** Peter eventually calmed down... after a panicking [[BewareTheNiceOnes Mea]] stabbed him InTheBack with a woodcarving knife! Seeing [[TrueCompanions Abel]] getting a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown so suddenly made the NiceGirl act before the beatdown turned deadly! She was [[HeroicBSOD in a shock after that]] and [[CoolDownHug had to be calmed down by Abel]].

-->'''Peter''': “I-I did it! At last, at last, [[HijackingCthulhu I have the power of Kudor in my hand]]! From now on, I, the one who controls Kudor, the [[TheGodSlayer one who destroyed the four great creator gods]], will be [[AGodAmI the world’s god of law]]!”

* [[WellIntentionedExtremist Peter And Myunhi]] capturing [[BadassInDistress Abel]] and [[DamselInDistress Mea]] and taking them captives in Kudor's Cathedral. Abel did not see that coming, and now he and Mea are [[AdultFear helpless and in the mercy of two grown ruthless adults]], who tells them they'll have to [[TheyKnowTooMuch kill them because they are a liability]]. A [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome grim reminder]] that for all [[TheArchmage the magic]] and [[PersonOfMassDestruction power]] in Abel's hands, he's still a [[SkilledButNaive teenager with less experience]] on the lines people are willing to cross to get what they want.

They have not stated exactly what they will do to Mea when I counterattack, but they have kept it implied [[NothingIsScarier so that I can imagine it]], which increases the [[MotivatedByFear effect of the fetters]].\\

These guys should probably change their name from Levi Church to Levi’s Theater Company.

* Pictured here: Abel [[SleepDeprivation pulls an all-nighter]] carving the World Tree Totem. He finishes it, but he [[PostVictoryCollapse falls unconscious with a fever]]. He wakes up in ... his house's storeroom, BoundAndGagged, and everything he saw after his truck broke down was AllJustADream. And then, [[OhCrap Gizel comes]].

** In the same chapter after the nightmare, we cut to the real Gizel, who has shut herself in her and Abel's room after her failed BatmanGambit, holding one of her brother's carved Totems. She mutters some words, pulls a similar knife, then [[StabThePicture repeatedly stabs... the poor totem she was holding]] with a [[SanitySlippage nonchalant look on her face]]:

** Adding to the horror is the way they lure someone into going through the trial, like when [[SinisterMinister Nelgliffe]] decided to [[WouldHurtAChild kill Abel]]. He cleverly [[FrameUp frames]] Abel for stealing the ingredients and recipe for [[PanacEa the elixir Livglass]], destroying a part of a Levi's Church along with the their supply of Live Foggs (that Abel hunted for them), and [[WoundedGazelleGambit injuring him]], leaving him in a coma. He then has [[PersonalMook Chloe]] and Levi followers working under his orders accuse Abel of the crime, claiming there were witnesses (they are the witnesses), then give him a HopeSpot in form of [[AbominationAccusationAttack accusing him of being a demon]], to tempt him into going through the trial itself to [[OnlyGoodPeopleMayPass prove his innocence]]. Any attempt from Abel to defend himself or call on [[KangarooCourt how one-sided this accusation is]] is met with them accusing him of [[TheHeretic heresy and insulting their religion and priestess]], effectively putting him into a MortonsFork. When Abel sees "the sacred flame" in the day of the trial, realizes it is just a normal torch, [[GlamoUr decorated with magic to make it look sacred]]. When he calls them out on the trickery, this is how they respond:

** So as long as you're not a devil or a demon you'll be fine. Right? '''Wrong!! The trial and the flame are both rigged!'''. The '''real reason''' this penalty for abusing the Devil's Trial is so high is... to not compromise the credibilty of a ritual, that allows Levi's church to execute '''whomever they want, whenever they want''', [[TautologicalTemplar and pass it off as justice]]! As a result, only the higher-ups of Levi's church knows about this, meaning that no one passing the trial as the subject was already condemned to death to begin with. [[FridgeHorror How many people did Levi's church kill and had them passed off as devils to their loved ones?]] How many foolishly [[PlayAlongPrisoner sat there confident of their innocence]] waiting for the flame to pass them without harm, only to suddenly burn to death, and listen to the cheers of their friends as the "demon" [[CruelAndUnusualDeath dies in their last moments]]?

What's interesting is that only a portion of Levi's followers knows about the truth behind it, and are using it to MaintainTheLie in front of the [[GullibleLemmings rest of the followers]], making it more of a {{Cult}} than a ReligionOfEvil.

** Seeing how they didn't give Mea a choice, Abel tells them to buzz off and mind their own business. Gordon then decides to '[[UnnecessaryRoughness test him for qualification to be an adventurer]]', going on how he hates to bully the weak, but will play the bad guy to teach Abel a lesson as a senior. Then he adds that he'll not kill Abel, he'll just leave him battered he'll never be an adventurer again! NothingPersonal! [[HuntingAccident Accidents like these happens all the time to adventurers]]. [[spoiler: And to think that was them '''bluffing'''. [[FridgeHorror Were they actually going to carry out their threats]] had [[StrongerThanTheyLook Abel]] been not strong enough to defeat them?]]

* Some of the monsters explanations in the webnovel can remind the reader of how dangerous the life of an adventurer can be:

** '''[[OurGnomesAreWeirder Gnomes]]''': Known as 'Goblins that look like [[TheCutie adorable little girls]]'. Both female and male have a [[AlienGenderConfusion girlish appearance]], and like to [[HumanDisguise wear human clothes]]. [[CutenessProximity They may look cute]], but they are [[FakeCutie cruel and inhumane inside]]. It is said that there is no end to the number of pedophiles who enter dungeons [[TooDumbToLive to get a glimpse of them]], only to be beaten senseless by [[CuteAndPsycho innocent-looking, smiling gnomes]].

** '''Sufis''': A [[RatHorde Horde]] of RodentOfUnusualSize that attack in surprise ambushes, have HealingFactor, [[DeadlyScratch might carry germs]] necessitating the need for sterilizing magic. The female [[MoreDeadlyThanMale does everything]], ranging from defending the nest to defending pregnant females. And should you be splashed by blood of a male Sufi, the females will '''carry you to the nest to mate with you!!''' [[OutWithABang No one was carried to the nest and returned safely alive]].

And should you be splashed by blood of a male Sufi, the female will '''Carry you to the nest''' to mate you with!!

** '''[[OurGoblinsAreDifferent Goblins]]''': Not strong, but they grow fast and have a [[ExplosiveBreeder high reproductive capacity]]. In addition, [[LightNovel/GoblinSlayer they are intelligent, cunning, and cruel]]. Some dangerous goblins dig [[PitTrap PitTraps]] filled with [[SlippingIntoStink manure]]. Because they are born in places where the magic field is greatly distorted, there is a high probability that [[FromBadToWorse demons are lurking in the vicinity]] of goblins.
