The supreme sovereign system

[Back in the Underworld]

Alfonso, Cerberus, and Lucy were currently in an old room.

"Okay guys, my part of the deal ends here, you should be safe in this room, I already pay for one night, whatever you do now is your business" Said Lucy.

"Yeah, thanks a lot, Lucy" Said Alfonso.

Cerberus looked at Lucy.

"Can I ask you something?" Said Cerberus.

"What is it?" Asked Lucy.

"How did you end here?" Asked Cerberus.

"I die? Live everybody else?"

"You know I am not talking about that, what I mean is, how did you end in THIS circle?" Asked Cerberus.

"What do you mean?" Asked Alfonso.

"People are sent to each circle depending on two factors"

"The first one and the most unusual one is strength, however, only will users be able to access this \'benefit\'" Said Cerberus.

"What do you mean by benefit?" Asked Alfonso.

"Champions that get send here lost their gift from the gods and become regular people, on the other hand, will users retain their former powers, of course, they fade away with time, nevertheless, they are given with the choice of choosing which circle do they want to go, of course, I don\'t think that there is a human capable of entering further than the four circle"

"Even an emperor won\'t be able to stand a candle in the fifth circle" Said Cerberus.

He turned to look at Lucy.

"As he says, there has only been one human in all history that managed to get to the circle, usually, will users choose the third circle" Said Lucy.

"But why? why should they go to a harder circle instead of staying here that is safer?" Asked Alfonso.

"Because of the death soul aura" Said Cerberus.

"As I said before, the further you go down, the dead soul aura becomes thicker and the will users can use this aura to become stronger and stronger" Said Cerberus.

"To what point? What is the point of becoming stronger?" Asked Alfonso.

"To get to the fifth circle" Said Lucy.

"What is in the fifth circle?"

"A way out of hell" Said Lucy.

"What!?" Alfonso was stunned.

"It\'s just a legend, there is no way that there can be a way out of here" Said Lucy.

"I think that you think there is a way" Said Cerberus to Lucy.

The atmosphere became thicker and Lucy and Cerberus looked at each other.

"Cerberus, what is going on?" Asked Alfonso.

"You see Alfonso, the other way that people go to each circle it\'s by their sin" Said Cerberus.

"Their sin?"

"Humans sin all their lives, however, there is always a predominant sin in each of them, depending on which, they are sent to each circle"

This time Cerberus showed a sarcastic smile.

"And their whole purpose in their life is to satisfy that sin… until the end of time"

He started to walk towards Lucy.

"We are in the circle of gluttony"

"But you haven\'t once even showed the minimum interested in anything"

"And your little story about how you can tolerate your hunger?"

"That\'s a lie" Said Cerberus.

"…" Lucy didn\'t say anything.

"Cerberus, stop it" Said Alfonso.

Cerberus didn\'t listen to Alfonso and he stopped just a few centimeters away from Lucy.

"Your sin is greed, isn\'t it?" Said Cerberus.

"What? Just because I ask for money? Should I have asked you for food instead?" Said Lucy with sarcasm.

"No, it\'s not because of that" Said Cerberus.

"It because… what are you doing with the coins" Said Cerberus.

Lucy furrowed.

"At first, I thought that you were going to buy something in the restaurants here… that would make sense, instead… you gave them away" Said Cerberus.

"Nobody will give golden coins just to stay in one room, not in the circle of Gluttony at least" Said Cerberus.

"You are not making any sense" Said Lucy.

"Cerberus, enough" Said Alfonso.

"But Alfonso…"

"We don\'t pay kindness with ungratefulness" Said Alfonso.

He smiled and stood up.

"I don\'t know the reason why are you helping us, but I appreciate it" Said Alfonso.

"…" Lucy didn\'t say anything else.

She turned around and left the room.

"You know that she is lying to us, right?" Said Cerberus.

"She is not a bad girl" Said Alfonso.

"But…"

"We are in a foreign land, we make friends no enemies, okay?" Said Alfonso.

"Okay…" Said Cerberus.

Alfonso looked at his surroundings and smiled bitterly.

"But I must say… these walls… why are they so red… they are like stains of blood" Said Alfonso.

"I don\'t want to say this, so I will just say that there is no paint in the underworld" Said Cerberus.

"…." Alfonso was speechless.

..........................................…��.................................

Lucy went out of the inn and looked around. A shadow appeared in an alley.

Lucy looked at the shadow and walked towards the alley.

She entered the alley and stopped a few meters away from the shadows.

"Give me back what is mine" She said.

"Ha"

A smile came from the shadow and he tossed something to the floor.

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

The coins fell to the ground and Lucy almost throws herself to the ground to pick them.

She took a deep breath and slowly picked up the coins.

"You are scum" Said Lucy.

"You are not better than me" Said the shadow with a smile.

Lucy didn\'t answer and turned around.

"Your sister says hi~" Said the shadow in a playful tone.

Lucy stood in place.

"Don\'t be so arrogant just because we are in your playground" She said.

In a second, two pairs of black wings appeared on her back!

��If we were in my circle, your puny existence wouldn\'t even be able to breathe the same air as mine!" A distorted voice that seemed to be a fusion between an old and young woman!

The shadow backed up a little, however, in a second, he regained his composure.

"You are not in your circle, if anything happens to me, your sister\'s fate is-"

"SHUT UP!" Shouted Lucy.

In a moment, space seems to distort and the shadow fell a huge pressure on him.

"UGH!" Blood began to fell from the mouth of the shadow.

Just as he was about to say anything, the pressure stopped and Lucy\'s wing disappeared.

She didn\'t turn and walked away from the alley.

The shadow fell to the ground and laughed bitterly.

"Indeed, trying to get advantage of the Queen of Darkness is impossible"
