Seven Sins System Chapter 52. This Is A Duel, Not A...

'Seriously, what's wrong with mortals?' I thought. I cringed so hard internally to the point I struggled to maintain my composure when I shifted my gaze to one of the projector crystals.

They zoomed in on me. Okay, they zoomed my naked torso and my face to be precise . The sweat from the heat covered my body as if it were covered by a thin layer of oil. The breeze swept over my body, ruffled my hair, and made my shirt sway.

I could hear them calling my name, cheering at me as if I was a hero. And judging by their voices, most of them were girls.

"Dr. Allen! Dr. Allen! Dr. Allen!"

"Oh my God! He's so hot!"

"Look at those abs!"

Correction, they were cheering at me as if I was a stripper. Not a hero.

'For my father's sake! It's only a fucking abs, not boobies! This is a duel, not a strip show!' I complained internally. But somehow I could keep my cool.

"Right, we should continue our fight." Theo's voice made me turn to him and realize he was taking off his shirt.

I held my cringe as best as I could. A frown on my forehead.

"Why did you suddenly take off your clothes?" I asked spontaneously.

He tossed his shirt to the side and raised his chin a bit, showing his arrogant expression clearly.

"It's a bit hot here," he said as he made some gym poses to show off his muscles.

I knew he just wanted to show off.

Still... 'What the hell?! This is a fucking duel!'

The crystal projection was fixed on him, showing him on the big screen. Once he realized he was getting the attention, Theo posed more eagerly.

Unfortunately, the audience's screams and applause were not as loud as before.

I looked at him with a flat stare and took a deep breath.

I gave him another devilish smirk. Even though I didn't say a word, my gaze had said my mockery clearly. 'Is all that you got?'

A second later, he came back to his feet and threw a high kick at me. I retreated a couple of steps to dodge it, but he spun around and kicked me again. This time, I caught his leg, pulled him, and punched his neck.

*Cough* *Cough* *Cough*

Theo coughed.

[You have hit a lizardman for 63 HP.]

Before he could fight back, I grabbed his neck and slammed his back against the ground.

[You have hit a lizardman for 54 HP.]

[Your opponent has lost consciousness.]

The impact on his head knocked him out even though his HP was still more than 50%. I retreated to distance myself from him, showing the others that he couldn't continue the duel anymore.

[Congratulations! You have completed the side quest!]

[You have earned 1 quest point]

[Your Sloth point has gone up by 50]

[50/1000 Sloth]

Seeing Theo who didn't move from the ground, cheers and applause resounded from the audience seats. They competed to shout my name, hoping for my attention. I was sure 'Pride' and 'Envy' would be so jealous if they saw this.

I smirked proudly and raised my hand to end this duel before I turned around and walked toward Julia who was already waiting for me.

But a female voice from the speaker stopped me. It was Katrina's voice.

"Congratulations on your victory, Dr. Allen. Please don't forget to bring Theo to the infirmary."

Spontaneously, I turned around. My smirk faded in an instant. My jaw dropped.

'Are you kidding me?!' I screamed internally.
