Chapter 163 – [SLOTH] - Part 1

September 12th, 182 A . D .

The morning assembly meeting of Ye City was canceled today to allow the officials and workers to rest after the hectic night .

Zhang He worked all night yesterday, so he excused himself to rest . On the other hand, Jia Xu and Ju Shou had a proper rest, the two strategists brainstormed in private to draft the Ye City integration plan for the Yellow Turban and Tong Army .

As for Tong, he also worked all night like Zhang He, but he could not sleep .

His [Pride] curse was in the danger zone as it had a high probability to take control of his body and soul any moment . He had to find a way to keep this curse in check as soon as possible before Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun Army arrived .

Tong texted into the clan chat to ask Dong Bai, hoping to get an advice from the ex-demoness .

During the time when Tong was in Julu, he consulted with Dong Bai about his demon soul and its use before . But he forgot to ask about the details of the awakening and the possible danger as they were too focus on the usage .

Furthermore, Dong Bai and Hua Shi usually got sidetracked by their lewd talk and strayed from Tong’s main topic, which always ended up with him being ravished by the two predators .

Zhang Tong: What is the opposite of [Pride]?

Hua Shi: Modesty?

Li Feihong: Humbleness?

Dong Bai: Are you trying to awake your soul again?

Zhang Tong: It’s related to my [Demonic Curse] skill . The system warned me that it had high chances that it can take over my body .

Dong Bai: Has it invaded your soul yet?

Zhang Tong: No, but chances are 20% now .

Zhang Tong: Is there a way to suppress it other than trying to act opposite of the sins?

Zhang Tong: I don’t want to be a bootlicker .

Hua Shi: Is it related to the demonic awakening that you did?

Hua Shi: The last time you awakened your stand .

Dong Bai: @Zhang Tong Modesty works .

Li Feihong: O_O

Li Feihong: My bro has a stand!?

Li Feihong: I want to see! >w< li="" feihong:="" what="" is="" it="" like?="" hua="" shi:="" it’s="" a="" naked="" woman="" with="" big="" oo="" li="" feihong:="" oo?="" zhang="" tong:="" @dong="" bai="" i="" doubt="" i="" will="" have="" a="" chance="" to="" act="" modestly...="" zhang="" tong:="" any="" alternative="" way="" besides="" trying="" to="" be="" humble . ="" zhang="" tong:="" i="" don’t="" have="" many="" chances="" for="" that . ="" hua="" shi:="" b00b!="" li="" feihong:="">_>

Li Feihong: Now I want to see x100

Hua Shi: He has given it to Baibai .

Hua Shi: So you have to ask her to show you .

Li Feihong: HE CAN GIVE STAND!?

Li Feihong: REEEEEEEEE

Li Feihong: @Zhang Tong GIVE ME ONEEEEEE

Hua Shi: @Zhang Tong GIVE ME TWOOOOO

Zhang Tong: NOISY! STOP SPAMMING!

Zhang Tong: This is serious!

Tong pressed his glabella to soothe his headache . He wanted to have a serious conversation with Dong Bai about this matter, but those bored reincarnators spammed with random chatting again .

Dong Bai was silent in the chat room for over 10 minutes, but the chat room was flashing the "Dong Bai is typing..." message under the message box . Tong patiently waited for her reply .

Then, long messages from Dong Bai showed up .

"The process of awakening normally takes years to complete one demon soul . For us, we don’t have a system to give us the number of how many percentages or how close we are about to succeed, so I don’t know if our method will work out for you or not . "

"In Hell, when demons like us were born, we will be trapped in a special prison for demons that lost control of themselves . We usually lost our control when we hit puberty, so normally, we lock ourselves in there for a few million years, and we will regain our sense naturally . By the time I regain my senses, I already have four wings on my back . But in your case, you’ll have to awake them manually . "

"So here’s the deal . There’s a trick that all demons are using . When we have extra souls that we aren’t using, we will use that available soul as a sacrificial seal . As long as we have one extra soul, we can disable all dangerous sins, with a cost that we won’t be able to grow another wing again in our lifetime . "

"I’ll teach you the method once you get back . For now, concentrate on awakening the sins that you have confident on conquering . As for [Pride], try to act humble or be an ass-kisser for a while . "

"Your issue now is about your personality and habit traits . Everybody has different traits and compatibility, so there will be a couple of sins that you can overcome quickly while the rest will be very difficult . For example, I managed to awake the [Despair], [Gluttony], [Envy], and [Wrath] . But I failed the rest, so my true form in the past only had 4 wings and 4 demon souls . The same goes for every devil in Hell . Average demons have two wings . Only captain class and above has 4 wings or higher . I think my mom has seven or eight . The last time I saw her wings was a millennia ago, so I think she has 8 right now?"

"You will easily overcome at least two sins in the early years of your demonhood, but you will always have a few incompatible ones . It’s the weakness that everybody has . I’m assuming that [Pride] is your hidden personality, so that might be the reason it keeps increasing its strength . Your next awaken souls should be [Envy] or perhaps [Greed] judging from your habits . "

"Concentrate on what you can conquer . Don’t worry about [Pride] for now . "

Tong carefully read the messages as if he was reading a textbook . Dong Bai blurted out a few information that he did not ask, such as the wings and the prison .

He subconsciously touched his back to feel if he had wings . He had just overcome his [Lust] and awakened his first demon soul . Tong thought that he would grow a pair of wings if he had a demon soul as well .

To his disappointment, his back was still as usual, a human back .

"How do I not have wings? I have one demon soul, right?" Tong texted back .

"You need at least 2 souls before your wings grew . For now, abandon all your thoughts and concentrate on getting your second and third soul . Like I said, awake them first, then I’ll teach you how to use them later . If you worry too much, your [Despair] will probably get stronger again . " Dong Bai replied .

...

Later that day, Tong rested in his new courtyard prepared by Ju Shou .

It used to be Han Fu’s private residence, but Ju Shou evicted all of Han Fu’s remaining relatives and servants for Tong . New staffs were hired to replace the sacked servants .

A few maids walked around in the courtyard, cleaning up the garden and moving their luggage .

Tong remembered a few of them . Three of the servants were the dancers who were almost ravished by Bao Xin and his men . It seemed they quit their job as it was too risky to be abused and became maids instead .

’Concentrate, concentrate . ’

Tong abandoned his useless thought and continued his push-up, even though he could hardly lift his body up . He was doing it for the sake of getting rid of his [Sloth] .

’Will this work?’

’How long do I have to push myself further?’

’If I slack, it increases . But I’m reaching my limit, yet the messages haven’t appeared . ’

Tong pushed his body up once more before he collapsed on the floor on his stomach . It was the 2,000th push-up marathon in one session . Even though he had many passive boosts, going gung-ho in one sitting was still hard for him .

’Regen! Again!’

’Freaking finally! Alright, I wonder if I can weaken it one more time!’</if></your></probability></your></ding>
