Chapter 330: Join The Cult?

Seven Sins System Chapter 330. Join The Cult?

I sighed, realizing that I needed to provide some explanation to the trio since they had been in the yard this morning during the encounter with John and Aria. I didn't want them to become entangled in the dangerous web of the cult or whatever else was going on.

John had been after me, not them, and I wanted to keep it that way. If the cult and John had any nefarious plans, they should be directed at me and Puriel, not them.

However, there was no escaping the fact that I needed to clarify a few things, especially my connection with Puriel. With a frown, I started to explain. "I didn't throw Julia away," I asserted firmly.

Barry, with his laid-back demeanor, casually opened his paper bag and dug into his ham and cheese sandwich, continuing the conversation without missing a beat. "Well, you sounded like that this morning," Barry said, his shoulders lifting in a nonchalant shrug. "You hugged that paladin in the yard and seemed very close. You even kissed her," he reminded me, his mouth half-full as he chewed.

Darren, sitting beside him, jumped into the conversation, popping open his to-go container of macaroni and cheese. "Must we remind you? You previously told us that you didn't know her," he pointed out, the confusion evident in his voice as he spooned some of the pasta into his mouth.

Barry then turned to his friends, his eyes lighting up with a newfound realization. "Guys, I think that's why Miss Aria made that fanfic!" he exclaimed, a look of revelation on his face as though he'd just cracked a major case wide open.

"Oh, that makes sense!" Ion chimed in eagerly, his eyes wide with realization as he took a bite of his pizza, starting from the crust as if it were a ritual.

Darren's disappointment was evident as he spoke. "You lied to us. So cruel," he stated, his gaze fixed on me.

I let out an exasperated huff. Leaning back in my chair, I sought to explain. "I told you this is not what it seems," I asserted. "I honestly didn't recognize her. It was only when we met that I finally put the pieces together," I explained, hoping to clarify the situation.

Attempting to regain their trust, I reiterated, "You know I never dug into that and never cared about it," reminding them that my encounters with the paladin hadn't been premeditated or calculated.

My initial reaction was to raise an eyebrow, baffled at the suggestion. I facepalmed.

Join the cult? An accomplice? Seriously? I was no one's lackey or minion!
