Chapter 216 Mirror Of Greed



"I didn\'t really want to use this on him but sadly, we didn\'t have any other choice." Diana sighed.

"We couldn\'t harm him and that was the easiest way to do things without using our real powers or without hurting him." Diana sighed.

"Why do you guys prevent yourselves from using your real powers? What would actually happen if you use your real powers?" Jason asked curiously.

"Well, let\'s just say he isn\'t strong enough to face them, even if we are using them for his own good," Diana explained. "Also, Koro, why did you tell him that everything would be handled well by all of us?"

"Uh…" Koro averted his gaze and looked like he was about to run away.

Diana\'s jaw twitched when she saw this. She advanced forward and pinched Koro\'s cheeks, making the sin of greed squeal.

Jason looked at this with a surprised expression before smiling. For some reason, he felt very relaxed when he saw the sins acting this way.

[ Just because someone is one of the seven deadly sins doesn\'t necessarily mean that they are a bad guy or anything like that. Same is true for demons. ]

\'I know. I have stopped looking at things that way a long time ago. I now know that everyone isn\'t necessarily the way they are portrayed.\'

[ Either that or they are putting up a show to manipulate you. Could be any of those two things. ] The system added.

Jason rolled his eyes before reaching out to May. He picked the demi-god in his arms again and held her.

[ Did you sense the weird thing about those tornadoes? ] May suddenly asked.

\'I did. What do you think caused that?\' Jason questioned curiously.

[ The natural mana of course. The attack was created using that boy\'s mana, yet it pulled on the natural mana inside the room, making it more deadly. I thought I was sensing things wrong, but I double checked to make sure I wasn\'t. ]

Jason nodded even though he hadn\'t realized the real reason for the tornadoes being stronger and dangerous than normal ones.

[ Don\'t blame yourself. I am the one you should blame for such things since I wasn\'t able to tell the difference. ]

\'Um, no offense, but did you take some kind of politeness module?\'

[ No, I didn\'t. I just realized something important that I should have recognized long ago. The sins might want to talk to you about that connection you felt. Listen to them. ]

Jason nodded and turned his focus back to reality. With May in his arms, he moved towards the sins, who were gathered around Wade\'s unconscious body.

"Can someone please explain what just happened?" Jason asked.

"What you just witnessed was the power of one of the five spirits of the demi-human race. That was the Azure dragon, the spirit related to storms and winds," Diana explained. "That mirror there is called the mirror of greed."

"Its an object that shows you the thing you are most greedy for you. We know that one member of the demi-human race will look at that mirror and not actually see anything in it, thus unlocking something special from it.

That person also has to be the vessel to one such spirit. We have been looking after Wade for some time but unfortunately, he isn\'t that person." Koro sighed. "Anyways, are you curious about what you will see in the mirror?"

Jason nodded slowly. Truth be told, he really wanted to see what he wanted now that he had almost received everything, he needed to make his life interesting.

"You can go and look at the mirror. Just don\'t use any of your powers and the mirror won\'t be able to get a hold of you. You will have to touch it and release a bit of your mana though." Amon instructed.

Jason walked up to the mirror and stared at his reflection. He was reminded of the clones he had fought in the trial of greed.

Jason touched the cold surface of the mirror with his hand and passed a tiny amount of his mana into it.

The reflection in the mirror suddenly started distorting, making Jason steel his heart for what was about to come next.

All of a sudden, a golden window opened in front of his face. The words written on the window gleamed black and glowed with a blood red outline.

< I am sorry but you can\'t see that. >

Jason blinked in confusion after reading the words however, when he heard a cracking sound, he realized what the words mean.

"Uh, guys, I think the mirror is cracking…"

"The fk!" Koro immediately cursed as he appeared right beside Jason and stared at the mirror.

A big crack was running through the middle of the mirror and was slowly spreading throughout the rest of the mirror.

Jason looked at this with a grim expression before touching it with his finger, something he did purely based on instinct.

The moment his finger touched the mirror, the cracked pieces fell down and scattered around the floor.

Koro stared at the pieces once before looking at Jason. "Which god did that?"

"I… don\'t know." Jason replied honestly. "It happened so suddenly that I didn\'t realize it until it was too late."

"This is quite troublesome." Koro sighed. "Gods always drive me crazy but I guess there\'s nothing I can do about this now. Good thing that the mirror will still do its job, bad news is that its multiplied so I have to make sure that it doesn\'t fall in the wrong hands."

Jason didn\'t say anything and simply placed his foot over one of the shards of the mirror.

He put it inside his inventory before saying his goodbye to the sins. He also apologized to Koro who shrugged it off.

[ Why did you take that piece? I am sure Koro will know about it. ]

\'I have a feeling it would be useful in the future. What should I do now by the way?\'

[ I just remembered that you have one book that you haven\'t yet read. ]

\'Which bo… oh.\'

Jason sighed as he looked inside his inventory. Despite realizing the answer, the system still replied to him.

[ I am talking about the book specially given to you by Seshat, the Bookworm Guardian.]
