‘Over twenty thousand points! That is enough to spin the roulette two times!’ Jake thought. Wasting no time, he pulled up the status panel and scrolled down.
[Sinner’s Roulette (Available, Requires 10,000 Evil Points to spin again)]
There it was. This time it wasn’t gray but of the same dark color. Jake clicked it and a dark red disk appeared in his sight. This time, he could catch sight of the various intricate letters on it. It was like a pie chart with seven, even sections. Only one, the lust, was red. All others were black.
Jake anticipatedly clicked on the disk and it started spinning after it rang. It took over five seconds for it to stop this time and the result was to his liking.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have unlocked the Sin of Greed!]
The section opposite gluttony changed colors and became red. His Evil Points decreased to 16,000. Jake didn’t feel any different from before. However, there was some type of notification on the top right corner of his status page. Before checking it, he glanced at the roulette and couldn’t help but shout.
”What the fuck?!”
[Sinner’s Roulette (Unavailable, Requires 100,000 Evil Points to spin again)]
Did the system become greedy because he unlocked Greed? Jake had this thought, but soon dismissed it. After some thinking, he realized that with 2 Sins unlocked; it was really too easy to accumulate 10,000 points now. So, the difficulty increased. It would take some time to get that many Evil Points.
‘Does it multiply by a factor of ten with every sin unlocked? Interesting…’ Jake thought, and opened the notification.
[Congratulations on unlocking your second skill, host. The system has updated the guide with the information relevant to the Sin of Greed.]
[For this sin, only by doing something greedy can you gain Evil Points. Examples include stealing someone’s possessions, refusing to give any share in a mutually owned scenario, hoarding everything for oneself, or anything that can be rooted back to one’s greed. The more sinful the act, the more Evil Points you gain.]
The first thought that came to Jake’s mind after reading through all of that was taking everything in this village for himself. However, as he had already exposed himself a lot, he decided to consider this matter.
‘I could just steal every man’s wife and take them for myself… Lust plus Greed combined, that would give me double points!’ Jake thought, getting back to Yahul’s home.
After an hour of careful thinking, Jake decided to conquer this very village and expand the territory of his dungeon. However, he wasn’t sure that he could do that with his current strength. He was only a 2nd Circle demon with little experience. Sure he might get more points by acting greedy here, but he couldn’t buy combat mastery with those, only skills.
Speaking of Evil Points, he still had over fifteen thousand remaining. He had planned to save them at first, but knowing that he couldn’t unlock his third sin soon, he decided to use them all to empower himself. Yes, he could do much more to his dungeon with it, but Jake was confident that he could amass that much by the time he returned.
Thus, before he slept, he first scrolled through the shop and used his points carefully. After analyzing his fight with that mercenary guard, he invested in where he was lacking. That meant new skills and increases in stats.
This took him nearly two hours, but it was worth the effort. Jake’s overall strength had at least doubled. If he fought Hog now, Jake was sure he could defeat that mercenary spearman within a minute!
Before his eyes shut, Jake looked at his status panel.

…
The next day, he woke up early along with Elena. The first thing she did after waking up was to go pee.
She had known about everything yesterday from Yahul’s mother. However, after having sex with Jake, she didn’t want to take anyone else as her husband.
“I’d rather be your concubine than his wife!” Elena said in front of all the people in Yahul’s home.
Actually, she had never wanted to be caged in this village all her life. After spending time in Orlando, she wanted a better lifestyle. It was only because of her family’s pressure that she had become like that.
However, after Jake thoroughly pounded her, she woke up to find herself changed. She desired to leave this village and go with this strong adventurer.
Jake thought for a moment and decided to take Elena into his harem. She would only be wasted with someone like Yahul.
Speaking of that guy, he should just kill him and end his misery. And another thing, he had most likely impregnated all nine of them yesterday. Leaving Elena, Rose, Niru and Vin, he erased the other’s memories of that orgy. They would only know that they bore his children way later.
However, Jake didn’t care. He was going to be the daddy of thousands of babies. These nine were just the lucky first batch. This village was soon going to be his territory and they would be under his protection, so it was alright. As for the other four, he would take them to his dungeon because, well… they gave him the greatest pleasure.
‘I think it’s time for me to leave this place now. My goal was to get Evil Points which went well. I’ve even unlocked the Sin of Greed. This was more fruitful than I’d expected…’
About 4 days had passed since he left the dungeon. Jake had told Lena and Erin that he’d return in less than a week, but he wasn’t sure if he could do that.
The nearest town from here was Rustfall, which would take another day to reach. Jake wanted to go with the merchants there at first. However, things didn’t go the way he wanted.
Leaving the house, Jake went to find Yahul. However, when he reached near Rose’s Inn, which was of course closed, he sensed a strong mana signature in the air.
Six unfamiliar people were standing outside the inn’s entrance. Two women and four men. Jake turned his head toward one orange-robed man with a wand on his right hand.
This man was a 2nd Circle mage, and he was also looking at Jake with interest. He had sensed the magical powers Jake’s mana core emitted.
‘Adventurers?’ Jake thought as he squinted.
