[The [Night Vision:Lv1] has been fused with [Night Vision:Lv3] into [Night Vision:Lv4].
'What? What is going on?'
I asked, confused, as I stood up and sat down.
[The host succeeds in preying on the [Lesser Poisonous Rat].
'So I did not die in the end! Hahaha.'
I laughed, relieved.
I felt as if a weight had been lifted from my shoulders.
While I was relaxing, I asked [Global Wisdom] to explain what happened.
'What happened while I was unconscious!'
[Before the host passed out, the host was able to activate the [Unique Skill: Sin Of Gluttony] and prey on the Lesser Poisonous Rat.]
'I see; then did the skill save me?'
[Negative]
'What!? What do you mean by negative?'
[The one that saved you was actually the rat skills.]
'I'm understanding even less; can you give me a clear explanation!'
[Do you want a description of the skill [Sin Of Gluttony?]
'Please do!'
...

It is difficult, almost impossible, to satisfy your hunger.

...
'So basically I got saved by the [Poison Resistance] the rat had.'
[Affirmative]
'You advised me to use [Sin Of Gluttony] to get more poison resistance, right?'
[Affirmative, with a higher resistance, the host was able to nullify the status effect [Poisoned: Lv7].
'I see.'
After I listened to the explanation of the situation I was in,
by [Global Wisdom], I was left speechless.
Literally, I have a skill that allows me to grow stronger just by eating.
This is broken, but I have this weird feeling of bitterness in my mouth.
'Ei [Global Wisdom], can you tell me what this strange bitterness in my mouth is?'
[The host must explain himself better for me to understand.]
'Like, you know, before I was reincarnated, I died from poison, and this new life was going to
end the same way.'
[This is because the host is weak.]
'Weak, eh?'
[...?]
'Now that I think about it, I got betrayed because I was too weak, and I almost died against the weakest monster. In this dungeon... I want to get stronger, strong enough to not have to care about anything anymore. [Global Wisdom] Will you help me to achieve my goal?'
[Of course]
'Then let's start. Ah, let's first go out of this dungeon.'
[I strongly recommend the host not to do that for the moment.]
'Why so?'
[Due to the fact that the host is a fallen angel, the moment you go out of
the dungeon, the gods will be aware of your existence, and they will instantly try to kill you.]
[I recommend the host to go further down the dungeon to make it difficult for the gods
to identify the host.]
'I understand... So let's train while we move down then.'
After clearing my mind, I did not hesitate to start my adventure to grow strong.
This is my second life; I don't know if I will get another one.
This is my chance to get my revenge against the gods for my past life of misfortune, and I won't let it go.
.
.
.
Somewhere deep in the dungeon, in a hidden room, a being is resting.
"Somebody is inside the dungeon!? How is this possible? I wonder whether it is an angel or a demon.
Or maybe Big Sis is back!?
Well, either way, I'll find it out."
.
.
.
Meanwhile, in another part of the dungeon, in a dark and ruined church, a priest was praying.
in front of a statue of an unknown goddess.
"Oh, my goddess, please tell me when our savior will come to free us."
"It has already been millennia since the Church of Light began erasing us.
How much longer should we wait?! If this situation continues, we are all going to die.
We are desperate; please answer my question, my goddess."
I was on the verge of tears because the goddess never replied to our prayers.
As I stood up to leave, however, an answer came.
The church, from a dark black, unexpectedly became tinged with a fiery red.
And a divine voice spoke to me.
{You don't have to wait any longer; my daughter is already here.}
After the voice stopped talking, the church turned back to its original color, and I fell on my knees in tears.
filled with new hope.
