Chapter 267 - Compatibility Check (1/2)
”Evan, the sixth demon of the Seven Princes of Hell, is Mammon, and he is matched with the sin that is Greed. Though unusual, you have one spell from the Mammon Chronicle. What's more, you can use your spells even though you haven't reached the Two-Pointed Star stage. That's further proof that it's more important to have a special body constitution than anything else to use these spells.
<He's right, I didn't even notice that I could cast Lucifer's Shackles and Mammon's Gaze when I was One-Pointed Star. Hmm, but I didn't find any grimoire. At one point, a strange space with Pillars and strange creatures appeared in my mind. They were the ones who gave me these spells.> Evan thought.
”When you use the Chronicle of Mammon, you feel a strong sense of Greed. If you succumb to it, you can miss a deadly attack or fall into a trap. But, in return, you get improved vision and reflexes. What's more, some spells elevate your vision to a whole other level.. Given your golden eye, your spell is exactly that.” Rave said calmly.
Evan nodded. He had already gotten an increase in his physical strength, vision, and reflexes when he received the Pillar. But, when he used the spells, these effects were amplified.
”The last, seventh demon of the Seven Princes of Hell is, you guessed it, Lucifer, and he corresponds to Sin - Pride. It's a dangerous power that can turn you into an overconfident fool who dies because of some stupidity. When you use the Lucifer Chronicles, your physical characteristics increase several times. But, you already figured that out.”
”Yes, I have a question. Do you know which of these demons is the strongest? Is there a clear hierarchy among the Seven Princes of Hell?”
Rave pondered, ”There is no clear definition, but from the information we have, some demons do stand above others. The strongest is Lucifer, then Satan, followed by Beelzebub, but there's no hierarchy beyond that. Moreover, each of these demons is incredibly strong. It all depends on the magician and his talent. Also, do not forget that there are also many other demons besides the main 'seven' in Seven Princes of Hell, and I can not say that they are weaker. They all have their differences.” Rave explained in detail.
<Hmm, each demon represents a sin. The black lion and the giant rat with the golden eyes represent the sin of Pride and the sin of Greed. Maybe they have something to do with the Seven Princes of Hell.> Evan thought.
He thought he had somehow gained the ability to acquire the unique spells of the Seven Princes of Hell. But, he had to go his way to discover them, because originally there was no rat in dark space, it came later under certain conditions.
<When I had both demonic and divine energy in my body at the same time, my body overloaded, and I died. But when my Warp cleared up, everything came back to normal. Is it possible that I got a special body constitution, or did I have it originally, and that's why I was able to survive?>
”Rave, you said that you don't know of anyone who could endure having demonic and divine energy in their body. But, how can you be so sure?”
