Chapter 319: Weird Relationship
Seven Sins System Chapter 319. Weird Relationship
Aria's determined gaze remained fixed on me. "She needs it more than I do, you know!" She sounded somewhat exasperated, as if my apparent lack of empathy frustrated her.
My cringe factor escalated further. "Right. Whatever," I replied in an offhand manner, turning away from her and ambling toward my bed. It was becoming increasingly evident that she would be left to fend for herself until her next paycheck rolled in.
"Since everything has settled..." I continued, pausing for a moment as I reached my bed. "You can go back to your room now. I have work to do this morning," I added, gesturing toward the exit to signal that our conversation had come to an end, at least for now.
Without a word, Aria swiftly used her teleportation skill, vanishing from my room. I couldn't help but be taken aback. 'Oh, she obeyed,' I thought to myself in surprise. That was certainly good news, considering the rather heated exchange we'd had earlier.
I fell onto the bed and couldn't help but drift into contemplation. My mind pondered the consequences of the relationship between a devil and a goddess. The very idea of us, two opposing forces, entwined, made me shiver in disgust.
I knew our union could potentially challenge or even disrupt the balance of this world. I wondered about the repercussions, the turmoil that might ensue. After all, my mere existence already a problem.
With the potent power of the legendary demon coursing through my veins, I was akin to a ticking time bomb, an unpredictable entity that could detonate at any given moment.
But yeah, I wouldn't say no for a business cooperation.
'I'll think about it later,' I thought as I closed my eyes.

The morning light filtered through the curtains. With my usual routine, I rose from my bed and geared up for my daily exercise. This time, however, there was a change in the air. Since our identities were now laid bare, there was no need to avoid each other anymore.
With a sense of liberation, I opted for a run in the yard instead of heading to the gym. I pounded the familiar path beneath my feet, my thoughts wandered, and I couldn't help but anticipate our encounter. It wasn't long before our paths converged, the rhythmic thud of our footsteps syncing together as we jogged side by side.
Aria broke the silence with a polite but pointed greeting.
"Morning, Dr. Allen," she emphasized at 'Dr.Allen' words, her tone carrying a subtle challenge.
"It's you who should stop making arbitrary assumptions," I retorted.
As we were locked in a heated exchange, John suddenly approached us.
"Morning, you two," he said with a friendly grin.
Aria and I both jumped in surprise. We greeted him back with a somewhat flustered. "Morning."
To my astonishment, Aria quickly snuggled up to me, linking her arm through mine. She was putting on quite a show, pretending to be enamored with me. I shot her a sideways glance but decided to play along for now.
