"So what we need is more substance then?" I asked. "If dividing it causes problems, let"s simply pump up the two halves with more "ma.s.s", here."


I summoned something out of my Item box, despite being within a Realm of the Mind, it seemed to work just fine. An Item I had acquired a while ago, when I had just been summoned inside of Grand Terra and fought the Demon Lords of that world, who were fervently obedient towards the Demon King.


That d.a.m.ned Demon King, I had yet to get back at him, just you wait.


But for now…


"What is that item?" wondered Satan.


"GRRHHH?" Wrath, which seemed clearly angered because we had split him into two for me and Mammon, was also curious.


"That"s… a Sin of Wrath?" Asked Mammon. "Amazing, where did you get this, Kireina? Is it from Genesis? But I thought you were only injected with a Lesser Sin of Gluttony that you slowly developed?"


"Yeah, this one"s different. I acquired it in the world I was summoned to… Or well, reincarnated to? Well, you know, where Luminous, Elfina, and the rest of the gang I came with came from." I explained. "This is the [Wrath of the Demon Lord]!"


What was floating over the palm of my hand was a ma.s.s of red flames and blood, gathered in the shape of a beating heart, with two black horns and a mask stuck to it, in the shape of a furious demon.


"Every Demon Lord of that world possessed a Sin of sorts, when I killed them, I gained their Sin as a special item. I am sure they are not comparable to the Primordial Sin, but just like you said, they are copies, or lesser versions that existed in another world." I said. "Perhaps they could be of some help?"


"GRRRHHH…" Wrath quickly extended its countless heads towards me, opening its lion jaws and devouring the [Wrath of the Demon Lord] instantly.


CRUNCH!


"Gulp…"


Wrath devoured the Wrath of the Demon Lord faster than we expected, even the Satan here was shocked, as he looked at the gigantic demonic beast.


"Y-You ate it really quickly, huh?" Satan sighed.


FLAs.h.!.+


And almost a split second later, Wrath began glowing, his size suddenly growing several times larger than before, black and red light surging from his ever-growing body almost endlessly!


So it worked at the end!


Once Wrath finished its transformation, its amorphous, chimeric form took a more elegant appearance. Less heads, less limbs, much larger, with red and black fur growing through its body. It even had a long tail with three serpent heads.


"GRRH! ROOAR!" Wrath roared. It felt like it had grown slightly healthier. It looked down at the two of us with a glance of approval.


"Um, so?" Mammon asked.


"It seems he"s really satisfied." Satan laughed. "With this it might be possible to share the Sin"s powers but reduced. Though, I am wondering, why did you split the powers you gained from me? Well, the real me?"


"Ah, well, I wanted Mammon to take care of the Layer of Wrath, I wasn"t going to take on that responsibility myself." I shrugged. "Also the more he expands his authority, the better, right?"


"I suppose that tells you everything." Mammon sighed. "I would have just let her eat it all, but she wanted me to carry the burden of being an Archdemon of two Layers now…"


"Fufu, what"s wrong? I bet you"re still happy, aren"t you? Hm?" I hugged his hips with my arm. "Aren"t you~?"


"W-Well, I am grateful…" He blushed adorably.


"You two are quite something." Sighed Satan"s records. "Now, Wrath, what is your verdict?"


"GRRRHH!" Wrath gave a loud roar, and then nodded.


"He seems to approve of it." Satan said. "Now, the last step, and the step the real me had to go through… It is to seek your truest, and biggest wrath. What scene or point in your life brought you such anger and frustration, as to become worthy of carrying the Crown of Wrath?"


Wrath walked towards us within this strange landscape of darkness and flames, glaring at us with its many crimson eyes, and then reading our memories.


Countless of my own memories flashed through my mind, constantly and almost endlessly. I had so many memories stored inside of my head.


Yet the one memory that would make me worth of carrying Wrath, without a doubt…


It was when they took Scarlet from me, and used her to create a gate, using my daughter as a tool.


I thought it might have been the rage and anger I felt when my sisters killed me and cursed me with millions of reincarnations.


But no, it was this fairly recent moment. I don"t think I"ve felt so angry through all my life than when this happened.


I had become so furious I ferociously killed the Outer G.o.ds one after another, completely unhinged.


"That rage… that wrath… It was not related with your own personal frustrations, but because someone took a precious child from you… Amusing. This kind of wrath, it is sweeter, and much tastier than what Satan ever experienced."


"Kireina, your wrath is gentle, slow, and it waves constantly, sometimes becoming an endless tsunami that consumes everything. And other times, it is calm and calculative. A perfect vessel. You are worthy of carrying the Crown of Wrath."


I heard Wrath speaking for the first time, and perhaps the last time, as I suddenly opened my eyes, I was back inside of Greed"s Layer. Mammon at my side was also awakened. It felt like almost no time had pa.s.sed since we went there.


"W-We pa.s.sed I think." I said.


"Yes… Ugh, that d.a.m.ned memory, I didn"t want to remember something like that again." Mammon sighed.


"What did it made you remember?" I asked him.


"It"s… Well, it happened on the first years of my existence as a Fallen Angel, when I was lost within the endless depths of the Chaotic h.e.l.l, before it fully a.s.sembled into seven layers." Mammon sighed. "You know that The One used a hundred different worlds as the base of this Dimension"s creation?"


"W-What?! I had no idea!" I gasped.


"Yeah, I guessed as much. I"ll tell you more later." Mammon said, looking slightly sad. "There"s still a lot of the Wrath Demons left, let"s quickly tell them to turn back."


"Alright." I nodded.
