"Yes, you did!"
The moment he appeared from the walls, the king waved his hands and everyone exited the room.
This person wore white robes with the symbol of the sun on his chest.
It was none other than Abel.
Abel materialized from the wall like he was going through a door.
He walked over to the crushed corpse in the centre of the throne room. Abel shook his head, " but It seems you are getting better."
"Better?" King Ash looked at him with a frown. Obviously, he still had some residual anger he did not vent.
"Yes, it's better now. If it were the old you, you would have not only killed him but also eaten his flesh in your rage."
King Ash heard this and it made him sigh. It was true. he did not use to feel satisfied until he had taken a piece of the person that roused his anger into his stomach.
Abel smiled a little, "Don't overthink it, dear king. It is just one of the problems with reaching the middle ranks and gaining power. It is not a big deal. With time, it will fade."
King Ash heard Abel's words and immediately stood to his feet, "Not a big deal!? Did you just say that it is not a FUCKING big deal? I had a deal with your church. You were supposed to help me get this FUCKING sin of Wrath under control!"
As he talked, his spiritual energy rushed out of his body in all directions. It was without target or aim. It was like a fire that wanted to consume all in its path. "as it stands, it seems that I might have done better staying under the rule of the zodiac houses," King Ash grabbed his head with his two hands and squeezed his hair hard. He had a confused look on his face, "This sin of Wrath is making me run mad!"
"And that is why I gave you those pills," Abel answered nonchalantly. "Just think of it. If I had not given you those pills, your palace would now be empty of maids, guards, and even your wife and children. You would be like the Mad king of the Vandoria kingdom several years ago. Your own kingdom will rebel against you and just like that one, you might have also died in a coup for the throne."
King Ash heard this and he calmed down a little.
What Abel had just said was true. This was the major reason why he had decided to join the Holy church and leave the zodiac families.
The holy church possessed medicine that could help tame and even extinguish the problems associated with entering the power realms of sin.
Some people had it easy with their Sins the moment they entered the Bronze rank, but for some others, it was like the problems of the world had landed on their shoulders.
The only thing such people think about is pleasing their Sin by engaging rapidly in it.
However, such an act could lead to being fatal.
The realms of Sin could never be satisfied, only be tamed. This was a popular saying that went around those in these realms.
However, the realm of Sin came with its unsatisfying hunger, pulling many mighty men to the ruin of their own hands.
They were many that fear this realm and the destruction it could bring, and for that reason, they decide it best to remain in the Copper rank.
For some others, their position in life left them no choice but to sort more power, going through the hardships of the realms of Sin.
Bronze rank, Silver Rank, Gold rank. With each rank, the Sin gets worse. Just like a bottomless abyss. The deeper one went, the darker it got.
But this was the only way to break out of the hold of mother nature in other to achieve power and if possible, immortality.
They were many that went into close door cultivation in other to get control of their Sin, and some others that go into the wild of mother nature in other to tame their urges.
After all, Danger sharpens the senses and builds the success of a cultivator.
In fact, going through the dangerous baptism of the wild was at one time considered the most effective method to tame the Sin of the Middle realms.
At least this was so until the Church came along with their pill.
Abel peeled his eyes from the mess of what used to be a person on the ground and then turned to King Ash. "Your case with your Sin of Wrath is quite a special one but it is not something that my Holy church has not seen or solved before." Abel suddenly turned, having a corny look on his face, "But the problem is that you will need time to quench the burning fire of your Sin."
"TIME!? you have been saying that same thing again and again for a long time now. How much time do I need? I have done everything your Holy church asked. I killed my father and submitted the kingdom to your rule. I have even started suppressing the worship of the old gods. Many of their temples, I have raided and destroyed. What else do you want FROM ME!?"
*WUSH!* His Spiritual energy went up again and he sent a blast of it Abel's way.
Abel waved his hand, extinguishing the burning Spiritual energy that blasted at him without much effort.
King Ash realized what he had done. His spiritual energy calmed down a little, "I'm sorry! forgive me."
Abel chuckled a little, "Don't worry, it's no problem. I understand. I too was once in your shoes," Abel talked with a sort of passion on his face, "I know what it's like to be in your shoes. To feel like your life, your sanity going all out of your control," as he talked, he walked over to King Ash's throne.
"To lose that which you love because of your own lack of a grip on yourself. But don't worry! I have your solution right here."
Abel waved his hand and a bottle containing some pills appeared before King Ash, "These pills are newly designed by our clergy. They were made specially because of your situation."
King Ash's eyes were immediately drawn to the bottle of pills. He instinctively reached for it, but before he could touch it, Abel pulled back a little.
"There is just one little thing you have to do."
King Ash knew that a request was going to come, but he could care less. After all, he was king. All he wanted was a grip on the chaos the Sin of wrath was causing in his life.
All he wanted was a grip on his own life.
"What do you want me to do?"
"It's really simple. After all, we have him close enough to kill him."
"Kill who?"
Abel came close as he whispered into the king's ear, "Chiron Chivalry!"
Abel smiled. "I remember General Chain had an elder brother. Revenge would be a good color on him don't you think?"
