Chapter 295: Past And Present
Seven Sins System Chapter 295. Past And Present
Azrael's PoV
I stared at the glowing thread wrapped around my wrist, my heart pounding as realization washed over me. "Thread of fate..." I muttered under my breath, the words a mix of wonder and uncertainty. My Analyze skill had given me a glimpse into the nature of this thread, revealing more than just its ethereal glow.
The description on my system was, this thread was a manifestation of an encounter that had taken place ages ago, an encounter that had left a lasting impression on the couple it bound. It was a connection forged in the depths of history, a bond that defied the passage of time. And in this case, the description hinted at the special thread being linked to an immortal like me, while the other end of the thread belonged to another immortal. There was only one person that could refer to: Aria.
I closed my eyes. Aria and I, our fates were intertwined for reasons that stretched back centuries. The thought was both exhilarating and daunting.
My mind churned with thoughts. A memory floated to the surface—a memory from an age long past. "Will you be my friend forever?" I had asked her back then, my voice laced with genuine curiosity. I remembered how she had looked at me with those bright eyes, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips as she nodded and said yes.
Forever, a word that held more weight than she had realized. It was the term we used to create a contract with a devil like me. It was a binding agreement, a pact sealed in loyalty. And now, as I looked at the thread that connected, it all made sense.
Aria, or perhaps the person she had been in the past—Riri—had agreed to be my friend forever. It was this very promise, this pact, that had triggered the manifestation of this thread of fate. The encounter had left an indelible mark on us.
All those thoughts swirling in my head were just conjecture, mere analysis on my part since I lacked the concrete truth. I couldn't afford to be careless with this information, not when the stakes were so high. I glanced at the glowing thread around my wrist, my mind still whirring with possibilities and uncertainties. "This is very ironic..." I mumbled to myself, my voice tinged with a mixture of bemusement and irony.
As I watched, the thread seemed to fade, its luminous presence dimming as if it were slipping away. But I knew better than to think it was truly gone. The thread of fate was not something that could be so easily severed or discarded. It was merely hidden, obscured from sight but still very much a part of the intricate tapestry that governed my lives.
Aria's response was immediate, her words coming out in a rush. "Because isn't that the way it should be?"
I crossed my arms, a playful grin tugging at the corner of my lips. "Well, I live alone. I can wear whatever I want," I retorted, the grin turning into a full-fledged smirk. "You're the one who showed up all of a sudden, after all."
Aria's blush deepened, and I couldn't help but chuckle at her flustered state. It was rare to see her caught off guard like this, and the sight was oddly endearing.
