I Became A System

Chapter 216 - Mini Dog



After a week, Aaron finally had the item he was waiting for, "Hell Hound Invidog.". It's not like he doesn't want to involve Ellena in this, but just to be sure that he can lessen the threats coming to her, he'll erase them before they come.

But after realizing that he couldn't do much since he could only find one at a time and it would mostly take time, he just sighed.

"What do I expect? It's not like it will be really easy to find demons because if they can catch any demons, that dimensional market for the demon world won't exist."

He eyed the mini dog right below him. It was red-colored with slightly a k-9-like feature. And as the seller said, he was supposed to put some of his magical power.

'Magical power, or mana. But how? It's not like I'm using the system.'

He touched the item and closed his eyes. He thought of putting mana, but no matter how much effort he puts in, nothing happens.

'This is problematic. I can't get Ellena to know about this, so I can't ask for her help. Should I call Cules? I think nah... Ellena would suspect me if I suddenly called for Cules. I'll just try one more time.'

He went back to touching the item and thinking again. While he was thinking about it, he realized that it really wouldn't work. And so, he just used defensive magic, as, in this case, the mana will go out of the spell.

[Simple Barrier]

And just as he was expecting, it happened. The item was now activated. First, it glowed lightly, then went back into a normal state, but it was now more like a living dog.

'Find a demon, then mark his or her coordinates.' Aaron thought while touching the mini dog and just after it, it barked and disappeared like a shadow.

'So it was like a ninja or could teleport of some sort.'

Sin of Greed was an influential individual in the Demon World. With his thirst for different things, he obtains power within the circle of powerful individuals. However, despite his power, he grows weak as time goes on. He was only powerful because of greed, his longtime ability, but since there are no other things to greed over, he can't retain his power.

And thus, he decided to go with the other noble demons, but it was too late for him to know that he was the last of the 7 Sins to use the dimensional rift.

It was not a problem for him. As long as there was a place for his greed, he could become powerful again. And so, the time happened. However, he wasn't expecting that this world was a lot simpler than having a few people who were like him.

But his power came from his influence. What will he gonna do? He used his other ability, to summon finger greed. Every Sin had 10 fingers, but he was the only one who can have fingers without having loyalty. And so, he nurtured some from the world of humanity.

He put one in a small village, an orb that can greed over safety. Some weird greed was spreading, and after some exploration, he realized that he was now in the Phobious territory of some kingdom.

"The order of the king was to take over a land... Hehehehe... I didn't think this would be too easy!"

He continued hiding in shadows, going through different people, until he met two individuals in Fillian City. He gave them abilities to continue their greed, and as their greed would make them demons, he didn't really need to watch over them.

But as time goes on, he was noticed. He still has 4 fingers to go.

"Why would I give up?"

He contacted someone in his world since right now his location was in danger and his innate power was limited since his body right now wasn't his original body, he asked for backup.

Back up? Or fodder? He initiated an invasion in one city next to Fillian. But it turned out he wasn't doing well.

"Those werewolves are stupid!" he cursed, as irritated as he was.

Thus, he just waited, went back to the people he gave a symbol of a finger. And just what he wanted, they nurtured, merged with them, and became a full-fledged finger of Sin of Greed.

"I greet, My Master." a village chief said while half-kneeling.

"I greet the Great Sin of Greed." another one greeted who was a government official of the human government.

And so, other fingers continued greeting him. Even those who were captured were now on his side.

However, even though his fingers became demons, they didn't look like demons, instead, they still had the human body as their vessel.

"Demons only get a vessel when they can come into this world, that's why they needed powerful beings as their supporters. Spread my influence, and in just a month, I will take over Phobious territory."

His declaration filled the hearts of other fingers. And so, he didn't stop doing what he was doing. He spread his remaining fingers until he got none left.

"My investment will come to me! Now~ I should take over some people. Starting in one village!"

And just as he was thirsting about, he greed over people, making them his slave and servants. They were still humans in heart and mind. However, they had no will to contradict Greed's views. He was too powerful that they got influenced by his views, unwillingly.

Slowly, he attained some of his power, and one of them was mind-controlling, sharing views, and surfacing greed. And also, he got the natural powers of Sins, elemental power. But he got no interest in them. That's why he didn't train those abilities.

But his decision was wrong, making him realize that he should have practiced those elements because there will be a day he'll be attacked by a powerful human, stronger than him who was a Sin.

"I don't accept this defeat! I am a Sin! Higher than those normal noble demons! I am powerful!"

He contemptuously exclaimed, contained his anger within himself, but it was all in vain as he was about to die.
