Chapter 244: Misunderstanding
Seven Sins System Chapter 244. Misunderstanding
"Great. Since it's all settled, then---" I waved my hand dismissively, signaling for Asmo to leave my bathroom. I needed some alone time, and his constant presence was beginning to grate on my nerves.
But true to his nature, Asmo wasn't one to back down easily. His eyes sparkled with anticipation as he made his request. "I want my present now," he insisted, his voice dripping with impatience.
I let out an exasperated sigh, feeling the weight of annoyance settling on my shoulders. "Your birthday hasn't even arrived yet," I reminded him, my tone laced with frustration. It seemed that his eagerness to receive a gift had clouded his sense of time and reason.
He gave me a pleading look, his eyes wide and filled with a hint of desperation. "Please. I need this. I want to brag about it to Luci," he begged, mentioning the name of the lord of pride. Luci, the embodiment of vanity and self-importance.
Once again, my gaze met his, and I held it with a stoic expression. I contemplated his request for a few moments, weighing the potential benefits against the inconvenience of indulging his whims. It was a risky gamble, but perhaps giving Asmo his present early would bring a brief respite and a momentary peace of mind during my much-needed bath.
I let out a resigned sigh, conceding to his relentless persistence. "Fine," I relented, my voice laced with a mix of annoyance and resignation. "You can find it on my bedside table."
Asmo's eyes lit up with excitement, his expression shifting from pleading to elation in an instant. "Thanks!" With a flicker of dark energy, he activated his teleportation skill, transforming into a swirling aura of shadows that dissipated into thin air. In the blink of an eye, he vanished from the room, leaving me in solitude once again.
At last, I could relax again, sinking into the warm embrace of the luxurious bath. The water caressed my weary body, easing away the tension and weariness that clung to me.
As I reclined in the soothing water, my mind began to wander. A question nagged at the back of my mind, fueled by curiosity and a desire to understand the extent of my father's manipulations. Did he erase Asmo's memory of our conversation in the mortal realm? It was a puzzle I couldn't quite solve at that moment, and I decided to set it aside for the time being. There would be a time and place to unravel the secrets that lay hidden within my father's machinations.Witness the debut of this chapter, unveiled through Ñôv€l--B1n.
Without hesitation, I closed the gap and enveloped her in a tight embrace. My arms encircled her trembling form, offering solace and reassurance.
"It was a mistake, Ivy," I whispered, my voice laced with regret. "I didn't mean it. I thought you were Asmo, playing another one of his pranks, trying to bother me." I pressed my cheek against her hair, inhaling the scent of her, hoping to convey my sincerity through the simple act of holding her.
She clung to me. "It's okay, Your Highness," she stuttered between hiccups. "You just returned. I just wanted to be here for you, to serve you. But sometimes... sometimes it feels like I'm not enough."
