Originator of Envy, Leviathan

[Host transferring procedure finished

New Host Leviathan.]

This was the last message Seven heard from the system. Afterwards, no matter how much he called system, no matter how much he shouted, there was no response.

"hehehehehe, you are useless. You have nothing left now. You are useless without those cheats. hehehehehe", said the mask, while forming a crude body of black mass.

A 5 meter tall monster was formed with its whole body formed by a black mass, it twisted its body and then the mask came in front of Seven directly looking at him, face to face.

"First you lost your loving parents.

And now you arrrre, looosing everything agaaain. hehehahahaaa", said Leviathan while being in front of him. His way of talking changed and rather than becoming annoying, this time it was terrifying.

"I was never envious of others. Never", said Seven with fear in his eyes after watching the terrifying changes in Leviathan.

I lost Monster Emperor System. I lost all my cards. I lost all my monsters.

What am I without them?

I always relied on them, and when alone, I am completely useless!!!

'Son, if you believe in something, it will happen', suddenly Seven remembered what his previous life father said.

'Dear, we love you, and we would always love you. We believe you. We trust you', Seven remembered what his mom said, quite a while ago.

'I wish to know who I really am. I wish to evolve myself. I will not run away and I want to face the truth about who I really am', Seven remembered what he answered to the Remnant Spirit. When he had decided to face Originator of envy, Leviathan.

'STOP RUNNING', Seven gave himself a brutal slap on his face while yelling at himself.

"Yes, I felt envious. I felt ENVY.

*drip*

Envious of the kids playing out in the field while I was ill, lying on the bed.

*drip* *drip*

Envious of the people who can go on a trip with their family.

*drip* *drip*

I felt anger, I felt envy. For bearing the pain while I have not caused anyone any suffering. Why was life so biased towards me."?

At last Seven accepted the truth about himself. It pained him when he said all this, but after accepting it he felt relieved. It felt as a stone was lifted from his heart.

"Awwww, your life sucked. Youuu, accepted yourself that you felt envy. And you are useless now, so no one cares about you. Whatever youuu do is useless. hehehahahaaa",

"You are wrong.", said Seven with a slight smile on his face.

"Everyone has emotions. These emotions were made during the course of evolution. It took millions of years for 'nature' to make us humans. How can she be wrong.

What is envy?

It is an extreme feeling of having what someone's possess.

But when we do not let envy control us.

We DREAM. We only dream when we wish to possess some belonging.

Dream makes us work hard. Dream makes us HUMAN.

Dreams have created many beautiful inventions, many beautiful things.

Having a DREAM is not a sin. Dreams gives us HOPE. One of the Heavenly Virtues.", said Seven to Leviathan while realizing many things, himself.

"You are an annoying pest. What can these shitty lines do. You are still useless. First, you were a burden on your parents, then you died and did not fulfilled any of their dreams, now you are a let down for your new parents.", said Leviathan in a slightly irritated voice.

"Yes, I am useless. So what?

Yes, I am not perfect. So what?

Yes, I relied on them. So what?

They are my companions. Therefore, I relied on them. And I will do so thousands of times.

I am not perfect, and I know no one can be perfect. We can only improve ourselves.

We should give our best, we should always keep trying to improve ourselves, and only the will to work hard and change things matters.", said Seven.

"I may be a burden on my family, but if I stop trying because of this then I become TRASH.

But if I keep trying, then there must be things where I can help.", Seven continued.

"Enough with this bullshit, you can neverrr conquer yourrr Envy and thus can neverrr get out of this placeee. hehehahahaaa", said Leviathan with a voice void of any emotions.

"Yes, I know I can't conquer my envy. But I can accept it. I can try to control it and have DREAMS.", said Seven with a beautiful smile on his face.

Just as Seven completed his sentence, the void started cracking and slowly it was disintegrating into nothing less.

The last thing he heard before falling unconscious was,

"Damn you PESTTTT"

--------

Where am I?

Is this my room? Am I back?

'Oh, there are few system's messages. Lets see what they are.'

[Sending host's consciousness to 2nd Terrace of Purgatory: The Envious (Fake)]

[Host's consciousness has reached]

[Host has been attacked using Never Ending Despair Illusion (God)]

[System tries to redo Never Ending Despair Illusion (God)

1%...8%.....19%... ZZZZZZ

System being forcefully stopped]

[Host broke the Never Ending Despair Illusion (God)]

[Host, the system is forcefully being held and therefore cannot help you.

Host would have to win this battle with himself.

Host Do Your Best]

[Everything returned to normal, as the host has managed to defeat the first the challenge of Originator of Envy, Leviathan]

'To be able to forcefully stop Monster Emperor System, Leviathan is way too strong.'

{You are completely wrong, the existence which you met was a Remnant Spirit just like me. If it was Leviathan himself, then he could have destroyed Monster Emperor System completely. There would have been no way for you to win. Even my true body would have been eradicated easily. Monster Emperor System, is an evolving system. It gets strong as you would get stronger. To take the challenge of envy while you are not even a Soldier Ranked individual is one of the biggest idiots I have ever seen.}

'Yeah, I was wrong. And I admit it.'

'Learn from the mistakes we made in the past, and use it to get stronger in the future.'

"System shows me the ability which I got after going through all that hell."

[Cardinal Sins : It is a grouping of vices. These give birth to all the immoralities. These sins are often thought to be abused or excessive versions of one's natural faculties or passions.

Envy: It is a feeling of discontented or resentful longing aroused by someone else's possessions, qualities, or luck.

1) Can take anyone's skills and make it your own. Multiple skills can be taken at the same time. The more skills taken, the more emotional burden body bears. There is no limit to how long it can be used.

Currently the skills would be given back after the ability has been cancelled.

WARNING : Host is requested to restrict the use of this ability. As its excessive use can consume host's consciousness.

The second ability it grants is locked. (You have fulfilled the condition to meet Leviathan)]

"Such an overpowered skill. My sufferings paid off.", said Seven to himself with a bitter smile.

'No way in hell I am going to meet Leviathan again while I am this weak. This time he may be 100 times or more strong.', thought Seven to himself.

Its time for me to start absorbing Myricia, to make myself strong.
