Chapter 130: Dinner With The Devil

Dora was paralyzed by what Eryl just said. He looked at his comrade in disbelief, but neither objected, which meant they were well-informed.

"Are you kidding me? What are you saying, do you have any idea..."

"Wait..." Eryl raised her hand. "Please trust me, I know this sounds stupid, and that’s exactly why I’m sure Greed won’t be stupid enough to start lashing out."

Dora, with pleading eyes, looked at the Dean and Freya, but both, while worried, did not move an inch.

Eryl took a deep breath and her eyes darkened.

"Now listen, Sin of avarice, I know some things about you. I don’t know you personally, but I’m sure that since you’re Dora, you won’t take blindly any opportunity that’s given to you. You don’t feel it now because you’re not under control, but outside this building, Gluttony is waiting. Now you’re strong, you’re probably strong enough to take down anything in this world, but I also know one thing. You woke up two years ago at most, but Gluttony has existed for a thousand years... If you had to fight, would you have a chance?"

Dora frowned, a feeling prickling in his heart. Eryl took the box and stood next to the bed.

"Now listen, this is how we’re going to do it, we can’t allow something stupid like fake security with chains. With this method, as a caged animal, you will be more motivated to go wild at the first opportunity, so this right here will solve the matter. We will put this blessing in your chains.

"... What?"

"This blessing has the power to reduce anything to zero, like a sudden hunger for something. To put it simply, it will erase any kind of energy around you, so no attacks, no power from within or from the outside will touch you. No poison in the food, no power in the punch, and any kind of energy will be reduced to zero, so if you wake up, you will immediately lose your power and sleep again."

She took the apple which was glowing and emitting waves of energy.

"This will wake you up, so what happens next is up to you, if you behave well, you will still exist, you won’t be so held back, basically, you will have a better chance of achieving your goals..."

The energy entered her hands and lit up the room, Dora looked in shock, his eyes beginning to glow.

"... But if you rebel now, Gluttony is ready to finish you off, and let me warn you, she’s very different from the one you’ve seen before."

With a swift and confident motion, she reached out and tightly gripped the chain. As she did so, a sudden explosion of energy rocked the room from its core, sending waves of orange lightning coursing through the air.

The chains, tying Dora’s hands, were now dramatically illuminated by the brilliant light. It was a truly stunning sight to behold, and one that left Dora in a state of shock as his body froze again.

He fell onto his bed like a puppet, under everyone’s worried gaze. Freya forced Zuri away by grabbing her, and so the room waited in silence for the demon to wake up.

A few seconds of silence passed, where breathing seemed like a huge effort, but then, a sinister laugh alerted everyone.

"My... How far do you have to go to restrain a caged beast?"

Slowly, in a uniform movement, the torso rose, dragging the arms and the head, a broad smile on his lips, and when they opened, the yellow eyes of avarice brought a chill into the room.

"Hehe... Aaah... It’s so painful... It hurts... It hurts so much..."

Zuri tried to get closer to Dora, but Iris held her back. Dora had a big, almost innocent smile with a very normal facial expression, but something was wrong.

"Don’t be so harsh... I’m just a child... hahaha..."

"So it’s you, the monster withinside... the one who destroyed Genesis and killed so many people."

The boy tilted his head and scratched his chin.

"My... Is that a question? Will you release me if I say no?"

He glanced around the room and waved to Agharita and Candace.

Eryl sighed and took a few steps back.

"You currently have the power to kill everyone here now... despite these chains, you could assassinate us instantly, and nothing could stop you... your time is also limited... so I assume you are cooperating? "

He glanced at everyone and lowered his head. He slowly raised his head, showing his right eye under his hair.

"You really like threats, don’t you?... I can feel her out there, yes, and I guess I can’t face her... So I have to admit you got me good there, good job. I won’t do anything."

He plopped down on the bed, letting everyone breathe a sigh of relief. Freya put her hand to her chest and regained her calm, she gave a warm smile to her friends and some rose murmurs, which seemed to displease Greed.

"But are you really fine with it?" He said, interrupting this brief peace.

Eryl, still on her guard, took a step forward.

"And why shouldn’t we? This much satisfy me."

"Really? Are you satisfied? But what’s next in your bright plan?"

He sat down again, his face darkened with a teasing smile.

"Are you really fine living the Avatar of Greed in the side in such a dire time?"

Candace looked around her, then at Dora.

"You mean the Twilight of Gods?"

"Are you just gonna play stupid or are you born like that? Look around you, look outside... Do you think cutting my wings will change anything? Do you think the world is saved now? Don’t make me laugh! Why hasn’t anything changed in one year? Have you ever considered your options? Gluttony and Pride won’t do anything, because sadly for you, they are exactly the worst kind of being to hold this power... they are humans."

His eyes shone brightly, forcing everyone to be on guard.

"Are you counting on Gluttony? Please, she won’t do anything, because as a human she is linked to a normal feeling that you share: fear. She is afraid of Pride, she is afraid of me... because she knows deep down that as you said, the only difference between her and me is time, she knows that I could put my fang in her skin if I had more time... and she knows that the enemy of time is precocity, and I am an oasis of talent. These chains are proof that I can rip out her heart, she can’t kill me because she is afraid of Pride, so I will always live in her shadow until I get the chance, and I know I will be stronger than her."

He tilted his head to the side, a big smile on his lips.

"A Sin Avatar is stronger when she perfectly embodies her sin. I mean, look at her, do you see gluttony in her? No, because the human won... But unlike her, I am pure Sin, the embodiment of avarice. .. I can become stronger, I can surpass them all, and I know you will soon give in because you have no choice... And as humans, you are so ready to manipulate that I could warn you but still succeed, look. .. Yes, the fusion of Personas, the one you remake as Anesidora, is within me."

Eryl frowned and in an instant, she felt the reaction of the girls near her.

"Yes, I told you before that there were two Dora, and there will still be, Greed’s true potential isn’t in uniqueness... but there’s one thing: I can make him appear and let him take the control, Dora still exists, but only I can awake him, me, not the imposter who took my win. If you want to see Anesidora, you need me."

He finally gave Candace a teasing smile.

"There are too many reasons to not restrain me, you said it yourself too... I am chaotic neutral, I don’t discriminate, you are all soul stones to me, you and the monsters, so sooner or later you will release me because at least I will get the job done... and Gluttony will do nothing to kill me because she fears the consequences."

A minute of silence planned in the room. Candace reached out and walked next to a mirror then rearranged her hair.

The nymphs also changed their behavior and sat on chairs while Nosfera dozed.

Candace turned around with a teasing smile.

"Oh, don’t you know, we have a plan to face the Twilight of the Gods without you."

Dora stood still for a few seconds then his eyes turned towards her.

The dean walked towards him with a satisfied expression and leaned on him.

"Kalaharis."

Dora’s eyes widened and the dean sat up, crossing her arms.

"Why focus on three broken Avatars when there’s a continent with another one? We’ll go ahead and contact her, since we’re really desperate it won’t be a problem to try, so don’t worry, you will have a lot of time to think... In your cage.

Silence fell again in the room, but soon the walls began to shake.

The nymphs’ eyes glowed and the emissaries took an offensive stance, as Dora’s aura cracked the wall.

His eyes were wide, followed by a terrifying smile.

"Sloth... You reject the Devil but seek your savior in Hell?"

He tried to get up, but the chains were about to take away his remaining energy.

"You have no idea what kind of world you live in... if you think you can go to the Kalaharis and find a light of hope among these things... then good luck."

He slowly fell back onto his bed, completely drained of energy. The wall stopped moving and the tension in the room was palpable. No one made a sound or moved for a minute after the last warning.

The operation was successful, and the goal of controlling Greed was achieved. However, no one could have predicted the terrible consequences of his speech in the near future.

Later that night, Dora returned to his bed. It was a beautiful full moon night, the light of the star illuminating the room.

Dora tried to remember what had happened when a shadow moved across the dark.

Dora was worried at first, but as the shadows approached the moonlight, his eyes widened.

"Zuri?"
