Chapter 91 - Sin For Me!
‘There are over one thousand people living in this town alone. It should be enough.’
Flying above ground, Jake took notice of the population first. He had come here after taking a rest, so he was pretty refreshed.
Regis town was still small and rarely had visitors. Unexpectedly, a caravan had entered this place today.
As Jake hadn’t scanned the merchants using [Magipathy], he didn’t know that monsters disguised as humans were among them.
He focused on the ground below and lowered himself.
”Whoa!”
”Hey, look at that.”
”A person just fell!”’
Exclamations rang out in the streets of Regis as a black-robed man descended from the sky. They all attributed this to magic. If Jake had been wearing some priestly or angelic-looking clothes, maybe he would be judged differently.
He looked around and saw the faces of people of all ages. Elderly walking with sticks, children sucking on their thumbs, and adults doing their work. They were surrounding him in a half circle, too stunned to speak.
Before he killed them, Jake wanted to earn some points. Why would he pointlessly waste the potential of these humans? He could make them commit sins and then destroy this place.
‘I wonder where the protectors, the adventurers or knights of this town are?’ Jake thought. Well, he was pretty sure no one was above his rank. Even if they came, he would just kill them.
Jake took a deep breath first. He closed his eyes and opened them with a new, ruthless glint.
[Demonic Grasp]!
He stretched out his hand and suddenly pulled a young child. Grabbing the boy by his neck, he lifted him and shouted randomly, ”I will kill him!”
His extremely loud voice thundered throughout the ends of the town and people rushed to see what was happening. Jake’s act attracted over a hundred town dwellers in a minute.
”You, leave him!”
”Who are you?!”
Five men rushed to rescue the child at this moment.
Jake was disappointed that only so few people had come. Before continuing with his plan, he swatted the men with his free hand and spread the Degeneration Halo.
The moment he lost 75 points of mana, all people in a 100-feet radius simultaneously cried. The situation became chaotic as they fell down, holding their heads.
Jake felt a toll on his mind degenerating/corrupting these many people at once. Even his high mental attributes had their limits. However, he didn’t faint and could see the end result.
Once he was sure that he had depraved their minds, Jake gave out simple but extremely clever orders.
”All of you, rob anyone you see. Fuck each other, here and now.”
He threw the boy he was holding and walked on the street. Chaos started a moment later.
”Ack!”
”Hey, that’s my wife!”
”No, my pouch!”
Daughters began pulling their fathers’ pants down, grannies spread legs for their grandsons, children stole others’ money. Literal fuck started happening on the streets and inside the nearby houses.
Jake just walked.
His expression had a tinge of madness. Notifications began popping in his mind like corns on a frying pan.
[Ding! You have made another individual commit a lustful sin. You gain 12 Evil Points!]
[Ding! You have made another individual commit a greedy sin. You gain 33…]
[Ding! You have made another individual commit a lustful…]
[Ding! You have made another individual commit a greedy…]
[Ding! You…]
[D-Drring!…]
[Ding! Ding!…]
The notifications were endless. The more he heard them, the more his evil smile widened.
The commotion on the streets attracted other people and Jake spread his Degeneration Halo again. This time, he flew up and went to the market area. Taking out a high-grade mana crystal, he restored his mana.
Four uses of his skill drained more than half of his mana, so he had to be extravagant here. However, his gains were far more. It was a brilliant idea to come here.
Jake flew all over the town and used his skill. He knew degenerating these many people wouldn’t last long. His seeds of corruption didn’t have a permanent effect here. His mental powers were too thinned among so many targets.
However, Jake was only going to use them for a while. If the people somehow regained control of themselves, he’d just kill them. That was his primary purpose, after all.
Jake descended after degenerating almost half of the town’s population. Headaches troubled him as he walked again.
He saw fights happening all around. People were pillaging each other’s homes. Three middle-aged women r.a.p.e.d a 14-year-old boy. Pinned to the wall, a town girl moaned as her own brother pounded her.
In the midst of all this, Jake’s evil laughter echoed. ”Sin! Sin for me!”
At the gates of the town, Sapheisa kicked three guards with her tail. She held Ruxa by the back of her neck. The gorgon was trying to resist Jake’s seed of corruption, but with him coming closer, she was having trouble.
The lamia was sane. Jake’s halo didn’t have the same power it had because of corrupting so many people. But if he focused his Will on Sapheisa, her mind would also be depraved.
Other times, she would be happy to eat these free meals. However, this unknown black-robed man was too dangerous. She had to flee before that man reached here.
”Hiss…” She took out her long tongue and smelled the air. At this moment, Ruxa’s hair became long, and she began resisting.
The lamia tightened her grip and tore carriage with her transformed lower body. She slithered on the road and headed toward the exit.
Unfortunately for her, Jake caught that sight.
”Hmm? So they were the source of that faint mana…” His figure blurred as he ran toward the fleeing monsters.
”A lamia and a gorgon? How interesting… You’re quite good at hiding!” He appeared above her in a flash.
Sapheisa couldn’t even fight back as the suppressed seed in her mind erupted with power, taking control of her mind and successfully corrupting her. Ruxa, the gorgon, also succumbed to Jake’s will.
”Arrgghh!”
However, he suddenly held his head and crouched on the ground. A head-splitting pain attacked him. Jake found himself losing his will to do anything. At the same time, he felt himself getting dumber.
‘Not good!’
