Chapter 238: Priceless


    Seven Sins System Chapter 238. Priceless


    I closed my palm, canceling the dark aura that enveloped my hand. Raising my hand, I flicked my wrist in a fluid motion, invoking my telekinesis abilities once more. As if responding to mymand, the summoning formation from John went up, hovering before us.


    "See?" I said, my voiceced with frustration. I couldn''t help but shake my head in disbelief. "I don''t understand how they could pull this off without us noticing."


    Diablo furrowed his brow as he took the paper. His eyes scanned the contents, his confusion palpable. "I don''t get it," he muttered under his breath, the lines on his forehead deepening. It was clear that he was grappling with the same questions that gued us all. How could they have infiltrated our summoning formations without detection? How had they managed to manipte our essence?


    For a moment, the room fell into a heavy silence, broken only by the sound of rustling paper as Diablo ced it back on the table. The weight of his unspoken words hung in the air, leaving me anxious for answers. It was as if he held a secret that he wasn''t yet ready to reveal.


    Frustration gnawed at my insides, making it difficult to stay patient. "Do you know anything, Dad?" I asked, my voice tinged with a mixture of curiosity and impatience. I needed to understand, to make sense of the chaos that threatened our realm.


    "I will investigate this further," he replied, his tone firm. I couldn''t help but feel a tinge of disappointment at his response. I had hoped for more immediate answers.


    "You should stop hiding things from me," I asserted, my voiceced with seriousness. I held his gaze, determined to break through his defensive facade.


    He turned to me, his expression morphing into a mixture of annoyance and displeasure. "Do I appear to be hiding something?" he shot back, challenging my usation.


    I shrugged, meeting his gaze unwaveringly. "With you, one can never be too sure," I retorted, not willing to back down.


    He let out a frustrated sigh, his eyes searching mine for any sign of relenting. "This is not the time for jokes, Azrael," he admonished, his voice tinged with exasperation. "If I uncover anything significant, I promise I will share it with you."


    I grumbled under my breath, but I knew that pushing him further at this moment would yield no results. It was clear that my father was holding back, keeping his cards close to his chest. But I decided to let it slide. Or rather I didn''t have the power to make him spill the beans. Maybe I could force himter, after my seven sins power grew.


    "Puriel," he suddenly said, his voice filled with intrigue. "What about her?"


    I let out a long exhale, trying to gather my thoughts. "If I said she just gave me a gift yesterday, would you believe it?" I asked, my voiceced with skepticism.


    The room fell silent as my words hung in the air, leaving an air of disbelief and confusion. Lily''s eyes widened, clearly not expecting such a revtion. My dad, on the other hand, wore a mocking smirk, his disbelief evident in his tone.


    "The world will soon be torn apart if she does! That''s a good joke," he scoffed, his words dripping with cynicism.


    Theirughter filled the room, but I remained stoic, my expression unyielding. I knew how absurd it sounded, even to my own ears. Yet, I had experienced it firsthand, and no amount ofughter could erase the truth of what had transpired.


    "But Azrael was telling the truth," ire interjected, her voice cutting through theughter.


    Their attention shifted to ire, their expressions turning serious. She stood her ground, her eyes filled with determination.


    "She gave it to him in front of me. It was me who made her think it was his birthday," ire revealed, her voice steady.


    Diablo turned to me, his eyes wide with disbelief. "You''re not kidding?" he asked, seeking confirmation.


    I rolled my eyes, frustration was evident in my voice. "No, I''m not kidding," I replied, my toneced with annoyance. I couldn''t me them for their skepticism though. I mean, it did sound like a ridiculous lie.


    Curiosity flickered in Lily''s eyes as she leaned forward. "What did she give you?" she asked, her voice filled with genuine interest.


    I sighed, meeting her gaze. "Holy Water," I stated bluntly.


    A moment of silence hung in the air, broken only by the sound of their collective gasps. Then,ughter erupted from the trio, echoing through the room like a symphony of amusement.


    Lily, struggling to catch her breath between fits ofughter, managed to squeeze out a few words. "She gave Holy Water to a devil? That''s priceless!" she eximed, herughter still lingering in her voice.


    Diablo, clutching his stomach as tears streamed down his face, chimed in, his voice trembling with mirth. "This is the funniest joke I''ve ever heard in my life!" he dered, barely able to speak amidst his uncontrobleughter.


    Even Ivy couldn''t help but crack a smile. "I have to admit, that''s the most unexpected turn of events," she admitted, her voiceced with amusement.


    I sat there, my lips pressed into a thin line, my irritation simmering beneath the surface. They were mocking me, finding humor in a situation that held a deeper significance. But I couldn''t me them entirely. After all, it did sound like the setup for aedy sketch.


    With a dry smile, I finally spoke up, my annoyance seeping into my voice. "d to provide you all with endless entertainment," I remarked sarcastically, my wordsced with a hint of frustration.


    After a while, theirughter began to subside, and they cleared their throats, trying to regain theirposure. The room fell into a momentary lull, the air thick with anticipation as their attention shifted back to me.


    Diablo, wiping tears ofughter from his eyes, leaned forward, his expression curious. "Okay, so your rtionship with Puriel seems fine. Why did you say she suspects you?" he inquired, a note of genuine concern underlying his words.


    I took a deep breath, feeling the weight of their gazes upon me. "Well, she has snooped around my room on multiple asions," I exined, my voice tinged with a mix of frustration and worry.


    Lily''s eyes widened, her brows furrowing in disbelief. "Wait, she''s been going through your stuff?" she eximed, her voice filled with indignation on my behalf.


    I nodded in agreement. "Exactly! It''s not just a simple case of curiosity. It feels like she''s trying to find something," I borated, my frustration evident in my tone.


    Evie, who had been rtively quiet until now, suddenly spoke up, her voice hesitant. "Um, could it be that... maybe she has feelings for you?" she suggested, her words causing a collective pause in the conversation.
