Pride, greed, lust, envy, wrath, sloth, gluttony. These are the things our nation has tried to absolve. A hundred years ago, after we had been overtaken by crime and chaos, our government implemented the mineral Sianson into our water supply. Since then, people have been unable to act on their sins except for on one day out of their lifetimes. For one 24 hour period, people can commit as much crime as they want with no consequences. This is what makes our society function. When the other nations died out, this was our way of preservation. This is how we've survived.
There have been mistakes though, there are always mistakes. These mistakes are called Heathen and I am one of them.

The Hell Lord's Prize
Book V of the Seven Sins Series "It's ironic, your name," the demon lord says, staring at me with his familiar, cold look. "It's an angel's name." I don't respond right away, because he's already snapped once when I spoke out of turn. "Have you nothing to say?" he asks, indirectly giving me permission to speak. I shrug. "I don't get why you have any interest in my name. You rarely call me by it." "Slaves don't deserve names." I hold back from speaking for a brief second, before I open my mouth once again. "So why the sudden interest in my name if I'm just a slave and don't deserve it?" I demand, almost nervous that he's going to react badly because I definitely spoke out of turn. "Because your name is ironic and humorous. How is it that an innocent boy with the name of an angel ends up as the slave to the worst demon in existence?" book cover done by @ishanwadhwa123 !!!!Complete
