Lilia responded, "What you need to understand is essentially a game created by certain gods. That's precisely the reason why they created the artifacts that grant their powers to the wielder of the artifact carrying their sin."
"But why would they do something like that?"
"I don't know, probably for their own amusement," Lilia said, raising her arms as if to show she had no idea.
"You see, this is precisely why I hate the gods. Everything is just a game to them; they don't take anything or anyone seriously!" Alex said, gritting his teeth in annoyance.
"Perhaps, but that won't stop people from participating in the Sin's Game. It might be a bloody game created for the amusement of the gods, however it's still an opportunity for those who dream of world domination."

He had to fight other people who possessed artifacts, but so what? Ever since the moment he had decided to seek vengeance for his father and become one of the overlords of this world, his path was one of conflict. A few more battles and confrontations wouldn't change much to his situation.
"Uhmm... Now that I think about it, how do artifact users recognize each other?"
"There's some kind of connection that links all of you together. The moment you meet someone with another artifact, you'll instinctively know."
"Okay, understood."
"Now that we've sorted that out..." Lilia took a deep breath and continued, "Let's talk about your potential future enemies"
