Chapter 4 - The Last Gift

『...Yes it is... But it comes with a cost, are you really sure you want to use the Secrete Class? The cost might seem simple, but trust me ye Wonder. This Class will affect the entire World in an unfavorable way for you the player if chosen』

The image in his head replied taking Malone by surprise as he said.

"Ha? What do you mean the secrete class will class will affect the entire world, and in what way?"

He asked confused by the message notification.

To which another series of words pop up in his mind.

I can show you, then you can decide if you want 

『I can show you, then you can decide if you want to picked the secrete class or not. Although I would advise not to』

Malone did not like the sound of this, but if he could get his hand on the secret Class, all would be fine eventually.

And soon the weird words in his head responded, and show him the class he so desired.

『Sinner』

The Sinner class is a forbidden path, turning its wielder into an anomaly — a being that should not exist. Sinners embody all seven sins at once, perfectly replicating the benefits of each individual sin class. They can fight like a Ravager, seduce like a Tempter, devour like a Devourer, and more, without restriction, although the pro and cons still apply. But this power comes at a price.

The world difficulty will increase to its hardest level, all enemies will now be seven times stronger, than the original

How to gain Divine Essence: Any action that aligns with any Sin. Wrath, lust, sloth, greed, pride, envy, or gluttony, all fill the gauge. However the user will have an alignment gauge. Good or Evil. If the user alignment passes 50% in the evil alignment, you cannot reverse it. And your personality will be stuck at that alignment.

Starting Stats:

Strength: 5

Speed: 5

Endurance: 5

Focus: 40

Charisma: 5

Intelligence: 10

Ego: 4

When Malone saw this, his eyes raise in shocked. Truly this was an unfair trade off. 

"So you are telling me that in exchange for the greatest potential. A class that was intended to make the Wonder Lore accurate, the world will now be stronger."

『Yes. However, everyone has a level cap from birth, However the sinner level cap stop at lvl 1000, instead of the usual 100 the Wonder normally stop at』

"I see... Hmm so hard in the early parts of the game, but gets easy the long run the more closer I get to lore accurate power."

『Yes』

"Hmmm... Sigh, very well, I choose the Sinner class."

『Are you sure, keep in mind you can't choose another class after your soul leaves here there is no coming back to this realm』

"Ha realm, hey now that I think about it, where is here exactly, who are you?

『Both Irrelevant questions, now confirm your class』

"Dickkk... Fine, yes I choose Sinner."

『You have chosen the forbidden class known as Sinner. Prepare for transmigration』

"Wait just li...

But before Malone could complete, his sentence he suddenly felt drowsy as his soul fall into a dark oblivion state.

And then pure darkness.

༒══⊹⊰✦⊱⊹════༒ 

Malone began to fall deeper into the abyss, his soul traversing elsewhere, long gone from the mysterious sea he once found himself in.

Soon, his vision came back, filling his view with the imagery of a familiar place. Before him was a massive throne anchored upon a barren land of rocks as countless stars and galaxy could be seen in the background, it looked almost divine in nature, yet eldritch in appearance.

Yet none sat upon it.

For none was strong enough to withstand it's power. Only a vessel can sit upon it as lord.

"Ohh...

Malone groaned, his head spinning, but he knew what this place was, and what this throne was as well.

"Isn't that?...

He paused for a moment.

"Isn't that the Free Throne, the will of the world, embodiment of the Demiurge's power.

He said to himself, and yet soon began to hear a voice echoed at the back of his head.

"... Finally...

The voice said.

"Finally, thou hast arrived… O wonder from beyond the fog of chaos."

"My prayers… it seems they found purchase. The Demiurge hath not yet forsaken us."

"Demiurge?...

Malone said, the God of the Prime land, and the strongest existence in Eroge Souls.

Yet in the game the Demiurge has abandoned this world, after he saw how flawed his creation were.

But even then the voice, a beautiful voice, however it sound tired, but hope still course through it. But the voice could not hear Malone.

"O Wonder, I beseech thee… bring salvation to this depraved realm. Let the Seven be cast down by thy hand, in death or dominion."

She said, her voice growing distant by the second

"Lady who are you?"

Yet the voice did not hear.

"Wonders many, drawn from realms beyond the great fog, have come and gone. Each, in turn, was unmade. Cast down by the Seven, whose rot now festers deep within the marrow of this world."

"The light has fled us. Mercy lies dead. What remains is a hollow husk, steeped in sin. War and murder, desecration and ruin, dominion without purpose... a dirge without end."

"...This cannot go on any longer... Change must come."

"Yet I... I am diminished. Heavily bond to the nature of thy function. I cannot act without a Lord of the Land."

The voice getting more and more softer as the throne starts to disseapear from Malone's vision.

"So then… Wonder. Become my hope. Let thy blade sing the end of them, kill them, kill them, kill them all."

"Rule me, as I can no longer rule. I am hollow, and the lands cry for thee."

"Take now my final gift. For all Crests I have given up until now… all were sundered, lost with the Wonders who fell in battle who bore them. But unto thee, I offer what remains, my last of the Twin Great Laws I now posses."

"I bestow upon thee the Crest of Victory."

"I shall be with thee always… bound in spirit, in memory, in fate."

"Until we meet again... hopefully next time, as Lord."

With those words, Malone world erupted into an explosion of bright golden light blinding him till he lost sight of everything.

And now, he awaken elsewhere.
