Chapter 913: Valefor's Outrage (2)
Valefor didn't have a single idea why the heavens were smiting the shit out of him. He had never even heard of such a situation.
That said, he did know something else that was related to heavenly punishment.
In fact, any Asura Law user would know about this particular heavenly punishment. It was punishment for the sin of killing.
Chaos was born out of the desire to preserve and continue life.
Thus, the act of killing and exterminating life was a sin that attracted bad karma, and accumulating great karmic sin would summon heavenly punishment periodically.
However, the Lord of Chaos also ruled over the heavens.
As such, everyone who comprehended the Asura Law was granted immunity from the heavenly punishment for accumulating great karmic sin. Only those who took countless lives without understanding the Asura Law would attract heavenly punishment.
Nevertheless, even if Valefor wasn't immune to the heavenly punishment of karmic sins, he still wasn't supposed to receive any.
After all, he may have retained his slaughter aura, but the countless lives he took in the original timeline no longer existed. Everyone killed by him was still alive. In other words, his karmic sins were undone.
He only possessed the slaughter aura without its associating karmic sins.
More importantly, the heavenly punishment for karmic sin wasn't supposed to be in the form of lightning.
The heavenly punishment for slaughtering lives without gain was a phenomenon where one's own karmic sin accumulation would transform into heavenly flames capable of burning the soul.
It was a heavenly punishment that only intended to inflict excruciating pain and torment the mind. In rare cases, karmic sinful beings would even use the heavenly punishment to temper their soul and will.
Such a heavenly punishment didn't have any frightful power of annihilation, unlike the current one bombarding him.
Valefor had no idea that he was being used as Vaan's meatshield.
Although most of Chaos no longer knew about it, the old heaven used to have two forms of lightning tribulations. One was to test and acknowledge, and the other was to destroy and eliminate.
