Reincarnated as a World

Ch.222 Multi Continental Lord

“Do you mean to say that the day of the Green Horror was caused by Envy? How coul- Wait! Wait!!!” Lily exclaimed, her voice as seductive as her appearance even in her astonishment. A lot of heads turned her way since it was obvious that she had had an epiphany, but their faces were grim because it was very likely that they were thinking the same thing.

“I-I remember now. On e-each day of horror, everyone who succumbed to the different colours dreamed about strange things before a mighty figure that covered the sky appeared before them. They said it was like a g-god, and not the...” She turned towards Gaia. “weakened god that Gaia is...”

Gaia didn’t react in any way, allowing Lily to speak with less worry.

“On the day of the green horror, the creature that appeared was supposedly a turquoise coloured bird covered in green icy flames. Could it be...”

Those that hadn’t reached that conclusion for themselves almost yelped with surprise. There were even a few who audibly gasped, drawing a bit of attention their way.

“That’s right” Chad spoke out for the first time, snatching back the attention. “That was him. Envy. And although he is not as big or as strong as what those victims portrayed him to be, he is getting stronger. And apparently...”

He took a deep breath. “Apparently, he has begun to conquer entire continents.”

Murmurs abruptly broke out at that. The words “lies!”, “nonsense!” and anything synonymous could be heard above the rest and it was very clear that they didn’t believe what Chad was claiming, but he didn’t react. He had already foreseen that response.

Looking at the various incredulous faces in the gathering, some which were becoming twisted with anger, she knew that she had to intervene before things got out of hand.

“I believe Chad is telling the truth.” She spoke out. “The 7 Deadly Sins have the diabolical ability to corrupt the minds of those whose will’s are found lacking. You’ve all seen it yourselves. How many times have one of your followers suddenly changed in attitude, becoming stranger and stranger before a coloured symbol reveals itself on their forehead, changing their eye colours and sometimes even other features, and granting greater power that they couldn’t have displayed before.

Every single one of these people who succumb are passively generating their root Sin more power, and even though it’s small, with enough of these people a Sin can grow in power incredibly quickly. And although for some reason, the Black and Red Sins are showing growth 100x slower than the Green one, Envy, they are global problems that we will eventually have to deal with.

But just imagine. Black and Red have been causing a big fuss, no doubt growing in power, but Envy is doing it even better, and has been doing so for many years now. To conquer an entire continent or 2? It isn’t as far-fetched as you think, especially since according to the Duck who reported to Chad, their Continent was much smaller than both of ours.”

As Gaia said all this, she couldn’t help but thank the [Common Language] that came with the System. It was a marvellous feature that allowed her to freely speak with any being with perfect understanding. It made the miracle that was her speaking to these various brand new species the way she was, a possibility.

But she didn’t have time to think about that right now.

Now, she now had to discourage the people who were thinking of pledging their allegiance to Envy out of fear or whatever other reason. After talking about him as if he were a god-king this entire time, presenting proof that was even more daunting than anything she had ever displayed, there were definitely people who were scheming troublesome things, and she couldn’t have that at all.

“Envy is a calamity that the World has never seen before.” She began.
