3 It Is Hell

First of all, the man in front only said that he had eaten people and did not describe the process. The woman seemed to be very pitiful and innocent. She was not necessarily wrong. According to the law, both of them were guilty and the man who was punished previously was also guilty. The question was, how should they be judged? What was the basis of this?

After thinking about it for a moment, there was still no answer. Weiss saw that Elena was still sobbing beside him. Was she really going to be punished? Could he really punish this deskmate of his? He pressed down these doubts. There were two others. He might as well listen to them.

With this thought in mind, Weiss looked at the other three people.

A man in a military uniform suddenly stood up and walked towards the confessional as if he could not stand the oppressive atmosphere.

After a little while, the priest's voice came from the confessional.

"Believer, what crime have you committed?"

"I've been serving the country my whole life. The only people I've let down are those brothers who died in battle. I didn't take good care of their families. Their families are missing. They might have been kidnapped by hostile organizations."

The priest chuckled meaningfully.

"You did speak of your sins. The Lord will forgive you."

With that, they both walked out. The man walked straight back to his seat. The priest did nothing else.

"There's only the two of you left. One of you can come."

With that, he ignored them and walked back to the confessional.

Elena looked at Weiss with pleading eyes but when she saw Weiss's helpless expression, her eyes dimmed.

Without a word, she walked into the confessional.

The priest's gentle words came.

"Lost Lamb, ask the Lord for forgiveness and repent from the bottom of your heart."

"I didn't do anything wrong. When my mother gave birth to me, she died in childbirth. My father also hated me. What did I do wrong?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a series of cries sounded.

Weiss was surprised. Elena was so innocent. How did she get in here? Was she the innocent one?

The priest's gentle voice could be heard.

"Think about it carefully. There will always be one."

Elena whispered in a sobbing voice,

"Is it because my best friend committed suicide by jumping off a building? I only spoke a few words to her boyfriend."

Weiss had also heard about that incident. A female high school student had jumped down from a tall building. In the end, the case was left unsolved. It turned out that it had something to do with Elena.

"Alright, you can leave now."

They walked out of the confessional side by side. Elena was still crying.

Weiss began to think back to everyone's conversation. There was no clue. It was as if everyone had their own reasons. There were a lot of missing details and a lot of them simply weren't worth mulling over.

For example, the suicide case that Elena mentioned, there were many areas that were not clear at all. The police had closed the case quickly. Thinking about Elena's identity, it could not withstand any scrutiny.

Weiss looked around and saw some murals on the stools around him. There were six of them. One was a demon holding a child and gnawing on it. The other was two demons flirting, like…

The Seven Deadly Sins!

Weiss suddenly realized. Everyone had something similar to the contents of these seven major sins but there were some details that needed to be carefully analyzed. Which crime Elena corresponded to? There were also people that didn't match at all. He was an invader and shouldn't be included in these six people so there must be something that he had missed.

However, he could only ask for the details. At the thought of this, he saw the priest smiling at him.

"I have some questions. Can you wait for me to finish asking before going in to repent? My esteemed priest."

The priest was a little surprised but it wasn't against the rules, so he waved.

"You only have ten minutes."

Seeing that he was so reasonable, Weiss couldn't help but be surprised. But now was not the time to dwell on that. He had to quickly figure out what he didn't understand.

He went first to where the man had been dragged. There was nothing on the floor but a pool of blood and an old marriage certificate soaked in blood. It must have been the man's name, Michael Sun Tobias and a woman's name, Toby Judith.

Seeing this, Weiss was a little surprised. He had seen this name before. A few years ago, the marriage partner of the daughter of the richest man in the country seemed to have this name but the daughter of the richest man did not seem to have this name.

The sequence of a story formed in his mind.

The first man corresponded to laziness. Secondly, the miner corresponded to gluttony. Thirdly, the woman corresponded to jealousy. Fourth, the soldier…

What did a soldier correspond to? Weiss was a little confused. According to what the soldier said, he should not have committed any crime.

Thinking of this, he walked to the soldier and asked,

"Hello, Mr. Soldier. I would like to ask if you were the only one who survived?"

The soldier got impatient.

"Why are you asking so many questions? I'm the only one who survived. Are you satisfied?"

Weiss had some doubts but he couldn't ask the details now.

If nothing went wrong, a soldier should be greedy.

The fifth was Elena, although somewhat reluctant to think that way was probably lust.

There were still two people left. He looked at the monster in the darkness. There seemed to be a few repetitive alphabet sounds coming: L, K, I.

Could monsters be considered humans?

"Ten minutes is up!" The priest did not give Weiss any more time to think. He shouted angrily in the confessional.

"Father, I don't need to repent. I know how to be forgiven."

The priest came out of the confessional and said in a disgruntled tone.

"Only the Father in Heaven can talk about forgiveness. You're just a piece of trash, how would you know about forgiveness? Hurry up and repent or what awaits you in hell will be endless torment."

Weiss sneered.

"Haven't you been on trial here, Father?" He said. The church was torn open and a towering mountain shrouded in divine light rose up from behind the priest. Angels danced among them, singing the Lord's name and passing on the Lord's praise. On the highest peak of the mountain, two archangels flanked the throne as if waiting for someone to arrive. A staircase of light extended from his feet to the throne. Weiss stepped heavily onto the steps and finally sat on the throne.

The people in the church were terrified and anxious. The black-robed priest was even more nervous. The monster was also squirming restlessly.

Weiss was high on the throne and Michael the Archangel put on his crown for him. Gabriel handed him his cane. Weiss was overwhelmed. The power within him told him that he was omnipotent. At this moment, he was like God. He was almost intoxicated by this omnipotent pleasure. But then he realized that he was in a dream. He couldn't help but feel a little regret. Then he looked into the church and an imperious voice resounded.

"The trial begins now."
