The moment I devoured the Deadly Sins and Heavenly Commandments at the same time was when my soul started to mutate, my power began to surge as if I were about to burst like a balloon!

Each sin and commandment had the size of the Sin of Lust, and were some kind of Super-Skill, resembling giant spheres of darkness for sins, and light for commandments.

They began to wrestle against each other, even as my power now, they were still battling!

It was as if my own power was trying to destroy itself…

I needed to quickly calm myself down, and process their immense power!

I was dragged into my own soul, as I met them again.

Lust and Greed appeared at my side to help me, and I began to drag the Sins around.

Although I ate them and are part of myself, it is as if they were trying to run away from me… It was as if your own skeleton was trying to get off your body!

That was the feeling I was having!

Not even when I ate Gods was there such a feeling of discomfort!

Does this mean that Sins and Commandments have some kind of power that transcends the laws of this world themselves?

Perhaps the requirements to acquire them, which makes them reject those that have not met their requirements…

Although Greed resisted at first, I suppressed and refined it by showing it my greed…

Oh wait, can't I do the same with every one of them then?

I managed to refine Greed by forcefully eating it with my soul multiple times, Lust also put some help, and then I just showed him how greedy I was, and it gave up at the end…

Is this how you refine Sins and Commandments?!

Then I gotta get to it straight away!

Let's do the easiest ones then!

Which ones, you may wonder?

Lust and Greed!

I already have them, and these second Lust and Greed should be easy to suppress as long as I show them their copies!

I quickly flew with my ethereal avatar towards Lust and Greed with my own Lust and Greed, both copies of my sins were wandering around aimlessly.

Lust was shooting pink rays everywhere, fighting chastity.

Meanwhile, greed was trying to steal the power of Charity…

Each Sin and Commandment were fighting their counterparts… I have to hurry, or they might end up killing each other and that will be a big waste for me!

I flew towards Lust first, infusing the power of Lust and Greed into my Ethereal Body and coating myself with Chaos Aura and Lust Aura!

Lust immediately noticed me as it tried to run away!

Where are you going?!

I flew towards it as fast as possible, and then extended my Auras towards it, using Greed to activate Plunder!

Flash!

Suddenly my entire aura transformed into an enormous and greedy claw, grasping Lust!

Lust tried to resist as much as possible, using its powers to brainwash me or something.

Well, tough luck, that does not work on me, bud!

I was Lust before you even came to existence, and now, you will be mine too!

I grasp Lust with all of my power, and I activate my own Lust, coupled with my soul's Uroboros!

Now, Lust, devour it!

Lust suddenly opened enormous maws made of darkness, chomping all over the other Lust, until it was completely eaten!

My original Lust began to tremble as if it gained a new power!

Well, you devoured another Sin equally as strong as you, so I guess you really did become stronger!

Maybe it will become something like Neo Lust? No, that sounds stupid.

Flash!

The only thing I know is that Lust began to grow even larger and more spherical, covering itself in purple and pink colors!

[Kireina] acquired the [Deadly Sin of Lust]!]

[Kireina]'s [Deadly Sin of Lust] has been merged with your newly acquired [Deadly Sin of Lust]!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Chaotic Sin of Luxuria]!]

Oh?

So when a Sin… fuses with another of the same type, they evolve into… Luxuria? I do have a Class named Luxuria and also a Skill named like that…

The power of Luxuria now fuses with me, as I feel like even more power rushes through my veins… This is an even greater feeling than eating all those Gods!

I then glance at Greed, my next target, with all this new Sin power coursing through my ethereal avatar, I reach it in a second!

Hello, die!

I grab it with my own Greed power, it resists a lot, but I ultimately eat the bastard, my own Greed seemed to be very happy because it immediately began to glow similar to how Lust did!

It became larger and more spherical, and instead of just darkness, there were also a lot of dark blue colors mixed into it, and even a pair of large horns!

Every time I see these things, I wonder what Deadly Sins are even.

Hey are Skills, yet they are like this, and the power they possess is as strong as the laws of this world to an extent…

However, there is no time to think any of that, I immediately continue to absorb the new power of Greed, until a new change finally occurs!

[Kireina] acquired the [Deadly Sin of Greed]!]

[Kireina]'s [Deadly Sin of Greed] has been merged with your newly acquired [Deadly Sin of Greed]!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Chaotic Sin of Avaritia]!]

Avaritia?

I see, so this is it!

I just acquired Greed yesterday and now it has even evolved!

The new Greed, Avaritia, fuses with my soul and my Ethereal Avatar, giving me even greater power!

W-Woah, this feels like eating a bunch of Thanatos together!

Talk about power creep, this is insane!

I quickly glance at Charity who was trembling at my side, it was intimidated by my new powerful Chaotic Sins or something!

Good for me!

And sucks to be you!

I grabbed Charity with all of my power, it resisted by showering me with light, but that was not enough for me!

I began to quickly refine it, putting all of my power into it and… something else!

My own memories, all the times I have shared power and wealth to help those beloved to me!

See, Charity? I am not actually a one-sided character, I actually am quite caring of people!

So become my power!

Charity stops trembling, as it lets itself be devoured and then refined again!

Flash!

[Kireina] acquired the [Heavenly Commandment of Charity]!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Heavenly Commandment: Charity] Title!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Awakened Commandment of Charity] Title!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Heavenly Commandment of Charity Arts: Level 1] Skill!]

Flash!

A brilliant white light engulfs my entire soul, as the power of Charity curses through my entire existence…!

Up until this moment, I have only had Sins… but a Heavenly Commandment feels both as strong and different too!

It is as if their whole concepts were different, yet, it is also part of how I am…

Perhaps if I had chosen to stay alone in this world, perhaps if I had chosen to never have a family or allies, I might have never been able to acquire this power.

But because I chose to care about others, because I chose to consider their feelings, their happiness, and more, is why I was able to acquire this power.

Charity is indeed a very gentle Commandment, but there are much more left!

I rushed through this dark space, and found Chastity right after!

In fact, the bastard was chasing me!

It charges powerful yellow beams that actually hurt a little, and it seems to hate me a lot.

Well bad for you, I am too strong to die to a pathetic commandment like you!

I shape my entire body as a jaw and munch him out!

I use all of my power to suppress it bit by bit, and then, I try to show him my chastity!

…Which is non-existent in this world.

Chastity resists and tried to beat me back, it is somehow overpowering me due to my lack of actual chastity! No way…

Wait a second.

My previous life!

In my previous life I did had sex once, but that was very late in my life, before that, I was a virgin!

I show chastity all those years of complete virginity, and how much I resisted not busting a nut sometimes, and it's working!

Chastity seems a bit disgusted though, but who cares about that?!

CHOMP!

I devour him and refine him at once!

Chastity is mine!

The power courses through me, this is insane!

Ding!

[Kireina] acquired the [Heavenly Commandment of Chastity]!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Heavenly Commandment: Chastity] Title!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Awakened Commandment of Chastity] Title!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Heavenly Commandment of Chastity Arts: Level 1] Skill!]

Yes! Now we got this bastard down, who is next?!

I roar as I release all of this exhilarating new power, rushing towards my next target… Envy!

The Sin of Envy notices me as it begins to run away!

Hey, you can run but you cannot hide!

However, it suddenly extends a claw towards another nearby sin, and throws them at me!

Eh?! This bastard is a cunning one!

Suddenly, Wrath and Pride met me with enormous attacks, their claws extend off their spherical bodies like spectral attacks, coating themselves in red flames!

Clash! Clash!

I receive their hits, they are pretty strong!

However, I already have two sins and two commandments, you cannot beat me!

I roar and release my power over them, Wrath furiously fights back, biting me like a wrathful dragon, while pride roars proudly, like a lion on his last moments before death, attacking me as well!

Nope, not working buds!

I extend myself over them, and chomp them off inside!

Now, Avaritia, Luxuria, Charity, and Chastity, pulverize them!

I call all of the team and we gang on all of them together!

They are giving in!

Fucking die already!

I am going to show you all of my wrath and pride now!

I transfer all of my experience and memories to these Sins, and they immediately begin to obey me!

Oh yeah, when I get angry I am really fucking wrathful!

And I am quite the prideful woman as well.

Flash!

Both Sins fuse with me and become my own power!

Oof, two at once, this is really… something else!

The power feels like it is about to consume me, but now that I have refined them, I can control it and suppress it!

Ding!

[Kireina] acquired the [Deadly Sin of Wrath]!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Realm Menace: Wrath] Title!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Awakened Sin of Wrath] Title!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Sin of Wrath Arts: Level 1] Skill!]

Ding!

[Kireina] acquired the [Deadly Sin of Pride]!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Realm Menace: Pride] Title!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Awakened Sin of Pride] Title!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Sin of Pride Arts: Level 1] Skill!]

…

All of them are mine now!

This power is insane, and I can't help but look voraciously at the other Sins and Commandments!

I am coming for all of you now!

I rush through the darkness, catching up to Envy again!

Thanks for throwing me those guys, I just got stronger from it!

I leap over Envy and munch it like a wild beast!

Envy begins to struggle, releasing its powers over me.

But that will not do, I am way too overpowered now!

I call all of my Sins and Heavenly Commandments, and they suppress Envy without a problem!

However, no matter how much I suppress it, I need to refine it by showing it that I am also an envious person!

And sure I am!

You don't know how much I fucking envy those Supreme Gods all high in the sky, living leisurely and being so strong that no one messes with them!

I wish I could be like them so I could protect my family better, god damn it!

You bastards, I envy these retards so much!

Flash!

The Sin of Envy immediately responds, accepting my envy and becoming my power!

[Kireina] acquired the [Deadly Sin of Envy]!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Realm Menace: Envy] Title!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Awakened Sin of Envy] Title!]
