Chapter 470 - Great.....Just Great

Rudra was led to a private prayer room inside the church , the place where commoners came to confess their sins and talk to the priests about salvation.

It was a soundproof room , and that is what the pope chose as the room to discuss the coming issue with Rudra.

Usually it would be a massive security threat to let the pope in a soundproof room with someone alone. However considering how Rudra was not strong enough to even touch the Pope's toe , the paladins took it easy and just stood outside the room waiting for the conversation to finish.

Rudra knew it was true , and he did not really care if the paladins were inside or outside the room . But their casualness made him feel insulted. He was reminded about what a small fry he was in the greater picture of things.

However he could not linger on those feelings for long as he could feel the negativity inside him evaporate every second that the pope looked at him.

Being a rational person who did not beleive in the wonders of the god's , Rudra found this mysterious . The pope seemed to have a lot of secrets about him.

The pope said " My child , what I am to tell you today is a matter of grave importance and you must try your best to not fail the Church in this matter ".

Rudra was now worried a bit , if the f'in pope said that the matter was of grave importance , then it was sure to be a grand fiasco.

Rudra looked all serious as he listened intently ...

The pope continued " The goddess herself contacted me , informing me that Archangel Micheal has a mission for you my child . He handpicked you to entrust you to enter the place where the devil rules , and rescue a child that has lost his way .... ".

Although the pope was selective with his words , Rudra's soul had already escaped his body.... The place where the devil rules could only be ' HELL!'.

Rudra's mind was in chaos as he cursed at the pope ' Fucking faggot , the church is supposed to give mortals salvation and send them to heaven when they die , not to fucking hell when they are fucking alive ! '.

The pope continued " Archangel Micheal has called in a favour with the goddess and the matter cannot be ignored . The church will owe you one of you successfully complete this quest my child .

Naturally for a mortal like you , it is impossible to successfully complete this mission if not given divine help . But you will have everything you need to have a fair chance to complete the mission.

Micheal and the goddess have both given me items of incredible value to aid you in this journey , and rewards beyond comprehension , should you complete it

However , i must warn you , the goddess does not bless the soul of those who die in hell. Hence should you be unfortunate enough to be killed there , you will not find yourself waking up inside the church , by the goddess's feet.

Most probably your soul will be adrift forever ".

Rudra looked at the quest details and his wandering soul re-entered his body , only to escape again in sheer panick , as Rudra's body went as cold as a log.

After a breif time , his mind just went ' @#$$#)@##@#@$*****@@#******@@***##$$******' .

Foul Words that will make even the pope with a divine aura , vomit blood if spoken outloud , were rampaging in Rudra's mind.

( Meanwhile in Hell )

Aman was sent to the upper levels of hell , as the constant exposure dark mana in the lower levels , was detrimental to humans like him.

The lower levels of hell were only meant for the strongest demons, who could nourish themselves from the aura of the devil himself. Demons like the seven demons of sin .

However , for security reasons , the sin of pride was sent to accompany Aman in the lower levels of hell , to act as a deterrent for any trouble.

The sin of pride was one of the strongest sins , ranking 3rd overall behind wrath and gluttony . His name was 'Leviathan' , the original sin . The one from which all others arised. However with Lucifer becoming the devil , he was forced to bend the knee , however his pride would not allow him to be subservient to anyone , making him the rebellious sin. Lucifer hence supported the other sins in their development untill pride first lost the number one position to wrath and recently to belzebub the gluttony sin as well.

His pride would not allow him to be 2nd place, much less third. Hence he was currently undergoing an intense training regime to challenge wrath for the post of number one sin. Then he would take on the devil himself for the throne of the ruler of Hell!

However the disparity between his power and Lucifer's made the entire ordeal laughable. Even if there were a thousand sin of pride battling Lucifer at once , the devil would not fall. Maybe not even batt an eye at the laughable attack that was mounted on him.

This led to Leviathan having a hard time contemplating his existence , as he could not accept being a servant , yet knew in his heart that going against Lucifer meant instant death.

The result was him loosing his way , as slowly he crumpled down the power ladder .

Still beyond the level of greater demons , and ranking stronger than most other sins , pride was an extremely strong tier 5 demon , someone who Rudra could not take on even in his wildest of dreams at his current stage.
