Somewhere in an unknown place...

A man wearing a black robe with red fur on its collar. On the back of the robe was a symbol of red-eye. This was the symbol of the Deadly Sins, one of the bringers of calamity.

The man had an average height and his built was average too in terms of humans scale. His hair was messy and it had the color of a chestnut. His brown eyes were looking outside the land, observing the movements of every creature that was living in this place. He had thin facial hairs. It seems that he didn't even care about it.

It was dark and the room didn't have any light but the moon shone as if to give him vision in the land that he was observing. The cold breeze of the night blew on his face making him frown.

He stretched out his hand and pick a piece of meat from the table beside him. He quickly placed it inside his mouth and started to chew on it.

He was one of the upper echelons, nine-circle, and the seven deadly sins. He was called Esquin Georagnisus, the Gluttony sin of the seven deadly sins. The word gluttony brought terror in the whole world. Not just this world but thousands of sub-worlds knew what gluttony meant.

Esquin was one of the seven most powerful people in their organization. The man that brought fear to gods and deities.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door of his room.

Knock! Knock!

"Enter..." Esquin said in a deep tone. Even without looking around he already knew that the person on the door was his subordinates. His power and senses were above the norm.

A man wearing the same black robe entered the room. He bowed towards Esquin as a sign of respect towards the high deadly sin. Even though he was a powerful seven-circle officer, he still didn't dare to stand in front of the deadly sin. Their status and power were different. The deadly sin was like a god.

He lifted up his head and saw that his lord was looking outside the window. He still didn't receive the permission to speak so he didn't dare to utter a single word or else he would die.

"Hmm..." Esquin slightly turned his head and looked back. "Speak." He gave his permission to his subordinate.

"Lord, the group of six-circle officers that were task to get the bloodstone failed their mission." The seven-circle officer said with a careful expression.

"Hmm...? They failed?" Esquin turned around and looked into his subordinate's eyes.

"Yes, my lord." The seven-circle officer nodded and he gulped with a nervous expression.

"I see... I guess that some large countries discovered them and annihilated them, am I right?" Esquin picked another piece of meat on the table and ate it.

"Yes, my lord." The seven-circle officer nodded his head.

"Those people are arrogant and they believe that our organization is the strongest... I ordered them to move quietly but what did they do? They failed miserably at the cost of their lives. If our organization is the strongest like they thought then we wouldn't need to hide." Esquin said with a sigh. Even he, one of the strongest people in the Deadly Sins, didn't dare to fight those large countries openly especially the three great countries of the Giza continent.

He knew that even if their organization could fight one of the great countries, those people would gather people from other countries to fight them. It means that any large countries would unite together just to bring the Deadly Sin down.

"It's not the time to fight them in an all-out war. We still need to observe the happenings in the other continent especially the Demon's land. The demons are gathering their armies at the moment. It seems that they will make a move this time." Esquin muttered in a low voice before he turned around.
