

He tapped on the crystal which was floating before him. A display opened before him with more information about the crystal, which was only a few inches wide.

[Name: Escape Crystal]

[Uses: Use to teleport to one of the floors you control immediately. If you don't control any other floor, you can use it to teleport to floor Zero without having to go through other floors]

[Warning: Can only be used once]

Azekiel closed the screen after understanding what the item was. It was basically what the name implied. It could be used in cases of emergency to escape and save a life.

Unfortunately, he also knew that it wasn't exactly that useless. If someone wanted to kill him on the first floor, was that person not going to follow him to Floor Zero? Since he didn't control any other floor, he could only go to Floor Zero with it.

"Why would I use it to go to Floor Zero if I'm in danger on Floor One. I would have more advantages on Floor One, after all. It'll be like I'm giving up all my advantage by going to the lower floor. So far, it seems useless." He kept the small gem-like crystal in his pocket.

He wasn't completely oblivious to the advantage of this gem either. "I think this can be more useful in the future. There would be many challenges ahead on the other floors. At that time, I should be able to use it to come to Floor One to rest. It's useless for now but won't be in the future."

Raphael nodded in agreement. "That's right. We can't be picky at this time."

With only four minutes left in the Timer, Azekiel moved back to eating. He didn't know why but he had a feeling that when he went back, Michael was going to be there. It was going to be their first meeting after a long time.

For Michael, it was their first meeting since they were kids. For Michael, Azekiel didn't exist. He hadn't even seen him properly after coming here. But for Azekiel, it was different. He had last seen Michael when he was forced to sit on his knees like a slave.

His hands and his legs were tied as he sat before all the commoners on Floor Zero, where everyone insulted him and called him a bastard. It was there when Michael declared his death sentence.

He didn't even look back as he left after declaring the death sentence as if Azekiel wasn't worth his time.

"Let's see if I'm worth your time now. You won't be able to ignore me this time, I promise. Last time, you were the King of the Domain, and I was a lowly servant. But this time, you'll be in my domain! I'll be the Monarch of that Domain while you'll be nothing!"

Azekiel was somewhat eager to meet Michael as well. He was also somewhat excited. At the same time, he was worried as well. He wasn't sure if he was strong enough to face Michael now or not. But most of his hopes rested on his new skill... The Card of Judgement. He didn't know what that skill did, but that was his mystery skill which could either make him or break him.

As the timer reached the last ten seconds, Azekiel finished eating.

He stretched his arms as he jumped up and down as if preparing himself. He had a feeling that Michael was going to be there waiting for him when he went back. It had been three hours after all. This much time was enough for Michael to get the news about his arrival and come to greet me.

He knew Michael all too well, and he also knew how prideful Michael was. It was not only his strength but also his weakness. Azekiel knew that the man couldn't ignore him after hearing that there was someone in the tower who was challenging him.

The timer kept counting down...

[00:05]

[00:04]

[00:03]

[00:02]

As Azekiel was more focused on the timer, he didn't notice that the Horse of Rowen was returning. The group of two was coming back for some reason.

[00:00]

As soon as the timer turned Zero, white light surrounded Azekiel.

His body disappeared, turning into specks of lights at the same time when Rowen landed behind him with his sister.

Both of them watched Azekiel disappear, completely shocked. They couldn't help but wonder if Azekiel was an angel who was sent to help them? Now that he was done, he disappeared?

"Could it be the reason he didn't come with me? An angel?" Elina muttered, seemingly blank. She couldn't help but think that she had kissed an angel

A beautiful book was lying on the shelf in the Library of Sin. The Book suddenly flew out. It opened on its own as pages started turning.

As the book reached the last page, a small speck of light came out of the book. The Book closed and went back to the shelf, staying silent.

The small speck of light started getting bigger before ultimately taking the shape of a human.

Azekiel looked around as soon as he returned to the Library of Sin, trying to find Michael, but no one was there.

"Did he not come?" He muttered, but it was at that time when he heard the sound of calm yet confident footsteps coming closer.

Soon, a figure came into his sight... A young man has arrived, donning a beautiful white robe, looking like a real King of the Tower. Michael had arrived before Azekiel... The two enemies who used to be friends were face to face with each other.
