    Maybe they can, Temperance's divinity did respond to an old oath. Also Luxuria's deliberate choice of words a while ago when talking about Castitas was very strange. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

    But if they do bring back the virtues, won't the paradisians stop worshipping the sins??
    I don't think it's gonna happen..

    Why would they? The ones who saved them were the sins, not the virtues. If anything they could worship both. Plus, if the sins were that weak for not being worshipped before (assuming that's true, I don't remember) they wouldn't have been able to interfere in any way in the first place and Paradise would be long lost, so even If they lose followers (which doesn't make much sense given all they did) it wouldn't be that big a deal.

    People who get their power from the gods they serve, exhibit tendencies toward the sin that god represent as they become stronger.

    I don't think that many people would worship virtues to gain power just to restrict themselves and live a moral and upright life when they could indulge in their desires with worshipping sins.

    I also wonder if the The Virtues and Sins are two sides of the same divine being. I've always found it suspicious that the Sins just showed up out of nowhere after the Virtues fell... I forget which chapter Luxuria was talking about Chastity, but something seemed off to me when she was talking about Chastity.

    Also the fact that the Executor of Luxuria is also supposedly a virgin... well not what you'd expect from the person who most syncs up with lust.

    damn, sad story for the fallen angels. although i guess its their fault for forcefully summoning people to fight their battles. its always interesting to see how mc's in novels are viewed by different characters that arent right next to the mc such as this chapter with the previous novels mc

    In chapter 225 Luxuria mentions that she is the twin sister of Castitas so it is likely that each sin is twin brother/sister to each virtue.
    After Seo Yuhui is attacked in chapter 197 someone close to her mentions to seol that if he comes near her, she might get a seizure due to his yang energy, this is likely due to the tendencies given to her by Luxuria.

    What u r telling true but that's the case for earthlings ryt...
    Except for a few ppl like Teresa who took the royal oath.. Paradisians don't seem to get any power from the gods..
    Anyways as sins are the ones who protected them, they might not abandon them..

    So...

    excerpt from a certain chapter:

    This naturally referred to Sung Shihyun. As far as Seol Jihu was aware, Sung Shihyun was the past Executor of Gula, the Star of Gluttony.

    No surprises there.
    We already knew he was under Gula due to his class name, and being on the same team as Yuhui and Jaehu - both level 8 despite the absence for a while - he was sure to be at least level 7. Since we heard of no Executor of Gula so far it wasn’t that hard to guess.

    Also, wtf Gula, that shitbag Sung Shihyun was alright for being a Executor, but past Seol wasn’t, even after he was full time trying to save Paradise and over his gambling issues?

    I always wonder if the temple is empty when he goes inside. No priests freaking out over the way he throws tantrems

    i imagine theres like a room leading to the room the statue is in, and no one goes inside while someone else is using it. although in this case with the lightning im sure they noticed lol, but considering its gula maybe its the norm for them

    Kinda sad that Temperance's divinity can't be absorbed by humans..
    I was hoping Soel to become a existence equivalent to Sung Shihyun or Twisted Kindness..

    I expect Seol and co to make a treasure hunt the to parasite territory, since Flone mentioned his grandpa hid a ton of offerings full with divine power in the second location.

    If we look at it in terms of how they affect paradise, they probably look at it favorably. Addicts are more likely to benefit Paradise compared to those who are only there for gains to bring back to Earth or those who run at the first sign of danger.

    While I suppose they may feel regret for some earthlings killing themselves afterwards, they don't exactly have leeway to concern themselves with everyone
