Chapter 13 - Sin Of Envy Task

Devon arrived at the library as early as possible, the voice in his head got mad at him and reduced the timeframe of the task to half a day.

After selecting a total of 27 books he was going to read. He found a place to seat and started reading.

After skimming through several books, and he still couldn't find something new most of them were repeating what he had already read.

Not until he picked up the last one, which was about the Mortal world.

Mortal World, it was said that the mortal world was like a bridge between The Underground World and The Demon World. Every time the ten thousand years battle happened the mortal world gets destroyed, hereby eradicating billions of innocent lives.

The remains of the human in the Mortal World were the ones who started everything back from scratch. The cycle repeated itself in each battle.

Each powerhouse generation that inherited its power from their ancestors had a mission which was to exterminate both the underground world and the demon world.

Tho the mortal world was void of any energy, it didn't mean they were hopeless. Most of them inherited the remains of God's lineage while the others came from the Underground world.

But only one family or organization was always tasked with the responsibility of eradicating both worlds which were the.....

"Ding"

"Congratulation on completing the Main Task."

Devon dropped the book down and heaved a sigh of relief, not even bothering to read the rest of the book.

"Contractor, please pick a number from 1 to 7."

Devon made a weird face, first, there was no reward for completing that task, and now you are asking me to pick a number what the heck is this.

"Okay, okay, I pick number 3."

"Sin of... The sin of....."

"Sin of envy task assigned."

*Congratulation you have now fully signed a deal with the Devil.

"So what the fuck have I been doing since."

"Introductory task."

Devon clenched his fist, how dare you call that introductory task I almost lost my life in that mission, and I was also told to read 50 books. If possible, he wanted to smash the voice in his head.

".... Alright, isn't there suppose to be like an attribute that I can use to check my stat."

" Name: Devon Reid (House of Sinners)

Level: Level 1 (you're so weak that even a chick in the Ancient days can kill you)

Race: Half-Human (isn't that disappointing)

Energy Level: Cosmic Energy 1 (2/10)

Task point: 50

"Is the insult necessary? And how did I become a half-human."

"Oh, oh, am I some kind of Hybrid? Hahahahaha I always knew I was born great."

"Pufffftttttt you wish."

And all of Devon's excitement died in a heartbeat.

"Task Assigned: Kill Josh Allen (Level 10) of the outer compound.

Task Timeframe: 1 month.

"The Main task is divided into 7 different sin levels, each sin level as its sets of reward and also their side quest. After completing a task, the contractor will be given task points which can be used to purchase weapons, manuals, special abilities, and also to upgrade attributes."

"Voice, I get motivated when I know the reward I'm going to get after completing a Task."

"Reward: Ability to absorb celestial energy and Body regeneration."

TimeFrame remaining: 20 days.

Devon left the library, he knew it was pointless arguing with the voice, so he gave up on it.

Walking around the main compound with a mask on and his hands behind his back, Devon was thinking of how he was going to kill someone in the alliance as it was prohibited and how to enter the outer compound.

..... Also, how do you kill someone of level 10 while you are still in Level 1 within 20days?

"Okay, Okay, the first thing I need is to get an outer compound emblem."

Devon murmured to himself while bringing out the map he requested from his maid. All the families and organizations in the Underground world had something in common, which was called the Black Market.

For instance, the only way to get into the Main compound was by using either a High tier or Core tier member emblem. The black market was a place where one could get the emblem to enter any of the compounds. It sold different items as long as one could afford the money.

Devon went to his house, changed into a different attire and also a new mask, and went straight to the market.

Thanks to the map, Devon arrived at the Black market at dusk. It was like how a regular market was, people were moving all around with masks on, no one was putting on their regular attire.

The Emblem shop...

"Hello, who is here?"

Someone walked out of the shop, the person was also putting on a mask but one could tell it was a female.

"This is the emblem shop, how may we help you, sir."

Devon looked at the attendant for a moment, that voice sounded familiar considering he had just met five women ever since he arrived at the Alliance who could it be.

"I need an Outer compound Emblem."

The woman went inside the shop and brought the emblem out of a pure white one.

"That would be 5,000 gold coins, sir."

Devon looked at her to see if she was joking with him but after not getting a reply for a long time he knew she wasn't.

"Whattttttttttt!!!!!!!!"

"I can buy an estate with that money, why don't you people just start robbing what the heck."

As a core tier member, he gets paid weekly, but the money was just a small change because he wasn't eligible to go out for missions.

It couldn't cover a quarter of the amount the woman said.

"I'm sorry sir, but that's the price we sell it."

The woman remained polite even after that, but I'm sure she had an angry face right there.

*Ding

"Task point could be turned into money."

"Why didn't you tell me that earlier."

"Contractor didn't ask."
