Seven Sins System

Seven Sins System Chapter 172. Hang Out With My Nemesis IV

Aria stood her ground with fierce eyes. With a swift and fluid motion, she waved her hand toward the demon. Answering her call, her sword flew towards that creature like a bullet. It struck out at the demon with deadly precision. The sword sliced through the air with a whistle, its trajectory true and steady. The demon shrieked in terror as the sword pierced his heart, spelling his doom.

The demon's body convulsed in pain, writhing in agony as it let out one final, anguished scream. His eyes closed and his breathing became shallow. The demon's body slowly dissipated into thin air, just like the previous demon. It was something that would only happen if an angel killed a demon and vice versa.

Carrying my role as a good friend of hers, I approached Aria. I didn't forget to show the worry on my face.

As I approached her, she called her sword back to her hand, and it disappeared once it reached her.

"Are you okay?" I asked, my voice filled with concern. My eyes scanned her body, checking for any wounds or injuries. "Should I heal you somewhere?" I asked again before she could answer me.

"I'm okay, Allen," she said, her voice steady and strong. "Rather than me, you should check on him," she added, pointing to the unconscious half-naked man without turning her gaze to him. "And make him wear his clothes after he wakes up," she added, her tone filled with a hint of disgust.

"Okay," I said, nodding my head in agreement. I went to the man, who was lying on the ground. I used my healing skill to revive him, my hands glowing with a soft blue light as I worked to mend his injuries.

While Aria checked the surroundings, her eyes scanned the area for any signs of danger. She knew that the battle wasn't over yet and that there could be other demons lurking in the shadows. I also realized that and could feel another demon's presence. It was a subtle demonic energy flow. But due to his low level, I couldn't detect his exact location.

A second later, as I finished healing him, I could feel a swift motion near me. But instead of coming from behind, it came from above me. My eyes instinctively looked up. Immediately, my eyes could catch a transparent figure gliding in the sky. He was so swift and every movement of his wings did not raise any wind or even sound at all.

I was about to use my barrier to protect myself, but then I realized that it would be too suspicious if I could detect the demon while Aria hadn't caught it yet. It would raise her suspicion. So, I decided to play along and let her experience guilt for not being able to detect the demon.

Simply, I pretended to be caught off guard, my eyes widening in shock as the demon descended upon me. And before she knew it, he had snatched me up and taken me away. I could feel the wind rushing past me as the demon soared through the sky, his wings flapping with a steady rhythm. My feet dangled in the air as I tried to free myself. It was just acting, of course. Yet my thought was different from my panicked expression.

'Ha… What a failed goddess,' I complained internally. I bet that was the main reason why she hadn't managed to solve this problem, although she has been here longer than me.

"Aria!" I called out her name, my voice filled with fear and desperation. "Aria, help me!"

She turned to me in shock, her eyes wide with surprise and fear. "Hold on!" she shouted.

With a swift and fluid motion, Aria summoned her sword and flew towards me. With a single movement, Aria was able to deliver a powerful blow with her sword, killing him in one strike. The demon let out a final anguished scream before he dissipated into thin air, dropping me from his grasp.

I fell.

At the same time, I could see Aria moving beneath me, and I knew that she was trying to catch me, but something was off.

Instead of catching me or using her Telekinesis to hold me, she just stood there, gazing at me with a blank expression on her face. Her eyes were wide open, and her mouth was slightly opened, staring at me like an idiot. It was as if she was in a trance.

My body fell toward her and bumped straight into her body before we landed on the ground with a thud.

"Ow..." I grunted though the fall wasn't enough to cause any real damage or hurt me. I tried to mimic a human's common reaction. Still, I couldn't understand why Aria had gone blank and failed to catch me.

"Thank you for saving me," I said, my voice filled with gratitude. I looked at her as she lay on the ground beneath me, her eyes fixed on me without blinking.

I frowned. A clear confusion etched on my face. In that instant, I knew that something wasn't right.

"Miss angel?" I asked. This time, it was my genuine reaction. I wondered if I hit her too hard and damaged her head. "Are you okay?" I asked again.

She answered me by blinking her eyes a couple of times as if she had just woken up from hypnosis before letting out her words. "I'm okay. It's just…" Her words trailed off. Instead, I could see a clear emotion in her eyes.

"Just what?" I asked her to continue.

She responded with a bitter smile. Again, she placed her palm against my cheek. "Nothing." Then what happened next made me even more confused. Without further ado, she put her arms around my body and hugged me tightly, pulling my body against hers. I could feel her heartbeat against her chest.

'Huh?' I was so confused and shocked to the point I didn't know how to react. I did want to make her feel guilty, but this, was clearly not how a guilty person would react. This was more like… a deep longing for her beloved one.
