Chapter 8: Sword of Punishment

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Davis could know all of Liv’s thoughts through the soul contract.

When Davis saw her thoughts that he might be a demon god, he could not help but laugh in his heart.

“Your master is only at level five right now!”

Liv, who had already signed a contract with him, was already in his control.

He could take Liv’s life with just a thought.

Liv felt her breakthrough and quickly thanked him, “Thank… Thank you, Master, for your… gift.”

Davis was also very happy, but he still suppressed his joy and said faintly, “Okay, you can hide in Paradise Island first. I’ll wake you up if the need arises.”

On hearing that she had to continue living in fear there, Liv anxiously replied, “Master, I hope…I can return to your side and have the chance…to serve you!”

Davis naturally knew what Liv was thinking. A fallen angel living in an angel concentration camp on Paradise Island was like a husky hiding in a pack of wolves. Although they looked similar, their nature was still different.

Once they were discovered, their lives would definitely be in danger.

Liv felt that she was in danger of being exposed at any time, and she really did not want to be on the edge anymore.

However, Davis himself was hiding on Paradise Island, and he was in danger. How could he possibly ‘bring Liv out’?

Davis’s voice became cold and hard.

“You’re really too weak…”

After saying that, Davis did not care about Liv’s answer and prayer. He immediately cut off the spiritual connection between the two.

…

Days passed.

Ever since the matter of subduing Liv as a blood slave, he had broken through to become a principality angel… All those things were mere little interludes.

Davis once again returned to a peaceful and comfortable life.

He had already reached level five of a principality, and before he could obtain enough divine power and accumulate it, all Davis could do was to train his combat ability.

On this day, after Davis finished the work and training in his hands, he came to a place where no one was around.

He casually set up a few protective barriers to prevent his aura from leaking out.

“System, I want to check in today.”

[Ding! Check-in is successful. Congratulations to the host for obtaining an S-rank weapon, ‘Sword of Punishment’ (seal)!]

[Description: Sword of Punishment, a legendary artifact. Its predecessor was the demonic sword carried around by Greed. It contains tens of millions of the greediest demon souls in the world. Demon souls provide power for the demon sword, but the demon sword was later lost. When it reappeared, it was already broken, so the punishment angel smelted it and turned it into the Sword of Punishment.]

[Notification: once you sign the contract, your soul will belong to me! The demonic aura has not been purified, but it has been stored deep within!]

[Notification: whether your soul is defiled or not, only the holy sword can punish it! You would rather lose part of your strength to suppress the darkness!]

Davis looked at the description of the holy sword and was stunned.

Then, the space in front of him shook as if it was about to collapse. An aura that seemed to be both good and evil appeared.

Davis had a strange expression on his face as he looked at the sword in front of him. “The demon sword carried around by Greed? It has such a powerful history?”

That part of history could actually be found in the library.

According to the records, the judgment angel had died in the second great war between gods and demons.

At the same time, he was also the seraph who had killed the most enemies in that war.

However, he had disappeared in the final battle!

Davis happened to have obtained a legendary ‘holy sword’!

“It’s a coincidence that I was training my swordsmanship these past few days and got a sword as a result. I really can get whatever I want.”

A hint of excitement flashed across Davis’s face, and then he grabbed the hilt of the ‘Sword of Punishment’ ‘without any hesitation.

It was heavy and cold to the touch.

There was an abundant aura of light on it, but Davis could feel that it seemed to have a life of its own. He could clearly feel that there were traces of unstable rhythms within the sword.

Davis injected a trace of divine power of light into his hand.

The sword in his hand immediately began to release pure power of light. However, this kind of light did not make people feel warm. Instead, it was directed at the people’s hearts and was filled with the power of judgement.

Davis recalled the system notification again and restrained his angelic divine power.

Then, he spread his wings and switched the sword to his other hand.

He began to infuse the demon’s magic power…

“Hum… Pa!”

Seeing the magic power he injected, the demon god’s sword that was sealed in it had a reaction.

Although it was quickly suppressed by the light, it still explained a lot of problems.

Davis had long suspected that there were many strange things about his background, as if it was inextricably linked to the seven cardinal sins.

He saw that his magic power could trigger the reaction of the demonic sword. Although it was weak, he could still sense its obedience.

The origin of this sword was extraordinary. It was the personal sword of the Greed, specifically in places where the hierarchy of the hell bloodline was very strong. Therefore, the sword could not be triggered by any low-level demon unless it was a bloodline of the same level.

Greed used to be a hell demon god that was of a higher level than the twelve demon gods.

Pride, Jealousy, Wrath, Sloth, Greed, Gluttony, and Lust.

These seven most primitive desires ruled hell, and all living beings could not get rid of them…

Thinking that the other half of his bloodline was actually related to these seven demon gods, Davis felt a wave of strangeness in his heart.

It was both unbelievable and terrifying…

Soon, he had another suspicion after considering that problem!

“The demonic bloodline is very corrosive…

“If the other half of my body is the demonic bloodline…

“Then, what is the angel bloodline in my body related to?”

This made him frown and start thinking.

His demon god bloodline was so overbearing that it could not possibly coexist peacefully with an ordinary angel bloodline.

In other words, the angel bloodline in Davis’s body was also very high-level.

It could be on the same par as the demon god, competing against each other.

He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth of his background. This would probably be a big bomb that could trigger the three realms.

Gabriel, Michael, Raphael, and Uriel, the four strongest angels, did not discover that their base camp actually had traces of a demon god.
