Chapter 654 Revelation: The First Finger [Monthly Bonus 1]

"David is a Hero and he didn\'t know that Leviah was here. Then how did the Demonic Hand know she was here?"

This was a very serious question. How did the Demonic Hand know where to find Leviah and all the other Deadly Sins?

From the wry smile on Evan\'s face, they all knew that the boy knew the answer to this question.

"You sure he\'s the only one who was supposed to know? When that guy came to talk to me—I think his name was Seeth or so."

"Seith."

"Whatever it is, when he came to talk to me, he claimed to have already spoken to Emrel as well and Emrel told him to go find Roselia first.

It was because of that I even had the idea to tell him to find her as well.

He muttered something about not knowing whether to talk to me or Emrel first but ended up going to Emrel since he wanted to get the \'hard part out of the way first\'."

When Evan heard her, he kind of understood why Seith considered Emrel (Sloth) to be the \'Hard Part\'. Kind of difficult to make a conversation with someone who was half asleep most of the time.

"This Seith, is he the same one who you said was supposed to be at the Graveyard of the Arrogant?"

"Yep, the one and the same Seith Beddoe. The Demonic Hand\'s Sixth Finger."

Evan replied to Kolvar\'s question, taking a seat on his chair before continuing.

"The answer to your question is something I cannot say as it is related to the Leader of the Demonic Hand.

That person is the one sending the other Fingers to the locations where the Deadly Sins are sealed."

Hearing Evan\'s answer, David placed a hand on his chin as he asked the next most important question.

"The issue is how he knows where they are in the first place."

When David spoke, Evan silently turned his gaze to him and the Lion Beastman felt strange when he saw the way Evan was looking at him.

"…What?"

"…"

Evan still remained silent, and eventually, David realised why.

"…I\'m supposed to know the answer to this question, right?"

"Yes, you are."

This confirmation instantly told David that the answer lay within the memories of his predecessor. But these were centuries worth of memories; he needed some kind of \'clue\' or \'keyword\' so he could peruse only things related to the answer instead of searching blindly.

Evan knew this as well, so he decided to give a hint.

"Let me jog your memory.

The Demonic Hand\'s executives; the \'Ten Fingers\', would revive over and over unless they are killed in a manner that Damages more than 40% of their Souls.

The First Finger possesses that capability.

That\'s why when your father killed Dominik Velak in Graugro 26 years ago, the Deathlord was able to make a comeback last year.

His soul wasn\'t damaged upon that death, so both he and Zacular were revived."

After a short pause, Evan continued.

"I did make sure to use a lot of Destruction Essence when I killed him so we ain\'t gonna be having a Third Coming of Dominik Velak."

When Evan stopped speaking, David began searching through his predecessor\'s memories, but even after using different keywords, he didn\'t arrive at anything that could lead him to the answer he felt Evan wanted.

Seeing this, Evan decided to give him another hint.

"Appraise Liz, then think again."

David did not understand why appraising Eliza was going to help him arrive at the answer, but he still did it either way, scanning through her status from her name tab to her Unique Skills tab.

"Huh? Unique Skill…reviving after death…reincarnation…FUCKING HELL! IT\'S HIM!!"

The Lion Beastman\'s eyes widened in shock when it finally clicked in his head.

"r̴̖͎̖̺̘͓̫̗͆̀͒̕ȉ̷̛͖̟̭̬͉̠͂̓̇̐͊͘m̶̢̳̯̯̮̜̜͍̩̘̜̗͌̽͛̀͒̊̈́͒͑͆̅̎͘a̵͙̦̪͕̳̙̙̹̝̟͎̾́̓̓̏͌̒̈́͝Ď̷̡̛̬̰͍͓̳̳̐̀̈́͑̐̐̇̌̕͘̚ḓ̵͈̜̞̘̝̳͕̼̫̖͕̱̾͛̓̃̍̊͗͘̚̕͝ǐ̵̫̜̗͚̜͚r̴̠͖͕̟̣͈̙̯̓͜ě̵̲̲͇̀̓̊̒̎̾͆F̵̛͈̗̩̦̘̯̪̘̑̔̅̈̌͌̆̽̿̿͘͝ͅ ̴̛̥̬̤̹̘̥͖̞͈̾̎̿̒͑̑̓͑͐̋̓̒̈̇ͅ."

Evan spoke \'something\', and while it only sounded like the noise of an untuned radio to others, from the expression on David\'s face, it was clear that he had heard whatever Evan had just spoken.

"You\'re joking, right?"

"Not in the slightest."

David pressed his hands to his temple and made some unintelligible noises with his mouth.

"Not being able to die permanently unless killed with the energy of a world law or a Unique Series Skill that has sufficient mastery levels.

The Clues were all there from the very beginning, why didn\'t I think about it?"

"He made it so you didn\'t. It\'s World Magic, kind of like a subtle manipulation; makes you subconsciously ignore clues that are right in front of your eyes.

Pretty Scary shit."

Evan rubbed his arms as if trying to get rid of goosebumps while David looked at him and asked a question.

"How the hell is that guy even still alive?"

"Dude, he\'s a Sovereign. He has a long lifespan. He\'s been there even before your dad came around and still has many more years to go—if I don\'t kill him first."

Seeing the reactions of the two Heroes, Kolvar felt that the person he knew as the Leader of the Demonic Hand and the one they were talking about probably were not the same person.

\'Altrishia appraised him, and he didn\'t have any Unique skill that had to do with \'Reincarnation\'.

It\'s why we still don\'t understand how he revived them and assumed it was probably an Ancient Lost Magic or a Demon Spell.\'

Most importantly, Evan had just insinuated that the Leader of the Demonic Hand was older than him. That didn\'t match what Altrishia had seen on the Age tab when she appraised him.

While the Beast King was thinking about this, his daughter posed a question to her brother.

"The way you two are acting…Is this person that bad?"

"Bad doesn\'t even begin to cut it, Malaya.

The man created \'Fake Heroes\' with the intention to kill the real Heroes and replace them in the System of Aidos.

And he\'s making progress…

I estimate the ones who attacked me in Shelde to be around 10% completion at most."

At this point, Evan just decided to carry on and talk about as much as he could before his restrictions started acting up. He turned to Kolvar who was deep in his thoughts and spoke.

"I can guess what you\'re thinking, and yes, the Name and Face that you guys have is FAKE.

All of us here present know this person\'s p̴̭͔̰̏͒̾̓̔̃̊͘͝͝ó̴͙͓̙̓ş̶͇͓̪̋ȋ̷̡̨͙̳̦̘̮̖̥̓̋̊̈̅͑͝t̴̡̧̫̗͉̐͊͂͂î̸̢̢̬̬̭̣̝̪̤̩͎̮͗̈́̈́̓̄͊̓̕̚͝͝͝ͅo̸̜̯̠͖͖̝̝͎̝͎͛͌̓͑̾̑͋͜͠n̵̳͔̞͈̱͙͈̍̊̈̈͗͋̈͑͗̿̚͘͠ơ̵̧̥̜͙̼͎̤͕̜̣̻͖͛̈́͌̓͝ͅf̴̧͇͙̫̜̬̭̖̬͙̖̎̽̓͝

Fuck."

Evan cursed the restrictions on him that prevented him from even giving a roundabout hint on the \'Public Face\' that the Demonic Hand\'s leader had.

"Can you at least clue us in on the skill that enables him to revive the executives?"

"My interaction with David earlier was a hint on its own."

The young hero replied to Kolvar as he began packing up the chairs he brought and sending them back into his inventory.

The Beast King had picked up on the \'Reincarnation\' hint, so he at least knew the First Finger\'s skill gave him the power to manipulate the World Law of Reincarnation.

Something that could do that, was definitely a Unique Series Skill. The issue here is what Series the Skill was from.

Before he could voice these thoughts, however, Leviah who was done enjoying the feeling of being free from the Boss Room, casually called out the name of a skill.

"Child of Reincarnation."

"…"

"…"

When she said this, Evan looked up at her with surprise, before turning towards Pride and asking.

"Wasn\'t she supposed to be dumb?"

"YOU FUCKING CUNT! I\'D KILL YOU!"

His question naturally pissed the High Demon off and she summoned her spear with the intent to attack him, only to be held back by Greed.

"Hold up, sister! You just contracted with him!

"LET ME AT HIM! LET ME AT HIM!!!"

Evan went to hide behind Kolvar just in case Leviah somehow managed to break free from Greed\'s hold and come after him.

The boy then used his shadows to drag the last table and chair over to his position before folding them and putting them into his inventory.

From the way he reacted, Kolvar guessed that the skill in question was indeed the \'Child of Reincarnation\' skill and that much information was plenty.

Upon seeing that Kolvar had understood what he wanted, Evan moved around to avoid the Demon of Envy who wanted to pierce his head with her spear before saying.

"So, we\'ve been down this hole for a bit too long, it\'s high time we got back up to the surface."

Like so, he led them all out of the Boss Room and to the Elevator outside, where they returned to the Second Floor Boss Room.

Evan activated Lethe to cloak their presence as they exited the dungeon, and after finally getting a suitable spot, Kolvar created a spatial gate which the group used to leave the Dungeon Area.
