Seven Sins System Chapter 54. Another Guest

Instead of Ion, it was Barry who answered me.

"Meh. Just ignore those unrelatable cons. Some people don't want to admit that other people can do better than them. Some like to spit their fire for no reason and think everyone who disagrees with them is his punch bag. Some have severe trust issues." He started talking like a wise man.

I had to admit, Barry was right. But that was not what I meant.

"What I mean, I'm not used to this kind of attention. So I can't make any comments," I explained.

Well, on the good side, I didn't use any skills that could blow up my disguise and fought like a pro combat doctor.

Okay, an expert-level combat doctor, I guess... Since combat doctors usually only put their concentration on their healing skills. They rarely sharpened their fighting skills and had much lower strength compared to DPS and tanks. While their ability was more akin to a mage.

Some combat doctors had attacking skills like a mage but it was usually only enough to protect themselves from low-level monsters. For sure, they were usually weak against melee fighters and paladins. But, I should be fine with what I had written on my resume.

"Look at the bright side, doc. With this, you could tell all the combat doctors that they are not just support classes. They can fight, and even defeat other classes. That's really cool!" Barry cheered me up and started raising his voice.

"Not to mention you have announced your value to others. I bet other academies will try to recruit you. You can use that to ask the chairwoman to increase your salary." Ions added. A proud grin appeared on his face. "I'm smart, right?" he said proudly.

"If you get it, just don't forget to treat us," teased Barry, poking his elbow at me.

"You little rascal," I joked.

Which was followed by our laughter.

"Shut up!" Theo's voice interrupted our jokes.

It made us press our lips and turned to him. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l-B1n.

"Is the infirmary always noisy like this? Or has this place turned into Team 8's meeting place ?" said Theo in a displeased tone. His expression also showed the same thing.

"Oh, you're awake," I said calmly. Just as I thought, he was just pretending.

I got up from my seat, walked over to him, and checked him out. Well, I pretended to check on him to be exact since I knew he was fine.

"Hey, he couldn't even land a single blow on me," I protested.

"Here I thought, an angel has possessed his body and changed his personality," Barry joked.

Which was followed by Ion's laugh.

This time I was not laughing with them, but shuddering in disgust.

'Ew... I better kill myself than being possessed by an angel,' I thought. On second thought, I didn't think they could possess me either.

In the middle of their laughter, Barry turned to the clock.

"Oops! Our last class is almost starting." He quickly stood up from his seat. Likewise with Ion.

"Later, doc!" said Ion, turning to the exit.

"Don't be late for your training, okay. Arena 02 as usual," I reminded them.

"Got it!" replied Barry. While Ion gave me a thumbs up.

Then they left.

I turned around and continued my work again. But a few seconds later, the sound of the door came again. I sighed and turned around.

"Did you forget something?" I guessed it was either Ion or Barry or maybe, both of them.

But I was wrong.

My sight caught a female bunny demi-human mage bowed in guilt.

"Good afternoon, Dr. Allen. May we talk for a minute?" she said in a stammering voice.

Even though I had only met her once, I recognized her immediately. That mage was Theo's team member. The one who cast her fire spell on yesterday's mission.
