Dungeon Maker - Chapter 266 Massive strike 2

The 11th floor of the Labyrinth of Greed.

It was the place guarded by Yuno in Virgo, the last one of Mammon's 12 Spirits.

The 11th floor, where the Mammon family's large banquet room and various living spaces were located, had a huge number of dungeon monsters. Moreover, as if to prove their power, even the weakest monster was powerful enough to be a four-star spirit by the standards of the Dungeon Market.

However, it was the King of Greed, his guardian knight, Catalina, and his companion, Kaiwan, who entered the 11th floor now. Even the dungeon monsters that drove the masters of the Mammon family to the upper floors couldn't be their match.

Aamon, who became one with the Godly Energy of Greed, proved that all the old legends of the demon world were true. The green flames full of the energy of Greed spread ferociously to burn the dungeon monsters all at once.

Catalina and Kaiwan also unleashed their new strength freely. A dark shadow and the whirlpool of the sword swept the dungeon monsters.

There were only three on the 11th floor, but it took less than an hour for them to destroy all the dungeon monsters on the 11th floor.

As the attack was done so quickly, Salami, who followed Yong-ho's party as a possible reinforcement, just looked at his master and companion blankly, not knowing how to help them.

[We have intelligence given by the dungeon spirit Yustia.]

[Yuno in Virgo is currently located in the large banquet hall. If you go straight ahead, you will see the door of the large banquet hall.]

As Lucia said, the grand banquet hall where Mammon used to hold a banquet with not only the 12 Spirits but also all the dungeon spirits of the Mammon family was vast. When Yong-ho opened the door, he saw a much larger and wider space than the Garden of Life.

There were lots of white tables and chairs under the blue sky and green trees. Guided by Greed, Yong-ho crossed them all and stood in front of a small white building resembling Scathach's mansion.

A round blue door opened automatically. The colorful mosaics shining in the sunlight and the beautiful yet elegant interior where white doves seemed to come out didn't draw Yong-ho's attention. Yong-ho, Catalina, and Kaiwan all looked at the woman with silver hair sitting in the middle of the house, with their eyes closed.

The legendary story about her was true. She was a surprisingly beautiful woman. She was the woman who could be compared with Sitri, the most beautiful woman Yong-ho had seen in his lifetime. While Sitri was a living beauty, the woman in front of him was a mystery itself, who seemed to disappear anytime soon, as if she was a woman taken out from a painting.

Unlike the Sin of Gluttony that was quiet at the moment, the Sin of Greed once again raised its voice. Then, as if responding to this, the woman in Virgo slowly opened her eyes. Yong-ho and his party were reflected in her eyes that changed colors according to the direction she looked at.

Extremely tense before she knew it, Catalina swallowed, and Kaiwan also looked at the woman with her lips tightly closed.

The woman blinked and soon tilted her head.

Then she said in a voice which was as beautiful as her appearance, "Elune?"

No one expected her to mention that name. That was why none of them could respond immediately, and the woman who got up from her seat, Yuno in Virgo, approached Catalina.

She said, "You can't help it, too. Were you born again under the same star sign as before? Did you get the drunk dragon's bliss? Besides, this time, you have become the guardian knight of the Mammon family?"

"Uh… pardon?"

Catalina was embarrassed when Yuno asked a barrage of questions unexpectedly. She couldn't understand what Yuno was talking about.

Yuno looked straight at her with her unshakable eyes and said, grabbing her hand, "I'm Yuno who is counting the stars and who discerns one's soul. You have been born with the spirit of Elune. I can tell you that the souls that went through the Astral Line were all the same, but I can say clearly that you can still be called Elune's reincarnation. Please forgive me for treating you informally. I was so happy to see you that I didn't take into account your situation."

Catalina's eyes twinkled violently.

At that moment, Kaiwan cut in quickly, "Wait, wait a second. Did you say Catalina is Elune's reincarnation? Then, Catalina's previous incarnation was Elune?"

Even Kaiwan was apparently dumbfounded, unable to put together the mysterious puzzle.

Yuno said calmly, "As I said before, I can't equally treat the soul that passed through the Astral Line, the vast sea of ​​souls wrapping around the stars, and the soul that didn't. However, there is something left behind after the soul passes through the Astral Line. You can call it the essence of the soul. And in that sense, this woman can be rightly called Elune's reincarnation. Of course, she is a bit different from the reincarnation you think of."

Catalina and Kaiwan found it hard to understand her explanation.

However, what she kept repeating shocked Catalina.

"I am Elune's reincarnation…"

Catalina raised her hands unwittingly and covered her blushing face. If someone had said it, Catalina would have ignored it out of hand, but it came directly out of Yuno's mouth, one of Mammon's 12 Spirits. So, she trusted Yuno, and her heart was full. How could she not be thrilled when she heard that Elune, the object of her admiration, was her own past life? Her ears and tail flapped violently.

Yuno looked at her very curiously.

She continued, "I'm just amazed to know that you are born under the same star sign as Elune not only in your past life but also in your current life. Besides, you have the blessings of the drunk dragon. I've never seen a soul like you. You really deserve to be Elune."

While she got carried away with the uncontrollable thrill, Catalina recalled the alter ego of Elune on the third floor of the Labyrinth of Greed and soon covered her face fully with both hands. Somehow she blushed and felt shy. Her flapping ears and tail drooped.

At that moment, Kaiwan cut in again.

"Hey, what about me? How was my previous life?"

She spoke in a very excited voice, something Yong-ho hardly noticed before.

Yuno replied after tilting her head, "I really don't know. I don't think you are included in the list of people that I know."

In fact, this was normal. After throwing cold water on Kaiwan's high expectations, Yuno finally turned to Yong-ho. She gracefully expressed due manners by slightly lifting the hem of a pure white dress that matched her silver hair and neat look.

"Please forgive me for introducing myself to you. You're the new King of Greed! Heir to the great Mammon family! I, Yuno, one of Mammon's 12 Spirits who is counting the stars, am honored to meet you."

Her calm introduction made Yong-ho feel less embarrassed. He looked at the last of Mammon's 12 Spirits, and she looked at him calmly.

Then she said in a voice mixed with yearning and wistfulness.

"You look very like him."

Yong-ho didn't even have to ask who he was. Catalina, who seriously thought about sticking her nose in the dish with her face covered with her hands, raised her head suddenly. She seemed to expect something new.

'Really? I can't believe it!'

Wasn't Yong-ho the reincarnation of Mammon, the great King of Greed?

Yong-ho was born with the Sin of Greed for the first time since Mammon. Moreover, he had the power of evolution like Mammon. He also knew how to use Aamon, who used to be Mammon's best friend.

Besides, there were lots of things that Yong-ho achieved.

It was no exaggeration to say that each of Yong-ho's achievements was a miracle. He was a special being, no matter what anyone said.

Kaiwan kept swallowing with her fists clenched. Then she suddenly shook her head.

'Oh, no. I can't!'

Come to think of it, there was Sitri. If Yong-ho was Mammon's reincarnation, what would be his relationship with Sitri? Yuno said that the reincarnation she mentioned was different from what Kaiwan or Catalina thought of, but she did not specifically explain what was different. Moreover, the question was how Sitri would take it.

Kaiwan looked at Yuno with an expression mixed with anticipation and worries.

Yuno shook her head then said in a voice mixed with wistfulness and regret from the beginning.

"You look like Mammon a lot, but you are not him. The one who is right in front of me is the completely new King of Greed."

Having said that, she turned to Kaiwan. It seemed that she mentioned it with Kaiwan and Catalina in mind, in particular.

Catalina blinked her eyes and slowly flapped her ears while Kaiwan let out a sigh of relief for some reason.

Yong-ho also felt strange at that moment.

She said he was not Mammon's reincarnation. In a way, what she said was right, but it seemed that he was expecting to hear something like a special secret of his birth from her.

Yuno smiled again and said, "But it's very strange. I feel like His Majesty Mammon is right now with the new King of Greed."

This time, Yong-ho was also persuaded by what she said. Indeed, he had lots of Mammon's legacies, so much so that he was another Mammon.

When Yuno was done talking, the flames of the red lotus arose right next to Yong-ho.

Yuno, who was talking to them in a small voice, spoke up for the first time, "Aamon!"

[It's been a while, Yuno.]

[I want to share my joy with you slowly, but the time is not good.]

[Currently, the House of Mammon is faced with a very grave danger.]

Aamon briefed her about the current situation shortly and clearly.

Yuno's fine eyebrows frowned. She realized the crisis of the Mammon family, but some other factors made her feel unpleasant.

The King of Pride who took possession of the Sin of Envy, and the King of Lust helping the King of Pride.

It was exactly the same political situation as it was a thousand years ago.

Among the Seven Deadly Sins, Greed, Fury, and Gluttony were with the Mammon family, while the Sin of Pride, the Sin of Envy, and the Sin of Lust were hostile toward the Mammon family.
