Beneath the dark waters of the Pacific Ocean, David Vexley swam silently, slicing through the cold current alongside Isabella Rossi and Sly. The three of them wore black tactical diving suits that blended with the ocean's darkness. Ahead of them, the hull of Mammon's giant ship emitted a horrifying golden-yellow glow.That ship was not just a vehicle. It was a floating palace that defied all laws of sanity. Fused with the solid gold plating of the hull were giant white pillars made from the bones of ancient creatures. Curving ribs served as deck supports, and a massive skull served as the ship's bow. A fusion of absolute wealth and death.Suddenly, a circular airlock at the bottom of the hull rotated and opened with a soft hiss. Air bubbles escaped from within. Leviathan had completed her task.David led them swimming into the ship's filtration room. Once the hatch closed and the water drained completely, they removed their breathing apparatuses."Good jo

The terrifying sound of a heartbeat echoed from the bottom of the mountain of millions of gold coins. A heavy, slow thumping, as if a giant machine had just been restarted. The golden statue of Isabella behind David vibrated slightly, emitting a metallic grinding sound that set teeth on edge."Boss, do you hear that?" Sly shrieked, his face deathly pale. The bald man backed away slowly toward the exit, his legs trembling. "That crazy god isn't dead! Let's get out of here before he gets up!""Guard that door, Sly! Don't let anyone in!" David commanded without turning around. His voice boomed, filled with undeniable authority."But Boss, the pile of coins is moving!" Sly protested in a panic."I said guard the door!" David barked. "Or I'll throw you into the sea myself!"David paid no attention to the mountain of gold beginning to shift in the center of the room. His focus remained entirely on the thick book bound in human skin in his hands. The Ledg

The roar of the maddened engine grew louder, drowning out Leviathan's laughter and the boiling rumble deep within the Mammon Dragon's throat. David, his vision rapidly dimming, could only stare helplessly toward the outer corridor that opened directly into the dark ocean waters.BOOM!The ship's hull, forged from solid gold plates and ancient bones, shattered into pieces. An armored military speedboat tore through the breached wall, went airborne, and violently crashed into the mountain of gold coins right between Mammon and David. Seawater flooded into the treasure room, creating a massive cloud of thick steam the moment it made contact with the scorching liquid gold.Mammon's blast of golden fire missed, striking the ceiling of the ship instead, the dragon startled by the sudden, violent collision.Leviathan hissed in anger, feeling the tremor that broke her concentration. Who dared to interrupt her soul harvest?From behind the thick steam and t

The room finally fell silent. Only the sound of David's heavy breathing, the creak of machinery from Robert's steel joints, and the hiss of cooling liquid gold on the shattered marble floor remained. Two sins had submitted tonight. Five more remained.David turned around. The shadow wings on his back slowly shrank and disappeared back into the pores of his skin, leaving his perfectly restored human form. He twisted the gold Greed Ring he had just slipped onto his right index finger. The object felt cold, yet it radiated absolute authority.Across the puddle of Mammon's golden blood, Robert Gable stood stiffly. The pale human half of his face twitched, while the red optical eye on his left side blinked, focusing its gaze on David.The steam-powered hydraulic cannon on the former police sergeant's left arm hissed sharply. Slowly, Robert raised the heavy weapon and aimed it squarely at David's chest."Don't think I did that to save you, David," Robert growle

"One more step, David," Leviathan threatened, her voice trembling with terror yet mixed with pure hatred. "One more step, and I will plunge this into your successor's heart. Let's see if your two god rings can bring him back to life."David froze in the doorway. His heart pounded loudly, but he kept his expression as cold as ice. He knew Leviathan's speed. Even though David possessed Avatar speed and Telekinesis, the distance between the spearhead and little Arthur's chest was only a few millimeters. A single muscle twitch from Leviathan was enough to end his son's life."You are bluffing, Leviathan," David said softly, suppressing his purple aura to avoid triggering the monster's panic. "If you kill him, I will obliterate you until your smallest particles can never reincarnate. Let him go, and I will let you leave.""LIAR!" Leviathan shrieked. Her melting face alternated rapidly between Elena's crying face and Isabella's angry face. "You never let your enemies
