"Huh?" Reading the notification, Shiro blinked her eyes.

Seeing as how this appeared just as Yin finished her evolution, Shiro's smile started to twitch.

[As you are directly related to the seven sins title holder, you are allowed additional information.]

[There can and will always have 7 unique seven sin title holders. If they are killed, their title is transferred to the slayer. Seven sin users have additional influence over the demon realm and monsters with demonic properties.]

[Seven sin title holders are allowed to manifest their true self and register as a world boss, gaining increased stats. This can only be activated once every 5 months.]

[Due to Yin's traits, her race has changed to Phoenix of Gluttony. She retains her control over fire with some improvements. As her contractor, you gain a lesser form of the Seven Sin – Gluttony –]

[Entity – Shiro – Is granted the skill – Devour –]

[Devour]

You are able to consume the attacks of your enemies to regain missing health and mana. The more mana the attack contains, the more you recover. You may also eat materials but the conversion is weaker. If you consume something over your capacity, this skill will be sealed until you have 'digested' the attack.

Cooldown: N/A

Cost: N/A

Current Capacity is equal to 100% of mana.

Reading this skill, Shiro was silent. She knew that Yin was a glutton but she didn't expect her to be recognised as something akin to a world boss by the system. Right now, Yin is the only holder of a seven sin title since there hasn't been a case of this before which caused her to wonder who else might get the title in their part.

For Yin, she was always a glutton so that might have factored in her obtaining the title.

Thinking about this, Shiro couldn't help but wonder what her sin would be. She figured that she would probably be Wrath, Pride or Greed since there are large traces of these in her actions.

For Pride, she is too proud to serve someone as a subordinate. Even if the other party is a god. She has to be equal or higher. For greed, she wanted things her way. She was greedy for the outcome that was best in her eyes. She was greedy for strength.

And finally, wrath was pretty much self explanatory.

"Seems like Yin has finished her evolution." Nan Tian said as he glanced at the camera and the notification he had just received.

"Yup. I hope that there isn't a giant glowing target on Yin otherwise it'll be annoying." Shiro said as she face palmed.

Checking the camera, Shiro could see that Attie was cleaning up the situation while they were distracted by Yin's new form.

Understanding that they don't need her to look out for them, Shiro turned the camera elsewhere. She wanted to continue their search for a good levelling up zone. However, the moment she looked at the map, she noticed one of the medium to large mana zones suddenly disappear. Raising her eyebrow in surprise, Shiro had the camera reverse the footage.

"We're not levelling up quick enough." Lyrica frowned as she stabbed her sword into the skull of another monster.

"Well there's not much else we can do. The monsters all average around level 600. Anything higher than the peak of tier 5 is hard for us as a group. We've just levelled up to tier 5 while you're level 500 right now. Unless you can level up to tier 6 we can't look for anything harder." Asher reminded as Lyrica furrowed her brows.

Scratching her hair, she sighed and shook her head.

"Let's continue to the source of mana we discovered earlier. Hopefully we can find something to help me reach tier 6." Lyrica sighed.

She understood that she needs to find something that can help her push past the boundary of tier 6 but so that that something couldn't be found. Every time she tried to meditate to find that spark it was just darkness.

While they were making their way towards the large source of mana, they were ambushed a few times by tier 6 monsters that were no higher than level 600. Since she had killed quite a few of them, she racked up quite a few pseudo levels that helped put her roughly on the same level in terms of stats.

With her techniques and caution, killing them wasn't too difficult. But she knew that she couldn't do anything to Queens nor the being that took her parents away. She needed to reach tier 6 so that she was in the same tier as them.

Upon reaching the edge of the area where she sensed the mana, she could see mana being condensed into mist.

A strange liquid coated the surface of the ground as she recognised it to the be the same liquid as the mana potions that Shiro sold in her city.

Furrowing her brows, she was about to continue when she saw a notification.

[Seven Sins – Gluttony – has descended into this world.]

"Seven sins gluttony?" Lyrica muttered in mild confusion since she didn't think there was anything that would warrant the system to give out this kind of notification.

Focusing her mind, she stabbed her sword into the ground and sent her senses out.

Scanning past the country she was in, she continued to expand her search until she felt the familiar mana that was flaring wildly right now.

Recognising it to be the mana that belonged to Yin, she understood that Yin must have upgraded to tier 6.

Squeezing the hilt of her blade, she opened her eyes.

'So even Yin's reached tier 6 now.' She thought with a sigh.

"Let's keep going." She said as Asher nodded his head.

"Did you find who is tagged as Gluttony?" He asked curiously.

"Yes I do. It's Yin, the phoenix you met back in the city. She's managed to reach tier 6." Lyrica replied as they travelled deeper into the territory. When she scanned this place, she couldn't find any signal that might tell them about a monster being inside so the trip to the centre should be smooth sailing.

"Is that so, to think that she'll get a notification for levelling up. Do you think Nitha would get the same once she levels up to tier 6?" Asher asked as NItha blinked her eyes for a moment before shaking her head.

"Yin's level up is special I think. If every monster gets a notification then there would be thousands considering how many there are." Nitha said as Asher agreed.

Talking amongst themselves while travelling to the centre of the zone, Lyrica furrowed her brows as their surroundings distorted the closer they got to the centre.

She wasn't sure but it seemed as though they were walking deep into the Earth even though the path was flat.

The surroundings would darken until no light could be seen and yet the path was clear.

They've stopped talking by now since it was too strange. Floating stones acted as steps, senses were blocked from pushing past the darkness and only the sound of their steps could be heard.

"Maybe we should go back, this is a little too strange. Creating spells here is a little hard since the mana is making it mark for me to interfere with the world." Asher asked with a frown.

"Perhaps." Lyrica agreed since it was too strange.

However, just as they were thinking of turning back, they saw the exit of the steps.

Nodding at one another, they decided to have a look and discovered a strange world beyond the darkness. Even though they were deep underground, the sky could be seen but the colour was strange.

Pure black and yet the place was still lit. A single alter could be seen in the distance with a figure standing in front of it.

Turning around, the figure noticed them as they all entered combat stance.

Before they could react, a portal opened as the figure appeared in front of them.

"Who are you." Lyrica asked while gesturing for everyone to back off.

"Me? I'm a dragon. But that's not important, do you know how to open doors?" The 'dragon' asked as Lyrica raised an eyebrow in confusion since the man held no hostility towards them.

"What kind of door is it?"

"It's a door to this place called the Beyond but it doesn't seem like it lets me enter. If you do me a favour of opening this place, I'll count it as me owing you. I'll even make a vow if you can help me open it. It's a good opportunity for you since I'm a level 900 dragon. I can protect you if you run into trouble." The man smiled as he patted his chest.

Having some suspicions about this, she glanced back to see the party's choice when she noticed that Nitha didn't even dare to look up and understood that this man was probably being honest about being a level 900 dragon.

"If you're still concerned then I'll make a vow on not hurting you." He said as he blinked his eyes.

"That would be helpful." Lyrica nodded.

Watching the man vow to the system, she sighed in relief when the golden chains appeared, signifying the vow activating.

Sheathing her sword, she walked towards the alter.
