Chapter 649 Reason for the Fight

Chapter 649 Reason for the Fight

?"""""""...WHAT THE FUCK?!"""""""

While everyone else was wondering why Evan had just suddenly stopped the fight, the two deadly sin siblings had different reactions.

"Why am I not surprised?"

Greed shook his head as he spoke, having expected something out-of-pocket to happen ever since the moment when Pride stopped him from breaking up their fight.

Evan ignored everyone else's reactions, even Leviah's, as he teleported right in front of Pride and asked.

"You got all the data you want?"

"Yep."

The two high-fived each other after that short interaction, and this was enough for everyone in the room to realise that the whole fight they just witnessed was a scheme between Evan and Pride.

"I've already developed a few counters for some of them." Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

"That so?"

"Yeah. But that 'Stout Guardian' is going to be tricky to handle...I don't have anything that can destroy that thing.

There's also the fact that the shield may be regenerative."

When Pride expressed her concerns, Evan nodded in affirmation, confirming that the shield was indeed regenerative as far as the energy consumed at the skill activation was not used up.

"Ah, that one."

He pulled up information from his memories of the game and then proceeded to explain its weaknesses to Pride.

"This one is weak to 'Piercing Damage'.

I got 'Pierce Guard' so It's not gonna be a problem for me, you need to use something like 'this'..."

Evan pulled out the Akashic Page and flipped through the grimoire, stopping on a particular spell page as he continued.

"It's a Metal Magic Spell."

"Metal Magic? It's been a while since I've used that."

Pride held up her hand and began drawing in ambient magic power, quickly conjuring a replica of the spell circle in the book Evan was holding.

"Hmm...this is going to take me a few tri-Oh, I got it."

Just like that, Pride learnt the spell and the Tier 2 magic circle appeared in her hands. She read the chant in her mind and after a few tweaks, the spell circle gained an extra ring around it.

"You did something, didn't you?"

She turned her red eyes to Evan who only shrugged and replied.

"Our contract is a two-way thing. Just as you can influence me with it, so can I do you."

With that line, Pride understood how she was able to quickly replicate the spell circle in the book.

"...do you even understand what you just asked me? Who in their sane mind would not avoid being slashed with a spear?"

"You SHOULD not!"

Leviah was about to charge towards Pride once more when Greed appeared behind her and slipped his arms under her armpit to hold her back.

"Let me at her! I need to smack her in the head at least once!"

"Now, now, dear sister. You need to calm down."

Somehow, Greed was able to calm Leviah down and get her to put away her weapon, before moving her to the other end of the area where the group was standing; as far away from Pride as possible.

It just so happened to be beside where David was standing and when she looked at him, the woman's eyes widened in shock.

"There were two of them?!"

"Hmm? Oh, yeah. He's the Fifth."

"Fifth? The one who likes messing with our spells? Damn."

Leviah's face scrunched up when she looked at David, and his two sisters stood in front of him protectively, sending the woman glares that told her 'not to get any ideas'.

She wasn't crazy though, especially with Kolvar present.

"Fourth's in another country, and guess what? She has Venus."

"...you gotta be fucking kidding me."

"Oh no, I'm not fucking kidding you sister."

Leviah sighed deeply when she heard Greed's reply, her shoulders drooping slightly. Seeing that she was relatively calm now, Greed decided to break the most important part of the news to her.

"On the bright side, we're not going to be on the receiving end of those abilities. That's some good news."

The woman looked up at Greed when he spoke, and then turned her gaze back to Pride and Evan, clicking her tongue lightly in the process.

"So, we're on the same side as the Heroes who stuffed us into our weapons after Alvey's brat literally backstabbed us?"

"..."

Leviah's casual words were an eyeopener for Dandeyr, Kara, Malaya and Selah who were not in the know about the fact that the Seven Deadly Sins were not defeated by the Seven Heroes before their sealing, but betrayed by their own kind.

The Seven Heroes changed up the 'truths' to make it seem like they had sealed the Deadly Sins after a tough battle, leaving aside the part where they were beaten black and blue by the Seven Siblings.

"For Starters, it was Elder Sister's idea.

Arlan's successor has some sort of extra deal with Artemisia that pits him against Alvey's brat and we also need to beat the shit out of Alvey's brat, so why not join up with him?"

Greed calmly explained the reasoning behind the decision to join forces with a hero, while Leviah was silently wondering when the man was going to let go of her.

It was then, that Evan decided to chip in with a little bit of 'spoilers' for the future.

"You still gotta defeat your 'Inferiors' though, just gonna leave that bit of information out there."

The boy slowly stepped back after speaking, but he didn't get very far as Pride and Greed flashed in beside him and grabbed both his arms.

"Start talking, now."
