Chapter 239: Something In My Body
Seven Sins System Chapter 239. Something In My Body
Evie's nervous smile lingered on her lips as she contemplated her words, her eyes darting from one person to another. Her admission about her hypothetical actions, while somewhat unsettling, held a strange truth to it. I couldn't deny the peculiar allure of possessing such powers, even if it meant crossing boundaries of personal privacy.
"I mean, if I had the power like her, I would probably do the same thing as her, or maybe worse," she confessed, her voice tinged with a mixture of curiosity and self-consciousness. She quickly cringed, realizing the implications of her statement, and averted her gaze to the side. "Uh, like, watching you sleep, for example," she added, her voice trailing off uncertainty.
My eyes widened, and I couldn't help but let out a nervous chuckle. "Seriously? That's what you would do?" I asked incredulously, shaking my head in disbelief. The thought of someone silently observing me while I slept sent shivers down my spine.
Evie's cheeks flushed, and she fidgeted with her fingers. "Well... I mean, it's not like I actually want to do it. It's just, you know, a hypothetical situation," she mumbled, her voice barely audible.
Shaking my head in amusement, I redirected the conversation back to its initial focus. "Anyway, let's get back to Puriel," I interjected, trying to steer the conversation away from my sleeping habits. "As much as I appreciate your insights and theories, I highly doubt Puriel has that kind of feelings for me."Witness the debut of this chapter, unveiled through Ñôv€l--B1n.
Doubts, however, crept into my mind, fueled by the uncertainty surrounding Puriel's recent behavior. Had I been too quick to dismiss the possibility? My heart quickened its pace, and an unsettling chill crawled up my spine. Was there a hidden motive behind her actions that I had failed to recognize?
Sensing my internal struggle, my dad spoke up, his voice carrying a note of understanding. "I can see your doubts, Azrael," he said, his gaze meeting mine with a mix of reassurance and concern.
"Whatever the case, I need to regain my strength. Puriel and I stay in the same academy, and she has grown attached to me. I played the role of her friend, trying to gather information about the light realm. But sooner or later, she'll discover who I truly am," I explained, my voice laced with a hint of frustration.
As I reflected on our interactions, another worry gnawed at the back of my mind. Puriel's mention of her unstable strength during our initial encounter lingered like an unsolved puzzle. I couldn't decipher its meaning, but I knew that having my powers intact was crucial to prevent any unforeseen consequences.
My father, sensing my unease, took a deep breath and spoke up, his voice filled with reassurance. "Don't worry, Azrael. I've prepared everything," he assured me, though a hint of objection was present in his tone.
A bitter chuckle escaped my lips. "So, you want me to face an unknown enemy?" I scoffed, a tinge of frustration evident in my voice.
"The enemy you face in the trial is none other than yourself," he explained, his tone serious. "You must possess mental fortitude and maturity to confront it head-on."
I rolled my eyes, a mix of annoyance and exasperation washing over me. "Dad, I'm over five hundred years old, remember?" I reminded him, my patience wearing thin.
"This has nothing to do with your age, Azrael," my father clarified, his voice carrying a note of seriousness. "It's about your ability to become the master of your emotions and your body, to wield control over your very being."
I furrowed my brows, puzzled by his enigmatic statement. "What do you mean?" I inquired, my curiosity piqued. A surge of apprehension washed over me as I considered the possibilities. "Is there something else within my body?" I ventured another guess, my mind racing to connect the dots. And then, like a lightning bolt of realization, it hit me. "Is this connected to that 'Ancient One' entity?" I blurted out, unable to contain my thoughts.
