"Why are you staring at ? Eat so food."
Louis wanted to say this to the people around him, but in the end, he didn't speak up.
The words of Emperor Lokeshi contained too much information, leaving him montarily unable to react.
But one thing was certain, the Lokeshi Empire had once possessed the power of the seven deadly sins, and this period was not far in the past.
Beatrice, standing beside him, looked cautiously at Tal Griffin and said, "I hadn't heard that you had contact with the deadly sin of envy."
Tal sighed and said:
"If you all knew about this, we would have to suspect that one of the heads of the thirteen families might have an unstable position."
Louis spoke in a deep voice, "Can you explain the situation?"
The emperor pinched his brow, as if pondering how to explain the matter.
After a long ti, he looked at the cardinal of the Church of the God of Justice.
"Use the power of the holy emblem to verify whether what I'm saying is a lie."
A few deities of the church have the ability to discern lies, and the priests of the Church of Glory and Justice are the earthly representatives of the god, possessing the sa ability.
The cardinal nodded, took out the holy emblem, pinned it to his chest, and placed his hand on it: "Your Majesty, please go ahead."
Tal spoke calmly:
"The top nations have never stopped researching the power of the seven deadly sins, Ense is no exception, and neither are we."
"The related research we conducted 25 years ago achieved phased results, giving birth to a special individual in the laboratory who could use the power of the deadly sin of envy."
Louis exclaid, good heavens.
He was familiar with related records of the White Tower.
The direction of the White Tower's research at the ti focused on the most stable of the deadly sins, greed.
— Louis seriously suspected that they had obtained so secret intelligence, learning about the news of the last Elf King of the Supre Forest.
He learned from Master rlin that the last ruler of the Elf Realm was the embodint of the deadly sin of envy.
But his elder brother willingly gave up his own life, allowing envy to devour greed and disguised himself as the host of the deadly sin of greed, operating openly in the world.
As for why the younger brother devoured the elder instead of vice versa, Master rlin's conclusion was that the elder brother of the Elf King was more powerful. Once the coexistence of gluttony occurred, the younger brother's power would mainly follow the elder brother's [greed], inevitably suppressing [envy].
But there was a small point worth noting.
Envy is harder to control than greed.
Even if other hosts of the deadly sins devoured envy, it would only an possessing part of that authority, not necessarily controlling it as easily as their own inherent sin.
From the perspective of power level, both the elder brother's greed and the younger brother's envy were at the sa level.
But just because the younger brother could resist the more uncontrollable envy didn't an the elder brother could resist envy.
Even if the elder brother was powerful at the ti, he might rapidly fall if he bore envy.
And then...
With a bang.
Everything was over.
Conversely, although the younger brother was weak, he could manage the more uncontrollable envy, which at least alleviated so of the burden of greed on the operational level.
So Master rlin said the optimal choice given by the Elf Realm at that ti was for the younger brother to devour the elder brother.
But the final decision to execute this plan was up to the elder brother of the Elf King, the actual next heir of the Elf Realm.
—After all, he was stronger than his younger brother.
After mutual compromise, the "younger eats elder" event was created.
Pride＞Envy=Lust＞Wrath＞Gluttony＞Greed=Sloth
This was the ranking of the difficulty in controlling the different deadly sins among the seven deadly sins.
This ranking was asured by a myriad of experints conducted by the Elf Realm at that ti.
It's known that in this generation, Pride, Emperor Lao Deng himself is a natural sin.
And so is the current Pope of Gluttony.
Louis had learned from the forr Grand Chief of the Curse Binding Legion that the King of Fury had manifested the power of the deadly sins over forty years ago.
The birth of the little swan dates back even further.
Strictly speaking, she was much older than Beatrice, but for unknown reasons had been in a prolonged slumber.
When taking the current age of the little swan into account, her tiline of becoming the sin of sloth should be before that of the King of Fury.
This opened up many mysteries.
Louis looked up at Emperor Tal:
"Lord Tal, pardon my interruption, but may I ask, why did you choose envy back then?"
Tal sighed and said, "It wasn't that we chose envy, but that we had no choice but to choose envy."
"What do you an by that?"
Tal said, "Pride, Gluttony, and Sloth, these three deadly sins, were already born before we started any experints, rendering them pointless to research against."
Louis nodded.
Reasonable! Exactly as he thought.
Looking at the tiline, these three deadly sins clearly were born in the order of Gluttony (Pope) ＞ Pride (Emperor) ＞ Sloth (Little Swan).
Even the latest which is the birth of Little Swan, was sothing that happened over ninety years ago.
From the Mad King's mories, it can be seen that before the dawn of the dark side of the Love God, Princess Diana was already pregnant with the Little Swan.
However, due to so reason, the Little Swan hadn't appeared in the royal family until 22 years ago, when Beatrice was born and was known as her younger sister.
"You couldn't choose Wrath, could you," Louis added, "The forr Grand Chief said the King of Fury was active over forty years ago, so you must have been aware of it when you began your experints."
Tal nodded, admitting helplessly, "Yes, the experints concluded 25 years ago, but actually comnced 37 years ago. At that ti, despite not knowing the Giant Demon Tribe obtained Wrath, we had observed four kinds of deadly sins consolidating in the Star Continent."
