Battle Royale of the Sinners

Chapter 164

Chapter 164 - [SLOTH] - Part 2

For half a day, Tong did nothing but push-up . He also lost count of how many he did as he stopped counting since the 5th session .

Tong already threw away his robes, leaving only his pants on . His smooth and toned upper body was drenched in sweat after the stressful work-out . Several young maids peeked at Tong from a distance as their face blushed, while the male servants looked at Tong in awe .

Tong ignored the onlookers and was about to start a new session .

*BADUMP*

The heart of Tong shook . The familiar sensation came back again . It was the feeling of that day when he successfully got rid of his [Lust] .

The sensation of his body splitting into two came back . His vision also changed, he could see himself from a third person's viewpoint again .

Learned from the previous experience, Tong managed to control his original body with a little effort . He turned around to look at his demonic soul [Sloth] .

This soul was not the same as [Lust] . Instead of a naked woman, it was an old man in a brown police uniform . His appearance was an Asian man with a height of 185cm . His muscle was neither too thick nor floppy, it was the shape of someone who worked out daily but he was not at a level of a professional muscle builder . The wrinkles on his body told Tong his age, he should have been in his 70s or 80s by his appearance .

Tong remembered his face very well . It was the face of his previous life when he was living in the modern world, but it was his older version . If he had not died young in his previous life, he would have looked like the demon soul in front of Tong when he got older .

The police uniform was also the uniform that he usually wore at work . In addition, Tong could see the insignias on the soul's shoulder and several emblems on the chest . The insignia of Chief Inspector could be seen which it was his career goal when he was working as a police officer .

Tong looked at his demon soul with a bitter smile . Nostalgic memories and forgotten memories flooded out from the depths of his mind .

The time when he took the entrance examination .

The time when he got into the boot camp the first day .

The time when he got punched by a drill sergeant as part of the training .

The time when he graduated from the police school as the top ace of the platoon .

The time when he saluted to the tearing drill sergeant who used to beat him with pride .

The day when he apprehended a criminal for the first time .

The memories of his police days came back . Tong could now recall the events of his police life from day one to the end of his journey when he was killed by Ping's bodyguards .

"Looking back, I could have done it better…"

"If I were a bit calmer, I could have put that matter to the international court . "

"I could have sought asylum in other country and asked for help in the social world . "

"…"

"But at the very least, I was never lazy at all, right?"

"I worked very hard for it, right?"

The demon soul gave Tong a warm smile, even though it was himself who smiled at his original body . Tears rolled down from Tong's both eyes as his spirit was cleansed from the past regret .

Tong had not noticed yet, two small black tentacles at the size of a finger wrinkling behind his back . It was the same color and shape with what Morning Star had .

…

Tong texted Dong Bai again . "I've completed [Sloth] . What can I do with it?"

As usual, Hua Shi and Li Feihong spammed the chat with their nonsense . However, Dong Bai was mature enough to answer him properly .

"Move him into your body for now . Once it gets inside, the two bodies will move together so it will be easier for you to handle . If you have free times, you can practice moving two bodies at once . It's similar to playing piano or writing a circle and a star simultaneously with both hands . "

"By the way, that was freaking too fast! Were your previous life a monk!? [Lust] and [Sloth] are one of the hardest sins to overcome! How the heck can you get them so fast!?"

Reading Dong Bai's reply, Tong had an inspiration . He ignored Dong Bai's retort and asked her again .

"Can my demon soul use my system skill?"

It took a second for Li Feihong and Hua Shi to scream in the chat again . They want Tong to demonstrate the "ZA WARUDO" skill with his [Sloth] .

"Shouldn't you ask the system? I don't know everything, you know?"

Tong slapped his forehead . "Oof"

"System, you heard us . Can my soul use the system skill?"

[… Yes, but the skill cost will be ten times the normal rate . ]

"Da hack! Why is that!?"

[It involves an exploit you can do with the souls . It won't be fair to others if I tell you everything . To be honest, I want to keep this a secret . But since you're working so hard, I can tell you . But with a condition . You will have to complete some extra missions from me . ]

Tong shook his head without thinking . Why would he trust the system who was trying to kill all reincarnators in this world? Besides, a mission from the system could be something troublesome or risky . He could not afford to gamble with the sinister administrator .

"I refuse . I won't take a mission from you . "

[My dear, I haven't finished yet . In exchange for that, I'll teach you how to control your souls and better tips for reigning your rampaging sins . I have a much better way than sacrificing one of your soul to seal your future . ]

"What do you mean?"

[That demon girl, I meant the ex-demon, was only a four-winged . She can't possibly be more knowledgeable than a senior with more wings, right?]

Hearing about wings, Tong came to a pause . Dong Bai mentioned it earlier today, but he did not ask her further about the details . Tong guessed that it should connect with the number of sins ones overcame .

"What's the connection between wings and sins?"

[You should have already guessed it . The number of wings the immortals have is the number of sins they cleansed . You have cleansed [Lust] and [Sloth], so you have now two wings! Congrats, little devil!]

Hearing that he had two wings, Tong touched his back again . He could feel small branches of tentacle on his back . The moment his fingers squeezed them, a sharp pain ran through his back . It felt like he exploded a zit on his back by accident .

"Shit! Ouch! What the hell!?"

[I suggest you return your soul into your body for now . If you leave him outside, your wings won't go back into the body . Besides, you have been talking to me in front of the onlookers for a while now . They might think you've gone crazy . ]

Tong looked around by reflex . The servants and maids were indeed looking at him in shock and fear . They could see the old man in the police uniform, and they mistook the soul as a ghost . Furthermore, Tong had been talking alone for a while, so they thought he was conversing with the ghost .

Realizing what happened around him, Tong ordered everybody out .

"Everybody, leave me alone for now! And also don't tell anyone about this!"

With the words, all onlookers dispersed in a hurry . Tong had to recheck with his radar map again to ensure nobody was still around .

Fortunately, the servants were obedient as no one dared to sneak around to eavesdrop him .

Tong controlled his demon soul to enter his body . It was still too hard for him to control both bodies at the same time . For such a simple task, it took him five minutes to complete .

After his soul entered the body, his vision changed again . When he gazed to the distance, he could see everything clearer . Tong tested his sight on the tree leaves 50 meters away, and he could notice a line of ants on the tree .

His hearing also got sharper . The sound of wind, bugs, birds, and the servants at the distance away could be heard .

Tong concentrated more to feel everything around him . Suddenly, everything turned into slow motion . His brain processed the data from his five sense so fast that he thought he had activated his [Time Stop] skill .

He observed everything in a daze for a minute before he could feel a sharp pain inside his brain . Blood slowly dripped down from Tong's nose as he overclocked his brain for too long .

'Holy Hell, am I a spiderman now?'

Instead of getting shocked by the pain, Tong was excited by the new experiences . </your></your></your></your></your></you>
