"Because of professional ranks?"
"Yes, Extraordinary, Paragon, Legendary, Demigod, on Star Continent, the occupational ranks that can be reached are only these first four levels, and each level can accommodate only one sin.
That kid Louis's current professional rank theoretically can only accommodate two sins, but from the beginning of Extraordinary, he had two sins coexisting inside."
"There's no gain without a reason. For that child to bear two sins from the start, either he's paid so unknown price, or..."
The Emperor chuckled, "Soone paid the price for him, just like with his authority over the Book of the Dead."
The Curse Binding Legion is a legion born under the influence of compound type authority; their combat power inflation cos from the power extension of the Sin of Fury, and their revival ability cos from the authority of the Mad King's Book of the Dead.
The combination of these two authorities is what ultimately ford the current Curse Binding Legion.
In fact, the Emperor had already co into contact with the authority of the Book of the Dead.
This authority originates from controlling part of the power of the Shadow Realm, bestowing the characteristics of shadow beings to the dead.
It could be said that if the Emperor chose to accept this authority, then nothing more needed be said but to plunge into the abyss and transform into the God of Shadow and Destruction.
This was sothing he absolutely could not accept.
The Shadow Realm is ultimately a collection of negative energies, which, for soone already overwheld, is a deadly poison.
However... letting this authority slip away was even more unacceptable to him.
He glanced at Louis, "This guy, really, wherever he goes, soone helps him. But it's also because of this that he has the chance to step on that path, right..."
The Emperor slowly closed his eyes, and in an instant, the world of dreams began to surge.
When Louis ca back to his senses, he had already left his original place and arrived at a royal court.
"Where is this?" He curiously looked around and then looked at the Emperor.
The Emperor said, "The cage I built for myself."
"Uh...!"
Old Deng really had it rough.
For soone once the strongest in history to beco like this, it's really too miserable.
But soon his face changed, he quietly moved closer to the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, it's not fair of you to set people up like this."
Newcor arrived in this "cage."
Or more accurately... the mother-in-law ca.
Goodness, what is this about?
A mixed doubles match?
"Don't worry, they can't beat you up yet." Diana said with a smile.
Louis muttered in his heart, "They can't beat up yet, so they will later?"
He felt a bitterness inside.
But then he changed his perspective, and a smile tugged at his lips.
No matter, Olivia will make a move.
Oh no, he will make a move against Olivia!
The little swan is in a dire state at the mont because of a mistake, she can't lift her head around Louis.
But she didn't lose out either, Louis caught her small secret, and she caught his big one.
Uh... talking about accidentally catching the entire royal family in one go this generation.
Diana's mouth twitched slightly above.
She's not the "heartless" Emperor; as Louis's mother, she couldn't see what he was thinking?
"I decide to take back the 'yet' part." Diana turned to look at the Emperor, he closed his eyes saying nothing, pretending he heard nothing.
Diana smiled with satisfaction and used a [ntal Imprisonnt] to lock Louis down.
Louis imdiately felt sothing was wrong: "Princess Consort! Lady Diana... I was wrong!"
"Calling 'mom' won't help you!" Diana dragged the unresisting Louis away.
Louis rolled his eyes and shouted, "Mom, take it easy, your daughter will be heartbroken!"
Whether it's Bea, Olivia, or the black swan... you have to think it through carefully.
Do you acknowledge your daughter or not?
Don't even try to deny it.
In the end, this word softened the heart of the mother-in-law.
In an unknown corner, a cry that seed like soone pleading for rcy echoed.
The Emperor pretended to know nothing, sitting quietly on the golden throne.
This cold golden throne used to bring him imnse pain, but today he found it quite agreeable to sit there.
"Diana, stop hitting him; this way you won't beat him to death."
The sound of beating in the corner paused for a mont, then beca even stronger.
... Monts later...
Louis stood with his back straight in front of the Emperor, looking as if nothing had happened.
If his legs weren't shaking, and his tail wasn't drooping lifelessly, it would have been perfect.
"You two continue your conversation, I've got things to attend to over there."
A refreshingly bright Diana left with a smile, leaving behind the father-in-law who couldn't stand up, and Louis with a face saying "continue the music."
The scene made Old Deng emotional.
It had been a long ti since he had the urge to punch soone.
"Why don't you co up here, and I'll throw a punch too?" The Emperor eagerly suggested.
Louis sneered angrily, "You think I won't run away right now?"
"Can you escape?" The Emperor sneered, "If this were a hundred years ago, I'd have directly smashed you with a chessboard."
Louis laughed heartily, the Emperor must have known about the story he told the Sean couple about the "Ense Chess Saint," using it to scare him!
So he said outright, "Could it be that Your Majesty will also shout 'There are regular moves, wonderful moves, and basic moves in Go. If soone insults the Empire, we'll overturn the board so they see what a devious move is'?
How could anyone have killed the Duke's son when they were still the Crown Prince, Your Majesty, that was just a story I made up."
The Emperor said nothing, the Emperor smiled silently.
Louis: ...
No way, Old Deng, why look at with a smile? Deny it quickly!
"Ahem~" Soone in the shadow couldn't take it anymore, "His Highness Louis, don't speak carelessly about things you shouldn't."
Louis: ...
That's when he realized there was soone in the shadow.
Terrifying stealth skills.
Looking at the equipnt, it was clearly the Forbidden Guard that hadn't ventured outside in years.
It's well known... the Forbidden Guard doesn't need to be loyal to the Emperor.
That's sothing only the legion outside needs to worry about.
The significance of the Forbidden Guard is to protect the Emperor.
— In other words, the one who knows most about the inside story in the entire Imperial City was right there in front of him.
"Wow~"
He wasn't foolish, the aning dawned on him instantly.
He awkwardly looked at the Emperor, "Your Majesty, you know, I wasn't cursing you just now, right..."
The Emperor revealed a cruel smile, "My good son-in-law, do you have any last words?"
"Do you think I have a chance?"
"Are you kidding?"
... Afterwards...
Louis expressed that he was indeed very important to the Empire.
Didn't you see how angry Old Deng was, and yet... it was just... a beating that left him bruised and swollen.
Small problem, all small problems!
Louis said he had wanted to try healing magic that day, the one he learned from the little swan's cries.
Except that it used to be for treating the main wife and sister-in-law, now it's for healing himself.
"Alright, stop ssing around." The Emperor said, looking at Louis, "There's a problem with that Sin of Jealousy, I suggest you spend so ti investigating it."
"Of course there's a problem, that's the enemy." Louis said without hesitation, "Give another chance, I'll find a way to blow him up."
The Emperor shook his head, "The problem isn't there, your Wrath started from scratch based on your needs, but a significant part of the Sin of Wrath's power is still on Jealousy's side; haven't you noticed anything?"
Louis furrowed his brow, sensing sothing awry.
The Emperor said, "Do you think you absorbed the power of the King of Fury first, indirectly through the Book of the Dead authority, or did the Sin of Jealousy absorb the King of Fury first?"
Louis hesitated, "Technically, it should be first, since the King of Fury's body was only consud afterwards."
But the Emperor said, "But don't forget, given the situation of the Giant Demon Tribe, except for during the most turbulent tis when internal order couldn't be maintained, how did a re Jealousy without elevated powers bypass the Giant Demon Tribe's defenses?"
Louis sighed, "What you said makes sense, but what does it prove?"
The Emperor smiled strangely, "Louis, based on the form of existence shared from you, it's evident that the King of Fury actively relinquished himself to accept your sharing.
But shares happen in order, and if it was you first, it ans the King of Fury fully supported you in eradicating the poison of the Giant Plain, even at the cost of his life.
But if it wasn't you first... then the target to whom the King of Fury actively surrendered his shared existence was quite possibly not you, but the Jealousy lurking within the Giant Demon Tribe at the ti."
Louis paused, cold sweat trickling down.
