Chapter 290: Unexpected Guest I

Seven Sins System Chapter 290. Unexpected Guest I

I spent my time for the rest of my vacation at the palace before I returned to the mortal world. I didn't forget to bring some jewelry for my ladies. I chose the neutral ones, something I picked up from the mortal realm long ago over anything I made or anything from the shadow realm.

As for the power-up potion, I postponed my intention since I couldn't get some of the ingredients. Of course, I was referring to the ingredients that come from the mortal and light realms, since I already got what I need from the shadow realm easily with my status and my power. Yeah, the most terrible place for demons was in the light realm after all.

We came back on Sunday evening and of course, we didn't come back together. Claire, Rachel, and Evie returned to the academy first. Julia returned to the academy two hours later. And I was back at midnight.

With a heavy sigh, I trudged towards the imposing gates of the academy, a worn bag slung casually over my shoulder. I had perfected the art of appearing fatigued, my expression a masterful portrayal of someone who had just concluded a long and arduous journey. But the truth was, my weariness wasn't entirely an act. I couldn't deny the slight drag in my steps as I had to leave my luxury behind.

My gaze flickered across the bustling campus, registering the movements of students and faculty members. A polite smile was offered here and there, a customary acknowledgment of my presence, yet my tired façade remained unchanged. The bag on my shoulder felt heavier with every passing moment.

I finally reached my dormitory. Fumbling with the key, I unlocked the door, and as I stepped inside, I flicked on the light switch. Little did I expect the shock that awaited me – Aria's presence almost made me emit an undignified yelp.

Thankfully, I managed to stifle the sound that threatened to escape my lips. There she stood, her form elegantly poised near my desk, her fingers gliding almost affectionately over its surface.

"Oh, you came back earlier than I anticipated," she declared with a playful smirk, her gaze flitting to meet mine.

A surge of bewilderment mingled with annoyance rippled through me. My eyes narrowed, studying her with an intensity that demanded answers. With a swift movement, I closed the door behind me, my footsteps carrying me closer to her.

"What are you doing in my room?" I questioned, my voice a mixture of incredulity and something that resembled the edge of panic. My brows knit together in a formidable frown. I could almost sense her motives – the very idea that she might have taken advantage of my absence to pry into my personal space made my guard rise.

"Yeah, you could say that," she responded, her tone a blend of exasperation and resignation. "We had a run-in with some rowdy demons, and as if that wasn't enough, a bunch of crazies decided it was a perfect time for an attack right at the academy gate."

'Wait, does that have anything to do with the cult and Gem?' I wondered, the mental cogs turning as I tried to make sense of the situation.

My hands moved with a purposeful rhythm, tidying and arranging my belongings, yet my mind was anything but orderly.
