"Oh? You've noticed us, huh? As expected of the Great Velmora Empire—you really are impressive."
A man in a black cloak and mask stepped through the gate.
He was tall and muscular, but his face was hidden behind the mask, and his body was shrouded in the cloak, leaving his true appearance a mystery.
Luke stared at him, frozen in shock.
"You… are you the Sixth Cardinal, Gluttony?" he exclaimed, horror evident in his voice.
In the hierarchy of the Underworld Gate, there were seven cardinals: Wrath, Envy, Greed, Sloth, Lust, Pride, and Gluttony.
Years ago, the Great Velmora Empire had waged a brutal war against that heretical cult, and it was the cardinals who had spilled the most blood of the imperial army.
Luke remembered killing one of them—the Cardinal of Envy.
The battle had been far from easy, especially since he had spent three days in a coma afterward.
