Monarch of Gluttony: System of Sin

Azekiel read the Quest that he had received, again and again, just to be sure that he saw correct.

No matter how much he thought about it, the Quest didn't make sense! How could he have a quest like that?

"A quest that needs me to leave the Tower of Sin and back to the outside world?"

As far as he knew, there was no way to leave the Tower. That's why everyone was climbing the Tower to get to the top floor so they could gain the strength to leave the Tower and face the monsters outside.

However, the mission that he had received in itself was something that destroyed all the preconceived notions he had. From what he could grasp with the Quest, he didn't need to climb to the top floor to be able to leave the Tower of Sin! The Quest itself allowed Azekiel to leave the tower.

Moreover, he also understood something which was very subtly hinged on the quest. The monsters who had attacked his world... According to the quest, they were Demons. And they also had a Commander. They weren't just random wild monsters that just attacked out of nowhere! They were commanded to attack earth!

'If they have a commander, they must have a leader too. So someone intentionally attacked us and destroyed our lives! The Commander must be way stronger than the monsters that attacked us as well.'

'This mission... It is dangerous, but it's also a mission that I long desired! Those things! They destroyed whatever family I had! They took away everything from me and billions of people! They deserve to die, and I would be more than happy to achieve that feat, now that I have some strength...'

He had already accepted the quest, so he had to do it at any cost. However, even if he didn't have to do it, he would've still left the tower! It was a perfect opportunity to see the outside world once again! He could finally see how the world had fared in the last few years after the apocalypse hit the earth. He also wanted to go back to his own home and see if it was still intact.

When he ran last time, saving his life, he also left the body of his mother, who had adopted him. He wasn't even sure if her body was still there, lying like a discarded body or if it was eaten by those vile beasts. If her body was still there, he wanted to see her one last time and give her the burial she deserved.

He was so eager to leave that he wanted to go right away. However, he controlled himself.  He had one month to finish the Quest. Now that he was already on the Fourth Floor, he wanted to clear the Floors first before leaving.

He was sure that in two days, he could clear the Floor. As for getting to Liam, that was a tricky thing. He couldn't wait for the Triads to attack the Orcs. If they didn't attack in the next day itself, he decided that he was going to forget about Liam for the time being and leave the Tower.

He had two missions now. One was the mission to clear the floor, and the next was the hidden mission which was more important for him. He decided to finish both of them. The faster he finished the first mission, the faster he could leave the Tower on his second question.

He stood up. "Raphael, Lia. Come, we have a Quest to finish."

Not receiving any response, he asked again as he turned around. "Raphael? Lia?"

For some reason, none of them reacted to him. Both of them stood still as if they were in a daze. They had finished eating their apples.

"Raphael?" Azekiel placed his hand on Raphael's shoulder and shook him. Unfortunately, Raphael still didn't react.

"Don't tell me the apples were indeed poisonous." He couldn't help but have a bad feeling regarding the behavior of the two.

Just because the apples helped him, he assumed that it was going to be the same case for Raphael and Lia, but he wondered if he had kept his expectations too high.

"Raphael!" Azekiel shouted, but it was useless as well.

Frustrated, he started placing back and forth. "That old man! What was in those apples!"

As he walked back and forth, he finally noticed some movement behind him. Raphael appeared to be up.

Lia also stood up, glancing at her surroundings.

"You two are back. Are you alright?"

Raphael and Lia nodded.

"I am fine," Raphael answered, but there was something different about him now. Azekiel couldn't put his finger on what.

"What did the apples do? Do you see any changes?" he asked Raphael.

Raphael shook his head, observing his hands. "I don't see any change. Just that I don't feel hungry anymore..."

Even he couldn't believe that it was the case. He had suffered through this hunger for an eternity. He had already lost hopes of ever feeling satiated, but now that became a reality.

"I had a feeling that could happen. That's great news! Your curse is broken!"

"That seems to be the case, but I don't understand how. How can a random fruit break his curse?" Raphael was now even more curious about the identity of the old man. Just who was the old man that carried such mysterious fruits?

The old man could also go back and forth in time, and he could see their past. Even the Godking couldn't do it. Just who was this guy?

This feeling... The feeling of being full... It had been over a lifetime since he last felt this feeling. He had already forgotten how satisfying this feeling used to be.

He didn't know if it was just temporary or if the curse was actually broken forever, but in his pessimism, he believed it was just temporary until the Effects of the apple lasted. He didn't want to get his hopes up.

"What about you?" Azekiel shifted his focus to Lia. "Do you see any changes?"

"Only one..."

"And what's that?" Azekiel inquired. Even though he had a feeling how the apple could help Raphael, even he didn't know what it could do for Lia, which made him really intrigued about the effects.
