Chapter 284: Cruel Game I
Seven Sins System Chapter 284. Cruel Game I
A triumphant grin stretched across my face as I gleefully declared, "That's one point for me!" The words tumbled out with buoyant energy. I raised my glass, savoring the taste before placing it back on the table. Swiftly, I reached for another marble.
My target awaited, the symbol gleaming with an almost mocking challenge. The soul trembled before me, his eyes a window into the terror that gripped him. The pleas, the cries, the desperation—it was a symphony of fear, one that underscored the stakes of this ethereal contest.
"Please no..." His voice was a mere whisper, a desperate plea for mercy that was as futile as it was expected. The hole in his stomach, a consequence of my previous shot, bore mute testimony to the impact of the marbles. It was a surreal sight—the gaping wound and the wall beyond it. There was pain etched on his features, but it was the kind that reached far beyond the physical.
With a practiced hand, I aimed the marble with unerring accuracy, my gaze locked on the target that symbolized more than a mere score.
The marble found its mark. His hand. The impact was swift and precise, a piercing blow that elicited a guttural scream from the soul. The agony was a tangible presence.
With a muttered resolve, I reached for another marble. "One more," the words slipped out in a quiet murmur.
Aiming with precision honed by countless repetitions, I directed the marble at the heart symbol.
The soul's gaze met mine for an instant, and in that fleeting connection, I saw the desperation, the plea for mercy. But this was a dance set in motion long before this moment.
The marble was released. The room seemed to hold its breath as the marble found its mark, and in that heartbeat, the tapestry of the soul's existence unraveled.
The soul's screams reverberated off the walls. I watched as the girls instinctively covered their ears, their expressions contorted with a mixture of discomfort and disbelief. Well, everyone except Ivy and Lily.
Lily's expression twisted into a grimace, and she couldn't help but voice her discontent. "I don't get it... why do they like this?" The incredulity in her voice was palpable.
I couldn't help but chuckle, my amusement mirroring Luci's sentiment. "Please let me go he said," I added, my tone a playful mimicry of the soul's desperate entreaty. It was hard not to find a dark humor in this macabre setting, surrounded by the souls of those condemned to the shadow realm, each begging for clemency that was forever out of reach.
My lips curved into a half-smile as I leaned back in my seat, my gaze locked on the trembling soul before us. "You're dead and in the shadow realm, pal," I retorted, my words sharp with a chilling finality. "You will not be able to commit any sin and have nowhere to go but accept your punishment."
The soul's desperation seemed to intensify, its cries a crescendo of fear and anguish that reverberated in the space between us. "No... Please no. Stop. Just don't hurt me," it begged, its voice a haunting echo of its torment.
Luci's derisive smirk remained firmly in place, his tone unyielding as he responded to the soul's pleas. "You're asking the impossible," he sneered, his words a stark reminder of the inescapable nature of its suffering.
With a deliberate flourish, Luci raised the marble in his hand, his intent unmistakable as he aimed it at the soul. His words were laced with dark amusement, chilling anticipation for what was to come. "Now..." Luci's voice held a sinister edge, his words a taunting dare that echoed through the room. "Give me a good scream!"
