Chapter 77: Two Talented Warriors
Seven Sins System Chapter 77. Two Talented Warriors
An exhale came out of my mouth.
'Well, it's worth a try. It doesn't hurt me anyway.' In addition, I could get extra souls to eat later or servants to help me do this and that. I could only hope the mortals didn't summon me for stupid things again.
The last time, a mortal summoned me not because he wanted to make a request, but because he wanted to defeat me. He and his friends attacked me and another lord of sin as if we had committed a big crime.
While all we did was answer their summons.
It turned out they were inspired by a famous fantasy book about a group of warriors who summoned the demon lords to destroy their malice power.
Since we didn't have real bodies, they couldn't attack us. But we could ony use our power to a certain extent. On the other hand, we couldn't kill them due to the agreement.
Finally, 'Sloth' and I accompanied them to play heroes by pretending to be in pain every time they attacked. We even attacked them with our lowest skills to make the battle look real. But of course, none of it hit them directly. And they looked so happy since they thought they had amazing agility.
Once we were bored, we ended them in one hit, warned that their souls would come to us directly after their death, and left them dying.
I could say it was kinda fun and I enjoyed it. Especially their frustrations when they realized that we were just playing with them.
Unfortunately, even with that bad example, that famous book had influenced many people. More summons came to me and the other demon lords. All of them requested the same thing. So we decided not to answer any summons until things calmed down. Once was fun but not like this. After all, we had a lot of work so we couldn't play with the mortals all the time.
'Well, but that was a long time ago. That book should be gone by now,' I thought. The modern mortals should be smarter.
Somehow all of this thought made me think of Red. She had also tried to summon me dozens of times. But I didn't answer her since I didn't want to take her soul. She was my servant so her body already belonged to me. The only thing that she could give was her soul and I didn't want to eat my own servant's soul.
Once my tentacles had finished their job, I unlocked the door, hid my tentacles, and ate my breakfast as usual. My gaze fell on the window and stared at it blankly.
It was the knocking sound and the sound of the door opening that broke my thoughts. Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.
"Morning, Dr. Allen." Katrina entered the infirmary with a schedule in her hand and walked to me.
"Morning," I replied, quickly getting up from my chair.
"Your schedule," she said, handing me the list.
"Before you go. May I ask you one thing?" I asked.
She turned to me.
"What is it?"
"About Miss Aria, is it true that she will move here because of me?"
"I don't think so. Her current contract is almost finished so she decided to move here to gain more experience. But she did say she chose this academy after watching your duel," she explained.
"So it's not because I've offended the paladin community, reputation, or something like that, right?" I made sure. I guessed it was just Theo's bluff.
She giggled.
"Let me guess. Did Theo tell you that?" she guessed.
"Who else?" I shrugged.
"There's no such thing as a paladin community. He just made it all up. The only one you hurt is his dignity," she reassured.
"I hope you can be patient with him since I don't want to lose two talented warriors like you and him." After ending it with a tap on my shoulder, she turned and left.
After the door closed, I spoke again.
"It all depends on him. But I'm not 'Patience' so don't put too much hope on me," I muttered.
